"If I've learned something," Gracie told MMAjunkie.com (MMAjunkie.com) about his decade-plus prepping fighters to become UFC champions, "it's don't let the hype get to you."
Gracie has long identified the 27-year-old lightweight title challenger as a future champion. Nate Diaz has endured hype perhaps longer and more substantiated than anyone in his decorated camp. At 22, Diaz won "The Ultimate Fighter" reality series' inaugural 155-pound tournament in 2007. With a win this weekend, Diaz would be the first "TUF winner" or alum for that matter to become champion since Forrest Griffin and Rashad Evans, who are the only two fighters to enter the octagon via "TUF" all the way up to the title, did so in 2008.
"People never thought [Diaz] was going to get there," Gracie said. "He's obviously proven that he deserves to be here. Like I said, I expected it, so I'm not surprised at all. It's just a matter of time, so that's the way it is."
As he came into the UFC, Diaz's youth and lanky, unassuming 6-foot-tall, 155-pound frame led to early underdog status. Throwing up double-barrel middle fingers during April 2008's flying-triangle-choke finish of Kurt Pellegrino highlighted his star potential. Winning just one of his next four, though, found a frustrated Diaz journey to 170 pounds for a 13-month stint and 2-2 record. However, his 8-5 mark in the octagon improved to 11-5 in the past 16 months with Diaz revitalized by a return to lightweight. The subsequent three-fight win streak earned the Stockton, Calif. native his chance at Henderson and $215,000 in disclosed performance bonuses.
Gracie insists Diaz will be his first UFC champion because his fighter works for those skills and plainly, "That's the plan." Still, the dollars and landmarks Diaz amassed to achieve No. 1 contender's status posses many of fight hype's combustible elements.
His UFC 135 "Submission of the Night" win over former PRIDE lightweight champ Takanori Gomi put the first big-show titleholder on his resume. A late-2011 "Fight of the Night" throwdown at UFC 141 saw Diaz set a UFC three-round striking record as he nailed a game Donald "Cowboy" Cerrone with 82 percent accuracy (258 of 314 punches). Finally, Diaz overcame a home-field disadvantage at UFC on FOX 3 as he stopped Jim Miller for the first time in the New Jersey native's 25 professional outings.
"Anytime you have a championship fight in the UFC, there's a lot of media, and there's a lot of talking," Gracie said. "You get barraged. There's a lot of hype that gets built up. If you let that get to you, you don't perform correctly. The best thing is to train, train, train and take is as another fight you have to win."
Titleholders are not foreign to Gracie's camp; it's just that none has been in the octagon. In 2010 Gracie touted Strikeforce lightweight champion Gilbert Melendez alongside welterweight champ Nick Diaz and middleweight titleholder Jake Shields. That was before Diaz and Shields left behind their belts for UFC title shots. Yet there isn't much verbal guidance offered to Nate Diaz ahead of his UFC title bid, Gracie said. It's a lead-by-example gym. And in this case, it's up to Diaz to be the example.
"These guys are champions whether they have a belt or not," Gracie said of his stable. "They are up there in the cream-of-the-crop level. Obviously we want Nate to be champ so people can give him the respect that he deserves."
Back in 2010 at the WEC's final event, Anthony Pettis' flying roundhouse springboard off the cage helped deliver Henderson his only career Zuffa loss. That once-in-a-lifetime highlight didn't finish Henderson, so Gracie hopes his fighter can be decisive enough even if it goes the distance.
"The judges don't really care about the Diazes that much their talking style," Gracie said regarding his camp's attitude toward decisions and the way the Diaz brothers may be perceived by judges for the in-cage antics.
And he then thought about it some more.
"I'm not going to say no decisions will go our way, but it's certainly not going to be well, we don't expect close decisions to go our way," said Gracie, concluding his thoughts on the subject with a laugh. "We'll be surprised."
Henderson is an athletic and tough southpaw champion. Gracie recognizes he is mentally durable too. The MMA Lab representative's 11 appearances under the Zuffa banner 5-1 WEC and an unblemished 5-0 UFC mark offer little blueprint on how to defeat the 29-year-old. Maybe it's Diaz's current hype that cut a nearly 3-to-1 opening betting line in half with fight night looming. Perhaps it's the concrete numbers in his performances.
It's compelling to wax philosophical on the UFC's first lightweight title bout to hit FOX's airwaves, but the hype isn't the pressure that matters, Gracie said.
"I think [Diaz] is going to do what Pettis did to him and pressure him a lot," he said. "Get in his face. Really bring the fight to the guy. Put the fight on his terms. But that's what Ben Henderson is going to try to do to Nate. So I'm expecting a great fight."

So I fully understand... in the recipe, you recommend using (both) 3/4 c liquid sweetener and 3/4 c granulated sweetener?
Thank you in advance,

could you omit the liquid sweetener and use just the granulated?

Using some syrup improves texture. Often corn syrup is used-- I use brown rice syrup instead. Agave or golden syrup could be used as well.

Dorothy Buck Raphael of Warren passed away on December 21, 2006, in her 87th year. She was born in New Glasgow, Nova Scotia, one of eight children of William and Isabelle (Grant) Buck.
Dorothy grew up in Canada and attended the Margaret Eaton School for Girls in Toronto. In 1939 she enlisted in the Royal Canadian Air Force and served until 1943. After the war she attended McGill University and graduated with a bachelor of science degree in physical therapy. She then moved to New York and received a master's degree in guidance and personnel administration from NYU. She became employed as the assistant to the director of the children's division of the Institute of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation in New York City working with handicapped children.
She married Albert A. Raphael Jr. of New York City in 1960. She is survived by her husband of Warren; her son, Bruce Raphael and his wife, Lisa, and their twins, Ashley and William, all of Andover, MA. Bruce is a third generation lawyer in the Raphael family.
Dorothy and Al met while skiing in Manchester, VT, and were lifelong lovers of the sport. In 1966, they purchased a small vacation house in Waitsfield on the hill behind the Howard Bank. However, they decided that Vermont was a better environment for bringing up Bruce, and that traveling from New York City didn't cut it. In 1971 they took the plunge, built a home in Waitsfield and became full-time residents. Al began to practice law in the Mad River Valley and in a couple of years had weaned himself completely away from his New York practice.
Along the way, Al and others purchased the Village Square Shopping Center. It is family lore that Al needed a tenant for the Center and inveigled Dottie in 1973 into opening a toy store which she owned and operated for five years. She became one of Al's first Vermont clients!
These were busy years for Dorothy, raising Bruce, running The Toy Store and taking care of her home and husband. Nevertheless she continued her love of skiing and she, Al and Bruce could often be seen on the ski slopes in winter and on the golf course in summer. In 2004, Dorothy and Al downsized to a condominium at The Farms in Warren.
Dorothy contracted breast cancer in 1971 but was fully active for 34 years! In the past year and a half her health failed and she finally succumbed to the disease.
There are no services. For those who wish, memorial gifts would be appreciated to Central Vermont Home Health and Hospice, 600 Granger Road, Barre, VT 05641, or to the Mad River Valley Community Fund, P.O. Box 353, Waitsfield, VT 05673. The family is being assisted by the Perkins-Parker Funeral Home and Cremation Service in Waterbury. To send online condolences, please visit www.perkinsparker.com.

Cheerleading competition held in Ona
ONA -- It was all about spirit, smiles and having a good time at the Tri-State Youth Football League Cheerleading Competition on Saturday at Cabell Midland High School.
At least 450 girls on 57 teams from the 16-league organization took to the floor to show their stuff in the annual competition, which is organized by T.S.Y.F.L. during the last week of the league's regular football season, said Stephanie Ward, executive assistant for the league.
While the goals of each squad member might be to go home with the big trophy, Ward said her primary focus is making sure all of the cheerleaders enjoy themselves.
"All year the girls cheer for the football teams as they battle to make it to the Turf Bowl, and, in that way, this event is like the cheerleaders' Turf Bowl where they get to show off what they have learned all season," Ward said. "It's fun for the kids, but you do have to be careful because adults can become very competitive during these events. We make sure we stress to everyone that our ultimate goal in all of this is for these kids to come here and have fun no matter if they win or lose."
Kristy Ellison and her Vinson Youth League cheerleaders did find themselves having a slightly extraordinary day after the league's B and C Teams each placed first in two categories, and the C Team eventually took the Grand Champion title in the small division competition early in the day.
"It's important to make sure the kids are having fun and learning about sportsmanship," said Ellison, the cheerleading coordinator for the Vinson league. "While I'm thrilled that they won, they knew coming in here that it wasn't the most important thing, and they did their best knowing that."

While Apple only officially announced its 2014 Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) last week, we have been reporting all of the known information about what Apple plans to unveil at the event over the course of the past few months. Now that WWDC is official, we have compiled a roundup of everything we know about Apple's next-generation iOS device and Mac operating systems below, and we've also included some new tidbits not found in our earlier reporting. You can find out what there is to know so far about iOS 8 and OS X 10.10 below:
iOS 8 – Codenamed Okemo:
iOS 8 is the next version of Apple's software for the iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch, and it is the first major successor to the significant redesign that was iOS 7. For iOS 8, Apple is retaining the same Jony Ive-designed aesthetic found in iOS 7 and is focusing on additions involving applications, services, and performance. iOS 8 will represent Apple moving into the fitness and health tracking world and it will mark a major milestone in Apple's efforts to bring its mapping solution up-to-par with competitors from Google and Microsoft.
– Healthbook:
The most significant new application that Apple is currently planning to add in iOS 8 is codenamed Healthbook. Healthbook is an application that aggregates health and fitness data from various applications and hardware accessories. The application is akin to Passbook in terms of user-interface design, and users will be able to customize their Healthbook to give visual priority to health statistics that are most important to them. Healthbook is capable of tracking data for various bloodwork details, heart rate, blood pressure, nutrition, blood sugar, sleep, respiratory rate, oxygen saturation, weight, and activity.
The Activity section can track steps taken, calories burned, and miles walked. The Weight tab can track a person's weight, BMI, and fat %. The current health accessory marketplace includes wireless weight scales, so it is likely that Healthbook will receive its data from those types of products. Both of those aforementioned tabs will have an interface with graphs and charts so that users could track their fitness progress over daily, weekly, monthly, and yearly views. Our earlier reporting on Healthbook goes into further detail about why the application is critical and how it could interact with future Apple wearable devices.
Another important element of Healthbook is the Emergency Card function. The Emergency Card is a single place for users to store information about themselves. The Emergency Card can keep a person's name, photograph, birthdate, blood type, organ donor status, emergency contact information, weight, and a list of medication prescriptions. This Emergency Card function could save lives and provide emergency technicians, nurses, hospitals, and doctors with vital information about patients in emergency situations.
– Maps:
For iOS 8, Apple is planning to overhaul its previously bug-riddled in-house mapping software. The updated application will retain the same user-interface introduced last year with iOS 7, but it will be updated with improved mapping data, better clarity, and important new features.
The updated app is said to include tweaked cartography, clearer labeling, and improved notating of bus stops, train stations, and airports. That is all in addition to upgraded data that is more reliable and more plentiful.
The improved data also makes way for a major new feature: public transit directions. Apple won't be the first to this feature (Google has had it for several years), but the addition is a change in direction from when former iOS chief Scott Forstall said in 2012 that Apple would leave transit to third-party developers.
Thanks to several acquisitions of transit specialist companies, iOS 8's Maps app will have transit functionality deeply embedded for several cities around the world. Transit will allow people to navigate using busses, trains, and subways, and it will also include improved navigating to nearby airports.
The transit feature will be integrated as both a new view (in addition to Standard, Hybrid, and Satellite), and it will also be a new option alongside walking and driving for directions. While transit will be integrated, Apple will still be able to point users to third-party transit apps like it has done since iOS 6's launch. Transit directions will work for both future trip planning and for immediate navigation.
– iTunes Radio:
For iOS 8, Apple is considering breaking out the Music app's iTunes Radio functionality into its own, standalone application. As a tab in the already-existing Music app, iTunes Radio has not received a promoted presence on iOS, and this likely has deterred growth for the service in terms of advertising revenue and usage.
As a standalone application, users will be able to more quickly access iTunes Radio. Psychologically for users, iTunes Radio will be its own app competing with the likes of the Pandora, Spotify, and iHeartRadio apps found on the App Store. The benefit for Apple, however, is that iTunes Radio will be pre-installed. The interface for the standalone iTunes Radio application is said to be nearly identical to the one found inside of the iOS Music app and its Home screen icon is a terrestrial radio graphic atop a red background.
The functionality of iTunes Radio will also be akin to its iOS 7 Music app counterpart. Users will be able to browse their history, purchase streamed tracks, locate Featured Stations, create stations based on songs, artists, and albums, and manage stations. Apple previously considered releasing iTunes Radio as a standalone application in iOS 6, but due to problems with striking record label deals, the company ultimately pushed the launch back to iOS 7.
Apple has previously removed functionality from the standard iOS Music (formally called iPod) app and separated functionality into standalone apps. For example, Apple moved video playback for movies, TV shows, and music videos from the iPod app into a Videos app with iOS 5. With iOS 6, Apple began promoting Podcasts as its own App Store app and removed playback from the Music app. In early 2012, Apple re-located playback of iTunes University content to its own app.
The considerations also make sense in light of Apple recently adding more functionality to iTunes Radio, such as news from NPR.
– Voice over LTE:
Another significant addition being considered for iOS 8 and the next-generation iPhone is voice-over-LTE support (VoLTE), according to carrier sources. Currently, when an LTE-capable iPhone needs to make a phone call, the actual call is placed over last generation networks such as 3G. With VoLTE, calls will be transmitted over the same type of network that LTE data is processed through, and this can allow for benefits such as improved call quality.
Of course, carrier support is needed for this functionality, and some countries around the world have carriers that have already rolled out support for VoLTE. For those in the United States, T-Mobile's network (thanks to its agreement with Metro PCS) supports VoLTE while Verizon Wireless and AT&T are actively testing the functionality for a rollout later this year. Of course, it's plausible that iOS 8 support for VoLTE will be pushed back if enough carriers are unable to meet the rollout timeframe.
– Messages:
Apple is said to be considering adding the ability for Messages threads in iOS 8 to automatically be deleted. The options for auto-deleting of threads on a user's local device are said to be removal after a month or after a year. The functionality is being integrated in order for the iOS Device storage space to not be clogged up by old Messages threads, which is a common problem among iOS Device users with old backups or dated hardware. The auto-deletion will be optional, so users who never want their threads disappearing have nothing to worry about.
– Notifications:
Notification Center, the translucent drop-down menu for managing alerts may be simplified. In iOS 7, Notification Center includes a "Today" view, "All" Notifications view, and a "Missed" Notifications view. In iOS 8, Apple is considering reducing the panel to solely include the "Today" and "Notifications" views. The new "Notifications" view would combine all notifications with missed notifications, making the overall experience simpler. After acquiring the team behind the app Cue last year, Apple has likely been working on adding additional pertinent information to Notification Center, but it is uncertain if those enhancements will be ready this year for iOS 8.
– TextEdit and Preview:
Apple is developing versions of the Mac operating system's Preview and TextEdit applications that are optimized for the iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. The applications are said to not be designed to actually edit PDFs, images, or text documents.
Instead, the apps are built to serve as tools to view Preview and TextEdit files stored in iCloud by OS X. Apple added iCloud synchronization for Preview and TextEdit with OS X Mountain Lion, but has not yet released iOS counterparts to actually view the synchronized content.
The applications are said to still be early in development, but they are being considered for release later in the year. It is currently uncertain, but still possible, if the new pieces of software will be ready to ship with the upcoming iOS 8.
Instead of using fully functional Preview and TextEdit applications on iOS, users will be encouraged to use the PDF management and editing functionality in the free iBooks applicationfrom the App Store and manage other documents via the iWork suite's word processing application Pages. The apps will also bring improved feature parity between the two Apple operating systems.
– Game Center:
Sources say that Apple is considering removing the Game Center application from iOS and OS X. Instead of having the (little-used) Game Center app, the functionality will solely be found inside in games that have integrated the social gaming service. Just last year, Apple completely redesigned the Game Center app for iOS 7 to remove the green felt and casino theme from the Scott Forstall era. Recently leaked screenshots did, however, show the Game Center icon.
– Voice Memos:
As part of the iOS 7 design revamp, the iPhone's Voice Memos application was completely redesigned. Gone was the fake microphone graphic and added was an interactive waveform. Unfortunately, some users have complained that the redesigned Voice Memos app is difficult to navigate and that editing controls are unclear. With iOS 8, Apple will rectify this problem by improving button placement within the app.
– Performance:
While iOS 7.1 certainly sped up animations and other system functionality, Apple is testing versions of iOS 8 that go even further to improve speed across the operating system. Sources say that Apple is focusing on improving how long it takes photos to be taken with the next-generation iPhone's hardware components in mind.
– CarPlay:
While iOS 7's version of CarPlay exclusively works over the Lightning cable, Apple is testing versions of iOS 8 that can conduct CarPlay (in certain vehicles) over WiFi. The lines up with Volvo saying that its CarPlay implementation will work wirelessly in the future. Of course, Apple has been testing WiFi CarPlay for sometime now with iOS 7, so perhaps the functionality will be pushed back once again. iOS 7.1 first unlocked CarPlay capabilities last month.
– Inter-app communication: Apple is said to be working on and testing functionality that would allow apps from the App Store to better communicate. This is known as an "XPC" service in the developer world. An API is being developed for apps to be able to share data. For example, a future photo editing application could have the ability to push the edited content for upload via the Instagram or Facebook apps. The debut of the API has been in development for the past couple of years, and it had been removed from the launch version of iOS 7 last year for unspecified reasons. With that in mind, it is plausible that Apple could, again, choose to hold back the functionality.
OS X 10.10 – Codenamed Syrah:
OS X 10.10 will be the successor to the current OS X, 10.9 Mavericks. Mavericks focused on power-user features and under-the-hood enhancements to improve hardware performance, battery life, and graphics processing. 10.10, however, will focus on aesthetics. According to sources, Apple Senior VP of Design Jony Ive is leading a "significant" design overhaul for OS X, and the new design will be the operating system's cornerstone new feature (none of the mockups online, like the one above, are a good indicator of what to expect).
The new design will not be as stark as iOS 7, but it will include many of the flat elements and white textures instead of re-creations of life-like elements. The end-to-end redesign is said to be a top priority at Apple right now, with the specific details about the changes being sworn to extreme secrecy. Apple has been testing new features such as Siri and support for iOS AirDrop compatibility, but it's unconfirmed if those enhancements will be ready for 10.10. We'll have more on what to expect from OS X 10.10 soon, so stay tuned.
Hardware Possibilities:
To go with the new operating systems, Apple is likely preparing a few new notable pieces of hardware. On the Mac side, Apple seems to be readying a revamped version of the MacBook Air with a ~12-inch Retina display and thinner/lighter chassis. Apple has announced major new Mac initiatives at WWDC the past couple of years, so perhaps Apple has this new MacBook Air up its sleeves for the 2014 conference. Apple is also working on some lower-cost iMacs and standard MacBook Air/Pro updates, but it's unclear when those are set to debut.
On the iOS side, indications of new hardware are less clear. Apple is currently on an annual life-cycle for updating iOS Devices, so it is fair to assume that the unveilings of the next set of iPhones and iPads will not occur until the fall. With iOS 8's headline feature being health and fitness tracking software, speculation has arisen that Apple could debut its own fitness/health tracking hardware (iWatch) alongside iOS 8. It's unclear if Apple is planning to do so, but given the hiring over the past couple of years, anything is possible.
WWDC 2014 will be held between June 2nd and June 6th at the Moscone West center in San Francisco, California. The week long conference will include labs and special sessions for developers, but it will likely be kicked off on Monday, June 2nd with a keynote address to officially introduce the aforementioned details about iOS 8, OS X 10.10, and potentially new hardware. As the conference's start approaches, new information will certainly come to light, and you can find the latest news about Apple's plans at 9to5Mac. Also stay tuned for live coverage of WWDC and, like we compiled in 2012 and 2013, an updated roundup in the few days before the conference begins.

No Apple TV news? I find that hard to believe. If there is going to be an SDK then WWDC seems like the place it would happen. Especially if they plan to release in the fall, it gives developers a significant amount of time to get ready for release.
I don't think 10.10 will be real. The rest is made by Captain Obvious.
iOS 8: No quick reply? No Siri integration with third-party apps?
If there is still hope for an Aperture 4 or X, this can be announced at WWDC 2014. If there is nothing about that, then we can all conclude that there won't be any major Aperture update.
I've never seen a pro app get announced at WWDC and I don't anticipate that changing this year. If anything it'll happen in the Fall (with the emphasis on IF).
I would love to see new MBPr on WWDC although it looks like it'll be updated later this year. About the OS X I think it would be awesome to get new redesign to get more hand in hand with iOS 8 because I love the design of iOS 7.
They'll probably do something with OS X then do the same with iOS 8 either this or next year. I expect a toned down iOS 7 and a toned up OS X and they'll meet in the middle. At some point.
I mean, I like iOS 7 but some changes in the next few years would be nice rather than 6 years of the same design :/
Does 9to5Mac hate Apple or love Apple? Not sure if this article's hints are all true, but if they are, (you also have snapshots here) — wanted to understand how 9to5Mac gets more Apple leaks (and often more reliable) than any other website by a large margin — do you use some kind of a sophisticated spying network – spread across Apple employees, partners — maybe you do hacking as well??
By doing all these leaks months before the actual news announcement, arent you harming Apple in two significant ways —
(a) Letting competitors know what Apple is doing, so that they can prepare for it much, much earlier?
(b) Reducing the element of surprise from Apple announcements, which make the announcements more mundane to the public?
My guess would be that the actual competitors (mostly Samsung, but also Microsoft, Google, and HTC) don't learn anything from these sights. There is obviously much more money in corporate espionage then sending tips to rumor sights, though the two are not exclusive.
Jay, am not sure I agree. Based on my observations, my belief is that Samsung has very likely introduced features based on Apple rumors.
There are just too many features that Samsung has released — which were similar to Apple's — very close to Apple's release dates. Some of them may be industry trends, so all the players independently may have been working on those — but sometimes it appears as if Samsung did this feature just because it learned much earlier that Apple was working on it.
It may be due to tidbits companies learn from their partners (like Huawei), or forecast, but a good chunk of them could have also been coming from the rumor mill.
I used to love Apple. Because of the UI. But every Mac release after 10.6.8 is less useful and iOS 7 is a visual and usability abortion. Ive needs to be forbidden from ever touching a UI ever again.
At first I didn't like that OSX mockup. The colors and translucency are certainly a little sad. The idea of having pictures appear like in iOS is very clever though. Why should the user have to open iPhoto just to see his pictures ordered by date? The Finder is the best place to do this. He even thought of a button in the toolbar to switch between this view and a classic 'file' view. Same thing with video and music. With a little UI research I'm sure it would be possible to put many basic functions of iPhoto, iMovie and iTunes in the Finder without disrupting it. The finder would then work exactly like Picture, Movie and Music apps on iOS, and with a single button the user would be able to see the files and folders behind the app. The library would be even more integrated into the system.
How about a "delete all" or "mark all" for email? This should have been in there a long time ago! When I have 50-100 emails and have to mark them all one at a time to delete them, that is ridiculous! Android had this years ago. That said, I still prefer the iPhone! But really…
Do you mean for iOS or OS X? It's available for both. Mail for iOS has an explicit option. For Mavericks, just click on an email, press Cmd + A, and then delete, or right click + Mark All
Sounds like "tock" year for iOS. Nothing really new at all UI or UIX wise.
My only wants are to get rid of the muddy, grey notifications pull-down, and changing the multi-tasking behaviour back to the way it was before when it didn't pull you back to the home page all the time. Neither are likely to happen because … iOS design dogma.
At least there might be something new in OS X but judging by how Ive has re-done iOS, I am more expecting lots of confusing changes that actually make things *harder* to use, but that can somehow be justified by a bit of "design-speak" or some other dogma that looks good on paper.
Wow, just, wow. Those are the ugliest piles of rectal discharge I have ever seen. Looks like I'll be sticking with iOS6 and 10.9 for the foreseeable future and not buying any new hardware from Apple until they get over that stupid "flat" theme.
I agree. It's complete shit.
Please Apple MacBook Pro-LTE. The super fast integrated LTE modem will connect you with office, costumers and family at blazing speed. Grapichs are spectacular thanks to AMD Radeon™ HD 8900M series graphics featuring 2GB GDDR5 and the Retina Display. Base RAM start at 4GB all the way up to 32GB.
There's always be hope.
If Apple does not release "Quick Reply" for text messages this year, i dont care any more. I'm going to switch platforms, Windows phone 8.1 is looking good :) This "Quick reply" feature is long overdue.
Am I the only one who finds that mock-up of OSX visually appealing?
Yes. It's appalling, not appealing.
Maybe they'll call it OS 11?? A new OS X after a new iOS! Why not?
Am I the only one who really doesn't care whether the interface, appearance or whatever is like as long as it does what I want? I've got a MacBook Pro running Mavericks & an iMac running 10.6.8 & I wish I hadn't updated the MBP as Finder is slow & I have no need for the extras Mavericks provides. It won't run Appleworks (old but TOTALLY reliable for straightforward productivity) & Pages in its various incarnations is a mixture of compatible & incompatible with different versions. I, and I'm sure many others, do not care for something which is trendy, flashy or whatever; I just want something that does what I tell it to & produces what I want. Is that really too much to ask?
I have the option to run Mavericks, but it's so much worse than 10.6.8. In the office, the latest I will use is 10.8.5. 10.6.8 is still the most useful Mac OS out there. Switch back. You'll be happier.
Oh my gosh, OS X 10.10 idea = pathetically designed concept.
I think Apple should go back to a more spread out release schedule, rather then backloading everything at the end of the year.
These are hideous. I will not use it. If this is the next generation, I'm learning to code for Android now. I still use iOS 6 even though I am paid to create apps for iOS 7. This is just so bad.
please don't flatten OS X D:
iOS 8 useful updates:
1. What about sliding home screen to the right (remember the old search?) to show last accessed apps in a kind of icon circle? 2014 and still difficult to find in a glimpse the 10 to 15 apps you are using in your daily life…and don't tell me to put them in the first home screen, is not the solution, your daily apps can change depending on the day, the hour, the circumstance… and NO double tap home button to show multitasking background does not do the same, because you have only one app per screen…
2. What about service scheduler (wifi, bluetooth, etc?) come on guys this one is really useful…
3. Some improvements have to be done to DND, for example schedule ring for one particular contact to total mute to total sound
4. Notification center should give a glimpse of the current status of your last 15 accessed apps (to add to point one)
ok so is this the keynote where we will see new iPhones discussed or when we say new hardware we mean like new macbooks, imacs, etc?
I'm just going to have to see this thing I guess. Am I conscious of my health? Sure. Do I exercise? Some, yeah. I mean I try to stay active, I try to eat healthy… but do I need, or even want, a health monitor strapped to my wrist all day every day? is "iWatch" going to be for me? I mean my grandma would probably get one day one, but I'm not so sure about myself. I have to imagine Apple would design and build something a guy like me would want, but I'm having a hard time coming up with this product in my head, and I'm a product designer. I'm starting to think we might not even see this thing this year, but the rumors are pretty hot & heavy.
Great, so a bunch of new pre-installed apps to clutter our home screen even more with icons we may never use (newsstand?) and no real added features. This sounds great and also sounds like Samsung – Giving us app bloat instead of making the OS itself better… iOS8 is going to be released with 2 full home screens of pre-installed crap. Give us features that help us get things done please.
-Screw a partnership with Shazam, let any 3rd party app tie into Siri and let Siri be the extensible beast it was designed to be in the first place before you bought out the company who developed it and watered it down.
-Let us set our own default apps if we don't like the stock Apple provided options (which are usually not as good as 3rd party options anyway).
-Let us have options for 3rd party keyboards from companies who's bread and butter is type prediction and grammar/spelling correction and typing efficiency and not just an afterthought. Heck and swipe keyboards are very quick and efficient for goodness sakes, let us have bloody options please.
-Let our apps talk to each other finally. Stop forcing us to make copies all over the bloody place and use crazy URL schemes and workarounds for the simplest of tasks… Like using an RSS reader and sending it to Pocket to read it later. On other platforms you click save/send to pocket and it sends that request directly to Pocket and pocket downloads the information in the background and is ready to go as soon as you open it. On iOS tapping save/send to pocket sends out a request to the pocket URL backend that you'd like this article saved then the URL backend sends a notification to your iOS device which then wakes up the notification agent which then prompts your device to grab the info from the web and then finally brings it back down to your device. All of this could be done very simply and without all the back and forth, not to mention extra data used if apps could just talk to one another.
-Give us a quick reply API so I can quickly reply to any text message, Facebook message, email, any message based correspondence right from the notification itself without me having to leave the app I'm in.
-Let us create shortcuts on our home screen to documents that we are currently working on or to a contact who we contact a lot. Also give us some kind of documents portal that we can see what documents we have and organize them without having to go in and out and in and out of various apps 1 by 1 by1 just to check a couple things
-On iPads let us run 2 apps side by side so I can be reading and taking notes at the same time or in a video conference and taking notes/sending messages relaying the information in the conference at the same time.
-Heck give us something simple as being able to swipe individual notifications away instead of having to axe entire sections
I guess all I'm saying is just allow us to do more with what we have… iOS is certainly capable if Apple would only allow it. Stop saying that iOS is a productivity powerhouse all the while keeping features at bay that would actually allow it to be. Stop saying that with iOS you can get things done and actually implement the features that would make it possible to actually get things done.
Stop adding loads of new crap before actually taking the time to seeing how to make the existing things more useful. It's crazy that this same argument that was made about Microsoft/Windows (adding more and more instead of improving what's there) can even be said about iOS in the first place.
I'm thinking that OS X 10 will largely ditch the chrome-grey color in favor of app-specific colors. One of the things that *was* nice about some of the pre-Mavericks skeuomorphic App designs in OS X (e.g, Notes, Calendar, etc.) was that they appeared different than "normal" windows so you could more easily tell them apart on your desktop (in fact, Reminders still has this "feature"). This would fit very naturally and beautifully with the supposedly upcoming flat Ive re-design and also improve the user experience.
I also believe that Apple is making a MacBook Air with a touch-screen (the ergonomics of using a MacBook Air off-desk would finally make this seen as a revolutionary hardware feature, in typical Apple fashion), and I believe OS X 10 will very deliberately complement this new touch MacBook Air.
I have notice that the ket shortcut to a screen snapshot doesn't work any more shift+command+3 or the +4
Not happy I use this all the time.

Like Julia, the previous reviewer, I find that Patina really shines (pun only partly intended) when layered over Powersurge Eye Kohl (a pencil I never thought I'd want or need!). Patina is such a terrific shade for so many looks and if, like me, you don't generally go in for anything flamoyant, you will find Patina a great shadow to own.

Was this review helpful? Yes No
Patina is one the most interesting and unique shades. It is not quite gold, but not quite brown either. Patina does tend to go on sheer, but it is buildable. If you use a flat shader brush like the MAC 239, then it is more easy to get the product opaque. I have also found that Patina looks phenomenal when layered over MAC Powersurge pencil. The Powersurge brings out more of the complexity of Patina.
Patina lasts all day without creasing on me as long as I use an eyeshadow primer, but that is usually the standard for me with any eyeshadow.

Patina is a light-medium brown with a hint of gray and a golden sheen. This has a frost finish, and it is part of the permanent range. It has good color payoff and a very smooth, soft texture.

Peggy Noonan slams Steve Kroft
Wall Street Journal columnist Peggy Noonan takes a meat cleaver to Steve Kroft, the "60 Minutes" co-host, over his recent interview with President Obama and now-former Sec. of State Hillary Clinton.
"The Kroft interview was a truly scandalous example of the genre," she writes. "It was so soft, so dazzled, so supportive, so embarrassing. And it was that way from the beginning, when Mr. Kroft breathlessly noted, 'The White House granted us 30 minutes.' Granted. Like kings."
Kroft, Obama's go-to interviewer since the early days of his first presidential bid, has been roundly criticized since the interview aired nearly two weeks ago, and even made an effort to defend himself against his critics. Noonan is a little late to the party in that regard, but she comes in swinging harder than her predecessors.
Her full column here.

Neutron scattering is a uniquely powerful probe for measuring the structure and dynamics of condensed matter. As such it is broadly applicable to many important forefront problems in quantum materials. Much of the science conducted by users and ORNL staff emphasizes materials with emergent properties that are manifestly quantum in origin. Some examples of current interests include:
Our scientists also develop and apply new neutron instruments and methods for the benefit of our users and the global scientific community.
This research is supported by the Quantum Condensed Matter Division.
Comprehensive phonon "map" offers direction for engineering new thermoelectric devices
January 08, 2014 — To understand how to design better thermoelectric materials, researchers are using neutron scattering at SNS and HFIR to study how a compound known as AgSbTe2, or silver antimony telluride, is able to effectively prevent heat from propagating through it on the microscopic level.
SNS researchers overcome the freezing sample problem in biostudies
October 01, 2012 — Studying biosamples at supercold temperatures, such as 200 Kelvin (-73.15°C), has been impossible in the past, as the water in such solutions inevitably freezes, and with it, the biosample's dynamic interactions. How to keep biosamples from freezing at very low temperatures has been an ongoing research problem—until now.

Life is a journey. Kiteboarding has taken us to the best spots on the planet and allowed us to get to know the local kiters from all corners of the globe. At the same time we have been able to delve into the technology behind the products that we use on a daily basis and catch a glimpse behind the scenes of the kite industry. There are many interesting characters behind the products and it became clear to us, that CORE is not only made up of a team from the Fehmarn Island but instead is made up of people from the world's beaches. Therefore we became a part of something much bigger.
The idea behind our web-experiment CoreNation is to allow us to share our experiences with you. We want to take you with us on our journeys and share our adventures, experiences and our daily work with you. Enjoy!

A 19th-Century Gift
by AMNH on
Not long ago, a descendant of John William Draper, a celebrated 19th-century naturalist, gave the Museum Draper's collection of fossils from Whitby, England. The set, mostly ammonites, was neatly stowed in a wooden box along with a handwritten list of contents dated 1844 and a price stamp of 28 shillings.
"It's a lovely cabinet of curiosities," says Neil Landman, curator in the Division of Paleontology, who suspects Draper bought the collection whole, perhaps as a gift for his children or because it was "the kind of thing any respectable naturalist would have owned."
Born in England in 1811, Draper emigrated to the U.S. in 1832 and rose to prominence as a chemist, botanist, historian, and pioneering photographer. He served as president of New York University from 1850 to 1873 and was a founder of the NYU Medical School, where he taught chemistry until a year before his death in 1882.
Searching for Deep-Sea Monsters
by AMNH on
Curator John Sparks is blogging weekly about the upcoming exhibition, Creatures of Light, which opens on Saturday, March 31.
Although they look like alien beings right out of a (low-budget) horror film with huge, dagger-like teeth, enormous mouths, and their own lights, many of the deep-sea creatures we feature in the exhibition can be found in the deep, perpetually dark waters right off shore from our major cities, such as the Hudson Canyon near New York City and the San Diego Trough off of southern California. To collect these bizarre creatures, we tow a special net behind a boat far below the surface, an important method of collection not just for fishes, but for all kinds of invertebrates, and one that's allowed us to learn more about the ocean's inhabitants than any other technique. Once we retrieve the net from the depths, we sort and photograph the still-glowing catch on board. These images show some of the extraordinary deep-sea creatures we collected on a recent expedition off of southern California.

The Republic of Trinidad and Tobago is the Caribbean nation the South Carolina Caribbean Culture and Heritage will highlight during its eighth annual Charleston Carifest Caribbean Carnival in June, Caribbean American Heritage Month.
The SCCCH will unveil details of the festival and show the film "Colores del Carnaval Dominicano" during a May 16 reception at the College of Charleston's Avery Research Center.
The reception will be held from 6 to 9 p.m. at Avery, located at 125 Bull St. in Charleston. Refreshments will be served.
The four-day festival begins June 20. Special guests will be the Honorable Dr. Neil Parsan, Trinidad and Tobago's ambassador to the United States, and Dr. Anil Ramnanan, the Trinidad and Tobago consulate general. The emissaries will lead the 2013 Carnival Street Parade from the Charleston Visitor Center down King Street to Brittlebank Park on the Ashley River.
While carnival is considered a time of fun and wild abandonment, Charleston Carifest is unique because it encompasses an educational component along with the frivolity.
Lorna Beck, SCCCH's president, said, "The Caribbean culture of wearing masks, reverence of the spirits and parading are carryovers from the early Africans who lived in the Caribbean and South Carolina.
"Learning the history of the Caribbean carnival celebration will provide a better understanding of the various activities incorporated into this celebration and will allow for better appreciation of it.
"The Caribbean carnival celebration is rooted in both European and African history," she said. "The goal of SCCCH is to create unity while embracing diversity."
Charleston Carifest started in 2006 as a carnival presentation. The festival moved to the park in 2007 during which time organizers focused on the music of the Caribbean. Starting in 2007, the festival has featured St Kitts and Nevis, Barbados, St. Lucia, the Dominican Republic and Jamaica in 2012.
Trinidad was a Spanish colony from 1498 until 1797 while Tobago changed hands 30 times among the British, French, Dutch and Courlanders. The island eventually became a British colony although heavily settled by French colonists. In August 1816, a group of 700 former enslaved people from the Southern United States were rewarded with land in Trinidad, and they settled there.

Secretary Vilsack Announces American Egg Board Appointments
Release No.: 117-13 ¬
Sam Jones-Ellard, (202) 660-2268
WASHINGTON, July 3, 2013 -- Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack has appointed one member and two alternates to the American Egg Board for the remainder of the 2013-2014 term.
Appointed board members and alternates, by region, are:
North Atlantic states John Puglisi, New Jersey, member.
South Atlantic states Alex R. Simpson, North Carolina, alternate member.
Western states Jill I. Benson, California, alternate member.
Research and promotion programs are industry-funded, authorized by Congress, and date back to 1966, when Congress passed the Cotton Research and Promotion Act. Since then, Congress has authorized the establishment of 20 research and promotion boards. They empower farmers and ranchers to leverage their own resources to develop new markets, strengthen existing markets, and conduct important research and promotion activities. AMS provides oversight, paid for by industry assessments, which ensures fiscal responsibility, program efficiency and fair treatment of participating stakeholders.
Composed of 18 members and 18 alternates representing six regions, the board administers an egg research and promotion program authorized by the Egg Research and Consumer Information Act of 1974. Terms on the board are staggered so that half of the membership is appointed each year in order to provide continuity in policy. The Secretary of Agriculture selects appointees from egg producers nominated by organizations representing the egg industry.

QuoteBut what if the word serpent wasn't in the Bible. Say both the serpent and the hamster are called "animal" in Hebrew. Is a translator allowed to translate it as dragon/hamster?My question for you would be: Is the original Hebrew that way?
But what if the word serpent wasn't in the Bible. Say both the serpent and the hamster are called "animal" in Hebrew. Is a translator allowed to translate it as dragon/hamster?
QuoteSame for yom. Is a translator allowed to translate it as day instead of "age" "period" or something similar?As long as the translation is correct. Time = time, so long as it is time.
Same for yom. Is a translator allowed to translate it as day instead of "age" "period" or something similar?
It was just an example Lefein. Not a claim.
I don't agree with that. HS inspired things a certain way. Do we know better than HS? Jesus was in the grave for 3 months and 3 minutes. That's a correct translation because it's also time?For me it's simple. If HS inspired 'period' then the translation must be 'period'. Of course I have no problem with lenghty commentaries explaining why that 'period' in that context has to mean a 24 hour day.
[#1]Have creationists ever considered their interpretation of scripture is inaccurate? [#2] Do you really believe man walked with the dinosaurs? [#3] Don't you think a few of those dinosaurs would have had a few human bones where their stomachs should be?
SECOND --- There has to be an explanation that aligns the evidence which "seems" representative of a massive amount of TIME, with the Biblical account of time being, 6000 years... For the WORD of God is the TRUTH (above ANY scientific THEORY or CONJECTURE)... and the TRUTH notes that (approx) 6000yrs has taken place in time, since Adam's creation on the 6th "day"...
THIRD --- Science bases its conjectures (theories, hypotheses), upon proximity to ITSELF, which in the end, IS the problem concerning their determinations of the Earth and its "AGE". IOW, because there appears discrepancies such as strata layers in the earth, dinosaurs, etc... that they use to determine that the stated time frames noted in the HOLY WORD of GOD, are not possibly correct... and therein lies the fault in their FINITE determination of the INFINITE source of the Earth and Universe which they observe. There IS an explanation which brings these (science's view of Millions of years VS 6000 years), but they will not consider it.
Also, the WORD notes that DEATH entered (into the CREATION) by Adam's indescretion -- Rom 5:12 -- so prior to Adam's sin... death had no portion within the Creation, having NOT ENTERED.This includes the "evidences" such as Dinosaurs which had LIVED, and DIED... and which "evidences" are YET present IN the CREATION, as we speak.
The "Creation" is the "beginning" of the REVELATION of the WORD which was (is, will be) within Him... All that proceeds from Him, has ALWAYS been part of Him, as He does NOT CHANGE! The word "created" noted in Gen 1:1 can and DOES mean DISPATCHED... The "Earth" was (is, will be) ETERNALLY present in the Heart of YHVH... but its PHYSICAL presence was yet to be manifest by the Revelation of the WORD within YHVH, which is the maker of ALL things -- John 1:3 -- Col 1:16 -- and therefore, nothing PHYSICAL (including "dinosaurs" which were once living PHYSICAL entities), had yet to "BE".The book of the REVEALING of the WORD of YHVH (Revelation of JESUS CHRIST), upon IT's "REVEALING" ...notes in concluding that "revelation" that DEATH passes away... and shall no longer be an existent thing...The WORD does NOT CHANGE -- Heb 13:8 -- James 1:17 -- neither does YHVH -- Mal 3:6... so WHY would DEATH --- of the "DINOSAURS" and other things in a "prior creation" which had to have been produced by the WORD as well (for the WORD is the maker of ALL THINGS that are "made"), ...have existed prior to THIS EARTH, and evidence of their DEATH, survived to be EXISTENT in "this creation" as well? Is God revisiting DEATH which preceeded in a prior creation? If so, WHY? What REASON exists that He did not "do away" with it in THAT "creation"? Why let another (this) Creation effort fall to DEATH as well? If the WORD of GOD is LIFE (which it IS) -- John 14:6 -- which also PUTS AWAY DEATH in IT's "revelation" and conclusion -- Rev 21:4 -- Why was it [death] allowed to survive a previous "creation" and extend into this one?REASON dictates that LIFE conquered DEATH in and ON, this Earth... If the WORD declares that DEATH shall PASS AWAY permanently... why was it "re-allowed" to CONTINUE to exist from a "prior" creation? That makes absolutely NO SENSE to me. God is REVEALING His WORD in and on THIS Earth... and CHRIST died ONCE (not twice) for ALL. -- Heb 9:26 -- 10:10The TRUTH is that the WORD of God makes no such statement (of the existence of a "prior creation")... it is nothing but an "imagination", just as is ...the "Big Bang".
No matter who argues the point (from either spiritual or scientific viewpoints)... the FACT remains that GOD's WORD (which notes a 6000 year time frame... is the TRUTH... and somehow, the "ANCIENT evidence" fits within that time frame.
[#1]Have creationists ever considered their interpretation of scripture is inaccurate?
[#3] Don't you think a few of those dinosaurs would have had a few human bones where their stomachs should be?
[#2] Do you really believe man walked with the dinosaurs?
I would only suggest out of loving concern, that he put his posts in a more essay-like format. The colours, and the "all caps", and emote stuff throughout overwhelms it for me...Like make up, those things should "enhance" the beauty of the sentence, rather than replace it.Will, from a brother to another; essay form please? And if you have alot of text, resizing it to be smaller would be helpful too. Just for my convenience atleast, but certainly I only ask out of suggestion, not out of command.I too have lengthy "odd" posts that I should probably figure out how to deal with...Peace to you.
I believe what you post is all well and good. What I will say, and I am adamant, you can have all your "theologic chest thumping, stubborn dogmatic positions and guys who are unwilling to concede on points. This isn't about being right."Its about the truth and not opinons on what one considers to be what the Bible says. D.L. Moody said, "Its what the Bible teaches; not what the Bible says."Moody was a damnation speaker, but he got that part right, the Bible says alot of things and all that the Bible says can be construed to be what ever one wants it to be. Be be assured, the Bible teaches and the Teacher is the Holy Spirit and that is the bread and the wine, that is where one will grow in Grace and in Spirit into the full stature of a son.
No absolutly none at all. "What the Bible says seems to be different to many people who claim to have been lead by the Holy Spirit. Some of these same people butt heads and accuse each other of all sorts of wrongs." ShawnI really believe that those battles come from just that "what the Bible says." What the Bible says is so chuck full of man's understanding and the doctrines he has created to suit his needs, it keeps man on the outside of what The Lord is doing. I dont know when, but somewhere along the way[and I believe that it is in God's plan and purpose] He has put this maze of spiritual understanding in "the race for the high calling," and we all see through this glass darkly 1Co 13:12 for we see now through a mirror obscurely, and then face to face; now I know in part, and then I shall fully know, as also I was known; And we all know in part, and it is love, faith, and hope that is the needle, thread, and cloth that will bring us together as one.
Honestly, Willie your posts are exhausting and lengthy.
I have no desire to debate with you for various reasons but one is your aggessive debating style.
The second is because you include too much information in your posts. Be concise, and civil and you will get a proper response.
I would only suggest out of loving concern, that he put his posts in a more essay-like format. The colours, and the "all caps", and emote stuff throughout overwhelms it for me...
The WORD notes the age of the Earth to be [approximately] 6K years...
WillieIf that is your style then so be it. I just won't read your posts...just like I didn't read that one.
Quote from: willieHThe WORD notes the age of the Earth to be [approximately] 6K years... The Bible doesn't actually say that, does it?
The WORD notes the age of the Earth to be [approximately] 6K years...
It does not STATE that the Creation is 6K years... however this APPROXIMATE time total, is NOTED in the WORD, and is demonstratable via the reverse counting of timeframes of Historical events as noted in the WORD... So it IS indicated chronologically reverse from the present to the day of Creation.
12 Sin entered the world because one man sinned. And death came because of sin. Everyone sinned, so death came to all people. 13 Before the law was given, sin was in the world. But sin is not judged when there is no law.--Rom 5This is not such an obvious verse. What is the time of 'before the law was given.'? Wasn't Adam the first man to whom the law was given?17but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die."--Gen 2So, Adam is the first man who had language [as far as we know] and who, therefore, could receive the law [the Word of God].So when is the time before the law was given? Another era?--13for sin indeed was in the world before the law was given, but sin is not counted where there is no law.--Rom 5The first thing God does after he places Adam in the garden is give him the law. But, this verse refers to a time before that when there was sin in the world but no law, so the sin was not counted.
