Venus Embrace Looks Articles
Sponsored Tingles: Venus Best Legs – Beyonce
It'd be easy to name someone like Charlize Theron. Her legs are ridiculously beautiful. It's a genetic blessing. Beautiful is one thing. But relatable is another. And for a short sometimes stumpy Asia girl like me, who will never be an amazon, it's about relatability – illusory or not. Full Story
Sponsored Tingles: Venus Looks – Kate Walsh
Kate Walsh in Monte Carlo yesterday promoting Private Practice. Makes me sad to say it. Because I love Kate Walsh. I love her voice. In those car commercials, have you seen them? Girl has a sexy voice. But she's stuck on a nowhere show. A great character on a nowhere show. Still…it's a sales pitch. Full Story
Sponsored Tingles: Venus Looks – Hayden P.
Little Lolita is crusty with the media and throws around her child star entitlement much too often but give her credit, especially surrounded by starving twats all over town, not to have succumbed to thinnification thus far. Hers is a cute body. Compact, curvy, athletic, and lean. Hayden was working on her tan in Cannes, yacht hopping and luxuriating, and so she's made several appearance this week showing off some skin. Full Story
Sponsored Tingles: Venus Looks – Fergie
Fergie is currently promoting the Black Eyed Peas new album The E.N.D. through Europe. Their first hit single Boom Boom Pow is currently #1 on the Billboard 100. You like it? Not really growing on me. Anyway, the first set is Ferg in Paris on Wednesday, having worked off that imaginary weight she put on for Nine in the Hollywood Hills, where she was spotted hiking for 2 hours several times a week for weeks, showing off her legs, which she'll be doing more and more of as the release date approaches (June 9th) and as we get deeper and deeper into the summer. Full Story
Spons'd Tingles: Venus Looks – Sharon Stone
The older, the shorter? Why not? It works for her. She's crazy, but it works for her. Sharon Stone is an undeniably attractive woman. Who has amazing legs. Last Friday in Beverly Hills at a Nelson Mandela Foundation event – here she is in a short dress and the body of a 25 year old. Don't deny it. Full Story
Spons'd Tingles: Venus Looks – Monica Cruz
Penelope Cruz has the Oscar. Some would argue her sister has the face and the legs. Monica Cruz is labelled an "actress/model/dancer". She and Pene represent Mango. Apparently she's been in a few movies. This week she was posing on a car in Berlin promoting her latest Jerry Cotton. As you will see, this is a girl who knows what she's doing. Full Story
Spons'd Tingles: Venus Looks - Kelly Ripa
Regis & Kelly are taping in Miami this week. Kelly Ripa brought her entire family down there to enjoy the sun. So you've heard the speculation about Kelly's body. No doubt, she does lose the baby weight ridiculously quickly. Obsessed gym freak. Having said that, while her body is sick crazy toned, it's also not as severe as Madonna's. Full Story
Sponsored Tingles: Venus Embrace Goddess Look #1
Each week for the next 8 weeks, we're helping our friends at P&G/Gillette explore celebrity style - specifically how their looks change from daytime to evening. Each week we will select a new photo set of a sexy celeb and contrast it with what she wore during the daytime or evening in the past, depending on which time of day it was taken. Full Story

ABF expands global supply chain services into Europe and Turkey
December 06, 2012 - LM Editorial
ABF Global Supply Chain Services, a subsidiary of Arkansas Best Corporation, recently announced it has expanded its services into Europe and Turkey.
These services include ocean transport, providing a single contact for full-container-load (FCL) and expedited less-than-container load supply chain services. With this announcement, ABF officials said that ABF Global Supply Chain Services now has offices in Turkey, Germany, United Kingdom, France, Italy, Spain, The Netherlands, Belgium, Republic of Ireland and Poland. And it said it is serving 15 ports in Europe with multiple weekly sailings to handle import and export FCL shipments and is also serving more than 50 container freight stations and pre-carriage points of pickup and delivery with multiple sailings per week for LCL shipments.
ABF Director of Marketing and Public Relations Russ Aikman told LM that the impetus for this expansion is due to globalization.
"The world's economics have become so interconnected that our customers and our customers' customers are sourcing their goods from literally around the world," he said. "We have always planned to provide service in the EU and have been doing so for several months now. As our services to and from Asia gained traction, we have moved to broaden our reach. Turkey and Europe were a natural extension. And we plan to continue this global expansion."
Ocean-borne service offerings are not new to ABF. The company introduced a FCL (full-container-load) business in 2006. ABF has had an established presence for several years and is a licensed NVOCC (non-vessel operating common carrier) and services more than 250 ports in 130 countries as part of its ABF International service, which is geared for shippers moving international freight on a periodical basis. And in 2008, the company rolled out its ABF Global Supply Chain Services to meet the demands of an economy that has expanded globally.
When asked how ABF's ocean services—and others—have evolved since 2006, Aikman said that while many providers can claim to offer a similar service, very few can provide the unique combination of asset-based and asset-light capabilities.
"We can deliver total control and complete visibility to a customer's LCL and FCL supply chain, which is an innovation valued by our customers," he said. "The biggest benefit is the fact that ABF handles everything. We're a synchronized local, regional and transcontinental motor carrier, a non-vessel operating common carrier, and a global logistics service provider—linked by a state-of-the-art technology platform that is the envy of the industry."
While the Trans-Pacific corridor continues to drive the global commerce, Aikman said ABF is finding a growing need for service in the EU region and will continue to explore other areas of the world to ensure its North American customers have the total reach they require.
Regarding staffing in Europe and Turkey, Aikman explained that local agents provide in-country services on the foreign end, including scheduling, booking, documentation, regulatory notification, staging and consolidation of shipments. And these local agents tender shipments to partner ocean lines for ocean carriage to domestic ports. Containers are then delivered to ABF's domestic facilities in the port area for deconsolidation and introduction into ABF's Dual-System Network.

MLB Extra innings 2012
Posted 04 March 2012 - 12:47 PM
Posted 04 March 2012 - 03:10 PM
Last year DTV did not open up the regional sports channel broadcasts of spring training games to MLB EI subscribers.
Can somebody please verify whether or not this is also true this year?
Last year D* did open the RSNs for spring training games, however the first few games were mistakenly blacked out. This was the first time in awhile they got it straight from Day 1.

Does this require a "Sports Pack" subscription to get the out-of-town regional sports channels, or is an MLB EI subscription sufficient?
Posted 05 March 2012 - 08:23 PM
I have to admit I was kinda excited to try the MLB.TV thing this year, so there is a chance I'll end up subscribing to both, lol.
Posted 06 March 2012 - 09:06 AM
I do prefer to have it on DirecTV, but with MLB.tv available on my PS3 and Kindle Fire, I am more than willing to give MLB.tv a shot this year.
Posted 06 March 2012 - 08:28 PM
(Plus, for 20 clams, you get all the Triple-A games too)
Posted 07 March 2012 - 07:22 AM
I just called to do the whole "cancel, cancel" thing. The best deal I could get was $5 a month off for 6 months. I took that deal for now. If I can't get them to match the price of MLB.tv, I will cancel it for good and go with MLB.tv before the season starts.
I do prefer to have it on DirecTV, but with MLB.tv available on my PS3 and Kindle Fire, I am more than willing to give MLB.tv a shot this year.
First off.....I'm glad to be back on this forum after a long absence.
I gave up on MLB EI several years ago because of the cost and the fact that our provider at the time (Verizon Fios) only offered a handful of games in HD. We retired to NC in October and had TWC which we hated. So, today we are scheduled to have DirecTV installed. We had it for several years in NoVA and enjoyed it very much.
As for baseball, I've used MLB.TV for several years and have no complaints. We have 2 Samsung Smart TVs that have the app and it's been great. A 3rd TV gets the feed via a Roku player and it too works very well. Plus I can watch games on the road on a laptop and on my Droid phone thru the At Bat app (which is free to MLB.TV subscribers).
MLB.TV is very good quality for the money and IMO offers more that the EI package.
Good luck on your decision.

I canceled for this year as well. I'm sure I'll be back, probably next season. .....
To say I'm shocked would be an understatement!!
Ah well, my son still wants Boston, so, I'll eventually fold on MLB EI.

Posted 12 March 2012 - 09:35 AM
Since, I'm no longer under contract, I'd think they would have offered more, but maybe it doesn't go hand in hand.
Posted 12 March 2012 - 11:25 AM
Just called and was offered $50 off mlbei, but I declined as I am looking for more. I'm actually excited to try mlb.tv premium, so if I can't get it for the same price or closer, I'll go with that.
Since, I'm no longer under contract, I'd think they would have offered more, but maybe it doesn't go hand in hand.
You should call back and say cancel twice at the voice prompt to get to retention who can give you a better offer. Sell your strong points and see what they offer. Hopefully something good. Let us know.

I told him I couldnt pay that much. He asked what I watch and I mentioned sports and would love to keep MLB but just cannot pay that price. He fumbled around a bit and said we could cut Starz or Showtime if I wanted from my account. Nothing about MLB at all...and basically went straight to 'is there anything else we can do? ok bye'.

So I watched the Royals/M's game on Root NW (Ch. 687) Live last night, but I missed the first 4 innings. I set the DVR to record the replay later, and went to play it back this morning, and it was blacked out. Who the heck comes up with these STUPID Rules?!?? The Live Game is in the Clear, but the Replay is Blacked out???
National rights are usually limited to the live broadcast.

National rights are usually limited to the live broadcast.
Funny how it's Just the opposite on MLB.tv, The Live Games (reg. season) in your home market are blacked out, but the replays are in the clear... I still say Every Game should be Free and Clear for Everyone who paying, regardless of where they are watching from!

at times I have to turn the speed down on the mlb.tv to 800k for it to stream consistently.
same with NHL GCL.
in my overall experience, the TV is better, so I cancelled mlb.tv and will be on EI and also will stay with CI
what I might do is get a slingbox, so I can watch my TV when im away online.

Hmmm...it is not even up on Roku until the season starts. What were you using?
I believe Roku has to update their client every year for it to work with the next season and they tend to drag their feet and wait till the start of the season.
Other clients like Boxees continue to work for the next season without updating and thus people are able to see the presseason games.

I just cancelled mlb.tv today. The PQ on the big screen is horrible. I have 20Mbs internet speed (FIOS), and I kept getting stuttering (all my other internet streaming is really great quality).

So I was gonna gett MLB.tv instead of EI but when I tried watching in the archives it kept skipping or buffering so I canceled, it was within my 5 days so I got a refund, I caled Directv and got EI instead.
That was my problem with it last season. It was great when I wanted to watch it on the iPad or iPhone, but streaming through Apple TV - with a 25 downstream through FIOS - was always a crapshoot. And since I watched it 95 percent of the time through the Apple TV, I wasn't happy. That's why I went with EI this season.

Well, thanks god that uncle Toni keep Rafa humble. Imagine if he have higher standards, maybe he buy Spain!!ReplyDelete
well it's not exactly new..I've seen some pictures of rafa in it before in VB.com but not these particular photos. thanks! rafa's looking good!ReplyDelete
Well HELLO Rafa!! o_OReplyDelete
Although I did recently praise him for being all humble and settling for a Kia Sorrento instead of a fancy sportscar.
Oh well. I'd buy one, too. LOL
Plus, Aston Martin is so... James Bond.
I'm not into sports cars, but if I were a 22 year old man with millions of dollars, they might appeal to me.ReplyDelete
Plus...that hood is an invitation for a romp. Just sayin'.

he didn't buy it. it was a gift after he won the Wimbledon.ReplyDelete
And yep...he looks hot in a pair of old trackie bottoms as well.ReplyDelete
I wonder how many cars he's actually won now...a lot I bet.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousFebruary 10, 2009 at 10:42 AM
That white Merc in the pic No. 4 (with his uncles Rafael and Toni) is the one Rafa got for winning Stuttgart 2007. And he immediately gifted it to uncle Toni.ReplyDelete
Few years before that he also won a Merc in Stuttgart (yeah, they are so annoying with gifting those, LOL; a Mercedes factory is there), but he didn't own a driver's licence then, so it lingered in his garage for a while. Then he started to be sponsored by Kia (which includes being issued with their latest models), got a licence, bumped into an electricity pylon with it while going real slow down the local country roads as a rookie driver, got another Kia and finally learned to drive properly.
Last summer he was photographed trucking his mates to the beach in a Kia 4x4 and that red Merc. And now, this classy Aston Martin, the first car he chose himself. One would expect an obvious Ferrari or a tacky Lamborgini. WTG, Rafa, great taste.
The perfect combination: my favorite car for my favorite tennis player...totally hot. I can't believe he waited this long to indulge regardless if its a gift or not...you've earned it kid just drive it safely please, you got a Grand Slam to pull of this year.ReplyDelete
Uh, can I get a ride?ReplyDelete
Narik - depends on what kind of ride you're wanting...ReplyDelete
I'll take whatever ride he offers! :PReplyDelete
Sonja: Exactly what I was just thinking :DReplyDelete

Ocala native appointed to circuit court bench
Published: Saturday, October 19, 2013 at 8:13 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, October 19, 2013 at 8:13 p.m.
Christi Underwood was practically born with a hammer in her hand. Starting Oct. 28, she will trade that for a gavel.
The Ocala native has been appointed as a circuit judge for the 9th Judicial Circuit, which includes Orlando.
Underwood's father, L.D. Underwood Jr., was a longtime construction superintendent for Drake Contracting in Ocala. He helped build Vanguard High School.
His daughter got a general contractor's license herself and was in the construction business before she enrolled in the University of Florida law school at age 32.
From there, Underwood practiced construction law in the Orlando area. Ten years ago she started her own firm and continued handling construction-related legal matters as an attorney, mediator and arbitrator.
On Sept. 10, Gov. Rick Scott appointed her to the bench.
Underwood has fond memories of growing up in Ocala, which she recalled as "a small town, a very comfortable town."
She went to kindergarten at Wyomina Park (classmates included Superintendent of Schools George Tomyn,) middle school at Fort King, and high school at Vanguard, where she was cheer captain.
Her brother, known to all as De, played football at Ocala High School (Vanguard wasn't built yet) and still lives in Summerfield.
Christi Underwood remembers night games at Booster Stadium, marching in the Christmas Parade, and "all the camaraderie of the neighborhood."
"Those were exciting times," she said.
Underwood's father died in 1991. Her mom, Ann, lives in Winter Park. Her daughter, Jetti Gibson is a U.S. Navy lieutenant and attorney in the Judge Advocate General's Corps.

New report highlights myriad ways skimmer scams are pickpocketing consumers across the globe, from the gas pump to the ATM
New York, N.Y. (February 13, 2014)
A new report out today details how skimmer fraud has proliferated across the globe, ripping off consumers everywhere from the gas pump to the ATM.
According to the report, by ACCA USA, the US arm of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, and Pace University in New York City, United States, criminal enterprises are devising novel ways to steal as skimming devices have become smaller and more sophisticated in terms of power, memory, communication and encryption.
'Skimmer fraud is a huge problem across the world. While skimmers have existed for many years and they have advanced quite considerably over time,' said Pace University Professor Darren Hayes, DPS, who authored the report.
'Without significant steps being taken to combat this activity, it's clear that this type of fraud will continue to escalate.'
'This is a war being fought at the ATM and the gas pump, at the intersection of street crime and tech crime. As criminals become more sophisticated, they are devising creative ways to separate consumers from their cash,' said Warner Johnston, head of ACCA USA.
The report identifies the myriad ways in which skimmer scams are cropping up across the globe.
According to a 2013 Norton Report, the global cost of cybercrime rose to $113 billion (up from $110 billion), with an average cost per victim of $298 (up from $197 in 2012). A significant portion of that cost involves payment card fraud. Estimates indicate that payment card fraud costs the United States $8.6 billion annually. A Q3 2012 ACI Worldwide study of 5,223 consumers in 17 countries reported that a staggering 27% of payment card holders (debit, credit and prepaid).
The Aite Group has reported that in 2011 the average loss from skimming crime $50,000, up by $20,000 from the previous year. And, the U.S. was ranked number one in the world in terms of financial losses associated with skimming fraud in the first six months of 2011, followed by the Dominican Republic, Russia and Brazil.
Skimmer Episodes Around the World
United States: In the United States, in January, Manhattan District Attorney Cy Vance, Jr. announced the indictment of 13 persons charged with operating a multi-million dollar fraud ring that employed Bluetooth-enabled skimmers at gas station pumps. The devices connected directly to a pump's power supply, equipped with a Bluetooth chip allowing thieves to lift stolen data wirelessly.
Canada: Canada has a population of about 35 million. Founded in 1994, Interac is a Canadian-based organization that facilitates electronic financial transactions through their national payment network. The organization was founded by CIBC, Royal Bank of Canada, Scotiabank, TD Bank and Desjardins. They manage 60,000 ATMs and 766,000 POS terminals throughout Canada.
Interac Association announced that all Interac acceptance devices must be EMV-compliant by December 31, 2015. As of October 31, 2012, there are 73.9 million Visa and MasterCard payment cards in circulation in Canada. In 2012, credit card fraud in Canada was $CAD 439.36 million, compared to $CAD 436.59 million in 2011. However, Interac debit card fraud dropped 45%, from $CAD 70 million in 2011 to $CAD 38.5 million. The notable decline in fraud is as a result of enhanced fraud detection analytics, increased law enforcement support and the introduction of EMV.
In 2009, debit card fraud in Canada was estimated to be $142 million, which subsequently declined to $119 million in 2010 and then fell to $70 million by 2011. Visa and MasterCard implemented a domestic liability shift in the first half of 2011, which accounts for the dramatic decline in payment card fraud.
China and Southeast Asia: A number of organized crime groups in China and Southeast Asia have been cloning payment cards and then sending "mules", using forged travel documents, to Western Europe to fraudulently purchase luxury goods, which are then sent back to Asia.
Europe: Skimmer fraud in Europe is different from the United States because of a number of factors. One factor is that ATMs in Europe are for the most part EMV-compliant. Another reason for differences in ATM fraud is that ATMs are often different in the United States. For example, there is a large number of non-bank ATMs in the United States, which are not found in every country. Moreover, Certain ATMs have certain vulnerabilities and the type of ATMs from country to country will vary greatly. According to a report by the European Central Bank (ECB) in July 2013, ATM fraud accounted for 20% of all payment card fraud (€232 million). The report also states that 95% of counterfeit card fraud, related to ATM fraud, occurs outside of Europe.
Ireland: Ireland has a population of approximately 4.58 million. According to the Irish Payment Services Organization (IPSO), in 2011 there were 194 skimming incidents, of which 142 were successful. During 2011, anti-skimming devices were installed on the majority of ATMs. Coupled with an anti-skimming initiative was more vigilance by banks and ATM maintenance workers. Additionally, there were some notable ATM fraud-related arrests by the Gardaí (Irish police).
The outcome was that in 2012 there were only 13 ATM skimming incidents and 12 of those were successful. In 2013, there have been some successful ATM skimmer incidents where an anti-skimming device became inoperable or was incorrectly installed.
An ATM skimmer that was found in Ireland in 2013 is arguably the first stereo skimmer in the world. This find may indicate a new technical advancement for thieves. Most ATMs in Ireland are manufactured by NCR but there are also some Siemens Nixdorf machines. Diebold is virtually non-existent in Ireland and the U.K. All card readers in Ireland are motorized as opposed to the United States where newer ATMs generally have dip readers.
ATM skimmers do account for the majority of skimmers but there are cases of skimmers being used at petrol stations. In 2012, according to IPSO, there were 15 skimmers found at fuel pumps. It appears that these skimmers are less prevalent in Ireland and the U.K. than in Europe because there are far fewer unattended petrol stations in Ireland and the U.K. than in Continental Europe.
According to the report:
• One of the most common types of skimmer is the ATM skimmer, used to record the data contained on the magnetic strip on the back of a consumer's ATM card. A skimmer may be placed on a stand-alone ATM, such as one at a convenience stores or doorway at a bank.
• Security standards with European credit, debit and ATM cards differ from standards in the United States, rendering it easier to conduct skimmer fraud in the U.S.
• The United States is pivotal for criminal gangs because it has more ATMs than another country and because it is not EMV-compliant (cards do not contain a global chip) and its EMV cards skimmed can easily be cloned. Cards that are cloned by criminals are also used in other non-EMV countries, such as Ghana, Costa Rica, Mexico and Malta.
• Handheld skimmers are not an issue in other countries as much as in the U.S. For example, at U.S. restaurants, a waiter takes a credit or debit card and later with a receipt. At European restaurants, a card remains in sight at all times, and a waiter brings a terminal to the table.
• Equipment used in various types of skimming operations is readily available from online sites such as amazon.com and spy stores.
The report offered recommendations to combat skimmer fraud. Financial institutions should speed up the integration of anti-skimming solutions and fraud investigations into their daily operations and improve cooperation with national and international law enforcement to keep up with the increased sophistication and global nature of skimmer schemes. The future of ATM transactions lies in contactless cards, biometric security, and smartphone withdrawals instead of traditional ATM cards.
Meanwhile, customers should:
• Use one hand to cover the keypad while entering their PIN and be careful of criminals "shoulder surfing."
• Regularly monitor their accounts, financial statements, and credit reports to be alerted to skimmer fraud or any type of identity theft.
• Provide financial institutions with up-to-date contact information, including a mobile telephone number.
Additionally, banks should:
• Ensure that ATMs have ample lighting and good visibility.
• Install cameras with ample memory to store video recording suspicious activity at ATMs.
• Ensure that technology is installed to alert them when criminals are fitting overlay devices.

I've seen sites that pick numbers randomly, but can't find anything that will select a set amount from a given list. IE, given 1-100, I'd like to pick 30 random numbers from 1-100. I could program something to do this, but this I don't want to get more involved in this particular project than necessary. I thought there would be something out there already, but haven't found anything. Does anyone know of anything like this?

Look to any number of "dice-rolling" apps. The Dungeons & Dragons Dice Roller offers you the ability to roll any number of dice, including d100 (that's a 100-sided die). I just did it and generated this sequence: 53,63,21,15,42,59,71,52,34,98,60,36,21,64,10,51,25,41,54,9,44,27,16,64,16,82,89,44,83,8. There are lots of these generators out there. Role-playing games are popular and most of them require lots of random number generation.
There's also the cleverly named Random.org. They have a bunch of different number generators. The tool you want would be the Integer Generator. You can define the range, the number of results, and even the number of columns the results are formatted to. I generated this sequence:
On the same site, the Random Sequence Generator does basically the same thing, but doesn't allow numbers to repeat. (Like drawing numbers from a hat, each is discarded after use.)
Wolfram Alpha does this. Here is an example of picking 10 random integers between 1 and 20.

Director Ivan Reitman has stepped down as the brains behind the latest "Ghostbusters" movie.
The 67-year-old, who directed the 1984 ghost-chasing film and its 1989 sequel, helped co-write the script for the latest film and had to tweak the storyline when Harold Ramis, who was set for a small role in the movie, died last month.
Reitman will stay on as a producer.
The film is finally expected to start shooting early next year.
Original Ghostbusters star Dan Aykroyd is slated to return, but his co-star Bill Murray is not.

Arista is a data-driven image annotation system, which annotates an image based on large-scale image search. Its assumption is that close similar images share similar semantics. It targets at a practical image annotation engine which is able to automatically annotate images of any popular concepts. Starting from 2006, Arista is now able to perform online tagging based on 2 billion web images leveraging near-duplicate detection technique.
Background, Motivation and Basic Idea
The key hinder factor of computer vision research is the semantic gap between existing low-level visual features and high-level semantic concepts. Traditional image auto-annotation approaches attempted to directly map visual features to textual keywords. However, since these two types of features are heterogeneous, the intrinsic mapping function is totally in the dark.
Arista adopts a search-to-annotation strategy. Its basic idea is that close-similar images share similar semantics. Leveraging a large-scale partly annotated image database, it annotates an image by first search for a number of close-similar images in the content-based image retrieval framework, and then mine relevant terms/phrases from their surrounding texts. In this way, Arista avoids the semantic gap problem to a certain extent by measuring similarities in homogeneous feature spaces( i.e. image against image and text against text).

Video: Metro's Red Line Delayed By Switch Problem
WASHINGTON (WUSA) -- Metro advised customers to expect abnormally long delays (up to 40 minutes) on the Red Line on Wednesday morning, thanks to a switch problem at Judiciary Square.
Crews worked to replace a piece of rail at the switch point and were clearing the platform around 8:30 a.m. While they were working Red Line trains were single tracking, which caused delays and long lines of people.
Our photographer snapped photos of a big crowd that had formed at Metro Center around 8 a.m. (see above).
Shortly after 10:05 a.m., Metro sent out an alert announcing that normal service had resumed and "residual delays" had cleared on the Red Line.

April 8, 2000
PULLMAN, Wash. -- The number one units on both sides of the ball received most of the work during the two-hour scrimmage Saturday afternoon after hosting a high school coaches clinic in the morning.
"There wasn't anything specific that we wanted to get accomplished," said Cougar head coach Mike Price. "I thought we did a good job. I thought the spirit was good. These guys put in hard back-to-back work days."
Quarterback Jason Gesser did a good job guiding the No. 1 offense, leading the "O" to three scoring drives. Gesser completed 18 of 31 pass attempts for 211 yards and two touchdowns against one interception.
"Jason Gesser played real well today," Price said. "He was much more in demand of the offense. He was calling audibles and getting them in and out of the huddle."
Collin Henderson was Gesser's favorite target on the day, as the sophomore receiver caught seven passes for 77 yards. Milton Wynn and Marcus Williams caught the two Gesser touchdown passes on distances of 41 and 20 yards respectively.
Burnett had the other touchdown for the No. 1 offense on a 1-yard burst. Burnett had 48 yards on 12 carries. Overall the first unit gained 242 yards on 10 possessions. In its three possessions against the first-string defense, the first team offense gained 38 yards and failed to score.
On the defensive side of the ball, the No.1 defense was explosive, collecting five quarterback sacks and one interception. In the 10 drives against the first teamers, only one ended with a touchdown as they yielded only 93 yards.
Defensive tackle Tomasi Kongaika and linebacker James Price led the sack parade with two each and defensive end Austin Matson recorded the other sack. Chris Martin had the lone interception for the No. 1 team.
Linebacker Mike Isaacson had two sacks for the No. 2 defense and Trent Hollimon intercepted a Gesser pass. Other reserve players to play well are wide receiver Anthony Ramos, defensive lineman D.D. Acholonu and quaterback Billy Graffis. Ramos had four catches for 26 yards and one touchdown to go with a punt return of nearly 30 yards. Acholonu recorded another sack, giving him four in three scrimmages. Graffis went 5 for 8 for 37 yards and one touchdown and also had a 16-yard run on third down.
Coach Price said he was pleased with the play of seven freshmen on the defensive side of the ball. Defensive backs Ira Davis, Cole Sheridan, who moved to cornerback on Tuesday, and Hollimon and defensive lineman Tai Tupai, Jeremey Williams, D.D. Acholonu and Isaac Brown.
"Hollimon and Davis are playing better," Price said. "We need them to play better."
The annual Crimson and Gray game will be held next Saturday, April 15 at 11 a.m. in Martin Stadium.
INJURY REPORT: Paul Mencke, Lamont Thompson, Virgil Williams, Adam Davis, Derrick Dillon, Reed Raymond and Fred Shavies were all held out of the scrimmage with injuries. Anthony Adedipe (left shoulder sprain), Dante Minners (neck sprain) and Russell Mizin (right leg/low quad bruise) were injured during the scrimmage and did not return.
Scoring summary - Wynn 41 pass from Gesser, M. Williams 20 pass from Gesser, Philley 7 pass from Kegel, Burnett 1 run, Ramos 5 pass from Graffis.
Rushing - Burnett 12/48, Philley 6/17, Graffis 1/16, Hawkins 1/6, Thielbahr 3/6, Gesser 6/5, J. Williams 2/0, Gould 1/(-1), Nesen 2/(-6), Kegel 6/(-19).

Tivoli Netcool Configuration Manager R6.1 – Giving immediate value to existing
Change today is constant, whether within an individual network or reaching across the entire instrumented, interconnected and intelligent world. And managing change, especially when it comes to network device configuration, is essential.
This need for change management capabilities is particularly important in today's environment of rapid growth in network size, complexity and criticality. Many organizations find that managing configuration is more difficult than ever. While the number of devices that require configuration is increasing, IT resources often remain limited and IT budgets can be flat or declining. Meanwhile, the network is more important than ever to the everyday functions and the continued success of the business.
Without configuration management, errors introduced during change can damage a host of critical operations from provisioning to performance, and from availability to security. Consider the
following questions:
●How do you control who can touch what network device and what commands they are allowed to use on each device?
●Do you maintain a complete log of all changes made to each device and by whom?
●How do you make sure that only syntactically and logically correct commands to be sent to a device?
●How do you enable network engineers to instantly see what changed on a device, who changed it, and when it changed and why?
●How do you know when a device has changed and requires an incremental backup?
●Can you roll back a device without losing service?
●How do you prevent configuration mistakes from happening in your network?
●How do you enforce your network configuration policies?
●Do you have a common scorecard for compliance across the entire network?
●Is your score card updated after every change and in real time?
●How can you do simple, yet comprehensive ad hoc reporting to find today's problem without manually touching devices?
With a configuration and policy management solution, the organization can now meet these challenges and take its network management capabilities to a new level. Configuration management solutions can extend management reach into devices and network areas that need greater attention, for increased network reliability and reduced chance of performance degradation due to error.
Configuration management solutions provide a persistent database that stores physical and logical aspects of the network in one location for use in real-time monitoring of changes and for alerting administrators when a change is incorrect—whether it is causing a functional problem or not. The aim is to ensure that configurations are accurate and changes comply with organizational, and to provide administrators with deep visibility into the network and its devices to help prevent and resolve change-related problems.
Tivoli Netcool Configuration Manager R6.1 complements existing Tivoli Network Management capabilities provided by OMNIbus and Network Manager by adding the ability to make changes, ensure changes are functionally correct & comply with corporate policies and monitor multiple inline and out of band types of changes. With out of the box integration with OMNIbus and Network Manager, Tivoli Netcool Configuration Manager R6.1 provides the ability to see what changed, who changed it and when it changed within the context of existing OMNIbus & Network Manager views and how the changes correlate to network events.

Lezyne Micro Caddy Saddle Bag $0.00
What's the expression? Set it and forget it? Something like that. When was the last time you had a flat, only to realize that you hadn't brought a tube? Has it happened since the last time you heard some know-it-all say 'set it and forget it?' The Lezyne Micro Caddy Saddle Bag will keep your tire levers, CO2 shot, and tube in one place and it will hold them there, uncomplaining, until you need them. Now you'll never have to worry about whether you brought a spare.
The Micro Caddy has some cool stuff going on. The neoprene attachment band dampens vibration so you don't sound like a silverware vendor coming down the trail. Water-resistant zippers keep your goods safe and dry when faced with a sudden unexpected shower. Lezyne even hooked the Micro Caddy up with some reflective stripes to make you more visible if the ride goes longer than expected.
The Lezyne Micro Caddy has a capacity of 40 cubic inches (0.6L) and is available in Black or Black with white trim.

Zipper is beat
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
broken zippers make this a poor choice.
I have gone to another brand after zippers failed to hold up .
Only opened it once to fill it...then i noticed a broken zipper shortly thereafter.
bummer...love all the pockets and thought that went into this bag.
good price but poor zipper
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I bought this about a year ago for $10. I liked the compact size and how it stays nice and tight to the saddle. I didn't have a problem with the velcro or fabric wearing away but the zipper just crapped out on me and I'm betting I only opened and closed it a dozen times tops. So while it was inexpensive I was still hoping to get another 6 months to a year out of it :)
Just enough room
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
29 er tube is tight but it does fit my levers and a co2 pump.
Not sure I would do white again.
Im looking for a small compact saddle back for my mtb (1 tube(26), tire lever, and multitool). Not sure if I should go with S or M. Did you get the small or med?
minimal and practical
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I got the Medium one, and it fits my iphone5 perfectly in terms of width and length, with no extra space left, that gives you an idea of how small the interior is (width and length). I like how it has an external pocket for the tool set, I have the CrankBrothers Multi-19 and it's a little too big for the pocket, but i can still barely close it. The zipper is kinda tight, it's not a bag I would prefer to use for everyday taking things in and out of, but it's great for tool and emergency stuff.
Material is nice and it feels very secure with the way the mount is. This is good for someone looking for minimal and practical.
Nice Little Pack for minimal needs
I have the older Small version with the nylon (or what have you) strap.
Great bang for the buck. Sturdy construction, I haven't had any issues with the weather proofing, and the reflective trim is a nice touch.
Packs tight with 1 tube, 1 CO2 cartridge & trigger, pair of levers, patch kit, and small multi-tool.
My only gripe is that I pretty much need to take it off to get at the contents. That is the trade-off for such a low-profile bag. As little as I need to get into the bag, it is only a minor inconvenience.
Great for dropper seatposts
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I've always used a seat bag however the typical attachment for a seat bag doesn't work with a dropper. The micro caddy works wonders with a dropper. The bag only attaches to the saddle rails and not the seatpost. So get that dropper on your XC hardtail and now enjoy going downhill.
Good design, bad quality
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
The size, shape, and attachment style of this bag seemed perfect -- and they were for six months -- but then the zipper broke. Looking at it now, I think the curved line of the zipper mixed with the rubberized/water-resistant zipper cover is a recipe for failure.
I had this same issue. It's great for dropper posts, but the zipper exploded. I suspect I overstuffed it, but I feel like a "medium" seat bag should be able to hold a tube, two CO2 cartridges, a tiny inflator, and a multitool without self-destructing.
Lezyne micro caddy
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Good little bag! Fits 1-29" tube, 2-20oz co2, inflater, tire lever, small multi tool. Everything you need for a short trail ride.
Best seat bag yet - no shorts rub!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I use the small on my road bike and the medium on my mtb - perfect size for each to carry just what's necessary (tube, tire levers, patch, kit, CO2 cartridge and chuck, folding tool - and der cables and small bolts for my mtb).
Attaches very securely to the saddle - no scrotum-like schwing.
It doesn't wrap around the seatpost so your expensive bibshorts don't rub against the bag and turn fuzzy, frayed or bare.
'L' series bag in Large...
By the time I finally got a camera and was able to take a pic, it seems this model is temp. sold-out. So, when it becomes available again, I would recommend it, and that you order the "Large", because, it really isn't!
Great little bag. Holds 2 tubes and necessary tools. Gets some of the weight out of the hydration pack, so that's good!
Label reads:
" Designed in California/made in China".
Liked it, but too small
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
I bought the Medium sized Lezyne saddle bag to use while road biking. Wanted enough space to fit a 700X23 tube, tire levers, 16oz CO2 cartridge and small Planet Kiss inflator, chain tool, wallet, iphone and cleat protectors. This saddle bag will NOT come even close to fitting all this. Besides the fitment issue I really liked the quality and design of this product.
a necissary evil
Honestly not a big fan of any saddle bag, but this was a nice compromise. Went with the Small and was pleased at how neatly and securely it tucks directly beneath the saddle. While you should expect a pretty snug fit, the Small should fit a single tube, a C02 cartridge + inflator, and a pair of levers. There's also a clever external pouch on the underside of the straps for your multi-tool, which is especially handy as it grants quick access to this regularly-needed tool without forcing you to dig through the pouch. Bear in mind that if you plan on carrying your phone or any snacks in the pouch, I would recommend getting the Medium size.
Good bag, but stick with black
I've had the small white for a couple of months now. I've got a tube, levers and patch kit inside, with a multi-tool in its separate pocket. It fastens securely, and I never feel it moving, or rubbing my legs. I guess my complaints come from having the white version. It experienced its first rainfall the other day, and the next time I rode, I noticed that it had developed brown-ish spots on the white material where there are tools inside. I know it's picky, but it just looks dirty. Also, the white zipper seems to be fading to a yellow-ish tint from the sun.
I like the bag, but if I had to do it again, I'd go with black.
Sometimes you just dont know....
Previously, i gave this bag high marks....I guess it is because I never needed it before today.
I flatted and went for my tube in my Lezyne bag.
UNFORTUNATELY, there was a hole in my bag (i suppose from rubbing against my seatpost?).
This compounded my flat tire problem. Why? Because there was a hole in my bag, there was a huge hole in my tube.
Super lame! I am really disappointed. I pimp lezyne pumps, the fire break hydropack, patch kits, levers, etc...but to be let down by a product thta is to add security is inexcusable.
fits great! functions well! carries what you need!
excellent bag so far; doesn't rub my legs and looks good on the bike (as well as a seat bag can, at least). my only gripe is that i wish the velcro didn't bulk up so much at the bottom; makes it bigger than needed and spoils the sleek look somewhat.
this easily fits one road tube, lezyne sv10, two CO2 carts, lezyne trigger drive head, park patch kit, sram powerlink, tire boot and tire lever. and that's without using the external multitool pouch. people who say it's not big enough are either carrying too much with them or not packing it well!
if you're going to carry a seat bag, i highly recommend this one. you could do much worse.
What size are you referring to?
i was referring to the size small.
Sleek and compact
I bought this saddle bag for my husband and it is very sleek and compact. It was easy to attach and has a very convenient tool pouch for his Lezyne tool. It is a very tight fit inside the main compartment, has enough room to hold two levers, one tube, two carbon dioxide tubes, and a very small CO2 pump.
Good, not great bag
I like the velcro enclosure on this bag. It keeps the bag secure and snug under the saddle. I do not worry about losing it over rough roads.
There is enough room for a tube, patch kit, and a slimline tool, perfect.
The downfall comes in form of the material. After 6 months of use, there is already a hole in the tope of the bag (I guess from rubbing the saddle?) I thought it might be more durable.
The stitching is coming undone now....i would like to exchange this bag. The size form is great. Maybe i had bad lcuk and recieved the runt of a litter?
Lezyne Micro Caddy Saddle Bag
Great bag! Does fits neatly undet the seat and does not interfere with my inner leg. It's tight though, I was able to get one road tube, one pair of surgical gloves, and two air inflators inside. The Lezyne multi tool fits in a separate pouch underneath.
Seat bag on my bike
Nice Bag
I have ridden about 50 miles over fairly rocky terrain and this bag has held up great. It doesn't look like there are any signs of serious wear. The bag attaches to your seat using neoprene and velcro straps - they are surprisingly sturdy. It has a little outer pocket for your multitool. I have a Crank Brothers tool that is as big as you can with that pocket. It seems like it is a quick access type thing, but with the main body packed, it is hard to get the multitool out. The inside fits a CO2 cracker, extra CO2 cartridge (in addition to the one in the cracker), thin 26" spare tube, and Pedro's large yellow tire levers. I jammed a patch kit inards and powerlink in there too. It is real tight, but zipped shut and is pretty much perfect as an emergency toolkit when I don't want to wear a pack.
Is this a small or medium pouch?

The mule and the lamb
Next decade challenge | George Friedman offers a compelling analysis of the next decade internationally, but he doesn't take into account the most powerful force of all
George Friedman-CEO of Stratfor (Strategic Forecasting, Inc.), sometimes called "the Shadow CIA"-may be the most brilliant writer on foreign policy since Niccolo Machiavelli. His new book, The Next Decade, which Doubleday plans to publish on Jan. 25, lucidly lays out the international challenges that U.S. presidents face. I've read Friedman books and Stratfor reports, dined with him half a dozen times, and see him as a genius "under the sun," as Ecclesiastes would put it-but he doesn't account for the Son.
Let's begin comparing a Christian view of the world to Friedman's by starting where Friedman starts: theater. He lifts the curtain on The Next Decade with a quotation from Ronald Reagan: "We cannot play innocents abroad in a world that is not innocent." He notes that the 40th president was decisively shrewd in his battle with the Soviet empire but content to let his liberal opponents characterize him as an amiable dunce: Reagan's best acting role came in the White House, and Friedman contends that every president needs to be a thespian.
Friedman argues that current American debate about "whether the United States should be an empire is meaningless. It is an empire"-and on that he's right. Friedman's understanding of the previous world empire, the British one, is also acute: "Old-school imperialists didn't rule by main force. Instead, they maintained their dominance by setting regional players against each other. . . . The lesson we should have learned from the British is that there are far more effective, if cynical, ways to manage wars in Asia and Europe. One is by diverting the resources of potential enemies away from the United States and toward a neighbor."
Let me state that proposition more nastily than any support-seeking president or author ever would, publicly: The goal of U.S. foreign policy should be to have ambitious leaders, and their human puppets, kill each other so they don't kill Americans. For that purpose a president should work to "create alliances in which the United States maneuvers other countries into bearing the major burden of confrontation or conflict."
Friedman says the "Machiavellian president" we need should be "a master at managing illusions," able to "conduct a ruthless, unsentimental foreign policy" by playing "to the public's sentimentality while moving policy beyond it." Friedman criticizes both Presidents Bush and Obama not for speaking in high-minded ways-that's part of their job description-but for engaging in "ad hoc adventures . . . as if they believed their own rhetoric."
An effective president, Friedman argues, maintains "a ruthless sense of proportion while keeping the coldness of his calculations to himself." Is he immoral? No, Friedman says: "The realities of geopolitics do not give presidents the luxury of exercising virtue in the way we think of it when applied to ordinary citizens."
Friedman proposes "a definition of virtue that violates our common notions of what virtue is." Truth-telling? The virtuous president will lie. Loyalty to those who have trusted us? "The United States made promises to Georgia [the ex-Soviet republic in the Caucasus] that it now isn't going to keep. But when we look at the broader picture, this betrayal increases America's ability to keep other commitments." Compassion toward the suffering in places such as Africa? Fine for some to be charitable if they give intelligently, but Friedman's chapter heading is "AFRICA: A PLACE TO LEAVE ALONE. . . . Ultimately, the United States has no overwhelming interest in Africa."
Friedman's ideal president seems a little like the Empress Jadis and Uncle Andrew (in C.S. Lewis' The Magician's Nephew) justifying their selfishness by saying, "Ours is a high and lonely destiny"-except that a U.S. president really is high and lonely. Friedman is not lustily advocating immorality: He writes, "The moral compass must be there, but it points in many directions." He's advocating the morality of a general who sacrifices some soldiers so that others may live. He's advocating the morality of Abraham Lincoln who spoke of binding up the nation's wounds but in 1864 was "doing the arithmetic" of wounding and killing: If thousands of Union soldiers (who could be replaced) die and take into their graves thousands of Confederates (who could not be), the North wins.
Friedman loves America, the country that gave him shelter at age 3 after his parents, Holocaust survivors, escaped from Hungary in 1949 (see "Shadow wonk," WORLD, Jan. 31, 2009). Like Lincoln, he wants the United States to act forcefully to survive: "During war, understanding power means that crushing the enemy quickly and thoroughly is kinder than either extending the war through scruples or losing the war through sentimentality." The United States must unblinkingly do what it should do to survive and thrive: "The unsentimental approach means breaking free of the entire Cold War system of alliances and institutions, including NATO, the International Monetary Fund, and the United Nations."
And, lest we think that it's wrong for a U.S. president to be a posing actor, Friedman stipulates that leaders of other countries regularly lie. For example, Friedman argues that drug money is crucial to the Mexican economy, and drug violence is concentrated along the border, not in the populated heartland of Mexico. On balance, Mexico benefits from the drug traffic, so Mexican leaders "give the appearance of trying to stop the drug trade while making certain that all significant efforts fail. This keeps the U.S. mollified while making certain that the money continues to pour in."
Theater, theater, theater. Friedman's revision of morality presents a profound challenge to a Christian view of the world: If the Christian understanding is that our lives are both worse and better than we normally suspect-we're both more sinful and more loved than we imagine-then Friedman has the sinful part right. With many of his relatives killed in the Holocaust, he does not see any reason to be honest when Nazis come to the door asking if Jews are hiding inside. He wants to kill them before they kill the relatives-or better yet, maneuver evildoers (and that's much of the world) into killing each other.
Friedman, in his single New Testament reference within The Next Decade, quotes part of the famous chapter 13 of 1 Corinthians: "When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I gave up childish ways." He does not quote another part: "Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends."
What does that mean, applied to international relations? It doesn't mean nonviolence: Another chapter 13, of the book of Romans, gives rulers a sword to carry out God's "wrath on the wrongdoer." But it also doesn't mean that patience and kindness are childish things, with love to be treated as one four-letter word among others: Granted, evil dictators deserve their comeuppance, yet their wars kill many who are innocent. It's not easy to say how Christian presidents should act-Friedman rightly notes that "two presidents who attempted to pursue virtue directly, Jimmy Carter and George W. Bush, failed spectacularly"-but they will be aware of a deeper drama.
Friedman and I both grew up reading Isaac Asimov's Foundation novels, frequently named the best science fiction series ever. In it the prognostications of a brilliant social scientist are torn asunder by the emergence of the Mule, a telepathic freak with the ability to reach into the minds of others and "adjust" their emotions: The Mule, emerging from a miserable childhood and out to take revenge on humanity, conquers much of the galaxy.
Friedman is right to think of the world as a theater, but he does not understand that it is a theater of God. Throughout the Old Testament God regularly raises up kings and smashes empires, sometimes using evil rulers-such as the Syrian king Hazael-to do His bidding. In the New Testament someone far greater than the Mule takes center stage: The Lamb, Jesus, is able to "turn the hearts of fathers to their children and the hearts of children to their fathers."
The coming of Christ means that the world is not a Hobbesian struggle of all against all with no supernatural intervention possible, war without end, amen. Friedman does not mention the way that Christ has turned tens of millions of Chinese hearts toward their Father in heaven: If more and more Chinese turn to Christ, they will change that country and the future of the world. Perhaps our official foreign policy should ignore Africa, but another foreign policy is going on simultaneously, led by missionaries, evangelists, entrepreneurs, and compassionate helpers-and that, within God's plan, may tell us more about the long-range future.
Friedman's sensational work takes us part of the way to understanding the theater of international politics and letting us see the harsh reality behind honeyed words. In Isaac Asimov's fiction the Mule dies in his 30s, and his empire disintegrates. In God's reality the Lamb dies in his 30s and lives forever, creating a different and deeper reality.
A simplified (sometimes oversimplified) version of Friedman's analysis:
Afghanistan: The Taliban will rule it once again.
Africa: Ignore.
Baltic countries: Use them as bargaining chips with Russia.
Brazil & Argentina: Ideally, they are counterweights to each other.
China & Japan: Ditto.
Germany & Russia: Ditto.
India & Pakistan: Ditto.
Iraq & Iran: Ditto, but for now develop a détente with Iran.
Israel: Disengage (Israel no longer needs U.S. aid, anyway).
Jordan, Egypt: They function in effect as allies of Israel.
Most of Latin America: Largely ignore.
Poland: Support it as "a bone in the throat of both Germany and Russia."
Saudi Arabia: Use Iran to scare its rulers.
Turkey: Make sure it and Iran do not form an alliance.
Georgia: Throw it under the Russian train.

Comments about Walther UMAREX Steel Force Air Machine Gun:
Solid, good fun to shoot. Six round auto bursts or single this is a great gun. Would be better if magazine capacity was bigger than 30 rounds and reloading the 30 round magazine is kinda funky. Other than that it's an excellent buy.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (KSDK) - Gov. Jay Nixon declared a state of emergency Tuesday in wake of flash flooding in south-central Missouri that has left a 4-year-old boy dead and forced dozens of people out of their homes.
"Parts of southern Missouri have been hit with heavy rain for several days, causing deadly flash-flooding, and that threat is not over," Nixon said in a news release. "We have moved resources into the region to assist local authorities, but it is extremely important for the public in affected areas to pay close attention to weather conditions, have an evacuation plan and immediately move to higher ground if needed."
Nixon met with emergency response and elected officials from Pulaski County and Waynesville Tuesday morning, according to a news release.
The Missouri State Highway Patrol has deployed additional marine operations troopers, a rescue helicopter and other assets to the region to assist emergency responders. These resources will remain in place until the threat has passed.
Nixon's executive order activates the Missouri State Emergency Operations Plan, which allows state agencies to coordinate directly with local jurisdictions to provide emergency services.
Fort Leonard Wood's east gate is closed due to high water from excessive rainfall and runoff.

He attended Lymm High School until his father suddenly died when he was 12.

Auckland, New Zealand (Sports Network) - Top-seeded Agnieszka Radwanska beat
Belgian Yanina Wickmayer, 6-4, 6-4 on Saturday to claim the ASB Classic title.
The Poland native Radwanska captured her 11th career WTA championship, this
one on hardcourts.
After securing a relatively easy first-set win, Radwanska led the second set,
5-2 before Wickmayer battled back to make it 5-4.
In the decisive game, Wickmayer fought off several match points, but was
eventually denied what could have been her fourth career win and second ASB
title in four years. She won this event in 2010 and was the runner-up in 2011.
Saturday's finale marked the third head-to-head meeting between the pair as
Radwanska now holds a 2-1 edge.
Radwanska earned a 6-4, 6-4 win at the 2011 French Open, but Wickmayer
prevailed with a 1-6, 7-6 (8-6), 7-5 triumph at the 2010 Fed Cup.Radwanska
improved to 11-4 lifetime in finals.
Radwanska will collect $40,000 for winning this tournament, which serves as a
tuneup for the Australian Open, which starts January 14.

Peter's shot 38.1 percent from the field in the opening 20 minutes and went
without a free throw attempt.

Washington, DC (Sports Network) - Daniel Murphy went 4-for-5, homered twice
and knocked in five runs to back an excellent performance from Jenrry Mejia,
as the New York Mets took the opener of a day-night doubleheader with ease in
an 11-0 romping of the Washington Nationals.
Murphy's second career multi-homer game was more than enough for Mejia (1-0),
who stifled the Nationals in his season debut with seven strikeouts over a
seven impressive scoreless innings.
New York has won five of its last seven and will go for the sweep of the
twinbill when it hands the ball over to ace Matt Harvey later on Friday night.
Jordan Zimmermann (12-6) had gone 22 straight starts without losing at home,
but has now dropped two in a row after being tagged for five runs on six hits
over 6 2/3 frames. He struck out eight and gave up both of Murphy's home runs.
The slumping Nationals managed just eight hits while dropping their 11th game
in 14 outings.

Be the Change You Wish to See
The size dimensions given are for the full design. The first number is always the width (or, side-to-side), from the furthest left point of the design, to the furthest right. The second number is always the height (or, up-and-down), from the highest point of the design, to the lowest.
In this first example, which includes multiple lines of text and an embellishment, you can see that the height (second number) is inclusive of the whole design, and not individual lines or letters.
In this second example, which only has one line of text, you can see that the height (second number) starts at the top of the tallest letter (often letters with ascenders, such as: b, d, f, h, etc.), and extends to the bottom of the lowest letter (usually letters with descenders, such as y, j, g, etc.), and does not represent the height of any individual letters. It is the measurement of the whole design.
Please measure your space before ordering to ensure the size you choose will fit well in your space. Keep in mind that the sizes we offer for each design range considerably, from very small (to fit on a plaque or door) to very large (to extend the full width of a king size bed, for example). Not all sizes will work well in all applications, so it's important to measure your space and choose the size which will compliment the space and the room.

text: Tag eating update... well, yesterday wrapped up my big game seasons here in Wyoming. Ofer on elk, prongies, and deer! Found a (insert T.V. tag line here) buck two weekends ago and hunted him both of the last two weekends. Long story short, I helped two of my buddies fill tags while I struck out. The buck was either too far (huntin' with old school heirloom rifle) or as in the case this weekend just never gave me a shot opportunity. Ohhh well. On the other side of the coin my eight month old lab puppy is becoming a great pheasant and duck dog! There are bigger things.

However, new messages are not used in any case. We have tested:

- Modifiying original ZsMsg.properties with several changes.
But now changes are displayed when receiving mail notifications.
Of course, zimbra has been restarted to apply new changes.

Cyclones Fall To Texas Tech, 6-1
AMES, Iowa- The Iowa State tennis team (8-11, 0-6 Big 12) lost to Texas Tech (13-7, 3-3 Big 12), 6-1, in the last home match of the season at the Forker Tennis Courts.
Texas Tech earned the doubles point early taking down all three Cyclone pairs. Head coach Armando Espinosa thought that playing outdoors for the first time at home had a negative effect on his Cyclone team in doubles play.
"I thought that we were pretty flat during doubles," Espinosa said. "The wind was more of a factor in doubles play than it was in singles."
In singles action, freshman Samantha Budai shined at the No. 2 spot, taking down the Red Raiders' Rashmi Teltumbde, 6-4, 6-3.
"[Budai] beat a very good player," Espinosa said. "I hope that that's kind of the step we need to take for her in order for her to understand what the game is and what it takes to win at the Big 12 level."
The Cyclones will continue Big 12 action next weekend in Oklahoma as they take on No. 23 Oklahoma State and Oklahoma.

To the editor:
In regard to all these cuts the president and Congress want, not once have I read where the president or Congress took a pay cut. What about their high retirements?
What about Air Force One and the price of gas it uses � or is that provided to the White House for free? Instead of all these vacations, how about limiting its use to important, official business only?
Leave our military alone as they have a job to do. Or does our government want another 9-11 or Pearl Harbor?
Next they�ll be cutting our military doctors and staff. Veterans and families pay a high price for our care, and the same could be said for the police and fire departments.
Take enough benefits and protections away and there might not be any military or emergency services at all � then what?

|Warner hospitalized following accident
|Written by Holyoke Enterprise
Seth Warner, 26, of Holyoke, is in stable condition in the intensive care unit at Swedish Medical Center in Englewood following a Sept. 23 accident near St. Francis, Kan.
