nProtect GameGuard (sometimes called GG) is an anti-cheating root toolkit developed by INCA Internet. It is installed alongside many Asian massively multiplayer online roleplaying games (MMORPGs) such as Rohan: Blood Feud, Lineage II, 9Dragons, Cabal Online, Phantasy Star Universe, GunZ: The Duel, Metin2, Flyff, Rappelz, Luna Online, PangYa, Prius Online, Ragnarok Online and Alliance of Valiant Arms to block possibly malicious applications and common methods of cheating. nProtect GameGuard provides B2B2C (Business to Business to Consumer) security services for online game companies and portal sites.
GameGuard hides the game application process, monitors the entire memory range, terminates applications defined by the game vendor and INCA Internet to be cheats (QIP for example), blocks certain calls to Direct X functions and Windows APIs, keylogs your keyboard input[citation needed], and auto-updates itself to change as new possible threats surface.
Since GameGuard essentially works like a rootkit, players may experience unintended and potentially unwanted side effects. Since the game's process cannot be stopped from the task manager, if the protected game has an infinite loop or hangs in any way, it is effectively impossible to close without logging out or restarting the computer. This is even more frustrating since GameGuard checks if it is already running on the game's launch and does not permit the player to start a new instance in such cases. If set, GameGuard blocks any installation or activation of hardware and peripherals (e.g., a mouse) while the program is running. Since GameGuard monitors any changes in the computer's memory, it will cause performance issues when the protected game loads multiple or large resources all at once.
GameGuard possesses a database on game hacks based on security references from more than 260 game clients. Some editions of GameGuard are now bundled with INCA Internet's Tachyon anti-virus/anti-spyware library, and others with nProtect Key Crypt, an anti-key-logger software that protects the keyboard input information.
GameGuard and X-Trap are explicitly preventing games to run on Windows 10 Technical Preview, even though the operating system is compatible and available for public testing since 1 October 2014.

Virtual slides are viewed using interactive software that enables the user to simulate the behaviour of a conventional optical microscope, like adjusting magnifications and navigating to any portion of the image. Nowadays, information about the performance and features of web-based solutions for reading slides in real environments is still scarce. The objective of this study is analyzing the subjective experience of pathologists with virtual slides, comparing the time needed to read slides using different web viewers and different network connections.
Eight slides were randomly selected (4 biopsies and 2 cytologies) from Hospital General de Ciudad Real (HGCR) archives. Three different virtual slide web-viewing solutions were analyzed: Aperio web server, Olympus NetImage Server, and Aurora mScope. Five pathologists studied to time needed to access images of each virtual slide, selecting a panoramic view, 10 low magnification fields, and 20 high magnification fields.
Aperio viewer is very efficient in overview images. Aurora viewer is especially efficient in lower magnifications (10×). For larger magnifications (20× and 40×) no significant differences were found between different vendors. Olympus was found to be the most user-friendly interface. When comparing Internet with intranet connections, despite being slower, users also felt comfortable using virtual slides through Internet connection.
Available web solutions for virtual slides have different advantages, mainly in functionalities and optimization for different magnifications. Pathologist should select the solutions adapted to their needs.

Dr. TerKonda – Trust Your Face to a Specialist
A true specialist – Dr. Raj TerKonda specializes in cosmetic and reconstructive surgery of the face and neck. He is one of a handful of surgeons in Colorado who have completed a fellowship in facial plastic and reconstructive surgery and is double board certified by both the American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and the American Board of Otolaryngology. He is also a Fellow of the prestigious American College of Surgeons (FACS). Dr. TerKonda gives his patients comprehensive care of the face, ranging from from noninvasive procedures such botox and fillers to full surgical rejuvenation for the aging face. He also performs reconstructive surgery for facial injuries, deformities, and skin cancers.
Blending art and science – Dr. TerKonda understands the relationship between facial structure, function, and aesthetics. He carefully evaluates the science behind new cosmetic procedures for safety and effectiveness before offering them to his patients. His philosophy on facial plastic surgery is to provide his patients with natural-appearing results – a rested and rejuvenated look, not a surgically altered appearance.
He prides himself on honesty and integrity – Dr. TerKonda is honest with patients about whether or not any specific procedure or surgery is necessary. He takes the necessary time to listen to his patients' concerns and to fully educate them about the their options. He focuses on his specialty and does not perform procedures outside of his area of expertise.
Patient safety is of prime importance. Dr. TerKonda performs all surgical procedures in a certified, state-of-the-art, surgery center or a hospital-based setting. Dr. TerKonda does not deliver your anesthesia, nor does he use nurse anesthetists for this very important task. Only board certified physicians (anesthesiologists) will deliver your anesthesia so that Dr. TerKonda can concentrate on your surgery to give you the best results possible.
Dr. Terkonda recently received the 2011 Patients' Choice award. This award honors physicians who have made a difference in the lives of patients. Each year hundreds of thousands of patients rate their doctors and those doctors who have near perfect scores on these patient evaluations are selected for the patients' choice award. Only 5% of all physicians in the US recieve this honor.
The Facial Rejuvenation Center
The Facial Rejuvenation Center is located in Longmont Colorado, inside the Longmont Clinic on the 3rd floor of the west building. A second office location is available in Lafayette on the Exempla Hospital campus in the Physician's Pavilion. Dr. TerKonda and his staff travel between the two offices to offer patients convenient options for care. The Facial Rejuvenation Center is your choice for expert care when you are considering any facial procedure.

Student protests shut down business as usual (VIDEO)
By Yael Chanoff, Nena Farrell, and Shawn Gaynor
Tuesday and Wednesday, Nov. 15 and 16, marked galvanizing student-led protests that shut down a Bank of America branch at Davis and California streets in San Francisco, prompted walk-outs and marches through the streets of Berkeley, and fed the momentum initiated by the Occupy Oakland and Occupy San Francisco encampments.
And although Occupy Cal's mini tent city at the University of California at Berkeley was removed in a 4 a.m. raid on Nov. 17, the youth in this growing movement show no signs of slowing down.
In San Francisco on Nov. 16, protesters from OccupySF joined with students from US campuses, city colleges, and California State University schools to launch a peaceful day of action that included a march from the OccupySF encampment to the California State building, with sit-in stops at downtown offices of corporations associated with several wealthy UC Regents.
The days' actions were the result of a last-minute change of plans. Students had been organizing for months for a day centered on the scheduled UC Regents meeting at the UCSF Mission Bay campus. The meeting was cancelled on November 14, citing potential violent disruptions. Organizers from the group Occupy Education decided instead to march, rally, and occupy in San Francisco's financial district.
"The 1% on the Board of Regents cancelled their meeting because we demanded they do the people's business. So now we're going to where they do Wall Street's business," an official statement from Occupy Education noted.
The march left from the encampment site, renamed Bradley Manning Plaza by some occupiers, around 1 p.m. About 500 students, OccupySF participants and supporters marched along the Embarcadero, chanting "Whose university? Our university!" and "No cuts, no fees, education must be free."
Around 2:20, the march stopped at the Bank of America branch at California and Davis. There, about 200 entered the building. Protesters held doors open as employees pushed back. One woman speaking into a cell phone yelled "This is private property! Get away!"
The bank's main room soon filled with protesters who stood on chairs, desks and other furniture, chanted slogans, and pounded on drums. Several gave speeches decrying UC Regents with large salaries and their involvement in fee hikes. Said organizer David Solnit, "If they occupy our education, we occupy their banks!"
The final arrests were made shortly before 7 p.m. Video by Rebecca Bowe
Organizers singled out Monica Lozano, UC Regent and member of the Bank of America board of directors, as one of the reasons for targeting the Bank of America. Fliers explaining the reason to target Lozano said, "We hear it every day. There's no more money. No money to keep college affordable…make Wall Street corporations and the super-rich pay, including those who sit on our schools' and universities' boards."
The protesters remained peaceful while inside the building. Some scrawled messages on file cabinets in white chalk.
Around 2:40, at the Davis Street bank entrance, protesters formed a circle in front of the door, in front of police who were guarding the door. OccupySF participant Amy O told the Guardian, "My arms were in peace signs and I had inserted myself in between a yelling police officer and an overly aggressive protester. Then more police came up from behind me. They pulled my hoodie and I was thrown to the ground…there was no warning and I fell hard on my elbow. My hands were up in the air."
Craig Rouskey was involved in the same incident. He says he was shocked when, without warning, police "jumped into the crowd and started beating people over the head with batons." Rouskey named "Officer Turvis" as the specific police officer involved in beating protesters with batons.
After this incident, which to stem from police efforts to clear the space in front of the door, about 100 protesters moved into the space and staged a sit-in outside the bank, while several hundred more looked on, blocking the street.
All other police-protester interaction was calm. Those inside the bank sat in, spoke out and played music for about an hour until police began to arrest. Then, as officers processed each arrestee individually, the process of removing them from the bank took over four hours. A total of 95 arrests were made.
The last relic of the sit-in to go was a tent protesters had pitched inside the bank. The tent is now being auctioned on Ebay, and the current bid is at $255.
Around 3 p.m., the march continued on Market to its final destination -- the State Building on Golden Gate and Larkin streets – while several dozen remained at the Bank of America branch to support those sitting in. The march ended with a speak-out in front of the building, where students and other supporters talked about how University budget cuts have affected them and their families. Several students said they would not be able to afford continued schooling if proposed UC budget cuts, which include an 89 percent increase over the next four years, move forward.
Destiny Iwuoma, a first-year student at UC Berkeley with a double major in Legal Studies and African American Studies and a minor in Education who has also participated in Occupy Cal, was proud of the day's participants. "I think the people inside the Bank of American are pretty brave," he said.
Occupy protests around the Bay Area are working in tandem and relying on each other, Iwuoma said. "Buses from Occupy Cal left to support OccupySF. Occupy Oakland and SF came to support Occupy Cal. We're supporting each other."
A day earlier, the East Bay city of Berkeley was besieged with student protests. A day packed with rallies, marches, speakers, and a general assembly that drew thousands at the end of the day to UC Berkeley marked the Nov. 15 student strike and Day of Action called in response to a police crackdown less than a week earlier. Hundreds filled Sproul Plaza for a 2 p.m. rally. Honest Cheung, one of the 39 Berkeley students to be arrested after the first attempt to set up tents, condemned the campus police's excessive use of force against student protesters. "When they increase our debt, they increase their profit! And that is why they use violence," Cheung said. "What kind of democracy do we live in when peaceful protestors are met with violence?"
Students moved to an intersection off campus to hear Robert Slaughter, a black student from St Mary's College, describe how he beaten by police and arrested with 38 others, but was the only one charged with a felony and held on $15,000 bail.
A mass of students then marched down Bancroft Street, stopping traffic on Shattuck Avenue. They circled the streets around Berkeley High and made stops in front of Berkeley High and the Berkeley Civic Center, chanting, "Who's university? Our university!" "Tell me what democracy looks like! This is what democracy looks like!" "Banks got bailed out, we got sold out."
At the high school, they chanted, "UC Berkeley, Berkeley High, hella hella Occupy," and "Education is a right, Berkeley High is hella tight."
By 4:30, the crowd had returned as a huge mass to Sproul Plaza. Protesters from Occupy Oakland arrived soon after, en masse, waving around a tent on a stick to announce their presence. After that, they had people sit down to form the General Assembly. After many mic checks and early announcements, they handed out agendas and announced the details of an afternoon shooting that occurred at Haas School of Business.
Someone stood and announced that a lawsuit would be filed against campus police for targeting protesters with excessive force Nov. 9. Occupy Cal plans to hold general assemblies at Sproul Plaza each night at 6 p.m. (Their Twitter feed is here)
The crowd continued to swell, and perhaps ten thousand people crammed into the plaza for the general assembly. They voted to re-establish the occupation of the plaza, and to demand an end to the wave of tuition hikes and funding cuts that have put higher education beyond the reach of many Californians.
"I believe words have the power to create change," Said Jeanie Shoumacer, 47, an undergrad student who'd brought her 5-year-old son along for the civics lesson. "We must not let this end," she urged the crowd, speaking from the steps of Sproul Hall. "We cannot give up."
Berkeley's Free Speech Movement began at Sproul Plaza. Signs of free speech activist Mario Savio had been set up with a sign reading, "This is Our History." Speakers were flanked by banners that read, "Free education for all," and "Defend public education."
Morgan Crawford, a Berkeley student, had participated in the protests a week prior. "I was beaten last week," he said. "I could hardly walk. I'm back here to speak in favor of re-establishing the encampment. Our voices will be heard, and when the police return to beat us into submission, stand strong, and stand together."
Senior Andrea Barrera was one of the meeting facilitators. "We stand in solidarity with all the people in the world who are struggling with the system that we are working so hard to defeat," she said.
The general assembly was run on a model of participatory democracy. Issues were presented, debated in small groups, and then voted on by everyone present. Friendly amendments were recorded, votes tallied, and proposals passed under a system that required an 80 percent super-majority to go forward. Though chaotic at times, Occupy activists were able to address and pass several resolutions in just over an hour – a display of efficiency.
"We don't just organize," Barrera said. "We communize. We work together."

I don't play it much, but my 60-year old mom does and she has lost 10 pounds in 1 month! Of course she has also been watching her diet and all, but this game has played a big part in her slimming down.
What this game does great is give her the ability to choose a monthly workout schedule which not only gives her the guidance she needs, but keeps her interested by mixing it up with a nice variety of excercises. Seriously, who cares if the wiimote doesn't work perfectly in sync with the game like other games? I think that's really missing the point. The point of the game is fitness, and this is way better than the alternative of watching an aerobic video with no interactive element. I think of this game as a programmable workout/aerobic exercise video/trainer that not only creates workout regimens for you but also tracks your progress. The game would work even without the wiimote. I'm so happy I gave this title a try... and it only cost me $12!… Full Review »

Mourinho: Failure is the coach's faultComment on this story
Madrid - Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho expects to take the blame instead of his players if they fail to overturn a 4-1 deficit against Borussia Dortmund in their Champions League semi-final second leg on Tuesday.
Mourinho was hired from Inter Milan three years ago to help Real win the 10th European crown that has eluded them since 2002, but the La Liga side are on the brink of a third straight failure at the last-four stage under his stewardship.
"In practically all football clubs, success belongs to everyone, but failure is always the fault of the coach," the Portuguese said on Monday. "I am perfectly calm because I know that is the situation.
"There are fantastic coaches in football, who have never won the Champions League, I have won two, for which I must thank God. But I will continue to fight for a third."
Mourinho, who won Europe's elite club competition with Porto in 2004 and Inter in 2010, again had to answer questions about his future, amid speculation he will leave Real at the end of the season, despite having a contract until 2016.
Some reports have said he is poised to rejoin Chelsea, where he failed to win the Champions League, and that Real had lined up Paris St-Germain coach Carlo Ancelotti as replacement.
"If you want to know about contacts between Real Madrid and Ancelotti, you have to ask Madrid, not me," Mourinho said.
Asked whether Tuesday's game could be his last home match for Real in the Champions League, he added: "I feel that this could be the most important match for Real Madrid in the last 10 years. But I felt the same thing before we played in Dortmund, and we played there as if it was a friendly."
Mourinho said he was not surprised that Dortmund, who won the Champions League in 1997, were challenging for another European crown.
He predicted a bright future for the club, despite the imminent departure of midfielder Mario Goetze to Bundesliga rivals Bayern Munich, and the possible exit of striker Robert Lewandowski.
"I have thought Dortmund were a candidate to win the competition from the beginning of the season," Mourinho said. "Last season, they had a year of adaptation when they were not successful in the group phase, but it's not a surprise to me that they are where they are."

Rated 5 out of 5 by brad94 Very Relaxing! Great stay really enjoyed everything about this hotel. I felt very well cared for. November 20, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5 by Russ2015 Facility restaurant and HC accessibility I'd give an overall "GOOD" rating to the facility. Only two things keep me from giving an "EXCELLANT" rating: 1. I booked last February and asked for a handicapped accessible room. Upon our arrival I found the hotel was aware of the request but booked us into a room that was not accessible. After four requests, I finally received a temporary ramp at the front step. The bath tub made showering access difficult. 2. Most all meals were terrific except for one dinner at the French restaurant. My son ordered the dinner special which was Mahi- Mahi. When served, the portion was EXTREMELY small. The fish served was the size of a frozen dinner fish stick and the vegetables were nearly non-existant. Very disappointing. It's my opinion the chef forgot why we were there- to eat dinner, not to admire his food artwork (though very nice). A larger, more reasonable portion should have been served. Other than these two issues the facility and it's staff are top notch. October 5, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Heidiam Most Wonderful Staff Ever I travel extensively and every time I stay with the Westin Playa Conchal (this was my 3rd stay), I am impressed by the level of hospitality, welcoming smiles and genuine care and concern they show for all of our guests. On this trip we brought 4 other families with us and we were located throughout the resort, so had a wonderful amount of personal time as well as planned events and dinners to share with our friends and their families. The staff was always very accommodating, even with children. I highly recommend making dinner reservations the day you arrive for the duration of your stay! August 31, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by abmunoz Great experience What a relaxing and wonderful experience we had at the Westin in Playa Conchal, Costa Rica. The hotel was beautifully kept, food was excellent, and service impeccable. We can't wait to come back. August 27, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Danise877 Absolutely Wonderful A little drive from the airport, but I didn't mind at all being able to sight see. The resort was ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL! I recommend for families, couples, or just a girls getaway. The staff was friendly & so courteous - we were treated so well. The food & drinks were great and had lots of variety. We loved the easy access to the beach, just outside the gate. Loved our stay! Will definitely go back! August 25, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by MichaelTNYC Loved every minute of it This Westin is world class. I really enjoyed my stay here. Everything in my room was clean and the service I received was phenomenal. Looking forward to my next stay. July 20, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by WJBNole Fantastic Service / Great Value We stayed here the first week of June. The rainy season wasn't a negative (they're in a drought), but it was a positive because the staff wasn't too busy. We checked in about an hour early (nice). The concierge for tower 2 said he'd be by the room in a few minutes, but he didn't show. It turns out his shift ended at 3 and he was about to get some time off. The hand off to the 3PM concierge was dropped. But the new guy, Jeffrey, stepped right in and arranged restaurant reservations and called in a technician to fix the wifi (needed a router) once we brought the situation to his attention. Jeffrey was AWESOME!! Jeffrey then moved to mornings and Errol took the afternoons. Both Jeffrey and Errol were AWESOME!! Exemplary employees. The evening concierge at the Royal Club Lounge was also spectacular (I didn't get his name but he knew mine). Everybody on staff was friendly and helpful. These Westin employees know the meaning of service. I read a few complaints about the food before the trip. I have no complaints. We tried most of the restaurants, and enjoyed every meal and had terrific service. My only gripe is that the premium wines by the bottle were expensive. With tax and service the cost would be about 4X the retail price in the States. The house red was OK at best. Certainly not a good pairing with the fantastic food. A day trip to Nicaragua duty free shop allowed me to buy some decent red wine for $20 a bottle. The Royal Beach towers were closing the day after we left for renovations. The property is staying a step ahead of the game. As is, we had no complaints about our room or the pool area. Thank you for a great week! June 7, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by Mauna Amazing all inclusive Westin We had an amazing time in Costa Rica staying at the Westin. The food was great at all the restraunts and the staff is very friendly and helpful. May 5, 2015

November 25, 2015
NEW ORLEANS (AP) - More dirty evidence of the massive oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico has been washing ashore.
A large patch of oil has oozed into Mississippi Sound. Those fertile waters between the mainland and barrier islands had mostly been spared the effects of the spill until now.
Farther east, officials closed a quarter-mile of Pensacola beach yesterday as thick pools of oil washed up. It marked the first time that a Florida beach has been closed because of the spill.
Statements from BP that it will be able to collect more of the oil still gushing from the ruptured well are being met with skepticism, especially after this week's setback. The cap siphoning the leaking oil had to be removed and repositioned.

Love & Hip Hop star, Chrissy Lampkin made hip hop history when she swallowed her pride and asked her long time boyfriend, Jim Jones to marry her. Women everywhere voiced their concerns for Chrissy's proposal, thinking that when a woman has to ask for a man's hand in marriage, the man usually isn't all that ready to wed his main squeeze.

However, a few episodes after Chrissy proposed, Jim surprised his honey in Miami (while she was away complaining about him) to propose to her, thus assuring her that he does want to spend the rest of his life with her. But since Jim bit the bullet on that one, we've all been patiently waiting for them to actually marry.
Well, the wait is over. Sources say that the two lovebirds jumped the broom over the weekend while celebrating Chrissy's birthday in Miami, however the reports are still unconfirmed.

Jessica Chastain attends the 2013 Maui Film Festival on June 15 in Wailea, Hawaii. / Christopher Polk, Getty Images for Maui Film Festi
Perhaps Jessica Chastain is taking a page from the Beyoncé & Jay-Z guide to being a private celebrity. The Oscar-nominated actress tells E! she makes a point of not discussing her love life with the media.
"Sometimes when someone (in the press) asks me about my dating status, I get really quiet about that because I want to protect it," says Chastain, who's dating Italian fashion executive Gian Luca Passi de Preposulo.
"When I'm engaged someday - who knows to who - I'll probably be more open about it."
Chastain adds that she's learned from the mistakes of her blabbermouthed fellow stars who gush about their of-the-moment soulmates, only to break up shortly after the article runs.
"Seeing all these interviews with actors talking about loves of their lives and then they break up in a year and you're thinking, 'What if something happens and they end up being a total jerk?' " she reasons. "Then you forever have these pictures of you standing on the red carpets together."

WINDHAM, N.H. — Marie E. (Loizzo) Nolan, 89, of Windham, NH, passed away peacefully in her sleep on Sunday, January 6, 2013. Marie had been living in New Hampshire for the last couple of years but she was born in Springfield, MA, and had spent most of her life there.
Marie was the daughter of the late Pasquale and Stella (Luvera) Loizzo and was educated in the Springfield schools. For many years, Marie spent her summers on her beloved Cape Cod, where her many long beach-walks often inspired her paintings and poignant poetry.
Besides her parents, she was predeceased by her loving husband, James D. Nolan, Jr. on October 29, 2008, and two brothers, Frank Loizzo and Albert Loizzo. Marie was the loving mother of three children, William Nolan of Northampton, MA, Thomas Nolan and his wife Constance of Windham, NH, and Kathleen Nolan-Cote of Florida, and the devoted grandmother of two grandchildren, Alyssa and Andrew Nolan. Also surviving Marie are numerous nieces and nephews. Marie will be very sadly missed.
The services and burial took place in Saint Michael's Cemetery in Springfield, MA, this past Saturday, January 12th.
For those who wish, memorial donations in Marie's name may be made to the Alzheimer's Association, Massachusetts/New Hampshire Chapter, 480 Pleasant Street, Watertown, MA 02472.
A memorial Mass for Marie will be announced at a later date. Tazzini Funeral Home was entrusted with the Arrangments.

CD-RW.org the best known place for discussing CD-R media brands has had very few users in the CD-R(W) media forum lately so I thought it would be a good idea to start a new, more accurate thread for dead CD-R media at HA whether it's a success will depend on the users.
If you have more than one brand feel free to post them all.
Use CDR Identifier or Nero Info Tool to identify the real CD-R manufacturer also specify the CD-R manufacturer on the case, box or spindle, drive used to burn, speed, color of the CD-R & burn date would also be useful
CD-R quality can be measured using,
(!) Tops are reported to peel with time
This list may change depending on future findings
DVD-R Armour is a solution for those who find DVD media too delicate (scratches easily), newer DVD-R Armour discs also provide extra UV protection.
The OSTA.org (Optical Storage Technology Association) site has some very useful information & can answer many of your CD-R questions.

after I occasionally found this thread, I decided to join the party:
Recently I have reburned some 4+ year old CD-Rs due to read errors. I kept the originals though. So I fired up CDRidentifier and here are the results: (They fit quite nicely with the list at the beginning)
The worst of all CDs with lots of C2 and quite some CU errors was... CMC Magnetics (guessed that? )
Next worst was LeadData, directly followed by AMS Technologies (never heard of them). Those AMS discs were sold under the Tevion/Lifetec brand in german supermarket chain ALDI.
Another disk I backed up (more out of fear that all my old CDs are crap now) was a Ritek but it was still perfectly readable (6,3avg/40max C1,no C2 or CU).
All discs (except one) were burnt with an old trusty PX-820i SCSI burner. They were stored in jewelcases (and therefore dark) under normal environmental conditions (not like Pio's )

November 27, 2015
Google is known for its search engine and income generating targeted ads but they are also a company who loves to innovate and create technologies to solve simple to complex problems.
Yesterday, when I was browsing through the internet, I came across an article regarding Google's new project, "cars that can drive themselves". In a blog post, Google announced that it has developed a technology for cars to drive themselves without the aid of humans and that they already have logged over 140,000 miles of test runs. These cars are modified Toyota Prius (pictured above) and an Audi TT.
The goal "is to help prevent traffic accidents, free up people's time and reduce carbon emissions by fundamentally changing car use."
But how does this thing work? Google also revealed in their blog that:
"Our automated cars use video cameras, radar sensors and a laser range finder to "see" other traffic, as well as detailed maps (which we collect using manually driven vehicles) to navigate the road ahead. This is all made possible by Google's data centers, which can process the enormous amounts of information gathered by our cars when mapping their terrain."
Google also explained that the cars were manned by trained operators for safety purposes. The cars were tested from their headquarters in Mountain View, to Santa Monica and to Hollywood Boulevard.
This is definitely a breakthrough but I don't think car enthusiasts will let the computer do the driving. But not always, I suppose. Am I right?
Here's how the car looks like in action: (video by Robert Scoble; January 2010)

CARSON CITY, Nev. — Walter Samaszko Jr. was a loner whose death went largely unnoticed. That all changed when a crew sent to clean out his house found a fortune stashed away in the garage of his modest ranch-style home.
There were ammunition boxes stuffed with thousands of gold coins, from Austria, Mexico and the United States. There was enough gold to fill up two wheelbarrows — more than $7.4 million worth.
"There was every kind of coin you could think of," said Alan Glover, the Carson City clerk and the public administrator of the estate who borrowed a neighbor's wheelbarrow to haul the treasure out.
City officials searched through records to find an heir: a substitute teacher in the San Francisco Bay Area who a judge declared Tuesday was Samaszko's lone surviving first cousin.
The decision means Arlene Magdanz of San Rafael, Calif., is a millionaire. She didn't attend the hearing and, so far, has not said anything publicly about her newfound fortune.

Great Pics Steve.....glad too see it does open!
Heres a collection of pics i took up at the old Snitterfield airfield near to Stratford Upon Avon.
The airfield doesn't have a huge story to tell history-wise and was used mainly as a satellite for Church Lawford with Oxfords from 18 PAFU and 1533 Flt also flight training with Harvards from 21 FTS.
Today it's still very much active with the Stratford Gliding Club using a section of the airfield. Many thanks to them for there freindliness and allowing me to wander around the peri's and runway remains.
The club house,modern hangars and other buildings are all standing on what was the head of one of the intersecting runways -
End of the other intersecting runway. It is reduced to a single lane further up
A couple from the technical site -
Transformer building -
I'm not sure who is responsible for this sign as it leads into private land with CCTV/No tresspassers notices everywhere. Perhaps the original airfield enterance?? Although both the gate and sign don't seem to be in the right place on the airfields perimeter.
The gliding club in action over on the far side -
A nice place to have a look around although from what i can work out there isn't much still standing or surviving. A lot of building foundations around the place, a few M/E plinths and i was told that the bomb dumps are still intact. I didn't have time for a proper look in there.
Great Pics Steve.....glad too see it does open!
There is a cottage named Airfield Farm on the one of the roads around the site,maybe they are the owners?.
Great photos Steve, good to see another airfield that hasn't been previously coved too.
Thanks Rich.
My mission to post up the lesser known sites on AiX continues
I did find Airfield Farm but it's right on the other side of the airfield in the old technical site quite a big distance away from the RAF Snitterfield sign and enterance.
Snitterfield was the home of 1533 Beam Approach Training Flight c.1944. Its SBA Main Beacon plinth is extant.
Guy wire blocks
This is very rare! It's located HERE, also in BING
To the south of the plinth are some skeet ranges belonging to the Stratford Armouries which are located to the south of the airfield. Worth a visit, though their web site is down at present.

Bugger!! Looks like i turned back before reaching these lil' beauties. Great pics Graham.
That sign for 'RAF Snitterfield' is the next enterance after the Armouries Museum enterance actually. Just a bit further down the road. I wonder if it's museum related??? Either way it doesnt look like un-invited guests are welcome.
Last edited by stevie; 03-06-2010 at 00:11.
Yes it is museum related Steve as there are buildings around the museum land labelled in a similar way I'll post a couple up later, I went for one of my battle re-enactment weekends this weekend and found myself camping next to the peritrack.

1995-02-18 Oscar De La Hoya w pts 12 John John Molina, MGM Grand, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA - WBO
1995-02-18 Oscar De La Hoya w pts 12 John John Molina, MGM Grand, Las Vegas, Nevada, USA - WBO. Referee: Mills Lane. Scorecards: 116-111, 117-110, 116-111. Enjoying a huge advantage in height and reach, De La Hoya (135) not only proved he could do the distance but also proved his worth when making a successful defence against a man who was a former IBF junior lightweight champion. Getting away well De La Hoya dropped Molina (134) with a left-hook counter in the first, and from then on the champion was held at every opportunity as he looked to get his punches off. By the middle rounds it had become very scrappy, but Molina then went on to have his better moments in the fight, doing well with left uppercuts and rights to head and body, before De La Hoya came back strongly with explosive combinations to wrap up the decision.

Hatch Act of 1933
The Hatch Act is designed to prevent Federal government employees from engaging in certain political activities, such as influencing elections and running for office as a member of a political party. The Act also applies to state and local government employees who work in programs financed with Federal loans or grants, and to nonprofit organizations that are part of the Head Start program or that receive Community Service Block Grants.
For a discussion of the Hatch Act, see the Political Activity section of the U.S. Office of Special Council web site. The site also explains how to file a Hatch Act complaint and how to request an Advisory Opinion as to whether the Act applies in a particular situation.
Statutes: The bulk of the Hatch Act is codified at 5 U.S.C. §§7321-7326, covering Federal employees. State and local employees are addressed at 5 U.S.C. §§ 1501-1508. The Hatch Act is made applicable for Head Start programs at 42 U.S.C. § 9851(a) and for organizations receiving Community Service Block Grants at 42 USC 9918(b).
Regulations: Hatch Act regulations are codified at 5 CFR §§ 733-734."
Cases: You can find cases using print or electronic editions of the annotated United States Code (see "United States Code"). You could also pull the Shepard's report or KeyCite for the Code sections of interest (see Shepardizing).
Merit Systems Protection Board: The U.S. Merit Systems Protection Board (MSPB) decides whether the Hatch Act has been violated. MSPB posts a searchable database of decisions, or you can search through all the available MSPB materials at once.
MSPB decisions are available on Lexis from 1979 to the present (LABOR;MSPB). The database includes both decisions of the Board and decisions of MSPA Administrative Law Judges (ALJs).
Westlaw has several MSPA databases, including: the "Personet MSPA Multibase" (PNET-MSPB), with both Board decisions and MSPA-related judicial opinions for cases appealed from the MSPA; the "Merit System Protection Board" database (FLB-MSPB), with Board and ALJ decisions; and the MSPA Court Cases database (MSPB-CS), with just opinions from appealed cases.
Office of Special Counsel: The U.S. Office of Special Counsel (OSC) prosecutes Hatch Act cases before the MSPB. As mentioned above, the OSC posts information about the Hatch Act, including how to file a Hatch Act complaint. More information is available in the Hatch Act section of the OSC's online Reading Room.
The OSC issues formal and informal Advisory Opinions. Selected Advisory Opinions are available on the OSC web site. As mentioned above, the OSC web site explains how to request an Advisory Opinion by phone or in writing.

Politics Counts
"Obama Derides"
Story of this sad politicians life.....
Sketchy deal? Yeah, his plan has been a real winner, eh?
If we want to get the deficit under control, we need to start with a 20% across the board tax cut, increase defense spending, and really pull together with confidence.
We do not know what the plan is for the President but we know what he has done in the past.
We know some of the things Romney will do and those look better than what the President has done.
So given that information, I see how any small business person or someone working for a small business would naturally vote for Romney. He is after all very pro small business. And with 80% of all new jobs coming from small business I see clearly how we get out of this mess but pumping up small business.
Obama has no plan which is why he has to deride Romney's. Unless you call wasting more money on more Solyndra's and A123's a plan.
This guy doesn't get it. If we reduce taxes more for everyone, even a greater % of people will not be paying any federal income tax....even more than 47%. The only reason Obama wants to reduce taxes for everyone is to increase the number of people that are moochers. Why anyone would want even fewer taxpayers is beyond me. Go Romney.
Re-elect Obama and you'll get a raw deal.
Gents, I jes' wanna gander at dem ladies binders.
& Obama's plan is the "invisible deal"...
A 'sketchy' deal is still better than a raw deal.
Buh-bye Barry!
WHAT CNN is HIDING! Although Candy was mostly fair, CNN is still in the Obama tank big time. Anyone who stayed up after 12AM saw the most critical polls that cannot now be found on CNN.com- anywhere. After Blizter presented the following instant polls; John King CNN said "if these numbers don't dramatically change ROMNEY WINS the election!"
- Obama 48%, Romney 45% - Overall winner
- Romney 50%, Obama 36% - Better handle the deficit
- Romney 58%, Obama 40% - Better job on the economy
- Romney 51%, Obama 44% - Better handle taxes
- Romney 49%, Obama 46% - Better job on health care
- Romney 48%, Obama 45% - Strongest leader
John King is the only one on CNN that tells it like it is, but apparently the big boys still prevail , but this reflects the true mood of voters. Romney rolls!
Where are the loopholes you will close Mitt? Where are they. YOU do not and will not tell us 1 single loophole you will close. You only fool the foolish!
Wow Mitt looked horrible last night. No smart women would ever vote for that loser
Sketchy is too kind. Romney plan is Bush Redo. Horse and swallow ideas. If you give well bred horse the oats some of the undigested oarts will fall behind for the swallow to pick out of the horses dung. its called GOPs "eat" s*7t" plan.
The share the 1% pay doesn't change under this plan. The may get less deductions but they pay no more than before. I guess all those millions his billionare friends are gving him have convinced him to stick with the Leona Helmley tax plan" Only the poor pay taxes".
Romeny has made so many vague promises who know what he will do.
He has the framework ready to plug the numbers with the consensus of congress, not an executive order that Obama seems is the answer to everything he cannot drive any consensus on. Let's go with the Obama plan to tax the rich that will only operate the government for a few weeks, yeah that will work, just borrow the rest from China. Go ahead and continue to hope and spend with the media made amateur.
If I were Romney, I'd eliminate the state tax deduction. Unpopular yes, but it's gonna hurt those high tax blue states more. You know, the ones who won't vote for the R&R boys. Payback's a b*$ch, isn't it?
Obama: "I have no plan, but I know I don't like his plan." Moron.
If Obama is give another four years, be prepared!
I am very concerned about our international policies and the coverups that are going on behind the scenes.
The Obama tax plan is encompassed in Obamacare which taxes you for your choices or no choices, Capital Gains, a surtax on real estate sales, tanning salons all the while pushing the union membership drive for doctors and nurses.
what about O'blamO etch sketch with Libya .... first a video now a terror attack ... no longer the fault of this poor guy in CA but the Prez fault .... after he realized hiding behind Hillary doesn't look to good
Be honest - who in this country really cares about Libya. People worry about whats happing here.
Go Obama
Sir the people sampled in CNN's poll, the majority were republicans. Please do your full research.
It's all Hillary's fault, ya see..
That's what you do when you have a horrible record
Actually it was a 33% share of republicans and democrats. The majority was non-affiliated at 34%. Please take your own advice
"who in this country really cares about Libya"
The families of the 4 people who died in Libya can start that very long list. Good god you libs will forgive anything the 10% president does.
"I'd eliminate the state tax deduction. Unpopular yes, but it's gonna hurt those high tax blue states more." But keep the federal tax for those mooching red states right?
Roy, you are an idiot and need the crap beaten out of you for saying that.
Today, The President had a rally at Cornell College in Mount Vernon, Iowa. To a group of educated people all he could do was rant, rave, ridicule, and spiel lies and falsehoods about Governor Romney's ideas and plans.
Is this what Democrats are voting for? The same Obama spiel that got them in this economic mess today?
Does the President not have his own plan, ideas, and a vision for our future? All the President can do is talk negatively about the Governor.
The President is bringing nothing to our future. Barack Obama has become so much more unpresidential over the year, and his behavior, tone, and abrasiveness when he speaks to his opponnet, his audience, a debate/town hall/rally is so unprofessional.
America deserves better. Vote.
I have been reading and researching and fact checking. This election has my complete attention. In 2008 it was the same but not many people wanted to talk about the facts then. They just wanted to listen to a junior senator's charismatic rhetoric who had little leadership experience, little poltical service time, and no finance/business experience. Look where that got us.
The bottom line is the economy. We all know it needs to be fixed.
The President has been unsuccessful in getting this done. It bothered me that the President seemed so clueless about anything that had to do with money, pensions, investments, and balancing budgets, especially his own money.
It bothered me that the President has presented no clear and present plan for the future of our country.
Governor Romey has a proven success record in MA for his four year term. He showed how to get things done and make a budget work for its people. Romney has a five point plan and an expansion of economic growth plan and jobs plan laid out that will come from these five points. I have read all of it.
My vote is going to the one who has proven he can create jobs, deal with finances, and know the long term consequences of his decisions and policies. If it gets me a pension plan too, than so be it.
Vote for Romney/Ryan.
Massachusetts resident
Disappointed in the Lack of Leadership from the President:
One runnning theme of the past four years is our commander-in-chief sidestepping and hiding from taking responsibility for when things which went awry or didn't go 'his' way.
Senator Obama used the words, "I" and "Me" and My" repeatedly during his 2008 campaign. Strange how the American people didn't hear this why they were being serenaded by his charisma.
Now, during his tenure as our President, he continued to use "I" and "Me" and "My".
I hear the President use the blame game; "saying that wasn't my idea, saying I was against that but they didn't listen to me, saying I couldn't get them to listen to me, saying I was for that but they didn't support me" etc....
I thought America was about "We" and "Us" and "Our"?
It is totally amazing listening to these regressive Romney supporters going into great detail about how Romney is sooo much better than the president on the economy. How they have arrived at this fantastic story is a mystery. Romney has no great economic record applicable to the average America wring person, in fact everything he has ever done has exploited the average worker to their detriment all for the profitability of Romney. He was one of the worst governors in the country, leaving Massachusetts with over a billion in debt and a hideous job growth record there. He only saved the Utah Olympics with one of the largest billion dollar tax payer bailouts that went to building roads to his friends luxury resorts. He has outsourced jobs to China ( he even outsourced Olympic uniforms to a brutal dictator in Burma) and has invested through China in supporting Iran. In all his years at Bain he never advanced one women to a significant position and he hired women, when governor, only when forced (thus the binders were handed to him as he did not request it) in mediocre positions. Romney has lied in two civic debated for the presidency and acted like a rich spoiled brat both times. Romney has contradicted himself so many times it is creating record migraines in both parties. And yet, he promises free ice cream and a unicorn for everyone and the regressive's faint in absolute ecstasy on his very word. Sad, pathetic.
Romney is trying to bulls-it his way to the White House.
Bottom line is that oil production on ALL Federal lands has DECREASED under the Obama Administration... While the price of GAS has gone up 100%! So how's that "Hope and Change" thingy working for you?
Romney promises to cut the deficit in half in his first term since he knows all American idiots will fall for that garbage....he promises to party with jayzee & celebrity millionaires while claiming to care about the mules & workers in America because American idiots eat that crap up.....he promises to take 10 minutes every day before golf to try to make America better....Romney promises to make sure he gives billions to companies who plan to go bankrupt immediately, taking every cent.
I doubt Romney wins because no one would vote for a potus with that crap agenda,

|Effects of combination therapy with Renin-Angiotensin system inhibitors and eicosapentaenoic Acid on IgA nephropathy.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 23318848 Owner: NLM Status: In-Data-Review
|Objective The beneficial effects of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitors (RASI) and the omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) on IgA nephropathy (IgAN) have been reported. However, it is unknown whether these agents have any synergistic interactions. Methods We divided 38 IgAN patients into two groups: an EPA group (n=18) treated with RASI plus EPA and a DILAZEP group (n=20) treated with RASI plus dilazep dihydrochloride. We analyzed the clinical and histological background of each patient, any relevant clinical findings obtained one year after treatment and any factors significantly related to decreases in proteinuria. Results The clinical findings were largely similar between the groups, except for body mass index (24.9±4.5 in the EPA group vs. 21.4±2.1 in the DILAZEP group, p=0.0041) and total cholesterol (median: 206.0 vs. 177.5 mg/dL, p=0.0493). The histological findings, evaluated according to the Oxford classification, were also similar between the groups. At one year after treatment, the EPA group demonstrated a significantly decreased mean blood pressure (from 94.7±9.0 to 86.4±7.2 mmHg, p=0.0007) and a significantly decreased median level of proteinuria (from 0.80 to 0.41 g/g creatinine, p<0.001). In the DILAZEP group, the mean blood pressure significantly decreased (from 95.2±13.2 to 88.1±7.7 mmHg, p<0.001) without any significant decrease in the median level of proteinuria (from 0.88 to 0.60 g/g creatinine). According to a multivariate logistic analysis, EPA was found to be the only independent factor related to decreases in proteinuria (odds ratio = 5.073, 95% CI: 1.18-26.7, p=0.0285). Conclusion We conclude that EPA accelerates the effects of RASI and thus decreases the proteinuria observed in patients with IgAN.

Veritas Forum
Thursday, February 19 and Friday, February 20, 2105
What is a Veritas Forum? http://www.veritas.org/
In 1952, Kelly Monroe, a visiting student at Harvard became curiously interested in the fact that, even though the students there were extremely bright, they felt isolated in their search for meaning and truth. She saw this as a striking disconnect as the original Harvard motto, "Veritas Christo et ecclesiae" specifically dealt with the search for truth. She organized a group of interested students and invited noted speakers to address them on topics pertaining to a search for truth. (Dr. Jennifer Weismann, ex-director of NASA's current exo-planet program, was one of the speakers.) The event was wildly successful. Kelly found financial support and founded what we know as the Veritas Forum. Since then more than 100 universities world-wide have held Veritas Forums attended by more than 250,000 student and faculty participants. We hope that, by inviting Dr. John Lennox to address the students and faculty at the UF and at Santa Fe College, we can rekindle discussions in a search for truth that were started by Veritas Forums at the UF more than 15 years ago.
Who is John Lennox? http://johnlennox.org/
A prolific writer, Lennox gained recognition when he debated Richard Dawkins in 2007. He's a professor and fellow of Mathematics and of the Philosophy of Science at Oxford University in England. He travels widely speaking and debating with skeptics on topics dealing with science and God. His book, God's Undertaker, Has Science Killed God, delivers a pithy discussion of the relevance of science to Christian thought. It's an entertaining read as you see how he enjoys taking shots at Dawkins. He's widely sought as a speaker so we are fortunate that he has agreed to come to Gainesville.

The Heart of Wisconsin Chamber of Commerce is fortunate to have the opportunity to Empower, Network and Promote our business community. Although our community has faced challenges over the past decade, we have started to diversify our economy and create a network of businesses across sectors.
One sector of vital importance to our community is health care. We are blessed to have a locally owned and governed hospital, several clinics and extensive specialty medical services available. Employment in this sector is growing and evolving. Our educational partners have been proactive in creating the workforce to support the providers. Health care is important to our community.
Health care is also an area where many businesses are challenged to provide cost-effective solutions. The Wisconsin Rapids area has the fourth-highest single monthly premium rates in the state based on data provided in the Wisconsin Health Insurance Cost Rankings 2013. The inability to find affordable healthcare coverage is a deterrent to new business start-ups and existing business sustainability. In addition to the challenges with cost, there is also the challenge to understand and comply with the administrative rules created with the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.
The Heart of Wisconsin Chamber of Commerce is a partner in a collaborative effort that involves small-, medium- and large-sized employers, health care and insurance providers, and community leaders, working to decrease the total costs of health care in the community and maintain or increase the quality of health care available locally. We need to create solutions together that make all parties viable and able to sustain or create jobs.
The Heart of Wisconsin Chamber of Commerce has taken on the challenge to empower our business community with healthcare information, tools and a chamber-endorsed health care package that will help businesses improve the bottom line. Our next health care forum will take place on Monday, March 18 from 3 p.m. until 5 p.m. at the Hotel Mead. Call 715-423-1830 for more information.

1999-12-12 Bernard Hopkins w pts 12 Antwun Echols, Miccosukee Indian Gaming Centre, Miami, Florida, USA - IBF
1999-12-12 Bernard Hopkins w pts 12 Antwun Echols, Miccosukee Indian Gaming Centre, Miami, Florida, USA - IBF. Referee: Frank Santore Jr. Scorecards: 118-110, 119-109, 118-110. Defending his title for the tenth time, Hopkins (158½) lost just two rounds on the cards. However, he was badly wobbled by the tough Echols (160) on several occasions, especially when dropped in the opening round as the referee called 'break'. Although the rounds were going to Hopkins, with Echols meeting the champion punch for punch at times both men took some heavy shots without blinking. By the sixth Hopkins had begun to work the body, but back came Echols, swinging in blows from both hands to win the eighth. While looking likely to go at some stage Echols was still there come the final round. Despite being tired, both men opened up in the 12th. At times both were on the verge of going down as the punches came in fast and furious, and while the result was a formality Hopkins stated afterwards that he had never been hit so hard in his life.

The Primary Care Initiative (PCI) seeks to inform policy changes that allow a broad range of clinicians to provide first-trimester aspiration abortion as a component of primary health care. The Initiative activities focus specifically on certified nurse-midwives, nurse practitioners and physician assistants as providers of abortion care.
The long-term goal of the Initiative is to integrate early abortion provision within women's primary health care. The Primary Care Initiative includes a variety of multidisciplinary projects focused on health workforce development, including:
- The HWPP Project—a training and evaluation project for certified nurse-midwives, nurse practitioners and physician assistants in early aspiration abortion
- The APC Toolkit—Providing Abortion Care: A Professional Toolkit for Nurse-Midwives, Nurse Practitioners, and Physician Assistants—is a professional guide for clinicians who would like to provide abortion care, and for the advocates who support them
- APCs: Advancing Access to Abortion—development of materials examining some of the myriad legal, clinical and educational issues that affect and frame the provision of abortion by advanced practice clinicians
- The development of standards of care and clinical competencies to ensure adequate training requirements for primary care clinicians as abortion providers
- Analysis of the state laws and regulations that govern abortion provision and the health professions
Download the PCI fact sheet.
Learn more about advanced practice clinicians (APCs).
Read our issue briefs.
Completed work in this Initiative: Early Abortion Project
The Early Abortion Project sought to increase access to early abortion services by addressing barriers that prevent providers from offering abortion services. Project efforts focused on four areas:
- Consensus building, dissemination of information, and promotion of evidence-based abortion practice
- Economic analysis and health care systems improvement
- Physician and advanced practice clinical training
- Research to improve and expand abortion services
A consensus monograph, which describes options for management of the termination of early pregnancy, was distributed to over 40,000 health care providers (Early Medical Abortion: Issues for Practice; also available in Spanish). ANSIRH's Early Abortion Training Workbook was also made available online. Studies of the economics of abortion provision included an analysis of the cost to providers of offering medication abortion services and a study of out-of-pocket costs to women undergoing a medication abortion. A model insurance coverage policy and a detailed analysis of malpractice coverage of medication abortion were also produced as components of this project.

A disastrous first race DSQ for the 2008 49er World Champions, young Australian's Nathan Outteridge and Ben Austin was certainly not the Qingdao Olympic start than anyone had expected yesterday.
Nathan Outteridge and Ben Austin (AUS) today
They had won six pre-event practice races with blistering speed but their first race starting strategy turned to custard as they were locked out of the front row, then they hit the top mark and on the next circuit,and then they had an incident with another boat.
15th across the line and DSQ. The second race yesterday they won and in the third race scored a seventh, hardly a dream start. The contrast today... a third placing, then two wins.
In Ben Austin's words 'Our aim was to stay out of trouble on the start line, we had really good boat speed and we were able to use it. If you get a clean lane going in right direct, life gets much easier. We just did not make any mistakes – we were both very happy with today.'
Nathan Outteridge explained what they set out to do. 'On the start line we tried to avoid clumps of boats, to get clear in first 20 seconds; we have good speed in these conditions. We were prepared to make a slight compromise on starting position to make sure of that.
'After that we just had a lot of fun. We had 11 knots for start of first race, blue water, blue skies, good visibility, today we saw islands, we've never seen before.'
Ben Austin summed up. 'There is a long way to go in this regatta but today was a good confidence builder because it showed that our hard work over the last six months has really paid off. Today was a classic day that we've trained for, we had speed and good skills and we got three good results.
'But there are ten races to go. We had a tough time yesterday, the Brits and a few others had some bad races today, but that might happen to us on the next day.
'Right now we think just about any one in the top ten could come through.'
