BUKIT JALIL: Malaysia used to be a force to be reckoned with in the men's doubles, and in the past few years the hope of seeing those glory days again became dim.
However, Lim Khim Wah-Goh V Shem's performance at the Maybank Malaysian Open is set to be the catalyst for many more victories in the men's doubles department.
On Sunday, the Malaysian pair downed China's Chai Biao-Hong Wei 21-19, 21-18 to lift their first Malaysian Open title. It ended Malaysia's four-year wait for a Super Series title, which was last won by Koo Kien Keat-Tan Boon Heong in 2010.
National doubles coach Pang Cheh Chang described the victory as a breakthrough and a boost for the team and the Badminton Association of Malaysia (BAM).
KUALA LUMPUR: For a decade, world No. 1 Lee Chong Wei has feasted Malaysian fans with outstanding badminton results.
Fans can now expect a dry season for a long time in the men's singles department if Chong Wei retires because there are neither talents coming through nor an effective programme implemented at the grassroots level.
On Sunday, Chong Wei defeated Tommy Sugiarto of Indonesia in the men's singles final of the Maybank Malaysian Open to win his 10th home title - a feat that no others have achieved on the international circuit.
The two closest consistent winners on the international stage were eight-time All England champion Rudy Hartono and the late Wong Peng Soon, who had also won eight home titles.
CHINA's Li Xuerui made a successful return from injury to win her first Maybank Malaysian Open title at the Putra Stadium in Bukit Jalil.
The world No. 1 proved too strong for compatriot Wang Shixian, winning 21-16, 21-17 in the women's singles final on Sunday.
And Xuerui thanked her lucky stars after pulling off the victory.
"I am delighted to win this title for the first time here in Malaysia. After suffering from injury at the end of last year, I was doubtful about my performance. But luck was on my side today," said Xuerui.
KUALA LUMPUR: Lee Chong Wei took a record 10th Malaysian Open title on Sunday to strengthen his dominance of the badminton world rankings, but said he was unsure whether he would make it to the Olympics.
The Malaysian ace won his match against determined fourth seed Tommy Sugiarto 21-19, 21-9, after beating him in their eight previous meetings.
Underdog Sugiarto put up a fight, leading all the way before Lee edged ahead at 20-19 and sealed the first game. Lee then cruised to the title with a 21-9 scoreline in the second game, earning him US$37,500.
CLASSY: Chong Wei remains untouchable on home ground but the ageing player hints of retirement
LEE Chong Wei proved that he is the king of the (Maybank) Malaysia Open as he accomplished the goal of winning the 10th title and also dropped a strong hint that he is set to retire at the end of this year.
The pressure had weighed on Chong Wei who had a sluggish start against Tommy Sugiarto of Indonesia before winning 21-19, 21-9 in 47 minutes at Putra Stadium yesterday to become the most successful player in the men's singles of the Malaysia Open.
No player has won the same tournament more than eight times. Wong Peng Soon had won the Malaysia Open (then Malaya Open) eight times while Rudy Hartono and Denmark's Morten Frost Hansen had reached similar numbers in the All England and Denmark Open respectively.
BUKIT JALIL: World No. 1 Lee Chong Wei sank to his knees with his head bowed down.
When he got up, tears were rolling down his cheeks. His fanatical fans stood up and gave him a deserving standing ovation.
It was an emotional moment for the 31-year-old Lee Chong Wei when he amazingly landed his 10th, and maybe final, Malaysian Open title at the Putra Stadium in Bukit Jalil on Sunday.
He had to stave off an early assault from a ferocious Tommy Sugiarto of Indonesia before subduing him for a 21-19, 21-9 win in a 47-minute men's singles clash.
Immediately after the triumph, he revealed that he may retire at the end of the year.
BUKIT JALIL: Lim Khim Wah-Goh V Shem finally nailed their first Super Series title.
And what better way to mark their breakthrough than in front of a vociferous home crowd cheering them all the way at the Putra Stadium.
Understandably, the duo just could not hold back their delight as they jumped up in joy after scoring the winning point as a wild celebration erupted inside the stadium.
On Sunday, the duo proved to be the new heroes for the country when they dumped China's Chai Biao and Hong Wei 21-19, 21-18 to claim the title at the Maybank Malaysian Open.
The Malaysian fans joined in the celebration and one can hardly blame them as they have been starved of a men's doubles major title for the last four years.
Koo Kien Keat-Tan Boon Heong were the last pair to win a Super Series title, also at home in 2010.
KUALA LUMPUR: World No. 1 Lee Chong Wei is just one step away from winning his 10th Malaysian Open title but hang on! The man he was least expected to meet – Indonesia's Tommy Sugiarto – could spoil his party.
Chong Wei and Tommy won their semi-final matches in contrasting fashion at the Putra Stadium in Bukit Jalil on Saturday to set up an intriguing men's singles final on Sunday.
Chong Wei stepped onto the court bracing for a gigantic fight from Jan O Jorgensen of Denmark. Instead, his opponent gave up halfway due to a muscle strain on his right thigh.
Chong Wei won 21-13, 3-0 in 27 minutes.
KUALA LUMPUR: Goh V Shem-Lim Khim Wah showed plenty of fire and resilience en route to becoming the first Malaysian men's doubles pair to reach the final of the Maybank Malaysian Open since 2010.
KUALA LUMPUR: Home is where the heart is.
And Denmark's mixed doubles pair of Christina Pedersen and Joachim Fischer Nielsen intend to bank on home advantage to clinch their first World Championships gold medal when the prestigious tournament is held in Copenhagen in August.
They are confident of doing well at home after shocking Olympic gold medallists Zhang Nan and Zhao Yunlei of China 21-10, 21-12 in the semi-finals of the Maybank Malaysian Open at the Putra Stadium in Bukit Jalil yesterday.
KUALA LUMPUR: Top Japanese women's pair Misaki Matsutomo-Ayaka Takahashi have a poor record against opponents from China.
They are also one of the few top pairs in the world who have yet to bag a Super Series title.
The pair, who reached a career high No. 2 in the world last year before slipping down to fourth, however believe that has kept them hungry and motivated at the highest level.
And Matsutomo-Takahashi have certainly shown that in the Maybank Malaysian Open here.
On Friday, they scored a rare win over Olympic champions Tian Qing-Zhao Yunlei of China in the quarter-finals.
Then on Saturday, they outlasted compatriots Reika Kakiiwa-Miyuki Maeda in 86 minutes to reach the Malaysian Open final for the second straight year.
"We're obviously very tired... but we just keep pushing ourselves to do better," said Matsutomo.
KUALA LUMPUR: World number one Lee Chong Wei's march to the Malaysia Open title appeared unstoppable after Chinese archrival Chen Long crashed out in the quarter-finals on Friday.
Malaysia's Lee, who had no trouble brushing past Chen's eighth-seeded compatriot Du Pengyu 21-9, 21-15, said he is feeling confident after his quick 34-minute win.
Asked about world number two Chen, who defeated him at the Korea Open last week, Lee just smiled and said: "I always try my best to win every tournament I enter.
"It is no different here, but as I always say, I will take it one match at a time and now I have to focus on my semifinal opponent."
BUKIT JALIL: Japan's world No. 5 Kenichi Tago gave Lee Chong Wei a massive favour after turning on the style to stun world No. 2 Chen Long in the quarter-finals of the Maybank Malaysian Open.
Chen Long who won the Korean Open last week by beating Chong Wei, was suffering from fever and was clearly not in his best condition as Tago won 21-18, 9-21, 21-10 on Saturday.
The Japanese ace will go on to meet Indonesia's Tommy Sugiarto in the semi-finals. Tommy was in smashing form as he brushed aside India's K. Srikanth 21-10, 21-15.
BUKIT JALIL: The onus was on Goh V Shem-Lim Khim Wah to step up and deliver and the pair responded with gusto as they charged into the semi-finals of the Maybank Malaysian Open.
The sole Malaysian survivors of the men's doubles event, V Shem-Khim Wah were in superb form on Friday as they smashed their way past England's Chris Langridge-Peter Mills 21-16, 21-14 in the quarter-finals.
It was just the kind of performance the pair, back together for a third time following several split-ups, needed.
It bettered their quarter-final appearance at the Korean Open last week and it is their best showing at a Super Series event since making the semi-finals of the Malaysian Open last year.
BUKIT JALIL: South Korean women's singles shuttler Bae Yeon-ju has several career highlights.
Making the semi-finals of last year's world championships and being a part of the of victorious 2010 Uber Cup team are just two of them.
But she's aiming for much more. The 23-year-old has two goals for this year – to break her duck in the Super Series events as well as win the gold in the Asian Games which will be held in Incheon.
The crafty left-hander, who is currently ranked seventh in the world, is well on track to achieving her first target after storming into the semi-finals of the Maybank Malaysian Open on Friday.
Yeon-ju, who hails from Gyeongsangnam, showed her mettle as she doused the challenge of 16-year-old Akane Yamaguchi 21-15, 21-16.
It was an impressive performance as the young Japanese has been on a roll, beating world champion Ratchanok Intanon of Thailand and compatriot Minatsu Mitani in the first and second round respectively.
BUKIT JALIL: It's rare to see a couple travel the world and play good badminton together.
But that is the adventurous journey of mixed doubles shuttler Chris Adcock and his wife Gabrielle.
The couple tied the knot last September and are enjoying the best of both worlds.
Just a month after their marriage, the English pair won their first Super Series title in Hong Kong.
And on Thursday, the Adcocks stormed into the quarter-finals of the Maybank Malaysian Open after beating Germany's Michael Fuchs-Birgit Michels 23-21, 16-21, 21-6 at the Putra Stadium in Bukit Jalil.
BUKIT JALIL: The second round of the Maybank Malaysian Open got off to an unexpected start with two of the top four seeds in the men's doubles crashing out.
Taiwan's Lee Sheng-mu-Tsai Chia-hsin were on fire as they doused the challenge of world champions and top seeds Mohd Ahsan-Hendra Setiawan on Thursday.
The world No. 9 got their act right for a 21-10, 19-21, 21-13 win. Sheng-mu-Chia-hsin will go on to face sixth seeds Hiroyuki Endo-Kenichi Hayakawa of Japan, who defeated Dutch duo Koen Ridder-Ruud Bosch, in the quarter-finals.
Saina fought hard before going down 21-16 10-21 19-21 to Yao Xue of China, while Sindhu lost to sixth seed Yeon Ju Bae of Korea 16-21 19-2.
Kuala Lumpur: India's campaign in the women's singles came to an end at the USD 500,000 Malaysia Super Series Premier badminton event after both Saina Nehwal and PV Sindhu lost their respective second round matches, here on Thursday.
Olympic bronze medalist Saina fought hard before going down 21-16 10-21 19-21 to lower-ranked Yao Xue of China in a 56-minute contest, while Sindhu lost to sixth seed Yeon Ju Bae of Korea 16-21 19-21 in 45 minutes at the Putra Stadium.
BUKIT JALIL: Doubles shuttlers Lim Khim Wah-Goh V Shem saved Malaysia from their worst-ever showing on home soil in the men's doubles when they became the only pair to win the opening match.
On Wednesday, Khim Wah-V Shem gained sweet revenge when they dumped second seeds and reigning Korean Open champions Mathias Boe-Carsten Mogensen of Denmark 24-22, 17-21, 21-18.
Just last week, the Malaysians had gone down with a whimper to the Danes in the quarter-finals of the season-opener in cold Seoul.
But on Wednesday, they were blowing hot, showing great fighting spirit to outplay the Danes and prevent Malaysia from suffering a complete whitewash.
BUKIT JALIL: As a young boy, Lee Yong-dae of South Korea picked up badminton in a bid to lose weight.
Not only did he go on to shed some kilos, but the 25-year-old also grew to become one of the heavyweights in the doubles event.
In fact, he is one of the most admired players in the Maybank Malaysian Open at the Putra Stadium in Bukit Jalil.
And the Olympic Games gold medallist says he owes it all to his mother.
"I was quite chubby when I was eight years old and my mother signed me up with a badminton club so that I could lose weight," he said with a smile.
"Within a year, I lost some pounds... I can't remember how many kilos but I decided to stop as my mission was accomplished.

"I'm from Mexico. I came here at night by crossing the border where nobody saw me. So, I now live among you. You wonder why I came here and what I want? I'll tell you!
"I want a home! And, I don't want a dump. I want a good home so that I'll have room for my family. I have a wife and 6 kids back home. I want you to finance their trip to America. I want welfare. I want food stamps. I want unemployment. I want all of the wonderful benefits that you bestow on those of us who come to America the way I did.
"I don't like being called names! I don't like terms like "Wetback," "Illegal Alien," Undocumented Immigrant," or any other insulting terms. I do not have to be treated that way. I only want you to call me one thing: a Mexican! Because that's what I am and always will be! You couldn't pay me enough to become an American!

ZF-10041: Incorrect digit grouping for Japanese numbers
Zend_Locale_Format::toNumber incorrectly groups the digits of Japanese numbers:
$currency = Zend_Locale_Format::toNumber(12345.67, array( 'precision' => 2, 'locale' => 'ja_JP' // or equally just 'ja' ) ); print $currency // prints 12,345.67 instead of 1,2345.67
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_numerals for confirmation of the requirement.
According to Unicode the numbering for japanese numbers is "#,##0.###". Decimal is "." and grouping is ",".
This means that a number like "1234567.89" has to be displayed like
If this is not correct, then please add an issue to Unicode/CLDR (http://www.unicode.com/cldr) as Zend Framework as also several other frameworks like Java are using CLDR as source for I18n handling.

Heading toward the determination of the winner of the 2013-14 Learfield Sports Directors' Cup, gostanford.com will provide a progression of each of Stanford's 19 consecutive victories. Here is the 12th, in 2005-06:
Directors' Cup No. 12 (2005-06) | 2005-06 Season In Photos
MANY STANFORD VARSITY programs had their roots as club teams and grew from there. Women's lacrosse is one such success story.
Its beginnings go back to the 1970s, and Stanford adopted lacrosse as a varsity sport in 1995. Immediately, Stanford established itself as a regional power. From 1998-2011, the Cardinal won either conference regular season or tournament titles.
However, throughout that time, Stanford had to battle on another front, for the respect of East Coast coaches and the NCAA selection committee. Because there was no automatic berth for the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation or its predecessors, Stanford was left out of the NCAA tournament every year – until 2006.
With the goalkeeping of Laura Shane and the scoring of Megan Burker – Stanford's first All-Americans – the Cardinal earned its first NCAA tournament berth. The Cardinal lost to powerhouse Northwestern, 17-9, in the first round, but it was a watershed season nonetheless and the program has continued to grow in stature ever since.
Stanford continued its record winning streak in the Directors' Cup competition. The Cardinal won its 12th consecutive award, presented annually to the best overall collegiate athletics programs in the country.
The Cardinal completed the year with 1,197.375 points, surpassing runner-up UCLA by 126. Stanford won national championships in women's cross country and women's tennis and was runner-up in women's indoor track and field, and men's water polo. The Cardinal placed 11 additional teams in the top 10.
Stanford teams placing in the top 10 were women's water polo (3rd), men's gymnastics (3rd), men's swimming (3rd), women's basketball (5th), women's swimming (5th), men's tennis (5th), men's cross country (6th), fencing (men's) (7th), baseball (9th), women's lacrosse (9th), and softball (9th). The Cardinal recorded points in nine men's sports and the maximum of 10 women's sports. However, Stanford did not receive points for women's soccer, lacrosse or rowing as the Cardinal already scored in the Directors' Cup maximum of 10 women's sports. Stanford averaged 60 points per sport.
For Stanford women's basketball, the era of stars had returned. The Jennifer Azzi years brought two NCAA championships to Stanford in the early 1990s. However, it wasn't until Nicole Powell's arrival in 2000 that the superstar line began to grow, leading to Candice Wiggins, Jayne Appel, and Nnemkadi and Chiney Ogwumike.
Wiggins was a sophomore in 2005-06 when she averaged a collegiate high 21.8 points and made 90 three-pointers. She earned Pac-10 Player of the Year honors for the second consecutive year, and led Stanford to a 26-8 record and back into the Elite Eight.
Wiggins was four when her father, former major leaguer Alan, died of AIDS. At that time, that was a subject that was not discussed. But as an adult, Wiggins helped lift the veil off the disease through a partnership with Until There's A Cure, a non-profit organization that raises awareness and funds to combat AIDS.
Wiggins, an impactful individual on and off the court, would go on to set Stanford and Pac-10 career records with 2,629 points.
Stanford tennis player Alice Barnes was named winner of the Stanford Athletic Board's Al Masters Award, honoring the Stanford athlete attaining the highest standards of athletic performance, leadership and academic achievement.
Barnes, a native of England, was a four-time All-American and helped Stanford to its third consecutive NCAA team title. Barnes twice was named to the ITA National Doubles Team of the Year award, this time with Anne Yelsey. The team went 42-4 during the season.
In Stanford's 4-1 championship victory at home over Miami, Barnes and Yelsey rallied from a 7-3 deficit to win 9-7 to clinch the doubles point for the Cardinal.
* * *
More highlights from 2005-06:
• Sophomore Arianna Lambie won the Pac-10 and NCAA West Region titles before leading the Cardinal women's cross country team to its third NCAA team title and first under new coach Peter Tegen.
• The Cardinal synchronized swimming team won its fourth U.S. Collegiate title, including its second in a row, under coach Heather Olson.
• Sara Lowe won the U.S. Collegiate solo competition and teamed with Courtenay Stewart to win the duet title. Stewart also won the figures for the Cardinal synchro team.
• The Stanford men's gymnastics team got NCAA titles from David Sender in the vault and Dylan Carney on the horizontal bar.
• The Cardinal Invitational was renamed the Payton Jordan Invitational to honor the longtime Stanford track and field coach. The meet has become one of the biggest distance-running showcase events in the country.
The Final Count:
1) Stanford, 1,197.375
3) Texas, 966
4) North Carolina, 952.75
5) Florida, 913
Stanford's Top Scoring Teams:
1 (tie), Women's cross country, women's tennis, each 100 points; 3, women's track and field, 90; 4, men's swimming and diving, 85; 5, women's swimming and diving, 75.

Here are answers to some common questions about Storage Spaces.
Storage Spaces lets you group drives together in a storage pool. Then you can use pool capacity to create storage spaces.
Storage spaces are virtual drives that appear in File Explorer. You can use them like any other drive, so it's easy to work with files on them.
You can create large storage spaces and add more drives to them when you run low on pool capacity.
If you have two or more drives in the storage pool, you can create storage spaces that won't be affected by a drive failure—or even the failure of two drives, if you create a three-way mirror storage space.
All you need is one or more extra drives in addition to the drive on which Windows is installed. These drives can be internal or external hard drives, or solid state drives.
You can use a variety of types of drives with Storage Spaces, including USB, SATA, and SAS drives.
Add or connect all the drives that you want to group together with Storage Spaces.
Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, and then tap Search.(If you're using a mouse, point to the lower-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer up, and then click Search.)
Enter Storage Spaces in the search box.
Choose Storage Spaces in the search results.
Tap or click Create a new pool and storage space.
Select the drives you want to add to the new storage space, and then tap or click Create pool.
Give the drive a name and letter, and then choose a layout. Two-way mirror, Three-way mirror, and Parity can help protect the files in the storage space from drive failure.
Enter the maximum size the storage space can reach, and then tap or click Create storage space.
There are three different kinds of Storage Spaces with unique characteristics that make them better or worse for storing different kinds of files.
Simple spaces are designed for increased performance, but don't protect your files from drive failure by keeping multiple copies. They're best for temporary data (such as video rendering files), image editor scratch files, and intermediary compiler object files. Simple spaces require at least one drive.
Mirror spaces are designed for increased performance and protect your files from drive failure by keeping more than one copy. Two-way mirror spaces make two copies of your files and can tolerate one drive failure, while three-way mirror spaces can tolerate two drive failures. They're good for storing a broad range of data, from a general-purpose file share to a VHD library. When a mirror space is formatted with the Resilient File System (ReFS), Windows will automatically maintain your data integrity, which makes your files even more resilient to drive failure. Two-way mirror spaces require at least two drives, and three-way mirror spaces require at least five.
Parity spaces are designed for storage efficiency and protect your files from drive failure by keeping more than one copy. Parity spaces are best for archival data and streaming media, like music and videos. This storage layout requires at least three drives to protect you from a single drive failure and at least seven drives to protect you from two drive failures.

Comments about Fight Science DVD:
I teach developmental reading at the post-secondary level. I am always interested in videos/readings that address science as my students need to improve their reading skills in that area. This series, had it included all of the episodes, would have been perfect for classroom use. For visual/auditory learners, this is a high interest topic. Pairing it with an appropriate reading would have truly engaged a high number of learners. Unfortunately, the best episode, Stealth Fighting, is not on the DVD. Further, despite a relentless search on my part, which included contacting several NatGeo staff members, I couldn't get an answer as to why this episode was missing. I do see, in another comment, that NatGeo staff apparently couldn't get the producers to include the ep to which I am referring. I think it's a shame that a company that does such good work is not able to make this available. While I did purchase the DVD and can use one of the episodes w/a paired reading, it won't be as effective as the Stealth Fighting ep, which includes parakour and ninja clips. To be frank, my experience trying to access the missing episode(s), for which I would gladly shell out more money, has turned me off of NatGeo a bit. True, the ep is available on - line, but that limits me somewhat and is not ideal.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Where is original episode?
By donofoblivion

About Me Avid Moviegoer
Useful/good product; but misleadingly presented and packaged. Actually bought dvd quite some time ago, and just opened it for family fun and viewing. Agree with comments that desireable episodes left out. Unfortunate. Missing show(s) were excellent. Disappointed.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

By Jen
from California
I bought this DVD because of the episodes on Stealth and the Chinese Animal Style Arts. This DVD has neither. If the producers of Fight Science only wanted to release 3 episodes, then the entire DVD should not have been released until something better was negotiated. How does a show that is a series on a network release a DVD that only has 1/3 of the episodes?! Also, this DVD can be bought from [...] at nearly $10 less. However, I am going to return it because the episodes that compelled me to watch this show aren't even included which lowers teh value of owning it considerably. I am not sure why they allow parts of those episodes to be shown on this site but not on DVD for consumers to purchase. I was going to buy it for 3 other people but I cannot do so knowing this. Highly disappointed.

Where are the rest of the episodes? Some of the most interesting material is missing. Why would NatGeo release an incomplete collection?
From National Geographic:Thank you for your feedback. Due to agreements with the producers of Fight Science, these are the only three episodes that we were able to release on DVD. We apologize that our description did not reflect this and are updating it now.

My Maritial Arts Son will love it.
By gladys
from East Coast between Florida and New York.
Seeing the series on TV, I had to gift it to my son, a Martial Arts student for over 15 years, with his own Shaolin(?) Temple and training his own 8 year old son since he was 3. In my humble opinion, this is an important and useful instrument to better understand thebody and the Art of Fight. Thank you.

Best NCAA Tournament finishes in March Madness
Almost 5 million people submitted NCAA Tournament brackets to ESPN. Just 56 are viable — all thanks (in large part) to No. 3 Georgetown's stunning 97-83 loss to No. 14 Ohio.
ESPN morning radio host Mike Greenberg reported in the entire 2009 tournament, there were just two overtimes and two games decided by one point. On Thursday alone, there were three overtimes and three games decided by one-point.
That is just about all the facts you need to know to explain Day 1 of an unpredictable dance. After a pretty sorry tournament last season, Thursday reignited the great history of dramatic finishes and buzzer beaters thanks to Murray State's 66-65 buzzer beater to upset No. 4 seed Vanderbilt.
It looks like ESPN is going to have to update this 2006 video montage.

Rated 3.7 out of 5 by 10 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by CSFalk Like an after-dinner mint This coffee is good hot or cold. It has a minty taste that last all day. January 24, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by ROMO15 Very tasty! I was a little skeptical on buying coffee after the holidays thinking I would not be in the mood for it. Then I received it in the mail and was so happy with the outcome of the product. It is very tasty and light. It is not too heavy on the chocolate or peppermint flavor. I would definitely recommend this product. January 23, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by ML1574 M1574 Absolutely Wonderful!!! Taste like Girls Scout Thin Mints. December 31, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by Meme I love the smoothness I tried this coffee last year and thought it was so good, I gave some to a friend who also loves it. It is true that there is not much of a peppermint flavor, as a matter of fact, the flavoring is very mild and seems to enhance the coffee and not over-ride it like many of the flavored coffees do. December 3, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by LadyMorninstar Chocolate peppermint coffee YUM! Could have a bit more peppermint in the coffee, but otherwise it is perfect. A great way to start your morning or to end your day. October 16, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Mmhm Good, but... The ground, chocolate peppermint coffee was delicious, however it was not what I was expecting. I ordered it for my wife who enjoys (pepper)mint flavor, but there is NO mintyness to this once it was brewed. There were subtle notes of chocolate. December 28, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 by Joan61 Peppermint weak Tasty but prefer less chocolate flavor and more peppermint flavor needed. December 26, 2013
Rated 2 out of 5 by Jayden Tastes good BUT.... I think I was expecting this to taste like chocolate peppermint candy, but what I got was...a regular coffee taste. I could smell the mint and maybe the chocolate but once brewed, I had to go read the label again to make sure it was "mint AND chocolate" Big let down, but a good cup of coffee nonetheless.

Despite the adverse situation, more than 200 intrepid skiers headed out on the course. They were rewarded with much better conditions in about 15 minutes, after the front had passed. At that point, waxing became the big issue, and those who predicted the new snow were rewarded with much faster skis.
Saturday's women's overall winner was Stacy McCooey, who turned in her second series victory of the winter, with Park City's Roxanne Toly placing third. On the men's side, Thomas Seidel also had his second win this year, by a narrow margin over Parkite Jason Travis. Seidel's time for the 19-kilometer course, three laps around the Farm loop, was a commendable one hour flat.
This was the final race of the Smartwool series, so season leaders were also determined last weekend. Points are accumulated over the winter, and winners are selected based on their top four scores out of the five races. Toly and Seidel came out on top this year.
Several age-group titles came down to the last race. White Pine waxing guru Kurt Reynolds, for example, was down six points and needed a victory in the men's 50-54 class to wrap up a season win. He maintained a blistering pace to beat all rivals by more than a minute.
Julia Lazzaroni and Lindsey Adams placed in the top four on Saturday to pull them up to first and second overall among the 14-15s. Sara Morgan turned in the fastest time of the day among all of the 10-11s of both genders to maintain her season lead over Heber rival Lina Farra.
The most exciting finish of the day involved KPCW news reporter Lynn Ware-Peek, who needed a good finish to take the season title from leader Tanya Swenson in the women's 45-49 class. On Saturday, Lynn led Salt Lake rival Bente Rokenes for most of the race, but lost in a sprint to the line by mere inches.
Another narrow loss for a Parkite was Leah Lange's close finish with Junior National team mate Katy Bonacci in the girls' 14-15 class. Both of these girls will be headed for Fairbanks, Alaska, next week to represent the Intermountain Division of the U.S. Ski Association in the National Championships. Other Parkites on that team are Kyle Beling, Brenna Egan, Alex Jackson, Julia Lazzaroni and Sophie McDonald.
Park City skiers filled the podium in three age groups on Saturday. Alex Jackson, Noah Putt, and Jesse Reid topped the boys' 14-15s. Savanna Fassio, Liza Greene, and Grace Richards were the fastest 12-13-year-old girls. The men's 50-55 division was dominated by Paul Smith, Bruce Allen, and Jordan Swenson.
Several season titles had already been decided. Deborah Wagner won all four of the previous WCS events in the women's 60-64 class, but added a fifth to wrap up the winter in style. Marit Glenne took her fourth to end the season with a perfect score in the women's 65-60 class. Other Parkites finishing with three victories were John Fassio, Sydney Palmer-Leger, Aiden Rasmussen, Lora Smith, Tanya Swenson, Kirsten Whetstone, and Sabine Wilson.
The Smartwool Wasatch Citizens Series is done for another winter, but the skiing at White Pine is as good as it's been all winter, both on the golf course and at the farm.
Local nordic racers are training for the Round Valley Roundup a week from Saturday. This hasn't been the greatest winter for snow conditions out there, but if the weather cooperates, it should be another memorable race. To sign up, go to the Mountain Trails website.

Today, pro-life people around the world are invited to begin a special Novena to the Holy Spirit, Lord and Giver of Life. At www.priestsforlife.org you will be able to sign up for this novena and download the prayer.
The period of time between the Ascension and Pentecost was the original novena, when the disciples prayed at Jesus' instruction that they would be clothed with power from on high.
That Holy Spirit, the Advocate, made them bold advocates for the Gospel. The same boldness is needed by us as we announce the sanctity of life and denounce the many attacks on life, beginning with abortion and euthanasia.
Let us pray in this novena that he will make us bold advocates for the unborn and all the vulnerable.

The IDAHO WEED AWARENESS CAMPAIGN was created to raise public awareness helping the people of Idaho understand the economic and environmental impacts of invasive weeds. Our main goal is to encourage Idahoans to help develop and participate in invasive weed eradication and management programs, and to assist in preventing the spread of invasive weeds.
The IWAC created this web site to distribute information to the public, providing attractive and educational interactive multimedia content as well as networking and discussion opportunities. A highlight of this website is our "Virtual Field Guide" where you can visit 360 degree panorama images, video and multimedia, and a "Reference Library" providing information about each of the 68 Noxious Weeds, including tips for identifying and eradication.
For an update on the ongoing issue of invasive species in Idaho, read the press release from Idaho Noxious and Invasive Weed Awareness Week.
Please enjoy your visit, and help us pull together against invasive weeds.

ZF-7501: Path with // in the end of autoload method of Zend_Loader_Autoloader_Resource.
I'm just learning Zend for 2 days but i think i found bug in the end of autoload method of Zend_Loader_Autoloader_Resource.
Now it looks like this:
$final = substr($class, strlen($lastMatch));
$path = $this->_components[$lastMatch];
return include $path . '/' . str_replace('_', '/', $final) . '.php';
I think line with return should be like this:
return include $path . str_replace('_', '/', $final).'.php';
original line make '//' in path and file isn't include.
Check me please if i'm right.
Thanks Andy
Patch to match remove double // from generated path
Fixed in r18169 - component path was not being trimmed. Let me know if this does not, by chance, resolve your issue - the patch was a bit ambiguous compared to the issue description and comment.

Ranked among the nation's most integrated healthcare systems, Community Health Network is Central Indiana's leader in providing convenient access to exceptional healthcare services, where and when patients need them—in hospitals, health pavilions, workplaces, schools and homes.
Surgery, as defined by the American Medical Association, is the treatment of disease, injury, or other disorders by direct physical intervention, usually with instruments.
Surgery involves the cutting into the skin or other organ to accomplish restoring the body to a healthful state.
This may include further exploration of the condition for the purpose of diagnosis, taking a biopsy of a suspicious lump, or removing diseased tissues or organs.
In addition, it surgery may be conducted to remove an obstruction, reposition structures to their normal position, redirect channels, or transplant tissue or whole organs.
Surgery may be needed to implant mechanical or electronic devices; improve physical appearance; repair an area that has been injured or affected by trauma, overuse, or disease; restore proper function; or relieve pain.
Many children face surgery every year. Some operations are elective procedures, others are required procedures and, in some cases, surgery is an emergency response to an urgent medical condition.
The entire family should expect to go through four phases. First, surgical diagnosis is made after medical tests and evaluations reveal a condition requiring surgery. Second, the preoperative management phase begins from the time surgery is decided to the point when the patient is brought to the operating room.
Third, the intraoperative care phase lasts from the time the patient enters the operating room to when the patient goes to the recovery room. And fourth, the postoperative management phase lasts from entry to the recovery room until follow-up clinical evaluation.

It seems as if the Blind Boys of Alabama have always existed. Of course, given my tender age and the fact the Blind Boys began performing in 1939 when they met at the Alabama Institute for the Negro Blind, my observation is right on the money.
Growing up, I was fascinated by the Blind Boys of Alabama, especially given our origins in the same state, my hometown being Mobile. Being the member of an all-white Methodist church that never sang more than two songs on any Sunday and never got more rousing than "Onward, Christian Soldiers," I was taken back when I first heard the stirring screams, hoops, hollers and calls coming from this amazing singing group. It was unlike anything I had ever heard before. The Blind Boys' music was mesmerizing then, and it still is today. Songs such as 1948's "I Can See Everybody's Mother But Mine" continue to resonate among gospel, R&B and rock and roll artists.
More than 70 years after they first formed, the Blind Boys of Alabama are still at it, having recently released Take The High Road, which pulls together a talented group of players that once again highlights the Blind Boys' versatility and universality. The album features performances with Vince Gill, Willie Nelson, the Oak Ridge Boys, Hank Williams Jr. and Lee Ann Womack, and its 13 tracks present an abundance of musical treasures. The all-star roster of guest musicians is fitting for a group who has long captivated audiences, including two presidents, and been honored with Grammy and National Endowment for the Arts Lifetime Achievement Awards.
We're so excited that the group will be with us this week to participate in our celebration of the life, legacy and music of Aretha Franklin, as we pay tribute to her during the 16th annual American Music Masters. We're also so privileged that Jimmy Carter, one of the Blind Boys of Alabama's founding members, is able to join us for not only an interview, but also what promises to be an incredible performance.
I urge everyone in earshot of me to come down to the Museum for the Blind Boys of Alabama's performance on Tuesday, November 1 at 7 pm. It's a musical experience like few others. For more information, click here.

Bills are bills and must be paid. But something feels morally wrong about the case of former Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive lineman Chidi Ahanotu.
According to a report from Tampa Tribune reporter Anwar Richardson, Tampa Circuit Judge Elizabeth Rice ordered Chidi Ahanotu to surrender his 2002 St. Louis Rams conference championship ring to help pay more than $130,000 in legal fees towards his ex-wife's lawyers.
Ahanotu competed for the Bucs from 1993-2000 and 2004.
This court system is a farce," Ahanotu told the Tribune. "This court wants a man to hand over his once-in-a-lifetime accomplishment to pay some damn attorney's fees? I could see if it was going to pay something for my children or my ex-wife."
While the judge had the legal right to order Ahanotu to surrender his ring, this feels wrong on so many levels.

More: How was the Nautica New York City Triathlon you participated in on August 7, 2011?
Megyn Price: It was insane!
More: How are you feeling?
MP: I feel surprisingly fine. I also feel like a total champion because I did it even though I was terrified. There was just something about the rainy weather; I was on a rented bicycle and the Nautica New York City Triathlon was a much longer-distance race than I've ever participated in before. I got really scared the night before, but I did it anyway. It was a really good lesson for myself: When you're scared, just do it anyway!
More: What was the race like?
MP: First, you swim a mile in the Hudson [River], then you bike 25 miles on the West Side Highway. After that, you run down 72nd Street and run six miles in Central Park.
More: How long did it take you to finish the entire triathlon?
MP: It took me 3 hours and 32 minutes. I finished in the middle pack of my age group. My husband finished in just under three hours.
More: Did you and your husband race most of the triathlon together?
MP: No, none of it. The men start before the women. So we gave each other a kiss, said good luck and each had our own races.
More: What motivated you to do the Nautica New York City Triathlon in particular?
MP: I used to live and work in New York; I did "Lateline" there with Al Franken a long time ago. New York City is my favorite city on the planet, and I thought this race was really impossible for me to do. So I found the thing I thought I couldn't do and I did it.
More: What made this triathlon seem impossible compared with the others?
MP: To swim in the Hudson River for one thing! Also, the distance is what they do in the Olympics, so it seemed too big and difficult. And I don't ride in the rain. We don't have rain here in Los Angeles. So the race really seemed out of my reach. But I guess that's my new mantra as I get older: Find the things that are too big, and then go do them. I feel like when you have a little girl, that's your responsibility. You have to teach her things like that. You've got to go find what scares you, and do it anyway.
More: How old is your daughter now?
MP: She's four, and she's so proud. She wore my medal around for days after the race.
More: How long did you train for the race?
MP: I probably trained two hours a day for three months. I've done triathlons for the past two seasons, so I've been training. But intensely training for New York? Three months.
More: What was your routine like?
MP: It looks like a lot of swimming, biking and running [laughs]. Then I put yoga in with it. Normally I'm not a yoga girl, but there's this yoga that just started called CorePower Yoga. It's a little bit more of a workout yoga, so it interests me more. Yoga seems very quiet and stretchy to me, and this one involves stretching and working out at the same time.
More: Do you practice all three triathlon activities at once?
MP: No, you don't. It's strange, but you don't. You practice running and biking in succession. These are called brick workouts. After you bike for 25 miles, your legs feel like jelly. To run right after that is pretty tough. Once you get going, it's OK.
More: Was it easy finding the time to train?
MP: No! I had to get up at five in the morning because have a four-year-old. I have to be up before her and then take her to preschool. Everything for a mama has to happen before everyone else wakes up. That's just a rule.

PCC in the News
News: Softball's Ficocelli Heading To William Penn U.
Pasadena City College softball sophomore Natalie Ficocelli, the only player to play for head coach Brittany Williams' first two Lancers teams, has earned a scholarship to play/attend William Penn University (West Des Moines, Iowa). Ficocelli was the Lancers' starting first baseman this past season and an All-South Coast Conference honorable mention.
Ficocelli joins the Lady Statesmen, a NAIA program, and is reunited with former Lancer teammate Brittany Skoien, who redshirted this past year at WPU. Skoien was an All-SCC First Team centerfielder for PCC in 2012.
Ficocelli, a two-year letterman at PCC, and Skoien will try to help WPU rebound from a fourth place finish this past season in the Midwest Collegiate Conference despite a 32-21 overall record.
As a sophomore this year, Ficocelli came on strong in the last month of the season and finished with a .328 batting average, 1 home run, six doubles and 15 RBI. She led the team in fielding percentage with a .986 mark, just two errors in 144 chances. The Burbank Providence High grad is both a left-handed batter and fielder.
"Natalie is a smart player who was easy for me to coach because she listened to our guidance and worked hard to improve her overall game," Williams said. "What will be great for her is to get to play with a familiar face in Brittany Skoien at the next level. It will help her adjust to life outside of California. I expect both to be big contributors at William Penn."
Release Date: 06/10/2013
SERVICE ALERT: PCC will be launching an updated version of this website on Tuesday, June 28, and Wednesday, June 29. During that time, you may notice some changes to content, layout, and functionality of the site, and there may be interruptions in service. We appreciate your patience during the launch, and apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

Interning at Windy Films
Posted on: August 26th, 2015 | 0 Comments
This summer I've been interning with Windy Films, a small Boston-based documentary film studio started by former Curb Scholar, Harvey, and his long-time friends Tripp and Will. From feature-length documentaries to promotional pieces for social impact organizations, they aim to "tell stories that matter."
In the mornings, I fittingly take the train to the Maverick station, heading towards Wonderland, and a slew of possibilities. That's about where the day-to-day regularity ends; I never quite know what I'll find when I walk into Studio 16. Curious visitors (both human and animal) and diverse clients, as well as new problems to solve and fresh visions to fulfill make the cavernous studio a true place of possibility, yet the discipline of deadlines and bottom lines keep it serious enough for the creative energy to have direction.

Guest post from Lily Hansen author of Word of Mouth: Nashville Conversations, and resident of Ryman Lofts, Nashville's first affordable apartment residence for artists. Lily coordinated our visit to Ryman Lofts (you'll hear more about that in our next post!), and her book Word of Mouth will serve as the inspiration for many of our visits this year.

Today I signed my third lease at the Ryman Artist Lofts in downtown Nashville. If you haven't heard, Music City is beyond boom status. We are competing with Chicago, my hometown, for who can jack up their rent prices faster. It seems as though a new structure emerges from the ground every other day.
Just as I was initialing my paperwork this morning, my property manager's telephone rang. Debbie is the gatekeeper who breaks people's hearts on an hourly basis by telling them that we are on a five-year wait list. Now I know why the masses are clamoring to get into our 60-unit community.
Curb Scholars Opening Retreat: Tuesday and Wednesday
Posted on: August 24th, 2015 | 0 Comments
It's that time of year again, when students return to campus, and we all have to scramble to make sure we're ready for them. At the Curb Center, this annual return becomes a swirl of events, as we try to coordinate the opening of the academic year (which means new teaching adventures for me and Director Jay Clayton, along with continuing research) with
➢ the Curb Scholars Opening Retreat,
➢ the kickoff of our second year of the Public Scholars program,
➢ a new art exhibit around the theme of gentrification both here in the Edgehill neighborhood and in other cities around the country,
➢ getting started on the REAL (Race Equity in Arts Leadership) Project we're working on with the Metro Arts Commission,
➢ AND planning for all the other stuff we do every year with our many campus partners…

Building Bridges
Shortly after arriving in Hong Kong for my internship at Ove Arup & Partners, I pulled out my notebook and started a list. Guidelines to make the most of the summer
Act as if this is permanent
If you're considering something but are scared or tired do it anyway.
Don't worry about doing the touristy things, just live life as if this is home and it will be.
Those first few days had been a slow push through culture shock I both expected and didn't. I was fighting a sense of obligation to do the sort of things an Adventurous Person does when they travel the world, though I wasn't sure what those things were. I was simultaneously overcome by an opposing urge to do Nothing At All.

Tell Me a Story: Multimedia Expression Night

Tell me a story.
In this century, and moment, of mania,
Tell me a story.
Make it a story of great distances, and starlight.
The name of the story will be Time,
But you must not pronounce its name.
Tell me a story of deep delight.
from Robert Penn Warren's "Tell Me a Story"

Curb Scholar Blog: Creativity through World Cultures and Languages

This blog post was written by Disa Yu.
Hello and welcome to our Curb Scholars blog! My name is Disa and I'm a junior from Potomac, Maryland. I'm majoring in mathematics, and minoring in scientific computing and Chinese language and culture. I enjoy running, reading the news, and travelling and learning about world cultures and world events. In the near future, I hope to improve my cooking abilities by practicing cooking vegetarian and pescatarian entrees and fruit-based desserts; grow a garden with vegetables and herbs and fruit (my ideal-model-garden is the Washington Youth Garden in the National Arboretum in DC, where I worked a few summers ago); learn the Indian philosophies enlivening yoga and practice physical poses of yoga; and running a half-marathon would be really cool too. I'm also going to be studying abroad in Melbourne, Australia next semester, which I'm really excited about. I'm looking forward to experiencing Australia– living its way-of-life, exploring Sydney and Melbourne, and hopefully learning how to surf!
Curb Scholar Blog: From Inspiration to Creation

The deliberate creation of original and organic ideas has never been an easy task. Yet that is what we are here to do at Curb. We are given as many stimuli as possible, taken to some of the farthest, most secluded parts of the landscape, with no purpose at all—simply to get ideas. When no ideas come, we go somewhere else, talk to other people, converse among ourselves, do another brainstorming activity—anything for that spark, that itch, which we can turn into a project, an initiative, a cause.
That's the premise. Welcome to Curb.
