Like said, if your going to use it as a regular rider, go with the '75 and later. I was a Suzuki tech when they were new on the showroom floor, and have ridden dozens of them over the years. Very sturdy bike, and about as dependable as it gets for a 2 stroke large roadbike.
They are solid and neutral in handling, unlike a twitchy RD or a wobbly and wheelie prone Kaw tripple. Not a exciting ride by any means, but a great platform for a all purpose UJM kinda tourer. Brakes are very good for what they need to do. The seat is kinda wooden and would be best to have a custom seat made up to improve the ride comfort.
A big plus is the water cooled engine is very quiet, and stock puts out a very smooth power delivery, its not like a typical 2 stroke powerband, its not very peaky, and pulls somewhat like a 4 stroke when opened up in the midrange. Very usefull power curve . They dont have alot of handlebar buzz, and your footpegs and mirrors dont vibrate either.
If you really HAVE to go with pipes, dont do the 3 into 1 Ocelot pipe, they dont work well. Find a set of J & R's if you can.
Its a heavy, solid, neutral handling bike, not like the Kaw's or little RD's of its day. Think of it as a older Honda CB 750 with a nice smooth 2 stroke tripple tucked in it.

CHARLOTTE, NC - SEPTEMBER 19: Jimmy Clausen of the Carolina Panthers warms up before their game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Bank of America Stadium on September 19, 2010 in Charlotte, North Carolina. (Photo by Streeter Lecka/Getty Images)
Here at Helmet2Helmet, I've made it an unwritten rule to focus solely on the NFL and rarely delve into the collegiate ranks. Of course, when the situation calls for it, I've made exceptions to that rule (and even its own category). Thanks to Jimmy Clausen, this is one of those times. On Monday, the Panthers backup quarterback and Notre Dame alumnus tweeted a controversial picture of a t-shirt which references next month's BCS National Championship game between the Fighting Irish and Crimson tide. Reading "Catholics vs. Cousins," the shirt features two caricatures: a stiff-arming leprechaun (Notre Dame) and a yokel swigging moonshine (Alabama). Predictably, this landed Clausen in hot water with his followers, who've presumably complained about the highly stereotypical images. Shortly after firing off the Twitpic, Clausen deleted it from his Twitter account and began to backtrack. The shirt was sent to me! I was saying THANK YOU #calmdownpeople — Jimmy Clausen (@JimmyCla...

Expert programmer with a math background
Colombia - Last active: 1 day ago - Tests: 8 - Portfolio: 6
I'm a programmer (though really a mathematician) with over 10 years of experience developing web & desktop apps. I've been using Python frameworks (like TurboGears2, Flask or Django) for web development for a long time, but I'm also very capable of working on a more traditional stack using WordPress, Drupal or CodeIgniter. I can do frontend development also using HTML/CSS and I'm particularly fond of jQuery for AJAX behavior and in-browser animation. For non-web development I use a lot of Python for scripting and rapid programming and Cairo/GTK+ to build graphical interfaces that are portable between platforms. I'm particularly interested in scientific and math-related software but I can do other kinds of programming. In short: I want to build things I can be proud of.

If you haven't received one yet you will soon -- a 2010 Census form.
The U.S. Census Bureau is mailing more than 100 million of these questionnaires to households across the country this week. It is an important factor in determining how federal funding is spent as well as how many seats your state will have in the House of Representatives.
But with these legitimate letters will also be fake ones sent by thieves in hopes of stealing your identity. "Good Morning America" financial contributor Mellody Hobson explained how to differentiate the real from the fraud.
2010 Census Questionnaire
The form does not ask for personally sensitive information such as your social security number or financial information such as bank account numbers.
Should you receive a form that does not have the same exact 10 questions, report it immediately to the U.S. Postal Inspection Service, Hobson said.
Email Scams
Email scams are another potential fraud to watch out for.
The Census Bureau will never send you an email inviting you to complete a census form online, Hobson said. This type of email scam is referred to as phishing, and is unfortunately very common.
Usually in this type of scam the email will ask you to go to a Web site to enter census data in the hopes of getting sensitive information, Hobson said.
But the Census Bureau does not conduct the census over the Internet for this exact reason and no communication from the Census Bureau will ask for your personal financial information, Hobson said.
If you think you received a phony email, Hobson warned to not reply, click on any of the links or open any attachments because it could cause a virus to infect your computer and help the scammers steal information.
There is a question on the census form that asks for a phone number, but a representative from the Census Bureau will only call if he or she cannot determine one of the answers on the questionnaire.
Should you receive a call asking for more information than was originally on the questionnaire, that should be a warning sign, Hobson said. Additionally, scammers could also have a device that makes "U.S. Census" appear on your caller ID.
To determine whether a call is legitimate, contact the National Processing Center. The phone number can be found on the Census Bureau's Web site.
In-Person Visits From the Census Bureau
Around May 1 nearly 800,000 part-time, temporary workers will begin knocking on doors to follow up with households that have not mailed back their census forms. (See below for more information on part-time, temporary jobs at the Census Bureau.)
Should you get a visit, do not let your guard down. It is possible that a con-artist could pose as a census taker, so always ask for a valid ID Census badge and second form of ID to ensure the badge is not stolen, Hobson suggested. The badge should have an expiration date and the Department of Commerce watermark.
Census workers usually carry a bag with the U.S. Census Bureau logo on it and will never ask for a cash payment or donation or for any information that was not on the questionnaire.

Mandrake 9.2 problems with FX5700
Hello every1 this is my first post here. I am running Mandrake 9.2 (powerpack), with a AMD 64 bit and I have a Geforce Fx 5700. I am trying to get 3D acceleration working with no luck... I have downloaded and tried to install the 64 bit version drivers but the installation warns me that I am NOT running a 64 bit system and then it quits. I find this normal beacause nowhere in installation of MDK 9.2 you actually point out that you are running a 64 bit proccessor and I think that is because 64 bit market proccessors weren't still out when 9.2 was released. So I donwloaded the 32 bit version drivers and installed them perfectly (no kernel compilation no nothing plain default_install). Then when I try to startx I get a blank screen. I have tried setting Option "NvAGP" from "1" to "0" and vice versa. Still the same thing. When I do "lsmod" I don't see the nvidia driver and do "modprobe nvidia" and get "loading /lib/modules/2.4.22-10mdk/kernel/drivers/video/nvidia.o will taint the kernel" but it loads the module with warns. Again when I try "startx" I get the same error. I have done everything mentioned in the ReadMe concerning the XF86Config-4....
One more thing. When I install the drivers and return to "vesa" mode I get some "kdeinit" crashes on load of KDE (3.1.3) and also some other messages/crashes when I close programs normally.
P.S. I have also TRIED installing older drivers that give me the same result.
P.S.2. Wherever I mention getting a blanc screen I have to hard-reboot (press teh reboot button) because Ctrl+Alt+Delete will give the reboot command (i can hear the beep) but it won't actually reboot.
PS.3. I am running on kernel 2.4.22-10mdk
P.S.4. The card works perfectly under windows.
Re: Mandrake 9.2 problems with FX5700
I think Mandrake doesn't like GFX5700s. I have one too and I can't get it to work either. Nothing as bad as crashing, just as if the drivers hadn't installed at all. I really have no idea how to fix it. Maybe upgrade to Mandrake 10. That's what I have.
Re: Mandrake 9.2 problems with FX5700
Well me upgrading to MDK 10 right now is not quite of an option.... Anyone else have a solution???
Re: Mandrake 9.2 problems with FX5700
C'mon guys I really a reply.... C'mon pls I need help...
Re: Mandrake 9.2 problems with FX5700
Sorry - does that imply upgrading to Mdk-10 will solve the problem?
Could you please tell which version of the Nvidia driver are you using and what's your current kernel ( if you've managed to get around the problem ).
BTW, Could you also post your xfconfig/xorg.conf file.
Thanks in advance,

NASA's Space Shuttle Atlantis landed at Kennedy Space Center's (KSC) 15,000ft (4,500m) long runway at 06:21h local time (10:21 GMT) today after its successful extended 12-day International Space Station (ISS) mission STS-115 to attach the 17,500kg (38,500lb) port three and port four (P3/P4) truss to the orbital outpost.
Above: Atlantis, OV-104, lands at KSC's runway after its 12-day flight
On the mission's first day of extra-vehicular activity (EVA), NASA astronauts Joe Tanner and Heide Stefanyshyn-Piper connected power cables and removed launch restraints from the array's blanket box and its Beta Gimbal Assembly. The unfolding of the Lockheed Martin-built solar panels was to take place on 13 September but a software problem with the Solar Alpha Rotary Joint (SARJ), which rotates the arrays to follow the Sun, delayed that to the following day. During that day's EVA, the mission's second, MacLean and NASA astronaut Dan Burbank worked on activating the SARJ, losing a bolt in the process. The 73.2m-wide array was fully unfolded at 14:44GMT on 14 September. The array will not provide power to the ISS until further work is carried out during Shuttle Discovery's STS-116 mission in December.STS-115 was the 116th Shuttle flight and the 19th mission to visit the ISS. Atlantis has now flown 27 times and made six trips to the station. The landing was the 21st night landing for a Shuttle and the 15th night landing at KSC.

Filmmaker Karan Johar feels "talentless" after watching Anurag Basu's "Barfi!" and says it would be an "honour" to work with actor Ranbir Kapoor who has excelled as a deaf and mute boy in the movie.
"I just saw 'Barfi!'...I have never felt more limited, inferior and talentless. Anurag Basu is the god of all filmmakers... his genius is 'Barfi!'," Johar tweeted.
"Ranbir Kapoor has given the most outstanding performance... he deserves a running ovation! It will be an honour to work with him," he further tweeted.
Johar also heaped praises on Priyanka Chopra for her portrayal of an autistic girl.
"Priyanka Chopra is just brilliant as Jhilmil. Superbly nuanced and pitch perfect. Her portrayal lingers long after the film.. Well done Ileana D'Cruz !!! Superb debut... and Kudos to all at UTV for this masterpiece that defines the barometer of modern cinema," he added.

Ranbir was my fvt..and movie was good bt i feel dat movie has dragged too much and bfr intervals nythn happened..a little confusing...n think is that thr is no nyd of bringing Pc character..one character was enf..Rabir as a deaf person and again pc as autistic girl. bt i must say awsome acting by all casts
I failed to understand if this movie was a love story, a mystery or a comedy..basically a khichi of all...the film was good only in parts..some moments were nice but overall...it lacked the grip to glue me as an audience for 2.5 hrs..these are just my thoughts...no offense...I am a big big Ranbir Kapoor fan..the only USB of the film. The actors are the only USB of the film.
Edited on:17 September 2012 at 12:28pm
what a film Barfi! ...without any doubt wat so ever this film should get best film of the year award..and the actors Ranbir and Priyanka should get best lead roles...what amazing performance they both gave n coz the new comer aswell...anyone can act but acting disable with such ability that for a sec you would really think that they are disable...mindblowing performance ..brilliant film...everyone should watch it xx
Edited on:17 September 2012 at 11:34am
I am really shocked..I didn't like that movie at all..it was so slow paced ...
Edited on:17 September 2012 at 9:39am
I agree with KJo! Anurag Basu is a cinematic genius! ranbir was outsranding
Barfi is a great film. As for Karan, while I don't particulalry like his kind of cinema, i have to give him credit for always being very generous in praising everything that is new or exciting, be it Barfi, Delhi Belly and so on.
I agree with KJo! Anurag Basu is a cinematic genius! The movie was just beautiful! Ranbir was outstanding in every scene! Priyanka was superb as an autistic girl! Ileana was beautiful and mesmerizing!
the film is beautiful! every single character is so innocent, raw and sensitive! waiting to see ranbir, ileana, priyanka and the whole team to grab loads and loads of awards!
Barfi is awesome movie,i love this movie.
Just see a few songs. Looks like a good movie. Are the references to Ranbir's character and Mr Bean intentional? Do love it though.
Actors Ranbir Kapoor and Ranveer Singh as well as filmmaker Karan ...
Karan Johar was left fuming after being mocked on the social media ... 1

Following today's blowout numbers, we just received word that Apple CEO Tim Cook sent a short email to Apple employees congratulating them both on a record setting holiday quarter and starting 2012 with the launch of a groundbreaking initiative for education with iBooks 2 and iPad textbooks.
Perhaps most enticing, Cook told everyone to report to Town Hall tomorrow either in person or through their AppleWeb online portal at 10 a.m. PT to discuss "some exciting new things going on at Apple." Former Apple CEO Steve Jobs typically held such meetings following major product launches like the iPad and iPhone.
Cook's last all hands email was sent just one week ago and discussed Apple's supplier responsibility report.
Today's email from Cook is pasted below:

January casino revenue figures down at Mississippi casinos
JACKSON, Miss. (AP) — Revenue figures show the new year got off to a slower- than-average start for Mississippi casinos.
January's $87.8 million revenue at the 11 coast casinos was down $10 million from a year ago, according to Mississippi Department of Revenue figures.
The decline was about $3 million at the 19 riverside casinos, to $89.2 million.
Revenue for January totaled $176.9 million, down 10.5 percent below January 2011. The casinos took in $186 million in December.
Casino revenues for all of 2011 totaled $2.23 billion.
The figures do not include the state's Indian tribal casinos, which are not required to report their winnings to the public.
The casino revenue figures do not include hotel, restaurant or bar revenues generated by the resorts.

Here are some of the latest health and medical news developments, compiled by the editors of HealthDay:
Another VA Official Resigns
The director of the Department of Veterans Affairs' medical investigation unit has resigned, the VA announced Wednesday.
Dr. John Pierce stepped down days after his department was harshly criticized by the Office of Special Counsel for not doing enough to investigate allegations of poor care within the VA health system, The New York Times reported.
The Office of Special Counsel investigates whistle-blower complaints in the federal government. In response to that criticism, acting VA secretary Sloan Gibson ordered a review of the VA's office of medical inspector.
Pierce is the fifth senior VA official to leave the department in the past six weeks as the agency has been rocked by allegations of patients facing long wait times for care and attempts to conceal the problem, The Times reported.
JPMorgan Chase CEO Has Throat Cancer
The CEO of JPMorgan Chase has throat cancer, but plans to remain in his position while undergoing treatment.
In a letter sent to bank executives and employees Tuesday, 58-year-old Jamie Dimon said the cancer is curable and his prognosis is excellent because the disease was found at an early stage, USA Today reported.
"The good news is that the prognosis from my doctors is excellent, the cancer was caught quickly, and my condition is curable," Dimon said in the letter. "I feel very good now and will let all of you know if my health situation changes."
Dimon said he will undergo chemotherapy and radiation therapy at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in Manhattan over the next eight weeks, and plans to stay at the helm of the bank during that time, USA Today reported.

The history of advertising in quite a few objects: 40 Marion Harper's plane
campaignlive.co.uk, Thursday, 06 September 2012 08:00AM
Marion Harper, whose fathering of Interpublic set the stage for today's global marcoms industry, was a high-flier in the most literal sense.
An ego-driven new-business wizard with a taste for the high life, Harper ensured that, whenever he travelled, he was met by limousines, stayed in the presidential suites of the best hotels and had special foods prepared for him.
These indulgences, though, paled into insignificance beside his private plane: a combined flying office and luxury apartment that IPG bought for $500,000 (the equivalent of about $2 million today) from KLM in 1965.
Even judged against later industry excesses, the four-prop Douglas DC-7 was a mind-blowing extravagance. Costing $1 million a year to maintain, the aircraft boasted bronze floor-lamps, deep-pile rugs, leather sofas, silk wall coverings and a bedroom.
It was all a far cry from Harper's cash-strapped origins in Oklahoma City, but testament to his whirlwind rise through the ranks at McCann Erickson, where he was appointed president aged just 32.
Time magazine described him as the "most cussed and discussed" figure on Madison Avenue in a 1962 cover story. But his success was beyond dispute as he pulled in such accounts as Coca-Cola and Buick and increased the agency's billings by 600 per cent in one year.
But it was Harper's search for a solution to the problem of account conflict caused by client growth through diversification that led to an industry game-changer.
In 1961, he established IPG as an umbrella for his agencies, with McCann at its heart, in order to handle competing businesses.
Within just six years, however, Harper's career had crashed in flames. Unable to grasp the fact that IPG's increasing debt problems could not be solved by more business volume, he was ousted by fellow directors.
His personal finances in ruins and his ego wounded, Harper returned to Oklahoma City. Rumours of him starting again with a smaller agency were never fulfilled and he died there of a heart attack in 1989, having declared: "I have been captured by what I chased."
- In 1979, 11 years after he left IPG, the American Association of Advertising Agencies named Marion Harper, David Ogilvy and Albert Lasker, hailed as the founder of modern advertising, as the three most-interesting figures in advertising mid-century.
- One of the first acts by the new management put in place at IPG after Harper's departure was to dispose of the group's fleet of planes, including the former boss' DC-7.
- IPG is currently ranked third among the world's advertising conglomerates behind Omnicom and WPP.

Written by celebrated author Will Fowler, Allies at Dieppe: 4 Commando and the US Rangers tells the fascinating history of that fateful landing. The heroic, ultimately unsuccessful, landings of the British and Canadians tends to be the focus of much of the history of those bloody French beaches in August 1942. Fowler's work seeks to redress the balance, and draws out the extraordinary story of 4 Commando and the US Rangers who, in contrast to the failing of the raid as a whole, achieved their objectives and destroyed the guns that threatened the landings. A great success in a day of disasters, the US Rangers' contribution was America's first land action on mainland Europe in World War II, and showed the brilliant leadership and comprehensive operational planning vital to success.

Headed out to High Rocks next month starting at the road-to-nowhere/Lakeshore trail then onto Bear Creek trail, with a night at cs 75, Poplar Flats. Always curious to learn about the area before hiking it. From the Brown book I wasn't able to glean much info about the route other than the logging operations once conducted there.
Any old home sites, cemeteries, or other interesting places in the area/along the route?
High Rocks itself seems an interesting destination. …Continue

The September issue of Backpacker magazine had a chart on human-bear "confrontations" as reported by NPS (2012). Not sure what their definition of confrontation was. But perhaps not surprisingly, GSMNP led all parks with 335 such incidents, Yosemite was 2nd with ~170. It dropped off sharply from there.
The encounter data also showed # of bears killed (assumedly by rangers?). Most parks had none, Glacier and Grand Teton had 4, Black Canyon and Denali had 1. Then there…Continue

Enjoyed my first hike to Mt Cammerer last week. Can't believe I haven't made it up there sooner. Anyway, on the way down Low Gap trail I came upon this thing. Any ideas? It was just off the trail, above the campground about a 1/4 mile or so.

Myself and my 6 year old, along with another father/son, took a 3 day/2 night backpacking trip this past weekend. My son had done a short overnight backpacking trip with me in March and was excited to go again.

The Schneider 28mm f/2.8 PC-Super-Angulon is a high-quality wide-angle lens with "Perspective Control" for 35mm SLR cameras. Its large image-circle diameter and innovative mechanical design allow the optical axis to be displaced 11mm horizontally and vertically and 9.5mm diagonally.
This lens opens up new realms of impressive results for great SLR systems that lacked a shift lens of their own manufacture, and does so with legendary Schneider optics.
This version does not come with a lens mount. Optional mounts are available for all popular 35mm camera systems. By simply fitting different lens mounts on the lens, it can be adapted for different camera systems.
Note: The front design of this lens will only allow use of B+W brand "wide-angle" filters or lens hoods.
- The 12-element design yields exceptional optical quality even with full displacement, achieved by a Floating Element System that ensures high quality over the complete focusing range -- up to 11 inches.
- Detented click-stops on the lens every 45° of rotation.
- In order to avoid disturbing reflections and flare, the PC-Super-Angulon has a multi-layer antireflective coating.
- The lens has a preset iris with an iris closing lever: therefore, picture composition can be done at full aperture. Prior to releasing the shutter, select the preset f/stop with the iris lever.

The announcement coincides with Homecoming's Whisky Month, which sees events taking place across Scotland to celebrate the national drink.
Created in 1896 in Perthshire, The Famous Grouse has been Scotland's no. 1 selling whisky for more than 30 years and sold in around 100 markets worldwide.
The agreement will see parent firm and international premium spirits company Edrington, which is headquartered in Glasgow, join the Glasgow 2014 sponsor family.
David Grevemberg, Glasgow 2014 chief executive, said: "As a company with a strong and long established presence in Scotland, we are pleased to have The Famous Grouse on board as our Official Whisky. We will be working with Edrington from now until Games time on collaborative opportunities to showcase this special product while encouraging those celebrating the Games to do so responsibly."
Ian Curle, Edrington chief executive, added: "We're excited about this perfect partnership. Edrington was born in Glasgow and over 150 years it has grown and developed to become an international business. That same spirit and dedication to excellence is at the heart of Glasgow 2014 and we're very proud to raise a toast of friendship between The Famous Grouse and the friendly games."

Microsoft unveils Silverlight 3
Microsoft has announced the release of the third edition of its rich-media platform, an attempted "Flash killer", Silverlight. It went into beta earlier this year, and now it's rolling out as a full release.
Microsoft says that the new version brings improved quality streaming, which "compares to watching video on television". If you've got decent bandwidth you'll get HD playback, but if you're suffering a slow connection then it should still be able to stream in lower quality smoothly.
There's also a shedload of new DRM for monitoring and protecting content, a "deep zoom" function, more powerful 3D, and the ability to build Silverlight apps that exist outside the browser, on your desktop. The feature set doesn't completely eclipse Flash, but it certainly rivals it.

Doctor Who: The Figure Thread

Re: Doctor Who: The Figure Thread
Hmm. Just saw some pics posted of the 11th/Amy/Tardis set and I'll definitely be giving it a miss.
No electronics on the Tardis, no lights, no sound but it's the same Tardis. The speaker is on the back, the battery compartment on the back, the slot for the power switch on the bottom but... not guts. That's cheap.
The paint application on the Doctor's jacket was described as being applied by "blind kids with crayons" and it's horrid. Worst paint app ever on a DW figure.
The Amy figure is good though so unless you really really want two pieces of rubbish and one decent figure, avoid this one and hope for a single release of the Kissogram Amy figure.

Voters in the Mat-Su Borough will decide whether seniors and disabled veterans get an additional property tax break. The Mat-Su Borough Assembly this week voted to put the question before voters on the October ballot.
The change would add another $48,000 to the existing exemption of $170,000 of assessed home value already in place for those groups, according to Assembly member Ron Arvin.
Several seniors spoke out in favor of the change during the Assembly meeting.
The larger exemption would reduce property tax revenues to the borough by $2.4 million, Assistant Borough Manager George Hays told the group.
Assembly member Jim Sykes made an unsuccessful bid to raise the exemption incrementally over three years, citing the financial uncertainties to come in an already tight budget year. His was the only vote in favor of that proposal.
"The reality is we have lost probably over $1 million in income from airport tax, business inventory tax, and we don't have an accurate forecast of what we're going to get next year," Sykes said. "I'd rather take a conservative, cautious approach."
Arvin lashed out at the word "income" in his fellow Assembly member's comments, saying it was revenue.
"There's a presumption this shifts the tax burden to others, when in fact it is not an appropriate conclusion," he said. "The conclusion should be if this goes to the polls and passes that it will be incumbent upon this body then to reduce the cost of government to coincide with the amount of revenue."
The Assembly also approved an amendment that would adjust the exempted amount in coming years to reflect the average assessed home value in the borough, though borough attorney Nick Spiropoulos still needs to sign off on that language, borough clerk Lonnie McKechnie said Friday.
The exemption would apply to people 65 or older, disabled veterans including those who served in the Alaska Territorial Guard and widows or widowers of qualified groups who are at least 60.

Neil Ramirez
Heard of him? Probably not. Well don't get too down on yourself, 95% of Ranger fans have not heard of this 21-year old right-hander.
First a history lesson on how he came to the Texas Rangers organization. I have written before about how amazing the 2007 off-the-field additions were for the Texas Rangers before. My colleague also covered it a few months ago about how great of a job Jon Daniels did to get the winning team we see today.
In case you have forgotten that was the June First-Year Player Draft in which Texas had five of the top 54 picks. Later that summer at the Trade Deadline Daniels' traded away first baseman Mark Teixiera to Atlanta and closer Eric Gagne to Boston and in return Texas received a handful of near Major League ready prospects. Recognize any of these names: Elvis Andrus, Neftali Feliz, Matt Harrison, Jarrod Saltalamacchia, Beau Jones, David Murphy, Engel Beltre, and Kason Gabbard. Then at the end of the year and during the off-season he traded for the services of Josh Hamilton. Quick, imagine the Texas Rangers without any of these guys.
But I want to concentrate on the draft that season. Quick refresher of those five picks in the top 54 selections: #17 Blake Beavan, #24 Michael Main, #35 Julio Borbon, #44 Neil Ramirez, and #54 Raymond "Tommy" Hunter. Beavan was used in a trade that brought Cliff Lee here last season and Main was used in the trade that brought Bengie Molina. Borbon is the starting centerfielder, and Hunter has been a starter the past two seasons. So one name was missing, a recently turned 18-year old right-hander pitcher out of Kempsville HS in Virginia Beach, Virginia…Neil Ramirez. Side note, in that draft Texas also selected Mitch Moreland in the 17th round, plus selected but unable to sign: 11th round Anthony Ranaudo and 12th round Drew Pomeranz.
When Ramirez was taken he was not expected to blossom nor move up as quickly as the other four top picks. He was a high school hurler that had a projectable body, excellent command, with solid secondary stuff. An analysis that is seen many times each and every draft and these high school pitchers throughout the history of the game have been incredibly hit-or-miss.
Ramirez had a very solid Spring Training and was assigned to High-A ball Myrtle Beach as a member of the Pelicans rotation. It was a promotion for the young man as he had never pitched higher than Low-A ball and in his first start for the Pelicans, Ramirez went 4.2 innings of one-hit, shutout baseball. He walked only one batter and struck out nine of the 14 outs he recorded. Pretty solid outing, but is it enough to garner an entire article on a blog about the Texas Rangers? Nope…but how about this.
Wednesday night Ramirez got an emergency call-up for ailing Express starter Eric Hurley. Yeah, you heard that right, the 21-year old who a week ago had never pitched above High-A ball was starting for the Triple-A Round Rock Express. When mentioned he was starting it was a minor note that an impressive young arm in the Rangers system was making this emergency start against the Omaha Storm Chasers. That is an Omaha team in the Royals system, meaning this kid would be facing two of the arguable top ten baseball prospects in third baseman Mike Moustakas (drafted same year as Ramirez) and first baseman Eric Hosmer.
But instead of being too hyped-up about the two level promotion or awe-struck at the talent he was facing, Ramirez dealt and when I say dealt, I mean he was Las Vegas casino dealing!
In six innings of work, that took only 75 pitches, Ramirez shut the Storm Chasers out. 0 runs, 3 hits (all singles), 0 walks, 5 strikeouts, and 2 double plays to erase two of the three base runners he allowed. He retired 14 of the last 15 batters he faced.
Ramirez's excellent command of his fastball was on full display for the fans lucky enough to witness it, as he stayed in the 91-96 mph range. He also featured a change up that ranged between 84-87 mph and a "Power" curveball around 81 mph (plus-or-minus a notch or two). The story on Ramirez has always been his command of his heater, but with the addition of a "Power" curve that was described as an out-pitch, plus the serviceable change piece, Ramirez could find himself on a fast track in the farm system.
Now does this mean he is a Ranger in 2011? No, not at all. There were some downsides to his outing as he left a handful of fastballs up high and his delivery needs some refining. Will he remain at Triple-A Round Rock? Again, no I don't believe so. Ramirez is likely to return to Myrtle Beach for the time being as he continues to work on his delivery and pitches. One expert predicted that the development of a cutter would match very well in his repertoire. But if he continues to develop well in the next month or two, Ramirez could find himself starting games in Double-A Frisco very soon.
This wasn't meant to stir up some buzz of him joining the Rangers staff any time soon, Rangers Insider Jamey Newberg projects his arrival sometime in 2012. But even if it's 2013, he will only be 23-years old. No, the point of this piece was one to bring to light a performance Wednesday night that caught the attention of scouts and reporters not only at the game, but beat writers at the Major League level as, Newberg, Evan Grant, and Richard Durrett all weighed in on his performance. And two to add more fuel to the fire that the Rangers pitching staff is becoming youth-led.
Right now the Rangers are thriving at 9-3 behind young starters Matt Harrison, Derek Holland, and Alexi Ogando. Rangers closer Neftali Feliz is the reigning AL Rookie of the Year. Top pitching prospects at Triple-A Round Rock, aside from Ramirez, Tanner Scheppers and Michael Kirkman continue to work and both will likely see time in the Majors this season. The Rangers top prospect, left-hander Martin Perez is at Double-A in his continued efforts to work through the farm systems. And now the next crop of youthful pitching prospects are beginning to shine: Ramirez, Robbie Erlin (High-A), and David Perez (Dominican Summer).
Will all these pitching prospects be stars, or just sufficient Major League pitchers? No, of course not. But I just named 10 pitchers who baseball experts and scouts around the country have all stated each and every one of them has the talent to be starters in the Majors. A Major League rotation needs only five, therefore if only half of these ten pitching prospects become solid starters in the Majors, then still the Rangers would have one of the best pitching staffs in baseball. Not only that, but the eldest pitcher at that time would likely be a 28-year old Ogando.
Will Ramirez have some more growing pains? You bet. But I tell you this, though I won't always write about or Let's Talk Rangers won't always tweet about performances, get used to this type of reports. The Rangers farm system is seeded full of young pitching talent, and these seeds are beginning to blossom.

What differentiates humanistic theories of motivation (e.g. Maslow, Rogers) from other theories (e.g. Hull, Instinct)?
Many researchers in the humanistic approach to psychology have noted the persistent motive within individuals to become competent in dealing with the environment. Successful completion of a task, however, often seems to cause the task to lose some of its value, and new, more difficult challenges are undertaken.
Theorists in this area have described this persistent motive to test and expand one's abilities by a number of terms. Carl Rogers has described this motive state, as an attempt to grow and reach fulfillment, that is to become a fully functioning individual. Abraham Maslow has described the process as a movement towards self-actualization, an attempt to become all that one can possibly become. According to these approaches, all of us strive to reach our potential. Most of the humanistic theories take the point of view that human behaviour cannot be fully understood without some reference to this striving toward actualization or full functioning.
Rogers pointed out that life itself is an active, ongoing process and that the most basic characteristic of human behaviour is a striving for wholeness. This concept of striving is important because it implies that the process of achieving wholeness is never complete; we change as we grow. Rogers has called this striving to become fully functioning the actualizing tendency and argued that it is innate in all living organisms.
Rogers argued that our environment influences our striving for fulfillment. We are cognitive organisms and our experiences can either help or hinder our attempts to grow. He saw the actualizing tendency as creating both a need for positive regard and a need for positive self-regard.
Maslow also developed a motivational theory that emphasizes the striving to reach one's full potential as basic to human motivation but also includes additional motives besides self-actualization. Maslow argues that we must seek to understand the ultimate goal of behaviour rather than the superficial or apparent goals, because the apparent goal for any observed behaviour may be quite different from the ultimate goal. This implies that motivation for much of our behaviour might occur at an unconscious level. Maslow saw the unconscious in a much more positive level than other theorists did. Like Rogers, Maslow also regarded the striving for perfection or self-actualization as the ultimate purpose of behaviour.
Where both Rogers and Maslow and other humanistic approaches differ from other theories of motivation is in its belief that the purpose for the motivation is a strive for perfection and not homeostatic or a means of survival. The Ethological approach, for example, is firmly based on Darwin's theory of evolution. Instinctive behaviours exist, they argue, because they have, or had, survival value for the species in question.
Other theories like that of Hull and the Incentive theory differ from Rogers and Maslow in that Hull argues that motivation has a strong correlation to learning and is not innate, as Rogers would suggest. This is the idea that we may perform more strongly for incentives or rewards. Hull's experiments led him to conclude that the characteristics of the goal object influence the organism's motivation. For example, you had to learn from experience that you enjoyed chewing into a big juicy cheeseburger before your brain can stimulate the motivational circuits to purchase one the next time you are driving by McDonalds.

One of the problems surrounding fuzzy knowledge base generation using genetic algorithms is finding an optimal number of fuzzy sets for each premise. A genetic algorithm developed by the authors for the automatic generation of fuzzy knowledge bases uses a multi-objective method combining error minimization and simplification. This paper proposes solutions based on cluster analysis and validation indices for the numbers of clusters used in predefining the numbers of fuzzy sets. Two different validation indices as well as a combination of one of these with the multi-objective method are compared to the original multi-objective method on both synthetic and experimental data. Results obtained with the proposed techniques showed a considerable improvement over the multiobjective method on both data sets

Guerlain certainly knows how to do Eaux de Cologne. Here the star is the citron. To me it is almost a soliflore based on Citron: a beautiful scent that is not quite lemon, not quite lime. Eau de Fleurs de Cédrat is an uplifting, refreshing, stimulating and mouthwatering experience. The Eau de Cologne genre is not meant to be long lasting. The eaux are used as part of the bathing ritual, as a base for one's scent of the day, and/or a refreshing pick-me-up through out the day. To complain that an Eau is not long lasting enough is akin to complaining that water is wet. Eau de Fleurs de Cédrat is another triumph in the Guerlain line of Eaux de Cologne.
