Chance of a Ghost (A Haunted Guesthouse Mystery)
Item Description
Alison Kerby's guesthouse is haunted all year round. Surviving the dead of winter, though? That's a spooky proposition.
Even with a blizzard bearing down on New Jersey, Alison can count on at least two guests—Paul and Maxie, the stubborn ghosts who share her shore town inn. Then there's her widowed mother, who hasn't just been seeing ghosts, she's been secretly dating one: Alison's father. But when he stands her up three times in a row, something's wrong. Is he a lost soul…or a missing apparition?
Their only lead is an overdramatic spirit—stage name Lawrence Laurentz—who doesn't take direction well and won't talk until they find his killer. Alison will reluctantly play the part of PI, but when the clues take a sinister turn, the writing is on the wall: If Alison can't keep a level head, this will be her father's final act—and maybe her own.

SEATTLE � Clay Buchholz will officially make his return to the Red Sox rotation on Wednesday against the Mariners.
�I�ve been anxious to get back out there since the day I was on the DL,� Buchholz said. �I feel like I put in the work I needed to put in to get better.�
Buchholz�s return settles one part of the Red Sox rotation logjam. Manager John Farrell said Wednesday that left-hander Felix Doubront will temporarily move to the bullpen over the next two series before being penciled in for a start against the Cubs back at Fenway Park next week.
Brandon Workman will remain in the rotation, and he�s the frontrunner to start Friday against the Yankees. Farrell said the preference is to keep Rubby De La Rosa in the rotation, though one wonders how that�s possible with all the other options being juggled.
�Any time you�re talking about trying to fit more guys than there is space, you feel confident about the depth and the numbers,� Farrell said. �And yet you try to be respectful to what guys have done at this level. It�s not just cut and dry�. We�ve got to take a look at every combination available.�
Buchholz made a pair of rehab starts for Triple-A Pawtucket, tossing 10 2/3 innings and allowing three earned runs. His second start was especially sharp, as he allowed only two hits and two walks over six shutout innings.
Buchholz is hopeful that he used the time down productively and that he can hit a kind of reset button on his 2014 season. He�s 2-4 with a 7.02 ERA in the majors � unsightly numbers for a man who was 12-1 with a 1.74 ERA a season ago.
�There is nothing I can do about the numbers that are out there right now,� Buchholz said. �I have to go out and pitch well and give us a chance to win. There�s no other way to do it. That�s my mindset.�
While he was struggling, Buchholz talked about his need to figure out his mechanics so that he wasn�t thinking about them on the mound. They needed to be second-nature. He felt that way in his last minor-league outing.
�There wasn�t any thinking, and that�s what has to happen,� he said. �That�s something I was doing a lot of in just about every start this season. It�s tough when you have three or four things going through your mind when you�re throwing the baseball to a good location.�

text: 1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data If the rms voltage across the generator is 149 V, calculate the average power P(at 402 Hz) being used by the circuit. R = 298 Ω, a capacitance C = 4.1 μF, inductance of L = 0.23 H 2. Relevant equations V=IR Avg power=Vrms*Irms(cos phase angle) vrms=vmax/(sqrt 2) Irms=Imax/(sqrt 2) 3. The attempt at a solution Vrms=IrmsR 149/(sqrt 2)=Irms*298 I think that the 149 V given in the problem needs to be divided by 2 to get Vrms? is rms voltage across generator same as max voltage? i'm not exactly sure about that part...anyways I got: Irms=.35355 Avg power= (.35355)(149/sqrt 2) cos (phase angle) i solved for XL (581) and XC (96.6), which were both correct. so I got the phase angle to be 58.4 degrees Avg power= (.35355)(149/sqrt 2) cos (58.4) I'm not getting the right answer, so maybe my approach was wrong? Any help is appreciated.

Kim Kardashian Whisked to Paris by Kanye West After Greece Trip
Kim Kardashian is on a European adventure! After spending several days in Mykonos, Greece, with her family -- and taping scenes for Keeping Up With the Kardashians, natch -- the pregnant reality star received a visit from Kanye West on Monday, Apr. 29, Us Weekly can exclusively report.
The A-list couple "had a quick meal in Greece with her family," a source reveals. Shortly after, the pair chartered a private plane to Paris, France, where the 35-year-old rapper is currently working on his next album. Kardashian's famous family, meanwhile, stayed behind in Greece. (Stepbrother Brody Jenner and half-sister Kylie Jenner were seen doing flips off a yacht, while the rest of the family went jet skiing and horseback riding.)
PHOTOS: Kim Kardashians puts Kanye West before her family
After being whisked away by West, Kardashian tweeted that she had the "best day ever." The following day, she subtly revealed her new location. "Bon jour!" she wrote. "Gym time."
PHOTOS: Kim Kardashian and Kanye West pack on the PDA
The twice-wed 32-year-old will welcome her first child, a baby boy, in July. Though West has yet to propose, the mom-to-be does see herself walking down the aisle a third time. "I do think I would get married again," Kardashian revealed during Ryan Seacrest With the Kardashians: An E! News Presentation, which aired Sunday, Apr. 21.
VIDEO: What Kim Kardashian loves most about Kanye West
She added, ""That's what I've always wanted. And just because you think you find it and you realize that's not it, I think I was brave enough to realize that quickly and not waste time."

Once a keystone in an age of growth and prosperity, coal is in search of a new role and identity. In 21st century Asia the resource is playing out a transformation similar to the one it underwent in 19th centu ry Europe. However, coal continues to draw rancour worldwide for its deleterious environmental impacts and its rising cost profile. Despite offering a number of "clean coal" options, the future of coal doesn't look like it used to only a few years ago.Discussions of coal's future have become even more heated in recent months as the world's largest coal producer, the United States, plunges into an election furor with energy taking the front stage. In states like West Virginia, Ohio, and Kentucky, which mine or use coal, political support for the coal industry is seen as critical in an era when environmental regulations are making it more costly and challenging to mine and burn the fossil fuel. The US coal industry has been fighting for what it sees as an essential for families, businesses, and industries, all of which have relied on coal to provide more than 50 percent of US electricity output for the last decade. The American Coalition for Clean Coal Electricity ( ACCCE) is arguing that new Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulations are an attempt to shutter the US coal industry. On March 27, 2012, the EPA released its New Source Performance Standards, which limit CO2 emissions to 1,000 lbs/megawatt-hour of energy generation for facilities greater than 25 megawatts. Coal advocates like the ACCCE have said these targets will effectively end any future construction of coal-fired power plants and will reduce any potential deployment of clean-coal technology. "This latest rule will make it impossible to build any new coal-fueled power plants, and could cause the premature closure of many more coal-fueled power plants operating today," the group said on its website. Taking its battle to the American populace, the ACCCE has enlisted the support of NASCAR and developed a YouTube campaign in the hope of pushing back at regulatory changes that have made "America's power" more costly. Clean coal malaise? Outside of regulatory changes, the coal industry is currently facing a number of other cost challenges, from falling gas prices to rising production costs and technological barriers, all of which have made clean coal have less of an impact than previously hoped.

NEWPORT — Power has been restored at the nuclear reactor at DTE energy's Fermi 2 nuclear power plant.
The restart began at 12:30 a.m. Wednesday and the plant was operating at about 70 percent power, said Stephen Tait, a nuclear communications staff member for DTE.
No definitive timeline was established for when the plant would be operating at full power.
"Workers are monitoring the progress and testing to make sure things operate at a safe level," Mr. Tait said.
The plant was shut down April 16 to replace one of the plant's two main transformers.
The transformer was located outside and separate from the reactor. The purpose of the transformer was to increase the voltage power coming from the plant's generator so it can be sent to the grid. It wasn't working properly following Fermi 2's recent refueling outage.
The shutdown did not affect power to consumers.
On Feb. 10, the power plant shut down for its 16th refueling outage and crews worked on plant performance and safety.

Casa Mezcal rode high on a tidal wave of pre-opening blogosphere hype, and then went and lived up to most of it. There are three floors of solid Oaxacan entertainment here: first off is the downstairs, where a stage is set up for live bands to play (think Mexican hipster groups like Kinky) and a dance-floor for scenesters to try out their cha-cha-cha. Once fully renovated, the upstairs is available for private parties for those who want nothing but to gaze down upon the beautiful people of Orchard Street. Linking the upstairs with the downstairs is a carnivalesque bar that offers up a Spanish Armada's-worth of different styles of mezcals, some of which are so potent they'll knock you back into Mayan Calendar time. Huge floor-space, colorful lights, easy-going bartenders, and they have cheese-covered grasshoppers on the appetizer menu.

The Margaret Olley Art Centre (MOAC) is the third and final stage of the Tweed Regional Gallery.
MOAC celebrates the career, life and legacy of its namesake, Margaret Olley – Australia's most celebrated painter of still life and interiors.
MOAC combines exhibitions of paintings and objects, an interactive multi-media drawing activity, research library and education workshop, and is complemented by the Nancy Fairfax Artist in Residence Studio. Central to the MOAC is the recreation of areas of Olley's famous home studio, principally the Hat Factory and the Yellow Room.
The recreation features original architectural elements such as windows and doors, relocated from Olley's home studio at 48 Duxford Street, Paddington, Sydney. The interiors are filled with over 20,000 items Olley collected over many years as subject matter for her paintings.
These combined elements offer a rich and dynamic context for Olley's extensive artistic career.
The home studio recreation is on permanent display while exhibitions of artworks in MOAC will change twice a year.

UPDATE: Woman accused of killing her infant let baby girl die from neglect, detectives say
Shasta County Sheriff's deputies have arrested a woman who they said let her 4-day-old daughter die from neglect.
Investigators found the baby girl's body Sunday afternoon at the Julian Youth Academy on the 12000 block of Tintagel Lane in Whitmore after a school employee alerted authorities.
Deputies Monday arrested the infant's mother, 23-year-old Jessica Bradford, on suspicion of murder and willful harm to a child.
Sheriff's detectives said Tuesday that Bradford gave birth to the girl in mid-September and the baby died about four days later. Bradford initially told a detective the baby was stillborn but later admitted the girl lived for four days, sheriff's Sgt. Steve Grashoff said.
Bradford told detectives she hadn't told anybody — including her boyfriend of three years — that she was pregnant, Grashoff said. She said she thought about giving the baby up for adoption but chose not to, deputies said.
Bradford kept the baby in a vacant residence on campus and would occasionally check on it, Grashoff said. She continued to go to work, see her boyfriend and drove to Redding at least twice for personal business, he said.
She told Detective Brian Jackson she didn't feed the baby and tried to give the girl water when she cried, Grashoff said.
"She did not want to tell her boyfriend about the baby because she did not want to affect his life and her life," Grashoff said in a news release.
Bradford kept the infant hidden in a laundry basket in her room for about a month and a half after the girl died, Grashoff said. She moved the girl's body into a utility closet Friday after realizing someone may have seen the body, according to the sheriff's office.
Julian Youth Academy workers found the baby in a pile of blankets in the staff dorm room, sheriff's logs said. An employee called authorities Sunday to report the find, but the baby was gone when she went to check.
The employee who called authorities reported other employees had said they found the baby Friday evening. The baby appeared not to be fully developed and one of its arms was disfigured, sheriff's logs said.
Grashoff said the baby was in a mummified state of decomposition but was fully developed.
Bradford was a Julian Youth Academy employee, said Phil Ludwig, academy director. He declined to elaborate on her position at the Southern California-based, private Christian boarding school for troubled teens.
"This had nothing to do with the school," Ludwig said. "This was a private residence she rented, it did not directly involve the school in any way."
Grashoff said Bradford is originally from the El Cajon area in Southern California. At 17 she entered the Julian Youth Academy and stayed on as an employee after graduating, he said.
"We're very sad at the possible event that took place," said Ludwig. "Other than that we don't know what happened and we don't want to guess at it."
Bradford is held in Shasta County Jail on $1 million bail. Grashoff said she's scheduled to be arraigned Wednesday.

Ideas sought for now available tourism grants
September 7, 2015

Bay Beat Collective
No shows scheduled for now
The Mumbai-based BBC (Bay Beat Collective), formed in response to the abundance of standard-issue electronica, so commonly heard in clubs and bars across the country. BBC`s passion lies in drum & bass, breaks, dubstep, glitch, funk and minimal sounds.
BBC explores new aural territory, dabbling in styles ranging from breaks to drum n bass glitch hop to dubstep, dark to funky and tech, with a partiality to ``phat`` basslines and high voltage grooves that are infectious, delicious and supremely funky. They`ve injected fun into a scene, which was mutating into an increasingly austere and po-faced arena. Their DJ sets continually re-affirm the feeling of dancing the night away, in a sweaty club, surrounded by like-minded complete strangers.

Loving the new layout, guys! It is a little complicated to navigate at first but it looks great!
I really hope DeAndre keeps this up. His hookshot is really good. I'm still giving him a few more games, but this is will take pressure off of BG. Teams are going to have to guard DeAndre now. He's not shooting 3s, but you can't leave him alone now.
Defensive wise there are still some problems, but his new offense and energy make up for it.
Lakers gotta hire DUNLEAVY!!!!!!!!!!!! Please!!!!!!
I will not be happy if the Lakers hire Nate McMillan. McMillan is a really good coach.
I agree with what you said but our mindset should be that it doesn't matter what the Lakers are doing or who they hire. It feels likes like the old Clippers mindset. The new Clippers mindset could care less. You can put money down on all the ESPN writers asking the Clippers about the coaching change and all of them rolling their eyes.
It's not about caring about what the Lakers do, it's laughing at their failures.
If DeAndre keeps playing like this we can beat anyone in the West.

Duck Sports Authority Staff
Duck Sports Authority
Defensive end recruit, Tonio Celotto, took an unofficial visit to the University of Oregon last week, and Duck Sports Authority caught up with the 6-foot-4, 240 pounder from Simi Valley, Calif., Royal High school.
Celotto has received an offer from the Ducks; did the visit to Eugene make a positive impression on this Californian prospect?
"It was great; they really know how to treat a recruit," Celotto said. "They showed me around the facilities, and I got to watch them during practice. It was cool to see them practice inside."
Celotto told us that he was really impressed with the whole experience and his dad, Mario Celotto, was equally impressed. ...More... To continue reading this article you must be a member. Sign Up Now!

Picture: * PITT & JOLIE DESIGN JEWELLERY FOR CHARITY BRAD PITT and ANGELINA JOLIE have turned jewellery designers to launch a collection of accessories benefiting the...
Brad Pitt's ex-lovers Jennifer Aniston and Gwyneth Paltrow spent Thanksgiving Day (26Nov09) together at a hotel launch in Morocco.
The actresses snubbed Thanksgiving celebrations in the U.S. to walk the red carpet in Marrakesh for the re-opening of Hotel La Mamounia, along with Pirates of the Caribbean star Orlando Bloom.
But it wasn't all glitz and glamour for Paltrow - she was quietly mourning the loss of her father, Bruce, who would have turned 66 on Thursday. He lost his battle with cancer in 2002.
The Shakespeare in Love star wrote in her Goop.com newsletter, "I dedicate this Thanksgiving letter, on parental acceptance, to my father, who would have been 66 today. He was the greatest parent, friend, rabbi any girl could ever have asked for. Happy Birthday Bruce. And Happy Thanksgiving everybody."
Paltrow split from fiance Pitt in 1997 after dating for two years, while Aniston ended her five-year marriage to the actor in 2005.

Fitch Rates Cielo S.A.'s IDR and Proposed Notes 'BBB+'; Outlook Stable Business Wire RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil -- November 01, 2012 Fitch Ratings has assigned the following ratings to Cielo S.A. (Cielo) and its subsidiary Cielo USA Inc.: Cielo --Foreign currency Issuer Default Ratings (IDR) 'BBB+'; --Local currency IDR 'BBB+'; --Long-term national scale rating 'AAA(bra)'. Cielo USA Inc. --Foreign currency IDR 'BBB+'; --Proposed Senior unsecured notes 'BBB+'. The Rating Outlook for the corporate ratings is Stable. Cielo's investment grade ratings reflect the company's leading position in the Brazilian card payment industry and the strength and resilience of its business model, which is supported by the growing and predictable revenue stream from a diversified base of affiliated merchants. Cielo has a solid capital structure, liquidity position, and the ability to generate strong and resilient cash flow in its business. Cielo's ratings also incorporate the low counterparty risks associated with the Brazilian banking system, as more than 95% of credit and debit transactions are settled with investment grade banks. The support and the strength of its controlling shareholders, Banco Bradesco S.A. (Bradesco) [rated 'AAA(bra)' National Scale; local currency IDR 'A-' and foreign currency IDR 'BBB+' by Fitch] and Banco do Brasil S.A. (Banco do Brasil) [rated 'AAA(bra)' National Scale; local and foreign currency IDR 'BBB' by Fitch] are also incorporated in the ratings. Cielo's ratings are not limited by the credit profile of one of its main shareholders, Banco do Brasil, as it divides the control of the company with Bradesco and its access to Cielo's cash flow is restricted to dividends. The Brazilian card payment industry has high barriers to entry, which support Cielo's strong market position. Fitch views Cielo's business model as sustainable over the medium term, despite the highly competitive environment. Cielo's strong competitive advantage in the industry relies, among other factors, on the relationship and distribution network of four important banks in the Brazilian financial system. Cielo USA Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Cielo. The proposed senior unsecured notes of approximately USD750 million to USD1 billion are unconditionally and irrevocably guaranteed by Cielo. The use of proceeds are for debt refinancing and for general corporate purposes. The credit quality of Cielo and Cielo USA Inc. have been linked according to Fitch's 'Parent and Subsidiary Rating Linkage' criteria report dated Aug. 8, 2012. Leading Position in the Brazilian Card Payment Industry: Cielo is the leading company in the merchant acquiring and payment processing industry in Brazil and in Latin America. The company's estimated market share of 55% is based on the value of transactions with credit and debit cards. Currently, Cielo and Redecard account for more than 95% of the market and given the barriers to entry, Fitch does not expect a material reduction in its market share over the medium term. The penetration of credit and debit cards in Brazil is low, which supports Cielo's long-term growth prospects, and despite the more competitive environment; Cielo's strategy to preserve margins may result in a moderate reduction of market share in the short term. Cielo affiliation with several of the leading banks in Brazil, gives it access to their broad customer base to acquire merchants accounts and creates high barriers to entry; approximately 60% of merchant accounts are established through affiliations with banks. Cielo has a strong competitive advantage, as the company relies on the strong relationship and distribution network of Banco do Brasil, Bradesco, HSBC and Caixa, with total branches of 13,266 (about 60% of the Brazilian banking system). Although Fitch does not expect a significant change in the Brazilian card payment industry in the short term, the uncertainties about the new entrants to the market and also possible new regulatory requirements will be closely monitored. Low Risk of Credit Loss: Cielo currently has virtually no direct credit exposure to cardholders, as the card-issuing bank guarantees cardholder's payment. The company is, however, exposed to card-issuing bank defaults on a payment settlement for Visa transactions. The licensing agreement with Mastercard mitigates this risk, as it guarantees the settlement of all transactions. The risk associated to Visa transactions is mitigated by the fact that more than 95% of the volume of credit and debit transactions is concentrated in investment grade banks. For non-investment grade banks, Cielo's prudent risk management policy requires the card-issuing bank to pledge collateral. Historically, Cielo has reported very low credit losses. The company is exposed to merchants that accept cards processed by Cielo in terms of their performance, payment of the rental of the equipment, fraud, and losses due to customer charge-backs. Nonetheless, loss from transactions that result in fraud, charge-backs, cancellation of sales by merchants and default in the payment of the rental of equipment represented less than 1% of net revenues. Low Liquidity Risk: Cielo's liquidity is solid. As of Sept. 30, 2012, Cielo had cash and marketable securities of BRL393 million and the company has strong financial flexibility to quickly build up a cash cushion if necessary. During the latest 12 months (LTM) ended September 2012, Cielo generated BRL3.7 billion of adjusted EBITDA, including financial income derived from the discounting and pre-payment of its receivables to its merchants, BRL2.4 billion in funds from operations (FFO) and BRL1.9 billion in cash flow from operations (CFFO). These results compare with BRL3 billion, BRL2 billion and BRL1.8 billion, respectively, in 2011. High dividends and the company's acquisition strategy have pressured the company's free cash flow. In the LTM ended September 2012, investments totaled BRL1.4 billion and dividends totaled BRL1.4 billion. In July 2012, Cielo acquired a 100% participation in an American company, Merchant e-Solutions (MeS), for USD670 million (BRL1.365 billion), which was partially financed with debt. MeS should positively contribute to Cielo's growth strategy. Cielo has a minimum dividend distribution policy of 50% of net income and in 2011, the company distributed dividends of about 70% of net income. Recurring and Growing Revenues: Cielo's business model is stable, with a low correlation to economic cycles. The revenue growth is generally driven by the increasing migration to an electronic payment system from a cash system and increasing card payment penetration in Brazil. In the LTM ended September 2012, net revenues was BRL5,024 million, compared to BRL4,209 million in 2011, and does not include financial income from pre-payment of payables to merchants. Cielo processed volume of BRL316 billion of credit and debit card transactions in 2011, and BRL276 billion in the first nine months of 2012. In 2011, revenues from the rental of POS equipment equaled BRL1.1 billion and financial income from pre-payment/discounting of payables to merchants equaled BRL587 million and also contributed to growth. Strong customer diversification also supports the ratings. Significant changes in the competitive landscape in the Brazilian card payment industry have occurred since July 2010 as the market opened up to competition, which has pressured Cielo's operating margins. In the LTM ended September 2012, adjusted EBITDA margin was 63.5%, compared to 67.2% in 2010. Fitch does not expect a significant reduction in net merchant discount rate (MDR) and adjusted EBITDA margins should remain around 63% over the near term. Leverage to Remain Low: Cielo's leverage is low. As of Sept. 30, 2012, total debt was BRL1,121 million, composed of a bridge loan of USD400 million to finance the MeS acquisition and FINAME loans of BRL310 million to finance the purchase of POS equipment. In the LTM ended September 2012, total debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio was 0.3x, compared to 0.1x in 2011. Leverage should increase to about 0.6x following the proposed issuance of approximately USD750 million to USD1 billion; leverage is not expected to materially change over the next few years. The proceeds will used to repay the bridge loan issued to finance MeS acquisition, and for future working capital needs. Potential Rating or Outlook Drivers: Ratings upgrades are not likely in the short to medium term. Cielo's IDRs are already positioned at the same level of Brazil's country ceiling of 'BBB+'. Ratings downgrades would most likely be driven by an increase in the volume of credit and debit transactions with non-investment grade banks or not guaranteed by Mastercard; by a weakening credit profile of the main banks that operate with Cielo; and/or by a significant loss due to fraud and charge-backs. Factors that could lead to consideration of a Negative Outlook or downgrade also include effects on the business caused by the competitive environment and significant changes in the regulatory risk.

text: I had a 45CT1 back in 77 and then later a 60CT2 and now a 60CT4. At first I went for the 60 because of the power (which you all know not much more) but I found out it's much less tiring carrying the 60 series because the flash unit is lighter although bigger. The extra power comes in handy only in term of faster recycling time as the flash still has significant charge left after each shot not so much in term of being able to shoot farther or with smaller aperture.

A hypothetical fight. Floyd Mayweather vs. Paul Williams
As you can see I had a bit of time on my hands so I created a hypothetical fight round by round.
This fight would take place at welterweight and we'll assume both fighters are bringing their A game. Physical dimensions of both fighters. Mayweather height 5'8" reach 72, Williams 6'2" reach 81.
Round 1. Absolutely no feeling out process for Williams, he throws barrages of punches in Floyd's direction, most of them being blocked but Floyd's never had to shoulder roll so many punches. Floyd lands several crisp counters but eats far more leather than he's used to. Round 1 Williams.
Round 2. Williams continues walking Floyd down, throwing punches from all angels Floyd is noticeably uncomfortable. He does a lot of holding whenever Williams gets too close to him, once again Floyd lands the cleaner punches but is only potshotting. Round 2 Williams.
Round 3 Mayweather begins to use the ring a bit more tagging Williams with solid right hands and immediately falling into a clinch. However, Floyd's mediocre punching power leaves Williams undeterred. He continues walking down Floyd landing punches that are more like slaps. Still Floyd won't open up his offense, Round 3 Williams. As of now Williams hasn't landed anything notable but has thrown 300+ punches while Floyd hasn't broke 100. Compubox numbers so far, Wiliiams 87 out of 309 punches landed, Floyd 56 out of 93 punches landed. Floyd is losing clearly based on aggression alone. During the break Roger has told his nephew that he has to be a little more busy, Floyd agrees to step it up. He asks Roger if he won the last round, Roger knowingly lies and tells him that he's kicking his @$% easy but just open up a bit more and he'll be ready to go in the late rounds.
Round 4. Mayweather puts up his high guard and attempts to walk Williams down, he's immediately bombarded with slaps from all directions. Floyd retreats to the ropes resorting to more shoulder rolling. He catches Williams with several consecutive counters then begins to go downstairs. They are trading shots from close range Floyd lands the harder punches the crowd is coming alive. Round 4 Floyd.
Round 5. Floyd meets Williams in the center of the ring and opens up with a 4 punch combo landing every shot Williams continues forward unfazed throwing more punches. Williams spends the remaining round along with the next two rounds recklessly following Floyd around the ring eating feather fisted potshots. Round 5,6,and 7 Floyd. Williams' cornerman Mr.Peterson has told his fighter " keep throwing punches you're doing fine" (Huh?).
Round 8 More of the same Williams is getting countered to death, he refuses to use his height nor to work behind the jab from the outside. Round 8 Floyd.
Round 9 More potshotting from Floyd, Floyd is coasting to a victory. Williams backs Floyd to the ropes and lands a big straight left hand, Floyd holds on but is stunned. Williams throws punches in bunches but fails to drop Floyd. Round 9 Williams. Lampley is having an org asm he swears Floyd was out on his feet. Ellerbee caresses Floyd during the break, Floyd claims he's ok.
Round 10 Williams comes out and smothers Floyd with punches they are fighting in a phone booth they're both landing hard shots Floyd hasn't had to trade blows like this since his fight with Corley. Round 10 Williams.
Round 11. Williams eats counters for the majority of the round but Floyd finds himself in the corner, he spends the remaining 45 seconds eating leather and shoulder rolling. Round 11 tie.
Round 12 Wiliiams comes out and hurts Floyd with a stiff left hand Floyd holds on again, upon the break Williams throws a 7 punch combo landing 4 of the punches, it appears that he hurt Floyd with a punch downstairs. Shockingly The ref calls time, claiming that the body shot was low, he allows Floyd to walk it off, the replay is being shown on the jumbo-tron, the punch landed directly on the upper part of the cup nowhere near his groin area. The crowd begins to boo. Williams receives a hard warning and Floyd uses nearly the maximum of 5 minutes awarded for the "illegal blow". The fight resumes with Williams throwing punches nonstop, Floyd lands a few punches but nothing meaningful. Round 12 Williams.
The decision is being announced. Ladies and gentlemen we go to the scorecards Ted Smith scores the fight 115-115 a draw, judge William Tyler scored it 117-111 and judge David Flo Mo scored 116-112 for your Winner by Majority decision Floyd Money MAAAAYYYWEEEAAATHHERRR. And that's it Floyd wins by a very big and questionable decision. Final compubox stats Williams 382 out of 1114 and Mayweather 257 out of 636 punches thrown.

Re: A hypothetical fight. Floyd Mayweather vs. Paul Williams
The style would be a problem, because on top of the physical problem you have a guy who presents the same pressure nightmare as Castillo did.
The trade off is he isn't a big puncher.
That said I don't think Floyd has the power to get Paul off him, but Paul doesn't have the ring smarts to cut the ring off Floyd and to stop Floyd from potshotting him and getting an easy UD victory.
It is a great fight that never happened.

Re: A hypothetical fight. Floyd Mayweather vs. Paul Williams
Paul Williams would have been pretty close to unbeatable if he fought off his jab. However he favored a more agresive and crowd pleasing style. It's a style that Mayweather can take advantage of.

Re: A hypothetical fight. Floyd Mayweather vs. Paul Williams
Williams could and perhaps would double up Mayweather's punch output and would still lose on the grounds of effective punching. He gets inside too much, wouldn't land with his lead shots and the height and reach advantage would be nullified immediately, with Mayweather picking him apart on the inside and landing one of his best punches the left hook (as opposed to Sergio's kryptonite left straight) at any time pulling out from the exchanges. Mayweather has shown too great of an ability to find his opponents weaknesses and expose those weaknesses while fighting the fight in a way which on paper would favor his opponent (inside fight vs. Hatton, walking down vs. Mosley, on ropes standing ground vs. Cotto). Floyd UD, probably 116-112 on all the cards.

Re: A hypothetical fight. Floyd Mayweather vs. Paul Williams
Paul had far too many technical flaws, and defensive holes to beat Floyd.
Kermit ****ron was outboxing Williams for 4 rounds for Christ Sake!
Floyd would have pretty clearly outpointed him.

Post ***y PWill gets toyed with (as Lara dominated him). Pre ***y PWill makes for a difficult test.
The only fighter I can say with near certainty that absolutely beats Floyd is Vernon Forrest. Pre Martinez PWill could present some obstacles though

HC-110 syrup is really gooey, and it's OK with the syringe approach. That method is tidy and not wasteful.
As mentioned, some don't have stellar developing results with it. I'm still trying, but not convinced it's for me and HP5+ in the long run. I've never duplicated my consistently satisfying results with Rodinal 1+50 for Delta 100 and FP4+. Maybe DD-X for HP5+.

PlayStation 4 to be called Orbis
Sony's next games console - previously been dubbed "PlayStation 4", for obvious reasons - is going to be called "Orbis" - according to sources familiar with the matter. The name, which may be its internal codename and could change before release, is a Latin word, which means circle or ring.
The same sources have also told games website Kotaku that the next-generation console will launch in Q4 2013, just in time for Christmas that year.
Of course, sources can often be wide of the mark. You need only read the rumours from the preceding two weeks or so before the launch of any Apple device to know that. However, there's a further clue to back up the name claim. The URL for Sony's portal for developers generally begins with the hardware name in question; vita.scedev.net or ps3.scedev.net, for example. Type orbis.scedev.net, and you get to the same page. Type ps4.scedev.net and you don't, you get a 404 instead.
That proves that Sony is considering that name for one of its products or platforms.
Kotaku also reports that its main source has revealed a little about the prospective specifications of the Orbis (which will surely be called PS Orbis, much like the PS Vita). At present the processor will be an AMD x64 CPU, while the graphics will be handled by the AMD Southern Islands GPU. The latter will be capable of managing video resolutions of up to 4096 x 2160 (4K2K) in order to cater for the next generation of high-definition TVs, such as the Toshiba 55ZL2, currently on sale at John Lewis.
The main source also states that select developers have been receiving Orbis devkits since the beginning of the year, and that, sadly, there will be no backwards compatibility with the PS3. It will not spin PlayStation 3 discs, although Pocket-lint would expect you'll be able to purchase digital copies of PS3 titles through the PlayStation Store.
Finally, Kotaku claims that the new machine will also come with anti-used games measures, like the Xbox 720/Durango. Its source states that the Blu-ray or digital download version of the full game will be locked to the purchaser's PSN account. A game will always have to be authenticated online when first loaded, so a broadband connection will be a must.
We've no idea what that means for trade-in games, but, to be honest, with the painful and sad demise of GAME and Gamestation, that side of the market is diminishing in the UK anyway. At least, unlike some reports of the Durango, it seems Sony is keen to keep a disc drive on the new console.
What do you think? Is Orbis a good name? And are you for or against the trade-in locks? Let us know in the comments below...

The "Turn The Pearl River Delta Into One" scheme will create a 16,000 sq mile urban area that is 26 times larger geographically than Greater London, or twice the size of Wales.
The new mega-city will cover a large part of China's manufacturing heartland, stretching from Guangzhou to Shenzhen and including Foshan, Dongguan, Zhongshan, Zhuhai, Jiangmen, Huizhou and Zhaoqing. Together, they account for nearly a tenth of the Chinese economy.
Over the next six years, around 150 major infrastructure projects will mesh the transport, energy, water and telecommunications networks of the nine cities together, at a cost of some 2 trillion yuan (£190 billion).

Bruce Willis and Wife Are Expecting!
Rumer, Scout and Tallulah Willis are about to have a much younger sibling!
Bruce Willis and second wife Emma Heming Willis are expecting their first child together "early next year," their rep tells Us Weekly.
Married since spring 2009, the Die Hard actor, 56, and designer-model, 35, are "overjoyed with this news and they look forward to welcoming this newest addition into their family," the rep adds in a statement.
Willis, of course, already has three daughters with first wife Demi Moore: Rumer, 23, Scout, 20, and Tallulah, 17.
PHOTOS: Hollywood's most amicable exes
A few months after their March 2009 wedding in the Turks and Caicos Islands, Willis told Us Weekly he wasn't sure about becoming a dad for the fourth time. "It's been suggested we begin breeding immediately," Willis joked. "[But we're taking it] just a day at a time. Really slowly."
The star also gushed to W magazine about his stunning bride. "I hear so many people in relationships say, 'I just need a couple of days away, or even an hour away,'" Willis said. "But I don't want to be away from Emma at all. It's the most singular relationship I've ever had in my life."
PHOTOS: Star dads share personal snapshots of their kids
His ex-wife Moore, 48, is currently riding out some rocky days with Ashton Kutcher, her second husband of six years. Moore and Willis have remained on amicable terms since their divorce in 2000.
