It's Me, Ernie
And an expert on blowing you seem to be…Posted July 23, 2013 11:19 am
He wasn't on his knee until 9.. He was off his knee well before the count of 9.. Everyone knows he got a partisan quick count..
Total BS because the knockdown punch was to the back of Scott's head… so the knockdown count should have been waved off and Scott given a 5-minute rest … Those are the rules on an accidental foul blow.Posted July 22, 2013 7:14 pm
Anyone of the opinion that we, the fans have been jobbed? Royally? Neither of these fat asses are quality opponents for the Klits and the only way to generate interest for either is to create a controversy? It seems that the ending had already been scripted. Most fighters I've seen take a knee until the eight count. VER, very rarely have I seen ANY fighter risk a nine count for the very reason that was on display this time out. Smells like a set-up to me.Posted July 21, 2013 10:33 pm

Don't blame the tainted referee but Malik Scott's promoter, what the hell's going to England to fight Frank Warren's protege? and Malik Scott is not even a puncher, so it's was clear that his only chance was a win by decisionPosted July 21, 2013 2:15 pm
HOW CAN ANY REAL BOXING FAN WATCH THESE FAT HEAVYWEIGHTS THERE ALL WANKERSPosted July 21, 2013 2:06 pm
I really struggle with this guy's articles, even more than before.
'It looked like the referee might have been confused in the amount of fingers he was holding up because Scott was clearly on his feet at the count of 9'…no he wasnt. The ref clearly got to the count of 9 whilst Scott was still down. This is very easily verified from all the footage.
'Good luck trying to make that happen. Chisora isn't even ranked in the top 15, and he's still lost 4 out of his last 7 fights'…As Chisora is now the WBO International champion (nothing to write home about I know), he is guranteed a top 10 world ranking by the WBO.
Wrong again numpty.Posted July 21, 2013 12:46 pm
Just beat it!Posted July 21, 2013 9:37 am
badPosted July 21, 2013 9:10 am
The ref got trigger happy. End of story. Bad stoppage and another dis satisfying fight.Posted July 21, 2013 8:56 am
Another example of hometown refereeing but Scott can only blame himself.His safety first approach has cost him again.Every pro fighter knows that you get up at the 8 count if at all possible.He could have done so but didn't.That is his fault.He has many skills but lacks the needed mental approach to be a top fighter.Posted July 21, 2013 8:49 am
Chisora wins the rematch. Scott knows it. Get it done, fight was warming up nicely and the fans deserve a rematch.
Scott before fight to Chisora " what round am I going down in? " lol.Posted July 21, 2013 8:05 am
jus read and learn
The fact that there is a big debate about whether he got up in time or not shows that it should not have been stopped. Had the ref let the fight continue, NOT ONE person would have complained saying that he should have been counted out. Even if he got up and was wobbling all over the place, u might feel the ref was slightly more justified to stop the fight, but the fact is he got up BEFORE the 10 count with all his senses in tact and the ref just waived of a fight which was warming up and the fans deserved to see. This is boxing and the ref should have some friggin common sense to know when to let a fight continue. Had this been the other way round and this happen to chisora or another english fighter, everyone would be up in arms including those bias commentators who could clearly see he got up before 10 but chose to ignore it.Posted July 21, 2013 7:34 am
bollox the man got up the fight should have continued…Posted July 21, 2013 6:15 am
I wish Americans weren`t so soft and full of quit, then they might make for decent opponents, but what can you do?
Honestly I would have waved him on since I`d rather see him stopped in devastating style than arguing about 9.5-10 seconds.
Once the ref had hit 9 he looked like he`d decided to say 10 no matter what.
If you think staying down for that extra one second is worth it, then maybe in the future you`d think about this and say not.
Irrespective SCott has been walked down and put over by a fairly straightforward and not that powerful a fighter, and it only took him 6 rounds to get to that point.
This is why Scott never stepped up, and he goes onto the pile of people like David Rodriguez, Chauncy Welliver, Mansour, Joe Mesi and Deontay Wilder who b.u.m.slayed the USA and never stepped up.Posted July 21, 2013 2:56 am
Chisora shouldn't moan about the Helenius fight after this…Posted July 21, 2013 2:46 am
collins is a poofta, always a nut hugging punk.Posted July 21, 2013 2:39 am
Mongrel…. You get more time if you take a 9-count… A hostile referee is already wiping your gloves off as he's giving you a mandatory… If you get up at 9 he has to check to see if you're fine.. wipe your gloves and order "box." … Often as he completes the mandatory he doesn't check you, has already wiped your gloves, and just says, "6, 7, 8, BOX"Posted July 21, 2013 1:58 am
This was a Fight between two NON Championship Contenders who aren't very good. Haye remains as the most impressive UK HW.Posted July 21, 2013 12:52 am
That's a GOOD idea. Put a cam on the ref and then a Head referee can review the footage and school those who fall short…Just like the NBA and NFL.Posted July 21, 2013 12:50 am
You stay down till 8, since you are going to get a mandatory 8 count anyway, and that gives you time to be up and looking the ref in the eye.
The ref was shouting the numbers in his face, showing him on his hands and counting at a consistent rate which hit 10 before Scott was fully up.
He was actually down for 11 seconds if you check with a timer on youtube.
I don`t have much sympathy. Though I`d like to see a camerview of his face when he was kneeling, so we knew exactly what the refs view looked likePosted July 21, 2013 12:26 am
KO… You're talking stupid.. Malik DID have a problem with it and wants a rematch.. As Scott clearly stated, "Everybody could see I was up at the count of 9″ which was correct… 9 comes before 10 Therefore he beat the count.. You don't go "OUT" when a guy is on his feet.. He's up so you check if he's fit to continue … Rotten ref.Posted July 20, 2013 11:56 pm

Gonzo the Dragonborn
I seemed to recall thinking Scott seemed a little intimidated by Chisora during that conference call they did. It was pretty subtle and lesser observant and intelligent people than myself wouldn't have picked it up. I'm very astute when it comes to this things.. very little gets past me. And I think Chisora broke him a little mentally at that point and it reappeared during the fight when adversity came a knockin' on his door. I'm not saying Scott flat out quit.. it's just I think he might have subconsciously been looking for a way out and it manifested itself in his body language and demeanour at that moment in time.Posted July 20, 2013 8:22 pm
Gonzo the Dragonborn
Ronald.. The ref could've easily deducted points of Scott for all that excessive American style holding aka cheating he was doing, but he didn't. In fact, I don't recall seeing him issue him with any warnings about it ether.Posted July 20, 2013 8:12 pm
Malik Scott quit, he knew what was going on, he could of got straight back up, he was tired, it's a different thing fighting at world level against Chisora, tried and tested fighter.Posted July 20, 2013 8:11 pm
Jimmy Young might have done the same with another round against Foreman.Posted July 20, 2013 7:58 pm
Exactly, remember Foreman was the baddest man on the planet, knocking out Frazier, Norton, everyone else no one expected Ali to do that, knocking out Foreman.Posted July 20, 2013 7:54 pm
Max…That would be a great fight,would like to see that happen.And KO8 really Ali wore out Foreman by his ring IQ and the rope a dope,Foreman was shot because of Ali tactics.Posted July 20, 2013 7:49 pm
Chisora and the ref vs Scott, only ever gonna be one winner.Posted July 20, 2013 7:47 pm
Foreman weared himself out against Ali, Foreman expected to knock him out easily but was absolutely spent by the 8th round, Foreman was exhausted and could not get up.Posted July 20, 2013 7:44 pm
Wonder if he would take a chance on Wilder?Posted July 20, 2013 7:42 pm
Yeah that could be true and he probably cared more than ODLH.Posted July 20, 2013 7:37 pm
Shane…Beating a guy untill hes flopping around like a wet rag,and cant go on.Or beating a guy untill his face looks like he got hit with a meat cleaver,isnt really pathetic.Lets not forget Foreman was a brick wall,hard to even wobble.Even in his comeback when he fought Morrison for the WBO belt Tommy hit him with some solid shots and didnt even knock him down.And Morrison was a very hard puncher, hit like a mule kicked.Posted July 20, 2013 7:36 pm
Scott had little to say when they first counted him out, therefore he lost heart or was tired or was more hurt then we excpected.Like ODL banging the canvas when Hopkins hit him with that body shot,and then jumping up after the 10 count.ODL could have beaten the count that night but wanted no more part of it,made it look like he was upset after the count,knowing full well he didnt want to get up.Scott also didnt seem to have the heart to go on,took alittle to long for such a young hungry fighter to prove himself.A tough young hungry fighter with a good ring IQ wouldnt have played it off like this.Posted July 20, 2013 7:19 pm
Foreman was watching his corner for the signal to get up instead of the ref when he was koed (pushed down from exhaustion) vs Ali. It happens. Man I am remembering Ali's knockouts….and most are quite pathetic. Foreman wasn't even stunned…..Liston dove….Cooper cuts……Chuck Wepner it took like 50 unanswered blows. Khan koed Judah on the books but…no. Joe C koed Manfredo…laugher ……been way worse stoppages.Posted July 20, 2013 7:19 pm
Scott made a huge error getting up as late as he did. Last time I saw this was when Rafael Ruelas lost his first fight in the 2nd round. Ruelas was looking at the corners count and misjudged. Scott should get a rematch if he wants one.Posted July 20, 2013 6:59 pm

Audley "punch bag" Harrison is looking for one last payday (like his last half dozen were "last") against Chisora. For god's sake don't make this fight, Scott was a very good opponent and Harrison would be a monumental backward step that every fan who has a clue will rightly ridicule relentlessly. Harrison you're garbage, go away. Fwank should look at a Wilder or better yet Boytsov.Posted July 20, 2013 6:53 pm

Yep Sesame street was class – Cookie Monster and Oscar the grouch are my favourites. I'd love to see those to go at it in a 4 round exhibition match if Cookie Monster coud stay disciplined enough to make weight.
Much as I loved Sesame Street though, Dangermouse and Bananman were always the ones battling it out for top spot for me.Posted July 20, 2013 6:46 pm

This is like when Judah said he didn`t know he wwas being counted out by Khan.
I think it is because US kids learn to count by watching the COunt on Sesame street. They think that there is supposed to be a "Mwahahahahha" between each number, so they have longer to get up.Posted July 20, 2013 6:34 pm
Gonzo the Dragonborn
The scary thing is, Brother Mongrel, Chisora is no puncher. His technique is awful. He's more sloppy than a blowjob of a drunken old toothless bag lady. lolPosted July 20, 2013 6:32 pm
@ Mongrel: V good! Laughed at that! And, regardless of the talk about the outcome, Chisora by KO! I AM THE GREATEST BOXING PREDICTOR OF ALL TIME!Posted July 20, 2013 6:32 pm

This fight was completely meaningless in the HW landscape. Scott nor Chis were going anywhere no matter what happened. In fact I had forgotten this Scott dude was still even fighting until this. WTF had he been doing?Posted July 20, 2013 6:28 pm
Chisora is the real deal, totally dominated the fight against a world class competitor. He's next in line for a world title fight.Posted July 20, 2013 6:27 pm
Ruskull – you meant terrible, dumb decision to stay down till 9. He knew he was going to get beat so deliberately stayed down.Posted July 20, 2013 6:24 pm
Chisora hit him so hard he lost his ability to count. I hope it returns. They should do a full battery of tests to make sure he can still spell too.Posted July 20, 2013 6:23 pm
von Pugsly
Even though I thought Scott was winning and that the stoppage was bogus, in the end I'd rather watch Chisora fight again on the big stage than watch Malik 'Sparring Partner Syndrome' Scott. Wouldn't mind seeing Chisora against another American HW next, Bryant Jennings. Or, hell, throw him in with Adamek if the Pole wins his tune-up match.Posted July 20, 2013 6:23 pm

Not impressed with Chisora or Scott. Neither of them are world class. All Chisora has is grit, a good engine and a stout chin, whereas all Scott has is pretty nice skills and athleticism.Posted July 20, 2013 6:21 pm
'That was a total BS partisan referee stoppage'- you meant the ref that let him hold non stop the whole fight without a warning? Did the partisan referee also make him fall to the ground and foolishly wait until 9 to try to get up?Posted July 20, 2013 6:19 pm
ggg. agreedPosted July 20, 2013 6:18 pm
TARK – You have to get up before 10, not on 10!!!! He got knocked down and didn't look like he had the heart to continue. It was a cheap way for him to try to save face. pretending he wanted to continue and getting himself timed out. He is a dull boxer with no power that ran like a beeatch for 6 rounds and went down from not a particularly hard puncher. Can you imagine what Vlad would do to him? He would've punched a hole in him.
You have 9 seconds to get up 10 and your out. FFS a ten year old knows that. Just another thing that shows up how little some so called experts on here really know eh TARK LOLPosted July 20, 2013 6:14 pm
TARK, you are talking rubbish, Malik Scott had no problem with it, he made a mistake or was more tired then we thought, Chisora has fought the top fighters, Malik Scott was stepping up.Posted July 20, 2013 6:13 pm
Gonzo the Dragonborn
Leaving it till 9 is never smart. The next number after is 10. And the referee let SCott get away with a ridiculous amount of holding. He should've reprimanded him for it numerous times, and if he continued, started deducting points until he stopped.Posted July 20, 2013 6:12 pm
He was in the act of getting up when the count reached 10, anyway the latest you leave it to start getting up is 8.Posted July 20, 2013 6:11 pm
Malik Scott TARKPosted July 20, 2013 6:10 pm
Jerry Quarry did that when he lost to Chuvalo.Posted July 20, 2013 6:09 pm
That was a total BS partisan referee stoppage.. The rules allow you a full 10 count to get up.. And he got up BEFORE the 10 count was competed. Scott knew he was cheated. He's just hoping for a rematch.
Scott was up BEFORE the count of 10. Everybody saw he was robbed. It was an equilibrium shot like David Price got hit with. The SMART thing to do is take a 9-count so your feet are very steady when you DO get up.. Otherwise if your feet waver even a speck you give the referee an excuse to stop it.. Obviously he wasn't hurt badly.. He could have gotten up immediately, but he has 10 seconds to get up… If the rules stated he has to get up in 9.5 seconds he was STILL up … But he was definitely up before 10. So he was robbed blind.
The referee was harrassing him anyway. They put a partisan bastard in as referee and robbed the fans of a complete fight.Posted July 20, 2013 6:08 pm

knocked out!!!!!! whoop whoop. not on your feet by 10,, your out. cant blame the ref, blame the rules!! maybe change it to 11 seconds ha ha haPosted July 20, 2013 6:03 pm

Sad ending to interesting fight.Scott won 4,Chisora won 1 rounds going into r6.Oneway traffic for Scott.Scott was either gassed out or hurt or miscalculated the count or did he give up.Only he knows.Chisora gets 'hollow' win.Good fight between quality boxers.Posted July 20, 2013 6:02 pm

Malik Scott tried to get up at 9.5 – BAD idea! Good win for Delboy who walked through slick Malik's fire like a tank. That really exposed Malik. A rematch should be fun with the same result. Malik, you either get up at 8 AT THE LATEST, or you're done.Posted July 20, 2013 5:52 pm

English ref at their best Bs stoppage , ref just had enough of the hugging all nitePosted July 20, 2013 5:48 pm
wtf just happened there? Scott makes the biggest mistakes. First he thinks he has it in the bag against Glaskov and gets a tie, then he thinks he can get up with 1/2 second left in the count and loses to Chisora. Everyone gets up at 8 to show the ref they're okay. Terrible ending though, the ref should have examined him quickly and said yeah he's okay. Then the round would have ended, and an interesting fight would have continued. Scott would have had to really try after the 10-8 round, and the last few rounds would have been great.Posted July 20, 2013 5:47 pm

2004 1150gsa Belt replacement question

Joined: Aug 2005

Oddometer: 2,291
You do NOT Have to remove the gas tank.Its pretty straight forward once you get the cover off what i remember.Its been like 60,000 miles ago.
Change Alternator Belt
Tools Parts
T-handle hex – 4mm alternator belt
socket – 13mm
wrench – 13mm
torque wrench
1. Remove the four bolts holding the black plastic alternator belt cover at the front
of the engine, 4mm T-handle hex.
2. Remove the cover by sliding it straight down.
3. Loosen the 2 nuts and 1 bolt, 13mm, that hold the alternator – one is on top
and one is on each side, thus allowing the alternator to pivot down.
4. Remove the old belt.
5. Install the new belt being sure it is properly seated.
6. BMW calls for a tensioning torque of 5.9 ft.lb. (8 Nm) on the adjuster bolt on
the left side of the bike. You have to get at this bolt from the alternator side and
you may have to lift the tank. Alternatively, you can pry the alternator up with a
large screwdriver to tension the belt.
7. Once the belt is under proper tension, tighten the 2 nuts and 1 bolt, 13mm, to
15 ft.lb. (20 Nm).
8. Check the belt for proper tension (see above) and proper seating alignment.

Brigitte Carnochan
"Dryad" – (2001) Hand-painted gelatin silver print
March 01, 2011 — Turning to her archives, Carnochan began poring over some of her favorite unused negatives and discovered that many of the minor negative flaws that are impossible to correct in the darkroom were suddenly easy to address digitally. "I was able to rescue some of these images from obscurity by scanning and then editing them in Photoshop," Carnochan says. "Reading and rereading the poems and working with the negatives I truly loved, I began to make meaningful and symbolic connections." Other times she was inspired to shoot anew. Whereas previously she had shot Konica infrared film, she now turned to her converted Canon EOS 5D to shoot digital "near infrared."

54 year old man | Agoura Hills, CA, USA | Seeking women 45-55 within 75 miles
I was on Match about two years ago and met...
I was on Match about two years ago and met some really nice women, but the fact of the matter was that I wasn't really in a good place to be dating. I didn't have the time, energy, money or, most importantly, emotional clarity to do it right. I love being in a relationship and the discovery and romance that come with it, but there was just too much crap going on in my life for me to be able to be 100% committed. Now, slowly, I'm working my way back into it, just looking around. That said, if I were to meet someone on here who has that certain something, that intangible, that moxie, that je ne sais quoi, well, who am I to fight the universe? 2 things: 1. This glass that everyone is talking about, you know, the one that is "half-full." How come I don't have one? I just drink from the hose. 2. Why would anyone want to lie either in text or photo, when trying to start a relationship or even making a friend? I mean, it's all going to go downhill from there. In my past life I was a director and writer so I can be somewhat complex, but I'm also interesting and can make you laugh. I mean, doubled over milk violently shooting out of your nose laugh. (there's an image to savor) A sense of humor is all about intelligence. I love intelligence. There is nothing, and I mean NOTHING, as attractive and sexy as brains. Period. I really like people who can intellectually spar with me. It's not about being a "know it all" it's more about learning from others and broadening your knowledge base. It's possible to disagree without being disagreeable. I'm not hard to get along with, but it can be difficult to hold my attention. Just being honest. I currently work a day job that pays next to nothing (humbling after that Hollywood money), but I'm learning a skill that I need to start my business and when I launch it in the spring I'll get to work two full time jobs. WooHoo! Lucky me. I Have an awesome son (12) whom I adore. I'm a kid at heart and he's a fountain of youth, so yeah, we get along. I am 53, I look younger, act younger and have a love of life. I feel like I'm a student everyday and go out to learn something, anything! Sometimes I have the mind of a 13 year old (don't think acting like a teenager every once in a while is a bad thing), it helps me see things in a different way. I Love music. My iPod(s) are packed with it. Love to listen to it, try to play it, sing out loud without prompting and will pretty much go to any live concert if you give me 5 to get ready. I want to be up front about something. I shun organized religion like the plague. Wholesale manipulation & a waste of a Sunday morning. Nature is my church. One other thing, because I think it's important: I have a very amicable relationship with my ex wife. We have a son whom we share custody of and love dearly. Us getting along is important for his health, development and well being. My status is "separated" but the papers are filed and should be signed by the judge by year's end or very soon there after. Enough about me, but here are 3 of my favorite quotes to for you to think about. I yam who I yam and that's who I yam! ~ Popeye The greatest obstacle to discovery is not ignorance - it is the illusion of knowledge.- Daniel J. Boorstin Until one is committed, there is hesitancy, the chance to draw back, always ineffectiveness. Concerning all acts of initiative there is one elementary truth, the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and splendid plans: the moment one definitely commits oneself, then Providence moves too. All sorts of things occur to help one that would otherwise never have occurred. A whole stream of events issues from the decision, raising in one's favor all manner of incidents and meetings and material assistance which no man would have believed would have come his way. Whatever you think you can do or believe you can do, begin it. Action has power, grace and magic in it. - Goethe

Hi guys :) has anyone tried using Omeprazole with a horse that has ulcers? I talked to a vet (not mine but she was at the yard talking to someone else who's horse might have ulcers) today and she said this drug is expensive but effective. I was wondering what other people's experiences were of it before giving it a try.
Cheers in adavance!

ARKOMA — While the Arkoma Mustangs have been a playoff team before, they have never won a football playoff game before.
That could change Friday night as the Mustangs (6-3) entertain the Timberlake Tigers (6-4) at 7:30 p.m. in a Class C opening-round playoff contest.
"I wouldn't even know how to say it," senior Darion Brumfield said about the emotions a Friday night victory would create. "I would be proud of myself to have been a part of it."

Yesterday during his AIPAC speech, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu signaled his country will not sit back and watch as Iran obtains a nuclear weapon, the same nuclear weapon Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad would surely use to eliminate the Jewish State. From Commentary:
"Unfortunately, Iran's nuclear program continues to march forward…We've waited for diplomacy to work. We've waited for sanctions to work. None of us can afford to wait much longer. As prime minister of Israel, I will never let my people live in the shadow of annihilation."
No diplomacy and no sanctions leave just one other option on the table. And the line at the end shows that Netanyahu hasn't made Obama any promises against taking unilateral action.
Later in the speech, Netanyahu spoke about how America declined to bomb Auschwitz in 1944, out of concern that "such an effort might provoke even more vindictive action by the Germans."
"The American government today is different," continued Netanyahu. "You heard that from President Obama's speech yesterday. But here's my point. The Jewish people are also different. Today we have a state of our own. And the purpose of a Jewish state is to secure Jewish lives and a Jewish future. Never again…We deeply appreciate the great alliance between our two countries. But when it comes to Israel's survival, we must always remain the masters of our fate."
Yesterday during a meeting with Netanyahu, Obama said he hopes for more diplomacy while Netanyahu made it clear Israel will do what it needs against Iran in order to protect itself, with or without the United States.

Originally written on Fox Sports Kansas City | Last updated 1/25/13
KANSAS CITY, Mo. No one knows you better than family. At least that was Royals first baseman Eric Hosmers philosophy this off-season as he made preparations to come back better than ever in 2013. After a dismal season in 2012 in which Hosmer hit just .232 with 14 homers and 60 RBIs, Hosmer went back to his Florida home and worked out with his older brother, Mike Jr. I actually bought a house in the Miami area with some land, Hosmer said. I got a batting cage set up there and I worked out with Mike. During the season its a faster pace and theres a game every night so you dont get a chance to slow things down and analyze it the way you want. I went home and I had my brother take a look at my swing. He's been watching my swing ever since I was a little kid. I told him, 'If you don't see anything that you didn't see when I was a little kid, let me know.' We basically worked the whole offseason and we feel like we're in a good spot now. I finally got to sit back, slow everything dow...

|Seller's Description
Transitional ELEY factory .577 EXPRESS made for the HOWDAH pistol shown. These large caliber pistols were made for TIGER hunting and were originally double barreled short barrel shotguns with a pistol grip. The first were muzzle loaders and then in the later 1800s were chambered for the .577 BOXER cartridge. These were coiled brass and paper shells. Some of the early guns were chambered for the full length BOXER case but other used the short version seen here. As production of the BOXER cartridge went away drawn brass cases were used. this .577 x 1 5/8 ELEY EXPRESS HOWDAH cartridge was a special factory order. The other empty brass cases can be seen in the box. Excellent condition. Tooling up for cases for such a small demand was not necessary. In this case the 577/500 case was used. ************************************************************************** THIS SALE IS FOR THE SINGLE LONG BRASS CASE ON THE LEFT IN THE PHOTO.

December 13, 2011 — Every federal IT professional will have to cut parts of their IT budget next year.
The question is . . .which parts do you keep?
Traditionally, managers sit around a table and have an discussion about aspects of the proposed budget.
Somehow, an informal accommodation is made and a budget is agreed upon.
Unfortunately, today we do not have the luxury of making subjective decisions in tight financial times.
Additionally, agencies are encouraged to make decisions in a more collaborative and transparent manner.
Easy to say . . .hard to accomplish.
Decision Lens provides a solution that may be of value.
On today's show, Dan Saaty discusses prioritization software – a process based in mathematics that weighs variables in order to make a decision.
The process includes defining goals, engaging stakeholders, critical relationships, and exploring scenarios.
The advanced mathematical model used is called the analytic hierarchy process.
Decision Lens has been used by organizations as disparate as the Green Bay Packers to the U.S. Navy.

Harlan Ellison at DreamHaven Books in Minneapolis, MN, photo by Sara Gries:
11 thoughts on "Harlan Has A Posse"
Makes me miss that place. I'll have to call Lance.
I recall a sci-fi con considering having Ellison at the con an entirely seperate problem from everything else. Just because he's motherfucking Harlan Ellison.
I was over there early with Misha. He talked about the joys of White Castle for about the first twenty minutes. I was too intimidated to meet him. My ex boyfriend was also there.
It was a weird day.
When the fuck was that? I live like 3 blocks from there. (RIP)
Hee hee, I worked there for years. I still chill with Lance and EV and Greg and crew every Wednesday – be there or be square, Mpls Motherfuckers!
Harlan Ellison slowly morphs into Truman Capote.
The horror. The horror…
Yeah, holy crap! The man has AGED!
Can't wait to meet up with him in an elevator again someday –
– gonna kick me some geriatric Harlan-ass!
Why does that photo remind me of the 'bikers' t-shirt advert that used to appear in Heavy Metal Magazine..?
Man, it's weird to see this sort of thing…my friend has a weekly pull there so I end up at DreamHaven all the time. Best place to buy paperback sci-fi and early editions of classics.
Your posse could beat up his posse.
Damn straight, Harlan has a posse!!! I happen to be second from the left behind Harlan in this photo and I say "Come on if you think you're hard enough!" :¬)

There are some thing I've found that could be fixed which I lack the skills to tackle. High resolution video recording is a good example. As far as I can tell, the limiting factor is the crappy sensors drivers from CAF; they don't offer different resolutions for preview output and recording.

OKLAHOMA CITY-- Even the post-game crowd at the arena bar was light. Usually the line wraps past the velvet ropes just outside the court at Chesapeake Arena and usually the music is loud and thumping with folks ready to talk about what they just saw. Guess there was no reason to stick around on a Monday and celebrate. On a night that had makings of fascinating, the Mavericks brought the dull and the Thunder did what they were supposed to do, sucking the drama from the building with a big second quarter and going on to an easy win. But the story from Monday could have been Dallas and could have been a number of different plot twists and storylines. None of those came to be and the 112-91 Oklahoma City victory was boring, dull and routine. And just in time, because the Thunder needed a big dose of Monday. Recently it's been too many losses, not enough wins and not near enough fire in the past nine games as the Thunder have won five times and lost four since Jan 18, trading off w...

The National Rifle Association wants to put armed police officers in every public school to deter or stop future mass shootings such as the Dec. 14 attack that killed 20 children and six school professionals in Newtown, Conn.
Miles Turner, executive director of the Wisconsin Association of School District Administrators, has been working on behalf of Wisconsin public schools for decades. He retires July 1.
What does Turner think of the NRA's proposal, which is an admission that Newtown-like school shootings can't be stopped?
"Armed officers in schools is a bandage on a cancerous sore," said Turner, who has observed schools around the world. "Is being the only country in the world that has armed police in their public schools a distinction we can be proud of?"
And that also goes for ideas to arm and train security guards, school administrators and teachers, Turner said, adding:
"At this time, placing armed 'people' in the schools raises many serious questions. Who will these people be? What screening will they have to pass? What training will they have? What arms will they be allowed to carry? What is the psychological effect on our children growing up in an armed environment? The cost will be substantial, so who will pay?"
Turner's comment about the "psychological effect on our children" who learn that it takes an armed guard to be safe brought back a memory.
In the mid-1990s, our oldest son, Eric, went to Madison's La Follette High School and, in one of those how-was-your-day talks over dinner, he said he was stunned when a Madison police officer with gun drawn ran down the hall outside his classroom.
Last week, I asked Eric about his memories of seeing armed officers at La Follette and how he reacted.
"Having cops and guns in the school was scary and made me feel that the school itself was more dangerous than I thought," Eric recalled.
"It made me hesitant to attend more optional school activities, because the presence of the cops made me think there would be violence. It also seemed to get the gang-banger guys riled up - like they were expecting a fight with the cops . . . or that the school had been turned into an acceptable place to do violence."
Which prompted this question to Madison Police Officer Howard Payne, a spokesman for the state's second-largest police department: Are armed Madison police officers already on duty in the city's schools? Yes.
"There are four officers that work in each of the Madison Metropolitan high schools (East, West, La Follette and Memorial)," Payne explained. "These officers work full time throughout the school year in uniform and are at the high schools during school hours and some special events (proms, athletic events, etc.)."
Four other officers work primarily in the city's public and private elementary schools teaching classes on personal safety, Payne added. "They do not work full time at any particular school and rotate in and out of a number of schools throughout the city, providing more exposure and coverage."
Jim Fendry, founder of the Wisconsin Pro-Gun Movement that is allied with the NRA, explained that America must "do something" to stop mass school shootings.
"We as people are responsible to protect ourselves," Fendry said in a WisconsinEye interview. "What else can you do, except to have a paid-for armed officer - whether he's a security officer well-trained; a police officer, if the community has the money to do it, and, failing that, teachers that are interested, know how to handle firearms safely and efficiently, carrying concealed weapons?"
Fendry said, "how different it would have been" at Sandy Hook Elementary School if the school principal or school psychologist, who both were killed, had been trained and carrying a gun.
"It only takes one well-placed shot to stop the threat," added Fendry, a former police officer.
But Turner offered other solutions:
"The first thing that has to be done is increase funding for psychological services for our students. With all the budget cuts, our public schools are woefully underfunded in their ability to serve children in the area of mental health."
"Investment in prevention through mental health services is far more important to pursue immediately than options that place guns in schools."

Well, i agree with the changes as i mentioned before, but most new of new players would run away when trying to level up and some of the game mechanics are inaccessible or useless for their level, but still, nero was there as an easy mode; thought nero requires some work to master and use him effectively.
As for advanced players, yeah Lucifer requires some annoying stuff like triangle> JC > guard if you want to maintain your altitude and position. But really it is supposed to be a long ranged weapon and an easy pinup> explode for damage, and players are supposed to find things out but not up to lucifer's juggles and properties, and remember that its juggling is enemy specific and that is big nope for most players, aside from having to specialize in using a weapon that isn't well rounded and easy to use.
I find lucifer fine as it is, but a bit excessive, they should make it a bit more effective and add a layer or a level of usage that is accessible before using its juggles and stun properties in the air.

"They did everything wrongly in this game" but didn't it have potential?
If they did everything wrong then that would seem to indicate "no"...?

As a kid growing up in India, Rajeev Bhaman had a reputation as a know-it-all, with his younger sister calling him a walking encyclopedia. "When I was a kid, a friend of mine turned me on to the idea of Shakespeare as 'myriad-minded.' That's always been my model," says the manager of the $10 billion Oppenheimer Global fund (ticker: OPPAX).
He has taken that to heart as an investor, as well. Instead of poring over financial statements and quantitative models, Bhaman finds ideas and investing lessons from a myriad of sources, including lectures about the evolution of species, an array of books that currently includes a spy novel, a book on poverty, and speeches by former Australian prime minister and "master debater" Paul Keating—even his two young children. "I try to leave myself open to serendipity," says Bhaman, 49.
Oppenheimer Global's Rajeev Bhaman finds stock ideas in literature, the news, and even from his kids. Evan Kafka for Barron's
He encourages his two analysts to seek ideas amid their interests. The trio constantly exchanges reading material, and discussions tend to be impromptu rather than scheduled, with Bhaman eschewing anything pro forma. ("You can't think on demand," he says.) The fund goals, though, are anything but peripatetic: All stock picks, no matter where the ideas originate, are expected to double in five years.
Bhaman has delivered. He launched the Oppenheimer Developing Market fund (ODMAX) in 1996. Its average annual return trounced the MSCI Emerging Markets Index by 11 percentage points during his eight-year tenure. He has managed Oppenheimer Global for nine years now; its average annual return over the past five years is 15.8%, beating 81% of its peers in the world stock category, according to Morningstar. The fund has 40% of its assets in U.S. stocks.
Once Bhaman buys a stock, he's in for the long haul; 85% of the fund's top 20 holdings have been in the portfolio for at least three years. He has owned Grupo Televisa TV 1.6644993498049414% Grupo Televisa S.A.B.

Quoting the Bhagavad Gita, Bhaman says, "In inaction there is action." In other words, his portfolio may not look all that different year to year—turnover is just 12%—but the returns speak for themselves.
The long-term view and willingness to ride out shorter-term problems create a bit of a contrarian bent. For example, he bought health-care insurers when low interest rates and hand-wringing pushed them to levels that suggested they had lost their "raison d'être." More recently, he has bought Danish cement-plant maker FLSmidth FLS.KO -2.0408163265306123% FLSmidth & Co. A/S ADS U.S.: OTC USD4.8 -0.1 -2.0408163265306123% /Date(1435702801000-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 269 AFTER HOURS USD4.87 0.07 1.4583333333333333% Volume (Delayed 15m) : 28 P/E Ratio 14.401440144014401 Market Cap 2458359162.0136 Dividend Yield 2.6942291666666667% Rev. per Employee 252715 More quote details and news » (FLS.Denmark), which also supplies equipment to the minerals industry, at a time many think the commodities cycle and emerging markets are dead.
Bhaman uses a "Mantra" to narrow his universe—his acronym for mass affluence, new technology, restructuring, and aging.
Luxury-good makers are a play on mass affluence—especially in China, where a desire to seek out differentiation as a status symbol causes people to pay more than other consumers for products.
The new Chinese leadership is cracking down on conspicuous consumption and flashy gift-giving with recent political rhetoric, but Bhaman says the longer-term trend is intact. He favors firms known for craftsmanship, heritage, and innovation, like Italian shoemaker Tod's TOD.mi -1.7889087656529516% Tod's S.p.A. Italy: Milan EUR82.35 -1.5 -1.7889087656529516% /Date(1436198720000-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 55634 P/E Ratio 25.977917981072554 Market Cap 2580372546.34216 Dividend Yield 2.428658166363084% Rev. per Employee 224699 More quote details and news » (TOD.Italy). It also exemplifies two other traits important to Bhaman—shareholder-friendly practices and a management focused on longer-term results.
Bhaman's predilection for certain parts of the market means that the fund can look different than its MSCI World benchmark, says Karin Anderson, fund analyst at Morningstar. For example, Bhaman's Mantra strategy generally eliminates energy and commodities firms, which means the fund lags when those sectors rally. The focus on valuation also sets him apart from other growth managers, as does his long-term view.
Bhaman says that his children's constant query "Why?" reminds him to question his thesis. Take McDonald's MCD 0.42815371762740184% McDonald's Corp. U.S.: NYSE USD96.17 0.41 0.42815371762740184% /Date(1435870805563-0500)/ Volume (Delayed 15m) : 3204576 AFTER HOURS USD96.17 % Volume (Delayed 15m) : 46321 P/E Ratio 21.562780269058297 Market Cap 92180387203.6468 Dividend Yield 3.5354060517833004% Rev. per Employee 63571.2 More quote details and news » (MCD). Bhaman avoided the stock in the past because he shared many of the same prejudices about the fast-food giant that others had, including concerns about obesity. But he came across the company at a consumer-goods conference—something he rarely attends—as it was talking about refurbishing its stores, introducing cafes, and healthier options. Its restructuring led Bhaman to buy the stock when it was less than $50. It's now at $94.

The chips cost very little but are crucial to the product working and are difficult to switch out, resulting in high margins.
Health-care plays on several of his favorite themes, including aging and a rising middle class, especially in areas technology has influenced. He makes an analogy to the computer revolution, which began with the personal computer, but took off when the Internet transformed everything. "The second-order effect was how computers changed our lives," Bhaman says. "We are at the cusp of that in medicine."

One of the biggest portfolio changes in the past 18 months has been an increase in financial companies, now that some of the traits that kept Bhaman away have begun to change. Financial institutions now need more capital backing their loans, and there are constraints on management pay and limits to the types of risks they can take. Perhaps more importantly, returns are likely to rise as the world goes from too much capital to too little, giving banks an edge.
Most recently, Bhaman has used the rout in emerging markets, which makes up about 10% of assets, to add to India's ICICI Bank (IBN). He acknowledges that some companies in the developing world face some near-term challenges, but he says their valuations in some cases have baked in twice the hit, so he's on the lookout for bargains.

- Perfect for heavily traveled doorways and room openings
- One-of-a-kind handle design integrates Pressure-Plus Technology which forces additional outward pressure on the door opening to maximize gate stability after each use
- Easy, one hand operation
- No damage to walls or doorways
- Installs quickly; No tools needed
Q: Why is my gate wider at the top when I take it out of the box?A: The gate is visibly wider at the top so during installation when the top spindles are being adjusted, the gate pushes inward, applying extra pressure and offering more stability.Q: I don't want to drill into my walls or staircase, so why cant' I use a pressure mount gate at the top of my stairs? A: Some manufacturers do state that their pressure mount gates can be used at the top of stairs when wall mount cups are installed. However, KidCo does not recommend this use at all since pressure mount gates have a cross-bar at the bottom to hold the gate in place and this cross-bar can be a tripping hazard.

Breaking Through: Lance Coury – More Motocross Videos
Lance Coury could very well be considered one of Freestyle Motocross' top riders who, until 2013, has yet to receive an invite for the sport's biggest competition… X Games. After spending quite a few years riding for the likes of some very big companies (Red Bull, Nike, and Swatch), Coury decided to move on with his career and join Cary Hart's Hart & Huntington team. A new bike and a new look was what perhaps Coury needed as he finally earned himself a spot in the 2013 Brazil X Games Moto X Speed & Style event. In his first X Games appearance ever, Lance Coury did exactly what he knew he could do… Win. Taking home a gold medal in his first X Games appearance, it's evident that Coury is finally breaking through and showing his ability to the world.

Dog Classes, Hollywood-Style
Dogs do not just roll over and play dead in Hollywood. It takes a good trainer and lots of practice.
By: SUE MANNING - Associated Press
A contender for Beverly Hills Chihuahua?
In Jaime Van Wye's Hollywood Tricks class, dogs learn to throw themselves on the ground and die dramatically. Olive, a 5-year-old English shepherd, goes to the ground when she hears the command "Bang, bang," but keeps her head up until she hears a third bang, said owner Sherry Marks.
When Laura Milton forms her hand into a gun her Rottweiler, Mojo, will roll over with his feet up in the air and his paws hanging limp.
Successful graduates of the class can also fetch beer from the fridge, take your socks off, grab a cell phone when it rings or help collect the laundry. "In L.A. everybody wants their dogs to be in the movies, you know how it is," Van Wye said.
Made for Hollywood
The tricks series is made for Hollywood. Van Wye, the daughter of NBA Hall of Famer Gail Goodrich, first had a boarding kennel that catered to customers like Tom Cruise, Kelly Clarkson and Tyra Banks. Then she and her husband opened the Zoom Room and came up with Hollywood Tricks to set her centre apart.
Her own dog, a Komodor named Clyde Orange, has been in a movie or two ("Marmaduke" and the yet-to-be-released "Beverly Hills Chihuahua 2"). His specialty is taking her socks off, and they've got a spot to show off that trick on Jay Leno's "Tonight" show. "He's like a celebrity," Van Wye said.
Through the hurdles
The Zoom Room teaches 78 different behaviours. In addition to standard hoops and hurdles, dogs learn to skateboard, walk a plank and play basketball. That last trick has nothing to do with her father, Van Wye said. It was designed around one of her students who liked to jump.
Classes don't teach barking or growling because those can be too hard to turn off. And so far, there has been no call for a dance class.
Milton, a magazine art director, said she decided against a Hollywood career for Mojo, but what Mojo got was better -- friends and fans. "A lot of people are intimidated by Rottweilers. When he does his little repertoire of tricks, the fear is gone," she said.
Mark Bordelon, a 44-year-old educator, enrolled his German sheperd Zola in an agility class because she was so shy and fearful. In the tricks class, it took her just five tries to balance a bone on her nose.
"Even dogs need self-actualization," Bordelon said.www.zoomroomonline.com

Quidditch Set
A Buyer reached out with a unique request for a Harry Potter Quidditch set. She was looking for lifelike replicas, which I was able to make. The Golden Snitch, an integral part of the Quidditch game, was made to have a hidden compartment so it could hold an engagement ring.
The box design had to be in keeping with the look and feel of the Harry Potter series, so we gave it an aged patina with custom made hardware.
This project used all of the techniques that we employee in our carved sign business.
What a wonderful commission!
