A real "wow" experience! Visiting during the shoulder season was great - not much tourists around and we had many of the giants to ourselves.
The scenery, especially in fall, is spectacular! The air is fresh and crisp, scented with wood smoke and the trees cloaked in reds, yellows and orange...nature's wonders compare to any place on earth. During the fall there is a sense of solitude that truly lends itself to viewing these marvelous giants. Without the usual crowds of tourists you can really appreciate the show Mother Nature puts on for you. The road off the 198 is twisting but the views are better appreciated at the 25 mpg speed limit imposed for the last few miles into the Park's entrance. To really see and appreciate this great park you should allow a minimum of 6-8 hours. If you bring picnics be prepared to secure your food items in the bear storage lockers...the park provides these lockers for a good reason. We saw fox, bluebirds, golden eagles, hawks and rabbits and some deer.
Every American should see this part of our natural heritage. It is a place of beauty, peace, that can inspire harmony with the earth around us. I love going there to feel small. The National Park Service has done a tremendous job of making this park accessible. It is clean and safe. Please put this on your vacation plans.
The Sequoia's aren't just a national treasure they are a magnificent reminder of our insignificance and, ultimately, our vital importance. Without good people fighting for and maintaining these silent giants they would be a black and white photo in a museum or several stumps to teach schoolchildren how to count the age of trees long dead. I can't tell you how humbling a stroll through these wonderful trees are without reminding you that I am a deep cynic. I am not easily impressed nor am I even remotely sentimental which is freakish in an Irish person. But I am brought to my knees by their beauty and quiet dignity. Please do yourself a favour and visit. At least once in your life. They are no where else but in wonderfully diverse California and whoever put them there definitely had a sense of humour. Avoid the high hotel charges locally however and stay somewhere in the San Joaquin Valley. All the hotels in the area are VERY dear and really not all that great.
This place is a must if you're in the area. I was absolutely amazed by the views, including the giant sequoia trees and the mountains. Completely breathtaking. Will remember this for a long long time.

Salsa is the best.... Its healthy...but watch out for those doritos etc if you are going to use the salsa as a dip. Strips of cucumber and carrots make a healthy alternative.

A beautiful dish. It is nice with heirloom tomatoes as a side for grilled meats-forget the naughty Doritos! I often use pompadams cooked over an open flame.

Mustache Master
Parks and Recreation Star Nick Offerman Writes About His Plush Patch of Manliness
This news pleased me little. I involuntarily crushed the iPhone in my hand into dust, this despite the hardy White Oak case I had painstakingly carved for it. Why can no one see what a nightmare these whiskers make of my life? Soon after I learned of this "honor," my doorbell rang. Mr. Tom Selleck had sent over an enormous congratulatory yak, smoking a cigar. Impressive, Tom, but misguided. Sam Elliott sent me a text that read, "I reckon you et the bar this time, pard," whatever the hell that's supposed to mean. And Burt Reynolds sent me a Corvette with the words, "All You, Baby!" painted on the trunk. You son of a bitch. Pardon me, as I count to 10...8. 9. 10. All right. Look. I can't begin to describe my frustration at receiving accolades for this facial bane. My mustache! You think it's a good time, seeing a woman countenance my visage and swoon, only to fall beneath the crushing wheels of a Sunset Strip Hummer? Wrong. When I'm standing in line at the bank, and it's held up by six men with clown masks and AK-47s, do you think it's a fun chuckle when everyone turns expectantly to me, assuming somehow that my insanely lush mustache will kickass all of us to safety? It's not a chuckle, PEOPLE, not by a long shot. Those dead clowns are most certainly not chuckling. When a press junket for Parks and Recreation took me overseas to Valhalla, this royal Norseman, Odin, said he wanted to reward me for the power of my facial bear. Okay, fine. He handed me some crappy, little sledgehammer and said, "Wield it justly." His kid Thor (of course his name was Thor) comes over and starts crying at my feet, mewling something over and over that sounded like "mjolnir, my mjolnir..." I picked him up and lightly bludgeoned him with the hammer, and he completely lost it. Full-on tantrum. It was a tiny, little tap, seriously, he was being a total baby. Odin said, "My son fills me with shame. I have only ever wanted him to display facial hairs half as magnificent as those upon your mouth, but, alas, he remains practically clean-shaven. Why, he's no more man than Hawkeye," whom I'm assuming is a Norwegian musician, like ABBA? It was mighty awkward is what it was. They certainly do things differently in Europe. Anyway. My point is, simply, that I appreciate the gesture, but this mustache does not strike me as "sexy" in any way. It strikes me as a pain in my hairy ass. Where's my trophy for that? And finally, Tom Selleck, I thank you for the yak. It is robust, and I will consume it.

At Pac-12 Media Days next month, UCLA will be represented by center Jake Brendel and cornerback Fabian Moreau.
The event expanded to two days for the first time in 2014, and will remain in that format at Warner Bros. Studios in Burbank on July 30-31. Head coach Jim Mora and his two players are scheduled to speak on the first day at 10:50 a.m.
The Bruins have customarily brought veteran players to the conference's first major press event of the season, and this year is no exception. Brendel is an easy pick as a team captain, one who has started 39 of 40 possible games in the middle of the offensive line.
That Moreau is attending rather than linebacker Myles Jack is a bit of a surprise, but the cornerback is one of the few seniors with starting experience. The former running back was a second-team All-Pac-12 selection last season, but put together an underwhelming campaign given his preseason hype.

Do we have Nalla's pictures on Tigernation? Also, were the cubs there when Satra and Sitara got into the fight?
Satra (Sundari)
Satra doesn't shy away from a fight. As an adventurous cub, she explored the outer limits of her territory, and learning from her strong mother Machali, she soon took over a territory of her own and challenged any who got in her way. But she has had to fight to stay in power – even her own mother has been driven out of her lands by her plucky daughter.
But until recently, though she has succeeded in exerting her dominance over all the other females in the park, Satra has not yet reached one of her biggest milestones as a tigress – to raise cubs. She enjoys the company of four different mates but only in May 2012 did she have 3 cubs at nearly six years of age. It is thought that fellow star male Dollar, an adoptive father in his own right, is the father of Satra's litter.
However after a fight with a rival male this winter, to protect her cubs, she moved from her prime habitat and has not been seen for a week from late April 2013.
Is she still alive? Why has she left her cubs?
Satra was the dominant one in the litter from the very start. By December in 2007, she'd started exploring her territory for days-on-end, while her other two sisters stayed with the mother. By early 2008, Satra had established a small territory around the base of the Ranthambhore Fort, while her two sisters were still living with their mother. Occasionally Satra would go back to the family, despite already being a capable hunter on her own. Finally, by the summer of 2008, Satra had become totally independent, with her two sisters taking another few months to separate from their mother.
In the summer of 2008, there were serious efforts to relocate tigers from Ranthambhore to Sariska (a reserve close by that had lost all its tigers to poaching), and a number of tigers were identified for this relocation – Sharmelee and Satra among them. As part of the process, the selected tigers were fitted with a radio tracking collar. Sharmelee was relocated to Sariska in early July, leaving the Lakkarda area open for Sundari or one of her sisters to take over. But this was not to be. Satra was never moved to Sariska, and her radio collar was finally taken off in November 2011.
During the winter of 2008, Satra was confident enough to expand her territory. To everyone's surprise she started fighting with her mother Machali for territory. This war of succession ended in Satra's favour, after Machali left the area of the lakes to establish her base in Lakkarda, where she still lives today.
Soon, Satra took over most of Machali's territory except for two small parts - Lakkarda, which was left for her mother, and parts of Mandoop, which her sister Unnis took over. Her third sister, Athara, had just established her territory in the Phoota Kot area, when she too was relocated to Sariska.
Since then, Satra has been ruling the area of the lakes and an impressively large adjoining territory. For the last three years, she has been the most frequently seen tiger in Ranthambhore. Like her mother, Satra is certainly not shy of vehicles and often gets too close for some people's comfort.
We've often seen Satra mate with one of four different males, but she showed no signs of bearing a litter. She always shared her territory with three different males (T12, T25 and Sitara earlier, and now Sultanpur, following T12's move to Sariska) and it may be a case of tiger politics that she has deliberately not had cubs.
During early summer 2011, Satra started expanding into the Kachida valley after the dominant female there (T5) died. Satra now has one of the largest territories among the females in Ranthambhore National Park - a territory rivalled in size only by that of her sister Unnis.
After much speculation and a number of years playing one male off against another, Satra finally had three cubs in early May 2012, and it is believed Dollar (T25) is the father.
At the end of the season, in late June 2012, she exhibited her cubs to the world, just before the park closure and monsoon broke. For the next six months Satra gamefully showed off her charges as they grew up under the glare of publicity.
However in late December she fought with Sitara (T28) who was not happy about her progeny's ancestry and she had to protect them from him. Her fighting injury was severe and needed veterinary intervention. Soon to protect her cubs she moved them away from her territory to the western borders near Kachida under Dollar's protection. From there she started to wander into the nearby farmlands causing must consternation for the department.
As of late April, she has been missing for a number of days and her cubs have been calling for her often.
Follow Satra and her three cubs. Has she survived and now will her cubs survive if she doesn't?

Satra's cubs - a viable future? by Julian Matthews
Tiger: Satra
Reserve: Ranthambhore, Rajasthan
Correct Imtiaz. I believe nalla captured much of it on camera so is a reliable witness to events.
Sitara and satra got into argument during sharing of meal killed by satra. During the fight both sitara and satra got injured. Thats the reason she moved the cubs away from sitara's area.
If it's possible that Sitara is the cubs dad why were he and Satra fighting to the point of Satra being injured so badly that she needed veterinary intervention. Also, why would she risk moving them into Dollars territory if he was not the cubs dad? Or was this a calculated risk that she was able to take because she had mated with a number of males so therefore each male believes he is the father?
I always believed that she moved out from rajbagh lake only to save her cubs from sitara
I for one am very pleased that Satra's poor cubs are being looked after in some way. And if what Julian says about the father being Sitara rather than Dollar, then it is the only way they will will thrive. I wish them all the luck in the world. (I am still pining for Satra!).
This is a contentious one, but it is now thought that Sitara was really the father, and not Dollar, even though she eventually moved her cubs out of his domain. Satra always played the field as a young lady so its a tough call, but whatever happened she got divorced from Sitara (T28) !!
Considering that Dollar is their father, is he also a danger to them?

Concern grows over Satra's whereabouts by Julian Matthews
Tiger: Satra
Reserve: Ranthambhore, Rajasthan
I cannot bear to think that this magnificent tigress is dead. She was so beautiful and full of charisma. Loved her so much and still do, and always will.
I've heard that she is now dead sadly! I am so sad!
It does seem that the longer Satra is missing the more likely it is that her disappearance may be as a result of coming into conflict with local people because she had taken their livestock.
I know we want to be optimistic but its clear that feeding on easy meals of the village could have led to her disappearance coz of the villagers's tendency to poisoning the livestock to kill the tiger!! I just hope that Dollar takes over the role that he took with the last litter...Satra "was" my favourite tigress too!!
This is very worrying, i keep telling myself that she's o.k. & she'll return to her cubs soon. It just doesn't seem right that one of Ranthambores princesses can just disappear. I truly hope that the worst hasn't happened as that would be a tragedy & a huge loss to everyone. Thanks to everyone involved
This is a very sad report. It will be a tragedy if Satra is found dead. It tugs at your heart to think of her cubs distressed and calling for her. Surely their only hope for survival if Satra is dead is Dollar taking over mum's role.I can understand the forest guards wanting to help by feeding the cubs but surely this won't help them in the long term. Lets hope that Satra is found alive and well.
This is terrible news. She was such a favourite of mine, I love her deeply, as we saw her so many times in Ranthambhore and she always gazed at our jeep nonchalantly, far too bold to worry about us! I pray she is alright, and I feel for her cubs. Poor Satra, come home!
Please let hope that they find Satra alive, her cubs are not old enough to survive without her yet, it will be a terrible tragedy if they find her dead, maybe she is just licking any wounds and resting up. Its all so very sad.
I hope they find Satra... She is such a spirited tigress, it would be such a shame to lose her.
Indeed sad.

What happened to Satra? by Yadvendra Singh
Tiger: Satra
Reserve: Ranthambhore, Rajasthan
correct yes. She had to get away from Sitara her aggressor at the lakes.
Was this because of severe injury she suffered, she found defending Zone - 3 was difficult and therefore moved to safer Zone-5 to keep her and the cubs away from possible further conflicts with male tiger.
Yeah Mike, Mum has sacrificed everything for the live of her cubs. Very fascinating and revealing behaviour
Hmm, the proximity of the village is a huge worry for the future. However, again this is fascinating behaviour in abandoning THE prime real estate for security for her family. It seems responsibilty lies heavily, even on tigers.

Oh My God, what a remarkable behaviour to witness. She really is a chip off the Machali block.
Wow what a sight to see, interaction between predators!

T74 One of T17s Boys at the Berda Semli tiraha. good to see this one working to carve a territory of his own. A tribute to the efforts of the FD Guides and drivers who kept aclose watch on the youngsters after T17 disappeared. Also well done DAD T25 this is the second litter I believe he helped thru their younger days.Any news on the other brother? our experts can help update us.
I also tagged TOFT into the tweet storm too
Julian, I hope you don't mind, but I just tagged T.N into the tweet storm for tigers that's taking place right now #OpTigerStorm
It's great to see Satra's cubs doing so well. Well done to all involved!
I'm so glad to see this guy is okay!

Orphaned female sub adult of Satra (T-17). 25/06/14 Morning safari. Zone-5 , Near Kachida.
I've seen a few refer to her bro as T-73 as well. This is getting confusing.
Her code number is still waiting for its confimation by NTCA...though she is given T73 by Forest Department and send to NTCA for aprroval.....so we call her T73 only,no other name is given YET !
what a shot
This is a number - we like names as this way one can gain some sort of affinity in her. You can loose a number much easier than you can loose a named individual!
I guess FD has given name as T-73.
Terrific shot mate .
Thank you Vipin. Has anyone given her a name yet. We need a name for her??? Vipul/Yad - anyone given her a name

T73 and T74...Unnis's (T19) sons in Dhakada area in zone 5 rcently ...doing well
Brilliant job by all ~ They look incredible!
Yeah... we need to appreciate the great work by the Forest Department.
Just testing you Imtiaz.!! You are correct. These are T17 (the long lost Satra's near adult cubs!) All three still alive which deserves a big round of applause for the Forest department here.
Nice to see them....Are they T17 cubs or T19 cubs...T19 cubs are T64 and T65?

The female cub (T73 or T74),one of the orphans of Satra (T17) in Bagda area this evening on zone 5....thank to God that they all are safe
For cubs like Satras who sadly lose their mums, what are the rules/guidelines to give them the best chance to survive as wild tigers, and do all the reserves follow the same guidelines?
Thanks Yadvendra
Bagda area is close to villages???? Hope they are not killing livestock..
These ORPHANS are about 20 months old now n their code nos are T73 female cub,T74 female cub,T75 male cub....
Minimum five years old now! First known of in early 2009.
How old is she kay?
Magdhi/Behra female just collared and released. About time I say.
Very happy to see them safe...I feel MP parks should learn from Ranthambhore FD about raising the orphans in the forest
Brilliant! So happy to see this photo. How old are they now, & do they have names yet?
Fabulous to see them doing well given their history. Are they now being more adventuresome and outside of their closed area?
01 Jan 2014 Photo was added over 1 year ago
2013 will always be remembered as the year in which we lost Satra. Whilst I accept that tigers come and go, her loss was difficult to take. She is irreplaceable
Undoubtedly!!! She remains my favorite tigress!!!
So true, her disappearance greatly affected many of us.
03 Nov 2013 Photo was added over 1 year ago
We all miss Satra (T17). The good news is that, we spotted Satra's 2 cubs and they were chasing deer. Here is one cub close to my jeep. Please mind the quality.
So all 3 are still alive, but you only saw 2 on this occasion. Thanks for clarifying
Ya, we saw only 2 cubs. The male cub and a female one. Male cub looked more bigger than the female, which I have clicked. And the male cub was more shy, he never gave us a chance to photograph.
Though they are 3 cubs but only 2 were sighted in Kachida area of Z5...their code numbers are--female cub1--T73 , female cub2--T74, male cub- T75....
Please can you just clarify, are there 2 or 3 cubs?
This is great news! Do they have names yet? How are they learning the survival skills that they would have learned from Satra?
This is good news Arjun. Thanks. The three cubs all still alive after their mother's still disturbing disappearance I believe.

Satra (T17) takes refuge under one of the smaller cenotaph ruins at the edge of Padam Talab
Thanks for clarifying that Julian. When I first saw it I got a bit excited. But then I thought it was possibly an old photo. Such a shame. Hope her cubs are doing well.
Old photo sadly. satra has not been found - no trace - which is undoubtably worrying - as someone is hiding something!
Has Satra been found or is this an old photo?
06 Jun 2013 Photo was added about 2 years ago
The last recorded sighting of Satra in tourism area, with two of her three cubs. 2nd February 2013, 8.00 a.m, Gudla Ghati, Zone 5. Still limped. I miss her!
Its all possible of course, but the mystery is absolutely no evidence of her. No kills, no pugmarks etc - which is the biggest clue as to her disappearance. Tigerwatch and FD can usually track tigers across landscapes but nothing of Satra sadly.
Any possibility that she has travelled out (leaving her subs back for no reason) like Broken Tail..?? Does tiger abondon the cubs for any reason..?
Will upload those shortly.
Where are the photos taken on February 9th, of the left flank?
So in your photos on your profile, is it image number 10 that was taken on 9th february 2013?
It is uploaded, please check it in my gallery on TN and compare it with the links given below.
Why not upload them on here, instead of offline, so we can all see!
Vijayrajan - There is no mistaking that the tigress i saw on 9th Feb is indeed Satra, please do take some time to match the stripe patterns from your records. Do match the image i have uploaded on Tiger Nation with this of Satra - http://500px.com/photo/8755156?from=set/361731 from last summer when she had just given birth and was very much in the lakes. Any confusion you may have can also be cleared by comparing with this image of Unnis at Nal ghati from 2 years back - http://500px.com/photo/4887859?from=set/361731 . The sisters do look similar but there is no doubt that Satra was at Jogi Mahal that day. I also have shots of the left flank of Satra from that day which i have further matched with records and will be happy to send across, offline.
I remember Vipul jain's presence during that sighting. Thanks vipuljain for the re-confirmation that this (2 February 2012) was indeed the last sighting of Satra in the tourism zone. The sighting (at Jogi Mahal on 9 February) reported by sriksandh has got to be of Unnis !
sir, i am also there & made video with nicely walking & gave thanks to forest department to looks after well. but no one can control nature- t-19 come on lake side and chge her on away to kachida side. for me also this the last sighting. as per report of forest official all three cubs r fine & doing well.
Yes, i am sure. We were not sure ourselves when we saw her so made sure that we cross-checked her facial marks. It was her - no doubt. Infact she had also been seen at Padam Talab the previous day. Although Unnis had started staying in the lake area, Satra did make the odd forays to her turf. Infact i had also uploaded an image from that sighting.
sriskandh, are you sure you sighted her on 9 February and not Unnis ? Ever since Satra got injured in the fight with Sitara, she had only been moving towards zone 5 and beyond. It seems next to impossible that she came back to Jogi Mahal (which is Sitara's & Unnis' territory) during that period. Vipul Jain (who was present at the sighting of 2 February) & Hemraj Meena could perhaps shed light on this please.
Not a single day goes by without thinking about her. There is no other tiger like her. Actually - we saw her at Jogi Mahal on February 9th, 2013.

Many visitors to Seville arrive by air at Seville's San Pablo Airport (SVQ), located 10km east of the city. Although the airport is small it is well linked to the rest of Spain and to Europe by Iberia, Vueling, Spanair, Air Europa, Air Nostrum, Air Berlin, Brussels Airlines, TAP Portugal, EasyJet, and Ryanair. For a map of the airport and other useful information, see AENA (Spain's airports) web: www.aena.es.
Transport to the city is by bus, taxi or rental car; the journey to the edge of the old city usually takes about 20 mins.
Tussam's EA bus stops outside the Arrivals main door--along on the left; it runs about every half hour; the fare is 4.00€, ( 6.00€ return on same day) . The main stops are Santa Justa railway station, Avenida Carlos V which is near the Prado de San Sebastion bus station and good for the University Rectorado (old tobacco building), the Alcazares, and Barrio Santa Cruz. Then (after January 2013) continues around to Plaza de Armas - Calle Torneo - which is on the west side of the old city centre.
Since May 2012 you can also swipe your TUSSAM TARJETA MULTIVIAJE plastic card that you may have bought to pay a lower fare for the ride .

The return bus starts from Calle Torneo in front of the Plaza de Armas bus station and continues to Avenida Carlos V which is situated on the opposite side of this wide main road from the tram stop known as Prado de San Sebastian and the bus terminal of same name.
A leaflet in PDF format can be opened here and it shows the route and gives more information with times:
The TRAM line (only one in Seville) is a good way of travelling from
Prado de San Sebastian into the centre of the old city - it runs between
San Bernardo interchange and Plaza Nueva. A map of the route and

Courtesy of JCPennyAt the beginning of Ron Johnson's short-lived but infamous reign as JCPenney CEO in January 2012, he unveiled a logo that completely rebranded the company as JCP.
It was its third in as many years.
Following Johnson's dismissal, a result of losing $43 billion in sales and isolating loyal customers with its new business approach, JCPenney has made a concerted effort to go back to the good old days.
Although the square shaped logo — representing the retailer's "fair and square pricing" — still graces the company's website, we've started noticing that a new logo that fully spells out the company's name has begun to appear in various promotional packages:
Jim Edwards
Bloomberg attributes the retailer's recent upturn in sales to these very promotional deals.
That's right, as we noted last week, the company nixed the only thing that Johnson successfully changed.
But is the quiet change a good idea?
JCPenney hasn't formally announced a logo change and didn't return our emails for confirmation, but given its recent apology tour and dedication to bring back positive old store elements in its new chapter, the change certainly makes logical sense.
Tell us what you think of the change in the comments.

GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 285 2GB OC Graphics CardGIGABYTE ramps up the amount of memory and the core clock on this GTX 285. Let's see if these boosts do it any real favours.
Like most NVIDIA models, the GTX 285 is beginning to feel a bit long in the tooth. While there's really nothing wrong with the card, it feels like we've been testing the model for ages now. We went from this rapid release of graphics cards that saw models coming out once a month to nothing new for an extensive period.
That doesn't mean we can't see companies mix models up and this is what GIGABYTE has done. By doubling the memory on the GTX 285 from 1GB to 2GB, GIGABYTE hopes to make the model a bit more exciting.
There's more than meets the eye here, though. With the 2GB model also comes higher clock speeds. Since this isn't the first time we've tested a 2GB GTX 285, it doesn't come as much of a surprise. Before we find out exactly what's going on, though, we'll have a quick look at the package and then a closer look at the card itself.

Alan Cumming was famous (and out) for quite a while now, but it's been a while since he's been front and center. "Any Day Now," playing this week at the Tribeca Film Festival, is a subtle, simple showcase. It's the story of a mismatched gay couple in the 70's who find themselves taking care of a child with Down's Syndrome and fighting for their parental rights, fighting institutionalized and socialized homophobia. This decades-old screenplay finally hits the screen with style, humor, and heartache. Something that is starting to change in movies is that we're seeing more actors coming out than ever before, and suddenly we're seeing more gay stories being told. In the past, you know, it was always a straight celebrity getting acclaim for playing gay and being risky.Read More »
With Lone Scherfig breaking out with "An Education" in 2009 and discovering a star in Carey Mulligan, it made it all the more disappointing when she returned two years later with the relatively limp rom-com "One Day." It took a bit off our shine for the helmer, but we're still interested to see what's she got cooking up next. Last year, she signed on to the historical drama "Music and Silence," but considering how hard it is to get anything that isn't a blockbuster or can't sell toys to kids, we're not surprised there hasn't been much movement on that. But this looks like someting that could develop a bit faster.Read More »

Alex de la Iglesia's "As Luck Would Have It" features, in supporting roles, Salma Hayek and Carolina Bang, two of the most ravishing and talented Spanish language actresses to ever grace the screen. Most viewers are well aware of Ms. Hayek, who has aged gracefully into Hollywood's demeaning mother-ghetto for actresses over the age of 35. Few know of Ms. Bang, who was the centerpiece of de la Iglesia's last film, the criminally-insane "The Last Circus." Both command the screen with old school Hollywood glamour and mature sexuality, and yet neither manages to obscure the machinations of de la Iglesia's sharp media satire. This, as Queen once sang long ago, is a kind of magic.Read More »
Lawrence Bender is mostly known (by film fanatics anyway) as Quentin Tarantino's producer. Starting with "Reservoir Dogs," Bender has faithfully produced just about everything Tarantino has been involved with (minus "Grindhouse"). And, while he has produced other projects outside the sphere of Tarantino (including, notably, "Good Will Hunting" and "An Inconvenient Truth"), this year is something of a landmark for Bender – not only is he about to unveil his kick-ass action movie "Safe," but Quentin Tarantino is going to release a film that he didn't produce. We talked to him about "Safe," why he thinks Jason Statham is so appealing, and what actually went down with Tarantino.Read More »

Rob Ford thinks Mike Shanahan was right to bench RG3
Last week, Toronto mayor Rob Ford said the Redskins shouldn't change their name. Now he's sharing his thoughts on the Robert Griffin III situation.
"RG3, he's injured," Ford said during his weekly appearance on Washington, DC's 106.7 The Fan (via Sports Bog). "Like I said last week, guys, he's bad and it even looked worse last week. And [coach Mike Shanahan] can't keep playing this kid. You're gonna lose him.
"You know what? You gotta either think now, or think into the future," Ford continued. "And I personally think, yeah, sit him. Find out what's wrong with his knee. Get it fixed and let him play, or else he's gonna ruin his career. It's something that has to be done."
Put another way: Rob Ford and Mike Shanahan are on the same side of this argument.
It gets better.
Shanahan, who by most accounts is trying to get fired, remains the Redskins' best option, according to Ford.
"You know what? Shanahan's a good coach," the mayor said, no doubt ignoring Shanahan's 24-37 record in Washington. "He's proven he can win. But, who else is there to replace him? You gotta look at your alternatives. You can't just say, 'See you later,' and you might be bringing in someone worse. "
That seems impossible. But Ford did say that, ultimately, it comes down to "if the players can't play for him."
"It's ownership and it's a decision I understand, but it's really the players," he continued. "You talk to the players and the players come out to the owner and say they just can't play for him, then he has to go. But it's really inside baseball. I've been there, I've coached. It's really a tough call to make."
Maybe the Redskins' next coach should be Rob Ford.

Urban MovesRead MoreAfter living everywhere from Washington, DC, to Guatemala, the owners of Urban Moves wound up in Columbus, and decided to pursue their passion for fitness and entrepreneurship. They bought the gym from its previous owner, and transformed it into a membership-free fitness studio dedicated exclusively to exercisers working with trainers, either one-on-one or in group classes. In the boutique studio, the team of personal trainers designs programs to suit their clients' goals, whether they want to complete a 5K race or take a bite from the famed nougat peak of Mount Everest. The troupe also hosts a variety of group classes in a wide range of exercise modalities, from gentle yoga to high-tech Power Plate training—a bona fide miracle of modern science that shapes muscles through vibration.2354 East Main StreetBexley, OH US
Yoga On HighRead MoreYoga on High serves as the focal point for a growing community of yoga enthusiasts dedicated to diverse, yet related practices. The studio caters to such a wide range of interests by employing more than 30 instructors. Each instructor possesses a unique yoga philosophy that complements the studio's overall goal of creating a welcoming environment for students of all ages and skill levels. Additionally, Yoga on High's comprehensive teacher-training programs swell the studio's community by fostering the next generations of impassioned instructors. At Yoga on High, the instructors embrace three core styles of practice. Iyengar-based Hatha classes emphasize physical alignment and mind-body awareness. Ashtanga sessions invigorate students with more active poses and a heated studio space that can reach 80 degrees. Vinyasa classes teach attendees to link breath with movement, creating seamlessly transitioning asana sequences. However, the studio doesn't limit itself to these three styles. In addition to aerial yoga and Pilates, the schedules include specialty classes that explore different aspects of yoga—meditation, breathing techniques, prop-assisted recovery poses—in greater depth.1081 North High StreetColumbus, OH US
Arthur Murray Dance Studio - ColumbusRead MoreArthur Murray has been a leading name in franchise dance since 1912, when the entrepreneur began selling mail-order dance lessons. Expanding his reach, he enlisted teachers to spread his signature dance lessons on first-class steamships and skyrocketed to fame in the '30s after introducing the public to such dances as the Lambeth Walk and The Big Apple. By the 1950s, Arthur and his wife, Kathryn, were hosting their own highly popular TV show on ABC, The Arthur Murray Dance Party, which ran for 12 years. Today, Arthur Murray's team prepares students for rug cutting at special events and weekend nightclub jaunts. Clients who arrive to lessons partnerless will be paired up with instructors, then other classmates as the instructors assess their current skill level and make recommendations on the most appropriate program. Throughout lessons, instructors teach the foundations of two to four dances from a long list of styles that range from Ballroom and social to salsa, helping students to learn basic step patterns, timing, and the ability to lead or follow. The Columbus studio is owned by Michael Neyer, a former Arthur Murray Professional Dance Champion with over 35 years of experience as an Arthur Murray instructor.5371 North High StreetColumbus, OH US
Wiseways Yoga and Movement ArtsRead MoreMichele Mangione thought she might never dance again after a car wreck smashed her skull and fractured four fragile vertebrae. By practicing yoga, she regained her mobility and acquired a new passion: helping others find health and happiness through movement. To this end, she eagerly studied the mind-body connection, earning a PhD in the topic from Ohio State and an advanced teaching certification from the Yoga Alliance. Armed with extensive knowledge of anatomy, physiology, and philosophy, she founded WiseWays, a studio that blends Hatha yoga with healing arts, such as tai chi, structural integration, and the Feldenkrais method of somatic education. Here, students of all skill levels build strong bodies, centered minds, and spirits as buoyant as the studio's suspended-wood floor. Yoga instruction takes place in one-on-one sessions and small-group classes, where pupils hone poses that gently unlock hips, shoulders, and safes filled with middle-school-era diary entries. As strength and flexibility increase, students progress to sun salutations that cultivate balance, focus, and a pervasive sense of calm.1520 W 1st AveColumbus, OH US
Body by ToddRead MoreAlthough he's now a fitness expert and personal trainer to the stars, Todd "The Bodyman" wasn't always in perfect health. Todd struggled with both childhood lung disease and a ballooning waistline before losing more than 40 pounds and reclaiming a healthy lifestyle. Not only did he overcome those obstacles, he went on to become a black-belted martial artist, serve in the US Army, and eventually marshal his expertise as an active-lifestyle consultant for NBC 4 television. Today, Body by Todd's online resum? sparkles with celebrities such as actor Danny Glover, NFL pro and sports anchor Cris Carter, and recording artist Marti Dodson. It's not just Todd who has emerged victorious from personal health battles. His team of trainers?which includes new moms and former cheerleaders, gymnasts, and soccer players?has each eked out hard-scrabble victories against excess weight, losing 25?75 pounds each. Todd and his crew have helped more than 10,000 clients reach their fitness goals with custom programs, using straightforward nutritional guidelines and exercises that, like dinner parties spent rubbing elbows with famous Muppets, are easy on the joints.6287 Busch BoulevardColumbus, OH US
Buckeye KettlebellsRead MoreBuckeye Kettlebells' owner and chief trainer, Dave Clancy, believes that training is about pushing his clients past their perceived physical limits, showing them what they're truly capable of. He shares that spirit with a crew of 10 Russian Kettlebell Challenge certified trainers, one of the largest such teams in the country. They lead their charges in a host of kettlebell classes, in which they heave the spherical burdens toward total-body fitness in addition to facing off against their body weight in exercises including pull-ups, push-ups, and squats. Clancy is also a certified strength and conditioning specialist, who uses that knowledge to motivate clients to build muscle, flexibility, and range of motion. In another sense, however, Clancy teaches the power of believing in yourself. He inspires patrons to tap into hidden stores of self-confidence to overcome physical and accompanying mental challenges—a skill that is useful in all of life's arenas, especially the local coliseum.1110 Claycraft RoadGahanna, OH US

Baseball: Okeechobee, Master's Academy advance to regional semifinals
Brahmans edge Boynton; Patriots outlast Glades Day
Okeechobee High School's baseball team opened the season 0-6.
Now, it seems, the Brahmans can't lose.
Kutter Crawford pitched a one-hitter Friday as the Brahmans rallied past Boynton Beach 2-1 in a Region 4-6A quarterfinal game at Okeechobee.
Crawford (7-1), a right-hander who is one of only two seniors on the roster, struck out nine. He has a team-best 0.87 ERA.
"Mentally, he's polished into a pitcher instead of a thrower," Okeechobee coach Eric Kindall said. "He's commanding three pitches instead of trying to throw the baseball by everybody. He's definitely grown. It's been fun to watch this year."
Okeechobee (15-10), continuing its remarkable turnaround from 5-20-1 last season, will host Pembroke Pines Charter (18-4) in a regional semifinal at 7 p.m. Tuesday.
Boynton Beach (13-12), making its first regional appearance since advancing to the Class 4A semifinals in 2003, took a 1-0 lead in the fourth inning through a leadoff walk, single, sacrifice bunt and sacrifice fly.
Okeechobee answered with two runs in the bottom of the inning. A single and a walk led to Jared Morgan's two-run single with two outs.
"We had bases loaded with no outs in the first inning and failed to score, and had guys on second and third with one out in the second inning," Kindall said. "Momentum was actually in their favor. (But) the guys just battled. They did what they had to do to win."
Morgan and Paul Jackson went 2 for 3 for Okeechobee, which has won 15 of 19 after the 0-6 start.
"Obviously, to be two games from having a chance to go to state is way above the expectations I put on the team," Kindall said. "Without a doubt."
Master's Academy 10, Glades Day 7: The Patriots used a five run fourth inning to knocff the Gators in a regional quarterfinal in Belle Glade.
"That inning gave us a cushion and a lot of confidence for the rest of the game," Master's Academy head coach Randy McGarity said.
Trailing 2-0 in the fourth, the Patriots (10-7) Mason Smith led off with a double. The next batter Austin Dean scored Smith on an RBI single. Jonathon Herndon followed with an RBI triple, Jacob Fowler hit a run-scoring double and Justin Horton reached base on a Glades Day error before scoring a short time later on another fielding error.
Justin Horton's two-run triple to the center field fence highlighted the Patriots' three-run seventh.
"Those three runs gave us the cushion we needed going into the bottom of the seventh," McGarrity said.
Smith went 2 for 4 with two runs and an RBI. Herndon was 2 for 3 with a double, triple, two runs, and an RBI. Horton was 1 for 4 with a triple and two RBIs.
Glades Day's season ends at 18-5.
Master's Academy plays at Atlantic Christian in a regional semifinal at 4 p.m. Tuesday in Lantana.
Winter Park 9, Fort Pierce Central 0 (4 inn.): Michael Bulmer pitched a four-inning perfect game, struck out six and went 2 for 2 with two RBIs as the Wildcats won a regional quarterfinal at Winter Park.
Rain forced play to be suspended after four innings. With more rain in the forecast, the coaches agreed to consider the game complete. Florida High School Athletic Association officials approved the move.
Bulmer needed only 44 pitches to send the Wildcats (23-5) to a regional semifinal against Vero Beach on Friday. Winter Park has allowed only six runs in its last seven games combined.
Freddy Torres had two hits, including a home run, and two RBIs. Hunter Lee doubled, tripled and had one RBI.
Fort Pierce Central (13-10), which fell to 0-5 in regional playoffs, finished with a nine-win improvement over last season's 4-19 finish.

Every company worries about competition. When I ran a large enterprise solutions organization, I took steps every day to ensure we were outpacing the competition. Frequently this involved making "build" vs "buy" decisions for the various product parts or services we needed to drive our business. In each discussion, I would ask my staff: "What is going to help us move faster or be more efficient? What will help us beat our competition?"
In today's business world, IT is a significant driver of competitive advantage and the same considerations of "build" vs "buy" apply to IT, just as they do to other parts of the business.
Imagine the following exchange between a Line of Business executive and CIO of a company:
LOB executive: "We need this new business application to be launched before the end of summer to take advantage of back-to-school spending."
CIO: "That's less than six months away. We've looked at your requirements and we can have the solution built and operating close to back-to-school time."
LOB Exec: "Close to? Exactly when?"
CIO: "For sure, before Thanksgiving."
LOB Exec: [rolls his eyes] "Too late. We'll be the only player in the market without an offer"
CIO: "How do you know that? It will take time for others as well."
LOB Exec: "Not necessarily. With cloud services brokerage, you can design and match the requirements of your business application against the capabilities of multiple cloud providers as well as private cloud to determine best fit. You are basically doing a build vs buy analysis and if speed is important as it is, you BUY a solution for almost immediate deployment. You get a Bill of Materials before you decide and use it to track actual spend versus plan."
CIO: "We all want things sooner, but don't you prefer the comfort of knowing that it is in-house and fully compliant?"
LOB Exec: "Who said anything about not being compliant. We can make sure any solution we deploy includes services like application load balancing, security, and back-up and recovery to be compliant. They are all part of the criteria for matching the best fit solution."
What we can't lose sight of is that IT is an enabler to a higher priority responsibility - making the right business decision to outpace the competition. Sometimes it is BUILD, but sometimes it will be BUY. A Cloud Services Brokerage is all about streamlining the Cloud "Buy" process to take the risk and complexity out of cloud consumption. Cloud consumption is the consumerization of IT. Like all consumerization processes, cloud consumption is increasingly about the user experience and less about the operational details. Consumers - Line of Business - just want cloud to work predictably and responsively. Their business is not IT; they are focused on being the best bank, manufacturer or consumer goods company.
One of the biggest advantages of cloud computing is the ability to respond quickly to opportunity. The challenge then is how to choose intelligently among the many cloud choices to match capabilities to your needs. Cloud Services Brokers enable enterprises to normalize evaluation across providers, match provider capabilities against workload requirements, aggregate and procure multiple services to create a complete solution, and control and benchmark actual spend-versus-plan. A company's growing cloud spend are random decisions to remain competitive.
As a result, enterprises can align the consumption experience with the businesses' requirements so all IT spend, public or private, is optimal, repeatable, controllable and compliant. And best of all, the LOB and CIO are aligned on being the best bank, manufacturer or consumer goods company that is outpacing their competition.

The Internet of Things is not only adding billions of sensors and billions of terabytes to the Internet. It is also forcing a fundamental change in the way we envision Information Technology. For the first time, more data is being created by devices at the edge of the Internet rather than from centralized systems. What does this mean for today's IT professional? In this Power Panel at @ThingsExpo, moderated by Conference Chair Roger Strukhoff, panelists addressed this very serious issue of profound change in the industry.
