To celebrate the release of their API, Spotify sponsored a Hack-a-thon at SPiN Ping Pong Club in New York City from Friday February 24 until Sunday February 26. Spotify was joined by big brands like Doritos, CW, McDonald's, Showtime, State Farm and Mountain Dew. Technology companies sponsoring the event included Facebook, Twilio, FourSquare, The Echo Nest and of course, GoGrid. GoGrid provided all the cloud servers for the event to support the developers as they created brand new apps using the Spotify API in conjunction with other API like Facebook's Open Graph. GoGrid's manager of cloud ecosystem, Paul Lancaster and I were on-hand to meet with developers and provide support for the event.
50 CentOS x64 cloud servers were provisioned to the hackers by GoGrid to build their applications free of charge with root level access for maximum flexibility. Hundreds of hackers showed up to build the next great apps and were treated to live performances by Blood Orange and MNDR. While hack-a-thons tend to have attrition over time, hackers stayed throughout the night and most for the entire weekend.
There were roughly 30 projects worked on during the weekend which ranged from an app called Museik (UI shown above) that extracts content from the internet related to the release date of a song on Spotify to a project called Orbidal by the students of the VCU Brandcenter that gathers the collective feelings of your Facebook feed and creates a playlist based on that mood on Spotify.

Survey says consumers prefer phones with bigger screens - should the next iPhone be 4 inches?
Strategy Analytics has just wrapped up a survey of smartphone owners in the U.S. and U.K. which concluded that 90% wanted a phone with a bigger display. The iPhone's current 3.5-inch screen seems downright diminutive compared to the 4-inch monsters that we've seen in the Android world for the last year or so, nevermind the crazy 5-inch devices like the Samsung Galaxy Note.
Should surveys like this be a hint to Apple that their next phone should by a little bit bigger, at least, say, 3.7 inches? Or are you guys happy with the current size of the iPhone display?

Survey says consumers prefer phones with bigger screens - should the next iPhone be 4 inches?
I really think that if the screen is 4" and the radio
Is lte, android could be in trouble. Not that ndroid would die, but from my view as an android user, I would likely switch....the screen size and lte are what keep me android......although PICS would be awesome on a phone with good battery life.
Although I regretted it, I chose Android for my last phone (upgraded in November). I chose Android simply based on the fact that I could get 4G and the larger screen. I really wanted the iPhone but I feared the screen would be to small. I wish I would have bought the iPhone instead because now i'm stuck supporting 2 eco systems and I can't share any of my app data between my phone and my iPad. I hadn't really thought of that aspect at the time. A 4in iPhone would have guaranteed that I didn't go android.
given that a lot of smartphones have larger screens, asking them that question is like asking "did you wish your screen was smaller?" no one will say "yes."
Better is to ask iPhone users if they would prefer larger screens.
Agree 100% i like the size as it is. If I need a bigger display I use my iPad
Why does it need it be bigger, someone walked past me the other day using what looked something like a tablet. On closer inspection is was an android run mobile. It was the most stupid thing I've ever seen.
Don't speak for everyone unless you are everyone. I hate when people do that.
I don't want a bigger iPhone screen, and actually would like a smaller one.
I just switched to a Nokia N8, and am enjoying it.
Can my iPhone 4S do way more than the Nokia?
Does it do enough to where I a) do not need to carry my iPhone and b) do not regret changing?
Yes and yes.
You know those people who aren't using the iPhone? I bet that some of them wish that the screen were smaller. But you wouldn't know that, because you already made their vote for them without asking.
Any phone with a screen larger than 4" just flat out looks stupid, not to mention it won't fit in your pocket either. If Apple does make a larger screened iPhone, it won't go beyond 4 inches. The few people that don't mind looking like a total dork holding a huge device up to their ear can always go for something from Samsung. They've got the dork market covered.
What kind of panta are you wearing that wont fit a four inch phone? My wifes Droid Incredible 2 has a four inch screen and its hardly bigger than an iphone.
Honestly, your comment was just plain stupid.
However, i feel Apple can introduce a larger screen without making the frame of the device much bigger. The top bezel is actually ridiculously large. They could and should break the mold and step it up half and inch.
Seriously, how often is your phone up against your face? I think the majority of us who use our device to talk frequently have some sort of headset at this point. I like the big screen on my Android because I can talk on the phone with my headset & still use the phone while on the call to browse, play or text/email as well - otherwise that big boy just hangs out in my pocket & I do everything hands free with Vlingo.
Actually I've been thinking about this recently - I realised I hardly ever use my iPhone as a phone, so something that would be better all round for web broswing, pictures, video and other Apps would be great, even if that means sacrificing a little portability. I'm not sure I would carry a 5in device around all day, but a 4-4.5in device would be welcome from the next iPhone.
I love my GSII for this reason. Widgets work really well too.
LOL No. No man-purses allowed.
Bring back the bag phones! Just kidding. To me anything over 4" is overkill and not portable enough. I personally like the current iPhone just the way it is. 3.7 would be ok, but if they could make the screen bigger by going edge to edge of the phone, while keeping the same dimensions of the phone overall I would not complain.
I'd like to see this survey. I can't for the life of me figure out WHY on earth you need anything bigger than what the iPhones current screen size is. In fact, the massive screen sizes on those Droids ruled most of them out of the running for me when i was selecting a new phone from the get go.
I'm no luddite either - I enjoy technology as much as anyone, but I will never see the need for these ridiculous sized screens on a phone. If I wanted to lug around a 46" LCD to strap to my face, I would.
Leave it as is. Let the other idiots play into the US' preoccupation with size. Hummer is doing really well following that strategy. Wait - what's that? They are no longer in business? Hmmm. Maybe bigger ISN'T better.
I'd like to see the survey too, but it costs two grand. :-/ http://www.strategyanalytics.com/default.aspx?mod=reportabstractviewer&a...
I really like the overall size of the iPhone. Fits nice in the hand and usable with one hand. But I would love it more if they just increased the entire face to be a screen? Eliminate the physical home button, and put ear speaker in top or very close to top edge. Resolution could stay the same, and most apps could keep same proportions, just use extra space on photo or web apps that having more space helps. But 95% of the apps do not need to get bigger? Just maps, photo, webpage viewer apps would benefit from bigger screeen. IMO.
I love the current 3.5" screen. I think it's perfect for one-handed use, and really, if you need anything bigger you should just use a tablet or a laptop. I wouldn't mind if Apple decided to go with a 4" screen, but anything past 4" I think is just silly. I think also from a design standpoint, the current 3.5" look is very pleasing to the eye on the front face of the iPhone, because of the equal distance from the top and bottom edge, incorporating the home button and speaker. I think one of the things that Apple takes into consideration, more so than other phone makers, is the over design of the device. Maybe they don't want the screen to overshadow the whole front of the device, so maybe they want to keep the bezel. I think it looks nice.
I don't really know how I feel about it to be quite honest. I had a 4" Android phone for a while and the screen size was nice but difficult for me to operate with 1 hand. I can pretty easily navigate my 4S with my thumb in one hand and I really don't have any issue with the 3.5 inch screen not being large enough for me.
Since I picked up my iPad2 a year ago I think my phone has transformed into almost a pure communication tool (phone, sms, social networks, email) and a camera. I rarely consume much content on my iPhone unless I'm bored out of my skull on a train or something. My iPad has taken it's place as my main browsing/reading/gaming device. That said, I don't think it'd bother me one bit if the iPhone 5 was still 3.5".
We don't need yet another phablet out there! Please, keep the iPhone pocket sized! I see so many people show off their massive Android phablet, but then I laugh as they jam it into their pockets, half of the phablet sticking out. With the retina display, the iPhone looks better than the Android phablets anyway.
Bigger screen doesn't mean more screen real-estate. Samsung's marketing is really playing the market confusion strategy on purpose. It's the number of PIXELS not SIZE that determines how much you can see on the screen at one time. The iphone already displays more than anyone because it has the most pixels (those 'true HD' phone ads are so annoying). The only reason why you would need a bigger screen is to get bigger UI elements and allow for larger text. My vision is good enough to see the small text on my phone thank you and so is 90% of the iphone's target demographic. It really irks me how the android ads have convinced people they need to buy garbage. It demeaning that they think that we don't know what features are actually better (lte over battery life, size over real estate)
yes, a larger phone will technically fit in a typical pants pocket ..
.. but no, i don't want to feel like i'm sitting on a plate.
going up to 4" would probably be fine though, especially if the bezel was cut down a little bit.
the niche i'd like to see apple fill is actually a smaller iPad. the current one is perfect as a casual laptop replacement but is a little too big and conspicuous to be purse or briefcase-able. something mid-way between the iPhone and iPad, using iPad iOS and pixel resolution would be perfect for that though it would require next generation pixel density to accomplish that elegantly.
something Star Trek PADD sized, and clearly not a phone.
I take it by "cute girl" you mean "Oompa Loompa"?
"Oompa Loompa?" LOL Hardly.
anything bigger might block my veiw of the road, Plus I don't want to have to use two hands while texting as one needs to be on the wheel, or the book Im reading.
No, one of those hands needs to be shoveling food into your mouth, then shaving, in addition to holding the map, and the other hand should be alternating between holding your book, on the steering wheel, shifting gears and flipping off the other drivers who pass you and yell or gawk at you for swerving into their lane. That's the only way to drive. You must be a bad driver if that's all you can do while driving. ;-P
Exactly. Glad to see I'm not the only one who noticed.
I am a huge apple fan (iMac, iPods, iPhone, and iPad2) but I actually just switched from an iPhone 4 to a Motorola RAZR partially due to a need for larger screen size. This is my first Android device, and while its not as nice as the iPhone, the form suits my needs.
Like Matt above said, I realized that I dont use my cell phone as a phone very much, but rather to surf the web, as navigation, and to take pictures, all of which benefit from a larger screen. While I used to agree with others about there being "no need for anything larger than an iPhone", I now disagree. It's really nice having a larger screen, especially when viewing documents or using it as a GPS (As a matter of fact, now I wish I could get a Galaxy Note but I am on Verizon).
And for those that think that the extra 1/2"-3/4" is going to make it unpocketable: I seriously doubt you would have any problem carrying the Droid RAZR with its "huge" (lol)4.3 inch screen... its actually less noticeable than my iPhone was in my front pocket.
I am NOT and Android fanboy. I actually prefer Apple products and iOS, but there IS a desire for other form factors - the 3.5" isn't for everyone.
This. 4" to 4.5" (and even 4.7") screens are actually very pocketable, as long as the phone is designed right (not too thick).
I don't want a bigger phone.
The iPhone is just about the maximum I want in a size of phone.
If they can make a bigger screen but not a bigger phone then yeah; but I don't want a tablet-phone.
There are already large phones being made with Android; let them have that market.
I think the survey is BS.
Another targeted market survey, with misleading questions, and hammed "calculations".
Make the 4" as another product line and I'll grantee you it'll outsell the 3.5 variants.
Helly yeah the iPhone needs a 4 inch screen. The size of the Galaxy Note is too big, but the iPhone's screen is too small, especially with companies like HTC releasing phones with 4.3 inch 720p displays. Apple can hire Samsung/LG/Sharp or whoever it will turn to for the iPhone 6 to do better! LOL!
Apple won't enlarge the screen much, if at all, for software and marketing reasons. Apps do not handle odd size screens, therefore they would have to keep the retina screen number of dots on any bigger screen, making it 'less retina' than before. That would be a marketing problem if the difference was large.
I've had phones up to 4.5 inches. I also own an Iphone 4, and although we all have our own opinions, but I think that obviously, the internet browser experience, video game, and video experience would be enhanced with at least a slightly larger screen. With that being said, to appease those that prefer the huge 4.3-.5' screens from Android, and those that like the smaller screen of the Iphone, I think that a 4" screen would be a good compromise to make it a little larger, but not make it a behemoth.
I came from a 4.3" screen to the iPhone 4S. An iPhone with a 4" screen would rock. An iPhone with a 5" screen would squeeze the throat of Android and just about kill off RIM and Nokia, in my opinion. There have been plenty of times I'd wished the iPhone had a bigger screen, but my iPad 2 takes care of that need until whatever iPhone arrives in 2013.
What far too many people fail to realize is that different people come in different sizes. I have very large hands. I had an iPhone 3G and liked the screen size and thickness compared to what was available at that time. I switched to an HTC Incredible and could not bear the thinness of the device or the narrowness of the screen when in portrait mode. My hands are far too big for that, so it was essentially unusable. Then I moved to a Droid X, which I hated as a phone, but the screen size actually felt right for the first time. I later went back for the iPhone 4 because I have always preferred the Apple ecosystem, only to find the screen now seems too small and the phone way too thin. (One thing I should also mention is that I put all my devices in an OtterBox Defender case whenever available, which adds some bulk, but still not enough.) I know I'm in the minority on this, but I would love it if Apple brought a 4" or 4.3" screen, and added a little thickness to the device so I feel like I'm actually holding onto something, and so I won't feel like I'm accidentally going to crush it. I'd be willing to sacrifice a little screen resolution for a larger screen. As has been previously stated, browsing, social networking, and gaming would all benefit from a larger screen. And I really don't think anyone who wears adult sized clothes should have any problems fitting a 4.3" phone in their pocket.
Exactly. It's a matter of personal preference. I have big hands too and would welcome a 4" screen on the next iPhone. No single screen size is ever going to be THE perfect size for everyone. Tho I think 4 inches would be pretty close to an ideal size that most if not all people would be happy with, as long as the overall dimensions of the iPhone remain more or less the same. I'd be happy with an iPhone the exact same dimensions as the current 4S, but with a 4-inch screen (less bezel around the screen). That way it could still fit into existing docks and cases. I'd hate to leave iOS, as it has worked pretty well for me thus far, but if the next iPhone doesn't get at least a 4" screen, I simply won't be upgrading to it. I'd just get a Nokia Lumia 900 or something similar.
I prefer the current size. And yes, I've used smartphones with larger screens. Don't mess with the perfect size (iPhone 4S sales tell the story!). And don't try to fit a larger screen on the current size because that will kill the bezel which is VERY important for gaming in landscape mode!! Apple has all these variables factored in! DON'T pretend that you know better. You don't! Let Android play bigger is better. And let Apple play better is better! nuff said. done.
I switched from a Droid Incredible 2 with a 4" screen size. I love the iPhone but miss the bigger screen. They could easily upgrade the screen size, without upgrading the phone size. My DInc2 was nearly the same hardware size as the iPhone. I don't want a bigger phone, just a bigger screen, which is easily attainable.
Lol, you fanboys will be saying the size is the best thing ever if they change it.
Anywho. coming from a Galaxy S I think a 4'' is the best size. I've also used an EVO. A bit too big for practical purposes. I think they should have a 3.9-4.1 screen size on the new iPhone. My 4S is a bit small for me.

Charleston Southern University's Department of Religion will transition to a School of Christian Studies beginning June 1.
The school announced the change last week.
"The transition to a School of Christian Studies is rooted in our desire to reflect more accurately not only what we teach but also why we teach," explained Dr. Michael L. Bryant, Dean of the new school. "We will seek to interact in meaningful ways with non-Christian philosophies and religions through critical instruction and field trips.
"Nevertheless, the content of our classes will focus more specifically on the Christian faith. We will teach with the aim of preparing students to serve Christ in many different ministry capacities, both traditional and non-traditional. Furthermore, we will seek to equip them to evaluate their surroundings from a Christian worldview."
"The expansion of our Religion Department to the School of Religious Studies goes hand in hand with the launching of our Center for Christian Leadership," said CSU president Dr. Jairy C. Hunter. "These two initiatives will significantly enhance the university's vision of integrating faith in learning, leading and serving."
The new School of Christian Studies will offer a BA in Christian Studies and a BA in Student Ministry (formerly Youth Ministry).
In addition, to encourage the study of Hebrew and Greek, the school will offer a BA in Christian Studies with an Emphasis in Biblical Languages. Students will also have the opportunity to choose between several new minors, a minor in Christian Worldview and Apologetics and a Minor in Missions and Church Planting.
The minor in Christian Worldview and Apologetics will equip students to defend the Christian worldview more effectively. The minor in Missions and Church Planting will train students both academically and practically to advance the gospel throughout the world.
All faculty members in the School of Christian Studies will teach in the Baptist tradition and affirm important expressions of belief such as the Baptist Faith and Message 2000 and the Chicago Statement of Biblical Inerrancy. "Along with a firm commitment to important affirmations of the Christian faith, we will seek to be intentional in discipling our students that they may in turn disciple others," remarks Bryant.
For more information about Charleston Southern University's School of Christian Studies or to schedule a meeting with a Christian Studies faculty member, contact Mrs. Tina Hartley at email@example.com.

The deals made at this year's trade deadline featured about as much star power as this year's dunk contest.
Maybe less.
After weeks of guessing where big names like Paul Pierce, Dwight Howard, Rajon Rondo, Pau Gasol, Josh Smith, and Kevin Garnett might land … of imagining new homes for quality pros like Paul Millsap and Al Jefferson … the deadline came and went with an absolute whimper.
Let's break 'em down.
Kings traded Thomas Robinson, Francisco Garcia, and Tyler Honeycutt to Houston for Patrick Patterson, Cole Aldrich, and Toney Douglas
Sure, the Kings got a floor-spacing four that runs the floor well in Patterson, and he probably makes more sense in a frontcourt with DeMarcus Cousins than a low-post, back-to-the-basket guy like Thomas Robinson. But let's be real … this trade saves the Kings a couple million dollars in the short term, and by the time Robinson starts making them look stupid for giving up on the 5th overall pick in last year's draft, Joe and Gavin Maloof and Geoff Petrie will be long gone.
Pick up Patterson (25% owned) if you feel comfortable assuming the Kings will use a rotation that makes any sense at all.

Drug Compare
Generic: apap/caffeine/dihydrocodeine
It is used to treat moderate to severe pain
What should I watch for while using this medicine?Tell your doctor or health care professional if your pain does not go away, if it gets worse, or if you have new or a different type of pain. You may develop tolerance to the medicine. Tolerance means that you will need a higher dose of the medicine for pain relief. Tolerance is normal and is expected if you take the medicine for a long time.
Do not suddenly stop taking it because you may develop a severe reaction. Your body becomes used to the medicine. This does NOT mean you are addicted. Addiction is a behavior related to getting and using a drug for a non- medical reason. If you have pain, you have a medical reason to take pain medicine. Your doctor will tell you how much medicine to take. If your doctor wants you to stop the medicine, the dose will be slowly lowered over time to avoid any side effects.
You may get drowsy or dizzy. Do not drive, use machinery, or do anything that needs mental alertness until you know how this medicine affects you. Do not stand or sit up quickly, especially if you are an older patient. This reduces the risk of dizzy or fainting spells. Alcohol may interfere with the effect of this medicine. Avoid alcoholic drinks.
There are different types of narcotic medicines (opiates) for pain. If you take more than one type at the same time, you may have more side effects. Give your health care provider a list of all medicines you use. Your doctor will tell you how much medicine to take. Do not take more medicine than directed. Call emergency for help if you have problems breathing.
The medicine will cause constipation. Try to have a bowel movement at least every 2 to 3 days. If you do not have a bowel movement for 3 days, call your doctor or health care professional.
Many non- prescription medicines contain acetaminophen as an ingredient. Always read the labels carefully to avoid taking an accidental overdose, which can be dangerous.

Step 1: Ingredients
- ripe tomatoes
- fresh mozzarella (this is the soft stuff in liquid - not the hard kind you put on pizza)
- Italian bread or a baguette
- fresh basil
- olive oil
- balsamic vinegar
- salt and pepper
Step 2: Slice the Tomatoes and the Mozzarella, and Chiffonade the Basil
Having a sharp knife really helps cut through a soft ripe tomato. If you push too hard you will crush it, so be careful.
I like to cut basil in a chiffonade - which is a fancy way of creating thing uniform strips out of a bunch of leaves like basil, spinach or lettuce. See my instructable on How to Chiffonade for detailed instructions.
But by all means, cut, rip, or chop the basil up any way you like.
Step 3: Assemble the Sandwich
I like to lay the tomato down first in a cascade manner where the top of each tomato rests on the bottom of the one above it. I this ensures total tomato coverage and allows me to stack a few more slices than if I just laid them down flat on the bread.
On top of the tomato goes the mozzarella cheese. Again, I like to use a cascading effect to maximize my cheese to area ratio.
After the cheese comes the basil. I like to add in a pretty liberal amount, so what is pictured below might be a bit more than you might like on your sandwich.
Second day having this....DELICIOUS!

Arizona Wildcats
Jay Bilas: 'Arizona's got all the pieces necessary to make a run'
ESPN NCAA basketball analyst Jay Bilas feels the Arizona Wildcats are the best team in the Pac-12.
The Wildcats have started the season with nine straight wins, including a come-from-behind victory over then-No. 5 Florida.
Bilas said that was the type of win where a team grows up a little bit because they rallied late after trailing for basically the entire game.
"To hang in there and find a way to win, that's the sign of a good team, and Arizona's a really good team that is going to keep getting better and have a chance at the end of the year to do something special in a year where there's probably not a great team out there," Bilas told Arizona Sports 620's Burns and Gambo Wednesday.
Indeed the Wildcats, who are ranked fourth in the Associated Press Poll and fifth in the USA Today Coaches Poll, are looked at as one of the country's better teams. They appear to have the requisite size and depth to make a deep NCAA Tournament run, but what may set them apart is the leadership they receive from seniors like Mark Lyons, Solomon Hill and Kevin Parrom.
"I think Arizona's got all the pieces necessary to make a run later on in the season," Bilas said. "Looking nationally with the teams they're going to have to play and compete against once you get to the NCAA Tournament, I think this is one of those years where nobody's great and if you are healthy and playing well at the end of the year you're going to have a chance."
Bilas said this season reminds him of 2010, when "there just wasn't a great team out there."
If that's the case, a deep and talented team like Arizona -- which still has plenty of room to improve -- could find itself in the conversation when people are discussing Final Four contenders.

The Association of Chief Police Officers distinguishes between a hate incident and a hate crime. A hate incident is:
"Any incident, which may or may not constitute a criminal offence, which is perceived by the victim or any other person, as being motivated by prejudice or hate."
Whilst a hate crime is defined specifically as:
"Any hate incident, which constitutes a criminal offence, perceived by the victim or any other person, as being motivated by prejudice or hate."
ACPO defines a homophobic hate incident as:
"Any incident which is perceived to be homophobic by the victim or any other person."
This definition is similar to the definition of other forms of hate incident such as race hate incidents and religious hate incidents. Under these definitions a person does not have to be lesbian, gay or bisexual to be the victim of a homophobic hate incident, nor does the victim of a hate incident have to view it as homophobic for it to be considered a homophobic hate incident by the police.
Domestic violence can be considered a hate crime and some police forces have joint domestic violence and hate crime units.
Section 146 of the Criminal Justice Act 2003 came into effect in April 2005, empowering courts to impose tougher sentences for offences motivated or aggravated by the victim's sexual orientation in England and Wales.
However, in the eyes of the law different types of hate crime are viewed differently. For example, perpetrators of racially and religiously motivated hate crimes can be charged by the police with specific offences such as racially or religiously aggravated harassment or assault.
Perpetrators of homophobic hate crimes meanwhile cannot be charged with a specific offence of homophobically motivated harassment for example. Instead perpetrators of homophobic hate crimes would be charged with existing offences, such as assault, and the homophobic motivation would be taken into account during sentencing.
If an offence is believed to have been motivated by hostility or prejudice based on sexual orientation (actual or perceived) the judge is required to:
The Criminal Justice Act 2003 does not specify the amount by which sentences should be increased where disability or sexual orientation are aggravating factors. This will be specified in further secondary legislation.

The Ashley Ridge boys basketball team banked a weighty win Tuesday.
The Swamp Foxes earned a 70-56 victory over Wando at The Ridge to improve to 6-2 on the season. Wando dropped to 8-4 with the non-region loss.
Any time you come away with a win over a program as disciplined and well coached as Wando thats a big win, Ashley Ridge coach Brian Welch said. Our guys did a great job of playing tough all night an played our way loose, free, fast and aggressive. It was a good team win with so many people giving big contributions to help make it happen. I think this groups biggest strength is the way they play for each other.
In his first game returning to the team after a week of Shrine Bowl activities, senior Romelo Doctor led the Swamp Fox charge by scoring a game-high 25 points. Fellow senior Fred Weeks added 15 points to the Ashley Ridge cause and five other members of the team got in on the scoring.
Wando was led by Taylor Magenski, who finished with 10 points. Richie Alston added nine points for the Warriors.
Welch said he is hoping the victory is something the Swamp Foxes can build on.
When a group plays as hard as they can as smart as they can every single second for one another you have a chance to win every night, he said. Im proud of my guys and now we just have to make sure we are getting better each day as we approach Christmas and our region schedule. Hopefully we will be playing our best basketball at the end of the year.
The Ashley Ridge girls got off to a slow start and fell 38-26 to Wando. The Lady Swamp Foxes dropped to 6-2 on the season while the Lady Warriors improved to 6-2.
Wando outscored Ashley Ridge 10-2 in both the first and third periods. The other two periods were tight and the Lady Swamp Foxes even bested Wando 10-8 in the fourth but the damage was done.
Ashley Ridges Shelby Daly led all scorers with 13 points. Kearsten Duvernay led Wando with 12.
Wando will host the Ashley Ridge teams for rematches Jan. 4. On Jan. 8, Ashley Ridge opens region play when it hosts Bluffton.

I noticed a new option in my AdSense account: AdSense for feeds, a program that displays contextual and placement-targeted ads in FeedBurner feeds. FeedBurner announced in May that AdSense for Feeds will be available to a small number of publishers and now it seems that everyone can use it.
FeedBurner has recently closed FAN, its advertising network. "No new applications for FAN publishers are being accepted and we expect the broad variety of options provided through AdSense (including the new AdSense for Feeds product, powered with FeedBurner feeds) will give publishers valuable new revenue-earning potential," says a FeedBurner/Google employee.
The new AdSense for Feeds option lets you create a new ad unit that has a format automatically selected from 468x60 and 300x250. "Generally, the 300x250 size will display when there's more content and when your feed is being viewed in a device with a larger display," explains Google. You can choose if you want image ads, the ad frequency, the position (top or bottom of the post), the colors and a channel that tracks the ad performance.
For the moment, there's no connection between your AdSense account and the FeedBurner account, so Google automatically adds the FeedBurner service to your AdSense account. Unfortunately, your feeds are still connected to the old FeedBurner account and you need to migrate them first. The migration process is manual: just send an email at firstname.lastname@example.com and mention your FeedBurner username and the AdSense account email address.
From AdSense, you can easily burn a new feed by entering the address of your blog and selecting some tracking options. The feeds can be managed at the new FeedBurner site, but there's no visible change other than the integration with Google Accounts and the new URLs for feeds: http://feedproxy.google.com/NAME.
Here's an ad from a feed of a FeedBurner/Google employee:
I doubt that these ads are an effective way to monetize feeds, since people use feed readers to get timely updates from a lot of sites and spend less time for each item. Besides, feed readers are mostly used by tech-savvy readers that are less likely to click on ads.
At some point, I may experiment with some infrequent ads in Google Operating System's feed and I'll post my findings.

How to Protect Your Computer• Keep Your Firewall Turned On• Install or Update Your Antivirus Software• Install or Update Your Antispyware Technology• Keep Your Operating System Up to Date• Be Careful What You Download• Turn Off Your Computer*Source: FBI
Email hacking is an all-too-common occurrence these days, as one Aiken County legislator recently discovered first-hand.
District 84 Rep. Roland Smith received a call from the local legislative delegation office several days ago notifying him an email had been received that appeared to be suspicious. The email contained a link which sent recipients to a website promoting and selling Raspberry Ultra Drops, a weight-management supplement with "8 super ingredients."
Not only had the legislative delegation office received the bogus communication but so had dozens of other people Smith corresponds with regularly via email, including his son in Greenville and daughter in Florida.
The email was absolutely not distributed by him, Smith said, but the result of a successful email hack.
"It was embarrassing that a group of emails went out from Roland Smith that wasn't from me," he said. "I contacted as many people as I could and let them know it wasn't me."
Either Smith's email account was breached or his computer was a "carrier" of a virus activated by a trigger that then generated the unsolicited emails using all of the email addresses in Smith's contact list, according to 4T's Computers Manager Joel Pangborn.
That kind of virus is known as rogueware, a variant of malware or malicious software.
"It's basically holding the customer at ransom, so to speak. It is something that is quite common," Pangborn said. "Most of the time it's coming to you by way of a drive-by pop-up ad. You click the cancel button, but really that means 'OK.'"
The virus will lay dormant for a period of time until it's activated by a trigger so that the user does not associate the virus with what they've just done, he said.
Smith said he was using his computer the night before the fraudulent emails were sent and did not encounter any problems. There appeared to be no indication that he'd been hacked or that his computer carried a virus.
"It's troubling they got to me. Apparently, it's happening all over," he said.
Just last week, the email accounts of both George W. Bush and George H.W. Bush were hacked. The Secret Service is investigating.
"Definitely the first thing you need to do is change your (email) password" if you are the victim of a hack, said David Elder, a computer repair technician with 6 to 9 PC Repair.
A strong password contains eight characters or more, at least one number, one letter and one upper- and lowercase letter, according to Pangborn.
The math involved to decode a password like that is "astronomical," he said. "The only way to get through that is to use a 'brute force attack' (or exhaustive key search), and that takes days. The hackers aren't going to bother with that."
The next step is to take your computer to a professional who can rid it of viruses. Then, notify your contacts of the spam emails.
If you're on the receiving end of a suspicious email, "don't open any email attachments you're not sure of," said Elder.
It also doesn't hurt to invest in anti-virus software. No program is 100 percent effective, but "having some protection is better than having none," Elder said.

But it's not one that I'd focus on when trying to determine who would be the best if all fighters were the same size.
The fact that Bones struggled with someone of similar reach is an indicator that he's not as skilled at using his length as he is as using his length advantage. The same thing happened to Anderson when he misjudged his counterstrike range against Weidman and got caught and KOd. As I anticipate Anderson adjusting for this in the rematch, Bones would do have Jackson meticulously dissect Silva's technique and try to follow the example, particularly if he's ever going to make the jump to HW.

Matt Triick of Perry won with a time of 19:24 – wearing a full gorilla suit, complete with rubber and fur mask.

People must lead on gun controlMarch 18,2013During the Vietnam War, a popular slogan among the wars opponents said, If the people lead, the leaders will follow. That saying came to mind in January, when the media reported that state Sen. Philip Baruth, D-Chittenden, had withdrawn his gun-control bill for lack of support among his legislative colleagues. The bill would have prohibited the manufacture, possession, and transfer of semiautomatic assault rifles and large-capacity ammunition clips, and would have made it a crime to leave a firearm accessible to a child who then used it to injure or kill another person or commit a crime.
Comments made about the Baruth bill by several Democratic senators indicated they were not ready to lead in preventing gun violence in Vermont. One said he opposed gun control in Vermont because the state is rural and firearms are part of rural life. Since when are assault rifles with high-capacity ammunition clips necessary to rural life? The late Tunbridge farmer Fred Tuttle spoke wisely on this subject during his 1998 U.S. Senate campaign against Patrick Leahy. Tuttles campaign was largely tongue-in-cheek (he voted for Leahy), but he hit the bulls eye on gun control by observing that the only guns a Vermonter needs are a deer rifle in hunting season and a shotgun for shooting woodchucks in the garden. He would have scoffed at the notion that a Vermonter needs an assault rifle to defend himself against his government in the freest country in the world.
So if Vermonts rural nature should guide its gun policies, banning assault rifles and high-capacity ammunition magazines is perfectly compatible with life in the Green Mountains.
Another senator said he would have rejected the Baruth bill because he did not want the Senate to have a reactive approach to the December 2012 school shooting in Newtown. In light of Americans refusal to be proactive on guns, though, by permanently banning assault rifles and the accompanying ammunition magazines long ago, what choice do we have other than to react to the continuing slaughter of our children? Besides, being reactive is not necessarily ineffective. For example, Australias reaction to a 1996 shooting spree that left 35 people dead was to ban all automatic and semiautomatic weapons and institute background checks and waiting periods for gun purchases. The effect was dramatic; in the decade before 1996, Australia had experienced 11 mass shootings, but since changing its guns laws, Australia has had no mass shootings.
The premature death of Baruths bill made me wonder why our political leaders in Vermont are unwilling to lead on the gun issue despite this states historic political courage on issues ranging from slavery to gay rights, especially when the prospects for federal gun legislation are doubtful at best. Just as I had begun to despair, though, the Castleton Polling Institute released the results of its Feb. 21 poll. Among the respondents, all Vermonters, 75 percent support requiring background checks of persons who buy guns at gun shows, 66 percent support banning the sale of high-capacity ammunition magazines, 61 percent support banning further sales of assault weapons, and 54 percent even support making the ownership of an assault rifle illegal.
To be sure, the Castleton poll found differences of opinion between Vermonters who own guns and their neighbors who do not, and between Democrats and Republicans.
Although gun owners are less supportive of all potential gun regulations, 71 percent favor background checks at gun shows, 82 percent back stricter reporting requirements for mental-health professionals relative to the national instant background check system (NICS), and 55 percent would even ban the sale of high-capacity ammunition magazines. Similarly, Republicans are less positive than Democrats about gun regulations, but 61 percent of Republicans support background checks at gun shows and 86 percent support requiring mental-health professionals to report to the NICS system patients whom they perceive to be potentially violent.
Thus, Vermonters are well ahead of their political leaders on gun control. If additional evidence of that was necessary, it arrived on Town Meeting Day, when several towns passed warrant articles banning assault weapons, requiring background checks for all gun purchases, and mandating criminal penalties for straw purchasers, who buy guns for individuals who cannot legally do so.
Meanwhile, in Montpelier, several bills that, taken together, would accomplish all the goals of the Baruth bill except banning assault rifles, are languishing in committee. Although they do not address assault rifles, passing any of them would represent progress in combating gun violence in Vermont.
Unfortunately, none of them is likely to pass this year because of slow progress through the committee process and Gov. Shumlins lack of enthusiasm for gun legislation. Still, as the Vietnam War showed, nothing moves politicians like a tsunami of public support. Now, as then, if the people lead, the leaders, eventually, will follow.

Splatoon for MinecraftJun 10, 2015 Script 2 comments

Minecraft is a sandbox construction game created by Mojang AB. It's development started around the 10th of May 2009. Pre-orders for the full game started being accepted on the 13th of June, 2009.
Minecraft is a game about placing blocks to build anything you can imagine. At night monsters come out, make sure to build a shelter before that happens. It also has music by C418.
I've renamed the old version of the game "Minecraft Classic", and will be slowly phasing it out. I won't remove it, though. Just hide it.
You can read more on the development blog, or here.

On his own blog Mojang announced a few days ago that they and consequently their success Minecraft now sold to Microsoft. The sum is the entire two and a half billion dollars. Those who now stood in front of the running of the game - Markus "Notch" Persson, Carl Manneh and Jacob Pors - on the other hand not part of the game anymore and continue with other projects.
Microsoft told the people there that they have a great game plan, and that they will continue to develop Minecraft on all the consoles that have become available - and yes, that's including Playstation consoles. People asked Xbox boss Phil Spencer about this and was told about the purchase, this is what Phil Spencer said on the matter:
"Three years ago we started working on Minecraft with Mojang, and at that time we did not know quite what we were going to accomplish. Following year we launched it, and it became the best selling game on Xbox 360 ever. If you've been following you will see that it still has to be on the leaderboards on Xbox LIVE. there is a game that has found an audience on touch devices, consoles and of course at their home on the PC platform. Wherever you play, the we continue to develop and innovate Minecraft on all these platforms.
"One thing that must be clear is that Microsoft and the Xbox team is very focused on gaming., We will learn a lot by working with a community that is as lively as that found in Minecraft. And players need to know that we meet this with a plan, and a capstone will always be listening to Minecraft fans what they want."
Many people will probably think that Notch agreed to this because of the huge sums of money, but even he believes that the motivation to do something as big as that here is a very different place.
On his blog, he says that he is not able to be at the forefront of a large project that Minecraft now has become, and that it is not just about money but also about his own mind. Now he will return to the small experiments, and although he says he's going to leave a project once it becomes as big as Minecraft.

Highest Rated (133 agree) 10/10
Minecraft is a small building game that looks like it will be very boring at first glance. You look, and you see blocks, you see animals and you see people building dirt houses. Without knowing the mechanics, it cannot be understood. However, once you play, you can suddenly see why people enjoy the game. Minecraft is portrayed as a building game. You put blocks down and build things, which is reflected in the only easily accessible free version. Minecraft is NOT simply a block building game. It…

And something I hadn't even considered before.
But you are right on the money...
Askren was lambasted for being a dominant wrestler... while Nurmagomedov is heralded... for being a dominant grappler.
The difference being, one of them is a UFC fighter (= GOOD) the other a former Bellator champ (= BAD)... at least according to some people's logic.
VERY cool point you raise dude!
Askren NOT being in the UFC is an absolute joke to me... and the most OBVIOUS case of politics trumping what is right/deserved.
How that guy got screwed by DW and Co.... it's a shame.

No investigators appeared to be at the Tupelo home Wednesday morning, and Everett Dutschke said he'd gone to a friend's house to rest. Piles of items could be seen all over the floor through the window. The home was searched Tuesday by dozens of officials, some in hazmat suits, from early in the afternoon until about 11 p.m. CDT. Officials declined to comment on what they had found or on the next phase of the investigation.
At one point, two FBI agents and two members of the state's chemical response team left Dutschke's property and began combing through ditches, culverts and woods about a block away from his house in the neighborhood of single-family detached homes.
Dutschke, who spoke with The Associated Press by telephone during the search, said his house was also searched last week. He said he and his wife had gone to a friend's Wednesday because they didn't feel safe at their home.

The Chattanooga Mocs took over sole possession of first place in the Southern Conference race with a 32-10 win at Campbell tonight. UTC won four matches by two points or less to defeat the Camels who were previously unbeaten in SoCon action.
Chattanooga improves to 14-5 overall and 5-0 in SoCon matches. Campbell drops to 4-2 and 4-1 in league duals. This is UTC's seventh straight win and the most dual victories in a season since posting a 16-1 mark in 2007. The Mocs have won 13 straight Southern Conference matches and are 27-1 in
league duals in the Heath Eslinger era.
Action began at 184 tonight. Each of the first four wrestlers to take the mat came in with perfect 4-0 SoCon records. The opening match was a low-scoring affair that Campbell's Ville Heino led 3-2 in the third. UTC sophomore John Lampe scored a late takedown for the 4-3 win, improving to 15-8 overall and 5-0 in SoCon bouts.
There was much more action at 197. UTC freshman Scottie Boykin held on for his 18th win in a 13-11 decision against Taylor McGiffen. Those were Campbell's best bets for getting something going in the match, but the Mocs were able to hold on and build a 6-0 lead.
Freshman Dawson Peck made it 9-0 with an 8-3 win over Eloheim Palma at heavyweight. Peck continues his hot start, improving to 8-1 since joining the team in January.
The Camels got on the board at 125 with Tyler Walker's 13-4 major decision over Byron Smith. Junior Nick Soto responded with a major decision of his own at 133. Freshman Michael Pongracz gave Chattanooga a 16-4 edge with a one-point decision at 141, but Campbell got back in the match in a flash.
The 149 bout only took 18 seconds as the Camels' Brent Jorge slammed sophomore Austin Sams on a quick headlock. That made the team score 16-10, bringing Campbell to within one pin to tie the score.
Senior Alex Hudson and juniors Corey Mock and Levi Clemons made sure that didn't happen with strong performances to close out the night. Both Hudson and Mock had technical falls at 157 and 165, respectively. Clemons moved to 5-0 in SoCon action with a second-period pin over Cody Ryba in the final match.
UTC will have a chance to clinch at least a share of the SoCon title tomorrow at Davidson. Match time against the Wildcats is set for 1:00 p.m. (E.S.T.) in Davidson, N.C. Links for live scoring and PPV video are available on the wrestling schedule page on GoMocs.com.
