Sonoma State American Language Institute in JapanThe Sonoma State American Language Institute (SSALI) sent four faculty members to Japan to teach an intensive 10-day English course for Nihon University. The instructors, Miriam Hutchins, Berta Hodges, Peter Vincent, and JuHwan Kim spent the time with 36 students from Nihon at a seminar house in Tateshina, located in the Japanese Alps. Ms. Hutchins, Ms. Hodges, and Mr. Vincent taught Everyday English, Intercultural Communication, and Communication in Business Situations during the day. Mr. Kim lead the students in language games and activities in the evening. SSALI has been hosting students from Nihon University for the past two years during its summer program.
Some of the instructors stayed on to visit potential sources for SSALI recruitment. Ms. Hutchins will visit Anan National Technological College and Miyazaki International College in southern Japan. Ms. Hutchins, who has mentored students from Miyazaki International College for the past twelve years will have the opportunity to attend the Miyazaki graduation and meet up with some of her former students. Ms. Hodges will be traveling north of Tokyo to visit Nagano University, Tsukuba University, and Niigata University of International and Information Studies. In addition, Ms. Hodges will meet with one of SSALI's recruiting partners in Tokyo, Steven Hamade of Apprez, Inc. She will also meet several former SSALI students. Mr. Kim will travel to Seoul before returning to SSALI to make contact with four of SSALI's recruiting agencies there.
This marks the first time in over ten years that SSALI faculty have traveled out of the USA for recruiting purposes. The opportunity has been made possible due to the invitation from Nihon University, which covers the bulk of travel and housing expenses. It is our sincere hope that these personal contacts will lead to stronger ties between SSALI and schools in Japan and Korea.

Wine Business Management Certificate Program
In response to wine industry demand, Sonoma State is creating online wine classes focusing on the business of wine. "Throughout the United States and abroad, members of the industry have persistently requested access to our classes from a distance. These new programs will satisfy that demand across a broad series of wine business topics," said Wine Business Institute Director, Ray Johnson.
The first new offering, exclusively online, is the Wine Business Management Certificate. The Certificate Program was created for professionals already in the industry who want to advance their knowledge of wine business operations, winemakers or viticulturists wanting to expand their understanding of business strategies and principles, and professionals in other industries seeking to enter the wine industry. The series consists of a Foundation level, along with Intermediate and Advanced levels, with optional certification at the completion of the Advanced level.
The next cohort for the Foundation level is forming for spring. The four-week course is presented through video lectures, course conference calls, and a unique WineBizSim business planning project, allowing the students experience in building a financial model for a wine business.
Tim Hanni MW teaches the Foundation and Intermediate Levels in the new Certificate Program. Hanni MW, one of the first two Americans to earn the title Master of Wine, is an internationally recognized wine educator Hanni and sits on the Board of Directors for the Institute of Masters of Wine. He is an innovative researcher and wine educator whose wine and food principles have been adopted by the Wine & Spirits Education Trust in London.
The Intermediate level will also be offered in spring. The advanced level will feature elective courses, offered in the summer of 2012, in Production and Quality in the Wine Supply Chain, Strategic Wine Marketing and Global Wine E-commerce. For those seeking admission to Sonoma State University's accredited MBA in Wine Business, completing the Advanced Level of the Wine Business Management Certificate (including passing the exams) waives the wine experience admission requirement. This will enable professionals in other fields to access to the Wine MBA program more readily. For more information go to our website.

Louis Garneau Mini Race 2 Bag $0.00

So-So Race Bag
The Louis Garneau Mini Race 2 Bag has its ups and downs. The size of the bag is perfect for race day to fit a spare tube, hand pump and even keys. The design is sleek and light as well. Through I do find that the bag installation is hard to conceptualize at first, the drawcord is a nice touch.
That being said, some problems arise. The zipper is a bit too stiff for a small bag that you'll be stuffing a lot into. The velcro used to attach the bag to the rails of the saddle is not great either as you need to double check on its security. It is a nice starter bag or small bag to throw a minimal amount into, but you'll be wanting more of the design later on.
Bad Design
This is my second Mini Race 2, but I had to return this bag - there is a gap in the velcro on the strap so that when you cinch it up, there's only about 1 inch of contact between the hooks and loops of the velcro, which wouldn't stay together - the bag kept falling off during rides. Interestingly, I have another one of these supposedly exact same bags which doesn't have this issue - no gap in the velcro, and it stays secure under the saddle. I'm not quite sure why they were made differently.
It is very difficult to zip and unzip this bag. Perhaps it's because they were trying to create a waterproof seal. Whatever the case, I broke off the zipper pulley within my first couple rides (simply from trying to open/close the bag). I have substituted the pulley with a keychain ring to serve as a makeshift pulley.
Good little bag
What's to say about a saddle bag. It holds tight to the rails and doesn't sway. I can stuff a tube, CO2 cartridge with head, and tire levers. That's about all there is room for. I'm sure if I went with a super light tube I might be able to fit my keys in. For what I need it for it does the job nicely.
Good enough I will be purchasing 4 of them.
Well designed bag sans the rear clip. The bag is very secure and the full wrap velcro does a great job of keeping the bag from swaying under the saddle bottom. The elastic post strap is low profile, won't mar up the Thomson etching that is under so many of our rear ends, and holds tight on my 31.6 dia post. Should have zero issue holding a 27.2 post also. Really like that there is no velcro on the post strap which tends to snag bib-short legs.
I can cram, 1 std (not ultra-light) 700x18-25c tube, (2) 16 gram CO2, 1 micro inflate head, micro tool, 2 tire levers, and 2 insta-patches inside. Not much extra space beyond that for anything beyond a few wadded up dollars. An ultralight tube would allow for either a 3rd tire lever or perhaps keys.
The rear light clip is more of a urathane/silicone loop so the rear flasher (PB superflash) kinda just flaps around in the back and does not really point straight back nor does it stay still.
Overall recommend and will be buying more
Does anyone know the dimensions for this bag in metric? length, depth, width?


text: Was at Costco the other day. Saw an Igloo brand 150 qt cooler for $90. Claimed to be a 7 day cooler -- I don't really believe that. But, I'll never spend $300 -$400 on a cooler (sorry Yeti), at least unless I absolutely have to. The question: How seriously do you take the number of day claims? While I would not take them literally, I wonder whether a 7 day is significanly better than a 5 or 6 day? And, do you think you have to spend $300+ to get an acceptable cooler? Again, I don't, but I've never been in a position where I had to store game for several days before getting it to a freezer.

Tycoon Tshuva Donates to Kotel Tunnel, his Daughter Designs the Shul
The Western Wall underground tunnel exposes the full length of the Kotel to which it is adjacent, under the buildings of the Old City of Jerusalem. The open-air portion of the Western Wall is approximately 200 ft long, but the majority of its original length is hidden underground, and the tunnel allows access to an additional 1,591 ft of the wall. The area underground is full of crisscrossing tunnels and wide halls, one of which is presumed to be very close to the holy sanctuary on the Temple Mount. In that hall, a new synagogue is being planned, paid for by a generous donation from billionaire Yitzhak Tshuva, who owns both the New York Plaza Hotel and the energy conglomerate Delek Group. According to Israel's Channel 2 News, architect Gal Naor, Tshuva's daughter, was hired to design the synagogue.
Internal documents of the Western Wall Heritage Foundation, a governmental non-profit organization that operates under the Prime Minister's Office, reveal plans for the Yitzhak Tshuva Hall that were sent to the Israel Antiquities Authority, with the comment: "The project is progressing, Yitzhak Tshuva's daughter was made the project's architect. After the plan is finalized it will be sent for your approval."
The fact is that legally the WWHF is not required to submit plans for approval by governmental planning committees, because it is classified as a project of the "rescue excavations by the Israel Antiquities Authority." But in terms of the transparency so many in Netanyahu's government have been demanding—rightfully so, the revelation is problematic, and left-wing NGOs have already jumped on the story—which is obviously how the news channel found out about it.
"Yitzhak Tshuva's daughter" as the document refers to architect Naor, is not expected to be paid for this project, while her father has donated about $1.75 million a year in 2013 and 2014 to the project (through the Delek Science, Education and Culture Foundation, which are, essentially, public funds). Still, she'll presumably add this very prestigious project to her resume without any due process in her hiring. Her other big job: redesigning the NY Plaza Hotel. But she's also done The Link on 52nd Street and 8th Avenue, a new 48-story building with around 200 apartments; Astor Place 21, a preserved building near Cooper Union; Hugh O'niell, a preserved building in Chelsea; and Grand Madison, a preserved building in Manhattan with 200 planned apartments, lofts, and duplexes.
The Delek Foundation responded in a statement that it is proud to donate to so many institutions that promote science, education and culture in Israel — which is nice but doesn't really explain whether it is also proud to promote nepotism in Israel, because heaven knows, if there's one thing Israel has plenty of…
The WWHF also issued a statement saying that architect Naor has a rich international experience, was added to the design team as a representative of the donor, and works voluntarily.
Actually, that last part was transparent enough.David Israel

Economic opportunity
To build a brighter economic future, we know that young people around the world need education, resources and support. Watch the video above to learn how we're empowering young people in Africa to go after their dreams, start their own businesses, and succeed — no matter what challenges they may face.
Markets, whether large or small, keep communities thriving. But conflicts, disasters and a lack of infrastructure can prevent people from conducting the daily transactions on which all growth and progress depend. Around the world, Mercy Corps discovers why commerce is stuck.
In some places, manufacturers need loans to purchase equipment and young people desire job skills. In others, key transportation routes to market must be rebuilt or farmers require better storage to keep their inventory fresh until sold.
Our economic development projects provide financing, equipment, training or technical support. These projects help people find jobs, build their businesses, supply their communities with the goods they need —and improve their lives.

Buying-in on Tweeting is more than a value-add
October 10, 2013
Like a lot of publications, Logistics Management has a Twitter feed: @LogisticsMgmtMag.
When we first started out with this "handle" in 2011, it was with the expectation of, um, not exactly really knowing what to expect. Our strategy for how to leverage Twitter was—and still is—largely the same.
It goes something like this: when we post a news item, we Tweet it, ditto for when we post the print edition of the most recent article of LM to our Web site.
And for the latter, we Tweet each individual item.
To be sure, it is a basic strategy, but, as it turns out, it is also a very effective one when it comes to many things like getting more site traffic, gaining some insight on a specific topic we may be reporting on, or even picking up on something off the beaten trail that we had not thought of as well.
And this is bearing out in our numbers, too. As of this morning, @LogisticsMgmtMag has 14,814 followers and has posted 3,996 Tweets. Not too shabby considering that when we started doing this we were very unclear on how we would use Twitter and how we would grow it in terms of these aforementioned numbers.
But the thing is, for the way we use Twitter it has been as intuitive as it gets in that we are posting, make that Tweeting, whatever we are up to basically, making it a simple and effective way to approach what is becoming or has become (at least in this writer's opinion) the most effective and relevant social networking tool out there. Sorry, Facebook, you just are a time drain with more sizzle than steak for me at this point.
If you had asked me back when we started this Twitter feed if I would be surprised how much traction it has gotten, my honest answer would definitely be yes. For me, Twitter was more of a peripheral thing that I did not pay much mind to at all. It was not a matter of being stubborn; it instead had more to do with the fact that I really had not invested the time to see what all the fuss was basically.
Looking back now, I am glad to say I took the plunge and am seeing the benefits on a daily basis, whether it is finding an interesting news lead on an industry-specific topic, a developing mainstream news item, or something on the other side relating to sports or pop culture maybe.
In this space last March, I wrote the following about social media:
"On the publishing side, mobile content and social media are terrific ways to get our content out there to more people, and it is working well for us. But at the same time, it has not fundamentally changed how we do things. It seems like it is more of a value add of sorts."
To be sure, my thinking has changed as time goes on. Yes, it is still more of a value-add from my editorial perch, with this caveat: it is more of a "valuable" value-add, and I only expect that to increase as time goes on.
That said, if you are on Twitter and already following @LogisticsMgmtMag, thank you very much. If you are not following us, now is the time to get on board. Who doesn't want to be in the know, you know?

From spearheading the Golden Era's Black Moon within the greater Boot Camp Clik to present day, Buckshot has maintained a vested interest towards the underground's preservation as both artist and co-founder of Duck Down's enterprise. Amongst the label's various business dealings, North Carolina producer 9th Wonder's Jamla imprint has granted a platform and financial backing for uncompromising music - a union beneficial to all involved. Continuing their ongoing metaphor for cooking up in the lab (precursors being Chemistry and The Formula), 9th Wonder and Buckshot's latest shared vision has resulted in The Solution.
Nearing 20 years since his arrival to Hip Hop, The Solution has Buckshot readily leading an audience that has grown with him over this time. With regards to its ambiguous and possibly cocky title, the album is full of fiery conviction as the rapper steadily defies irrelevance finding harmony with 9th Wonder's trademark soul sound. Telling his fabled story of survival within the industry and streets, "What I Gotta Say," "Crazy," and "Keep It Going" all convey a wisdom removed from ego and false pretense as Buckshot is ever grateful for the opportunity to still be heard.
Bringing listeners further into his world, "The Feeling" is Buckshot's letter to a disloyal tramp, "Pat Em Down" addresses a comrade turned police informant, and "Shorty Left" (featuring female Jamla sensation Rapsody) details the struggles that come with balancing independent Rap life and a marriage. These facets show a talent at crafting songs comprised of more than vanity and macho boasts of longevity, though "Stop Rapping" and a few other selections are designed to please standoffish enthusiasts. Aside from small imperfections such as Dyme-A-Duzin's off-key singing on "You," The Solution once again combines Buckshot and 9th Wonder's accomplished and refined skill sets as pioneers of the '90s and the past decade respectively.

Strap on the Anon Figment Goggle and you won't have to leave much to the imagination. The cylindrical lens has been a staple since before you were born, and it's made from polycarbonate for durability. The dual layer face foam keeps them snug against your face, and fogging won't be an issue thanks to the Full Perimeter Channel venting. A medium fit frame fits, you guessed it, medium sized faces. The styling is classic, but these are anything but old school.

What do you think about this product?
Have questions about this product?
Great goggles
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Really great goggle that I've used for years now. Never had any problems fogging up, and everything is holding up well in terms of wear. A simpler goggle compared to a lot of the spherical lenses that are out, but gets the job done well with a good field of vision and for a lot cheaper than much of the competition.
Goggle to get the job done!
My dad wears this goggle and loves it. He isn't into the big/showy goggles. This goggle will get the job done with no complaints. I personally prefer bigger goggles with better field of vision. (He's old school)
Great all-purpose goggle
- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
This goggle fits great with my helmet (gyro) and doesn't fog with or without a facemask, and in all kinds of conditions. Its a bit larger than I expected, and is a bit tall (distance from the bottom of the goggle to the top of the goggle) for rounder/smaller faced people.
What type of giro helmet do you have?
a Giro 9.10
Anon Figment Goggle
Good goggle for all conditions
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
I've used the Figment in all types of conditions, from Japan to Australian spring days and it's handled it all. It is a comfortable goggle that you can wear all day that wont fog up on you, and I've used it with and without face warmers and the lenses fogging up has never been an issue. I've also worn it with and without a helmet, and it fits great with the brim of the helmet.
Very versatile goggle that will do a great job for all the conditions on the mountain.
How is Japan skiing? Always been interested!
It's fantastic Chris! I've been to the Hakuba region and snowboarded a number of resorts in the area. All resorts have modern facilities, massive amounts of terrain and quality snow. I highly recommend it.
How is the fit on these? Small-med or med-large?
are these goggles good for airsoft use?...
are these goggles good for airsoft use? airsoft is plastic bb wars that shoot about 350 feet per second, if anyone has a problem with shattering/penetrated lenses please reply ASAP
Snow goggles are rarely, if ever, rated for any sort of high velocity impact. Do not use them for such.

What's the difference between Big Data and just having a lot of data? Big Data has so much volume, variety or velocity that you have to change the way you think about basic functions, such as data storage, management and protection. Often, you don't notice a problem with Big Data until something breaks. More organizations are exploring Big Data, and a discussion about infrastructure needs can help drive project success
Last week at IBM Interconnect2015, Bernard Shen from Re-Store shared his experiences implementing Big Data solutions for business and scientific environments. Bernard began with a discussion of the similarities between scientific and business workloads, when they run at a large scale. As business data grows into the petabyte range, much can be learned from scientific workloads that use scale-out supercomputer environments. There are differences, to be sure (file sizes, use cases, etc.), but the similarities are much greater.
When data grows to multiple petabytes, traditional data management and data protection paradigms break down. For example, the time required to find, backup or restore files can be unacceptable using ordinary processes and infrastructures. Supercomputer infrastructures provide a better model, because they're designed to provide excellent service levels, regardless of data size, by using grid architectures that expand without architectural bottlenecks.
In multi-petabyte environments, small decisions can have big financial impacts. Bernard shared an example of a Life Sciences project needing multiple petabytes of storage. After understanding how the data would be used, Re-Store recommended a flash system for production workloads, funded by storing inactive data on lower cost storage. The solution delivers better performance than expected and saves millions of dollars, compared to the original proposal. Sometimes, it pays to get a second opinion.
Bernard also shared Best Practices for backup and restores in very large environments. Re-Store has experience with remote mirroring, snapshots, incremental backup, and Hierarchical Space Management. By using a combination of techniques, clients can reduce total costs without sacrificing data protection goals.
If your Big Data project uses all-disk storage, you may be spending too much and getting too little in return. Are you ready for a different approach? You could be spending more on innovation, and less on infrastructure.

Don't get me wrong, i really like the way the Sam and Max games look and how they have improved with each season graphically. The Devil's Playhouse looks downright awesome. But wouldn't be cool to have Season 4 lets say in the comic book-hand drawn style that the Walking Dead is?
I know, it may be like a big departure in terms of looks compared to the other ones, but it would make the game feel closer to its comic book roots. It would give the game a fresh new face, and with a more vivid color palette it could bring the older days of Sam and Max to life.

We've had some great music related polls before but I wanted to get some perspective on everybody's favorite bands that have released NEW cd's in the past 3-5 years (greatest hits don't count).
My Top Ten CURRENT Bands - not in any particular order...
James Blunt
Puddle Of Mudd
Flogging Molly
Bon Jovi
Foo Fighters
Linkin Park
Of those bands, I've seen U2, Puddle Of Mudd, Nickelback and Bon Jovi live in the past couple years and have tickets to see both Ludo and Flogging Molly within the next couple months.
Sometimes it is the people who no one imagines anything of who do the things that no one can imagine.

As always seems to be the case with Zimbra, all went smoothly in the upgrade.
Upgraded on CentOS 5.4_32 then migrated to CentOS 5.8_64.
Utilised the following for the migration :
Platform and OS Independent ZCS to ZCS Migration Using Rsync - Zimbra :: Wiki
Network Edition: Moving from 32-bit to 64-bit Server - Zimbra :: Wiki
Only minor issue on Cents5.8 had to stop and disable syslog and enable and start rsyslog to get zimbra logging working.

Raytheon Hawker 4000 Gets Its FAA Certificate
Calling it "the most advanced super-midsize jet in the world today," Raytheon chairman and CEO Jim Schuster announced last month the certification of the Wichita, Kan. manufacturer's Hawker 4000, some 10 years after the model was announced. It features a 72-inch-high, 77-inch-wide flat-floor cabin and an aft baggage compartment that allows in-flight access. An eight-passenger configuration is standard, with fully articulating executive seating in double-club format. The 4000 offers all-composite construction, a maximum speed of 477 knots and a maximum range with four passengers of 3,341 nautical miles (NBAA IFR reserves). Certification came just weeks after Raytheon announced replacement of its popular Hawker 850XP with two derivatives-the Hawker 900XP and Hawker 750. The 900XP is expected to have a range of about 2,800 nautical miles with six passengers, while the 750 is expected to offer a 2,100-nautical-mile range with four passengers. With standard equipment, they will sell for $13.9 million (900XP) and $12 million (750).

The art of tattooing has been around as far back as the 10th millennium BC. Originally a practice of the East, thanks to sailors and their expeditions, particularly throughout Polynesia, European seamen started to engage in the practice of also tattooing their bodies. Although still taboo in some circles, tattooing has become more and more mainstream and an accepted form of body modification. In fact, they seem to be more often than not.
If you've been watching the Olympics in London, you've probably noticed the mass amounts of Olympians, from all countries, sporting a wide array of tattoos. Although many of them have chosen to be inked in the Olympic rings, some have way more elaborate and intense tattoos that you just can't help but stare at and admire — or loathe, depending on your opinion of tattoos.
While some tattoos have meaning, and others are just designs or images that people just happen to love, it's safe to assume that when it comes to those Olympic rings that so many of the Olympians have, there's definitely a deep meaning for them. Ryan Lochte's gator tattoo is an example of a meaningful tattoo. Not only did his family move to Florida when he was a kid where he started swimming, but he also went to the University of Florida. The Greek writing above the alligator translates to "first" in English. At the rate things are going for Lochte, he's living up to the art on his back.
Here as some other great tattoos we've been seeing at the 2012 Olympics.

Mass Transport and Electrochemical Reaction in a Fuel Cell Cathode
Application ID: 458
A stationary 3D model of a generic fuel cell cathode describing the mass fraction distribution of oxygen, water, and nitrogen, as well as the current distribution.
The model uses Darcy's Law to describe convection, and couples this to Maxwell-Stefan diffusivities to also describe mass transport.
The model shows that the current density in this fuel cell cathode is mass transfer governed by the reactant.

Silver Jewelry for men has been standard for hundreds of years in the United States and for thousands of years in many different areas of the world. Silver Jewelry for men is more practical as men tend to do more heavy types of work and Silver does lend itself as being a very durable precious metal that can stand more abuse than gold. Thoughout the middle eastern countries Silver Jewelry for men is standard and in many areas it is frowned upon for men to wear gold Jewelry.
In the past few months a new word is on the street that Silver is the new Gold in Jewelry as the value of Gold has shot through the roof in value, over $1500.00 per ounce. The cost of Silver has also risen, however, it is still quite reasonable for mens Silver Jewelry at $36.00 per ounce. To give you an idea, a mens class ring weighs about 1/2 ounce in Silver and about 1/3rd more in Gold. You can imagine, the cost of Silver Jewelry for men versus Gold Jewelry for men is substancially more reasonable.
Beyond the cost of the two precious metals, Silver and Gold, Silver Jewelry for men makes a lot more sense as the mens workplace in general is not a place to show off your riches. Silver Jewelry for men in todays lifestyles of the average American makes good sense and many men will testify to that.
Durango Silver Company produces both Silver Jewelry for men as well as Gold Jewelry for men. There is no doubt in our minds that Silver Jewelry for men has become much more popular that Gold in the past several years in the United States. We believe it will continue to gain popularity into the future.

Laramie, WY (Sports Network) - Adam Muema rushed 26 times for career-highs of
255 yards and four touchdowns to push the San Diego State Aztecs to a 42-28
victory over the Wyoming Cowboys in a Mountain West Conference contest at War
Memorial Stadium.
Adam Dingwell completed 19-of-24 attempts for 124 yards and two touchdowns
with one interception while under center for SDSU (9-3, 7-1 MWC). Derek
Largent had a strong showing on the defensive side of the ball with six stops,
one sack, one forced fumble, and one recovery.
San Diego State clinched at least a share of the Mountain West title with the
victory. Fresno State also finished the season 7-1, while Boise State is 6-1
and will finish its season next week against Nevada.
Brett Smith paced Wyoming (4-8, 3-5) by throwing for 260 yards and two
touchdowns on 19-of-35 passing. Smith also added two rushing touchdowns while
D.J. May tallied a team-best 87 yards on 15 carries. Robert Herron set career-
highs with 10 receptions and 187 yards while tying his career-high with two
touchdown grabs. Siaosi Hala`api`api anchored the Cowboys' defensive unit with
12 total tackles and a forced fumble. The loss snapped Wyoming's three-game
winning streak and ended its 2012 campaign.
The Aztecs struck first when Muema dashed six yards into the end zone with
just under six minutes left in the opening quarter. Smith answered with a 28-
yard run on Wyoming's ensuing drive to even the score, 7-7.
The Mountain West rivals went back and forth in the second frame. The Cowboys
took a 14-7 lead three minutes into the quarter when Smith punched it in from
a yard out. San Diego State responded with an 11-play, 75 yard drive which was
concluded with an 11-yard touchdown pass from Dingwell to Gavin Escobar.
The Cowboys quickly went back up by a touchdown as they scored 33 seconds
later when Smith found Herron for a 70-yard scoring strike, but the Aztecs
produced a 75-yard scoring drive that Muema capped off with a 2-yard rush
across the goal line on their next possession.
Wyoming then took over on its own 25-yard line with 1:28 left before halftime.
Smith moved the offense into SDSU's territory before completing a 42-yard
touchdown pass to Herron as time expired. Herron's second touchdown grab of
the contest put the Cowboys in front, 28-21, at halftime.
San Diego State's defense came out of the break with intensity as the Cowboys'
first five second half possessions consisted of four punts and a turnover on
downs. The sixth Wyoming drive ended as time expired.
While the defense thrived, the Aztecs' offense game the team control on the
scoreboard. Muema rushed 34 yards for a touchdown at the 10:51 mark of the
third stanza to tie up the score at 28.
Dingwell completed the go-ahead six-yard touchdown pass to Adam Roberts in the
final minute of the third quarter. Muema broke away for an 82-yard run to make
it 42-28 with 13:11 remaining in regulation, and neither team managed to
produce any more points the rest of the way.
San Diego State tallied a season-high 564 yards of total offense to earn a
share of the league's conference title.

Over at Gamasutra, Leigh Alexander serves up a revealing interview with John Riccitiello.
The Electronic Arts CEO dishes on the Spore DRM controversy, EA's abortive merger attempt with Take-Two, and EA's reputation in the gaming community.
Most noteworthy are Riccitiello's comments on the furor whipped up by Spore's much-maligned copy protection scheme:
I personally hate DRM. I don't like the whole concept; it can be a little bit cumbersome. But I don't like locks on my door, and I don't like to use keys in my car… I'd like to live in a world where there are no passports. Unfortunately, we don't – and I think the vast majority of people voted with their wallets and went out and bought Spore…
Everyone gets that we need some level of protection, or we're going to be in business for free… [But it was] a minority of [anti-DRM] people that orchestrated a great PR program. They picked the highest-profile game they could find. I respect them for the success of their movement.
I'm guessing that half of them were pirates, and the other half were people caught up in something that they didn't understand. If I'd had a chance to have a conversation with them, they'd have gotten it… There are different ways to do DRM; the most successful is what WoW does. They just charge you by the month.

The U.S. health care system is complex and, unfortunately, has major problems that can sometimes make people sicker rather than healthier. The maternity care system is no exception. Getting excellent care and having a safe, healthy, and satisfying pregnancy and birth experience can be challenging. It is much more likely when you know your maternity care options and participate actively in all aspects of your care and your baby's care.
This section of the website provides the basic information women need to make sense of our maternity care system and learn how to navigate it to achieve a healthy and safe birth.

Hey y'all!
Phew - I'm back. It was a much needed vacation as I mentioned and the time away from LIFE was great. Well, up until I got sick.
If you were following my updates on Twitter you would've seen that Kalil + I were innocently enjoying our trip out west with my fam to visit my dad's fam when a nasty virus arrived on the scene (I won't mention the names of those who brought it because we're related - for now.) Despite all the Airbourne, hand scrubbing and other preventative measures we took, it was all in vain: we both caught the flu. And NO, we didn't get our shots and YES we should've just done it. Lazy asses.
Anyway, before being struck down by illness we happened to be scouting out some good Columbus Day deals at the Banana Republic outlet in Vacaville, CA when I eye-spied a noticeably tall, blond and broad boy (I'm partnered, not dead people.) And what to my wondering eyes should appear but the used-to-be-retired-now-making-a-returnament JAN-MICHAEL GAMBILL!
After some discussion with Kalil and my brother, I shamelessly ambushed the baller. I walked up to JMG, introduced myself and told him I had read about his "comeback" to tennis which he said was true. In fact, he was on his way up to a Challenger-level event but decided to stop for some shopping. I asked if I could take a picture with him (above) and wished him luck. Afterwards, we both returned to our shopping ways.
He's quite tall, toned and broader than he appears on TV. Plus, his tan was beyond and his personality sweet. Total randomness.
The rest of the trip was spent coming down with the flu as we made our way to LA, lying in bed while in LA and then flying out of LA somewhat recovered. Although I love vacays, I hate getting sick while traveling and wanted nothing more to be in my own bed. And now I am.
Thanks to everyone for their well wishes both here and on Twitter. It feels good to be back!

Zebra Technologies announces divestiture of Navis
February 08, 2011 - LM Editorial
In a development that may signal a shift in global marine terminal operations, Zebra Technologies Corporation announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to sell its Navis business to Cargotec Corporation.
Navis has long been regarded as an innovator in applications arena for port operations.
The deal, valued at approximately $190 million in cash is expected to be completed during the first quarter of 2011, subject to regulatory approvals, customary closing conditions and working capital adjustments.
Management estimates that the sale will result in an after-tax gain of $30-$40 million, which will be recorded in the period in which the transaction is completed.
The transaction also includes certain business operations serving marine terminal customers that comprised a small part of Zebra's 2007 acquisition of WhereNet, including the WhereNet Marine Terminal Solution product line. All other elements of WhereNet, such as real time location, tags and readers, will remain with Zebra.
Bill Walsh, president of Oakland, Calif.-based Navis, told LM that for shippers, the continued support should not be a question:
"Navis will remain a separate company, run independently as a part of Cargotec corporation. The Navis solutions will continue to work well for our customers and their many different equipment needs"
"Following the sale of Navis, Zebra will benefit from a sharper focus on its core business to drive consistent long-term growth, said Anders Gustafsson, Zebra's CEO in a statement.
He noted that Zebra's concentration in asset tracking with specialty printing, RFID, and real-time locating solutions is used across a broad range of industries and applications – quite apart from terminal operations.
Navis is a leading global appications provider of operating systems to coordinate and automate the planning and management of container and equipment moves in marine terminals and other complex and demanding business environments.

Thanks to DtL reader Alfonso for sending me this hilarious pic of Richard Gasquet joined by two Miami Dolphin cheerleaders. There's talk the Frenchie headcase withdrew from his second round match against Albert Montanes in Miami today. Can anyone confirm?
Anyway, Reeshard looks like he has no idea what to do when sandwiched between two saucy, half-dressed, cleavage-popping cheerleaders. Oh wait - he figured it out:

*shakes head*
Upon seeing the first picture I thought, "those bitches better stay away from my husband#1 but also I'd like to be one of them." Then I saw the second picture and now I'm just embarassed.
You have to admitt he does have a pretty high kick for a guy (I don't know if that's a good thing)
Also, I'm not sure what to think of the little grin he has in the first picture.

If you want to be able to manipulate lines as lines more easily, you could try a vector graphics editor like Inkscape. You can load up your map, draw vector objects on top and style them, then export back to a raster image you can use in Photoshop.
in photoshop, if you want a dashed line, press F5 to bring up the brush menu, choose a hard square brush, select the 'brush tip shape' sub menu and by dragging the handles on the picture of the circle with the arrow, flatten the square into a rectangle. check the spacing button and drag the slider up to taste. Next open the 'shape dynamics' menu. Set the angle jitter to 0 and the control to 'direction'. All other values at 0%. That should give you what you are looking for. I only have CS4 but I think that 7 may have the same controls.
PS7 has the same controls... I still can't bring myself to upgrade This is how I do dashed lines.

Thanks for asking this question, by the way, because I just learned something! I've always just used paths in gimp (the method Hai-Etlik gave) and then imported them into photoshop after the fact if I needed them there.
Thanks for the info guys! It worked, not well, but worked. I will try Gimp, see if it comes out how I want.
Thanks from me, too Gonna try it now!

You can also use the Pen tool to create a path, then stroke it with your dashed-line brush. That might make a somewhat cleaner line, and you can edit the line with the Direct Selection tool to get it exactly where you want it before you stroke it.
To make the stroke, activate the Direct Selection tool, and right-click. Choose "Stroke Path." You may also wish to save your path for later use if you decide you want to change the line later on. Go to the Paths palette and drag the "Work Path" down to the New Path icon. The path will still be editable, too.

Fighting a guy like Jon Jones, you can't really hang your hat on any sort of predictions.
A guy like Quinton 'Rampage' Jackson (32-9 MMA, 7-3 UFC) is a little different story, according to Ryan Bader (13-2 MMA, 6-2 UFC), who spoke to MMAjunkie.com Radio (www.mmajunkie.com/radio) about his impending fight against the former champ in the co-main event of UFC 144.
UFC 144 takes place Feb. 25 at Saitama Super Arena in Saitama, Japan. Main-card fights air live on pay-per-view. Broadcast plans for the preliminary card have yet to be announced.
Bader is on the mend after a two-fight skid that saw him submitted by now-champ Jon Jones at UFC 126 and tapped out by Tito Ortiz at UFC 132. In his most recent performance, he rebounded with a 77-second KO of vet Jason Brilz at UFC 139, which likely saved him from a irrecoverable slide in the light-heavyweight division.
Jackson's place on the ladder is less certain. Nearing the end of a decade-plus career in MMA, he was submitted by Jones in a bid to win back the title and requested a fight in Japan as much for nostalgic reasons as a career boost.
Bader, who won the "The Ultimate Fighter 8," was a fan of Jackson's in his days as a wrestler and before he made it to the UFC. But things have changed now that the two are set to fight.
"You can go back with your career afterwards and say I fought all these guys, but now's not the time," he said. "Now, I get a name like 'Rampage,' and my mindset changes."
Bader brings a strong wresting pedigree to all of his fights, but since emerging from the reality show, he's focused on becoming a dangerous striker. He's so far managed to stop three of his UFC opponents by strikes as well as defeat more experienced strikers such Antonio Rogerio Nogueira.
Jackson, though, presents a more significant threat in that department. Known for heavy hands and a strong chin, he has largely abandoned his wrestling roots for a boxing-centric style. He's managed to stop three of his UFC opponents with his hands and wobble several others with punches.
But Bader agrees with observers that say Jackson has become predictable over the years, and therefore easier to beat.
"You fight a guy like Jon Jones, you really don't know what he's going to bring," he said. "It's hard to bring somebody in and have somebody replicate that.
"But fighting 'Rampage,' you know what he's trying to do. He's trying to walk you down, use head movement, and throw those big bombs on you. He does have some elbows and knees, but watching his fights, you pretty much know what he's going to do."
"But we'll be ready for whatever. Maybe he changed some things up for the Japanese crowd."
Jackson spoke of returning to his roots in a press conference held in Japan announcing the Feb. 25 event. A star of the now-defunct PRIDE, he said the Japanese audience encouraged him to take more risks when he fought, which lead to more exciting performances.
Jackson's powerbomb of Ricardo Arona at "PRIDE Critical Countdown 2004" remains one of the most spectacular pieces of highlight tape in the sport.
Bader isn't sure which fighter he's going to face, so he's prepared for either.
"It's not 'Rampage' the guy I grew up watching," he said. "It's 'Rampage' the guy standing across the cage that I've got to go out there and beat."

Notes on Gonzaga, Nitroball and Cisar
CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Before you trash those busted brackets, let's take one last look at the NCAA men's basketball tournament.
With all the upsets and calamity that ensued over the past month as Louisville stormed to the championship, very few things were considered "givens.''
One of those was the almost-universal condemnation of Gonzaga as the surprise No. 1 seed in the West Region, especially after the Bulldogs lost to Wichita State in the round of 32 (aka the second round to most fans).
The Zags were the first No. 1 seed to fall, but were quickly followed by Kansas and Indiana in the Sweet 16. Louisville was the only No. 1 to reach the Final Four, and the lone team to bring sanity to a group in Atlanta that included two No. 4 seeds and a No. 9.
So was Gonzaga really that much of a bust? Remember, Wichita State ultimately made believers out of a lot of people, storming past No. 2 seed Ohio State in the regional final to get to the Final Four and, once there, narrowly losing to Louisville 72-68.
Or were the Bulldogs unworthy of a top seed since, as their detractors claimed, they played in a weak league - the mid-major West Coast Conference? Well, the pickings there might not seem as easy when you look at what other WCC teams did in the postseason.
So maybe those WCC teams Gonzaga beat up on all season weren't pushovers after all.
But the thing everyone overlooks when throwing the Zags under the bus - what about all those No. 2 seeds, teams that many felt should have been rated No. 1 instead of Gonzaga? None of them made the Final Four, either.
Georgetown, in fact, didn't even win a game, losing to Cinderella Florida Gulf Coast in the round of 64. Miami lost in the Sweet 16, and Ohio State and Duke fell in the Elite Eight.
If you discount Louisville's imperviousness to March Madness, the other No. 1 seeds and all the No. 2s went a modest 13-7 in the tournament. If you include the No. 3 seeds, it's a pedestrian 21-11. Not exactly domination by the best programs in the country.
So piling on the Zags seems a bit much. Let's just chalk it up to increasing parity in Division I. The Zags may not be poster children for underachieving, but at least they had a lot of company in their misery.
Things might look a bit bleak right now for Nitro coach Steve Pritchard, but don't discount his team's chances by the time the postseason rolls around.
The Wildcats (6-4) lost freshman catcher Matt Jewell for a minimum of 4 to 6 weeks with a broken hand Wednesday night, and he could miss the rest of the season. That not only juggles a couple positions in the field, but also likely takes one of the team's two best pitchers - Ryan McDonough - somewhat out of the rotation, since McDonough may now have to work behind the plate almost every day.
Another obstacle is timely hitting. The Wildcats were 0 for 7 with runners in scoring position and were caught looking on third strikes six times in Wednesday's 5-1 loss to No. 1 Hurricane. They've now managed just six runs in their four losses. They also won another game 1-0.
But just when you think Nitro's successful run is coming to a close, you realize that Pritchard has overcome these kinds of things before.
Nitro was clobbered by neighboring rival St. Albans 11-1 in a five-inning mercy-rule game last April, but by the time their best-of-three sectional rolled around three weeks later the Wildcats won in two games 6-1, 6-2 and again played in the state tournament at Appalachian Power Park.
"We hope so,'' Pritchard said Wednesday about getting his house in order. "You never know. I will say this about our kids - this is the hardest they've played all season. They just don't play very smart, and my job is to get us playing smart by the end of the season.''
Nitro has advanced to the state tournament the last six years, playing in the Class AAA finals four times and winning twice.
"We're still in the process of finding a lineup,'' Pritchard said, "finding the best nine who play together. The more games you get in, the more you hope you'll find it. We don't have it, but we haven't gotten a chance to play every day - day in and day out - and that takes care of a lot of things.
"But you've got to give the kids credit. When we play at 7 o'clock, they're here at 4 to lift weights for 45 minutes, then hit for two hours, stretch and throw and play. And do it every day. It's not a lack of effort or want-to. For that to happen - and I think it will happen - you have to try your best every day, and just hope it jells.''
I was glad to get a chance to see Dave Cisar in action again last weekend during a three-team baseball series in Sissonville. Even after all these years, the veteran Magnolia coach hasn't lost a step or a scowl since I first ran across him in the late 1970s.
He's now up to 803 career baseball wins with the Blue Eagles, which, combined with the 158 games he won in 24 seasons as football coach, leaves him just 39 shy of 1,000 victories for his coaching career.
Can you imagine how many games Cisar would have won if the SSAC didn't institute scheduling limits (some will say, mainly because of Cisar)? In his heyday at the New Martinsville school, Cisar would hold virtually no practices. His team would play doubleheaders every day.
