COLLEGE PARK, Md. (WUSA) -- Prince George's County Police arrested 21-year-old Demonte Antonio Spearman on Wednesday for attempted robbery in College Park, officials said.
Police say on Jan. 27, Spearman approached a man inside a common area of an apartment complex, located in the 8100 block of Baltimore Ave., and displayed what appeared to be a fake gun.
Spearman demanded the man's laptop, who is a University of Maryland student, but the victim refused and attempted to fight the suspect off, police say.
According to police, Spearman fled the scene when a witness came into the room and tried to break up the fight. No one was hurt.

After I upgraded to 4.0, my inbox started getting wiped. At first I thought it might be Cingular doing that via my blackberry. Sometime between my upgrade and me noticing, Cingular also changed how their service works. However, there's no place to check the settings on the frigging service to see if it's set to delete or not delete messages. It appears to happen sometime in the middle of the night. BTW, they are using IMAP now instead of POP.
Is there somewhere that I can check to see what connection is issuing the delete message command?
In the meantime, I've turned off the blackberry's access to my account.
Also, is there a location where an administrator can go and un-delete recently deleted messages ala Exchange (looking around to see if lightning is going to strike me for saying that word in this place :-)

In roadracing, we strive to find a competitive edge over our rivals, whether it is in braking, horsepower, more-effective gearing or suspension. Something you don't want to leave out of this equation is fuel. Arguably, the best and easiest way to get the most out of your engine, whether it is stock or fully race tuned, is to run the proper fuel. One company built around that concept is VP Racing Fuels, which formulates and sells race fuel in a number of blends.
I had the opportunity to test VP's MR12 and T-4 fuels.
The MR12 blend is easier to use and shouldn't require too much tweaking or remapping. Depending on track conditions and weather, MR12 can almost be used as easily as pump fuel—but with more punch.
T-4 is a stronger fuel. You'll likely need to remap for the best performance. If you have never mapped your bike or are unfamiliar with mapping, then you will want to go to your local performance shop for this step. Once you get the mapping done, you will see and feel the difference.
My first experience was with the MR12 blend. The fuel delivered a good, strong punch from the lower mid-range until almost toward red line. I then switched to the T-4, which offered a noticeable power boost throughout the range. I do not recommend using this fuel on worn-out tires!
Neither fuel caused inconsistent power delivery. It was relatively smooth with no unexpected dips or surges throughout the RPM range. In fact, consistency is another major benefit of not just VP, but any race fuel. It is much more dependable than pump gas, where sometimes you may not be sure what you're getting, especially if you buy your fuel at different stations.
I can find no downside to either fuel, except for the obvious additional cost. Plus, once you've experienced what a quality race fuel can offer, it will be hard to go back to relatively inexpensive pump gas.
Of course, check with your particular series to make sure VP fuel is approved for competition.
Either MR12 or T-4 can be purchased directly from VP fuels at www.vpracingfuels.com or from your local distributor.

Apparently the Brits are having a field day with all the rumored reasons for the breakup between their boy Andy Murray and his now ex-girlfriend, Kim Sears.
First there was talk of Muzz dating the current Miss Scotland Katharine Brown. NOW, The Telegraph is reporting the breakup was caused by the long hours the 22-year old spent on his PlayStation. No, really. A source close to Kim told UK gossip rag The Sun,
"He would spend all his time glued to them. In the end she just got fed up with it. She wanted more out of the relationship."Thanks Mysterious Source.
I don't know how much we should read into these rumors. I mean, the Brits do LURVE their gossip, as do I, but they take it to whole other level.
However, if it turns out to be true, I hope PlayStation will keep Muzz warm at night. And support him from the stands.

Twenty-four-year-old Claudia Gilmore didn't just want to survive breast cancer, she wanted to pre-vive a cancer diagnosis. Because her grandmother and father carried the breast cancer gene mutation, she knew her risk was high so she had a prophylactic mastectomy.
"I just can't believe it...I did it. I reduced my risk by 90% ...it was such a surreal moment," said Gilmore.
On the other hand, Debbie Fornwalt had no family history and thought her personal risk was average, so she had annual mammograms. She found a cancerous lump through a Breast Self Exam
"They say look for a marble or a lump," stated Fornwalt. "Mine actually felt like a piece of clothesline rope...it was about this long and about this wide."
Doing a BSE helped Debbie find her cancer at an early stage.
But in 2011, women continue to get mixed messages, seemingly on a daily basis, about when and how often to have screening mammograms and if breast self exams were even worthwhile.
Dutch researches concluded that regular mammograms can cut a woman's risk of dying in half. But another study from Canada says Asymptomatic women should avoid routine screening until after age 50 and then only every 2-3 years. That same study said women shouldn't bother with breast self exams or routine clinical exams. And for women at average risk aged 50-69, and women aged 70-74, the timetable for routine screening with mammography can be every two to three years.
Some critics say the guidelines could costs women their lives.
Cancer specialist Dr. Sara Sukumar of the Kimmel Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins finds fault with the directive on self breast exams.
Dr. Sukumar told us, "I do believe that breast self exams should be a part of a woman's routine because she knows her body best."
But Dr. Sukumar does agree with the reasoning behind the mammography recommendations under very specific conditions.
"For those women who are at high risk, family history of breast cancer, they've discovered BRCA 1 and 2 in the family, the guidelines need to be quite different. But for the public at large, 2-3 years should be quite sufficient to discover new breast cancers," stated Dr. Sukumar.
Before making any decision on how or when to screen, every woman should resolve in 2012 to learn her own individual risk for breast cancer. Make that appointment now to have a serious discussion with your primary care doctor or gynecologist.

She graduated from Toronto's Burnhamthorpe Collegiate High School in 1969, and briefly considered attending the city's York University. However, she wanted to become a working actress, rather than study acting in college, so she auditioned for the Second City improvisational comedy troupe and passed the audition. Although she initially served as understudy to Gilda Radner, O'Hara's stint with Second City eventually took her to the main ensemble in Chicago, and when Radner left the troupe for "Saturday Night Live," O'Hara eased into her spot.

Why Boston-Area Hospitals Have A Big Range In C-Section Rates
Though only performed on women, Cesarean sections — the incision in a woman's abdomen and uterus through which doctors deliver a baby — have become the most common surgery in the U.S.
Many health care experts grimace at this news. Research shows a C-section can have negative consequences for both the mom and the baby. And though childbirth experts have been pushing to reduce C-sections, their sense of urgency has not spread to many doctors or moms, who say C-sections are an important option in the process of delivering a healthy baby.
So are C-sections really that bad? Lots of women have one. It's generally considered low-risk surgery. You can barely see the scars these days. And there's some dispute about whether they really cost a lot more than a normal vaginal delivery.
So if you're wondering why some people get worked up about rising C-section rates, listen to Dr. Catherine Spong, with the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development. She says birth is a natural process that prepares a baby to enter the world.
"If you have a Cesarean delivery without any labor, without going through any of those processes, sometimes [babies] have problems with that transition because they haven't undergone all of those physiologic changes," Spong says.
There's a growing body of evidence that children born by C-section are more at risk for asthma, type 1 diabetes and obesity. And there are risks for the mom, so preventing first-time births by C-section is particularly important.
"Once you've had a Cesarean and you have an incision in the uterus, that incision could open, called uterine rupture," Spong says. "That can be catastrophic for both mom and that subsequent baby."
The odds of that rupture and other bleeding problems are not high, but go up with each birth.
The federal government had hoped to cap Cesarean sections at 15 percent of all births by 2010, but the country blew right past number. In Massachusetts, 23 percent of first-time moms have C-sections. But within the state there's a big range.
In the Boston area, Cambridge Hospital has the lowest rate of C-sections, at 15 percent, according to data collected by the state Department of Public Health. Tufts Medical Center has the highest rate, with 30 percent, but that's only slightly more than other prestigious teaching hospitals, such as Brigham and Women's and Beth Israel Deaconess.
The gap in rates may have something to do with the culture of these hospitals.
At Cambridge, Tufts Hospitals
The culture of childbirth at Cambridge Hospital begins in a Victorian house, across a driveway from the main hospital lobby. It's the Cambridge Birth Center. Both the hospital and birth center are part of Cambridge Health Alliance.
The center is as close to a homebirth as you can get without staying home. Dr. Kate Harney, the hospital's chief of obstetrics and gynecology, walks up a winding staircase into a room with big windows, painted a soft blue. She sits down on a four-poster bed covered with a diamond-pattern quilt.
The room "has all the emergency equipment," Harney says, but it's "nicely hidden away."
Only about 10 percent of pregnant women who come to Cambridge Hospital give birth in this house. Most women choose a more traditional experience in the main hospital. But Harney says the natural birth focus of the center sets the tone for all hospital deliveries.
"A lot of patients are initially drawn to us here because of our birth center," Harney says, "so that affects how we care for patients in the hospital. We all have to be philosophically and medically ready to take care of women who have this approach to childbirth."
This approach includes:
- An obstetrician, or OB, assigned to the hospital's labor and delivery unit 24 hours a day. OBs at Cambridge Hospital don't race back and forth between patients in the office and patients in labor, a pressure doctors in many hospitals with high C-section rates face.
- Using family doctors and midwives, who are not trained to do C-sections, to perform almost half the births at Cambridge Hospital.
- Holding off on induced labor until two weeks after a woman's due date. Earlier inductions that don't progress to full labor are tied to C-sections.
- Using doulas, or birth coaches, to assist in about a quarter of all deliveries.
Harney says doulas are one way the hospital helps women who aren't ready for a long labor to get through it.
"Women expect to come in and deliver in a few hours," she says, "and what's realistic is that most labors are 12-24 hours. Patients always think it's going to be faster than it is."
There's a culture of avoiding C-sections at Cambridge Hospital that goes beyond the medical benefits. Jessey Buinicki, the hospital's nurse manager for maternity services, has been encouraging women to deliver vaginally for 20 years and has three daughters who are moms.
"It's been very empowering, it's changed them from girls to women almost," Buinicki says. "In our society we don't look at that, we're all clinical and everything, but still the basic idea that you're giving birth to your child is huge and should have more weight than maybe it does."
Cambridge Hospital does not have a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, or NICU. So moms with high-risk deliveries who go to Cambridge would likely be sent to another teaching hospital in Boston, such as Tufts Medical Center, which does have a NICU.
Dr. Sabrina Craigo, the director of maternal fetal medicine at Tufts, says the NICU helps explain why its C-section rate is 30 percent.
"We do 1,100 to 1,200 deliveries a year and at least half of those are high risk," Craigo says. "But those that are complicated, there's just a higher risk of having a C-section."
Craigo sits in the hospital's NICU amid tiny babies nestled in heated incubators, hooked up to tubes and monitors. Fifty-five percent of babies here, on average, were delivered via a C-section. Tufts, unlike Cambridge, does not use midwives. The hospital does make every effort, says Craigo, to avoid a C-section and she agrees that C-section rates are an important quality marker. But Craigo says comparing rates for smaller hospitals that are not equipped to care for premature babies and high-risk pregnancies may make more sense.
"Certainly the very high C-section rate in a community setting should raise your concerns," Craigo says, offering advice for pregnant women. "The 24 weekers [very early babies] are not being delivered in any of the community hospitals, so I think that is a distinction," between the community hospitals and Tufts or other teaching hospitals.
C-Section Research
But when researchers filter out the high-risk babies and just look at moms whose babies were in position for a normal vaginal delivery, some hospitals are still doing C-sections at almost three times the rate of other hospitals in Massachusetts. Why? No one seems to know.
Dr. Neel Shah, an OB at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, says time pressures in some hospitals may lead to more C-sections.
"The decision that we're talking about is the difference between something that takes a lot of time and effort [a vaginal birth] and something that takes a lot less time and effort [a C-section]," he says.
Shah heads a new project that's mapping the decisions leading up to a C-section. It's under the guidance of Dr. Atul Gawande, whose surgical checklists have reduced complications and deaths around the world.
Shah says research shows that a physician's fear of a lawsuit does not explain the difference in C-section rates. Could it be that there are more older mothers, or more women having twins, or more women who are obese, or more women with a disease that complicates their pregnancy?
These factors may help explain why women are having C-sections, but they do not explain why some doctors do more C-sections than others. Shah is reviewing the theory that C-sections have risen with the use of fetal health monitors.
He told a roomful of physicians at Beth Israel Deaconess last fall that something is wrong with childbirth practices in the U.S. because, "You guys are on the only continent on the planet with an increasing maternal mortality rate."
Shah says there's no proof that C-sections are the cause of rising death rates for moms during childbirth. There could be many factors. But researchers say the risk of ruptures and bleeding that increases with every additional C-section is under scrutiny. And hospitals are under increasing pressure to reduce C-sections. Public and private insurance plans are beginning to tie penalties or bonus payments to C-section rates.
There are many cases in which C-sections are the only safe way to deliver a baby. But if you are young and healthy and the hospital you plan to use does more C-sections than others in your area, you might talk to your doctor about why.
Check out our interactive tool to see how Cesarean section rates and four other childbirth quality measures differ at every hospital that performs deliveries in Massachusetts.

What do you think about this product?
Have questions about this product?
A little difficult to figure out....
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
But fun to play with once you do! Shoots high quality video, picks up good sound. Seems pretty durable. Stoked to play with it some more!
not to shabby
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
If you dont want to look like a teletubbie out on the hill with a Gopro this is the next best option, with things only looking better for contour in the future are they progress once again with the 3. im excited too see quality get better etc. but this thing is great bang for the buck
Low profile, best look in a helmet cam
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I've used this camera for the past year and I love how versatile it is. I've never used a case as it is waterproof up to a meter deep. Pretty sure I've gone deeper with it jumping off cliffs into water and have had no problems with it's waterproofing. I like that you can mount this camera on the side of your helmet, or on top, and it has a much lower profile look to it than any other helmet cam that I've seen. It's super easy to use, one on and off switch and you are good to go! Keeping it simple so you don't miss the shot! Love the color ways and the Contour app is sweet to line up your shot and adjust the camera if needed. I've taken this camera skiing, mountain biking, climbing, cliff jumping, river rafting, and paddle boarding...it's gone through the wringer!!!!
Great camera for a once great company
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Love using my contour camera and enjoy getting out to film with it every chance I get. Hopefully will be able to pick up a few more while they are still in stock. Great camera to have around and be able to play with.
RIP Contour
Contour has ceased operations as of August 2nd, therefore the 180 manufacturer warranty no longer exists, nor will there be product support.
I refuse to become a go-pro-bro... Time to buy an extra Contour while there are still some left in stock.
Cool camera
We have one of these at my work we use to capture some sick footage when we take people out for the weekend like caving and such. really neat and easy to use, simple point and shoot, but heads up, we put a case on our sometimes and there is pretty much no sounds
Hey David, which case are you using?
I believe it the contour GPS waterproof case
Great camera
I bought this camera so I could take videos of my trip to Canada. Used it for the river rafting and was very pleased with what I recorded. I would tell everyone to buy this!
ROAM2 and HERO3 while snowboarding
Here is me and my friends riding at the Eagle Point Ski Resort. I made the video for the memory since Eagle Point is pretty far from me to drive to, and I'm taking it easy because I'm shredding with injured ribs. The ROAM2 footage doesn't start till 0:49 second in. I'm using the ROAM2 with my goggle mount so it is a little shaky, and I'm using my HERO3 Black Edition on a GoScope pole.
Better than the original ROAM!
The ROAM 2 is better than the original because they have added a locking switch on the ON/OFF slide to prevent your camera from powering on and recording while it is in your bag or something. I just wish they added blue-tooth or wifi. If you want a basic model go with the ROAM2. If you want a fully functional awesome camera, go with the Contour +2, and if you want a completely versatile camera with the ability to change setting directly from the camera go with the GoPro HERO3. I use the HERO3 as my primary everything but head mount camera, and I use my ROAM2 as my secondary head mounted camera.
Roam 2
big things in small packages
amazed by the HD quality and the sound. My buddies were impressed by the features as well. The Contour is very user friendly. One flip of the switch and your recording on the run.
Sick little camera
lost my gopro so i got this. amazing quality especially underwater. check out my channel fpzjibing to see edits shot with this camera!
This camera is perfect! Could not ask for a better one! use it on everything from Ocean to mountains. Perfect for River trips, and amazing to get those perfect shot on the hill. Use it any chance i get! A must buy!
Does the battery from the older model...
Does the battery from the older model (contourHD 1080p) work in the Roam2 ?
You're not able to change the Contour Roam2's battery. Someone disassembled a Roam (http://www.chiphell.com/thread-573049-1-1.html), and I guess Roam2's battery pretty much the same. You'll have to disassemble by yourself to change the battery which might void the warranty.

I switched to FiOS when I moved last year.
The net-net?
I miss DirecTV. The DirecTV+ DVR's are far superior. Much easier to use, much smoother.
Now, having said that...
My total FiOS bill (25/25 Internet, 2 phone lines, FiOS TV, 3 DVR's, 1 HD STB, 1 SD STB, lifetime "multi room dvr") is $151/month.
When I had DirecTV, my bill was $130/mo... and then another $100/mo for Internet + phone from Cablevision.
So, I miss DirecTV... but having an extra $1,000/year in my pocket more than balances it out.
Been with FIOS for two weeks (have their HD-DVR) After two weeks, I can safely say that the DirectTV HD DVR I had was by far much better then the current FIOS DVR that I have. I wont even get into how underwhelmed I feel about FIOS HD quality compared to Ds. I will acknowledge though that FIOS has great triple play bundle prices.

ACT: Third of High School Grads Not Ready for College
August 22, 2013
WASHINGTON (AP) — Almost a third of this year's high school graduates who took the ACT tests are not prepared for college-level writing, biology, algebra or social science classes, according to data......
" Yes, there are bad apples in the teaching profession as there are in any profession, but most do their best to deal with what often is a very difficult situation," libralady.
Amen! Perhaps some of those who complain about poor teacher performance might benefit from taking a good look at their own contribution. What kind of children are they producing? Are they setting a positive example for their children? Do they help them with their homework, encourage them to strive for academic excellence, support their teachers, attend parent-teacher conferences, etc.? Based on the posts of some contributors to this forum I question the example and support they are providing their children.

Teachers today have to deal with numerous government mandates, in addition to teaching their students. The paperwork is sometimes overwhelming. In addition, they are unable to discipline children who come from families who set no boundaries. No wonder so many teachers leave the profession after a few years.
They spend many hour grading papers and preparing for the next day's class, not goofing off after 3 PM. Also, they spend a lot of their own money on supplies since budget cuts have hit schools hard. I would challenge anyone who is super critical of today's teachers to spend a week or even a day trying to deal with today's school classrooms. I'll bet you'd run screaming out of there, in some situations, or at least have more compassion for the dedicated teachers who try to educate our children. Yes, there are bad apples in the teaching profession as there are in any profession, but most do their best to deal with what often is a very difficult situation.

The real measure of how this sad situation impacts the nation is to compare the education level of other advanced nations against the U.S. I fear that we literally pale in comparison. Our nation has been steadily falling behind the rest of the world in virtually every academic field. How many students can speak two languages, write a readable essay, do basic math, are knowledgeable in basic science and have a grasp of socio-political forces shaping our nation and others? They get their "facts" from blogs and websites which cater to a third grade mentality. When empires fall it is usually from internal decay.

My solution is simple. Educate children between the ages of 6 and thirteen. All children between 13 and sixteen get sent to a work farm, where they live in segregated quarters, wearing uniforms (work jumpsuits) only. Preferably this work camp has no electricity. There will be no education allowed during this period, only strenuous activity 12 hours per day. When they turn 17, they will be allowed to resume going to school. I guarantee you that they will then pay attention to their teachers and be thankful for every day they are not required to starve in the dark, which is what will eventually happen to them if they choose to f*** up their lives acting like thugs. I will stop ranting now.

Majority of the kids are going to college because they were told they are college material. Not everyone is college material. Debt for an education has to equal income plus. Today children should think about a trade that can be productive part of life and income. High schools should be teaching the hard facts about finance in you adult life and how to start a business instead of spending money on sports. Kids will be attending school on the internet in the near future and we are still building schools to send them for lessons. This shows that the education system has not kept up with the times and is a con game in telling kids to prepare for college. I would like to see head to head testing between an eighth grade Amish child and a HS Senior to prove you only need 8 years to get the basic in English, math and common sense.

And teachers want raises?
I remember seeing a resume from a "highest honors" graduate of a local high school. In one paragraph, there were three typos and two improper usages of grammar.
A combination of poor parenting, bad teachers and liberal concepts of self-esteem, social promotion, social science focus and a lack of discipline has destroyed our education system.
We need vouchers, school choice, etc. right away.
Our colleges have to compete for students, which is why intelligent students from around the world compete to get into these colleges.
Our high schools are a joke and no one would fight to get into those.
It is rather presumptuous to demand more and more money when our students are doing so poorly.
In the private sector, such failures usually get you the boot.
In the public sector, though, you demand, and get, more money.

Beyonce was booed at Britain's V Festival on Saturday after she left thousands of fans waiting in the pouring rain.
The singer headlined the opening night of the event in Chelmsford, England but she got off to a bad start by taking to the stage 20 minutes late, leaving the crowd standing in the wet and windy conditions.
A chorus of boos and jeers rang out through the site before Beyonce finally started her set with her track "Run the World (Girls)."
She later thanked fans for waiting in the wet conditions, telling the crowd, "Thank you all so much for waiting in the rain… Now let's have some fun in the rain. It feels good doesn't it."
Beyonce headlines the second night of the festival at its sister site in Stafford, England on Sunday night.

Justin Bieber's Bad Week Isn't Getting Better
(LONDON) -- It's safe to say that Justin Bieber isn't having a good week. In the latest incident, he took to Twitter Friday to explain himself after getting into an altercation with and cursing at a photographer who accosted him in front of his hotel.
According to the Daily Mail, Bieber's entourage cleared a group of photographers out of the way as the singer, who'd fainted backstage at his concert Thursday night at London's O2 arena, left his hotel in London on Friday afternoon and got into a car. The angry photographers started complaining that they'd been "assaulted" by Bieber's bodyguards, and called him a "little moron."
But when one paparazzo shouted that Bieber should "f**k off back to America," Bieber blew his top...maybe because he's Canadian. According to the paper, Bieber jumped out of the car and lunged at the pap, attempting to grab his camera while shouting, "What the f**k you say? What did you say? I'll f**king beat the f**k out of you, man!" Bieber was restrained by a member of his team, hustled back into the car and then driven away. A video of the incident -- complete with graphic, uncensored language, so be warned -- is posted on TMZ.com.
Afterwards, Bieber wrote on Twitter, "Ahhhhh! Rough morning. Trying to feel better for this show tonight but let the paps get the best of me. Sometimes when people r shoving cameras in your face all day and yelling the worst thing possible at u...well I'm human."
He added, "Rough week Not gonna let them get the best of me again. Gonna get focused on this show tonight. Adrenaline is high now. Gonna put it on the stage Only way someone can break u is if u let them."
Bieber is scheduled to take the stage tonight for another show at London's O2 arena.

ATLANTA -- Rev. Joseph Lowery says he has been conflicted by the politics surrounding the one cent transportation tax vote.
"It's a real divided community," the 90 year old co-founder of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference said. "I'm like the fellow who says half of his friends and half are against it-- and he's for his friends."
Lowery has watched leaders of the African American community campaign against each other over T-SPLOST.
Some like state Senator Vincent Fort, (D-Atlanta) spent Saturday canvassing for votes against the one-cent tax, which would raise billions for transportation projects. Fort and others say the spending packages shortchanges their constituents.
Others, like US Congressman John Lewis and Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed have rallied in favor of the tax -- saying it will keep Atlanta competitive and moving.
Lowery said he made his decision on the T-SPLOST "very recently. Maybe just five minutes ago," he said outside Ebenezer Baptist Church, where he was receiving an award Saturday.
Reverend Lowery says he had been among the undecided voters both sides now want to reach.
"It's a sharply divided issue. And there are good arguments on both sides," Lowery said. "I wish they'd exempted food and medicine from the sales tax. But they didn't. I wish there was a 'Plan B.' But there isn't."
So Rev. Lowery says his will be a yes vote -- on a divisive sales tax referendum.

I have found one of these and we have seen some big bucks in that spot it is just so thick it's hard to stalk them and impossible to watch them bed.

The win, which came off the heels of a 52-0 loss at Oklahoma last week, was an incredible turnaround of fortunes for the Cyclones. Iowa State did it on defense, intercepting three passes and recovering a fumble to record four turnovers. And the Cyclone offense kept the chains moving when it needed to, as Alexander Robinson recorded his 11th 100-yard rushing effort of his career with 120 yards.
In the end, the Cyclones notched their first win over a ranked opponent on the road since downing No. 18 Oklahoma, 33-31 in Norman on Oct. 20, 1990. It was the first victory over a ranked team since beating No. 22 Colorado, 30-16 on Nov. 12, 2005 in Ames.
More importantly for the Cyclones, however, was improving their record to 4-4 overall and 2-2 in the Big 12. It was the first victory for the Cyclones over a Texas team in eight tries.

Item # SRM0298
Don't worry though, we have a lot more Road Cranksets in stock than that.View Similar Products
SRAM Red Exogram GXP Crankset $0.00
The first generation Red crankset used a foam core with a carbon structure wrapped around it to meet SRAM's ambitions for drivetrain performance and weight. While the stiff crank arms offered excellent response under load, one complaint that came from a handful of ProTour riders was that under load the front shifts sometimes lacked sufficient precision and crispness. SRAM's team of R&D experts set out to solve this gripe and the changes you'll find on the Red Exogram GXP Crankset directly correlate to improved shifting.
The new SRAM Red Exogram GXP Crankset has gone away from that original foam-core formula, and now has a significantly beefier arm shape with a true hollow cross section. Because of its larger carbon-optimizing structure, SRAM is able to use less material, effectively reducing weight without negatively affecting stiffness. This also allowed them to rotate the spider to take advantage of the large, flex-fighting crank arm.
SRAM chose to stick with the 130mm bolt circle diameter standard, ensuring compatibility with aftermarket chainrings, but they've arranged the spider to position a mounting bolt on the backside of the crank arm. By integrating a mounting location within the existing carbon structure, they're able to reduce weight and deflection from shifting -- effectively enhancing the accuracy, speed, and quality of front shifts. This reduces the number of spider arms to four and gives the cranks a sleek, air-splitting profile.
The Red Exogram chainrings have also received extensive reworking to boost front shifting performance, specifically focusing on integration with the rotating, Yaw-caged Red front derailleur. Coined X Glide R, these chainrings are machined from 5mm thick 7075-T6 aluminum, but this machining isn't of the Swiss-cheese, punch-holes-everywhere variety. SRAM used extensive computer-aided finite element analysis to optimize stiffness first, followed by shift ramp profiles. Then they set out to eliminate any unnecessary material without affecting the structure. SRAM placed the new shift pins to correlate with your cadence and cut the ramps to into a profile that works seamlessly with the new Red front derailleur.
The Red Exogram GXP Crankset does not come with a bottom bracket, but is compatible with the SRAM/Truvativ GXP standard, including the low-friction hybrid ceramic bearing option. It comes in 170, 172.5, and 175mm lengths, and both 53/39 and 50/34 chainring configurations are available.

Our friends over at www.decorchick.com used our Political World Map in a new room design!
"Happy Monday! Today I am going to show you all a new addition to the boy's room and I just love it. It's a huge world map wall decal that my sponsor Curly Q Wall Decals and Decor sent me."
"One of the great features about this map is that it's reusable. So
whenever you want to change up your room decor or move this map to
another part of your home, it peels right off the wall with no problems,
and adheres back to the original paper it came on. You can either reuse
it somewhere else or store it away. Whatever floats your boat. :)"

If you love fine tequila, Toloache (pronounced toe-lo-AH-chay) has by far the best selection in the Theatre District. Roughly 100 bottles of the distilled beverage glitter at the tiled bar, an excellent place to sip it straight or in a tart margarita along with some chips and thick guacamole. The bi-level bistro is splashed with vibrant Mexican art and lit by lovely multicolored hanging lamps. Julian Medina, of Mexico City, is the chef/owner, preparing elevated yet approachable dishes like suckling pig tacos, avocado fries, lobster ceviche and quesadillas with sea scallops and bacon–Mexican chocolate pico de gallo. The kitchen serves until 10pm Sunday and Monday, 11pm Tuesday through Thursday and until midnight on weekends, but you can linger over drinks for as long as you like.

Cyclone Swimming Winter Training Daily Blog
Hello Cyclone swimming family, friends, and fans.
On our third day of training, fourth day here, we headed out to practice a little earlier than we have the past two mornings. We loaded the vans at 9:30 a.m. in order to get there with a bit more time to stretch out. Our van rides to the pool are always a lot of fun, playing some quality tunes and convincing Kelly to tell us stories about previous years in her swimming and coaching career. We arrived at the pool and got a quick team stretch in before we got into the water.
Conditions were pretty brutal as we got into the short course yards pool at Pine Crest. It was windy, cold, and cloudy; the temperature was about 50-degrees, so much warmer than Ames but pretty chilly for swimming outside. Practice consisted of a warm up, followed by a test set of best average 50s. The team really pushed through the cold and windy conditions to complete the set in an outstanding fashion. After that, we moved to stations – two lanes each working on turns, sprint 50s with fins, 25s with chutes, and bungee cords. These stations took about an hour, and then we had to warm down and load the vans back up for Windjammer.
Since the weather was less than ideal, we made plans to go to the mall instead of the beach. Two vans went to The Galleria, an extremely nice, upscale mall in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla. We spent about two hours there; shopping, walking around, and just relaxing after a tough practice. After we got back to the legendary Windjammer, we had a little bit of time to get ready before we had the traditional picture on the steps of the 'jammer followed by team dinner at Zuckerello's, a great little Italian restaurant in town.
When we got back from dinner, a lot of the girls, including me, went to get ice cream, because there's always room for ice cream, and made it back in time to catch most of the basketball game vs. Baylor on ESPN2. Seeing our Cyclones get a great win like that was the best way to end the night!
While cheering on the basketball team from room 101, I was reflecting on something that made me get a little sentimental. My team is beyond amazing, and I am so lucky to have an opportunity to be a part of it here at Iowa State University. There is absolutely no place I'd rather be and no other people I'd want to share this fantastic experience with. So thank you, teammates. I have so much love for you all.
With that being said, and with the guarantee of a challenging distance practice in the morning, I'm saying good night to you, Cyclone Nation.
May the odds be ever in OUR favor,
Elizabeth Kleiner

It could be. Some pregnant women do have trouble tolerating certain prenatal supplements, especially those with a lot of iron.
The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) recommends that all pregnant women get 27 milligrams (mg) of iron per day, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that all pregnant women take a daily supplement containing 30 mg of iron. Some prenatal vitamins contain more than that, so check the label.
If your vitamin contains excessive iron, switch to one with less (as long as you're not anemic). Ask your doctor or midwife to recommend a vitamin with the right amount of iron for you.
You can also try taking your prenatal vitamin with food or just before you go to bed. Or break the tablet in half and take it in divided doses. If these suggestions don't help, ask your provider whether you can switch to a prenatal vitamin without iron during your first trimester and get iron from food sources instead.
Also, make sure that your prenatal vitamin contains vitamin B6. Research indicates that vitamin B6 may help relieve nausea in some women during pregnancy.
If you just can't stomach prenatal vitamins, try to make sure you get enough folic acid. The CDC reports that taking folic acid (a synthetic form of folate) in the months before pregnancy and during the first trimester reduces the risk of neural tube birth defects by up to 70 percent.
Experts recommend consuming 400 micrograms (mcg) of folic acid daily while trying to conceive and 600 mcg when pregnant. (This is in addition to the folate you get from food, which your body doesn't absorb as well as the synthetic kind.) Your prenatal supplement should contain at least that much.

Ford Model 40 - Life Begins At 40!Written by on May 5, 2014 Continuing the Model 40's 80th Birthday Celebrations With A Scenic SoCal Drive
What's the point of having old cars? Is it to go to countless shows and show off your creation? Is it a status symbol or accessory to your lifestyle? The guys who own the cars you see here have a different approach. For them it's not about the show, the status, or politics, but merely about getting in the vintage tin and driving.
I like these guys and call most of them friends. They love a chance to get together and go for long drives in the city or out in the country. I had an idea one day while talking with my friend Marion. We should grab as many 1933-34 hot rods as we could and go for a hot rod run up the Angeles Crest Highway (California), a winding two-lane mountain road that takes you high above Los Angeles.
It didn't take long for us to get several people and vehicles together, the group representing a great cross-section of Ford's Model 40 models. The idea was that it was all those old girls' 80th birthday and they needed to stretch their legs out on some windy roads through the Angeles National Forest.
Chomping at the bit to get out there and drive, most of the guys involved were from the Barons Car Club and the Roadster Club out of Pasadena. A few friends from the central coast came down for the hell of it to complete a group comprised of Bonneville racers and gearheads. We all got together for the love of the cars and the fun of driving, no fairground shows or BS, just miles and miles of fun with friends.
Starting out in La Cañada Flintridge, the planned 80-mile run turned into 120 (round trip) miles to the very top of the San Gabriel Mountains before I photographed some of the cars to compare the different models. Happy 80th birthday Model 40!
More Photos From This Article View Slideshow
Marion Bledsoe leads the pack in his roadster, followed by Dustin Odbert in his five-window and Paul Gommi in the only cabriolet on the run. Given that the vast majority of engines were vintage, they coped well with the constant uphill nature of the run, likewise the cable brakes on some cars handling the return journey!Participating cars covered pretty much the whole Model 40 spectrum, from roadsters and coupes, to cabriolets and sedans, as well as a panel truck. Paul Gommi had the only cabriolet on the run, equipped with '36 hood side louvers.Marion Bledsoe's roadster and Robert Lomas' coupe demonstrate the differences between the two essentially similarly bodied cars; both are amazing.The background will give you a clue just how far the guys climbed—almost 8,000 feet. Here Nick Osborne leads the pack, one of the few cars on the run with bumpers.Tunnels always bring out the kid in car guys, especially with loud pipes, and this route provided plenty of them.Gary Odbert's roadster employs a '39 Ford truck frame, as well as a unique front apron tying the lower side aprons together. Genuine Kinmont brakes are used all around too.

I have recently inherited zimbra admin duties at the company I work for since the Network Admin moved on to bigger and better.
Inside the admin console I was looking at the "Zimbra Mobile" tab for my users that have iPhones and noticed of the six that are iPhone users one person does not have the "Enable Mobile Sync" box checked. That user happens to be the CEO and I am reluctant to make a change... especially right now that he is up in the air in a jet.
What would be the behavior if this box is not checked?

Mosman Named Community Champion by Big 12
IRVING, Texas – Iowa State senior guard Shellie Mosman was named to the Chick-fil-A Winter Community of Champions by the Big 12 Conference. During the fall, winter and spring terms, one student-athlete from each institution is chosen based on academics, community service and leadership/sportsmanship.
Mosman epitomizes each of these qualities for the 17th-ranked Cyclone women's basketball team. Mosman finished her undergraduate degree in three years with a 4.0 grade-point average in finance. This year she has worked on her master's in accounting and is on schedule to graduate in May.
"I feel honored to be recognized as a Big 12 Chick-fil-A Community Champion," Mosman said. "Iowa State provides a great educational experience for its students. I have been blessed to have great professors, tutors, and mentors to help me find success in the classroom. Ames is also a great community with great people. It has been fun to get out and meet people who support not only Iowa State athletics, but love Iowa State women's basketball."
Mosman has served as a vice president for the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee, and has been a member of the committee since the fall of 2007. SAAC is a committee assembled to provide insight on the student-athlete experience. The SAAC also offers input on the rules, regulations and polices that affect student-athletes' lives on NCAA member institution campuses.
The Carroll, Iowa, native has been involved in organizing and participating in a number of community service projects with the ISU women's basketball team. She has helped raise over $10,000 for the MS Walk over the last three years. She is a regular visitor to Ames elementary school to read to the students, and makes a yearly visit to the Green Hills Retirement home to visit the residents.
Mosman has also participated in the Dance Marathon, which raises money for disabled children, the United Way Day of Caring, and has volunteered at the New Moines homeless shelter, along with many other community service projects.
Mosman has seen time in 12 games this season and earned a start against Arkansas-Pine Bluff. In that game she scored a career-high 14 points and dished out five assists. For the season she is averaging 1.8 points and 0.9 rebounds a contest.
Iowa State, as well as the other Big 12 institutions, will be awarded $3,000 each year from Chick-fil-A for their Community Champion efforts.

Birth Place: San Antonio, Texas, USA
Born on June 20, 1968 in San Antonio, TX, Rodriguez began making Super 8 movies as a 13-year-old, using his large family of five sisters and four brothers as a stock company. Though a born filmmaker, he was initially rejected by the film program at the University of Texas at Austin. Undaunted, Rodriguez continued with borrowed equipment and little money, making over 30 short films. He compiled a number of these for "Austin Stories," a video anthology of three vignettes starring his younger siblings, which won Rodriguez several awards and admission to film school. There he made his first 16mm short, "Bedhead" (1991), a remarkable eight-minute-long calling-card film about a little girl who use... Continue Bio >>

A Michigan State University poll has found an increase in support for gay marriage in Michigan, with 56 percent of adults questioned saying they support the same-sex unions.
Michigan State economics professor Charles Ballard directs the quarterly State of the State Survey, which questions Michiganians about a variety of subjects.
He says the increase in state support for same-sex marriage mirrors trends around the country.
The telephone poll of 1,015 Michigan adults was conducted June 12-Aug. 13, and the results have a margin of sampling error of 3 percentage points up or down.
Opposition to gay marriage stood at 39 percent in this year's poll. Two years ago, 51 percent said they opposed gay marriage, while 48 percent supported it.

By that, I mean if you had to choose one goal of performance management in your company, what would it be? Not a list of 25 things like one of those godawful job descriptions ...
For me, the one goal would be that performance management is there as a process/format to drive conversations, interaction and dialog that migrate the employee UP the performance grid. Bad to good, good to great, etc.
Isn't that the job of the manager? Once you get away from the stale process of handing out merit increases based on ratings and other stale stuff, isn't that really why we have performance management in our organizations? To provide coaching to make people better?
There's a lot that goes into the ability to coach using a tool like performance management, but in my world that's the goal.
Why else would you do it? I suspect the reason so many people call for an end to the performance review is that we've lost sight on the one thing we should be trying to accomplish.

text: I just installed The latest network edition of zimbra in linux on VMware. Originally we set 4g for memory but after install we wanted to change to 8. When we do soit makes zimbra unable to see host when attempting to use web. Change it back down to 4g and works again. Not sure if this is a VMware issue but from what I read increasing memory shouldn't cause this issue. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Be sure to catch the St. Louis Rams Tailgate Show every Sunday at 10:30 a.m on KSDK NewsChannel 5.
AP Sports Writer
ST. LOUIS (AP) - Two key players could be back for the St. Louis Rams' offense that'll still be featuring running back Steven Jackson after their bye week.
Wide receiver Danny Amendola said he'll definitely be in the lineup at San Francisco next week and offensive tackle Rodger Saffold is hoping to play.
Jackson had no comment to The Associated Press on Wednesday, a day after coach Jeff Fisher quashed trade rumors and said simply, "He's our running back." After shouting to a public relations assistant for help, Jackson left the locker room.
Amendola and Saffold got limited work Wednesday and Fisher said they appear to be on track, if there are no setbacks.
Amendola is coming off a collarbone injury that's sidelined him for three weeks. Saffold has missed six games with a left knee injury.

Rockford Library Youth Love to Read, and Write!
Rockford youth love to read! Almost 7,000 children's books have been checked out during our "Dig into Reading" Summer Program. These children also love to write! Rockford library received 21 submissions for our Blue Ribbon Reader Essay Contest during the month of July. Children and teens aged 8-18 answered the question "Why do you love to read?" Here are some of their responses:
"I think books give you knowledge and teach you history back before 2000. Books are amazing and funny and interesting." Tony, 10.
"When I read a book about, let's say a forest, I imagine myself there. In the forest there's lush moss on the cool soil and sparkling dew on the dark green leaves." Rayna, 10.
"My Grandma would read stories to me before my naps. (She watched me while my parents went to work.) Ever since, my love of reading has continued to grow." Brandi, 9.
"I love to read because it lets my imagination soar. For example, I can't get a dog but reading about them helps me imagine I do have one." Lois, 10.
"I learn so much that I would have never known. Reading several articles about one event or person allows me to understand different sides or opinions, which is critical when one wants to write a bipartisan essay or paper." Lindsey, 17.
"You can find books to read to younger children or to brothers and sisters." Jazmyn, 9.
"When you read a story, most of the time it brings you good inspiration to do things you've never done before! For example, when you read a book about trees it might motivate you to want to help protect nature." Loryn, 10.
"I love to read so I can find a book I can call 'Such a good book.'" Kailey, 11.
"I love to find books that I like so I can continue to read the series out in the grass." Sydney, 10.
"I also love to read because it blocks out my troubles and I can pretty much be in my own world which is when my nose is in a book. That's why I call it my world because nobody is in that story when I am." Anpo, 12.
"I read everywhere: at home, in the car, and other places." Jade, 9.
"I like reading to learn new things and to go through the awesome story the book has to tell. Sometimes I even wish the story was real." Austin, 11.
"I learn some new words and it helps me with spelling. I also can have an excuse to not do a chore or work." Alayna, 11.
"Every day I learn at least 2 new things from a book, and that is why I love to read." Libby, 10.
"I love to read because books can take me anywhere, to far away kingdoms or to terrible ferocious dragons!" Maggie, 8.
"When I was a little kid (like when I was 3 or 4) my mom taught me to read and I didn't like it a lot. When I got a little older I liked it a little more." Cooper, 8.
"If I read, I usually read like 30 minutes at a time. I like to read outside in trees or inside on my bed." Ian, 11.
"Reading. New adventures. Exotic places. When I read I go to places that I have never been before." Tifffani, 16.
"I love to read to the little kids at school. I hope people will always love to read as much as I do. Books were always a part of our past, and will always be part of our present and future." Arly, 11.
"Books also help you realize there is a lot more world and history than you may realize. They can also help you relax and remain calm and that is why I love to read." Patrick, 14.
"Books can be told in pictures, regular words, or poetry. Reading is so much fun and I love how the library does different programs to keep us reading!" Sydney, 11.
Thank you to all who participated!
