Sony posts unannounced NEX-C3's manual
updated 06:50 am EDT, Tue May 3, 2011
Sony Czech website leaks NEX-C3 manual
The Sony Czech website has published the instruction manual of the forthcoming NEX-C3. The manual for they yet to be formally announced camera reveals that the it will be more compact than the current NEX-5, although it is fitted with a higher specified 16-megapixel Exmor APS HD CMOS sensor. The pictures from the manual are also reported to show a control scheme similar to the layout on the NEX-5, though it features new filters including one called Toy Camera and another called Retro Photo.
The NEX-C3 was due to be announced on April 14, but has been postponed due the supply chain effects of the Japan earthquake. It has been rumored that a May announcement is a possibility, which the appearance of the manual seems to suggest remains accurate. When it is released, it is expected to come in black and silver models and include a large external flash. [via DP Review]

Licking Valley's Scott Morris drives between Heath defenders at Heath last season.
- Filed Under
Ty Griffith and Mason Baker barely saw the court in 2012-13.
That was among several factors contributing to a rare down season for Licking Valley boys basketball. However, both are back for their senior seasons and the Panthers should be, too.
"I've played with these guys ever since I can remember. We won the league as seventh- and eighth-graders," guard Scott Morris said of his senior classmates. "I hated to see that last year, with their injuries. They're going to come out and show everyone what they can do, and they would have done it last year, too." ...

YOUNGSTOWN -- Federal prosecutors charged a northeast Ohio man with violating the federal Clean Water Act after at least 20,000 gallons of gas-drilling waste was dumped into a tributary of the Mahoning River.
The U.S. Attorney's Office charged Ben Lupo, 62, of Poland, near Youngstown.
He pleaded not guilty when he made his initial appearance in U.S. District Court here after self-surrendering this morning after criminal complaint and arrest warrants were issued, court records show.
Lupo and his counsel waived a reading of the complaint and he was released on $50,000 unsecured bond He faces up to three years in prison, a $250,000 fine and a year of supervised release if convicted.
Authorities allege that Lupo directed an employee to illegally discharge the drilling mud and brine into a storm sewer that empties into the Mahoning River watershed on Jan. 31.
The Ohio Department of Natural Resources revoked the permits of Hardrock, a brine hauler, and D&L Energy after workers at the companies' Youngstown headquarters reported seeing the material being dumped.
Hardrock provides services to the oil and gas industry in Ohio and Pennsylvania, including the storage of brine and oil-based drilling mud.
There are approximately 58 mobile storage tanks at the facility and each holds approximately 20,000 gallons.
The Ohio Department of Natural Resources received a call from an anonymous person who stated that on the night of Jan. 31, 2013, someone would be illegally discharging wastewater from the Hardrock facility.
ODNR inspectors arrived and found a hose, connected to a storage tank, discharging wastewater into a stormwater drain at the facility. Inspectors took a sample of the wastewater, which was black in color.
Ohio EPA personnel arrived at the facility on Feb. 1 and found that the unnamed tributary had puddles of oil throughout its length, from where the stormwater drained to the Mahoning River, approximately one mile away. Oil and an oily sheen were also visible in the Mahoning River.
That day, an EPA representative spoke with Lupo about the discharge into the storm drain. Lupo admitted he directed a Hardrock employee to discharge the contents of the storage drain into the stormwater drain, and further admitted that he directed discharge from a storage tank a total of six times, according to the affidavit.
Lupo later told EPA and DNR personnel that he directed a Hardrock employee to drain storage tanks at Hardrock into the nearby stormwater drain six times over the previous six months, and that Lupo was the one who "gave the word" for the storage tanks to be discharged, according to the affidavit.
On Feb. 12, a Hardrock employee state that the discharges began in November 2012 at the direction of Lupo and that the employee was aware of at least 20 discharges into the stormwater.
The employee further stated that Lupo directed the employee , if questioned by authorities, to state that the discharges were limited to a total of four to six times, according to the affidavit.
At a 1 p.m. press conference today, the charges were announced by U.S. Attorney Steven M. Dettelbach, Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine, Mahoning County Prosecutor Paul Gaines, Ohio Department of Natural Resources Director Jim Zehringer and representatives from the U.S. and Ohio Environmental Protection Agencies.

Sharks will get better - LambieComment on this story
When the most humble man in the Sharks team says his team is a long way off playing to their potential despite hitting the ground running against the Bulls, it should be interpreted as a warning to their Super Rugby foes, beginning with the Hurricanes at Kings Park on Saturday.
And from the pivotal position of flyhalf, the unfailingly polite Patrick Lambie is in the ideal position to gauge his team's performance.
He says he and his teammates are still getting used to "reading the music" that conductor Jake White has composed for the Sharks.
"The encouraging thing is that we feel we can improve a lot on the Bulls performance. We worked very hard in the pre-season on the systems and structures of how Jake wants to play but it is going to take a little time to execute them better, although four tries in the humidity of Durban was a nice way to start," the 23-year-old says.
"Jannie du Plessis did some research into how often a try-scoring bonus point has been scored in a first-round match at Kings Park and he battled to find any cases," added Lambie, whose famous baby face now has a string of stitches across the bridge of his nose, courtesy of a stray Bulls boot.
"From a backs perspective, we scored a great try from first phase play, which we were quite chuffed about," he said. "But we had a few four-on-three opportunities, and even four-on-two opportunities that we didn't capitalise on. In Super Rugby, you don't get many opportunities where you have a numerical advantage, so we need to be more efficient."
Lambie said the public backing given to him by the coach regarding him being the first-choice flyhalf for the season had been a pleasant boost.
"Jake wants me to 'read the music' and have a go when it's on," Lambie said. "He wants me to take charge and control and direct the forwards. I think if I can get better with that every week we'll be in a good place. There is an outline of how Jake wants us to play, which is necessary at this level, but he's big on making us react to what is in front of us.
"That means you need to know when it's the right time to get the ball in your hands, to have a go, and when to kick," the flyhalf continued. "We do have a licence to play what's in front of us and to attack the space."
Lambie says the physically imposing Francois Steyn at inside centre is a reassuring presence for him.
"Frans is a great player and it's great to have a big, strong guy on my outside," he said. "He plays with freedom and flair, which I think the whole squad feeds off, and so I'm really enjoying playing with Frans.
"We saw his skill with the boot when the he chipped perfectly for Odwa Ndungane's try on Saturday," Lambie added. "We've all been working really hard on our kicking skills. In Super Rugby you need to be tactical and get into the right areas of the field, and to put pressure on the opposition, and then convert that pressure into points. It's a big part of the game nowadays and something we'll continue to work on."
Lambie said that the Hurricanes will provide a different challenge to that of the Bulls, and the home team are expecting a high-paced game from a team that has never had a problem scoring tries.
"They might well come with the philosophy of attacking at all costs," he said. "They could run the ball from everywhere. They have some very dangerous backline players and some real game-breakers there.
"Their backline is littered with big, strong, fast ball players. So we'll have to make sure of our one-on-one tackles and ensure we nullify their space."

Villa v Norwich: Vlaar on why he wants the fans to yell and scream
Ron Vlaar says it will be easier for Villa to give Norwich hell if the fans yell.
Vlaar is one of a number of players who this week has reiterated the importance of fan support as Villa look to march up the Barclays Premier League table.
Skipper Vlaar has been thoroughly impressed with the decibel levels achieved by the claret and blue army so far this term.
He wants more of the same on Saturday as the Canaries clash hits Villa Park.
He said: "The fans have been brilliant and that is important for us.
"They can see that we are having a difficult time at the moment but on Saturday it is another game which starts at 0-0 and they can play their part.
"You can feel their support and it is a great help. We need it and they can see that we need it.
"We will try to play the best we possibly can and have a good game. That will give the fans the right signals.
"It makes it easier for them to cheer us on if they see we are trying our best.
"You saw against Fulham they were yelling and screaming for us the whole time and it was great.
"Everyone wants to do better and that always starts with the next game and our next game is Norwich on Saturday.
"That is a chance to regain some confidence, win a game and we have to look forward and focus on that now."
Vlaar admits it's a delight to be claret and blue captain although he believes he will "grow into the role" as the weeks and months pass.
He added: "Settling into the captaincy has not been easy.
"I have some experience with it from Feyenoord, of course, but here is a different league, different language and different culture.
"So I know that I will have to grow into the role. I hope I will get even better at it.
"But there is an old saying about 11 captains on the pitch. I personally think now you need 20-25 because it is a long season and we need everybody in the squad."
Make sure you're here to back the boys against Norwich City.

N Srinivasan has been asked by the Supreme Court to be replaced due to his long line of sins that have caught up with him. This will not only screw N Srinivasan but also mess with Chennai Super Kings who have also been asked to be disallowed to play Indian premier League 7 matches due to the tainted record.
An extremely funny video showing his reign of oppression as BCCI president with amazing use of graphics has been posted on Lalit Modi's website and YouTube page. (Read: N Srinivasan to be replaced by Sunil Gavaskar)
The video discusses his family ties, his leadership at BCCI, future aspirations as head of ICC and many other super powers that he has which he modestly doesn't propagate unless he is at a BCCI meeting.

Having a plan for your family during emergencies and natural disasters removes worries and alleviates stress during extremely difficult times. If your family all knows your family emergency meeting places, you can focus your energies on recovering from a disaster instead of responding. Setting up a family emergency meeting place is easy and takes just a few minutes:
You'll actually need a few different meeting places for your family depending on the emergency at hand. Once you and your family decide where you are meeting, make sure your children know which meeting place is appropriate for which disaster – you don't want your children running to the basement during a fire for example. Run several practice rounds so that the information is ingrained into both your mental and muscle memories.
Meeting Place #1: Inside Your House
Where would you like your family to meet if there is an emergency such as a tornado or a shelter-in-place situation? Basements are usually the obvious choice, but if you don't have a basement, then you'll need to select another room. You'll want to choose a room that no or few windows and are on the main or ground floor for safety and ease of sealing off windows.
Meeting Place #2: Directly Outside Your House
In the event of fire or other disasters that require immediate evacuation, pick a meeting place right outside your house that near the house but not next to it. The mailbox, a tree in the front yard, the sidewalk or the end of the driveway can all be a good location. It is crucial to practice evacuating to this meeting place especially with small children so that you do not have to be worried about them being trapped in the backyard.
Meeting Place #3: In your Neighborhood
If you are away from home when an emergency occurs and are not able to get back to your house – perhaps trees are down and are blocking you from your street – choose a meeting place that is in your neighborhood. It could be a friend's house, a church, a community center, a hotel/motel or even a store that is open 24 hours. You can contact your local emergency management office to learn which buildings in your neighborhood are designated storm shelter sites, valuable especially in situations of flooding. You'll have a safe place to go, and your family, if you are separated, will know where to call to make sure you arrived safely. A place that is within walking distance from your home is ideal.
Meeting Place #4: Out-of-Town
Hurricanes, flooding and other area-specific emergencies require an evacuation plan that asks you to leave your home and neighborhood far behind. If phone lines are down and you are separated from your family during an evacuation, you will be able to rest easy knowing that your family is headed for the same out-of-town evacuation location. Choosing this location will require some careful consideration of geographical factors: if you are evacuating from a hurricane, you'll want to move inland. If you are evacuating from a flood or tsunami, you'll be looking for a location at higher altitudes.
Once you've decided your out-of-town meeting place, make sure all family members have directions and discuss alternate transportation options in the event that you don't have a car, you run out of gas, etc. Is there a public transportation option?
Once you've designated your four meeting places, make sure each family member has a printed copy of the locations, the addresses and the phone and email addresses to those locations. Ask that they put a copy in their emergency backpacks, send a copy to their email and download a copy to their portable flash drives.
Where are some locations you and your family have decided to meet?

"Be a leader… and never, never give up."
Born in Los Angeles in 1935, Jack Kemp was the third in a family of four boys. His father was a truck driver who eventually owned a small trucking business. As a youth, Kemp worked part time for his father's trucking firm, saving his earnings to help pay for his college education.
He attended Occidental College in Los Angeles, where he majored in physical education and minored in history. He was the quarterback for his college team and led all other small-college quarterbacks in passing in 1956. After graduating from college in 1957, Kemp signed with the Los Angeles Chargers and led the AFL in passing that year. He was traded to the Buffalo Bills and helped the team win two successive AFL championships in 1964 and 1965, the year he was voted the League's Most Valuable Player. Later that year, he co-founded the American Football League Players Association and served as its president for five years.
In 1970, Kemp retired from football and ran a successful campaign for Congress. He served a total of nine terms, representing the Buffalo area and western New York for 18 years in the U. S. House of Representatives. During that time, he served as chairman of the House Republican Conference, a post he held for seven years.
He served in the administration of George H. W. Bush as the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development from 1989 to 1993. His leadership in the department encouraged entrepreneurship and job creation in impoverished neighborhoods and expanded homeownership among the poor through resident management and ownership of public housing. In 1996, Kemp was the vice presidential nominee for the Republican Party, running alongside Senator Bob Dole against Bill Clinton.
Kemp was the founder and chairman of Kemp Partners, a strategic consulting firm that helped clients achieve both business and public policy goals.* Deceased

GLENDALE, Ariz. -- After getting his first NHL hat trick and a natural one at that, Andrew Cogliano thought about when his last one took place.
"Maybe once in junior," Cogliano said. "I scored four goals in one game. Other than that nothing in college or the NHL."
His college reference was Michigan. And junior was obviously not one of the Canadian major junior teams but the junior "A" level St. Michael's Buzzers.
But the Ducks forward came through big time in a 4-1 win over Phoenix as he and his linemates, Matt Beleskey and Nick Bonino, were roaring all night while their usual scoring stars were trying to shake out of their All-Star break lethargy.
Cogliano said he has wanted to shoot the puck more often and gave all the credit to Beleskey on his first goal, an easy tap-in set up when Beleskey took the puck away from Phoenix goalie Mike Smith behind the Coyotes' net.
Ducks coach Bruce Boudreau could see that there was something brewing even before that moment.
"I thought Cogs had an extra step tonight before that," Boudreau said. "And when he scored, I said to myself, 'Boy, I thought he was going.' I didn't think he was going three goals. But I thought he was going."
Said Cogliano: "We were chipping pucks in and doing the right things. We had some good chemistry right in the first period and had some good chances right off the bat. That was huge for us. I think we gained confidence as the period went on. In the second, pretty much everything right happened for us."
Boudreau joked that "it might have been the ugliest hat trick I've ever seen" after Smith let Cogliano's final two goals basically go through him, which got him the hook from Coyotes coach Dave Tippett.
But the coach, who was a big-time AHL goal scorer in his day, readily acknowledged Cogliano's feat.
"I think the hat trick is special," he said. "Unless your name is Ovechkin or somebody that has a few of them in their day where they're sort of ho-hum. I think for any guy that hasn't had one before, it's a tremendous feat. It's a pretty cool thing to have a NHL hat trick."
Here are some other facts about Cogliano's three-goal night from a historical angle, as provided by the Ducks media relations staff:
-- It was the fifth natural hat trick in club history. The most recent one was accomplished by Corey Perry on Feb. 5, 2011 at Colorado.
-- It was the second fastest hat trick as it was accomplished in 6 minutes, 51 seconds. Bobby Ryan scored three goals in a 2:21 span on Jan. 8, 2009 against the Kings in Los Angeles.
-- It was the fourth time that a Ducks player scored three goals in a single period. Teemu Selanne did it twice, first on Nov. 10, 1997 against San Jose in the first period and then on Feb. 1, 2001 at Phoenix in the third period. Vinny Prospal scored three goals in the third period on Jan. 23, 2004 against Minnesota.
-- The hat trick was the 37th in franchise history. Cogliano joined Perry and Saku Koivu with three-goal nights this season and became the 13th different player to do so as a Duck.

Before my husband, Craig, and I got a puppy six years ago, we had the conversation: How much would we be willing to spend to save the dog's life?
We'd watched as Craig's mom and her husband shelled out quite a bit on chemotherapy for their dog Lady. (They then started calling her Laptop, because that's how the money was going to be spent.) Lady/Laptop, an older, large-breed dog, died about a year later.
I thought $1,000 was a fair figure. Craig was less generous, throwing out $500. We both agreed there was a financial limit. (And whether it's right or wrong, we both agreed the limit was higher for our new cockapoo, Willow, than for our older, adopted cat.)
Fast-forward to last year, when a routine vet visit showed an unexpected problem in our puppy: Bladder stones. The solution? Surgery, at a price tag of about $1,400.
This tested our limit commitment. I couldn't in good conscience put down a dog because she had crystals in her bladder. She was (and still is) a young dog for her breed, otherwise in good health. It wasn't a life-threatening condition, but one that would cause Willow pain, and would inconvenience us with her urinary incontinence.
I decided to call around to a few different veterinary clinics to get quotes. (You do this when getting your car fixed, why not your animal?) Thankfully, another clinic in town could do the surgery for around $800, keeping our self-imposed limit in tact.
Now, fast-forward a little further to today. We've spent hundreds upon hundreds more on that mutt, for special foods, antibiotics, ultrasounds, urinalyses, etc. The stones just keep coming back. We're planning another operation, frustrated to see our budget blown by the family beast but not willing to give her up, or give up on her.
It's puppy love, I guess. What can you do?
Money Savin' Mama has some ideas that may help you save money on your pets, even if our dollars keep getting thrown to the dog.
1) Before you get an animal, consider the true cost. It's not just the adoption fee or the amount you pay the breeder. Factor in yearly food, grooming and vet bills. Some breeds are more prone to specific health problems. Could you afford a special needs pet? Check out the slideshow that accompanies this Kiplinger article on the cost of pets.
2) Set aside doggie dollars every month. Figure out how much you expect to spent on the pet per year, divide by 12, and deposit that much every month into a savings account. We've been earmarking money for the pets, which has kept us from going into debt on their account.
3) Research pet insurance. You might decide it's a worthwhile expense for your family. MSN Money financial writer Liz Weston tackled the issue in this column.
4) Call around. Like I found, some veterinary clinics are more affordable than others. When facing this latest surgery, I asked our vet if it was possible to have veterinary students perform the surgery for a discount. She said that is a possibility in larger cities, like Minneapolis or Denver. Fargo-Moorhead has a low-cost spay/neuter organization, PAAWS.
5) Know your options. We'll be declining the optional blood work and laser procedure with Willow's upcoming surgery. Ask if an expense is necessary. If it's optional, weigh the cost versus the benefit.

Do I Need a Wide Board? (DRAFT)
I. Do I Need a Wide Board?
Many riders dont realize that board width is just as important as board length. If your boots are too large for the waist of the board, you risk experiencing the phenomenon known as toe drag. This is where the front of your boots drag against the snow when you come up on an edge. This, of course, is not desirable. The only thing that should come in contact with the snow is your board itself.
Riders who have boot sizes of 10.5 (mens) are typically branded as large-footed riders. There are particular boards built just for large-footed mutants. Typically referred to as wide boards, these boards usually have waist widths that are over 260mm in width. Two other things can also factor into this. First, some boots are bulkier than others. If you end up with a really bulky boot, you may need a wider deck than if you have a less-bulky boot. Second, is binding angle (see other thread in this forum for information on binding angles). Bindings set are certain angles (+15 / -15) can reduce toe drag. However, you should NEVER set you binding angles up for the sole purpose of eliminating toe drag. Last, be weary of any salesman who tries to sell you a full -wide board the moment you tell him that you have size 11 boots. These days, sales guys should be familiar with the concept that all wide boards are not exactly the same.
Much of this information was paraphrased from an article written by Chris Uriarte, Mark Helwig and David OMalley. Some of it is even directly quoted from them. We are taking no credit for being the original authors of this work, and give credit to Chris, Mark and David. Thanks, guys.

Windows Multimedia mmioRead DoS Vulnerability
It is possible to create specialy malformed audio file that will cause DoS
in application, that uses Windows's winmm.dll library to access media
According to MSDN:
The mmioRead function reads a specified number of bytes from a file opened
by using the mmioOpen function.
LONG mmioRead(
HMMIO hmmio,
HPSTR pch,
LONG cch
hmmio - File handle of the file to be read.
pch - Pointer to a buffer to contain the data read from the file.
cch - Number of bytes to read from the file.
Return Values
Returns the number of bytes actually read. If the end of the file has been
reached and no more bytes can be read, the return value is 0. If there is
an error reading from the file, the return value is - 1.
As we can see when we pass to big in cch parameter the function should
return -1. This is not what happens. When pushing very large value for
instance 0xFFFFFFFF the function mmioRead enters endless loop. A Proof of
Concept WAVE file has been created and it's available at:
http://sectroyer.110mb.com/mmio_die.wav. When this file is opened by
application SndRec32 it will cause 100% CPU consumption.

While every network is guilty of slamming an ax down on shows before a cancelation is warranted, Fox has been the series-ending posterchild for decades now. Here are 12 series that Fox should constantly hide its head in shame for canceling. Sorry if this puts you guys in a bad mood all over again.
Part of the fun in going to comic conventions is seeing the hundreds (and sometimes thousands) of people dressed up as their favorite fictional characters. And part of the fun in watching a series about comic conventions is seeing actual celebrities doing the same thing.
Though ratings are rarely the best way to determine a shows specific impact on society at large, each years top-rated shows often lack a surprising number of much-talked-about series, and here are 7 shows whose fame was far more prevalent by word-of-mouth over eyes-on-screens.
I may have to check my calendar, but Im pretty sure its a day that ends in Y, as evidenced by Gotham adding yet another cast member that can safely be described as a villain. And this one comes from the comics, but with a twist.
Weve used our pocket tractor beam to draw in the 10 funniest science fiction series out there. As well, we're using the reverse beam to deflect all opposing views. Grab your favorite towel and read on.
Just a few weeks ago, Firefly alums Alan Tudyk and Nathan Fillion put together an awesome viral campaign to jumpstart a new TV project called Con Man. The campaign was incredibly successful, and Con Man is already moving forward, and this is how the Firefly crew might get involved.
They are animated programs, coming of age programs, and everything running the gamut in between. These are shows that have stuck with us long after their 12-episode, 22-episode or whatever episode runs have ended and that we wish could come back for one last hurrah.
Indeed, the universe is vast and dangerous and to accommodate our slothful requirements, were going to need a list of 5 very aesthetically different candidates in our search for the most excellently tranquil of transports. So, on that note, lets look at the 5 science fiction spaceships we'd love to live in.
There are presumably millions of people out there who still mourn the TV passing of Firefly, sometimes humbly and sometimes annoyingly. Stars Alan Tudyk and Nathan Fillion are calling out to that same science fiction-loving fanbase to help get their next project off the ground.
HBOs Game of Thrones proved that TV works in IMAX theaters, with a run of highly lucrative IMAX screenings this past weekend. And you can bet this won't be the last time something like that happens. Here are five shows that we think need to head to IMAX next.
Science fiction and television should, technically speaking, be in perfect harmony. Science fiction deals with what-if scenarios, which have played out beautifully in such classic pulp science magazine as Galaxy, Astounding Science Fiction and Fantasy & Science Fiction. Television, on the other hand, thrives when it exploits serial storytelling, and is perfect for the anthology series.
Limited and "event" series are on the rise these days, and as evidenced by 24's anticipated return, the format is an intriguing option as it relates to TV show comebacks, as it doesn't require a long-term commitment for those involved in making it, or the network looking to get it on the air.Firefly's Tim Minear thinks that format would be preferable if ever the series were to make its way back to television.
TV fans have seen a few rays of hope in the last year or so. Shows that were cancelled long ago have been given a reprieve in some form or another. Veronica Mars is headed to the big screen, thanks to a hugely successful Kickstarter campaign. Meanwhile, in just a matter of weeks, Arrested Development will return with a new season after a seven-year hiatus. It seems almost too good to be true, and at the same time, it's given fans hope that maybe other gone-but-not-forgotten series have a shot at a comeback...
Fox doesnt want you knitting your own hats, Firefly fans. Or, to be more accurate, they dont want you selling your homemade knitted hats. In the past few weeks the giant broadcasting company has started coming down on anyone who makes and sells the hand-knitted orange hat worn by Jayne Cobb (Adam Baldwin) in an episode of the short-lived Fox series that aired over a decade ago.
Since Firefly became such a cult phenomenon, Gina Torres and Nathan Fillion should have had plenty of excuses to run into one another at conventions and the like. However, now the two will meet back up on the small screen, with Torres joining Fillions starring vehicle, Castle, for a special episode. I hope the two characters will maintain the verbal report they had on the series, but one things for certain, Torres will not be playing Fillions second-in-command.

Why a Kansas-Kentucky clash would be legendary...
This April, the NCAA Men's Basketball Championship Game will be held in Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana. We, the college basketball fans of the world, can only hope and pray that the Kansas Jayhawks and Kentucky Wildcats make it to that esteemed game. Because if they don't, fans of the game will always wonder what would happen if these two powerhouses clashed...
Many things contribute to a Kansas-Kentucky championship game potentially being the best ever. It's a bold statement, but I truly think a game between these two would be, simply put, sick basketball. One of those factors is the fact that, no matter their rankings/seeds, in my opinion the Kansas Jayhawks and Kentucky Wildcats are, by far, the two best teams in the country. They are the only first-tier teams, and there is a significant drop-off before you get to the second-tier teams of Duke, Syracuse, etc.
Another thing is their respective legacies. Kentucky and Kansas are always expected to do big things come March, and fulfilling those expectations would definitely be satisfactory for their die-hard fans.
Two of the best coaches in the nation would also clash. I honestly believe Bill Self can work with any group of guys and make them as great as they have the potential to be. A true basketball mastermind. John Calipari singlehandedly turned Kentucky from an average squad last year to a championship-caliber team this season. For that, Calipari deserves as much respect as any of the star players of the Wildcats.
Talking about players, a Kansas-Kentucky matchup would showcase two amazing head to head battles. For starters, there is the big man matchup. While Marcus Morris has become a rock for the Jayhawks this season, especially in conference play, Cole Aldrich is the overall better big who would square off vs. DeMarcus Cousins of Kentucky. Aldrich and Cousins are both, arguably, 1st Team All-Americans. Defensively, Aldrich is a true shot-altering artist. He will bang with any big down low. Cousins is a scoring threat around the rim. He would push Aldrich to his limits, while keeping him contested on the other end. It would, for sure, be a great big man matchup.
The other star matchup would be, again, a matchup of arguably two more 1st Team All-Americans. Senior Kansas guard Sherron Collins has cemented his legacy already for the Jayhawks, and will go down as one of the best players to ever don the Kansas jersey. However, as the leader of the team, he knows that their job is far from over. From his in-your-face, aggressive style of defense, to his ability to penetrate by his defender and attack the basket, to his undeniable urge to put the team on his shoulders and take responsibility for any loss, Collins is a true player of heart who will do whatever it takes to win. On the other end, for Kentucky, in one season John Wall has made a name for himself as possibly the best player in the nation. A true floor general who can drop points and rack up dimes, Wall has an array of skills that have people so convinced that many have him penciled in for next year's #1 draft pick. The solid senior guard vs. the fantastic freshman, two of the best players in the country, would be quite epic.
Honestly, a Kansas-Kentucky matchup would be beautifully amazing. Two #1 seeded teams with a total of four guys who should end up as All-Americans, two of the most qualified coaches in the nation, two basketball programs who want a championship badly. Two of the best guards in the nation going head to head, two of the best big men in the nation going head to head. The two best teams in the coutnry, top to bottom, going head to head...
Cross your fingers.

#3 Kansas vs. #14 North Dakota State Preview
The Kansas Jayhawks will face the North Dakota State Bison this Friday, March 20th. On the line is a trip to the round of the 32 in the men's NCAA tournament.
The Jayhawks are a number three seed, making the Bison the number fourteen seed. The Jayhawks finished with an overall record of 25-7, with a 14-2 record in the Big 12. Meanwhile, the Bison finished with an overall record of 26-6, with a 16-2 record in the Summit League.
The Bison are led by guard Ben Woodside, who is averaging over 22 points and 6 assists per game. Truly amazing numbers. KU must keep an eye out for Woodside on Friday, who can light it up at any time. Also, forward Brett Winkelman is averaging over 18 points and 7 boards per game. Paired with Woodside, they are a dynamic scoring duo.
The Jayhawks are led by guard Sherron Collins and big man Cole Aldrich, who is averaging a double-double this season. Head coach Bill Self has done a great job in mentoring younger players on the team. Marcus Morris is thriving as a role player for KU, while Brady Morningstar has developed a great outside shooting game. Combining these role players with the seasoned "vets" in Collins and Aldrich gives you a pretty nice team.
For the Jayhawks to win, Collins and Aldrich have to dictate games the way they have done all season. Also, they must shut down the tandem of Woodside and Winkelman. Morris and Morningstar must help control the tempo and feel of the game.
I think North Dakota State will start the game off strong, but slowly start to fall behind. Kansas has a bit more depth, talent, and experience, and that will lead the Jayhawks to the win.
Prediction: Kanas 79, North Dakota State 68

Texas Tech puts up pitiful effort against Kansas
Pitiful performance by the Red Raiders. Coming off a big win against Texas, I expected to see the Red Raiders give�us a big challenge and possibly upset us like the last�meeting between us. Instead, I saw a terrible performance from the Red Raiders, and a blowout�performance by Kansas�that I wouldn't have finished watching if it wasn't Senior Night. They didn't even put up an effort, which was the�worst part...�At least Pat Knight was classy afterwards. Congrats to Bill Self and the Jayhawks. I still believe if we can get over our inconsistancy, we could get to the Final Four easily.
Go Jayhawks!

Article in the Examiner: Leigh-Chantelle & Vegan Evolution
Written by Leigh-Chantelle
Created Wednesday, 03 July 2013
Jeannette Smith from the Examiner who writes about animal advocacy wrote a lovely article on me recently.
Here's how it starts:
Cheerful, with a ribbon in her hair - an exclamation point of togetherness on the top of the world. Her demeanor radiates gently. Like glowing flower petals floating to the ground, she plants a soft and shimmering trail to follow. While her distinctive Australian accent dictates her place of birth and residence, she is a woman of the earth, a gatherer of positive people, a leader of the world community. She is Leigh-Chantelle.

Even head coach Paul Wulff must be getting tired of hearing the same question over and over . . . how are you going to replace two of the greatest playmakers in the history of the school, league and even the nation in quarterback Erik Meyer and wide receiver Eric Kimble?
The answer isn't simple for the two-time defending Big Sky Conference champions and NCAA Division I-AA Playoff participant. But it will at least begin to be answered Aug. 10 when the Eagles begin three weeks of preparations for their season-opener on Aug. 31 at Oregon State. Following that game, Eastern plays another NCAA Division I-A opponent when the Eagles play at West Virginia on Sept. 7.
"You have to find players that understand what it takes to win ballgames, and maybe we have to find different ways to get that done," said Wulff. "That's college football -- players change every year and your playmakers aren't always the same year-in and year-out. I wish I could sign guys to 10-year contracts like the NFL, but that's not like it is in college."
New players report for practices on Monday, Aug. 7, and are joined one day later by veterans. The first official practice for all players together is Thursday, Aug. 10, in the morning, with the first practice in pads taking place the next morning.
Morning practices will start at 9 a.m. and afternoon practices will start at 2:30 p.m. (interviews should take place about a half-hour prior to the scheduled start time).
Eastern will scrimmage twice before taking on the Beavers. The first scrimmage is scheduled for Thursday, Aug. 17, at 2:30 p.m., and the second scrimmage will take place at about 10 a.m. on Aug. 23. Both scrimmages are free and open to the public.
Wulff already has a plan for replacing Meyer, who now plays for the Cincinnati Bengals of the National Football League after winning the 2005 Walter Payton Award as the top player in I-AA. The plan is for junior Chris Peerboom and freshman redshirt Matt Nichols to split playing time early in the season to see which quarterback leads the offense the best.
"It's still open because nobody has proven they can do it in a game," said Wulff. "So we are going into the season with the candidates we have, and as long as they stay healthy, they are going to get an opportunity to prove it in the game."
Eastern is also looking for capable replacements for a quartet of senior wide receivers. One of them was Kimble, a two-time All-America selection.
"They are two of the best players to ever play in this conference," said Wulff. "But in the game of football there are 11 players on the field, and we feel like we have a program that can be extremely successful with whatever 11 players we put out there. That's not going to change."
Eastern returns 41 letter winners, including 19 on offense, 20 on defense, its kicker and its punter. In all, 14 starters are back, with experience heaviest at safety and along the offensive and defensive lines.
"Our goals are to win the conference championship, get to the playoffs and make a run for the national championship," added Wulff. "Our seniors sure as heck want to push it as long and far as we can take it. We expect that and our players know what it takes to get there. Anything other than that is contrary to what our goals are."
"Is it going to happen? . . . you never know. But it is a realistic goal for us."

An interview with CEO Bob Beauchamp
These tips can help you save money
Join the NASDAQ Community today and get free, instant access to portfolios, stock ratings, real-time alerts, and more!
About four million unlucky taxpayers will discover that they
must pay the alternative minimum tax when they file their 2011 tax
returns next year. For most, it can be a nasty surprise, wiping out
crucial deductions and exemptions they normally claim, resulting in
a bigger tax bill.
12 Year-End Tax Moves to Make Now
But if you knew in advance that you might be subject to the AMT,
you could make some smart year-end tax-planning decisions to
mitigate the damage. We've created a
simple calculator
to help you figure out if you might be an AMT victim.
The AMT is a parallel tax system created more than 40 years ago
to prevent excessive use of tax breaks by the very wealthy,
ensuring they paid at least some tax. But because it was never
indexed for inflation, the AMT has morphed from a "class tax" into
a "mass tax", affecting millions of middle-class Americans each
year. The number of taxpayers owing the AMT grew from about 20,000
in 1970 to about four million in 2011, according to the nonpartisan
Tax Policy Center.
The AMT does not allow deductions for state and local taxes,
home-equity loan interest (unless the borrowed money was used for
home improvements), or tax and investment expenses -- write-offs
that save money in the regular tax world. Nor does it allow
personal exemptions -- worth $3,700 this year -- for yourself, your
spouse and each of your dependent children. Consequently, taxpayers
with large families or those who live in high-tax states, such as
California and New York, are more likely to find themselves subject
to the stealth tax.
Normally, if you pay quarterly estimated state income taxes or
have a real estate tax bill due in January, you can prepay it in
December and boost your deductions on your 2011 federal tax return
due next spring. But if you're subject to the AMT, this
sooner-rather-than-later strategy won't work for you.
Beyond denying such write-offs for taxes, the AMT also puts the
squeeze on deductions for medical expenses. In the regular tax
world, medical costs in excess of 7.5% of adjusted gross income can
be deducted. In AMT-land, the threshold is 10% of AGI. (The AMT
does, however, permit tax deductions for charitable contributions,
so you can go ahead and make your usual year-end donations.)
The top AMT rate is 28%, well below the 35% at which the regular
tax maxes out. But because more income can be taxed by the AMT, you
could wind up with a bigger tax bill. In fact, you only owe the AMT
when it costs you more than the regular tax.
Although the AMT exemption is not indexed for inflation, in
recent years Congress has protected millions of taxpayers by
passing temporary patches to raise the level, usually one year at a
time. Taxpayers whose income exceeds the AMT exemption must
calculate both regular tax and AMT liability and pay the larger
amount. For 2011, the AMT exemption is $48,450 for individuals and
$74,450 for married couples filing jointly.
But unless Congress acts, exemption levels will drop to $22,500
for individuals and $45,000 for married couples filing jointly in
2012, exposing 31 million taxpayers to the AMT next year, according
to Tax Policy Center estimates.
That means virtually 100% of married couples with incomes
between $50,000 and $475,000 -- even those who claim the standard
deduction -- would be subject to the AMT next year unless exemption
levels are raised, says Michael Kitces. Kitces is the director of
research for the Pinnacle Advisory Group, in Columbia, Md., and
developed the data that serves as the basis of our AMT calculator.
Single taxpayers are threatened, too. Without another patch, almost
all single taxpayers with income between $150,000 to $300,000 will
be subject to the AMT in 2012.
So check out our calculator
before you decide to pay state income or real estate taxes in
December that you could put off until January. If it looks like
you'll be an AMT victim, don't bother.

With all due respect Mr. John M. Apanites, who wrote the letter "Portman steals our voice" (April 24 Suburban Life), while Mr. Portman may have gotten contributions of campaign funds from the NRA, to speculate that it influenced his decision is wrong.
Evidently you haven't seen Mr. Portman in camo carrying his rifle.
You have to realize that gun owners do not need to have guns because they are concerned about the government taking their property. They have the right to have guns to protect their family and property from criminals and a tyrannical government.
I fought for those rights. I believe in those rights. Our Constitution is about rights, not needs.
Mr. Portman did not steal a voice, he spoke with a voice. Mine!
Our Constitution is neither up for interpretation or debate.

- Filed Under
Medicaid expansion under the Affordable Care Act has again become a topic of discussion in Baton Rouge. While Gov. Bobby Jindal and others oppose expansion, it is attracting a certain amount of bipartisan support.
Although the launch of the ACA, also known as "Obamacare," has been less than stellar and the rules seem to change with regularity, the fact remains that the governor's refusal to accept Medicaid expansion has left about 242,000 low-income Louisiana citizens in health insurance limbo.
Louisiana should take the money Washington is offering for several reasons - not the least of which is that it would help 242,000 people.
These are the people who fall into an insurance gap. They make too much money to qualify for traditional Medicaid and too little to qualify for insurance premium subsidies under the ACA.
That leaves many of them using hospital emergency rooms for health care - the most notoriously expensive place to go for everything from stitches to the flu.
And it can be even more costly if a patient waits to seek treatment until an illness has become acute.
Sen. Ben Nevers, D-Bogalusa, has introduced three pieces of legislation aimed at bringing those Medicaid dollars into the state.
SB 96 is asking for a constitutional amendment to let the voters decide whether the state will accept the ACA and thus, Medicaid expansion.
Nevers told The Daily Advertiser he is looking at the way Arkansas has implemented the Medicaid funding.
"The other models I'm looking at are the ones in Pennsylvania and Michigan," Nevers said.
Following the Arkansas model, the state would use the infusion of federal dollars to pay the premiums for private insurance for those who fall between zero and 130 percent of the federal poverty guidelines.
This is an approach to providing insurance to the working poor that could succeed.
The federal government would assume a hundred percent of the program's cost for the first three years, then 90 percent of it until 2020.
It's hard to see the downside - certainly during the first three years.
Nevers finds it hard to understand the administration's reluctance to accept the money on principle.
After all, he said, officials don't hesitate to draw down federal matching funds for transportation, road construction, education and other functions of government - why not health insurance?
Why not, indeed?
And besides, Louisiana taxpayers' money is going to Washington to pay for Medicaid expansion, funding the program in the 25 states that have accepted it.
Wouldn't it make sense to bring some of that money home?
But Nevers' plan is meeting resistance. One group, Americans for Prosperity, is asking legislators to sign a document pledging not to accept Medicaid expansion.
Even some proponents of Medicaid expansion, like Sen. Fred Mills, R-Parks, are reluctant to move forward on the matter, partly because of the current political climate.
"I think it's not the year to fight the Medicaid expansion issue," said Mills, a pharmacist. "I'm going to start a commission to study the monetary effects on Louisiana of not expanding Medicaid. That's the key."
Perhaps. But can the uninsured of Louisiana afford to wait? This year alone, there is an expected $27 million shortfall in Medicaid funding to the state.
This money is available now to help low-income citizens obtain better health care.
The time has come to act on their behalf.

|The large contribution of projected HFC emissions to future climate forcing.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 19549868 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|The consumption and emissions of hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) are projected to increase substantially in the coming decades in response to regulation of ozone depleting gases under the Montreal Protocol. The projected increases result primarily from sustained growth in demand for refrigeration, air-conditioning (AC) and insulating foam products in developing countries assuming no new regulation of HFC consumption or emissions. New HFC scenarios are presented based on current hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC) consumption in leading applications, patterns of replacements of HCFCs by HFCs in developed countries, and gross domestic product (GDP) growth. Global HFC emissions significantly exceed previous estimates after 2025 with developing country emissions as much as 800% greater than in developed countries in 2050. Global HFC emissions in 2050 are equivalent to 9-19% (CO(2)-eq. basis) of projected global CO(2) emissions in business-as-usual scenarios and contribute a radiative forcing equivalent to that from 6-13 years of CO(2) emissions near 2050. This percentage increases to 28-45% compared with projected CO(2) emissions in a 450-ppm CO(2) stabilization scenario. In a hypothetical scenario based on a global cap followed by 4% annual reductions in consumption, HFC radiative forcing is shown to peak and begin to decline before 2050.

Rheumatoid Arthritis Treatment
Treatments for rheumatoid arthritis in the hands range from nonsurgical treatments like anti-inflammatory medicines and lifestyle changes to a variety of surgical procedures designed to reduce pain and restore functionality to the affected areas in cases of severe pain and deformity.
Rheumatoid arthritis in the hands is a chronic autoimmune disease that causes inflammation of the joints. Autoimmune diseases occur when your body is attacked by its own immune system. Inflammation from rheumatoid arthritis can become so severe that the joints of your fingers are deformed, making it difficult to move them. Additionally, lumps, known as rheumatoid nodules, may form over the joints of your hands and wrist.
Nonsurgical Treatments for Rheumatoid Arthritis in the Hands
Nonsurgical treatments are initially recommended for less severe cases of rheumatoid arthritis. Rheumatoid arthritis is actually more often treated with medicine, exercise and lifestyle changes than with surgical procedures. These treatments can help relieve pain and swelling, slow down or prevent joint damage and increase your ability to function. These nonsurgical treatments for rheumatoid arthritis may include:
- Anti-inflammatory medicine – Medicines that reduce swelling, such as ibuprofen and naproxen, can be given to control symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis.
- Pain relievers – Aspirin, codeine and hydrocodone are some examples of pain-relieving medicines.
- Steroids – Corticosteroids control flare-ups and help to manage the disease.
- Lifestyle changes such as:
- Diet – Special diets along with vitamin supplements can be prescribed to help with symptoms.
- Exercise
- Physical therapy
Surgical Treatments for Rheumatoid Arthritis in the Hands
According to the American Society for Surgery of the Hand, surgical interventions should be appropriately timed in order to maximize function and minimize the deformity caused by rheumatoid arthritis. Sometimes preventive surgery may be recommended such as:
- Removal of nodules
- Removal of inflamed tissue (synovectomy) to decrease pressure on the joints and tendons
- Removal of bone spurs that may rub on tendons or ligaments
- Tendon transfers or grafts to repair ruptured tendons
In the most severe cases of rheumatoid arthritis, or when the patient doesn't respond to nonsurgical treatment, these surgical procedures may be recommended:
- Joint replacement – Also known as an arthroplasty, a joint replacement relieves pain and restores motion by realignment or total reconstruction of the affected joint. In some cases all or part of the joint is replaced by metal or plastic parts. This particular surgical treatment for rheumatoid arthritis in the hands will not cure the disease, but it can provide pain relief and restore functionality in the affected areas.
- Joint fusions – Also known as arthrodesis, this surgery joins selected bones in the hand or wrist to relieve severe pain and nerve problems resulting from rheumatoid arthritis of the hands.
Recovery time can vary from two weeks to several months, depending on the type of surgery and the severity of the disease.
Rehabilitation Services
The Rehabilitation Network of the North Shore-LIJ Health System is dedicated to providing you and your family with result-oriented, comprehensive rehabilitation services. Our goal is to help you and your loved ones find relief from pain and get moving again after an accident, illness, injury or surgery. We're your partner in a safe, healthy, more rapid recovery.

I placed it under plastic covers under the hood now.
With taking the car to some road courses and looking into autocross, I'm not 100% happy with trunk space. Plus I'm planning some trips in the near future.
kinda thinking Plexiglas floor with fans moving air. Stripping the larger amp and using it naked, along side of the PC, and figuring out somehow to move the smaller amp to the OEM amp space...
I'm up for suggestions.
Labor Day I will redo the amps and pc. While I'm still on the fence about using the Porsche engraved top again, I still went out to overstock on everything.
Here's the direction I'm headed.
I started by breaking down the old box.
stripping the pc/ amps
subwoofer amp and 4 channel amp
everything is out
mapping out new floor with a mach up of cardboard
Plus going to track days that box was an issue.
the box did well, but I wanted more trunk space.
once done i will add up total again... plus waiting on new 5.25 subwoofers will reuse Bose subwoofer box

|Mixed venous oxygen saturation monitoring during liver transplantation.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 8330596 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|High mixed venous oxygen saturation (SVO2) values due to limited oxygen extraction capacities are reported in some patients with severe liver disease. The aim of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of SVO2 monitoring to assess adequate oxygen supply in such patients scheduled for liver transplantation. Nineteen patients with oxygen extraction ratio below 12% were analysed and compared to 20 patients with a pre-operative ratio over 17%. The two groups were comparable with regard to initial pathology, preload and haemoglobin levels. SVO2 values measured discontinuously by co-oximetry were unaffected by the first part of surgery and the clamping period in patients with low oxygen extraction ratio. In these patients, SVO2 was never correlated to oxygen supply during the whole procedure whereas good correlation was noted before and after unclamping in the other group. Tissue hypoxia detected by a dependent oxygen consumption-oxygen supply relationship occurred at clamping and unclamping in patients with initial low oxygen extraction capacities. It is concluded that expensive SVO2 continuous monitoring may not be effective in reflecting changes in oxygen supply in anaesthetized patients with initial severely impaired oxygen extraction capacity.

Build a bare metal server with your choice of processor(s), hard drive configuration, RAM, port speed, and more.
Select the cores, storage, and RAM you need in your virtual server, and we'll deploy it in 5 to 15 minutes.
Scale your storage infrastructure on demand while controlling your costs with SoftLayer object storage.
Sunnyvale, CA—Jul. 15, 2010
Fortinet® – the pioneer and leading provider of unified threat management (UTM) solutions – today announced that SoftLayer Technologies, an on-demand data center provider, has deployed Fortinet FortiGate®-3810A multi-threat security systems at nationwide data centers to help secure customers' virtualized network and protect them from malicious Internet attacks.
SoftLayer's firewall offering provides customers with an essential layer of security that can be provisioned on demand without service interruptions. Security solutions and firewalls specifically, are a critical service offering for SoftLayer and its customers. A very reliable and highly scalable solution was mandatory to meet customer expectations.
Fortinet delivers virtualized network security through its Virtual Domain (VDOM) technology, and offers the ability to create up to 250 independent security domains on a single FortiGate-3810A security appliance. Network security virtualization, using Fortinet's VDOM feature, provides a separately provisioned and managed security domain for each of SoftLayer's customers, giving SoftLayer administrators flexibility in policy configuration and traffic management capabilities for each customer.
Fortinet's FortiGate-3810A multi-threat security systems are helping to provide customers with firewall protection and are deployed at multiple SoftLayer locations including their Dallas, Texas datacenter; the Seattle, Wash. datacenter; and the new Washington D.C. datacenter. Each FortiGate-3810A allows for up to 250 VDOMs, which enables SoftLayer to easily scale its business to meet the needs of additional customers while providing customers with their own security domain.
The VDOM functionality of the FortiGate systems allow for each virtualized security domain to be completely separated from other customer domains. SoftLayer indicated that its previous solution only allowed for partial separation of the domains which meant that when a distributed denial of service attack was launched, all virtualized domains could be affected. With Fortinet's solution, if a DoS attack is launched, only one domain would be affected resulting in more efficient network operations and reduced impact of these attacks on the customer servers.
"Since deploying the Fortinet solution at our nationwide data centers, we've been able to easily add new customers without having to bring on additional network resources," said Ric Moseley, vice president of Engineering at SoftLayer Technologies. "Fortinet's virtual domain functionality allows for us to easily scale and meet the rapidly growing needs of our business - all while saving costs and improving customer satisfaction."
"Fortinet is at the leading edge of security virtualization functionality," said Karl Soderlund, vice president of Americas sales and business development for Fortinet. "FortiGate systems can easily scale to meet the needs of enterprises of all sizes, but are highly cost efficient for enterprises and carriers because of the available 250 virtual domains on the higher end appliances."
