Quotes & Notes - Timbers: 1, FC Dallas: 1, March 17, 2012
Quotes: Portland Timbers at FC Dallas
Portland Timbers Quotes
Head Coach John Spencer
General thoughts on the game:
"We dominated for a long period of time in the second half. The difference between the first half and the second half was that we started to believe in ourselves. We started to play a little more up tempo, but then I also think our guys got a little fatigued at the end."
Thoughts on the season so far:
"It has been a good start to the season. We played two quality teams and if our guys believe in themselves as much as me and my coaches do, we'll make it to playoffs."
Goalkeeper Troy Perkins
General thoughts on the match:
"The last 15 minutes of the first half we really started getting possession and momentum for us. We had a lot of chances on goal and maybe on a better day it goes our way. The second half with the wind at our back, especially with that kind of wind, it helps. You are able to get out of your own half with a long ball."
Midfielder Darlington Nagbe
General thoughts on the game:
"Everyone came out with a lot of energy. It's as simple as that. The first half we didn't have as much energy. When we play with energy, we play well as a team. We had more energy the second half. Guys were buzzing around a little bit more after the first 30 minutes. We just came out there with more energy with them and we controlled the game."
On the goal:
"I just saw the ball go up while I was dropping back. Once it hit the other team I knew I was onsides, so then I just tried to finish. I was in the right place at the right time. It was nothing special. There was no one in front of me it was just me and the goalie."
Midfielder Eric Alexander
On the team this year:
"The focus is a little higher [than last year] as well as our belief in each other. We have a talented group of guys who can get it done on the road. There are still better games to come."
On the season so far:
"We took four points from teams that made the playoffs last year, so we're pretty happy. It would have been nice to win. It's a good result for being on the road."
FC Dallas Quotes
Head coach Shellas Hyndman
General thoughts on the game:
"I felt we started off well, thought the first 20-25 minutes we did a lot of things right. Ricardo (Villar) was getting a lot of touches on the ball. At halftime we talked about how Portland would try to add a little more steam and play rough. It was a good result for us considering we were without three of our most important attacking phase players: Fabian Castillo, Brek Shea and David Ferreira. I was really pleased with the effort the boys put in. I was very happy we fought all the way to the last second."
Thoughts on the second half:
"I just think we are very thin right now. I didn't want to put a player late in the game and have him try and get into the rhythm of the game. That is why we only used one substitution."
Midfielder Bryan Leyva
On the shot that led to Blas' goal:
"I was running forward and I saw Carlos [Rodriguez] was going to cross it early. Since the field was wet, I knew there was a chance the ball might slip and come back to the second post. I was able to get there. I shot it first time across and really thought it was going to go in because the field was wet and it was bouncing. Fortunately, the keeper saved it towards Blas [Perez] and he put it away."
Midfielder Andrew Jacobson
General thoughts on the game:
"It was a tough game. They are a much-improved team, especially on the road. They have a lot of athleticism. They know what they do well and they come in and do it. They make things difficult. I don't think we had our best game. We played a little bit into them and started playing their game a little bit, but we were missing some big players and we needed other guys to step up. There's a lot to take away from that for sure. Guys worked really hard. Everyone gave their all and no matter what happens, that's something that will drive you throughout the season because you're not going to play well every game."
The Timbers earned their first road point of the season in their first away match of 2012. Last season, it took the Timbers three road games to earn their first road point, coming in a 1-1 draw at New England on April 2, 2011.
Dating back to 2011, the Timbers are unbeaten in their last four road fixtures, posting a 1-0-3 mark in those contests, and have earned points in five their last six road games.
The Timbers have already matched their point total from last season from games in which they trailed at halftime on the road. In 2011, the Timbers were 0-7-1 when trailing opponents at the break on the road.
Goalkeeper Troy Perkins played in his 130th career MLS match and made his 130th career MLS start on Saturday. He ranks 11th all-time among MLS goalkeepers in career games played. Perkins is just one shy of recording his 50th career MLS win.
Darlington Nagbe becomes the fourth different goal scorer for the Timbers this season.
Portland has scored four goals through its first two regular-season matches of 2012, with all four goals being scored in the second half of games.
The Timbers improve to 1-1-1 all-time against FC Dallas. The two sides split their season series in 2011, with each side winning at home.
Defender Hanyer Mosquera made his MLS debut Saturday for the Timbers, getting the start at central defender alongside Eric Brunner. He was not available for the Timbers season opener Monday at JELD-WEN Field while waiting for his ITC.
Midfielder Eric Alexander played against his former club for the first time Saturday. He was acquired by the Timbers in a late-season trade from FC Dallas in exchange for Jeremy Hall on Aug. 19, 2011.
FC Dallas was without 2011 MLS All-Star and MLS Best XI midfielder Brek Shea, who was called up by the U.S. U-23 National Team earlier this week.
The Timbers are 0-0-1 against Western Conference opponents in 2012.
Playing on St. Patrick's Day, the Timbers wore their green primary kits (green-white-green) against FC Dallas. The club is unbeaten this season (1-0-1) when wearing its primary kits.
Goalkeeper Joe Bendik made his first appearance on the Timbers match-day roster this season, serving as the backup goalkeeper while goalkeeper Jake Gleeson is away with the New Zealand U-23 National Team during its Olympic qualifying tournament.

I am trying to capture a timestamp for when a spreadsheet is first edited, and ONLY keep that first timestamp. However,
NOW() updates each time a spreadsheet is edited. I found a working formula (unfortunately only for Excel) which uses circular dependency. Since Google Docs does not support that at the moment, I wanted to find another way around it.
Basically, I want a formula in one cell to paste the timestamp into another cell after checking to make sure the target cell is empty, otherwise just leave as is:
=IF(A2="", A2=Text(Now(), "HH:mm:ss"), A2)
or something like that where this formula would be placed in another cell and would edit A2 only if A2 was empty. Again, if Google Spreadsheet supported circular dependency, I could easily place this into A2 and be done with it. But sadly, I can't. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Please note, I am trying to accomplish this without scripts, since the number of tabs for this spreadsheet will change dramatically per user. Therefore, I would rather each tab have its own formula to calculate this timestamp.

Our company recently purchased this item for our staff lounge. This is by far the worst piece of furniture that we have ever had the displeasure of sitting on. I would strongly recommend not purchasing this item if you value your comfort in any way what so ever. If there was an option for zero stars it would have been selected.
Great quality sofa
J from Logan, UT – Verified Buyer
The Citi Sofa was an excellent choice. Ordered in a dark grey mock leather and was very pleased with the fabric quality. The sofa is lightweight and the size is smaller than typical which met the specific needs of the project. Construction seems durable for commercial use.
Great Couch

Ilene from Acton, MA – Verified Buyer

The Kardashians
Bikini-Clad Kardashians "Hypnotize" Fans With New Music Video
Bikinis, booties, and Biggie! Kim Kardashian joins the rest of her outspoken family in a dance video set to Notorious B.I.G's Hypnotize filmed while on vacation in the Dominican Republic.
"Heres [sic] our latest family music video to Hypnotize by Notorious B.I.G.!!!" Kendall and Kylie Jenner, who directed and edited the video, wrote on the YouTube video. "We might get some hate but who cares, we had fun doing it! hope you guys don't take this too seriously! :D love you allllllll!!!! ENJOY."
The four and half minute long video features the entire family (minus Khloe and Lamar) clowning around on the beach and dancing atop a giant yacht.
The group tries amp up the laugh factor as Scott Disick sports a purple doo rag, Bruce slaps Kris's behind, and the camera lingers on Kim's dancing booty.
This isn't the first time the Kdash fam has starred in their own lip-synching video. Who can forget "Lady Marmalade", "E.T.", and "Better Than Revenge"?
We're crossing our fingers that this latest cinematic treasure ends up as the new opening for Keeping Up With the Kardashians!

2 missing recipes
Okay bakers out there, I need your help.My mother passed away three years ago and took with her our family's 2 favorite recipes(which she always said she would).
One is for a 7-up cake which was so light and airy it literally fell apart when accompanied with coffee or tea.
The 2nd is for a banana bundt cake which was so heavy and rich
it could put you to sleep merely by inhaling it.
Okay bakers,can you help?

On Monday morning, decorated U.S. Marine Corps veteran and former East Hampton Town Republican Chairman John Behan announced his endorsement of incumbent Congressman Tim Bishop. Bishop, a Democrat, is facing Republican, Conservative and Independence Party candidate Randy Altschuler in the race for U.S. Congress this fall.
Altschuler is seeking to unseat Bishop for the second time. Two years ago he lost his first run for political office by fewer than 600-votes — one of the narrowest margins of victory in a Congressional race in 2010.
Behan was the East End's representative in the New York State Assembly from 1978 to 1995 and has earned iconic status for his work, politically and in veterans' affairs. Behan was a driving force behind the establishment of the New York State Assembly's Veterans Affairs Committee and also served as Director of the state's Division of Veterans' Affairs from 1995 to 1998.
Behan was the chairman of the East Hampton Town Republican Committee in 2009, stepping down in 2010 and leaving the committee for good in 2011. Last year, Behan's wife, Marilyn, ran unsuccessfully as an Independence Party candidate for a seat on the East Hampton Town Board.
During his announcement, at the new Montauk eatery La Bodega on Monday morning, Behan attempted to dispel rumors that the endorsement was a result of his ire with the East Hampton Republican Committee for not supporting his wife as a candidate for East Hampton Town Board. While Behan said he remained critical of that decision, and cited the failure of the committee to elect two new town board members, the endorsement of Bishop was about people, not politics.
"I like a guy who is homegrown and knows the district like the back of his hand," said Behan. "That is Tim Bishop. He works hard for veterans too."
"Tim Bishop is a native East Ender who understands our local issues and works across the aisle to deliver results for our community — especially our fishermen and farmers," added Behan in a press release issued after Monday's announcement. "In addition, hundreds of local veterans are better off today as a direct result of his dedicated efforts, and I am also proud to endorse him based on respect for veterans and hard work on their behalf."
"John Behan's service to our nation and our East End Community is unparalleled, and I am honored and humbled to accept his endorsement of my re-election," said Congressman Bishop. "John always put public service above politics, and this is also an endorsement of my bipartisan approach to working with local officials and my success in bringing federal resources to the table to solve local problems."
"Today's endorsement was really about local politics, and has no impact on the tremendous momentum Randy has right now," said Altschuler campaign manager Diana Weir, another East Hampton political heavyweight. "We released a specific 10-point jobs plan focused on fixing Long Island's economy; we have won endorsements from the New York State Independence Party, the Suffolk County Conservative Party and the Suffolk County Republican Party; and our primary opponent just dropped out of the race allowing us to focus 100 percent on the general election where voters will be faced with a clear choice between a self-made businessman and job creator like Randy Altschuler and a career bureaucrat turned politician who has destroyed jobs on Long Island like Tim Bishop."
"Of course Randy Altschuler doesn't understand the importance of local endorsements," said Bishop campaign spokesman Robert Pierce. "He isn't local. He moved to Long Island to run for office a few years ago. John Behan is a man of honor and integrity. He has dedicated his entire life to serving his country and the people of Eastern Long Island. Congressman Bishop is proud of this endorsement by an East End icon. Both John Behan and Congressman Bishop agree that bipartisanship is good for middle class Suffolk County families."

"Winamp vs iTune"
Winamp is an example of altruism and generosity, developpers have build what is the most straight forward and probably the best Music Player/Organizer application for everyone to use freely ... Hats down.
The opposite example is Apple's iTune solely driven by profit and egemonic proprietorship. They've prevented newest versions of their iProducts to be recognized by Winamp (ref. mliPod plugin) ... not so cool.

KATS Studio Filled With Rock Stars
Killer afternoon at 94.5 KATS!!!! Just hanging out waiting for my show to start and doing some show prep, you know the normal stuff. Then the KATS line rings just as Focker was leaving and on the other line is Fieldy from Korn!! At first I didnt think that it was him. I figured it was some drunk guy playing around! HA Then he says "Hey, me and my other band Stillwell rented a car and we are headed to the station!" I said bring it! Stillwell is the opening band for Monsters Music As A Weapon 5 tour. Fieldy is the bass player from Korn but in the band Stillwell he is playing shredding ass guitar. Along with Fieldy from Korn, "Wuv" Bernardo Jr. from P.O.D. , rapper Q Unique and a Kat named Spider! The band is amazing and and excellent interview!

Google's Gmail app for iOS is back, a fortnight after the company ripped the first version out of the App Store due to a bug that broke notifications.
"We've fixed the bug and notifications are now working, and the app is back in the App Store," Google product manager Matthew Izatt announced on the Gmail blog.
Anyone that managed to pick up the original app will need to uninstall it before installing the new version.
Version 1.0.2 includes pinch to zoom for HTML messages, but little else has changed and it still only supports one email account.
Izatt noted users had requested this feature as well as improved notifications and mobile signatures, such as a "Sent from my iPhone" signature, but these will come in a later version.
"We're just getting started with the Gmail app for iOS and will be iterating rapidly to bring you more features, including all the ones listed above plus many more," said Izatt.

Men's VIP List
Both Women's & Men's VIP List
We've endorsed Sundek before as a wardrobe essential, but these camo boardshorts kick ass. Just landed at S22MAN and get 'em while we have your size. Memorial Day and the beach are just round the corner. Oh and if camo's not your bag we've got ombre faded too… (more…)
With Spring Break upon us and Memorial Day and summer round the corner we were stoked to see some of our favorite gear amongst Selectism's "10 Wet Short". Onia's Calder Short and Lightning Bolt's boardshort were mentioned. If those don't suffice we also have Sundek and Olasul as well. Pair any of these trunks with a great graphic t, tank, your favorite shades and Havaianas and you're ready to jet to the beach or poolside. (more…)
Havaianas is known for making the world's best flip flop, straight from the beaches in Brazil and available worldwide. São Paulo, Brazil is the predominant city in the graffiti world with the largest number of works, and considered one of the top cities in the world to appreciate street art and Havaianas has found a way for you to sport some of this killer art. We are stoked about the union between Havaianas and urban art, and have these limited edition flip-flops with prints from 3 renowned graffiti artists: Highraff, Speto and Zezão. Havaianas are a must have for the summer months, whether paired with denim, your favorite boardshorts from Onia, Sundek or Olasul; or rocking shorts from Burkman Bros. Throw on your Ray-Bans or Persol shades and fill a Wm. J. Mills & Co. duffel with some tanks and Fred Perry polos and you're ready for a rockin' beach weekend.
The California classic board short is back with a vengeance and no matter what your favorite color is we've got you covered. Whether lying in the sun or riding the swells, no guy's closet should be lacking these killer trunks. We offer an array of solids, plaids and patterns. We also offer the capsule collection from Neil Barrett and you can score his version in CAMO! Pair these sick board shorts with some Havaianas, Raybans and Burkman Bros bracelets and tanks and you're good to go! Don't just take our word for it T – The New York Times Style Magazine, Esquire and the LA Times concur. (more…)
S22Men are very much 'on-the-go'. We want to have you prepared for that long-awaited vacation. If you have a getaway approaching, these are the goods you need! (Click on each image to go directly to the product) – Happy Holidays!
Refinery29 and Grungy Gentleman picked out some killer camouflage product for this season. We made the list twice via Rogue and Sundek!
'Camp SINGER22′ was the theme for spring 2011's lookbook. The shoot was photographed by SPREADhouse, starring model CJ Richards, and features AG, Burkman Bros, Del Toro, Florsheim by Duckie Brown, Grungy Gentleman x J Shoes, Havaianas by Michael Bastian, J Brand, Kiel James Patrick, Olasul, Plain Jane Homme, Ray-Ban, Riviera Club, Rogue, Simon Spurr, Steven Alan, Sundek, Sundek by Neil Barrett, and Vince.
Sundek is what summer is all about. The colorways are so much fun, just as summer time should be. Check out some rad trunks to hit the beach with this summer!

Caretaker manager Mark Grew has confirmed Port Vale are close to agreeing new contracts with Doug Loft and Adam Yates.
The duo's contracts expire in the summer, but Grew is determined to tie them to new deals as he begins his preparations for next season.
He told the club's official website: "The contracts are being drawn up now, ready for them to sign."
He added: "The amount of appearances they have made this season shows you how consistent they have been. Yates has always been part and parcel of the first XI.
"Doug has done really well this season, he has been really consistent and deserves the contract that has been offered to him.
"They are are hungry, they want to improve and they want to get better. That is why we have offered them new contracts."

Beta World Event pics!!
World Event in Closed Beta
For those of you who really want to wade through random WoW images there's another album with various screenshots I took in Beta, and one with general eyecandy pics I collected over the last year and a half playing WoW. There are captions on all to explain what they are.
2 comments:
Hi, I like the pics. I have not had the opportunity to play World of Warcraft although I used to play Ultima Online in '97 when it started. I liked the experience, but never have my internet connection working enough and strong enough to play a constant online game. This is because of a proxy firewall established by the college so I can't play games. Infuriating because my computer specs are heading out of date and I never got to use the PC for what I wanted it to do. Online Games !ReplyDelete
I Like the pics, like I say, I like the "your strength feeds me!" pic. I have saved it, and it might help as supplemental to any D&D Eberron game I run in the future. Part of Deamon Wastes. check out www.eberron.com or www.gamesworkshop.com
Safe travels happy journeys.

Recently retired San Antonio Spurs point guard T.J. Ford is always going to have his list of "what if's." What if he hadn't gotten badly injured in his rookie season? What if he had been able to play out his full career without the constant fear of permanent paralysis? What if he had reached his full potential? What would that have looked like for Ford?
If you ask him, he'll tell you he wouldn't have disappointed.
"If not for injuries, of course I felt like I would have been one of the dominant guys in the NBA, one of the elite point guards," Ford said. "I never actually got to the full potential."
Of course, we'll never know, but I like to think he's right. Watching him play at Texas, I knew T.J. was something special. He had a determination and knack for the game that was undeniable. I really think he would have matured into one of the best in the game if he hadn't been almost paralyzed during a collision his rookie year.
He tried as hard as he could to play with his injuries, but it was clear he never made it to the level he was capable of. Defying the odds and going against doctors' orders, he continued to give his best, but it was only good enough to be a backup in this league.
Even with all the "what if's," I Ford made the right decision to retire. He has other things to worry about besides his legacy as a basketball player. Rather than risk paralysis and continue to play in the NBA, he can play with his son and start training him to be the next great point guard instead.

Please note: An abstract that is accepted for oral presentation may only have a single individual present. Multiple presenters will not be permitted. This will be strictly enforced.
|Download a copy of the Oral Abstract Presentation Guidelines Here
|Download the Genitourinary Cancers Symposium Powerpoint Template
If you submit your presentation via Faculty Headquarters Website:
Your presentation will be pre-loaded into the computer network system on site. However, you will be asked to review your presentation onsite to ensure the slides are as you would like them. A back-up disk is recommended.
If you DO NOT submit your presentation via the Faculty Headquarters Website:
We highly recommend that you bring your Powerpoint file to the Faculty Registration and Ready Room the day prior to your session. If you do not bring your electronic file to the Faculty Ready room AT LEAST 2 hours prior to the start of your session, the risk for A/V problems is significant. Please bring your electronic presentation(s) in one of the following formats: Zip disk, CD-ROM, or USB flash drive. A back-up disk/copy is also recommended.
|Developing Your Electronic Presentation
Please develop your electronic presentation using Microsoft Powerpoint.
If you are using Powerpoint 2001 on a Macintosh computer, please see the additional instructions below; it is also recommended that you install the Microsoft Office 2001 Service Release 1.
- Save the PowerPoint template to your computer
• For Internet Explorer users, right click on the template hyperlink, and select Save Target As.... Then after the file name, type ".pot"--full file name should read "ASCO_Design_Template.pot"
• For Netscape and Opera users, left click on the template hyperlink--you should then see a window that allows you to open or save the file. Again, when you save, make sure to add ".pot" after the file name to save it as a template
- Create your presentation--no need to add formatting or color
- While in PowerPoint, select Format, and then Apply Design Template
- Locate the saved ASCO template, and click Apply
- Review and save your updated presentation
|Follow these general guidelines when creating your presentation:
- Summarize the material on each slide succinctly (Use no more than five to eight lines per slide and five to seven words per line)
- Use uppercase and lowercase lettering, as it is easier to read than all capital letters
- Use one of the following fonts:
•Preferred fonts: Arial or Tahoma
•Other approved fonts: Times New Roman or Courier
- Make tables, graphs and diagrams clear and simple
- Avoid using many colors, patterns and graphics on one slide as this distracts from the content
- Orient all type horizontally, even if on graphs and diagrams
|If using images:
- Use Jpeg file format
• Avoid images at a higher resolution than Jpeg or overloading your presentation with images, as this will increase the size of your presentation
• Extremely large images (such as electronic x-ray files) or presentation files could have a problem being properly projected due to operational capacities of some electronic projectors o Do not use PIC graphics in your PowerPoint presentation
- If using animation:
- Use simple entry animation effects, such as fly in/out, appear, and dissolve
- Do not use exit animations
- Avoid using animation if you are creating a presentation in PowerPoint XP on a Macintosh computer
- If using movies:
- Use the following standard tools if you are using Microsoft Windows on a PC: Cinepak, Indeo Video 3.2, Indeo Video Interactive 5.10, Intel RAW, MPEG1, MPEG2, MS MPEG4, or Divx 3/4/5 (Save the movie with a file name extension of .avi or .mpg.)
- If you are working on a PC, follow these steps to determine the compatibility of the movie and if it will function in PowerPoint
- Click Start and then click Run
- Type the name of the appropriate program file in the Open box (mplayer.exe if you are using Microsoft Windows 98 or Microsoft Windows Millennium Edition or mplay32.exe if you are using Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 or Microsoft Windows 2000/XP)
- Click OK (This starts the Media Player.)
- Click Open on the File menu
- Select the movie that you want to verify - Click Open
- Use the following tools if you are using a Macintosh computer: QuickTime (no later than version 2.5) and Cinepak AVI codec (Save the movie with a file name extension of .avi or convert to the MPEG format with QuickTime Pro.)
- Test your movies and presentation on a Windows platform before finalizing your presentation
- Use the lowest possible resolution for the video file to keep the size of the file small and thus avoid any potential for electronic projector capacity problems
Special Note: If you are using a video file in your presentation you must bring that file with you. If you do not have the video accompanying your presentation, your video will not play.
|Converting Mac Power Point Slides to PC Power Point Slides
At the Symposium, the default computer equipment used in the session rooms are PCs, not Macs.

Westward - to see the sea.
View Single Post
Certified Geezer
Joined: Oct 2005
Location: The West, etc.
Oddometer: 7,603
Then I remembered that I had forgotten to install a gift from a friend.
Which might be the source of this problem; an electrical gremlin.
What to do about the frozen GPS? I purchased it at a nearby Best Buy so, in hopes of meeting with a merciful customer service rep, I sped over there in my Jeep. During the drive, I mentally prepared arguments in support of my request for an exchange and got ready to make my case.
The rep said "No problem", and handed me a replacement unit.
When I planned this trip I promised myself:
1. No big cities, if at all possible and,
2. No freeways, if at all possible.
From my neighborhood I quickly find myself on county roads that seem to be headed in the right direction. I'm easing from the get-ready-for-a-trip mania to the fact that I'm on the road with no schedule or specific direction.
As you can see, the fall colors are stunning against this dramatic background. I see no traffic and I'm idling along at about 45 mph.
Isn't this what it's about? Now I'm traveling north on the County Rd #27 in Larimer County, which I highly recommend. The road seems made for motorcycles and it can be ridden fast or slowly.
I began my trip in mid-October and during the early part of the summer, there was considerable drama in this area due to the High Park Fire. It was an enormous forest fire. We choked on its smoke for weeks but that was little inconvenience compared to the many residents who lost everything. Over 250 homes were burned.
Ultimately, the fire burned over 87,250 acres and took the life of a 62 year old woman. In this photo you can see how close the fire came to some of the homesteads.
In late afternoon I reach the Poudre Canyon Hwy, #14, and turn left - to the West.
"When I was younger I was afraid I'd die riding now that I'm old and falling apart, I'm afraid I won't."

Activision today announced the Call of Duty Championship, a new Black Ops II eSports tournament with $1 million up for grabs. In partnership with Microsoft, Major League Gaming, and the Electronic Sports League, Activision will bring 32 of the most skilled teams in the world to Hollywood, California April 5-7 for a tournament to be live-streamed across the world.
Players interested in taking part in the tournament can register at the official official Call of Duty eSports page. All gamers must have a Call of Duty: Elite account (free) to register for the tournament.
Once registered, teams of four can duke it out for entry into the Call of Duty Championship by competing in the February League Play mode for Black Ops, which opens today. The tournament is open only to Xbox 360 gamers.
After the February League Play season comes to a close, the top eight teams will earn spots in the Call of Duty Championship in Hollywood. In addition, the top eight Black Ops II teams from the MLG Winter Championship in March will earn spots at the Call of Duty Championship, as will the top eight from ESL's European Finals.
The remaining eight seats at the Call of Duty Championship will be available to gamers in Asia, Australia, and Brazil. Territory-specific qualification details will be revealed in each region in the coming weeks.
According to Treyarch studio head Mark Lamia, eSports integration has been an "integral" part of Black Ops II since the company began development on the game. For more on the Call of Duty Championship, check out the video below.

The following is an archive of a post made to our
'vox mailing list'
by one of its subscribers.
Quoting nbs (email@example.com):
> BTW - I just signed up for their list yesterday, and poked in to say
> "hi, you guys need help?" The one response so far (which I didn't
> read all of yet) mentions your "Recipe for a Successful LUG," so
> they at least know what direction they should be going in.
Well, that's flattering. Probably the most relevant part of that essay
is the bit about needing several active members. Those active people
need the machine access and collective knowledge required to keep things
For example, there should be multiple people with edit access to the Web
site (and also multiple people with admin ability on the mailing list).
There should be a record of who has that access, and who knows how to
do it. There should be a record of whom to contact to get involved.
There should be a record of whom to call to reserve the meeting room
(name, telephone number, office hours), how to make sure it's unlocked,
and whom to call if it isn't. Who are the domain admins. How to fix
DNS problems. Like that. And all of this should be on a Web page (or
Wiki), as collective memory.
And I'm sorry Dustin is suffering burnout. He's had a tendency to be
NBLUG's chief cook and bottle washer, which is generous but has
disadvantages that are probably now obvious. I imagine that the keys to
avoiding burnout are: delegate and automate. One-man bands tend to
collapse when that one man does.

Well, there are several reasons. Colin Smythe asks whether we can see anything that has scientific backing in the claims made for "sHGH" at primehealthdirect.com - claims such as: "Both men and women have reported powerful aphrodisiac effects of HGH" and that it "rebuilds the body but also revitalises mental function".
We were momentarily puzzled. Surely human growth hormone is tightly regulated when used medicinally? After all, the effects of excess include acromegaly - not a pleasant condition. But then we looked at the "ingredients" page and spotted the word "succussed". A clue! It's homeopathic. There are not necessarily any ingredients at all. You might just as well splash out £50 for a small bottle of water.
Then we read further. Just to be on the safe ...

McAnuff tells latest on big 'Yoshimi' musical
Director confirms actor Nolan tapped for world-premiere Playhouse show
There's some major news about La Jolla Playhouse's upcoming world-premiere musical "Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots," one of the most buzzed-about new musicals to open in the U.S. this year. And it involves an actor who'll be a familiar face to Playhouse (and Broadway) regulars.
Director Des McAnuff, the two-time former Playhouse artistic chief who created "Yoshimi" with the rock band The Flaming Lips, has confirmed that Paul Nolan will play the prime role of Ben in the production.
Nolan was last seen at the Playhouse as the title character in McAnuff's production of "Jesus Christ Superstar," a show that originated at Canada's Stratford Shakespeare Festival (the director's current artistic home) and had a La Jolla run before transferring to Broadway.
"Paul Nolan has been a pretty major young player here -- I would say our most prominent (young) leading man," McAnuff said in a phone chat Wednesday morning. "He has really blossomed not only as a musical-theater performer but as a classical actor.
"In all honesty, he was obvious casting for the part of Ben. I was spurred on to make an offer to Paul simply because he's so in-demand right now."
The Playhouse has not yet officially announced any casting for "Yoshimi," which begins previews Nov. 6 and runs through Dec. 16. That includes the title role in the show, which takes its name from the 2002 Lips album (although music from other recordings also is being incorporated into the piece). The theater says it hopes to announce the full cast by the end of this week.
The musical is centered on Yoshimi, a Japanese-American artist whose battle against a serious illness morphs into a fantastical war against (as the title song goes) the "evil-natured robots" who are out to destroy her.
The character of Ben, a computer graphics designer, is "one of the two major male roles in the piece," McAnuff says, along with another character, Booker. "I think a casting director or producer would call (Ben) the first male lead."
The musical's story is officially credited to McAnuff and Lips leader Wayne Coyne, with music and lyrics by The Flaming Lips. Besides directing, McAnuff also gets a "conceived by" credit.
But "this is really a theater piece based on the music and lyrics of The Flaming Lips. I want to be very clear (that) I consider Wayne Coyne to be the principal creator, because he wrote the music the show is based on.
"It's a sung-through musical, by and large, so I'm not sure we'll even credit a book anyway."
McAnuff also says that while "this is very much a developmental production," it'll be a fully fleshed-out show, and the team is going "full-tilt boogie" on creating the extensive, sci-fi minded effects.
Meantime, McAnuff is wrapping up his final season as artistic director at Stratford, although he'll return next year as director of the festival's revival of "The Who's Tommy," the show that helped rocket McAnuff to stardom after it went from the Playhouse to a Tony-winning New York run in the early 1990s.

The chemicals and synthetic fragrances that fill many commercial soaps and moisturizers can do more harm than good,
especially in allergic individuals who may experience contact dermatitis from soap, shampoo and conditioner, or lotions. Sulfates, like
sodium lauryl sulfate/sodium laureth sulfate (SLS) and sodium lauryl ether sulfate (SLES) are found in the vast majority of
soaps, shampoos and personal cleaning products we use each day. Increasingly, sulfates are joining a growing list of chemical
irritants that are effecting larger and larger groups of people. Aside from sulfates, most lotions, moisturizers, skin creams, shampoos and conditioners
also contain a myriad of chemicals and fragrances that can adversely effect asthmatics as well as those who suffer from MCS or eczema.
Vanicream products are made with you in mind to help fight
eczema and to keep you and your skin healthy.
We offer several products that will help get you clean and moisturize safely without all the irritating additives.
Vanicream Skin Cream is an excellent solution for those with dry,
sensitive skin. Thick, just a little of this fragrance free skin cream goes a long way. Excellent for severely dry skin, the Vanicream
Skin Cream comes in a convenient 1lb. pump container. For those who desire lighter coverage,
Vanicream Lite Lotion is a great moisturizing alternative.
Like the skin cream, this lotion contains no perfumes, lanolin, dyes, formaldehyde, or parabens. Its non greasy and quickly dries while
leaving softer skin without the scale. Free & Clear Liquid Cleanser
is also free of fragrances or chemicals that often irritate the skin. Use it all over - face, hands, and body for a clean that won't leave a residue.
For your hair, use Free & Clear Shampoo and Conditioner which are
formulated to cleanse your scalp and hair without any chemicals. This hypoallergenic shampoo and conditioner is sulfate free, has no dyes, or
formaldehyde releasers, and provides a simple kind of clean that works well with a variety of sensitive people. For people with eczema or
very sensitive skin, new skin care products can be a bit of a gamble, but one of the best things about
the Vanicream and Free & Clear products is that you contact customer service and try a sample for free.
You may do a lot at home to keep allergens and chemical irritants out of your environment; but at places like work or while
traveling, you don't always have this type of control. Personal air purifiers
are great for purifying the air while on the go or away from home. Amaircare's Roomaid HEPA Air Purifier
is our most popular compact air purifier for filtering out allergens and chemicals. With an convenient adapter, this compact air purifier is great for use in your vehicle, next to your bed or
at your desk. Optional activated carbon canisters allow you to broaden the filtration range, targeting chemicals and odors in addition to the standard HEPA
filtration and sealed system. Personal air purification is possible even on air planes
with the Plane Clean Air filter which fits over
existing air vents and helps you avoid both germs and allergens while you fly.

Episode #087: Surveying some of the props she's used over the years, including masks and mannequin parts, artist Cindy Sherman demonstrates how she uses stand-ins to gauge the focus and composition of her images. In self-reflexive photographs and films, Cindy Sherman invents myriad guises, metamorphosing from Hollywood starlet to clown to society matron. Often with the simplest of means—a camera, a wig, makeup, an outfit—Sherman fashions ambiguous but memorable characters that suggest complex lives lived out of frame. Sherman's investigations have a compelling relationship to public images, from kitsch (film stills and centerfolds) to art history (Old Masters and Surrealism) to green-screen technology and the latest advances in digital photography.

Bowmanville, ON, CA —
Driving around the fast and bumpy configuration of the daunting Mosport International Raceway in Ontario, Canada, TRG suffered an unfortunate retirement during Sunday's Grand Prix of Mosport, however the team still garnered a top-five on the day.
Driving the no. 63 Freescale Semiconductor/Future Electronics/LifeStudio by Hitachi/Green Hills Software Porsche 911 GT3 Cup car, driver Henri Richard returned to the team after missing the previous round at Elkhart Lake, and was challenged with the daunting task of learning one of the most challenging circuits in the world.
After a flawless Friday practice, an unfortunate accident in qualifying meant Richard had to start the race from the back, giving him an opportunity to drive with all eyes forward.
"The opening of the race went flawlessly," stated Richard. "I was just focused on a clean and consistent performance, and was actually setting my quickest lap times of the weekend as the stint went on. Unfortunately, I was a little distracted when our spotter called something out on the radio, and I just barely missed my braking marker. This track is very unforgiving, and I hit the wall just hard enough to keep it from moving forward, and we were forced to retire. It's a shame because the guys worked really hard after qualifying to get the car up to race condition, but unfortunately this is just part of racing. We'll move forward to Petit Le Mans and I look forward to a shot at redemption."
After light contact with the wall, the TRG Porsche was forced to a stop, and the team was forced to retire. As a small bit of solace, with high attrition due to the tricky configuration of Mosport, TRG was still able to walk away with a fifth place.
For Team Owner Kevin Buckler, the team will have to press forward.
"This was a tough weekend for everyone," stated Buckler. "Two accidents in two days really put the guys to the test, and as always they met the challenge with great aplomb. We got the car right for raceday & Henri was just flying, turning his absolute best laps of the weekend. His little off track should have been nothing but the track is not properly maintained and there were no tires where he went off and he touched concrete. We are all really pumped for Petit Le Mans. It is going to be good!!"
The final round of the American Le Mans Series presented by Tequila Patron will be the famed Petit Le Mans, running on Saturday, October 2nd with partial coverage occurring live on SPEED.
Silicon Tech Racing, LLC was created by Henri Richard to address the need of high-tech corporations for an opportunity to leverage exciting road racing events with a dedicated marketing platform focused on technology executives interested in an informal and intimate insight into the sport. Silicon Tech Racing brings together selected, C-level executives at each racing event and provides a high value, targeted business to business networking opportunity to our partners. The team's partners are carefully selected based on ecosystem synergies and common business values. As a not for profit race team, the aim is to provide a unique, cost effective value proposition to our partners and a memorable experience to our guests.
TRG was founded in 1993 and has been competing at the top level of motor racing ever since. The team has three wins and 16 podiums in the ALMS, as well as the most wins of any team in the Grand-Am Rolex Series with 30, including the 2005 and 2006 Rolex Series GT championship trophy to go along with wins at the Rolex 24 at Daytona and the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

Seemed like before the internet came along and demystified everything, every community had a story like this: Crazy guy with a knife/axe/gun terrorizes kids in town. There are a million varieties told around camp fires every year. Ever hear the one about the couple in the car who keep hearing the scratching while making out amidst reports of a killer on the loose only to find a hook dangling from the door handle after they finally beat it? What about the one where the male half of the horny duo gets out to check on the sound and the female half later finds that the scratching sound was the guy's ring scraping the top of the car because he'd been killed and hung upside down from a tree above the car and the wind caused him to sway? Tonight's may be the genesis of this local legend and it comes recommended from Cinema Suicide reader, Suzie Pillipot.
Fairfax County, Virginia has a nasty secret. Since 1904, reports have gone around that a man wearing a white bunny suit, wielding an axe has been spotted in the woods surrounding the area. Reports have circulated that people wandering in these areas often encounter the man, shouting gibberish and chasing people, threatening them and in a couple of instances, actually running them down, bashing their heads in and then hanging their skinned corpses from a railroad overpass that has come to be named Bunny Man Bridge. Neatly skinned animals in this part of the forest are often found as well, sometimes hanging in the same fashion in the same location. Local legends state that in 1904, while being transferred from a state mental institution to Lorton Prison, several patients managed to escape. Of these fugitives, Douglas J. Grifon murdered fellow inmate Marcus Wallster and then disappeared into the woods, reappearing occasionally to terrorize the locals, only his legacy has outlived actual human lifespan and Grifon, in bunny suit, continues to be spotted to this day, screaming unintelligibly, waving that god damn axe around.
Unfortunately there are a shitload of holes in this story and the casual observer would never know. The devil is in the details, you see. It's easy to accept a story when it's loaded with names, dates and locations but this one, full of factual sounding data, is actually full of shit. Lorton Prison wasn't built until 191o, there has never been a mental institution in this particular area and there are no criminal records at all linked to the people named in this article. The story I have just told is a work of pure fiction.
This site, an exhaustive collection of data and research about this legend offers a couple of extremely interesting entries into the public record related to the Bunny Man legend.
From the Washington Post, October 22, 1970:
Man in Bunny Suit Sought in Fairfax
Fairfax County police said yesterday they are looking for a man who likes to wear "white bunny rabbit costume" and throw hatchets through car windows. Honest.
Air Force Academy Cadet Robert Bennett told police that shortly after midnight last Sunday he and his fiancee were sitting in a car in the 5400 block of Guinea Road when a man "dressed in a white suit with long bunny ears" ran from the nearby bushes and shouted: "You're on private property and I have your tag number."
The "Rabbit" threw a wooden-handled hatchet through the right front car window, the first-year cadet told police. As soon as he threw the hatchet, the "rabbit" skipped off into the night, police said. Bennett and his fiancee were not injured.
Police say they have the hatchet, but no other clues in the case. They say Bennett was visiting an uncle, who lives across the street from the spot where the car was parked. The cadet was in the area to attend last weekend's Air Force-Navy football game.
Here's another one.
From The Washington Post, October 31, 1970
The "Rabbit" Reappears
A man wearing a furry rabbit suit with two long ears appeared — again — on Guinea Road in Fairfax County Thursday night, police reported, this time wielding an ax and chopping away at a roof support on a new house.
Less than two weeks ago a man wearing what was described as a rabbit suit accused two persons in a parked car of trespassing and heaved a hatchet through a closed window of the car at 5400 Guinea Rd. They were not hurt.
Thursday night's rabbit, wearing a suit described as gray, black and white, was spotted a block away at 5307 Guinea Rd.
Paul Phillips, a private security guard for a construction company, said he saw the "rabbit" standing on the front porch of a new, but unoccupied house.
"I started talking to him," Phillips said, "and that's when he started chopping."
"All you people trespass around here," Phillips said the "Rabbit" told him as he whacked eight gashes in the pole. "If you don't get out of here, I'm going to bust you on the head."
Phillips said he walked back to his car to get to get his handgun, but the "Rabbit", carrying the long-handled ax, ran off into the woods.
The security guard said the man was about 5-feet-8, 160 pounds and appeared to be in his early 20s.
The Bunny Man legend begins to take on qualities of a diagram of an urban legend. These documented run-ins with The Bunny Man tie in to a litany of word of mouth stories from locals which almost always involved a hatchet being thrown, young people in cars and even a few of them involve encounters with a man in a bunny suit hacking at a column of some kind.
Tremendous amounts of research have been done on the topic of the Bunny Man of Fairfax County and so many of the stories since 1970 carry details consistent with documented encounters from the time. Eventually, encounters with The Bunny Man, stop being so consistent and go back to tall tale status but a period in the history of this legend, 1970, gets really specific in the details. Who the hell was this guy and why the bunny suit? More importantly, where did he go? Further reports in Fairfax Country talk of an 'axe man' with details that are consistent with the Bunny Man sightings but none involve a bunny suit.

Tim McGraw: 'Southern' man, and proud of it
Charts his own course while staying true to country music's roots
McGraw went in a different direction in his role last year in the surprise box-office blockbuster "The Blind Side," in which he played Oscar-winner Sandra Bullock's very wealthy, very conservative Republican husband. His latest movie, "Love Don't Let Me Down," is due out in the fall. It was shot in Nashville and casts him (again as a husband) opposite Gwyneth Paltrow, who plays a faded country singer trying to make a comeback with his character's help as her manager.
McGraw, whose self-titled debut album came out in 1993 on Curb Records, is in no need of a comeback. His album sales to date equal 40 million and counting. Yet, when Curb released his "Greatest Hits 3" collection in 2008, just two years after his McGraw's "Greatest Hits 2" came out, he not only distanced himself from "Greatest Hits 3," he publicly denounced it as a transparent exercise in greed. It was such an "embarrassment," he said at the time, that he encouraged his fans not to buy it.
Such candor is rare in any style of music, let alone from one of the biggest-selling acts of the past decade-plus.
But McGraw is nothing if not candid and unafraid to follow his own path, even if his broadly appealing songs rarely venture into musical territory he and his listeners aren't immediately comfortable sharing.
"Country music has a lot of rules," he told a Time magazine interviewer in 2004. "It can be frustrating, but the key is figuring out which ones matter and which ones don't."

Gordon Giltrap, one of the world's leading guitarists, will next month give a free concert at Loughborough University in the UK. But this will be a concert with a difference, for Giltrap will be playing a plastic guitar.
Developed at the university, the guitar is designed to reproduce the sound and feel of a wooden acoustic guitar. The soundboard is made of a polycarbonate foam rather than the traditional spruce. "If you inject different quantities of hydrogen into it you can replicate the densities of different woods. And it is not inert like plastic; it resonates," says Alan Greensall, who is in charge of licensing the technology for Loughborough University Enterprises. The instrument could ease the pressure on endangered tree species. Guitar bodies are also often made of Brazilian rosewood, which is so rare that it cannot be traded.
Jazz saxophonist Ornette Coleman famously played a plastic instrument in the ...

This may be a bit too obscure for Giant Bomb, Luxor AB created a series of home computers, named ABC 80, ABC 800 and ABC 1600 (ABC being an abbreviation for Advanced BASIC Computer) between 1978 and 1985. As far as I know they were only available in Sweden, Finland and Bulgaria, but were quite popular there up until the Commodore 64 and IBM PC took over in the mid to late 80's, and continue to have some amount of cult status in Sweden. Given the small install base (and the fact that they were primarily indended as office and educational computers, the amount of games released was limited, probably only around 10 seeing actual retail release), I'd suggest it to be a "Luxor ABC series" shared platform, like how PC includes DOS, Windows and Linux currently. That is of course if it should be added at all, as the computers and the software never had an US release.
