- Definition
Gianotti Crosti Syndrome; Acrodermatitis, Infantile Lichenoid; Acrodermatitis, Papular Infantile; Crosti-Gianotti Syndrome; GCS; Papular Acrodermatitis of Childhood;
Gianotti-Crosti Syndrome is a rare skin disease affecting children between the ages of nine months to nine years;
Major symptoms may include blisters on the skin of the legs, buttocks and arms; The disorder is usually preceded by a viral infection---[NORD 2005]---------------------------Gianotti-Crosti syndrome, or papular acrodermatitis of childhood (PAC), is a self-limited childhood exanthem that manifests in a characteristic acral distribution;
It is rarely associated with systemic findings;
The original cases, described in Italy by Gianotti in 1955, were associated with hepatitis B virus infection, although other viral infections currently account for most cases;
The 2 older, descriptive designations, PAC and papulovesicular acrolocated syndrome (PAS), described indistinguishable clinical entities; PAC is the term most commonly used today; Over the course of 3 or 4 days a profuse eruption of dull red spots develops first on the thighs and buttocks, then on the outer aspects of the arms, and finally on the face; The rash is often asymmetrical;
The individual spots are 5-10 mm in diameter and are a deep red colour; Later they often look purple, especially on the legs, due to leakage of blood from the capillaries; They may develop fluid-filled blisters; Itch is uncommon, particularly if hepatitis B is the cause-------------[dermnet nz website 2006]-----------
Pathophysiology: Although the original reports of this syndrome were attributed to acute infection with the hepatitis B virus, more recent studies have demonstrated that Gianotti-Crosti syndrome is more commonly associated with a number of other infectious agents; The agents that have been reported in association with Gianotti-Crosti syndrome include Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), cytomegalovirus (CMV), respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), coxsackievirus and other enteroviruses, parainfluenza virus, parvovirus B19, poxvirus, human herpesvirus v 6 (HHV-6), rotavirus, human immunodeficiency virus, and group A beta-hemolytic streptococci; Some occurrences have followed immunization with measles-mumps-rubella, hepatitis B, poliovirus, and influenza virus vaccines; Gianotti-Crosti syndrome likely represents a localized cutaneous inflammatory response to deposition of viral particles or bacteria within the dermis as a result of transient viremia or bacteremia; Deposition of immune complexes in the skin may also play a role;

Tempe, AZ (Sports Network) - Evan Gordon poured in 23 points to lead the
Arizona State Sun Devils as they held off the California Golden Bears for a
66-62 decision in a Pac-12 Conference bout at Wells Fargo Arena.
Ruslan Pateev gave Arizona State (18-5, 7-3 Pac-12) a big lift off the bench
with 12 points and eight rebounds while Jahii Carson tallied 12 points and
four steals to help the Sun Devils pick up their fourth win in five outings.
Allen Crabbe and Tyrone Wallace tallied 16 points apiece for California (13-9,
5-5), which had won its previous two games. Justin Cobbs added 13 points, but
he and Wallace were each responsible for four of the Golden Bears' 18
The Sun Devils were in control early on as they used a 12-0 run to jump out to
a 25-9 lead at the 8:19 mark of the first half. Although both teams shot an
even 50 percent from the floor in the opening 20 minutes, Arizona State
attempted eight more field goals due to its 16-13 edge in rebounds and
California's 10 first half turnovers.
After the break, the Golden Bears knocked down 44.8 percent of their attempts
from the field and outscored the hosts, 20-5, in points off of turnovers to
chip away at the deficit. Cal concluded a 17-4 run with a 3-pointer by Cobbs
to make it a two-point affair at 64-62 with 24 seconds left in regulation. The
Golden Bears tried to extend the game by fouling Gordon, who made his first
attempt before leaving the door open for California to tie it up by missing
the back end of his trip to the charity stripe. The visitors were unable to
take advantage as Crabbe turned it over on the next play and Johnathan Gilling
put in another free throw to put it out of reach.
Arizona State held a 32-24 advantage in points in the paint to overcome
California's 23-18 edge in points off of turnovers.

This week marks the start of an interesting experiment by a Dubai-based businessman. Arif Mirza, who earns approximately AED 200,000 (£36,360) a month, will spend 33 days living and working in Dubai as a scrap-collector on a wage of just AED 1,000 (£181) in order to "shine a light on opportunities for the poor."
He plans to strike deals with people to make his money go further – getting free food, perhaps, in return for cooking it – while trying to improve his lot by applying for better jobs as the month goes on.
It'll be a massive change of lifestyle for him, moving from his luxury office in Burj Khalifa to cooking pot-luck suppers with the men with whom he'll be sharing a single room. He'll experience a side of Dubai that many expats rarely see.
It's easy to think that Dubai's all… Read more

Is there an "approved" method for wiping out all calendars and starting over with a blank slate? I mean *really* wipe out all the calendars. I don't want to one by one delete them.

|HHS Dragons 1-1 during tough road stretch
|Written by Kyle Arnoldy
Holyoke knew going into the week's matches that they had their work cut out for them with Haxtun, the top-ranked team in the Lower Platte league, and Fleming, the top-ranked team in the North Central league.
Holyoke was up for the challenge, losing to Haxtun 66-64 in the final seconds of the game and taking down Fleming 52-49 in another close match.
Holyoke 64, Haxtun 66
When the final buzzer sounded on the 64-66 HHS loss to the Haxtun Bulldogs Thursday, Feb. 14, many Dragon fans were in disbelief—disbelief that Haxtun's final bucket wasn't waived off for traveling and disbelief that Haxtun had come back from a 16-point deficit to win by two.
The first quarter set the tone for the back-and-forth match the game would be. Haxtun used their height advantage to get good looks from close while the Dragons' up tempo style of play had them moving the ball up the floor quickly and looking to penetrate the Haxtun zone defense and draw contact. Haxtun took the early lead at 15-12 after the first quarter.
The second quarter was all Holyoke. HHS started the period on an 11-0 run. Deyten Klein had a massive eight minutes as he went off for 12 points to help the Dragons on their way to a 30-point quarter.
Logan Tharp floats a shot over the outstretched hand of a Haxtun
Haxtun may have been the home team, but Holyoke cheers and chants for the Dragons easily drowned out any crowd noise for the Bulldogs. Haxtun only scored 11 points in the quarter, giving Holyoke a 42-26 advantage at half.
"I was really pleased with the way the kids came out ready to play and executed our game plan perfectly," coach Scott Dille said.
Holyoke's offensive surge slowed a bit in the second half, allowing the Bulldogs to claw their way back into the game. Haxtun won the quarter, scoring 18 compared to 10 by the Dragons, cutting Holyoke's lead in half to just eight points.
Haxtun was able to win the crowd back in the fourth quarter as they took control of the game with time ticking away.
With 2:15 left in the match, Haxtun picked up their first lead since early in the second quarter at 60-59. The Bulldogs quickly took advantage of a Holyoke turnover on the ensuing possession and scored again to push the lead to three.
With 17 seconds left in the game and the Dragons trailing by three, Logan Tharp stepped up and sunk a three from the top of the key with a hand in his face. Haxtun pushed the ball up the floor and hit a shot in the lane with 2.5 seconds left to take the lead. Many people in the crowd and on the Holyoke bench thought the play should have been whistled dead for a traveling call, but no such whistle was blown and Haxtun escaped with a 66-64 win.
"I don't feel like that was the reason we lost," Dille said of the no-call for traveling at the end of the game.
Tharp led all scorers with 22 points. He also had three assists and seven rebounds on the night. Klein chipped in with 18 points and six rebounds and Tito Fierro added 12 points and six rebounds.
Holyoke 52, Fleming 49
Once again Holyoke found themselves in a dogfight at the end of the game as they edged Fleming 52-49 for a road win Saturday, Feb. 16.
Dille expressed that he believes his team may have still been tired from the physically and emotionally draining loss to Haxtun two nights before, but they more than made up for it with their mental sharpness.
The Dragons did a great job of moving the ball and getting good looks at the hoop as six different players made baskets in the first quarter alone. HHS held a 14-8 lead after the opening quarter.
Fleming fought back in the second quarter, outscoring the Dragons 22-13 for a 27-30 Wildcat lead at half.
The Dragon defense shined in the second half, allowing very few clean looks at the basket for Fleming. HHS also limited the number of second-chance buckets for the Wildcats as Holyoke had their best rebounding game of the year, according to Dille.
Each team put up 11 points in the quarter, giving Fleming a 41-38 advantage with eight minutes left in the game.
Midway through the fourth quarter, Holyoke stole the lead. The Dragons finished the game at the free-throw line, holding off the Wildcats for the 52-49 victory.
Tharp scored 14 points to lead the Dragons. Klein picked up 13 points and Fierro added 12.
Upcoming action
The Dragons were scheduled to play Yuma Tuesday, Feb. 19. Results will appear in the Feb. 28 issue of the Enterprise.
Yuma is the second-ranked team in the Lower Platte league, with their only loss of the season coming to Haxtun.
Thursday, Feb. 21, the Dragons will hit the road for a rematch with Akron, who beat HHS 68-55 earlier in the season.
Friday, Feb. 22, HHS will host Sedgwick County on parents' night for the last regular season game of the year. The Dragons took down Sedgwick County 70-67 earlier in the season.

text: I have a few questions if anyone could please help me it would be greatly appreciated. I have always dreamed of doing a DIY bear hunt and my wife wants to go too. I have been all over the NM Hunting Guide and Rules, and my head is about to pop. lol They are way different from Oklahoma's regulation book. lol There's a lot more going on other then buy your tag and hunt. My question is, can NR buy over the counter tags for bears? If so is it archery only or can we use other methods such as rifle or bp? I want to do it with a bow but I would like to better my chances for the first time or two. My final question is can NR hunt on public land with there OTC tags or is it private land with a guide only? I fully don't expect to fill a tag the first few season I go. I know I can't drive over then and get one right away(that is not how my luck goes), I am just wanting to go because I have never hunted out of Oklahoma and I am going for the change of scenery, chance to hunt a new animal, and my wife wants to do that for our 10th anniversary. I am not looking to take anyones spot or anything like that I just have a few questions and didn't want to bother the wildlife department with out trying to figure this out on my own first.lol I am going on an elk hunt next fall for the first time if I have the time. Thank you for any help and for any advice.

Item # AVI0058
Don't worry though, we have a lot more Mountain Bike Brakes in stock than that.View Similar Products
Avid Elixir 9 Disc Brake $0.00
As the fearless leader of the Elixir battalion, the Avid Elixir 9 Hydraulic Disc Brake has a lot to live up to. That means offering serious performance and high-end materials without forcing you to take out another mortgage on 'Chateau Velo-Geek.'
Since they're part of the Elixir family, these brakes use Avid's Taperbore technology, which incorporates the fluid reservoir into the piston assembly. This simplifies the system a bit and saves weight over designs that use separate reservoirs. Taperbore also features a new bladder material that reduces air permeability for a smoother feel and more braking power than previous iterations. The carbon fiber levers pivot close to the bars, closer than other makes. The reason for this is that it provides a lever swing that more closely matches the movement of your fingers as they close in towards the handlebars. This is part of what gives Elixirs a natural feel. Combined with the tool-free reach adjust and pad contact adjustment, they're easy to dial in to your particular hands and preferences. Elixir 9 levers are also Matchmaker compatible, which allows you to bolt your shifters, brake levers, and even a RockShox PushLoc remote onto one clamp for a simpler, lighter control arrangement on the bars.
Maintaining a set of Elixir 9s is a snap, even if you're working on your bench at home. Avid Elixirs have top-loading pads, so you can replace the pads without working under the caliper or even removing the wheel. That means less bench-time and more trail-time. Elixir 9s also feature Air Trap technology, which prevents air from entering the reservoir to simplify the bleed process. Avid's Tri-Align Caliper Positioning System makes installation easier, too. The caliper aligns itself to the rotor. Just loosen the mounting bolts, squeeze the lever, then tighten the mounting bolts. It's that easy.
Elixir 9s combine forged two-piece aluminum calipers and HS1 160mm cross-drilled rotors for powerful braking and efficient heat dissipation. The aluminum lever bodies are matched to carbon fiber lever blades for light weight. Elixir levers also include ambidextrous mounts, so you can set up your brakes moto-style if that's what you're used to.
Avid Elixir 9 Hydraulic Disc Brakes are compatible with 160, 180, or 203mm rotors and are available in Storm Grey. Each pre-bled brake includes a hose, a caliper, a lever, and a 160mm rotor.
- TaperBore gets a facelift, and a new air-trap feature resulting in even smoother actuation control
- HS1 Rotors are cross-drilled to shave weight, increase heat dissipation, and provide better braking traction in wet conditions
- Matchmaker compatibility frees up valuable cockpit space (clamps sold separately)

it finally stops
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
There isn't a better feeling than going from mechanical to hydraulic brakes. I put these on my GF's bike and super pumped with the results. Now I don't have to worry about her not being able to stop in time and launching off the side of a hill again.
Very solid stoppers
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
This is one of the best value propositions in the world of disc brakes. You get a full featured brake with a beefy lever pivot, and straight-forward bleeding system. The 7's and 9's tend to hold up better than the 5's in my experience...best part is you can get pads and fluid just about anywhere!

Eating Our Own?
Recently, someone accused Illinois Family Action of "eating our own" for criticizing the positions of a Republican candidate for the Illinois State Senate. Here are the thoughts of one IFA reader, attorney Mark Rouleau, to the notion that conservatives ought not criticize any Republicans running for office:
… Continue Reading
The description of criticism of Republicans as "eating our own" is the product of a reprobate mind and a seared conscience. Such a charge reflects a kind of tribalism. Yeah, rah, rah for our team and our guys because they wear our colors (a la gang style). It doesn't matter if they are upholding godly positions.
Personally, I will vote for pro-life Democrats or third party candidates who believe in traditional marriage and limited government over a Republican who doesn't believe in those things, even if that means that they will cost Republicans on other votes.

UPS Freight rolls out new transit time improvements between U.S. and western Canada
November 18, 2010
UPS Freight, the less-than-truckload (LTL) subsidiary of UPS said this week it has improved transit times between U.S. cities and Calgary and Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
Company officials said that it is focusing on improving service from the southwest and western regions of the U.S., with two-day service from Denver and Las Vegas to Calgary and Edmonton, as well as three-day service to Calgary and Edmonton from the Dallas Metroplex and southern California.
"UPS Freight is always looking for ways to improve the value we offer to
customers," said Ira Rosenfeld, UPS Freight spokesman. "Strengthening our time-in-transit position across the US/Canada markets has been a priority for some time. As demonstrated over the last 2 years, UPS Freight has enhanced time-in-transit in over 1,100 lanes."
When asked what the biggest benefits of this news are for shippers, Rosenfeld cited enhanced speed for shippers to get their product to their end customer faster, which in turn, shrinks their supply chain.
UPS Freight officials also noted that shippers can process, manage and track cross-border shipments through the company's proprietary UPS WorldShip and Quantum View Manage technology.
"This news re-enforces the message that UPS Freight continues to look for ways to provide additional value for our customers," said Rosenfeld. "Despite the challenging economic and industry times, over the last several years, UPS Freight has remained committed to strengthening our LTL freight value proposition along core areas of reliability, speed, and technology."
And UPS Freight President Jack Holmes said in a statement that these lane enhancements further reinforce UPS Freight's strong commitment to improving the overall value proposition for cross-border LTL shipments. He added that these latest moves bring the total number of lane improvements across the Canadian/U.S. border to more than 1,100 in just the last two years, all backed by UPS Freight's no-fee delivery guarantee for customers shipping on its current 525 tariff.

Now You See Me (2013)
Now You See Me SynopsisFour talented magicians mesmerize an international audience with a series of bold and original heists, all the while pursuing a hidden agenda that has the FBI and Interpol scrambling to anticipate their next move in Now You See Me, a visually spectacular blend of astonishing illusions and exhilarating action from director Louis Leterrier (Clash of the Titans).
The Four Horsemen, a magic super-group led by the charismatic J.Daniel Atlas (Jesse Eisenberg), perform a pair of high-tech, high-profile magic shows, first amazing audiences by remotely robbing a Paris bank while in Las Vegas, and then exposing a white-collar criminal and funneling his millions into the audience members' bank accounts, baffling the authorities with their intricately planned capers.
FBI Special Agent Dylan Rhodes (Mark Ruffalo) is determined to make the magicians pay for their crimesand to stop them before they pull off what promises to be an even more audacious heist. But he's forced to partner with Alma (Mélanie Laurent), an Interpol detective about whom he is instantly suspicious. Out of desperation, he turns to Thaddeus Bradley (Morgan Freeman), a famed magic debunker, who claims the Paris bank trick was actually a meticulously planned illusion. Dylan and Alma begin to wonder if the Horsemen have an outside point person. If so, finding him (or her) would be the key to ending the magicians' crime spree. But who could it be? Or could it really be... magic?
As pressure mounts and the world awaits the Horsemen's spectacular final trick, Dylan and Alma race to stay one step ahead of the magicians. But it soon becomes clear that outmaneuvering these masters of illusion is beyond the skills of any one manor woman.

Juan Martin del Potro's titanic quarterfinal match against Andy Murray was apparently a very emotional affair for the Argentine.
The 19-year old's 23-match win streak was broken when he was defeated by the Brit baller 7-6, 7-6, 4-6, 7-5 and he told the press afterwards,
We did good match. The people enjoy the match. He's more happy than me, but I'm not sad, you know.But when speaking to the Spanish media, the 6'6" baller broke down and was unable to continue with the conference:
Clearly J. Martin needed to release all the tension and pressure he's been holding ever since his spectacular run began after Wimbledon.
Congrats to him on a tremendous effort!

Ok, I'm one of those women who gets very moved by man tears. I *love* man tears. He should be proud of himself. But of course when you lose a match you could've won, those are just empty words. So hugs for Delpo, and much more if he wants it. NO! I didn't just say that!
I really need to stop ogling younger men.

For some reason, I make a backup of zimbra by copying 4 directories: /opt/zimbra/store, db, index, openldap-data. Then I remove the old zimbra (M2), install the GA version.
Then I copy these folders to /zimbra with the same permission as they have.
Stop zimbra, start it, in "Starting mta..." step, it require "Password:...".
So, why its require password, and which pwd it needs?
This way of backup old data is okay ?

June 2010 Classic Trucks Readers' Letters - Postage PaidWritten by on April 27, 2010
I was quite impressed with what you wrote in the Driver's Seat February '10 issue regarding our classic trucks. It is nice that you recognize that not all of us have thousands of dollars to put into our trucks, or have the money to have someone else do the work on our trucks. While show trucks have their merit and have some very nice qualities, it is nice to see homebuilt and on a budget types of trucks gracing the pages of the magazine. I believe our homebuilt trucks deserve just as much coverage as the fancy billet-clad show trucks, and it's refreshing to me to see an editor of a vehicle enthusiast magazine recognize it and actually take the initiative to do something about covering homebuilt trucks. It's not just the big spenders that use products from the various advertisers in the magazine; we budget builders also spend our money with those same advertisers. While I'm sure most of our homebuilt trucks will never be show winners, it's is nice to see some of them recognized once in awhile as we love them just the same as anyone else.
John D. Shank
Thanks for the kind words. I'm glad you enjoyed my editorial and agree with me regarding the direction I hope to head in with CLASSIC TRUCKS. I've said many times over the years that the best part of this hobby is the people, and I believe this even more strongly today than I ever have. At the risk of being redundant I really do believe that CT is every bit as much yours as it is mine, and I hope you'll take me up on my request for input. That said, keep your eyes peeled. The next feature you enjoy may well be on your classic truck. RIZ
I've been following you since you first started, 10 years ago or so. I feel we have a lot of in common, and I can relate to you. The article in the latest magazine about the extension of your engine lift was great. I'm always trying to figure out ways to utilize more tools. Of course, you'll always have those who want to pick things apart. But you have inspired me to build one for myself. I'll probably modify it a little. Necessity is the mother of invention. I always have a problem trying to use the correct wall thickness without overkill. I'll probably keep close to that of the engine lift. You don't know how much I appreciated the pix and explanations. I, too, have old trucks and an RV in the backyard. I would like you to take a look at the website my daughter built for me. Thanks for coming back to classic trucks. Keep up the good work.
Hopefully you'll discover some refinements you can add to your version of that body lift. I'm sure there are lots of us guys who hate asking for help-even when we should. The little tricks we come up with during our garage time should be shared not only as helping hands for all but also a good source of entertainment as well. I know a lot of my ideas have made people laugh more than a few times over the years, but then again a lot of 'em have actually worked too! RIZ
First, I would like to apologize to you. When you took over I was not too happy. I had become comfortable with Rob Fortier in the driver's seat. The month prior to you taking over I had written Rob expressing my appreciation for his efforts. Well, then you came in. Call it the natural human mind-set to resist change if you will, but I was sure you couldn't do as good a job as Rob had done. This is primarily because reading Rob's editorials was as close to talking with my dad as I had come since his passing in '06. Well, I have given you some time, and it is clear I need to apologize for my quick judgement; you're doing OK. I couldn't agree more with your statements regarding the parts stores of today. My biggest pet peeve: Why do they have to ask if it has A/C when you ask for a carrier bearing for a '71 C-10. C'mon!
I would also like to let you know how great it is to see articles like the $1,000 low-buck small-block in the April '10 issue. Perfect article for the average Joe trying to raise a family and play with an old truck. I would love to even see some more details on picking out a motor from a junkyard (you guys kind of skipped over that). So please keep writing articles that cater to the guy who builds a truck in a garage that is overcrowded with kid's bikes and the wife's Christmas decorations. I enjoy seeing the cubic dollar rides put out by professional builders but unless I win the lottery, it will always be a balance between groceries, kid's shoes, and items for the truck I love to play with.
Thanks again for a great magazine,
Thanks for giving me an honest chance before packin' it in! Rob is a tough act to follow (in more ways than one, believe me) and just happens to be one of my closest friends as well-so I knew I'd have my hands full taking over his seat.
The parts store thing was something that's always bothered me a bit so it felt good getting it off my chest. Though I bet (hope?) that after a few years experience the parts people I was razzing will become more experienced and gradually become the "old hands" we prefer dealing with. Your used engine idea is a good one; I'll have to work on a version of that in the near future!
Thanks for dropping me a line, I appreciate your input!

Exploration of Values and Frames in Social Media Texts Related to the Homeless Hotspots Debate
Jes A. Koepfler, Clay Templeton and Kenneth R. Fleischmann
Monday, 6:30pm
In this study, we used framing analysis and thematic analysis of values to explore the qualitative relationships between salient values and frames that shape the Homeless Hotspots (HH) debate through social media texts. We identified three key frames in the debate: (1) Entrepreneurship frame evoking Self-Enhancement values, (2) Dystopia frame de-emphasizing the Self-Enhancement values put forth by the Entrepreneurship frame, and (3) Societal Failure frame that emphasizes Self-Transcendence values like universalism. We discuss the implications of these findings and use them to develop hypotheses for a follow-up experiment investigating the relationship between personal values of readers of texts and the texts themselves as well as examination of the timeline of frames and how they are propagated via social media.

Gearing up for the CSCMP Annual Conference
October 17, 2013
Next week, the LM editorial staff will be pushing off to Denver for the Council of Supply Chain Management Professionals (CSCMP) Annual Conference.
As previously mentioned in this space, this is always a big event on many fronts, especially when you factor in all the moving parts it has like keynote speakers, sessions, and, of course, the networking factor.
All of these things are essential ingredients of this conference, but in my opinion it is the latter which always makes CSCMP worth the trip. Think about it: how often are you in the same place with about 3,000 other people that are there to learn about all the different things going on in the supply chain and logistics world?
There really is more going on at CSCMP than there is time to actually get to everything you want to do for certain. That said, you need to come in with a plan to cover your bases in order to see what you want to see and learn what you want to learn. That is easier said than done, of course, but it gets more manageable as time goes on, it seems.
Another great takeaway is that CSCMP does not discriminate when it comes to what you can learn with 20-plus sessions ranging from transportation to warehousing and distribution to case studies to, well, you get the idea.
While sitting in sessions and listening to industry experts update and teach us about what is happening in our industry, there is also time to catch up with old friends and make new ones, too. There are people whom I only see at CSCMP, and when we catch up it is easy to pick up where we left off from the year before.
Even if the host city changes on an annual basis, the themes of learning and networking do not. There is never a dull moment. Can it be draining at the end of a long day at CSCMP? Of course, it can (and will) be. But I bet you anything you will be saying it was time well spent.
LM looks forward to seeing you next week in Denver.

text: By Pastor Vince CarrigSports Writer Michi Prante took all the easy baskets the Lady Trojans would give her and Jessi Hoffert forced dribbles through the heart of Cambridge's defense in the Lady Plainsmen's 52-38 win Friday night in Grant. Prante crept in the back door and also snagged a rebound at the basket, scoring six in the third quarter and 15 for the night. Jessi Hoffert's fourth quarter drive and free throw gave her 15 as well; the two guards co-led the game in scoring. Senior teammates Prante and Hoffert scored the first three points of the fourth quarter and put the game out of reach for Cambridge at 42-30. Jessi Hoffert took over the third quarter with three hard drives to the basket, two of which turned steals into points. Her sixth point of the quarter came after twisting in an off-handed layup while guarded. Prante finished a wide-open offensive rebound and made senior center Shania Metcalf's score easy with a baseline bounce pass in the third quarter. Metcalf posted a "double-double" with 10 points and 10 rebounds. "Jessi Hoffert did a nice job driving to the basket. Michi [Prante] had a number of great assists. She kept her eyes up and attacked the lane," Lady Plainsmen Head Coach Deanne Bishop said after the game. Three pointers from Lady Trojans guard Mikayla Kent and forward Taylor Cross accounted for almost half of Cambridge's third quarter points and kept Perkins County's lead out of double digits. Prante rallied Perkins County by perfecting a three-point play, reaching on a guarded jumper and swishing two more free throws for a 21-17 second quarter Lady Plainsmen lead. Hoffert and Prante hit 6-of-7 free throws in the second quarter to negate Cambridge guard Kent's steal and score as the home team left for halftime on a 14-3 run. The Lady Plainsmen recovered from a 10-0 Cambridge shelling with a three pointer and drive off a floater from Jessi Hoffert. Taylor Cross and Sheldon Cross both stung Perkins County with one "three" and one from the floor each to afford the Lady Trojans with a 10-point lead right after tipoff.P.C. 52, Cambridge 38Cambridge 12 5 13 8—38Perkins Co. 7 16 16 13—52 Scoring leaders–Perkins County: Hoffert, J. 4FG (1[x3]) 4/6FT—15; Prante 6FG 3/3FT–15; Metcalf 5–10; McClenahan 4–8; Cambridge: Cross, T. 3 (2) 1/2–13; Long 3 2/4–8; Kent 2 (1)–7; Cross, S. 2 (1)–7.

Testimony :: Timea Junghaus
Arts and Culture Network Program - Open Society Institute
Human Rights Situation of the Romani Minority
The Romani population in Europe today is variously estimated at between eight and twelve million people.
Precise demographic data are not available, due in large part to "the reluctance of many Roma to identify themselves as such for official purposes, and the refusal of many governments to include Roma as a legitimate category for census purposes."
The May 2004 enlargement of the European Union meant that approximately 1.5 million Roma became EU citizens. The forthcoming accession of Romania and Bulgaria in 2007 will mean an additional 3 million EU citizens of Romani origin.
According to the 2003 representative national study, the number of Roma living in Hungary is between 520,000 and 650,000.
Approximately 41% of the Roma population lives in villages and disadvantaged areas of the country. In the past ten years isolated Roma settlements have rarely been established, but the number of villages and settlements with a Roma majority is increasing. Segregation according to place of living is characteristic of every third of the Roma-dwelt settlements.
12-15% of the Hungarian population live on an income which is less than half of the average, and one third live under the minimum subsistence wage.
56% of Roma households belong to the lowest income tenth of the population, they are poor, in the worst sense of the word, and cannot even obtain food of the necessary quality.
Only 28% Roma men aged 16-64, and 15 % of the women, are employed. 70% of Roma work as unskilled laborers.
The Hungarian Roma community is strongly polarized. The process of emerging into the middle class has started among the Roma, too, and today one fifth of the Roma live at or above the social average level. This, however, is extremely difficult to track and measure, as educated and wealthy Roma tend to opt for assimilation and the relinquishment of their cultural heritage. As OSI Chairman George Soros put it, "it is a very natural inclination to try not to be Roma, to meld into the general population, to assimilate. And therefore what is left, what the rest of the population sees, are the disenfranchised, the underclass. And that is the stereotype that prevails in society."
There is meanwhile a growing underclass, which is not constituted exclusively by Roma, but in which they are strongly overrepresented.
Because of this, researchers and many acknowledged sociologists have concluded that "Roma" does not simply mean an ethnic category, but refers to a particular class, which is excluded due to its lifestyle and appearance. According to this argument, everybody is a Roma who is like a Roma.
This conclusion recognizes the Roma on the basis of a superficial stereotype, and fails to acknowledge the Roma cultural identity. As Roma intellectuals have joined the social and cultural debates, this conclusion was declared offensive and unacceptable. It basically means that the Roma who have repressed their identity during communism, will now suffer cultural oppression.
Cultural identity and the cultural rights of the Roma minority have appeared on the agenda of NGO's, civic organizations, and even the government.
In October 2004, Prime Minister Ferenc Gyurcsany opened the exposition of the government program by saying: "Zhanav kejekh Ungkriko them si: le romengo thaj gazengho them" – "There is only one Hungary: The common country of both Roma and Hungarians."
It was a historical moment: Gyurcsany was the first politician to address the Hungarian Parliament in Romani. The government program strengthened the new Ministry of Equal Opportunities, and fostered the formation of a Roma political elite, which participates in public administration. As a result of the empowerment process, Roma strategic advisers assist the ministers at the Ministries of Education, Cultural Heritage, Agriculture, and Foreign Affairs. (Some of these results were initiated back in 2002, during the Medgyesy administration, whose strategic advisor was Aladar Horvath, the internationally acknowledged Roma rights advocate.)
In the light of all these developments, one might think that Hungary is a role model in the Central and Easter European region for recognizing the Roma minority that this is a place where Roma empowerment is in progress, where the number of educated Roma is growing, desegregation in education, health and housing has begun. Hungary may in fact have advanced furthest in its "experiment" on the Roma minority, trying to keep up with the external expectations of the EU authorities while doing a juggling act of containing the pressure from its minority communities.
The most stirring case of the past years was that of segregated education in Jaszladany,
where "the predominantly non-Romani Gypsy Minority Self-Government […] did not protest the establishment of a local private school created to segregate the local Romani children from the non-Romani children, and the school started operating in the autumn of 2003. By comparison, the previous Gypsy MSG – composed of Roma – fought against the establishment of the private school with all the legal powers available to it, and had effectively blocked (or delayed) the establishment of the school."
According to the Year 2000 Report of the Hungarian Institute of Public Education, "strong segregation tendencies were experienced in the education of Roma children, both among schools and within schools. The report found that 29% of Roma children attended schools with a Roma majority. The data also showed that the Roma children only learn in schools whose prestige is the lowest in the given settlement, and which accommodate the poorest children of the neighborhood."
In 2003, increasing segregation in primary schools was confirmed. Although desegregation programs were initiated in 2003 by the Ministry of Education, the rapidly increasing social segregation and the schooling regulations based on place of residence hindered the desegregation process. The most comprehensive legal framework for education policies is provided by Act CXXV of 2003 on the Promotion of Anti-Discrimination, and the amended Act LXI of 2003 on Public Education. Neither of them empowers the Ministry of Education to sanction discriminative educational practice.
Since 2005, there is an affirmative action program for the enrollment of disadvantaged candidates at universities, who must be accepted if they score at least 80% of the points necessary for admission. The tuition fee is covered by the state.
In the past decades, the most remarkable index of the Roma's failure in education was the number of dropouts in the early phase, in primary school. Today this figure is negligible; the most significant inequality now emerges at the point of starting secondary education. One important reason why Roma children are at a disadvantage when trying to enter secondary education is that many of them study in special needs primary schools (ones for "the handicapped"), or second rate classes, which offer no chance of going on to secondary education.
"The separated education of Roma children is treated by the experts concerned, as if a child coming from a Roma family of multiply disadvantaged situation and showing by the age of 6-7 symptoms characteristic of mentally slightly disabled children needed the same special education as mentally disabled children with organic damages. This is the case because this way of education cannot be supported by any professional or legal argument, what is more, the phenomenon contradicts both the declared integrative aims of the educational system and basic human rights,"
concludes Roma education expert Anna Kende.
Sophisticated, new questions are posed to the authorities by the young Roma intellectuals, scholars, academics, the new Roma elite of pop stars, actors, artists, media experts and the Roma participants of public administration.
Roma intellectuals point out that the majority societies in Central and Eastern Europe consider the culture of the Roma folk or "low" culture. This is the case because of a prejudiced preconception on the part of the majority society, the lack of an infrastructure necessary for the production, representation and promotion of cultural products, and the general social exclusion and poverty. The majority effectively represented Romani productions as being not the works of individual authors, but rather as collective facts of nature which only become concrete representations when presented in some way by the art collector or folklorist. Changing this practice, effecting a society-wide inclusion of Roma culture, is the common responsibility of society – and the chief goal among those aiming for the democratisation of culture. The social inclusion of the Roma people is not possible without cultural recognition and inclusion.
The structure of the majority cultures excludes the literature, music, visual and performing art of the Roma communities. The Roma do not have the opportunity for self-representation, cannot fight stereotypes and discrimination. Having the space, equipment and support for cultural practice is not a luxury. It is a basic human right.
"(…) individuals belonging to minorities should not be denied the right, in community with members of their group, to enjoy their own culture, to practise their religion and speak their language (…) Although the rights protected under article 27 are individual rights, they depend in turn on the ability of the minority group to maintain its culture, language or religion.
Accordingly, positive measures by States may also be necessary to protect the identity of a minority and the rights of its members to enjoy and develop their culture and language and to practise their religion, in community with the other members of the group(…)
The protection of these rights is directed towards ensuring the survival and continued development of the cultural, religious and social identity of the minorities concerned, thus enriching the fabric of society as a whole."
(United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, The Rights of Minorities, Article 27.)
Culture has never been on the agenda of Roma politics and Roma social reform, while changing negative attitudes towards the Roma and stopping the spread of negative stereotypes are the key priorities of many recent initiatives. As a consequence of exclusion, the majority societies form their views of Roma (culture) in accordance with their own preconceptions. Almost all representations are laden with stigmatisation about the Roma – their "men are simple and beastly," "the women are lecherous and promiscuous," "children don't like to study and wash," "the only way for a Roma to success is music and dance"; and we could go on ad infinitum with these ridiculous but seriously held opinions.
Roma artists, cultural agents and institutions are best enabled to stop the spread of prejudiced stereotypes with their own practice, and to act as models before the majority society, as well as the Roma, by confuting these statements, and representing the Roma as a group of civilized, successful individuals, whose dignity is complete and worthy of acknowledgement.
Culture receives a much wider publicity than reforms of the social services, and could consequently have a greater impact on the self-confidence of Roma people, could actually lead to a new Roma consciousness,
a state when successful, wealthy and well-educated Roma proudly acknowledge their origin, rather than opt for assimilation and the relinquishment of their cultural heritage.
Vision has a crucial role in cultural and political debate at any level, and images are at least as influential and informative as written or spoken language. In today's world of electronic media, images reach out to more recipients than any written discourse.
In 2002, two young Roma artists, Norbert Szirmai and Istvan Révész made a 15-minute documentary film entitled "
Fradi is Better
The film shows the fans (a crowd of more than 500 persons) of the football team in their Budapest stadium, singing and cheering with racist rhymes and songs. It is a shocking and frightful document of extreme racism and anti-Roma sentiment. The film is well known in Hungary, Romania, Austria and the Czech Republic. It has been an important tool in generating solidarity, evoking empathy and making Roma hatred visible in the region.
Another example of the effect of images disseminated in the cultural scene:
" '
Oláh Action,' an Internet game with the objective of killing all Roma in
could be accessed on the Internet despite previous police action to remove the game. The game, in which
is declared "clean" and turns white after all Roma are killed, first appeared in February 2005. The game received over four thousand visitors.
reported that the police dropped the investigation. Lieutenant Colonel Ferenc Toth was quoted as having stated that the game does not fall within the legal concept of incitement, while admitting that the language and content of the game demonstrate contempt for the Romani community and that the pop-up text is abusive. Police ordered the game to be removed from the host server, but RomNet reports that it is still available on many websites."
For a healthy, proud and educated future for the Roma, it is essential that they consciously play with their identity,
and create their own representations. The youngest generation of Roma intellectuals are the last generation to be able to interact with the survivors of the Roma holocaust. This is the last chance to collect oral history, and to create representations of the Roma holocaust which involve the survivors. Artists play an integral role in the processing of these traumas of societies and in preserving these memories and lessons, in handing them down to the future generations. It was in 2004, on the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the Holocaust, that Roma contemporary artists could enter M?csarnok, the temple of Hungarian contemporary art, and create, together with established European artists, works that reflected on the Roma holocaust.
These artistic expressions encourage broad debates. The Roma claim the recognition of their culture. This recognition will create pride and empowerment. At present, Roma culture is a victim of ghettoization, and is damned to stay within the walls of marginal cultural centres, self-governments, and Roma NGO's. There is a need for a Roma Museum in Central and Eastern Europe, which can take up the mission of collecting the fragments, and represent the pluralism and diversity of European Roma Culture.

Nicolae Gheorghe suggests that the representation of Romani identity is a process of ethno-genesis, which involves the Roma self-consciously playing with their identities.

This lush-looking, professionally designed centrepiece has few flowers but lots of filler with different textures and tones, including red hypericum berries, silvery eucalyptus, lacy ferns, delicate boxwood and bronze-and-green magnolia leaves.
Get the look for less by augmenting or replacing florists' greens with various garden prunings—such as ivy, periwinkle and euonymus, or other shrubs with interesting leaves—to dress up a handful of blooms. Anchor stems in florists' foam, such as Oasis, taped inside a footed container (or a glass bowl placed in a small urn). To keep the look loose yet balanced, gently turn the arrangement as you go.

Map (Click to enlarge)
Created in: Fractal Terrains / Illustrator / Photoshop
When one first looks at the maps created by HandsomeRob, designer of our current featured map, the first reaction is often, "Is this a real location?" or "Is this from Google?" or "What atlas was this created for?" But the world being mapped in detail--of which Northwestern Azhnar is but a small piece--is completely fictional. The attention to detail and the high verisimilitude of the cartography is awe inspiring, and although perhaps appearing scientific rather than artistic, no one can doubt the high level of inspiration, skill, and mental elbow grease Rob has exerted to create all of his wonderful maps. Azhnar is but one of many, many Sorol maps, most of which Rob posts here at the Guild.
Artists Notes
It's my dream to map an imaginary world in detail. The Atlas of Sorol consists of a set of about 30 regional maps, which will eventually cover the entire surface of the planet. I started this project about six years ago with some very rough maps at the continent scale, but it soon became apparent that I would need more detail in order to satisfy myself. Around that time I also got a job as a professional cartographer, allowing me to hone my skill in creating atlas-type maps. I knew when I started that it would be an enormous project, but it's work that I love to do so I welcome that.
These maps are created using a combination of Fractal Terrains, Adobe Illustrator, and Photoshop. The world file was created in FT; I have manipulated it slightly, by adding a few islands and connecting some large coastal lakes to the ocean to create bays, but otherwise it's straight out of the box. I only use the coastlines and relief from FT, however, as I prefer to define climate and landcover myself. The majority of the artwork (boundaries, roads, rivers, settlements, labels) is created in Illustrator, and then the map background is touched up in Photoshop, adding the FT shaded relief to the landcover polygons from Illustrator.
The entire project is hosted at http://sorol.wikispaces.com, which is updated frequently with new maps, information, and photos.

Maria Sharapova took some time out during the recent Sony Ericsson Baller Party to discuss her injury status and also to pimp out the latest SE T707 phone.
But pay attention to Shrieka's shocking transformation starting around the 2:30 mark. Let's just say ReRe could probably do a better job at acting - and that's not saying much.

So funny, she looks like she is in pain ;)ReplyDelete
You're right. It sounds like she's reading from cue cards...badly.ReplyDelete
Also is it me or is she looking a little drag queen-ish?
It's not you Allison - she's (he's?) in full-on drag mode.ReplyDelete
Oh wow. Yeah Allison, she is definitely reading off of cue cards, and she's doing it very badly. Oh that hair -- gaaaah! I want to take a flat iron to it or throw a bucket of water on her head because that look isn't working.ReplyDelete

HAHAHAHA...i kept looking at her and kept wondering why she looked so weird..she does look like a drag.ReplyDelete
The interview was going great until that last bit. I don't know if it was the robotic tone of her voice or the questionable/1940's detective expression on her face. LMAO. That was great.ReplyDelete
I kept waiting for her to say "and tomorrow we will see partly cloudy skies with a chance of rain. Back to you Skip."ReplyDelete
Why would she be promoting a Sony Ericsson phone when she is still under contract(I'm assuming) with Motorola? Anyone?ReplyDelete

ROFL! That was terrible! I didn't believe anything she said about Sony Ericsson. Especially with that hair. Bleh! And the excessive head movements/nodding during the cue card session were totally distracting.ReplyDelete
Anyone else find it sort of awkward when she talked about how some of her "fans" aren't even aware she's been out with an injury? Ummm, what? Why would you advertise that?

Masha, make it stop!!
AAAAH! Scary!!!! and HILARIOUS.ReplyDelete
Can't tell if she's about to crack up or hyperventilate.

Great First Day
We'll do anything to hasten spring, it seems. If you forgot to set your clocks ahead an hour, it might be because Daylight Saving Time hit early this year (part of an energy plan passed by Congress). That gave us a strange weekend of frigid wind chills on Saturday morning and a late, summer-like sunset the very next day. Maybe it feels like we're forcing spring out of the longest winter in years. But that's okay. Because there really were some brave souls who stood in line for tickets at Kauffman Stadium early Saturday morning on the first day single-game tickets went on sale. Most clicked on to royals.com, of course. And called 1-800-6ROYALS. Opening Day against the Yankees on April 8 went fast. Royals Nation bought 11 percent more the first day than last (and 41 percent more than 2006). Our sales people tell us we're up 12 percent from this time last year in all ticket sales. That's about 100,000 tickets more than at this point in '07. We're ready for a new season, you bet. On the calendar and at the K. Thanks for your support.

It just shows how great and passionate Royals fans are..Put a good product out there and the K fill start filling up…Go Royals. kudos to David Glass for allowing Dayton Moore to add some pieces to the puzzle.

I would like to archive all incoming and outgoing mails by forwarding a copy of the mail to an additional SMTP server. I am aware that I can send BCC of all emails to a particular log account using always_bcc.
However I need to retain the original sender and receiver address in the SMTP handling, so that the archive server will process the mail with the corresponding control data. Using always_bcc the recipient header will get changed to the address where it will be copied.
To make myself more clear, if email@example.com was the original recipient and email@example.com was set in always_bcc, the SMTP on archive server will read the destination as email@example.com and not email@example.com My requirement is that the archive SMTP should also read the destination as email@example.com itself.
I have been using Exim in the past for this, and I would simply add a router to accomplish the additional remote_smtp transport. What could be the equivalent of this in postfix?

I've done that, but without the color change. I'd rather keep the systems 100% separate AND not have cords draped through the house.
These outlets don't do ANYTHING unless a generator he had installed in the corner of his yard is fired up. He would then have to change his equipment from one outlet to the other by hand to make them work on the generator.
I also have 15w bulbs on a generator only circuit that feeds light sockets in various places. No candles needed to get around the house.

My purpose in this tutorial is to show how to create a Photoshop map of a medieval town containing a great deal of flexibilitymeaning it could be either used as a photorealistic map or (with the help of one or more Photoshop filters) an artistic map. Above and beyond this, I also tried very hard to streamline the process so the map could be created exceedingly quickly. Flexibility and speed: two cartography goals worth pursuing, I think, if a high degree of quality can be maintained.
I am assuming you know the basics of Photoshop, such as selecting items, layer manipulation, brush use, etc. The most advanced techniques I'll use are layer masks and layer styles--so nothing out of this world. However, if these seem exotic to you I'd suggest you perform a quick Internet search and follow a few simple PS tutorials to become acquainted with the program.
The program Ill use is Photoshop CS2, but I think everything I do works in both older or newer versions as well. For this tutorial I also use an "Rolepalying City Map Generator" program which can be downloaded free of charge from the developer's website (see below)--but you need not utilize this application if you choose to work by hand.
Attached below is the basic map I'll create. At the end of this tutorial I will also show "artistic" variations of this basic image created in mere seconds.
Finally, let me say I am a PS and cartography amateur, completely self-taught in both areas. If you note any suggestions, improvements, or corrections in my work, I would be grateful if you let me know! I write tutorials to teach myself more than for any other purpose, and I'd accept any and all assistance you can kindly offer.
On we go!

AUBURN, Wash. (May 2, 2014) – Spot On Babe held off Clemens Brook in a driving finish for a half-length victory Friday in the $12,700 feature race for older fillies and mares at Emerald Downs.
With Leslie Mawing riding his fourth of a record five-straight winners Friday, Spot On Babe ran 5 ½ furlongs in 1:02.42 on a fast track and paid $3.60, $2.80 and $2.60. Frank Lucarelli is the trainer for owner Ron Crockett Inc.
Mawing rode the final five winners of the seven-race card, breaking the track record of four wins in a row held by several riders.
Mawing swept races three through seven, scoring triumphs aboard Nancy Wake ($9.60), Our Pretty Woman ($8.40), He's a Cruiser ($7.80), Spot On Babe and Making Fire ($9.20). Mawing, 40, has 2,125 career victories and is No. 6 all-time with 507 wins at Emerald Downs.
"When I looked at the (Daily Racing) Form I knew I had pretty live mounts tonight," Mawing said. "I'll say this much, I didn't know it was going to be this good.
"I've won six in a row before, but never on the same day,"
Seth Martinez in 2008 and Kevin Radke in 2002 share the track record of six winners in a day at Emerald Downs—but they accomplished their feat on 10-race programs, and neither rode five winners in a row.
Spot On Babe joined Always the Same, Cha Cha Latte and Vegas Burn as two-time winners at the seven-day-old meeting. A 4-year-old Washington-bred by Tribal Rule, Spot On Babe is 4-0-0 in seven lifetime starts with earnings of $31,422, including $6,985 for Friday's victory. Clemens Brook, a 15-to-1 long shot ridden by Jennifer Whitaker, battled Spot On Babe the length of the stretch but settled for second place. Clemens Brook paid $12 and $8.40.
Kenzie Carolina, with Ronald Richard riding, finished third and paid $4.60 to show. Seventyprcentcocoa, Run Sophia Run, Agoodlawyer Willdo and Better to be Lucky completed the order of finish.
NOTES: With his five-win night, Mawing leapfrogged into second place in the jockeys' standings with 12 wins, two behind Rowen Bowen, who had his first winless day of the season. . .21-year-old trainer Howie Gibson posted his first two-win day at Emerald Downs as Sweet Sara Brown ($5) and Our Pretty Woman ($8.40) scored gate-to-wire triumphs in races one and four. . .Not to be outdone, trainer Vince Gibson saddled the first and second-place finishers of race five, with He's a Cruiser ($7.80) edging stable mate Buds a Flyin for the victory in 1:09.87 for six furlongs. . .Live racing continues Saturday with a special 1:15 p.m. first post. The 140th Kentucky Derby will be simulcast at 3:24 p.m. (Pacific), between races four and five at Emerald Downs. . .Del Rio Harbor, the track's best 2-year-old last year, makes his 2014 debut Sunday in a $22,575 allowance race at 5 ½ furlongs.

Jelena Jankovic and constant companion Lefty (still worried) were spotted at a beach tennis photo call in Marbella this past weekend for the Andalucia Tennis Experience.
Color me THRILLED to see JJ finally won a match after going on a disappointed 2-match losing streak during March Madness. The former top lady baller defeated Francesca Schiavone 6-2, 6-1 in the tourney's first round - a sign she's gaining some bearings or she's not as lopsided anymore.
In any case, I'm gonna celebrate even if she won't!
*throws glitter sky high*
*throws on horrid fashion*
Damn, that felt good.

Let me add something for the fan that are worried for her.ReplyDelete
I saw in her practice in the Miami Open and I don't want to trash her coach cause he help her some, but her drills and practice seems so kinder garden. Not do add that the sparring that the coach got her doesn't impress anybody, and it was a lefty!!! Why you want to practice all the time with a left hand it when you are not playing one?? Its JJ preparing defeat Nadal??
More impress female practice that I saw:
Zheng Jie
Azarenka (Vesnina got badly beat)
The Williams (even the sparring of Venus its a big guy with no balance)
Sorry for the long post...this subject can continue on and on.
My honest opinion JJ need to said "thanks so much coach" and move on to other later.
Thanks Uvijek for that on-the-ground reporting! Yeah the whole left-handed practice partner is strange.ReplyDelete
Does anyone have any more info on Ricardo Sachez - who he's coached and when?
- AnonymousApril 7, 2009 at 10:30 PM
The owner of wtawommenstennis blog was in Miami and wrote on his/her blog that JJ was training with a good partner that pushed her to the limit. Anyway, it was over. It's CLAY now!ReplyDelete
About Ricardo Sanchez, I only remembered someone said he coached Carlos Moya and helped him reached No.1.
I watched her match against Francesca yesterday, she did pretty well, great groundstrokes, wonderful movement. I'm sure she will do well on clay. Good luck to her!
- AnonymousApril 7, 2009 at 10:56 PM
*Ricardo coached Moya when he was no. 1 or helped him reached no. 1(not quite sure). He worked with davydenko too.ReplyDelete
good job jj!!ReplyDelete
- Uvijek ArgenApril 8, 2009 at 2:56 AM
"JJ was training with a good partner that pushed her to the limit." ( I like Marija blog but didn't read anything that she said that). Ok to give a example of that sparring, Sanchez try to do cross cross 3 times and then parallel, but the guy its a lefty and couldn't give her the balls right. That and many other things that wont help her in training.
Please if you have something, a picture or a article that Sanchez coach Davydenko I will appreciated. From what I know Kolya always practice with his brother, and maaaaaybe somebody in Germany help him with advice for him and his brother, but that's about it.
You see, coaching in this days are like a job resume, you can lie anytime. They said they trained somebody when a player go and use their facilities just to practice (take Bolettieri as example). So dont take "I heard they practice with...", cause its not all true in the pro world of tennis.
My trip to Miami was specially to study coaches drills and such ( Im coaching 2 kids at this moment with potential but not high hopes), and there are some coaches that are getting paid really well for nothing, BUT!! the player like him or her and there you have it.
Once again in the list of good coaches with good advice that I heard
was all the one that I mention before in the previous post and I can include Radwaska coach,Sven from Adidas and Wozniacki father ( wish was sitting in front of me studying Dokic game for her daughter next game).
- AnonymousApril 8, 2009 at 5:57 AM
It's not Marija's blog by the way, the other one. Well, JJ has been working with him since 2006/2007 on a past-time basis because Sanchez was under some contract at that time, it was until last year that he became JJ's full-time coach. Well, only she knows whether he is good for her, it's hard to merely look at it.
About davydenko, someone on a forum said about it so I'm not sure.
To me I think mental is an important issue.
You said Sven is good and I think he is good too but why Ana played badly after she won Roland Garros last year. Does it mean that Sven is not good then?!
- AnonymousApril 8, 2009 at 5:58 AM
*part-time basis.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousApril 8, 2009 at 6:14 AM
sven helped ana get to 3 slam finals, win a slam of her own and get to no.1. he was only with her on a part-time basis because he's an adidas employee, ana had to share sven with other players under the adidas dev't program. she needed someone who could focus on her alone when the pressure and expectations piled up (add the thumb injury to the mix as well). sven is currently working with wozniacki and mirza now, let's see how he will be able to improve their games.ReplyDelete
as for jj, i heard that she already fired her strength and conditioning coach. it's a good move, imo.
Interesting article.ReplyDelete

New to zimbra.
Currently I have 2 servers, my production mail server is sendmail/dovecot with about 200 users on it. It has openwebmail as a webgui.
I loaded up the VMware version of zimbra on a second server. I would like test out Zimbra with 20 of my users.
Is there a way to keep my production server with 180 accounts active and working and have 20 accounts on zimbra active and working.
I was thinking if I have my production server as Zimbra's upstream mail server this could work but I thought there might be a better way to do this.
Also just a curiosity question, is anyone running the VMware version in production?

Vernal Equinox
Astronomical spring arrives on today, the 20th at 7:02 AM. This is the Vernal Equinox when the sun is directly over the equator which creates equal day and night in each hemisphere. Just so you know you can stand an egg on its end any time of the year. The sun directly overhead doesn't change any gravitational pull down here on earth as far as the egg is concerned. The Vernal Equinox marks the beginning of astronomical spring. We go into spring while the southern hemisphere heads into fall. You might ask why the sunrise and sunset times are not exactly twelve hours apart on the first day of spring. The earth's atmosphere bends the light so there is not exactly twelve hours between the sunrise and sunset today. As we move toward summer the sun's angle will continue to rise. The angle of the sun is the key to climate. Yes, the days get longer and the jet streams retreat to the north but the angle of the sun is what drives climate. The higher the angle, the more overhead, the stronger the sun's rays will be. Todays sun is the equivalent of September sun so start using the sun screen. You might also be asking yourself why it's not the same time and same day every year. The solar year is about 365 and a quarter days so the time and date of spring and of all of the seasons can vary about a day or so. March came in like a lamb let's hope it goes out like one.
The Cherry Blossom Festival begins today and runs through April fourteenth, more on the festival tomorrow.

We have the worst possible GM - who can't draft
A HC coach that is an egomaniac and does not want to bring in any decent coordinators to help
Our offensive play calling is the worst - any of the forum readers / posters can do a better job blindfolded.
An owner that does not want to pay for talent
Outside of QB, this team does not have any talent. Most of our players will not even be backups in most of the other teams
Our QB is either elite or a choke artist
The people who post here are either d-bags, trolls, morons, pink hats, idiots, retards, juvenile, 12 year olds or 65 year olds - or all of the above.
Progrnosis - we are either going to go 16-0 and win the superbowl or 7-9 and miss the playoffs.
Did I miss anything?
