Collective Autonomous Mobile Robot Technology Developed
A research team at a local university has developed a collective autonomous mobile robot system.
``We have developed a behavior learning algorithm for the collective autonomous mobile robots,'' said Dr. Sim Kwee-bo, associate professor of engineering at Chung-Ang University.
He said the novel robot technology is based on reinforced learning and conditional evolution.
``Cooperative behavior is a high level phenomenon observed in the society of social animals,'' Dr. Sim, who led the research team.``Recently the emergence of cooperative behavior in collective autonomous mobile robots becomes an interesting field in artificial life.''
The professor said that collective autonomous mobile robots can adapt to a given environment by means of reinforced learning.
The reinforcement learning is generated by a fuzzy inference engine. Dynamic recurrent neural networks are used as an action generation module, according to the new robot system.
``We also propose conditional evolution for the emergence of cooperative behavior,'' said Dr. Sim.
He explained that the evolutionary conditions are spatio-temporal limitations to the occurrence of genetic operations. …

I've read and tried to implement variations on about 10 different solutions for this so far from stack overflow, and none of them are working. All I want to do is replace the content between two pre tags (including the tags themselves). I don't care if it's regex or straight up php. Anyone have any suggestions?
An example is:
This is how to remove pre tags and their contents:

[code here]
That's all there is to it.
This is how to remove pre tags and their contents:

That's all there is to it.
This needs to happen before the html is rendered to the page.
I'm not sure DOMDocument will work. The context for my code is that it is happening within a plugin for expression engine (a codeigniter / php based CMS). The plugin truncates the html to a set character length, and renders that back to the parent template to be rendered in the browser - so the domdocument can't render to the browser - it just needs to return the code to the parent template with the tags and content removed.

No Elite four in Pokemon World Tournament??

I was wondering this for a long while.
The Pokemon World Tournament gathers the strongest Pokemon trainers in the world?
Where are all 18 Elite four members? they are stronger then all Gym leaders...
so why aren't they there? I doubt they are on duty cause how is it possible taking the Elite four without gym leaders to earn badges and Champion to beat... The World Tournament is lacking Dark-Type Pokemons which are specified by either Karen and Sydney who are Elite four members.
I love the PWT but I can't and will not agree with the fact that some of the strongest trainers besides rivals aren't part of it.
What do you guys think of it? And do you agree?
Gliscor is boss. Period.

I am 34 weeks and 4 days. This afternoon I noticed that the lower part of my belly began to feel very tight and heavy...with a pulling feeling. it is even worse now. I feel like I have to hold up my belly with my hands while standing. I am not really worried, but am wondering if any other ladies have felt this at this stage in the game. I haven't had these sort of sensations in many, many, many weeks. Since before I "popped", really.
I have also have had intermittent menstrual cramp feelings in my lower belly and back. Maybe two or three times a day for the last two or three days. I don't think it is BH...it lasts longer...like cramps. I am also chalking that up to normal pregnancy stuff...but figured I would ask.

Credit Swaps Decline to Six-Month Low After U.S. Jobs Report
The cost of protecting bonds from default in the U.S. fell every day this week, dropping to the lowest in more than six months, after payrolls rose more than forecast, bolstering optimism the labor market is recovering.
The Markit CDX North America Investment Grade Index, which investors use to hedge against losses on corporate debt or to speculate on creditworthiness, fell 0.9 basis points to a mid- price of 85.4 basis points, according to index administrator Markit Group Ltd.
"Payrolls really surprised on the upside -- I'd expect on a normal day we'd be substantially tighter," said Mikhail Foux, a credit strategist at New York-based Citigroup Inc. "That tells us in my opinion that people are a little tired."
The index has lost 9 basis points this week, the biggest slide since July, after the Nov. 2 elections resulted in a divided Congress and the Fed said it will buy $600 billion of Treasuries to bolster the economy. Swaps on New York-based Goldman Sachs Group Inc., the most profitable securities firm in Wall Street history, fell 18.9 basis points over the five-day period.
Payrolls climbed 151,000, exceeding the median estimate of economists surveyed by Bloomberg News, Labor Department figures showed today. Private payrolls that exclude government agencies also gained more than forecast, while the jobless rate held at 9.6 percent.
Less of a Worry
Credit-default swaps on Morgan Stanley, based in New York, dropped 15.2 basis points this week, CMA data show. Contracts on Wells Fargo & Co., based in San Francisco, slid 15.1 basis points, according to CMA.
The swaps on the banks had jumped amid the controversy over whether the mortgage industry has taken improper shortcuts to speed up foreclosures and on demands from bond investors that lenders repurchase faulty securitized loans.
Banks don't suffer from constrained liquidity right now, said Ricardo Kleinbaum, a credit analyst at BNP Paribas SA in New York. "Secondly, this whole mortgage repurchase issue, and this is true for all financials, could be less of a credit worry than some people anticipate."
Banks have benefited as the Fed has implemented quantitative easing and as investors have reevaluated the impact of mortgage-foreclosure put-backs, according to Kleinbaum and Foux.
Fed Guidelines
Other factors pushing bank swaps lower are the news that the Federal Reserve is preparing guidelines to assess whether banks are strong enough to boost dividends or buy back shares, and Representative Spencer Bachus's Nov. 3 comment letter saying the so-called Volcker rule barring bank holding companies from trading on their own accounts will hurt U.S. competitiveness and cut profits at the largest such companies, Foux said. Bachus, an Alabama Republican, may become the next chairman of the Financial Services Committee.
The Markit index, which typically falls as investor confidence improves, rose earlier as the cost of insuring sovereign debt surged to a record. Austerity measures in Europe's so-called peripheral countries are failing to reassure investors that fiscal crises are under control.
Four U.S. issuers defaulted this week, bringing the U.S. total to 50 and global count to 73, according to a report by Standard & Poor's dated today.
Credit swaps pay the buyer face value if a borrower fails to meet its obligations, less the value of the defaulted debt. A basis point, 0.01 percentage point, equals $1,000 annually on a contract protecting $10 million of debt.

"Planet B-Boy," director Benson Lee's break dancing documentary for Elephant Eye Films, jumped past all art-house releases with a debut, per-screen average of $13,889. "Under the Same Moon," director Patricia Riggen's immigration drama, a co-release for Fox Searchlight and the Weinstein Company, broke opening-weekend records for a Spanish-language film with three-day earnings of $2.8 million from 266 screens. "Love Songs," French filmmaker Christophe Honore's Paris- set musical for IFC Films and Red Envelope Entertainment, averaged $10,244 from two New York runs. Rounding out the iWBOT Top Five, which ranks films by per-screen average, were "Boarding Gate," French filmmaker Olivier Assayas' thriller featuring Asia Argento and Michael Madsen, and "Praying with Lior," director Ilana Trachtman's documentary for First Run Features about a Jewish boy with Down's Syndrome preparing for his Bar Mitzvah.
The iWBOT is based on per-theater averages reported by Rentrak Theatrical, the complete indieWIRE BOT weekly chart is available at indieWIRE.com.
"Planet B-Boy" director Benson Lee's documentary about b-boy culture and the break dancing Battle of the Year contest in Braunschweig, Germany earned $27,778 from exclusive runs at the Landmark Sunshine in New York and the Landmark Nuart in Los Angeles. Just the second release for fledgling New York-based distributor Elephant Eye Films, "Planet B-Boy" proved to be a successful follow up to their recent debut release "Billy the Kid."
"We were pleasantly surprised at the Friday evening screenings in New York," said Vicky Wight, co-president at Elephant Eye Films. "There were ten-year-olds and grannies who were sixty-five and seventy. There was this huge spectrum and we were delighted. We always thought this film had cross-over potential and that's what's starting to happen with it." Wight, along with Elephant Eye co-president Bridget Stokes, confirmed "Planet B-Boy" holding over in New York and Los Angeles, expanding to San Francisco, San Diego and Washington DC Friday and adding more than twenty-five cities throughout April. "This will be a wider release than "Billy the Kid," Wight said. "We always saw "Planet B-Boy" as the big film at Elephant Eye. We love the film and everyone who sees it loves the film. We knew there would be potential and we are prepared to support it very well if the exhibitors allow us."
"Under the Same Moon" director Patricia Riggen's drama about a female illegal worker trying to reunite with her nine-year-old son, shattered the opening-weekend record for Spanish-language films with a three-day, per-screen average of $10,412 from 266 screens and weekend cume of $2,769,655. "Moon," a co-release of Fox Searchlight and the Weinstein Company, reached $3.5 million in total earnings since its Wednesday opening and debuted in the overall Top Ten box office.
"After we acquired "Moon" along with Fox Searchlight out of the 2007 Sundance Film Festival, we screened it in Manhattan, LA, Texas and Florida to different Hispanic audiences as well as art film audiences and we got great reactions everywhere we went," said Steve Bunnell, chairman of distribution for the Weinstein Company. "Traditionally it had been a challenge if you had a Mexican- oriented film to get it to translate to other Hispanic cultures across the country. But this was a movie that transcended all of those specific ethnic groups and appealed to everyone. We decided to release the movie in 266 theaters where there are large Hispanic populations no matter what background as well as core art house theaters in those markets. We decided to go Easter weekend because that historically is a strong time for Hispanic audiences to go to the movies."
Venues in the suburban Hispanic markets of Los Angeles, Houston and Chicago performed exceptionally strong along with traditional art- house venues like the Arclight in Los Angeles and Landmark's Bethesda Row Cinema in Bethesda Maryland. Bunnell confirmed aggressive expansion pans for "Moon," culminating with approximately 600 runs on April 18. "I think "Moon" is another step in the right direction for Spanish- oriented films," said Bunnell. "The Spanish marketplace is gigantic and this is a special movie that speaks to audiences and is a crowd pleaser. I think it's a stepping off point for future Spanish movies."
"Love Songs," French filmmaker Christophe Honore's Paris-set musical starring Louis Garrel, Ludivine Sagnier and Clotilde Hesme, earned $20,488 for IFC Films and Red Envelope Entertainment; drawing different audiences to New York's Paris Theatre and IFC Center. "There was a very distinct split for "Love Songs" with the traditional art house moviegoer uptown and a younger demographic attending the IFC Center showings," said Mark Boxer, vice president, sales and distribution for IFC Films. "The film is off to a good start and will platform slowly throughout the country."
"Boarding Gate," French filmmaker Olivier Assayas' thriller featuring alt-rocker Kim Gordon as well as Asia Argento and Michael Madsen, earned $11,440 for Magnolia Pictures from its exclusive debut at New York's Cinema Village. "Assayas has a steady and dedicated audience and everyone loves Asia Argento," said Neal Block, director of distribution for Magnolia Pictures. "The strength of his recent films and some great reviews out of New York got us to a very satisfying holiday weekend tally. Despite a marketplace cluttered with options, people found this film. We're taking it out slowly over the next month to the rest of the top 10 markets."
Remaining in the iWBOT top five was "Praying with Lior," director Ilana Trachtman's documentary about Lior, a devout teenage boy with Down's syndrome about to experience his Bar Mitzvah. "Lior" continued to attract hometown fans at Philadelphia's Bala Theatre. "Lior" earned 6,443 in weekend earnings for First Run Features and reached $35,712 in total box office.
Louisville, KY-based production company The Group Entertainment also attracted hometown support for its documentary "FLOW: For Love of Water." Boosted by appearances by "FLOW" director Irena Salina, the documentary about global water shortage earned $3,644 from a special engagement at Louisville's Baxter Avenue Theaters.
Other specialty debuts included Kino International's "Poisoned By Polonium: The Litvinenko File," director Andrei Nekrasov's documentary the cover ups and corruption involving the murder of former Russian spy Alexander Litvinenko. "Poisoned" earned $2,402 in weekend grosses from its exclusive premiere at New York's Quad Cinema. "The Hammer," director Charles Herman-Wurmfeld's boxing comedy for International Film Circuit, reached a $4,857 per-screen average from twenty runs. "Irina Palm" director Sam Garbarski's drama featuring longtime singer Marianne Faithfull as a middle-aged sex club worker trying to earn money for her grandson's surgery, earned $3,474 for Strand Releasing at the Quad.
The strongest holdover continued to be Sony Pictures Classics' "The Counterfeiters," Austrian director Stefan Ruzowitzky's drama about concentration camp inmates who form an uneasy alliance with their Nazi captors printing counterfeit money. The Best Foreign Film Oscar led all specialty holdovers with a per-screen average of $5,387 from weekend earnings of $495,625 from 72 runs.
The biggest weekend benchmark belonged to "4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days," filmmaker Cristian Mungiu's drama about a young woman who undergoes an underground abortion in 1987 Romania. The IFC release reached $1,012,533 in total box office, bold proof that challenging foreign-language fare can find an audience.

Matt Hibbert was 2-for--3 with an RBI and the game-winning run.
March 19, 2011
Long Beach, Calif. - Coming off of a 9-6 loss in the opener, Long Beach State went to extra innings and prevailed on a gamewinner from Ino Patron in the 11th to take a 2-1 victory in game two. Matt Hibbert had two hits in the win, including a double to lead off the bottom of the 11th.
Long Beach State was able to grind out a pair of runs to take an early lead. In the first inning, Brennan Metzger drew a leadoff walked, and after getting pushed around the bases, he came home to score on a wild pitch. Then in the fourth, an overthrow on a rundown by OSU third baseman Carter Bell allowed Jeff Yamaguchi to score from third, putting the Dirtbags on top 2-0.
Oregon State took their first lead in the third inning, putting together three runs on two hits, scoring on an Andrew Susac RBI single as well as a sacrifice fly to move ahead of Long Beach State 3-2.
Long Beach State answered back in the bottom half of the inning, tying the game at 3-3. Juan Avila led off the inning by getting plunked, and after a single and a sacrifice, Avila scored on an RBI single by Ino Patron.
The Dirtbag defense that had helped keep the game close, particularly in a bases-loaded, one out jam in the second inning, fell apart in the seventh as OSU broke the game open. Four errors over four consecutive plate appearances led to five runs, including four unearned runs.
An RBI single by Yamaguchi brought home the second of two runs in the bottom half of the seventh inning to cut the Beaver lead to three runs, but Oregon State added another run in the top of the eighth on a single by Danny Hayes.
Long Beach State threatened with a major rally in the bottom of the ninth. Mike Marjama and Ino Patron hit back-to-back singles to start the inning, and pinch hitter Jonathan Kim followed with a third straight hit to score Marjama and cut the lead to three.
Yamaguchi then stroked a double down the left-field line that was dismissed as foul following a conference of the umpires called by Oregon State coach Pat Casey. With two runs pulled off the board as well as the tying run at second following the erroneous call, Yamaguchi rallied for a single after being called back to the plate to load the bases.
Beaver closer Tony Bryant settled down at that juncture, and was able to strike out the next two batters and induce a pop fly to end the first game.
After lots of offense in the opening game, it was the pitching that took center stage in the nightcap. Shawn Stuart was outstanding for the Dirtbags in his third start of the season, striking out twelve batters over 6.2 innings, allowing four hits but taking a no-decision after leaving with game tied at 1-1.
The Beavers answered with Josh Osich, who was nearly as strong as Stuart. Osich struck out eight over 5.2 innings, with two hits, but gave up the first urn of the game in the bottom of the sixth.
Metzger doubled with two outs in the bottom of the sixth, and Hibbert came through with a big at-bat, following with a base hit to give the Dirtbags a 1-0 lead. The Beavers answered in the top of the seventh, and eventually both teams settled in on their closers, Eddie Magallon and Tony Bryant, who each pitched well to lead the game into extra innings.
In the bottom of the 11th, it was Hibbert again that answered the call, taking Bryant's offering to right field for a standup double to lead off the inning. After being moved over to third with a nice bunt from Duffy, the Beavers elected to walk the bases full, bringing up Patron, who singled to right to finish off the win.
The Dirtbags are on the road for the next two weeks, playing LMU on the road next Tuesday before playing weekend series with Stanford and Pacific.

Giants Reeling From Sloppy Play
Coach Takes Responsibility for Team's Recent Struggles, but Players Say Coughlin's Not at Fault
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. – Giants defensive end Mathias Kiwanuka shook his head, capped his water bottle and laughed. Derisively.
The last time the fans, the media and the football world at large questioned Giants coach Tom Coughlin's ability to reach his players, Mr. Kiwanuka said, "we won the Super Bowl. This is not about our coach."
"This," of course, is the ugly, undisciplined showing the now 1-2 Giants offered in Sunday's 29-10 home loss to Tennessee. Tom Coughlin football teams are supposed to be smart, and this one's supposed to be talented. The 11 penalties, three turnovers and constant shooting-itself-in-the-foot on Sunday looked nothing like a Tom Coughlin team. Or one about to make noise in the NFC.
It's why in Sunday's aftermath, Mr. Coughlin paired talk of the turnovers and penalties to the words "my responsibility" three times in two sentences. It's why, a minute later, he again called the mishaps "my fault" and "my responsibility."
But Sunday, as the coach's self-acknowledged culpability was relayed to defensive end Justin Tuck, the captain didn't even bother with a breath before spitting out, "That's horses—."
And Monday, after the Giants had watched the awful game film, linebacker Keith Bulluck insisted that if this team is to stop its two-game slide Sunday against Chicago, it won't be because of anything Mr. Coughlin does differently this week.
"Coach Coughlin is too old to go out and play for us," he said. "He didn't go out there and lose that game. If you watch the game, we did it to ourselves. If everyone had listened all week, we would've been alright."
Perfect example: Safety Deon Grant said Mr. Coughlin "preached and preached all week" that the Titans would try to push the Giants' buttons. Mr. Bulluck said Mr. Coughlin had specifically and exactingly warned the team Saturday night that Tennessee would try to provoke personal fouls. What do the Giants do? Get whistled for five retaliatory personal fouls, four veterans caught losing their tempers after what they termed dirty play.
So are these Giants listening any differently than Mr. Coughlin's past teams?
"No," Mr. Coughlin said.
Still, the 64-year old coach who's now in his seventh year with the Giants said he can be even more precise with his words this week. He said he needs to be more detailed, may need to play more starters on his atrocious special-teams units and has to work to have the Giants better forge a unified team identity.
He said all the talk that the Giants are talented has yet to be proven. "I think that we have to play as one in order to get to that."
And that's where the players said their responsibility sets in. Mr. Grant called a team meeting Friday, spoke very frankly and was then followed by several other players. It was the first time a player had summoned his teammates this year, and Mr. Kiwanuka said it was important.
"Whenever one of your teammates stands up and is honest, it really sinks in," he said. "Coaches can talk about accountability to each other, but when it's one of your peers, it resonates differently. We're all one team and we all have a responsibility to each other."

This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

Learn more about Trent's introductory ERS course with Professor Stephen Hill and student Catherine Monaghan
Our first year course offerings include two 0.5 credit courses. Here are their descriptions from the Trent University Calendar:
ERSC 1010H: Foundations of Environmental Science and Studies
An interdisciplinary inquiry into the biophysical and social foundations that enable the study of environmental issues, emphasizing the scientific, political, social, economic, and historical dimensions of environmental issues. These dimensions are examined through a series of issues including climate change, air pollution, land and resource use, biodiversity and protected areas, contaminants, and water quality and quantity.
ERSC 1020H: Cases in Environmental Science and Studies
An interdisciplinary exploration of how humans use, affect, and protect the environment. Through in-depth case studies on environmental and/or resource issues, the complex interrelationships between humans and the environment will be explored using scientific, social, political, economic, and numerical approaches.
These courses are designed to introduce students to a range of concepts and knowledge required for upper-year ERS courses, to explore contemporary environmental issues, and to improve environmental literacy. A team of ERS instructors teach these courses, exposing students to a wide range of expertise and fields of study. Students attend lectures, seminars, and complete various assignments and an end of course exam. Many of the assignments and in-course activities involve getting out into the environment to study issues first hand.
These two half credit courses are required for several degrees, including:
the B.A. and B.Sc. Environmental & Resource Studies degrees
the B.E.S.S. (Bachelor of Environmental Science/Studies) degree
the B.A. and B.Sc. Sustainable Agriculture & Food Systems degrees
the B.Sc. Environmental Chemistry degree
the B.A. and B.Sc. Indigenous Environmental Studies degrees
These courses are also recommended for a student majoring in B.Sc. Biology. You will also find these courses are prerequisites for several year 2, 3, and 4 Trent University courses, both within and outside the ERS Program.
For More Information
Course notes, assignments, and other details are available to enrolled students via myTrent >> Blackboard. You may find additional information about ERS Program courses on our Courses page. If you have any other questions, please contact the Environmental & Resource Science/Studies department.

It's 6:20 p.m. and the sun has been down for about 30 minutes. It's dark. I'm riding home along on my usual route, the road is dry and there is now snow, rain, dust or other vehicles. I see a car approaching from the right. Out of habit, I'm looking at the car to see if it stops. It's a T-intersection and the car has a stop sign, also unobscured. Both of its headlights are functioning. The car comes to a halt with its blinker on to turn left. I have no stop sign and continue merrily along my way. I have the right of way.
Lo and behold, the car launches toward me turning left, as I'm in the middle of the intersection. I instinctively unclip my right foot and start swinging it out of the way, as it would appear that I am about to be hit. The car comes to a sharp halt about 12 inches from me, the right headlight lined up to impact just ahead of my bottom bracket.
Time slows down - I can see the driver is a ~35 year old woman with chin-length black hair and brown eyes. She is wearing a dark red wool coat with a white loosely-knit scarf. She is not wearing gloves. The vehicle looks to be a late-90's Toyota [Corolla?] sedan in a red/burgundy colour with a tan interior. I am approximately 7 feet from her, counting the length of the car hood and the twelve inches from my pedal to her bumper. I am shining my helmet-mounted 13W HID headlight [equivalent to ~40 Watts of focused halogen] directly at her. As I coast by the front of her car, she looks to the right, then left, but never in my direction - directly in front of her car. She drives away, and I am left with a combination of fear, anger and righteous indignation for the rest of my ride home.

America's Cup wants 10K free hotel rooms
If San Diego hopes to attract the 2017 America's Cup, local hotels are going to have to unlock thousands of their doors for free.
As part of its offer to potentially come to San Diego in 2017, the America's Cup has requested 10,000 free hotel room nights in the three years leading up to the event, the president of the San Diego Sports Commission said Friday.
Speaking to the Tourism Marketing District's board of directors, Mike McDowell, president of the commission, said the organizers would use the rooms to court corporate sponsors leading up to the international sailing competition. He said the America's Cup would also want an additional 7,500 room nights at half price, meaning a total gift of $2.75 million in room nights.
It is not uncommon for cities like San Diego to offer generous concessions like hotel discounts and rebates for larger, sought-after events and conventions, given the growing competition for what are seen as financially lucrative draws. For example, Comic-Con, which has been courted by other cities, has received six-figure discounts in convention center rent for a number of years.
Are 10,000 free hotel room nights worth it to lure the America's Cup back to San Diego?
Yes 23% (411)
No 77% (1407)
1818 total votes.
While the America's Cup original proposal was not considered, McDowell floated a counter offer for the TMD, which would entail the district offering $2 million over the next three years to buy hotel room nights for use by America's Cup officials, which officials would then reimburse at 50 percent.
"The idea is to get their attention and say we understand your request, we would like to make a counter offer, we'd like to do it in a way that benefits specifically the hotels in the district," he said. "It's not an investment in the infrastructure of the event, it's not an investment in the port doing things, it's not an investment other than an investment in the hotels that generate the TMD to get the attention of the America's Cup."
San Diego and Bermuda are the finalists to host the 2017 sailing event. A decision is expected by late summer. The America's Cup is currently in negotiations with the Port of San Diego, which agreed to a nondisclosure clause, a port spokeswoman said Friday.
The hotelier-run district relies on a hotel room surcharge of 2 percent to finance the marketing of San Diego. The room levy typically generates more than $30 million a year, a large portion of which goes directly to the San Diego Tourism Authority for citywide tourism promotion. In addition, a number of events throughout the year, from Beer Week and the Rock and Roll Marathon to the California State Games, get smaller allocations, with the understanding that such events will help fill hotel rooms.
Tourism board members seemed cool to the America's Cup idea, to say the least. Matt Greene, of Evolution Hospitality, a hotel management firm, said hoteliers in San Francisco described the event held there last year as an epic failure. Bill Evans, of Evans Hotels, said he didn't think it was appropriate for the district to pay for hotel rooms at its member hotels.
"It just stinks," Evans said. "There's just a general feeling that there's self interest at play here, which I don't think serves us very well."
The tourism board cautioned not to bid against themselves. Still, Evans said there is value in bringing to town the America's Cup for the first time since 1992 because it reaches an international audience that could be inspired to travel to San Diego.
"This is all about television," he said. "This is about French tourists, English tourists, the rest of the world cares so much more about sailing than we do."

The Representation of Newfoundland in Nineteenth-Century French Travel Literature
Rompkey, Ronald, Newfoundland and Labrador Studies
THE IDEA OF NEWFOUNDLAND as a place is, for the most part, based upon its representation in British texts associated with the North Atlantic fishery, by means of an imperial discourse expressed by seafarers, army officers, clergymen, physicians, explorers and colonial administrators linked to the British regime. Newfoundland has been formed as a locale by what Edward Said attributes to authority, a phenomenon that establishes canons of taste and value and transmits traditions and perceptions. (1) While Newfoundland is not an imaginary place, our idea of it has been shaped by histories, letters and memoirs, by what Hayden White refers to as "fictions of factual representation," based upon the notion that facts do not speak for themselves but that the historian or chronicler fashions them into a discursive whole. (2)
French writing in the nineteenth century, therefore, widens the frame of reference, for it incorporates a separate discourse and introduces a notion of Newfoundland related not to imperial authority but to the lives of the people. We shall now examine a variety of French visitors associated with the overseas fishery to determine the variety of travel literature and their different perspectives so as to provide an opportunity for further exploration. Thus, our purpose is not to undertake a theoretical analysis of these relatively unknown works but, rather, to bring them to the attention of travel literature scholars and highlight their research potential.
Let us begin in 1713. By signing the Treaty of Utrecht, the French abandoned Acadia, the Hudson Bay territories and the island of Newfoundland but preserved the right to catch and dry fish for six months of the year on the section of the west coast later known as the French Shore. Consequently, in later years, the development and settlement of that part of the island would advance more slowly. Britain accepted the French requirement to build stages and other premises required for fishing but not to fortify the coast or live there beyond the fishing season. Fifty years later, with the Treaty of Paris, the French gave up Canada, the island of Cape Breton, part of the Mississippi Valley and their fishing rights on the coast of Canada to Britain, which subsequently placed the Labrador coast under its Governor in Newfoundland. However, France retained its fishing rights on the French Shore, and St. Pierre and Miquelon were returned to it as a base of operations. The Treaty of Versailles (1783) again reduced the section of Newfoundland coast allotted to the French, removing the section between Cape Bonavista and Cape St. John and substituting part of the west coast down to Cape Ray. Thus, the French Shore would extend from Cape St. John to Cape Ray.
Between the Revolution of 1789 and the First Empire, the French abandoned the French Shore, allowing their customary fishing grounds and harbours to be taken over by local settlers. In 1815, when they again took possession of St. Pierre and Miquelon and their coastal fishery, travel writers resumed the representation of Newfoundland. The first writers arrived in 1816, just after the Congress of Vienna had sorted out the European territories involved in the Napoleonic wars, and the Bourbons, who returned to the throne in 1814, and governed France until 1830. Louis xviii tried to reconcile revolutionary and imperial France and in 1814 founded a constitutional monarchy, getting rid of the tricolore and bringing back the monarchical white flag. But when his brother, the Comte d'Artois, succeeded him as Charles x, the signs of revolt had already begun. During 27, 28 and 29 July 1830, the so-called July Revolution chased Charles x from Paris, after which action he abdicated in favour of the Duc de Bordeaux and took exile in England. In August, Louis-Philippe, head of a junior branch of the Bourbons, took the reins of government and re-established the tricolore.
The July Monarchy lasted eighteen years. …

Stuck like glue
I was on a date wit my BF and some of our friends, and we both had braces. When we were done with dinner and dessert, he went in for a kiss. We kissed and it was a good...until our braces got caught in each others! Our friends thought we were just having a really long kiss, but we just couldn't get our braces undone! We were stuck like that for at least five minutes. All of our friends call us the smoochers now. Geez, I hope our parents never find out!

VentureBeat said that HTML5 mobile games company Moblyng has shut its operations, with founder and CEO Stewart Putney saying that "we did not monetise enough to stay in business."
According to the report, the company had started to generate traction for its games late last year, including launches on the Facebook HTML5 mobile platform. However, by this point it was too late, and the cash was running out.
Investors in Moblyng included Motorola Mobility Ventures and several private equity companies. It held a funding round early in 2011.
Putney told VentureBeat: "I am very proud of the work we did, the HTML5 games are still live and we have a growing base of active users. I remain very confident HTML5 will be a great platform for social games and media, it is simply a question of when. We just unleashed a group of kick-ass HTML5-focused professionals into the market, so my hope is they will help the HTML5 ecosystem develop that much faster."

Comfortable and durable
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Used on a tropical vacation. New, right out of the box, was comfortable to wear. Developed a minor hot spot on one place on the top of my foot from the leather straps, but continuous walking was still possible -- without even a limp. :-)
Arch support is definitely better on these than most flip-flops, but is not as high as the standard Chaco or even compared to a pair of Birkenstocks.
Great looking but narrow and short
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
The Chaco Etesia is a very attractive and supportive flip-flop. They are, however, very narrow and run very small. I would reccomend sizing up. I wear an 8 1/2 to a 9 and the 9 is almost too short to wear. They are stretching as I wear them and expect them to be fine in a couple of weeks.
Super cute!
These sandals have great arch support! They are super comfortable and match with everything. They run way small so make sure you size up!

Taiwanese mobile phone company HTC has said it will appeal against a US ruling that it infringed two Apple patents.
If Friday's ruling by the US International Trade Commission is not overturned, the US may ban imports of some HTC phones.
HTC and Apple are rivals in the smartphone market and analysts said the ruling may have industry-wide implications.

Dubai: Production from new oil well to start next year
An important announcement has been made this Friday by a Dubai official, that the production of oil on a newly discovered oilfield in Persian Gulf, Al Jalila should begin by the end of the year. In this year of global financial crisis from this new maritime oil field the production of crude in Dubai should significantly increase, said Shaikh Ahmad Bin Saeed Al Maktoum, an official from the ruler's office, but still with no specification about the production levels or how big the find is.
Shaikh Ahmad, who is also the chairman of the Gulf's largest Emirates' bank NBD, told reporters that local banks in Dubai have sufficient liquidity and lots of cash to bear the global crisis, but added that some local firms that do business with Europe might still have problems. He believes that the business in Dubai is doing well especially in recent years despite the economic bust in other sectors like construction, tourism and exports.
The UAE controls the world's fifth largest proven oil reserves, estimated at 97.8 billion barrels of crude oil. However, 95 percent of those reserves are controlled by the leading partner in the federation, Abu Dhabi.
The UAE also has 214.4 trillion cubic feet (six trillion cubic meters) of gas reserves, ranking it sixth in the world. The discovery is also important because Dubai's small oil reserves, mostly offshore, are expected to be completely dried out within the next 20 years, notes the UAE government.
The UAE, a member of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, presently pumps about 2.25 million barrels a day. (Source: www.yallafinance.com)

Rosberg took his sixth pole position of the season at the Hungaroring on Saturday, while Mercedes team-mate Hamilton was eliminated in the early part of Q1 when his car caught fire.
While Hamilton charged through the field last weekend at Hockenheim to finish on the podium, the Hungarian circuit is traditionally one of the hardest to overtake on in F1.
"It makes it easier of course because he is my competitor," said Rosberg. "It's a free opportunity tomorrow.
"I need to play it safe and avoid any unnecessary things happening and get as many points as possible.
"Also I would prefer to be out there battling with Lewis, that would give me the maximum adrenaline rush.
"It won't be a gloves-off battle with Lewis but I am still very, very happy."
With both Mercedes drivers suffering reliability issues in recent races, Rosberg admitted that it remains a concern for the team.
"It's massively disappointing when the car breaks down," he said. "I had it two races ago at Silverstone.
"It's tough, not something you can control. It's a pity for the team, not a good thing and we need to keep working on it."
As much of Mercedes' advantage this season has been attributed to the manufacturer's engine, Rosberg said it was significant for the team to still be leading the way on a track that has so few straights.
"I have been surprised that we have been able to be so quick this weekend," he added.
"Our engine is definitely very, very strong and here the engine doesn't come into play so much, so it shows how good our car is.
"With FRIC not being on the car, we are still finding our way, so with lots of long corners here I am pleased with where we are."

There's really never been a dull year at Raven, but this year has been particularly…let's say, interesting.
By now, you probably know that we ended the year with a bang (or a thud, argh! or [expletive], depending on your point of view) with the decision to remove all scraped data from the platform on Jan. 3. We've done our best to explain why we made the decision and answer your questions. And now I want to tell you about Raven's future: where we've been and where we're going.
It's been a busy and productive year at Raven HQ. Some of the product highlights of 2012 include Facebook Insights integration, a new AdWords insights feature, unlimited users for Agency accounts, a new CRM for SEO and social media, a major update to the Link Manager and link reports, a new Chrome Toolbar and a refresh of Task Manager and Messages).
And we have big plans for 2013.
What's coming in January
Let's start with SEO. The rumors of Raven abandoning SEO have been greatly exaggerated.
With the SERP Tracker retiring soon, we will shift our attention to site performance from organic traffic and helping customers show its impact on business results.
SEO performance reports
We are currently working on several SEO reports we plan to make available before the Jan. 2 changeover.
The new reports will focus on site engagement, conversions and landing pages, with a focus on organic-only traffic. They will be easy to implement for all the campaigns you manage in Raven.
We are also working on a Site Referral report that uses data from the Link Manager to highlight traffic sent from your active link records. These reports are specifically designed to show the value your SEO work brings to your client.
Website Auditor
A tool that I have dreamed of having in Raven for quite some time is now becoming a reality. In January we will be launching an automated site crawler named Website Auditor.
Website Auditor will automatically crawl each campaign site and report on problems related to visibility, META data, pages, internal and external links, images and semantic data. It will even create a sitemap.xml file for you!
All of the data from the Website Auditor will be exportable, and you'll be able to run reports from any of the sections.
My favorite part is the Summary page. It includes an overview and score of the site's problems, links that will take you to a detailed view of the problems and a summary PDF report that can be given to clients or prospective clients.
Improved Research Central
Instead of having multiple places to go in the Research section, there will now be one single tool called Research Central.
Research Central enables you to research a domain, URL or keyword using the same input field. In addition to simplified research, all of the results can be exported and/or made into a PDF report.
The new Research Central will be launching in January.
Customizable Quality Analyzer
Research Central has a big surprise that's also an old favorite. The new Quality Analyzer allows you to customize your own scores with your own algorithm.
You choose the metrics that matter most to you, customize their influence and then name it. After you create your custom quality scores, you can see and use the scores to evaluate and report on websites.
Improved social tools
Raven's social tools are getting a major refresh at the beginning of January. We have completely redesigned every tool, including Social Stream, Social Monitor, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and Persona Manager.
The redesign makes Quick Views on the Social Stream easier to create and use, and the new layout for posts, tweets and mentions is easier to digest and manage. The Social Monitor search results were also updated with layout and management improvements.
The social update also includes some new features. The Twitter management tool now supports native Twitter lists and searches (including saved and advanced searches).
What's coming in the next six months
For the first time ever, we're going to tell you what we're building for the next six months.
Is this schedule ambitious? Yes. Is it doable? Absolutely!
Here's what's on deck.
Campaign Alerts
Our current alerts for Link Monitor and Social Monitor were made exclusively for those tools and aren't very customizable. We wanted to create an alert system that would work throughout the platform and could be customized to your needs.
The new Campaign Alerts – planned for Q1 – will support multiple tools on the platform. The alerts will provide an option to receive daily, weekly or monthly summary reports and/or instantaneous trigger alerts sent the moment a custom threshold is met.
New alerts will be created with a simplified Alert Wizard, and notifications can be sent directly to the system and/or via email.
New dashboards
We are completely redoing our dashboard system. It's going to be more flexible, have more KPIs, and it's going to be beautiful! You are going to really like this update. 🙂
Better analytics
The metrics sections will be gaining new social analytics and more goodies from the Google Analytics API. We are also working on making campaign analytics more insightful and actionable.
Reporting refresh
One of our most used and loved tools, the Report Wizard, is getting a major overhaul. Reports will be easier to make and will get a much needed facelift.
Social Activity
The Social Stream lets you see and reply to tweets, posts and monitor results in real-time, and the other social tools help you manage your social accounts. The only thing missing is the ability to tag, track, follow and report on your social activity. The new Social Activity tool will fix that.
Content and author management
Content has become one of the most crucial elements of a successful Internet marketing campaign. We are building a tool to help you create and manage your content, and also monitor the effectiveness of both your content and your authors.
Proposal builder
One of the biggest requests we get from agencies is the desire to create a report that can be used as a proposal for getting new business. We are working on reporting options that will make that possible.
Admin views and reports
Another frequent request we get is the ability to have high-level views of all campaigns and team activity. We are working on a tool that will allow account owners and admins the ability to view and report on all account activity.
We plan to add management and reporting tools for LinkedIn. We will also be adding support for Google+ as soon their write API is made available to us.
Faster development and improved UX
One of the most important things we worked on this year happened behind the scenes. Our development team spent several months rewriting our core system. While I won't go into the gory details, what I can tell you is the purpose of the rewrite.
It was designed to eliminate bugs when new features launch and to also dramatically speed up our development process. The update will enable us to build out new tools (and make significant updates to existing ones) faster than ever before.
And while it's not specific to the next six months – it applies to the platform from here on out – we will focus a lot more of our time on improving the overall user experience.
That includes improving how you navigate and perform key processes and tasks, creating better cross-tool integration and providing more in-app assistance.
There's so much more, but I don't want to give everything away. 2013 is going to be a very exciting year for our customers and the platform.

Global superstar Mariah Carey and her husband, actor/comedian Nick Cannon, exclusively invited ET's Nancy O'Dell to celebrate the renewal of their vows Tuesday on their 5th wedding anniversary at a lavish private ceremony at Disneyland. Mariah and Nick also celebrated the 2nd birthday of their twins, son Moroccan Scott and daughter Monroe, at a prince and princess-themed party, which took place in the park before their ceremony.
The couple shared details of their elaborate ceremony exclusively with ET. Carey slipped into a princess-inspired bridal gown for the event at the well-appointed Dream Suite, tucked away above the Pirates of the Caribbean attraction. From the suite, Mariah and Monroe were picked up in a horse-drawn Crystal Carriage that took them to Main Street, where they were greeted by Nick and Moroccan. They walked down the aisle as a family to Sleeping Beauty Castle, which served as the backdrop for the outdoor ceremony.
The twins sat in the front row to witness the vow renewals which were themed, "Do you believe in fairy tales?" Immediately after the ceremony, there was a burst of fireworks, a surprise for Carey.
