Applications invited for "Artist-in-residence Scheme 2005-06"
Local performing artists are being invited to apply for the "Artist-in-residence Scheme 2005-06" to conduct performing arts activities at selected Leisure and Cultural Services Department civic centres.
Under the scheme, the department aims to develop Hong Kong's arts through collaboration with local arts organisations and artists. By establishing their presence at a civic centre over a period, local artists will better understand the tastes of local audiences, develop their communication skills and raise public interest in arts through artistic exchange, creative work and experimentation.
The scheme also helps project civic centres as the cultural focus of the community and encourage people to participate in arts activities. It will also enable people to come into contact with performing artists outside their stage performances, thus developing their understanding, interest in and appreciation of the arts.
Local registered non-profit making performing art organisations or ensembles of artists active in Hong Kong with three years of performance experience are invited to apply. They should also be experienced in promoting a specific art form, with proven artistic merit as well as good organisation ability.
The proposed activity should cover one or more of the performing art forms, including opera/operatic singing, dance, music, theatrical arts (including drama, mime, puppetry), film/videography/multi-media art. Activities can include performances, open rehearsals, workshops, demonstrations, lectures and exhibitions.
Guides and application forms are available at the following department cultural venues: Tsuen Wan Town Hall, Tuen Mun Town Hall, Kwai Tsing Theatre, Yuen Long Theatre, Sha Tin Town Hall, Tai Po Civic Centre, Ko Shan Theatre, Ngau Chi Wan Civic Centre, Sai Wan Ho Civic Centre and Sheung Wan Civic Centre. Interested artists may obtain the information by mail or fax from the Audience Building Office of Cultural Presentations Section, Leisure and Cultural Services Department at the Podium, Administration Building, Hong Kong Cultural Centre, 10 Salisbury Road, Tsim Sha Tsui, or it can be downloaded from the website:
Completed application forms should be submitted with supporting information and documents relevant to the proposed activity to the above office not later than 5.30pm on Friday, November 19, 2004. Please specify "Application for Artist-in-residence Scheme 2005/06" on the envelope.
For enquiries, please call 2268 7321.

Last week Rachel Brownell wrote a fantastic post about 10 Ways to Live Green for Less over on Babble.com. While her post was intended for the family audience, there are tips in there we all (with child or no) can take to the eco-bank.
A lot of the green tips that save that other green have to do with paying attention to what you eat. Consuming less red meat, chowing down on fewer processed foods and shopping for need, not as sport are particularly effective rules of living and eating to lower your carbon tooth print and your monthly bills. And of course she recommended that when we do go out to hunt and gather, we shop locally.
While we know that you, our BudgetEco reader knows the most efficient way by foot, bike or public transport to your local Farmer's Market, some people out there may not know where to shop off the grid in their neighborhoods. Another tip from Brownell led us to the USDA, which solves that quandary by providing a handy website, where you can locate wholesale and farmer's markets in your neck of the woods.
But that's not all our taxpayer dollars are doing on the USDA Site. They also give you tips on how to start your own market in case there isn't one already serving your area. Somebody's got to be the first in your town to step out and make a difference, why not you? Local grocery shopping is proving to be more earth-friendly than even organic, so now is the time to make it happen. No matter your urban environ, there's someone with a hot house of tomatoes and a pig or two to slaughter nearby, so check out the tips and make local all about you. What we're saying is, ASAP, go to the USDA's website.

There, she slowly transitioned from gathering requirements to developing full time, advocating the use of more open source in the government sector. It was at NASA that she gained an interest in 508 compliance. At first, she was only interested in getting her applications through QA faster. Over time, however, she gained a passion for a web that was easy for everyone to use. Now in the private sector, she is championing compliance even for websites that don't require it by law.

Visions of Creation
Media: Jewelry
A freelance writer penned an article on ROBERTO VENGOECHEA. The headline read: "Imagine Dr. Seuss meeting Salvador Dali ..." She continues: "Vengoechea's contemporary designs encompass both beauty and madness similar to Dali's style while defying acceptable 21st century jewelry traditions, with square, architectural and geometric shapes inspired by Spanish architect Antonio Gaudi."
Roberto Vengoechea is a self-taught designer and sculptor born in Colombia, South America. His 40 years of experience inspires one-of-a-kind sophisticated and contemporary fine jewelry featuring square, geometric and architectural shaped rings, hand fabricated and cast in precious metals, and incorporating fine colored gemstones and diamonds. He breaks away from the traditional round shank to create his own designs using these unique and distinctive shapes.
Open since December 1996, this contemporary jewelry gallery, owned by husband and wife, Roberto and June Vengoechea, is located in what Robert describes as "the artsy metropolis" of Black Mountain, just 15 minutes East of Asheville.

Nairobi — Former Nairobi Town Clerk Philip Kisia has now pulled out of the Orange Democratic Movement just as the party kicked off its primary polls.
Kisia was due to announce the party under which he will contest the Nairobi gubernatorial seat later on Thursday.
"I can confirm that I will be on the ballot paper in March 4 elections. The vehicle will be announced today," Kisia told Capital FM News on Thursday morning.
Sources revealed the move follows night-long meetings with party representatives, although no reason was given for the pull out.
A source close to Kisia's campaigns said he was likely headed to a party within the CORD coalition.

Escapees In Florida Court.....Not Coming Home Anytime Soon
The two felons that walked away from a correctional facility in Black River Falls only to be captured later in Florida, will not be coming back to the Badger state anytime soon.
Plans To Expand Winona Bridge Making Some Progress
The five-year anniversary of a deadly bridge collapse in Minneapolis has brought attention to the condition of other Minnesota bridges...
In Winona, Mayor Jerry Miller has been busy trying to work out repairs or a replacement of the aging river bridge. Miller says Winona is getting plenty of help from elected leaders, from the governor to U-S Senators.
Less than a year after the Twin Cities disaster, Winona's bridge was shut down for several days after the discovery of corroded gusset plates.
CouleeCap Gets Money To Tear Down Houses
4 houses in La Crosse will be demolished thanks in part to money awarded to Coulee Cap of La Crosse County. It's part of the state's Strategic Blight Elimination Program. Department of Financial Institutions Secretary, Peter Bildsten, explains what criteria has to be met before money's are handed down.
$1 million was given to 10 Wisconsin cities for demolition of blighted residential properties. The funds were made available from proceeds of the National Mortgage Settlement received earlier this year by DFI and DOJ.

Inmates Were Doing Good Before Fleeing BRF
A little more background on the prison that two inmates walked away from 2 weeks ago. The Black River Falls Correctional Facility accepts inmates with 6 months left on their prison terms and some actually were used to assist in the flood clean up in La Crosse a few years ago. Superintendent, David Andraskas. Says they get inmates ready to go back into the public.
He says they also help inmates get their GED diplomas. Both James Newman and James Mislevec were doing good in these programs before they walked away from the facility and were later captured in Florida. The two will be back in court in Florida tomorrow morning.

Colts beat Ravens 17-15 to go to 10-0
After a spike, Gradkowski found Murphy near the goal line. Murphy got loose from Morgan Trent and dived across the goal line for the tying score.
Just when it seemed as if the game was headed to overtime, Caldwell was stripped by Brandon Myers on the kickoff, giving the Raiders the ball at the 17.
Patriots 31, Jets 14
At Foxborough, Mass., the defense Bill Belichick didn't want to put on the field a week ago kept the offense of the Jets off it.
Leigh Bodden had three of the four interceptions thrown by Mark Sanchez and the Patriots' defense allowed just one touchdown and 226 yards. The victory gave them a two-game lead in the AFC East and sent the Jets (4-6) to their sixth loss in seven games.
Now the critics of the Patriots coach can take a week off.
They questioned Belichick for going on fourth-and-2 at his 28-yard line rather than punt to the Colts and hope his defense could stop Peyton Manning last Sunday night. The play failed and Manning and the Colts moved 29 yards to Manning's scoring pass and a decisive extra point in their 35-34 win.
Tom Brady completed 28 of 41 passes for 310 yards, his fifth straight game with more than 300. Wes Welker set career highs with 15 receptions for 192 yards. And Laurence Maroney ran for two touchdowns, his fifth consecutive game with at least one, for New England (7-3).
Vikings 35, Seahawks 9
At Minneapolis, Brett Favre completed a career-high 88 percent of his passes for 213 yards and four touchdown passes and the Vikings delivered their most complete performance of the season.
Favre completed 22 of his 25 throws for the Vikings (9-1). His previous career high was 85.2 percent against Detroit on Sept. 20. But he has only completed at least 80 percent two other times in his previous 18 seasons in the league.
Favre threw touchdown passes to Percy Harvin, Visanthe Shiancoe and Bernard Berrian in a 21-point second quarter that got the Vikings rolling, then finished his day with a 7-yard pass to Sidney Rice with 4 minutes to play in the third quarter. It was his 22nd career game with at least four touchdown passes, surpassing Dan Marino.
Nate Burleson had six catches for 100 yards for Seattle (3-7), which rushed for a franchise-low 4 yards on 13 carries. The injury-ravaged Seahawks have lost seven of their last nine.
Lions 38, Browns 37
At Detroit, an ailing Matthew Stafford threw his fifth touchdown pass from 1 yard to Brandon Pettigrew, and Jason Hanson's extra point with no time on the clock gave Detroit a thrilling win.
Detroit was given the untimed play because safety Hank Poteat was called for pass interference in the end zone when Stafford heaved a desperation attempt. Stafford was hit after his throw to the end zone and appeared to hurt his left shoulder or chest area. He was replaced by Daunte Culpepper.
The Browns, though, gave Stafford a chance to get back in the game by calling a timeout with the ball at the 1-yard line. Stafford returned and connected with fellow rookie Pettigrew to snap Detroit's six-game losing streak.

Puppy and Pumpkin Love
Last week we welcomed a little one into our home. This little one:
Photo of the day we brought her home from the shelter, via my Instagram. Follow me for more cute pics of our girl (and other joys)!
We're officially a family now.
Dear Tessa,
You're already aware of how much you're worth it to us. Even though you pee on the carpet… and outside… and in Petsmart.
You're so smart! So, we know you'll get the hang of it all. We're proud of you for waiting patiently for your food and for trying so hard not to cry in your crate. You've also mastered snoozing on the couch and licking peanut butter off the floor.
You've tested our patience and our sanity, but we're better for it. At least better at sacrificially standing in the cold grass at 6:30am. We don't know if you're half Beagle and half Corgi, but you've confirmed that you're 60% cuddle-loving, 10% psycho-energy bone-gnawing, and 30% ears. I hope you love your nicknames, Vacuum Lips and Little Deer. Even if you don't, we won't take them back.
Mom and Dad
In other exciting news, I think it's time for a good round-up, hodgepodge, list of favorite things.
Sometimes, it's nice to have gorgeous food (aka meal ideas) staring you in the face, instead of having to seek out recipes on your own. Often, I'm thrilled when somebody else gives me an interesting article to read, clever video to watch, or groove-tastic band to listen to without any effort on my part. Instant inspiration gratification, you know?
So, every once and a while I'll be contributing to the Pinterest-worthy link love posts that are common in the blog world. Get your Pin-It buttons ready! Some bloggers call this their "Friday Favorites", or a smattering of what they're "Crushing" on, or the "Grocery List" of things they hope to make in their own kitchens. I'll just call each round up posts a Collective.
This week, it's The November Foodie Collective. As in, please, lets shove as much pumpkin and squash and apples in our faces as possible. Cool? Here are a few things I've been drooling over/Pinning lately:
Side-note (#whatafreak #humble-brag): I adamantly rebel against the time-suck that is Pinterest (see Urban Dictionary #1) with my organized intentionality. Meaning: I try not to pin it unless I plan to make it/do it IN REAL LIFE. So basically, I use Pinterest to organize my life. If its a pancake recipe, it goes on the pancake board, not the baked goods board or the snacks board. #yikes
1. Pumpkin Beer Bread via Gimme Some Oven.
Beer is not my fave. Beer in bread is my absolute fave. Pumpkin beer and pumpkin puree in beer bread? Genius. Give me a buttered slice with my soup, please!
2. Apple Cider Pancakes with Maple Cider Syrup via Iowa Girl Eats.
Sounds like perfection for a lazy, chilly, weekend morning.
3. This Fall Recipe Idea Roundup by Naturally Ella for using your favorite fall ingredients, from Brussels Sprouts to Sweet Potatoes.
So much nutritious, glorious fall food!
4. Pumpkin Buckwheat Bake for Two via Edible Perspective
I made these a few weeks ago and it was really yummy, especially topped with peanut butter. Really, I'm just working my way through every "Breakfast Friday" recipe that Ashley posts on her gorgeous blog. We speak the same food language.
5. Pumpkin Hummus via Pinch of Yum
I made this for a little get together to celebrate Jordan's birthday and it was a hit!
6. Chicken and Biscuits Pot Pie via Buttered Side Up
It's on our menu this week. I'm just waiting on the cold front. Check out that steam!
I could go on forever! This is truly the best cookin' and eatin' season. So, get your pumpkin on. And your puppy lovin' on. If you don't have one… find one and kiss it! (But don't be creepy.)

This exquisitely crafted collection includes several stories set in Kenya, offering tantalizing glimpses of life in that troubled but fascinating country beyond the picturesque game parks. In ?Mistaken Identity,? a blunder by an American groom-to-be at a traditional Kikuyu engagement ceremony lands him in hot water with his fiancé. ?Something Small? depicts the inner struggles of a man trying to remain honest amid a culture of corruption. In ?Departure,? an expatriate returning to Nairobi for a visit discovers her brother's plans to raze the family home. Despairing of changing his mind, she sets off on what she expects will be a nostalgic voyage to the coast via the overnight train. Sadly typical of the Kenya to which she has come back, however, the elegant conveyances of her youth now exist only in her memory, and her journey becomes a grim test of her endurance.| The book concludes with the very poignant title story, ?Wanderers.? The story hinges on an act of kindness shown by one nocturnal wanderer, a man whose life appears on the verge of unraveling, to another, his one-time law school professor, a formerly imposing figure whom age has left frail and disoriented.

THE Namibia National Olympic Committee has budgeted N$5 million to prepare for the next Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in 2016.
This budget will only cater for athletes who make the grade for the Rio Games, according to NNOC secretary general Abner Xoagub.
The qualified athletes are expected to prepare sufficiently with these funds in order to be in a position to challenge for honours at the global spectacle.
With the exception of Johanna Benson's surprise Paralympic Games medal double, Namibia failed to make headway at the 2012 Olympics.
"What we are asking for is very moderate. We looked at the athlete quota we had for the London Games and added 10 percent. If it happens that we have a team qualifying then we will have to adjust the budget accordingly," Xoagub said.
Namibia's limited budget arguably mirrors the expectations and interests of those at the helm of sport in the country.
Xoagub admitted as much, saying that that while they required significantly more funds than the submitted amount, the likelihood that it would be approved by the purse holders was slim.
In comparison, South Africa's Sport and Olympic Committee (Sascoc) has asked for R400 million to help boost their athletes' competitiveness at the next Olympic Games.
The funds would be primarily used to enable South Africa's elite athletes to be part of high-level competitions in Europe over the next four years.
Nigerian president Goodluck Johnathan is said to have thrown his weight behind his country's aspirations for 2016. Nigeria's sport ministry has reportedly asked for 7 billion Naira (about N$328 million) to ensure improved results at the Games.
Further afield, the United Kingdom has pledged 508 million pounds.

This is important.
I know that Dell and Gateway used to ship, by default, with the Geforce 4 MX. It's important to understand WHAT the Geforce 4 MX is.
It is
TWO Geforce 2 Ultra
graphics processing units, tied together. Kind of like SLI (scanned line interleaved), but with two GF2's rather than two Voodoo2's. Each processor does "half" of the work. But it's still just a Geforce 2. Which supported DirectX 6.0. Which did NOT have a pixel shader, nor a vertex shader. So, to improve performance on the card, Nvidia put a bridge chip on it. It interprets the DirectX7 calls, and converts them into something DirectX6 can work with. On the outside of the Geforce 4 MX box, it will say it "supports DirectX 7.0".
That's like saying the US supports the International Space station. Sure, we
, if we had Shuttles that were cleared for flight. So, in reality, we ALMOST support the Internation Space station. We, like, totally support it emotionally.
A Geforce 2 MX is it's own processor. Nvidia took the Geforce 2 GTS chip, cut out cache, replaced what was left with full-speed cache (just like a Duron or Celeron chip), and sold it. The Geforce 4 MX is two GF2 Ultra chips, tied together and with a DirectX 7.0 bridge.
This means that games like Knights of the Old Republic, which make HEAVY USE OF PIXEL AND VERTEX SHADERS, will utterly saturate that Geforce 4 MX. Your CPU will be doing software shading. You don't have a hardware accelerator, you have a software shader. Even though you might select "Direct 3D device" in the menu, the computer is using the CPU to paint the pretty pictures.
A Geforce 4 Ti4200 is a "true" DirectX 8.0 card. It support pixel shader version 1.1. The Geforce 3 supports Pixel shader v1.0 (DirectX 7.0). DirectX 8.1 moves up to pixel shader v1.4.
Same thing with a "Winmodem". It's not a real modem; your CPU is doing 90% of the work. The modem is just a DAC (digital-to-analog-converter) for the phone line. Winmodems are nearly as worthless as a Geforce 4 MX.
I'm not trying to harsh you, here. There's a lot of people that bought Geforce 4 MX cards, simply because they had 128meg of memory. Which was more memory than the Geforce 4 Ti4200's 64meg (when they first came out). Your 1.6ghz Pentium4 is doing ALL of the graphics work on that game. If you buy a Geforce4 Ti4200 (64meg), you will notice an enormous boost in the playability of that game.

You were right after all. After a while it does get back to its old habits.
What amazed me the most is the fact that after the 15 min trick, this on-off feeling/problem that these guys (
) are trying to figure for such a long time and with such an enormous amount of collective time spent, was not there.
For a while the bike showed me that it is indeed capable of running smooth, unlike what the following very interesting post suggested a while ago:
, however something happens with the adjusting process of the ECU after a while.
Same thing happens after a long road trip where you are running for more than an hour constantly with more than 4-5K rpm. If you take a break for a while, once you get back on the bike everything runs very smooth.
If on the other hand you are running within city limits the "self - correction" that the ECU does, sends the throttle response all over the place.

Although it takes some careful planning, it is easy to arrange to spend a semester studying abroad, and the School of Engineering is committed to making it as easy as possible for students interested in this unique opportunity. In the academic years 2012-2014, over twenty engineering students spent a semester abroad at a variety of programs in England, Spain, France, Germany, and Italy. Over the past five years, an average of slightly more than 12 students per year have studied abroad. In previous years, students have also enrolled in engineering studies in New Zealand, Brazil, Hong Kong, and several other countries.
Because of the large number of requirements in the Sc.B. engineering degree, study abroad needs to be planned carefully, and students should start thinking about this as early as possible, preferably during your first semester of your sophomore year. In many cases, it is relatively easy to find classes at foreign universities that can be used for engineering concentration credit, but each of these courses must be approved before a student travels to ensure that it meets the scope and standards of the Brown-based course.
Brown University organizes several programs, and our students have participated in:
- Brown in U.K.: London, Edinburgh, Lancaster, Manchester, Glasgow, Cambridge, King's College
- Brown in France: Paris V (courses in French), Ecole Central Paris (some courses in French, some in English)
- Brown in Italy: Bologna, Rome
- Brown in Spain: Barcelona, Cantabria (courses offered in both Spanish and in English)
- Brown in Hong Kong
In addition, engineering students can petition to join study abroad programs that are coordinated by other universities, Council on International Education (CIEE) and Institute for Study Abroad, Butler University (IFSA-Butler). In the past few years students have studied in:
- Australia: Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, New South Wales
- Ireland: Galway, Dublin, Belfast
- South Africa: Cape Town
- New Zealand: Auckland
- Germany: Dresden
- China: Beijing
- Singapore
- Greece: Athens
- Turkey: Istanbul
If you are interested in study abroad, think about when you want to go abroad and plan, get the information you need and what classes you need to take in order to ensure that your engineering curriculum at Brown is not disrupted. Please consult with your concentration advisor. In many cases, the study abroad program will have similar classes that you can use as a substitute for the Brown course, but you must get approval before you go abroad from your concentration advisor.
For additional questions, please feel free to talk with the School of Engineering's liaison with the Office of International Programs:
Professor Joseph Liu
Barus & Holly 429
E-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com
The Office of International Programs maintains a wealth of study abroad information and often organizes general informational sessions.

Call Us to Find a Therapist: 1-888-563-2112 ext.1
Find a Therapist on Your Own:
Anorexia nervosa (AN) is an eating issue that has been shown to be especially hard to treat. Even when clients are admitted for inpatient treatment, diet and nutrition remain significant obstacles for improving outcomes. One reason for this could be inconsistency in diet among hospitals. There is no specific diet regimen designed to improve body mass index, vitamin deficiency, or overall caloric intake for people with AN. But other factors also contribute to the maintenance of AN, including excessive exercising. Janine Higgins of the School of Medicine at the Department of Pediatrics at the University of Colorado wanted to find out if diet or exercise, or both, predicted inpatient treatment for AN in a group of young women.
Reduction of calories directly affects energy and can impact how much exercise a person performs. Higgins theorized that women at risk for inpatient treatment would be those who consume the fewest calories and expend the most energy through physical activity. To test this theory, Higgins reviewed surveys from 20 women ranging in age from 11 to 19. The women reported their exercise and caloric intake during the six months prior to being admitted.
Higgins found that in general, the women did not decrease their caloric consumption in the week prior to entering the facility. However, they did increase their exercise by almost four times prior to being hospitalized. Higgins also discovered that macronutrient deficiency was evident in most of the women. In particular, the women had decreased their supplement intake over the six months preceding hospitalization, but had extremely low levels of Vitamin A and Vitamin D consumption the week prior to being admitted.
In sum, these findings show that women at risk for hospitalization for AN may be those who focus most on burning calories, rather than restricting them. Even though caloric intake was low for all the women, those who did get hospitalized were most likely to have no drastic changes in caloric intake, but significant changes in exercise prior to needing inpatient care.
Perhaps the low levels of macronutrient absorption also put these women at heightened risk for intensive treatment. Higgins added, "Physical activity and Vitamin A and D intake should be carefully monitored following initial AN diagnosis, as markers of disease progression as to potentially minimize the risk of medical instability."
Higgins, J., Hagman, J., Pan, Z., MacLean, P. (2013). Increased Physical Activity Not Decreased Energy Intake Is Associated with Inpatient Medical Treatment for Anorexia Nervosa in Adolescent Females. PLoS ONE 8(4): e61559. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0061559

gives us fitness freaks a bad name!there is nothing wrong with exercising,even when done a lot.but when that changes rapidly in quick time with no supervision it may mean the person is trying to achieve too much in too little time.and just as always,there are no shortcuts when it comes to health.exercise is good but when it is done sensibly,people!
But wouldn't you rather see more increases in exercise instead of more restriction of food?

Explore the Entrepreneurship.org Resource Center to find resources. Designed with entrepreneurs in mind, our resource center allows you to find materials to grow great ideas.
Entrepreneurs need to be creative and innovative not only with their product or service, but also with how they think about their business model. In life science and digital health, understanding one's value proposition is key. But it's not always obvious - especially considering to whom the value proposition is most compelling. For this exercise, I find Alex Osterwalder's Value Proposition Canvas particularly helpful.
Let's walk through a fictitious example together. Entrepreneur Sally has developed a cure for Shiny Object Syndrome, a condition that makes it very difficult to focus on the task at hand. The prevalence of Shiny Object Syndrome is high, with more than 50 percent of entrepreneurs afflicted by the condition at various levels of severity. But who is Sally's customer for her cure, FocusX? Primary care physicians? Payers? Entrepreneurs? Employers? The question Sally must answer is: To whom is the value proposition most compelling?
After talking to these customer groups, Sally realizes that few believe Shiny Object Syndrome is a real problem. That makes the value of FocusX difficult to quantify. Discouraged at first, Sally decides to develop a robust methodology to measure productivity in the workplace and quantify the associated revenue gains. She decides to offer FocusX to employers – free of charge – in exchange for 10 percent of the productivity gains. With a business model structure that is very attractive to employers, several large employers sign up immediately.
Hopefully this silly example is helpful as you begin to develop new approaches for harvesting the value you're creating as a life science or digital health entrepreneur. If you want to learn more about business models and the associated concepts, take a look at these short animated videos.

text: This project was the first time I had experimented with using vignettes within dry trap varnishes. Since extra press time is needed to apply dry trap vanish, and for die cutting, my production time was what had to crunch. Yet time was needed to create varnish plates that would perform as I intended. I encountered a challenge when it was decided that an inside front pocket was needed; I didn't want to cut into the image to create the pocket so I die cut around the image. I kept the motion effects on the inside cover behind the pocket to give a 3-dimensional effect.

Mizzou Tickets On Sale, Mizzou Unis On Point
Categories: Aaron Schafer, Mizzou
First off, for anyone interested, Tigers' SEC home game tickets will go on sale tonight at 6 pm on the Missouri Tigers' website. Considering the size of Faurot Field compared to even the average SEC stadium and the way SEC teams tend to travel, I would recommend you get your tickets as early as possible. They won't last long.
The home games on the slate for Mizzou this year are: September 8th against Georgia, October 6th against Vanderbilt, October 13th versus Alabama, and Homecoming on October 27th against Kentucky. Non-conference game tickets are already on sale.
The other thing I would like to point out is that the Tigers' new uniforms (Nike has taken over the uni contract), were recently named the sixth-best in college football by complex.com, a very cool design website. (The Oregon Ducks take home top honors, which shouldn't be too surprising, considering all the attention the Ducks' unis grabbed during bowl season.)
Personally, I think Mizzou should have been a spot or two higher; I'm not particularly fond of the Arkansas uniforms, and the Northwestern colors are kind of iffy as well. But that's splitting hairs. The fact is, the Tigers' new Nike threads are wicked cool. I particularly love the angled tiger stripes on the uni pants; that's a very cool look. I love the dark helmets with the large yellow tiger graphic, but I will miss the large M on the side. The glossy black helmets with the yellow center stripe don't really do it for me.
|Tell me those wouldn't look amazing with the Mizzou M on the side.
I'm hoping in the near future the Tigers come up with a helmet in that sweet dark mirror finish the Oregon team sported last year; put the large M on the side of one of those, combine it with the big yellow tiger as an alternate, and you've got pretty much perfect uniforms. Or just do the large tiger in the dark mirror look as well. Either way.
See, this is a really perfect avenue of discussion for me; I can talk about what is essentially fashion but still keep my testosterone levels up because it's also football. This, ladies and gentlemen, is what they refer to as, "The Zone." Or The Groove. I don't quite remember which one.
In similar fashion, I'm now going to go rebuild the engine in my Camaro while wearing assless leather pants and listening to the new Scissor Sisters record. It's going to be a good day.

Simply put, I expect more from the Colts. They've been an elite franchise for a full decade now, and while Peyton Manning deserves a lot of credit for that, Bill Polian has been a key piece of that puzzle as well. But if this draft is any indication, the Colts are quickly headed in the wrong direction.
Jerry Hughes definitely had value in the late 1st round, so I can't argue with the pick too much, but the Colts had other needs. Hughes will only be a backup to Dwight Freeney and Robert Mathis early in his career. In time, he could certainly prove to be worth a late-1st-round pick, but I don't see him playing a significant role in helping them win another Super Bowl in the next 2-3 years. At least not as long as Freeney and Mathis are around.
In the 2nd round the Colts reached way off the board for Pat Angerer. I love the way he plays the game, but he's simply not a 2nd-round pick. To make matters worse, he doesn't fill a need. He'll likely begin his career on special teams and as a backup to Gary Brackett.
Kevin Thomas finally filled a need, but the Colts didn't need another a mid-round cornerback on the roster. He'll add to their depth, but ultimately he'll just blend in with the mediocre play of Jacob Lacey, Jerraud Powers and Kelvin Hayden.
If Thomas and Angerer were reaches, I'm not sure what to call the selection of Jacques McClendon. They really didn't need to add depth on the offensive line. What they needed was an upgrade at one or more of the positions on the line. McClendon won't provide that; at least not immediately.
Brody Eldridge was yet another terrible reach. I wasn't surprised to see them select a tight end, but there were plenty of others that would have been a better fit. They have a solid one-two punch with Clark (the pass-catcher) and Santi (the blocker). Eldrige will have a hard time making the roster. Even Gijon Robinson and Jacob Tamme have a leg up on him right now.
The Colts needed a defensive tackle, but they needed an upgrade, not more depth. Ricardo Mathews will struggle to earn playing time behind backups Fili Moala and Eric Foster, let alone starters Antonio Johnson and Daniel Muir.
Kavell Conner is vastly undersized, but he was productive in college. He'll likely be given a chance to compete for playing time at strong-side linebacker. Its one of the weakest positions on the Colts defense, so he just may earn a roster spot. That said, this was a position that needed to be addressed earlier in the draft.
I think Ray Fisher was a great 7th-round pick. He'll be buried on the cornerback depth chart, but he's an explosive return specialist. He may turn out to be the only Colts rookie to make a significant impact as a rookie.
Overall, this was a very disappointing draft for the Colts. Even if some of their picks turn into quality players down the road, they needed to add some immediate help. The window of opportunity to win another Super Bowl with Peyton Manning is closing fast. He's 34 years old and Colts should have done more to surround him with players that can help them win immediately. The offensive line struggled in the Super Bowl and was a weakness all season long. They should have added more than Jacques McClendon to help fix that issue. Additionally, they could have used an early-round cornerback or strong-side linebacker. If i didn't like Jerry Hughes as much as I do, this draft would deserve a failing grade.

Britain's Got Talent 2013 judge Amanda Holden has defended the amount of singers on the ITV series.
The BGT finalists were all confirmed last night as Attraction and Jordan O'Keefe became the latest acts to make it through the live heats.
But it means there are now six vocalists in the line up of ten acts competing for the £250,000 prize and a spot on the Royal Variety Performance.
Despite voting to send through singer Jordan over ventriloquist Steve Hewlett on last night's semi-final, Amanda said: "We left it to the public, they wanted Jordan so that was the right decision.
"You can't argue with the public's decision."
However Amanda said she'd be championing Steve for the wildcard spot for the final next weekend.
She added: "I love Steve and I love variety and I will be arguing for him as the wild card later.
"We'll have an argument about this later, we'll decide [the wildcard] tonight."
Alesha meanwhile backed one of the dance acts to take the extra spot next week, naming trio CEO Dancers and Joseph Hall as her favourites.
The Britain's Got Talent 2013 final airs Saturday, June 8 on ITV.

Top 5 Free Racing Games for AndroidAuthored by: Loie Favre — May 30, 2013
Many souls out there are thankful for smartphones and the hours of boredom that they can save while sitting in the bus, waiting in a Dr's office or ''patiently'' tagging along with a shopping girlfriend. One of many people's favorite kind of games to play are racing games. The concept, though it remains the same, is constantly being tweaked in different ways and you find yourself racing in different terrains with various trucks and cars. Here are the top free 5 racing games from the Google Play store. Take a look!
Fast & Furious 6: the Game
This movie series has managed to create an army of drooling fans who crave decked out cars. Fast & Furious 6 recently came out in theaters and grossed $98.5 million. It's no wonder that this app not only tops the charts of this list, but is also second in Google Play store's Top New Free apps. The point of the game is to earn cash and ''respect'' by being the fastest driver in drift and drag races. It's set in the streets of London and is made up of amazing graphics (we expected nothing less).
So far, there has been more than 1 million installations in the last 30 days. I really liked the fact that the cars offered in this game aren't just the newest ones. They also have some awesome classics to bring to the streets. This game keeps the player motivated through the various jobs/heists that the crew of drivers need to pull off. Get Michelle Rodriguez and Vin Diesel in the mix, this game is golden.
Turbo Racing League
Take a step back from the dirty streets of London and a step forward into the world of Dreams Works' Turbo Racing League. From the same developers who made Into the Dead and Oreo: Twist, Lick, Dunk, they bring a game where you race a snail on wheels. Based off of the movie that will surely smash the box office when it hits theaters on July 17th, you can race through 9 tracks and compete in events like time trials, slalom and rival races. Like any other racing game, you get to pimp your ride and here, you can customize your shell's color and upgrade it too. Looks like there's a contest for real money too, which you can win by completing daily goals. This contest goes from May 16th to the movie's release on May 17th.
Dirt Road Trucker 3D
In the game, you don't race against others directly, however you can compare your performance with other players. The point of the game is to drive your old bucket of bolts stalked full of cargo through bouncy, rugged and obstacle-filled roads. You're able to steer your truck by either tilting your device, virtual steering wheel or on-screen touch pad. Dirt Road Trucker 3D has also racked up more than 1 million installations, which makes it one of the top new games. The different levels are set in various countries, which look like the USA, Vietnam and Thailand. Definitely a fun one to try.
Pocket Rally LITE
First off, a major hats off to the developers for realizing some awesome graphics (superb landscapes) that ''don'' the screens of smartphones all over the world. At only 25 MB, this game might not have all the bells and whistles like Fast and Furious 6, but Pocket Rally Lite offers plain old fun that is in line with the classic rally racing games that we all love. With 4 control modes and 3 camera angles, race through either challenge or single race modes and see how well you drove in replay mode. Want a no-fuss game? This could be the one for you.
Race Illegal: High Speed 3D
Like Fast and Furious 6, Race Illegal: High Speed 3D is a racing game that offers you a ''career'' as a street racer where you start off at the bottom of the barrel and work your way up. By winning against opponents and stalking up with dough, you'll be able to earn respect in over 20 races and with the choice of 9 different pimped out rides. Like many of this more ''realistic'' genre, you'll need to drive the cars with shifting up and down. You won't get through this game in a matter of hours, it will last you days and provide you with some great driving entertainment along the away.
Have you tried any of these racing games yet? If you have, which one did you like? Do you know of any others that could be added to the list?

In Afghanistan, Marines are using dogs for everything from sniffing out roadside bombs to pursuit of the enemy to search and rescue. They're not just add-ons, Marines say, they're part of the team. As one Marine told a New York Times reporter: "We consider the dog another Marine."

The Nike+ FuelBand
While Nike might have beat competitors like the MotoACTV and Jawbone Up to the active bracelet market over two years ago, its original endeavor, the Nike+ SportBand, was getting long in the tooth.
That changes today with the introduction of the far sleeker Nike+ FuelBand. It's much in the vein of the original, except boasts a more attractive 20 LED dot-matrix display and can measure activity in a new unit the company calls NikeFuel.
That latter bit is a normalized score that unlike calories "awards equal points for the same activity regardless of physical makeup."
We'll have to see about that, but we're definitively smitten with its design and that row of colorful LEDs that progressively fills as one gets closer to reaching their intended goal.
The $149 pre-orders go live on the company's online store at 5PM ET, but those interested ought to peep the PR and video after the break.

IT'S a new way to set off the brightest fireworks in the sky. Intense bursts of gamma rays can come from smashing the exposed cores of two stars into each other.
The usual explanation for longer gamma-ray bursts is that they occur when old, massive stars collapse into black holes. If the star is spinning very fast, high-speed jets of matter get blown into space, sending out radiation.
But stars spin more slowly as they age, casting doubt on the idea. So Edward van den Heuvel of the University of Amsterdam, the Netherlands, and colleagues modelled two stellar cores orbiting each other. They found that if the stars collide at an angle, they would fuse into a fast-spinning object that then explodes, emitting gamma rays (arxiv.org/abs/1303.6961).
Such collisions are likely only in dense star clusters in dwarf galaxies, the team says, so Earth is safe from being seared.

NASA to try carbon satellite launch on WednesdayJuly 1st, 2014 in Astronomy & Space / Space Exploration
The United Launch Alliance Delta II rocket with the Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 (OCO-2) satellite onboard, on June 30, 2014 at Vandenberg Air Force Base, California
The US space agency will try again on Wednesday to launch a satellite designed to track carbon dioxide, a leading greenhouse gas that is responsible for global warming.
The first bid to send the Orbiting Carbon Observatory-2 to space was aborted at the last minute on Tuesday, after engineers discovered a problem with water flow to the launch pad.
The next attempt is now set for Wednesday at 2:56 am Pacific time (0956 GMT) from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California.
NASA's two previous bids to send a carbon-tracking spacecraft into orbit failed due to rocket malfunctions in 2009 and 2011.
This time, NASA switched to a different type of rocket, the Delta 2, but an issue with the water suppression system to the launch pad caused engineers to halt the process at 46 seconds before liftoff early Tuesday.
"Pending the outcome of troubleshooting, the launch is rescheduled for Wednesday," NASA announced on its website.
The launch window is quite short, just 30 seconds.
The timing has to be precise so that the satellite could join the A-Train, a constellation of five other international Earth-observing satellites.
