Best Wildlife Documentary Lately
By BMS2010
from Darwin, AU
Best Uses
An absolutely must-have for fans of wildlife film-making. This is a wildlife documentary done the proper, David Attenburough-esque way (with David Attenburough, of course haha.) But it is far from "old school" using state of the art video techniques and a commitment to the saltwater crocodile seldom seen anywhere. No sensationalist non-sense here.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Dartmouth : Michelin's recommendations
It would be hard not to be charmed by this little town on the banks of the Dart estuary. A tiny port surrounded by elegant buildings, paved lanes bordered by white houses with flowers, a coastal path, exuberant greenery and a large marina all contribute to the appeal of Dartmouth, protected from seaborne assault by its proud fortress which stands on a spur overlooking the water.

Volleyball Hopes Depth, Competition Lead Tigers Back Atop Ivy League
Check out the new Information Central page for Princeton women's volleyball.
When Princeton won the 2007 Ivy League title, there were 15 players on the roster and most of the spots in the starting lineup were all but solidified well before the season opener. Sabrina King, who has won Ivy League titles as both a player and an assistant coach, hopes a new method will lead to similar results this season.
When King, now in her third season as head coach, looks out on her preseason practices, she sees 20 players battling for almost every position on the court.
And that competition is driving the entire roster to one of Princeton's most productive preseasons in years.
"I've been really pleased at the way we have worked throughout the preseason," said King, who has been part of five Ivy League championship teams. "They have competed hard, but they have supported each other throughout the process. There is a really good dynamic in the gym, and strong leadership has been an important part of that."
Princeton lost only one senior starter from the 2012 season, but she was one of the league's most reliable hitters. Lydia Rudnick led the Ivy League in kills and points, and she was a three-time member of the all-league first team.
King doesn't necessarily believe one player needs to step up and replace Rudnick's production; instead, she thinks the offense can find a greater balance, and she is counting on both the experienced returners and the talented newcomers to share that burden.
Princeton could use a countless array of tandems on the outside this weekend alone, several of which include 2013 co-captains Chelsea Parker and Sarah Hanna. Parker averaged a kill per set last season, but she has as much experience as anybody on the roster. Hanna averaged 1.7 kills per set, but she was a starter in 2011 and proved to be a tricky hitter to defend when she was on her game.
Another option could be sophomore Kendall Peterkin, a first-team All-Ivy League honoree last season. Peterkin played the right side last year, and she could remain there this season, but King could experiment with her on the left side as well. Peterkin ranked second in the Ivy League with 3.7 points per set, and she demonstrated her potential with a 27-kill performance in a victory over Harvard.
Freshmen Cara Mattaliano, Ellie Shannon and Mary Claire Bartlett have all pushed the competition in the preseason, and King is excited to see what they can do in the early-season tournaments.
Read all about the Class of 2017 here.
Peterkin does return as the starting right side, but King can test her on the left because of the presence of junior Francie Jenkins. Though her experience is somewhat limited, she has consistently made an impact when she has seen the court, including a victory at Penn.
There is no lack of experience in the middle, as Princeton returns its entire group from last season, and adds a talented newcomers.
Senior Leah Jordan and juniors Tiana Woolridge and Nicole Kincade all played between 58 and 64 sets apiece last season. Kincade had the highest number of kills (2.1) and blocks (1.1) per set, while Jordan had the highest hitting percentage (.336). Woolridge peaked during the Ivy season, though, and was selected for the All-Ivy League Second Team.
Freshman Brittany Ptak, a former All-Orange County first-team honoree, is doing all she can to earn time in the middle rotation.
The setter position has also had quality competition this fall. Junior Ginny Willis, a two-time All-Ivy honoree, is the incumbent starter and averaged more than 10.6 assists per set last season. She has been the primary setter throughout her career, and her big-match experience is a major advantage.
Highly touted freshman Lauren Miller has also played well in the preseason, though, and will likely see some quality time over the next few tournament weekends.
Princeton opens its season this weekend at the George Mason Tournament, including the Friday night opener at George Mason. The Tigers will also play against both Coppin State (11 am) and Radford (5 pm) Saturday.
All three matches can be seen live through the Ivy League Digital Network.

ZF-5555: Zend_File_Transfer generates notice, when validating a non-required empty file element
Notice: Undefined index: validated in /var/www/project/library/Zend/File/Transfer/Adapter/Abstract.php on line 578
The code thats seems to generate the error is: if ($content['validated'] === true) {
Not able to reproduce this behaviour:
The validated key is set at initiation of the HTTP adapter. It is never unset only changed to true and false and always available.
When the validated key is not available then probably something was overwritten or you are using an outdated release.
Please give a reproducable example of your problem.
I've reproduce this issue doing this :
- make a controller in which you set a Zend_Form $form
- $form should contain an input file ($file)
- create the view, omitting the input file element ** go to webbrowser an post this form
- when executed
the following method produce the message {quote}Notice: Undefined index: validated in /var/www/project/library/Zend/File/Transfer/Adapter/Abstract.php on line 578{quote}
This seems to append when Zend_Form try to validate a non posted input file element. Hope this help.
Updated issue to its original description.
@ Loke; please dont "ruin" an issue next time ;)
@Jérôme: Please note that this issue is marked as "fixed with ZF 1.7.3".
Additionally in the actual release ZF1.8 there is no codeline which reads "if ($content['validated'] === true) {"
Therefor this issue remains as "incomplete"
OK Thomas, thanks.
FYI, my test was made using ZF 1.7.7

Jimmie Johnson wins Coke Zero 400, enters record book
Published: Saturday, July 6, 2013 at 4:24 p.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, July 7, 2013 at 12:21 a.m.
DAYTONA BEACH -- Jimmie Johnson joined elite stock-car company, but it was a wild ride before an estimated 90,000 spectators, in Saturday's Coke Zero 400 at Daytona International Speedway.
Photo Galleries
Johnson, driving the No. 48 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet nicknamed "White Lightning," survived a two-lap, overtime shootout to become the first driver in 31 years to sweep Daytona's two Sprint Cup Series races.
The five-time Cup Series champion and current points leader opened the season by winning the Daytona 500.
Johnson's win denied Tony Stewart's moment of Daytona glory. He was attempting to tie David Pearson's record of five summer Daytona wins, but came up one position short.
Johnson became the fifth driver in 55 years of competition to pull out the broom at Daytona. The others were Fireball Roberts, Cale Yarborough, LeeRoy Yarbrough and Bobby Allison -- the last to sweep in 1982.
"That's amazing," Johnson said in Victory Lane. Johnson led 94 of 161 laps and said he didn't make any mistakes during the high-speed battle.
"We had a very, very fast racecar," said Johnson, who has four Cup Series wins this season and averaged 154.313 mph Saturday. The race was slowed by six cautions covering 27 laps.
"I think I showed strength early and a lot of guys were willing to work with me and kind of help me through situations," Johnson said.
Stewart, driving the No. 14 Chevy, flashed across the finish line 0.107 seconds behind Johnson, as chaos reigned behind the lead cars. It appeared at least a dozen cars were involved in the last-lap scramble to the checkered flag.
"Our guys did a great job," Stewart said. "We had a fast car. Jimmie was really, really good. We were just a little bit off of him. It was like we planned it, except for missing that one last spot."
"It was a crazy finish," rookie Ricky Stenhouse Jr. said. He wound up 11th after the dust settled.
Danica Patrick, who finished eighth in the Daytona 500, was involved in the final melee, but still managed to pull out a 14th-place showing.
Rounding out the top-five finishers were Kevin Harvick, Clint Bowyer and Michael Waltrip, making only his third start of the season. The top three cars were Chevrolets. Bowyer and Waltrip were wheeling Toyotas.
Late cautions could have derailed Johnson's ride into the history books, but he persevered.
The penultimate yellow flag was for his Hendrick Motorsports teammate Kasey Kahne, who took a vicious hit on an inside wall after being body-slammed by Marcos Ambrose in heavy traffic on Lap 156.
Johnson, who has been involved in at least three restart controversies this season, was flawless getting up to speed Saturday night.
"I don't know if I really made a bad move, so I'm pretty proud of that," Johnson said.

Guesses have been coming in fast and furious for the theme contest, but I have to tell you, not a single one has come close.
Keep trying! (Yes, you may enter more than once.)
To help you out, I've made the hints more visible. You'll find them where we keep the people. (Howzat for a hint?)
There's a puzzle element to this. Can you put the pieces together?
Good luck!
Email your guesses to me at kathychung at siwc dot ca.

Hello, ladies and gentlemen.
My email has been crowded with guesses the last couple of days. So I figure it's time for a hint.
Most of you are assuming it's more complicated than it is. This is a low-tech puzzle. Collect the bits, put it together. Winner take all!
Also, since the question came up in my email a couple of times, all the bits can be moved around and case is not important.
Keep on it!

i hate living in a popular city.
"There has to be evil so that good can prove its purity above it."
- Guatama Buddha
So would I, new york/ stl/ las vegas are the last places on Earth I'd choose to live, but if it means getting a free education I might just move to Missouri. Still haven't made up my mind on it..
i'll probably be out of this state next year.
"There has to be evil so that good can prove its purity above it."
- Guatama Buddha
New York disturbs me because there's a real lack of trees and open spaces.
Vegas is a watered dessert, don't go there if they have a drought everything will turn to dust.
If you are pore enough you can get into Harvard. I didn't try cause I think I missed the deadline and I don't like cold weather.
everyone loves pizza. I actually work at a pizza joint now! (don't hate, it's a million times more fun than my old job, so I love it )
I've come to a realization... I don't like Pizza. Actually, it's more of, I hate it now. I ate some while bowling and... ugh. Made me sick just eating it.
Oh well. Going Hiking up a mountain with some friends later today with my toe shoes:
going to be the best fun ever! And I'll post some pics of me hiking around I guess. I'm just excited about my toe shoes!! *weeeeee*
Leo 3DS friend Code: 0344 - 9299 - 0936
It's not that I don't like pizza, I do. I just hate the role in society that pizza has taken, and I don't think there SHOULD be a universal food that everybody in the world enjoys. It just ruins everything.
I prefer plain cheese with light sauce, unless its chicago style deep dish, then extra sauce.
I'm so hungry I think I am literally starving to death as we speak
yes, in fact, I am, I just died a little bit
and not a little death either
just a little bit of death and it was unpleasant
The best pizza in the world is Great Plains Pizza only found in Ames, Iowa. It's worth the trip every time. <3
What a great thread. haha
Your an absolutely wonderful man, any girl that is yours is lucky and I know that from personal experience. ~KMT
Pizza is not my favorite food is not the idea. This is great, I always for some, but it is not my favorite food HP 97 nearby.

Statement by Ambassador Ron Prosor
Situation in Syria - Statement by Amb Ron Prosor
Israel's Ambassador ro the United Nations Ron Prosor to the United Nations UN General Assembly: "No decent human being can stay silent in the face of what is happening in Syria. The people of Syria are the deliberate targets of a brutal regime that will commit any crime to cling to power.
Thank you, Mr. President for convening this important discussion.
Eli Wiesel once said, "We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented." His words call to us at moments like this.
It doesn't matter where you come from, or what politics you preach, or what faith you belong to - no decent human being can stay silent in the face of what is happening in Syria.
The people of Syria are not the indiscriminate victims of a natural disaster. They are not the tragic fatalities of a famine. They are not the accidental casualties of war. They are the deliberate targets of a brutal regime that will commit any crime and cross any line to cling to power.
We hear the words spoken in today's debate, but the appalling images and stories coming out of Syria are what stick in our minds. This morning I hear the cries of the infants massacred in Houla. I see the pleading eyes of the children of Homs, desperate and terrified beyond belief. I try to put myself into the shoes of the families whose loved ones have disappeared into Assad's torture chambers - and will never be heard from again.
Today I urge this Assembly to think of each man, woman, and child slaughtered by the Syrian Government in the past 15 months. It grows larger month by month, day by day, hour by hour. More than 4,000 have been killed since the General Assembly last discussed this issue. How many more innocents must die before the world acts?
The pictures coming out of Syria serve as a moral call to every person and every nation in the world. Nowhere is that call more clear than here at the United Nations, which was founded primarily to safeguard the principles of human rights, dignity and life.
Today, on behalf of the Israeli people and the Jewish people, I say directly to the Syrian people: we hear your cries. We are horrified by the crimes of the Assad regime. We extend our hand to you.
Mr. President,
Assad is not the only one with the blood of the Syrian people on his hands. Iran and Hizbullah sit on his advisory board, offering guidance on how to butcher the Syrian people more efficiently. They direct an army of mercenaries that work on his behalf. Today Iranian Revolutionary Guards are funneling weapons to his troops. Hezbollah operatives are firing at his people.
Before our eyes we see a trio of brutality. Assad, Ahmadinejad, and Nasrallah are joined by an extremist and hateful ideology. The future of this trio of brutality depends on crushing the hopes and dreams of millions throughout the region. The international community cannot allow them to continue operating with impunity. The costs of further delay and division are clear. With each day that passes, the unbearable price for the Syrian people rises. The trio of brutality must be held to account.
I have said it before and I'll say it again: Bashar al-Assad has no moral authority to govern. The international community must recognize that the hourglass of the Assad regime has run out - and seize this as an hour of action. It is high time for the voices of the victims in Syria to finally unite the voices of the world against the tyrant of Damascus. Our common humanity binds us to them. Their fate is in our hands.
Thank you, Mr. President.

|Men top #17/21 Utah State
MOSCOW, Idaho - University of Idaho junior Deremy Geiger got the best birthday present he could have asked for on Wednesday, as he led the Vandals to a 64-56 victory over No. 21/17 Utah State at the Cowan Spectrum.
Utah State (22-3, 11-1 Western Athletic Conference) entered the game with a 17-game overall winning streak and a WAC-record 25 consecutive conference wins, but the Vandals came out with high energy and matched the Aggies every step of the way.
The win puts Idaho at 14-10 overall and 7-5 in the WAC, and ends an 11-game skid against Utah State that dated back to 2005. It was the second win against a top-25 team in the last two seasons by the Vandals. Utah State, which was ranked 21st in the AP poll entering the week, is the highest-ranked team Idaho has beaten since 1982, when the Vandals took down No. 16 Iowa 69-67 at the NCAA Tournament.
"What a great win for our program, for our players, and I couldn't be happier for them and the University of Idaho," Vandal head coach Don Verlin said after the game. "It's been a long time since we've beaten those guys."
"I told our coaches before the game, 'First one to 60 wins,' and we got there before they did."
It was a game that featured the WAC's top two defenses and top two shooting teams. Defense won out, as the Aggies shot a season-low 33.8 percent from the field and 17.9 percent from 3-point range. Idaho hit 42.3 percent for the game, but went just 3-for-17 (.176) from 3-point land.
Idaho's defense forced 13 Aggie turnovers, from which they got 17 points. Utah State had nine points off 12 Vandal turnovers. Idaho also held a 10-2 edge in fast-break points. Idaho gave up an opponent season-high 20 offensive boards to Utah State, which outscored the Vandals 15-10 on the second chance.
"We were very fortunate they missed some wide-open shots," Verlin said. "In the first half, they rebounded them, in the second half we rebounded them, and that was kind of the difference in the game."
Idaho never trailed in the second half, and the score was tied for just 21 seconds at 39-39. Idaho used a pair of clutch 3-pointers by Ledbetter and solid free throw shooting to build a lead, then allowed just three second-chance points off four offensive rebounds in the final 11 minutes of the game to maintain it.
"We preached all week about winning plays," Verlin said. "If you're going to win a big game, you've got to make winning plays, and that means getting the loose balls, taking some charges, making a key block, making the extra pass."
Geiger, who started his playing career at USU in the 2008-09 season, scored 12 points and grabbed a career-high nine rebounds. Senior guard Jeff Ledbetter led Idaho with 14 points, and added four rebounds and three steals. With three straight made free throws at the end of the first half, Ledbetter also tied Gary Simmons' 55-year-old Idaho record with his 26th-consecutive made free throw.
After the game, Verlin said he thought sophomore center Kyle Barone played his best game as a Vandal. Barone earned his second double-double of the season with an 11-point, 12-rebound effort. He also blocked a pair of shots and went five-for-five from the free throw line.
Brockeith Pane led Utah State with 14 points and seven assists, while Tyler Newbold added 12 points and four boards. Senior forward Tai Wesley netted a double-double with 11 points and 10 rebounds, but also turned it over six times and fouled out with 58 seconds remaining in the game.
Both teams and coaches wore special "BeLIEVE" t-shirts in support of Coaches vs. Cancer, but for the Vandal men, the shirts had a double meaning.
"We wore them for a reason," Ledbetter said of the shirts. "We believe that we can play with the best in the conference, and we proved that tonight."
Idaho opened the game with a Brandon Wiley steal that energized the crowd of 1,512, then the Vandals fed off that with makes on their first five attempts. Leading 10-5 at the 15:38 mark of the first half, Idaho faltered and gave away three straight possessions, which helped start an 8-0 Aggie run that put USU up, 13-10 at 9:18.
The teams exchanged the lead twice and tied twice over the next six minutes before Idaho came alive and outscored Utah State 10-5 over the final four minutes of the period to take a 27-24 halftime lead.
The Vandals will try to bottle their emotional high for another important WAC game on Saturday when they head to Taco Bell Arena to face Boise State, which clipped Idaho, 70-67, earlier this year in Moscow. The Broncos are 12-11 overall and 5-6 in the WAC. They've lost four in a row since their Jan. 22 victory in at the Cowan Spectrum.
Saturday's game will be Idaho's second in a row on the ESPN family of networks. That game will tip off at 8:05 p.m. (PT) on ESPNU.

Since moving out to the west coast, there's a lot of candy changes I've noticed when I go to the local stores. It's amazing to me how regional candy can be, and some treats that I was so used to seeing are no longer around. Then there's the candies that I never saw and now see routinely on my grocery store trips. Brown Haley's Roca candies are one of these. I used to never be able to find them, and now that I'm on the west coast I see them everywhere. I've tried them unofficially, but I haven't sat down to do a real officially review of them just yet. I hope to fix that some today with this seasonal variety of Roca that is peppermint flavored.
I really like the Roca's package design. The red and white stripes and the easily recognizable Roca logo make it so beautiful and festive. The top opens up to reveal a sealed foil packet that holds the Roca pieces safely and keeps them fresh. Simple and easy design.
The candies come individuality wrapped in heavy foil wrappers that are decorated with white and red stripes. You can smell the chocolate through the wrappers. There's only the the slightest hint of peppermint, which I was surprised by as I was expecting more of a scent. Once unwrapped, the Roca has a nice, deep dark chocolate coating. There's a drizzle of white chocolate on top which gives it a nice seasonal feeling.
The first bite is incredibly crispy and just easily falls apart into nice soft pieces. The peppermint flavor is mixed into the dark chocolate, and it gives it a very rich flavor from the peppermint oil. The toffee's buttery flavor shines through once the dark chocolate coating melts away. It's beautifully sweet and very buttery with light toasted notes. The blending of the dark chocolate, the toffee and the peppermint flavoring is a very flavorful one. It works well with keeping what we all recognize to be a Roca candy, but at the same time it's something seasonal.
I was super pleased with the texture of the toffee in these candies. They were hard, but shattered beautifully into pieces when bitten into the right way. The toffee pieces weren't sharp and instead felt a little soft as you began to chew them. It's completely delightful to much on these. The flavor is great too, with the peppermint being a great addition to the Roca's normal flavors. These are a nice introduction into the Roca line if you've never had them. Also if you're just crazy about Peppermint but don't want something too strong, these are a good way to go.

Apparently the age of chivalry is forever dead and gone. In case you do not know what the word chivalry means, the dictionary lists gallantry, politeness, courtesy, graciousness and good manners among its synonyms. Unless you are over the age of 50 you are probably unaware that chivalry ever existed in our culture and society. When you think of chivalry the image of a knight in shining armor might very well pop into your head. Classic fairy tales once told stories about gallant knights who rescued fair maidens in distress. They treated young ladies with respect, eventually married them and lived happily ever after. Once upon a time and not so long ago, parents taught their young men to respect the fairer and gentler sex. Before attending any social function, a young gentleman was taught to open doors, including car doors, and to politely and properly seat his date at the table before sitting down himself. He would kneel to pick up a dropped handkerchief or even place his own coat over a mud puddle so she wouldn't have to step there. A gentleman also would remove his hat in the presence of a lady and he certainly would never use any vulgar or profane language while she was around. In most instances, he would apologize for the boorish behavior of others while he was with her. In this day and time, I have personally witnessed men rudely step in front of women in lunch lines and curse like a sailor in front of them. Over the years relationships between men and women have changed – some might say evolved. Equality movements have changed women's role in the business world. Today, many women are the breadwinners of the family and I speak that to the shame of some of the men who have forced a lot of women into that role by their own lack of responsibility. I am not opposed to women's rights. We have come a long way in terms of equality. Women deserve equal pay for an equal job done. However at the same time it has created some strain in the workplace. Today, things that were once meant to be compliments are sometimes misconstrued as sexual harassment and I am not referring to unwanted advances by supervisors. This really intended to be a finger-pointing sermon at my own gender. For far too long, generations have forgotten what it truly means to respect a lady. I will be the first to admit that I do not always treat my wife with the respect she so richly deserves. After all, she is truly a gift from God. However, I truly do try to follow my own advice when physically possible. Gallantry, politeness, courtesy, graciousness and good manners, or chivalry, should never go out of style. There are not many ladies who would not appreciate a door being opened for them or being properly seated at a restaurant.

"This is an excellent recipe. It has become one of my favorites and the flavors are amazing. Instead of boiling my asparagus, however, I spread them out on a foil lined baking sheet, season with olive oil, salt and pepper. Bake at 400 degrees for 8 minutes, and you will have the most perfectly cooked asparagus ever."

ZF-2244: Zend_Db_Table should throw an exception if no adapter could be found
Despite the different methods that we can use to provide Zend_Db_Table an adapter, sometimes we simply forget that. Actually, ZendFramework doesn't care and results in a PHP fatal error trying to describe tables.
A patch is attached to this issue
Here is the patch
The patch looks good. Thanks, Julien! :) One thing I would probably change is to replace "{{get_class($this)}}" with "{{__CLASS__}}", since a function call is more expensive.
Otherwise, Julien, would you please test this patch and commit it for us? You should now have the SVN karma to commit framework code, tests, and documentation.
If you have any problems, please just [e-mail me|mailto:firstname.lastname@example.com], and I'll work with you on it. :)
If you echo CLASS, it will always print 'Zend_Db_Table_Abstract' If you echo get_class($this), it will print the real class $this is instance of ( better for debugging purposes).
Ah, of course. I suspected there may have been good reason to do this, thanks for explaining! :)

ACA Women's Mentoring Program - Racer Interview
Submitted by David on
After the Wheels of Thunder race last Saturday we reached out to women cyclists and Lori Emerson was kind enough to answer and share her experience with 303Cycling. We asked her a few questions and here are her answers.
[303Cycling] How did you get into cycling and how did you make the jump to racing?
[Lori] I long wanted to get into cycling - nothing matches the feeling of freedom you get from riding a bike. I started out by buying touring bikes with my husband about eight years ago and I just used mine to take long bike rides around Grand Island and Buffalo, NY. In my mind, I was training for a mythical bike tour across the US that we wanted to take.
I then moved to Atlanta, GA and decided that I would try triathlon, partly to stay fit and partly to meet people. I did a couple triathlons on the touring bike, all the while knowing that that I just wanted to save up some money, buy a road bike, and focus my energies on cycling.
I was also intensely envious of women cyclists I'd see around with team kits and on group rides. It's really the cycling community that makes it an amazing sport. When we moved to Boulder two years ago, I made the leap - bought a road bike and shopped around for a local women's cycling club that would help teach me basic riding skills (how to ride in a group, how to brake, hill-climb, draft etc.) as well as introduce me to racing.
They encouraged me to just race - don't over-think it, don't wait until you're fantastic, just start showing up at races and give it a try. Title Nine was incredibly helpful and supportive - a perfect club for the woman cyclist who's just starting out. This year I decided to try something different and I joined the Trek Store Bicycle Team, which so far has been great but really needs more women team-members.
[303Cycling] Did you choose the race because it was part of the mentoring program? Can you tell us the differences between racing with mentors versus without?
[Lori] I would have raced Wheels of Thunder with or without mentors but having the mentors there was incredibly useful. They helped to keep the pack together, told us when we should be chasing, told us where we should be positioning ourselves in relation to the wind, and talked us through how to best take the corners. The race would have been a LOT less safe and more erratic if the mentors weren't there.
[303Cycling] What would you recommend for women who would like to give racing a try?
[Lori] I would so love to see more women just come out and race. Without any pressure to win or perform: show up ready to have fun, ride safely, meet other women, and to encourage and by encouraged by other women trying out this sport.
If there's one thing I wish for it's for women to not feel intimidated by bike racing and for us to help each other and cheer each other on. For me, racing is really more about the training, the camaraderie and the community than it is about the results. Joining a club or a team can help you along, give you tips and direction, but I don't think it's as important as just getting out there!

Pattern Matching Performance with HyperScan* Software: Brief
The multi-threaded architecture of Sensory Networks HyperScan* software enables multiple instances of the pattern-matching executable, perhaps utilizing different signature sets, to run simultaneously. It should be used on a multi-core hardware platform in order to maximize performance.
But how many cores are needed? What are the minimum platform requirements that will enable equipment designers to forego dedicated hardware acceleration? What kind of extra, performance-enhancing features are needed to optimize pattern matching and deliver better overall data security?
In an effort to answer these questions and identify the ideal platform for their software, Sensory Networks prepared a series of benchmark tests using different hardware platforms. They selected multi-core Intel® architecture platforms for all of the tests because it was available in multiple variants for number of cores available, performance levels, and feature sets. That coupled with micro-architectural level innovations, rich instruction set architecture, and a fully developed software toolkit enabled Sensory Networks to perform the necessary tests evenly across multiple systems.
While the HyperScan software performed well on Intel's original quad-core platform, it scaled significantly when run on the new Intel® Xeon® processor 5500 series (formerly code-named "Nehalem"). In fact, the tests showed the new platform performing 22 percent faster (clock-for-clock) than the previous generation quad-core processor, and an 18 percent aggregate improvement in throughput performance.
This solution study explains the benchmark tests and describes how Sensory Networks HyperScan software running on a platform with the Intel Xeon processor 5500 series can deliver the necessary performance to maintain line rates when running security applications.

Stewart-Marchman patient strikes staffer to avoid gang violence, deputy says
Published: Wednesday, November 28, 2012 at 4:46 p.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, November 28, 2012 at 4:46 p.m.
In an effort to avoid gang violence, a patient at Stewart-Marchman-Act Behavioral Healthcare in Daytona Beach struck a staff member in the face to get himself moved to another area, a report shows.
Staff member Dennis Dube was in the common area Tuesday evening with several patients, including 22-year-old Christopher Wilcox of Ormond Beach, when Wilcox approached him and struck him in the face, according to a Volusia County sheriff's charging affidavit. Dube, who told deputies he didn't suffer any injuries, had no idea why Wilcox, who also goes by "Lil C" or "Lil Murder," hit him since the two hadn't even spoken.
When asked about the attack, Wilcox, who claims he's involved with the "Crips," wanted to avoid a confrontation with a "Blood" recently admitted to the facility at 1150 Red John Drive and causing problems, according to the report. Wilcox told deputies "if he did not do something to get out there would have been more violence."
Wilcox is charged with battery on a detention staffer, according to the affidavit.

9 canceled TV shows that came back
"The Killing" returned on Friday, now on Netflix
Netflix is raising the dead from the television graveyard once again.
After "The Killing" was canceled by AMC last September, the nation's leading streaming video on-demand service stepped in to offer the series a resurrection. Albeit, a brief one.
The mystery drama series, which ran for three seasons on AMC, will premiere its six-episode farewell season today on Netflix, according to the company. While "The Killing" isn't the first TV series to survive cancellation, it does join a short list.
Here are 8 other shows that were given a second — or sometimes third — chance:
Arrested Development
This critically-acclaimed sitcom ran from 2003 to 2006 on Fox, garnering dismal ratings of just over 6 million weekly viewers, according to the New York Times. The network canceled the show, which IGN.com called the "funniest TV show of all time," picked up a strong cult following after being released on DVD. Seven years after its untimely cancellation, Netflix aired a fourth season of "Arrested Development" in 2013.
In arguably the most successful network switch in TV history, CBS picked up "Jag" after it had been left for dead by NBC in 1996, following a lackluster first season. "Jag" went on to air for ten seasons, becoming a flagship program for CBS and eventually spawning the top-rated series "NCIS."
Family Guy
Another show that turned into a major hit after being canceled, "Family Guy" was dumped after two seasons by Fox, which cited declining ratings. However, strong DVD sales of the show's first two seasons prompted Fox to give the Griffin family another chance. The series has since spawned a spin-off and collected three Emmy awards.
Fox's animated programs have fared well beyond cancellation, as this cult sci-fi series from the creator of "The Simpsons" has proven. Originally airing on the network from 1999 to 2003, the show was canned until Comedy Central stepped up to finance a revival in 2009. After the show was canceled again in 2013, creator Matt Groening has said he may shop the show around for a second time.
Betty White's Off Their Rockers
This hidden camera prank program ran on NBC for two seasons, starting in 2012. The network shut the show down after citing declining ratings. Cable channel Lifetime agreed to pick the Betty White vehicle up, airing a third season earlier this year.
Mama's Family
Despite featuring a cast of comedic legends, including Vicki Lawrence, Rue McClanahan and Betty White, "Mama's Family" was canceled by NBC in 1985 after two seasons. Production company Lorimar-Telepictures picked the show up for a first-run syndication run that lasted four more seasons. Lawrence has described the show as a pioneer, being "one of the first sitcoms to do syndication."
Diff'rent Strokes
The show that made Gary Coleman a household name was another left for dead by NBC, until the show was given a resurrection by a competing network. After seven successful seasons on the Peacock, ratings reportedly slipped and caused the show's end. ABC quickly picked "Diff'rent Strokes" up for a final eighth season, which aired in 1986.
Unsolved Mysteries
This show has proven to be invincible, being given not one — but four rebirths after its original cancellation. "Unsolved Mysteries" premiered on NBC in 1987 and ran for 10 respectable seasons before being axed in 1997. Since then, the documentary crime series has aired on CBS, Spike TV and two separate runs on Lifetime.

Beyond 2015
- Date submitted: 31 Oct 2011
- Stakeholder type: Major Group
- Name: Beyond 2015
- Submission Document: Download
General Contenta) What are the expectations for the outcome of Rio+20, and what are the concrete proposals in this regard, including views on a possible structure of the Outcome document? The outcome of Rio+20 should not be a quick-win set of goals (either SDGs or replacement MDGs). Instead, discussions at Rio+20 should pave the road for developing concrete principles and statements to be fed into the post MDG debates and discussions, and agree that a future set of goals will have sustainability at its core. The discussion of SDGs and MDGs at Rio+20 should build on previous experience, discussions and commitments on sustainable development. We suggest the following outcomes in relation to a post MDG framework:
- A post MDG framework to be discussed at Rio+20, under the ?Institutional framework for sustainable development? theme of the conference.
- Delegates agree that a post 2015 framework for development should be an urgent priority for the international community, and that the framework needs to address a number of interlinked global challenges of: poverty, environmental sustainability, economic sustainability, gender justice, climate change, resilience, unfair distribution of resources, human rights and inequality.
- Delegates should also agree that the process for developing a post 2015 development framework should be transparent, participative and engage marginalised people affected by poverty and injustice.
- There should not be an attempt to rush through a new set of goals and targets to secure a ?positive outcome? from Rio+20.
- Delegates should agree to input constructively to the development of a post 2015 framework, and provide resources where necessary.
- Delegates should make clear links between the poverty, the environment and climate change and discuss the links between the MDGs and UN Conventions, for example the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) and UNFCCC, and how these can be better integrated into a post 2015 framework.
- Delegates at Rio+20 should invite analysis of the current MDGs and identify how their relative strengths and weaknesses can inform the post 2015 framework.
- Beyond 2015?s ?Essential Must Haves? should be reflected in the positions of delegates (see annex 1).
b) What are the comments, if any, on existing proposals: e.g., a green economy roadmap, framework for action, sustainable development goals, a revitalized global partnership for sustainable development, or others? Sustainable Development Goals: We welcome Colombia putting Sustainable Development Goals on the agenda for Rio+20. This is a very valuable discussion, but any outcome from Rio+20 needs to fully integrate poverty reduction, equity and sustainable development. There are some positive elements of the proposed Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), for example that they discuss universal goals (rather than just goals for the South). However we have some concerns that proposals are at the moment vague and seem to run parallel to, rather than integrated with, the MDGs. We worry that this could undermine attempts to achieve either set of goals and efforts to develop a comprehensive post 2015 agenda. We suggest that
- The relationship between the MDGs and SDGs needs to be clarified. At the moment they appear to be a parallel set of goals rather than an integrated set of goals.
- There are some aspects of SDGs which are very appealing, for example that they apply to all countries. However, the current Colombia proposal is weak on equity and stakeholder participation
- SDGs should integrate targets from the CBD, UNFCCC and the MDGs.
- The successor to the MDGs should have sustainable development at its heart. This includes sustainable business practices and models.
Green Economy: A Green Economy is not automatically an economy that brings prosperity for the poor and delivers human development gains. The fair governance and management of natural assets is key to ensuring a green economy delivers for the poor. These issues need to be reflected in the Zero Draft for Rio+20. We recognise that there is no one model of what a fair green economy would look like, nevertheless, we recommend that green economies need to deliver on the following:
- deliver for the poor and improve human wellbeing, social equity and fairness
- deliver lasting greenhouse gas emissions reductions,
- ensure humankind?s ecological footprint is sustainable,
- maintain and enhance natural capital, biodiversity and Ecosystem services
c) What are the views on implementation and on how to close the implementation gap, which relevant actors are envisaged as being involved (Governments, specific Major Groups, UN system, IFIs, etc.); There needs to be a clear and transparent process for developing a post-2015 development framework, with consultation and deliberative engagement with all relevant stakeholders, including those who are excluded from the current MDGs. Before any post MDG framework is developed and implemented, there must be adequate consultation with relevant stakeholders at all levels.
Although national governments have responsibilities in relation to funding and implementation, the UN is the only legitimate and representative global governance structure in a position to show strong leadership in the development of any such framework. As such, the Secretary General should establish a high level of ambition around a post-2015 framework. His attitude towards the process will determine the extent to which post-2015 planning is seen as a priority.
Civil society has an important role in developing and implementing a post 2015 development framework. The UN should capitalise on the advances in participative methods and new technology as well as and on high-quality initiatives that may emerge outside the formal United Nations process, and lead extensive consultation and deliberative engagement processes.
There also needs to be mechanisms in place to ensure that important actors, such as the larger development banks, IFIs and private sector have a positive role to play, (including funding), in efforts to develop a participatory and accountable framework.
The creation of an Independent Commission which could act as a focal point and hold an overview of the various debates should serve this purpose. Its members should represent a range of sectors, and be balanced in terms of gender and nationality.
d) What specific cooperation mechanisms, partnership arrangements or other implementation tools are envisaged and what is the relevant time frame for the proposed decisions to be reached and actions to be implemented? Partnerships were a key feature of Johannesburg WSSD but have not been reviewed in terms of their real achievements for, and impacts on, human development and environment. The UN should ensure that evaluations show lessons learned for any future international endorsement of partnerships.
Rio+20 comes at a time when we are in a negative spiral of ?failed? international conferences. The focus needs to be on developing trust and rebuilding faith in the possibility of international cooperation. The easiest way to avoid disappointment is to avoid unrealistic expectations.
Specific Elementsa) Objective of the Conference: To secure renewed political commitment for sustainable development, assessing the progress to date and remaining gaps in the implementation of the outcomes of the major summits on sustainable development and addressing new and emerging challenges. Contributions could include possible sectoral priorities (e.g., (e.g., energy, food security and sustainable agriculture, technology transfer, water, oceans, sustainable urbanization, sustainable consumption and production, natural disaster preparedness and climate change adaptation, biodiversity, etc.) and sectoral initiatives that contribute to integrate the three pillars of sustainable development could be launched and endorsed at Rio+20. Rio+20 is an excellent opportunity to raise sustainable development back up the political and public agenda. Rio+20 is also an opportunity to link up discussions on climate change, the environment and poverty. These three issues are closely linked and need to be tackled in an integrated way. For example greater synergies need to be made between the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), UNFCCC and MDGs, and Rio+20 is an opportunity to do this.
A post 2015 development framework needs to have sustainable development as its underpinning narrative, if it is to succeed in addressing poverty in the long term. It also needs to fully integrate climate change and the vital role of the environment in poverty reduction as well as the drivers of poverty and vulnerability ? thereby addressing weaknesses in the current MDG framework.
b) Green economy in the context of sustainable development and poverty eradication: views regarding how green economy can be a means to achieve sustainable development in its three dimensions, and poverty eradication; what is its potential added value; experience to date, including what has worked and how to build upon success, what are the challenges and opportunities and how to address the challenges and seize opportunities, and possible elements of an agreement in outcome document on a green economy in the context of sustainable development and poverty eradication See response to Qu 2 above on the Green Economy.
c) Institutional framework for sustainable development: Priorities and proposals for strengthening individual pillars of sustainable development, as well as those for strengthening integration of the three pillars, at multiple levels; local, national, regional and international. Integrating the three pillars of sustainable development will only happen if we transcend the business as usual model, all three elements need to influence our thinking on the Green Economy.
We recommend that a post 2015 development framework needs to operate at a range of different levels, setting out global goals, as well as contextualised national targets for developed and developing countries aiming at a sustainable and equitable global development, as well as the eradication of extreme poverty.
The post 2015 framework must address:
o Root causes of poverty and injustice in all countries, from the richest to the poorest.
o Inequity and inequality.
o Environmental sustainability and climate change.
o The responsibility of national governments to sustainably manage their natural and financial resources.
o The responsibility of the international community to support developing countries in the face of global challenges through respecting their ODA commitments as well as through innovative redistributive funding mechanisms which would generate additional predictive finance.
o The responsibility of developing country governments to deliver on development commitments.
o Take forward Rio principle 10 on access to information and participation in decision making, along with access to justice.
The post 2015 framework must clearly lay out enforceable accountability mechanisms, as well as the process for accountability at a national, regional and global level. This must include national oversight and independent review mechanisms at the international level.
d) Any proposals for refinement of the two themes. Recall that Resolution 64/236 describes the focus of the Conference: "The focus of the Conference will include the following themes to be discussed and refined during the preparatory process: a green economy in the context of sustainable development and poverty eradication and the institutional framework for sustainable development".

E-Mail Question & Answers
September 2011
Card Values - Best Grading Company - Famous Fabrics + More
Question: I'm a big fan of your podcast - got into them a couple of months ago. I recently got back into collecting cards - only basketball - with a theme of collecting rookie cards, both old and new. Question for you - I have a number of high-quality rookie cards that are ungraded. What do you recommend as the best method of getting them graded? I'm looking for good quality but also a good cost-efficient option.
Answer: I'm actually going to do a podcast on this very subject - but I've been pretty consistent with my recommendations over the years.
Question: I have purchased a number of Famous Fabrics First and Second Edition cards but have no idea what they are worth. Please tell me where I can find a price guide for Famous fabrics so I can price them.
Answer: Unfortunately - there isn't a true price guide for the 2010 Famous Fabric Cards. The thing you will have to try and do is research prices on your own. Specifically off eBay - to see what certain cards are ending for.
|Question: Not really very smart when it comes to card collecting, however I recently pulled a Topps 2011 Chrome Brandon Beachy RC auto Atomic Refractor # 10/10, can't find any online yet and am wondering about the possible value of the card?
Answer: It's a very nice card. You are correct - I couldn't find one for sale online - 2011 Chrome just came out so it might take a few more weeks for one to surface on eBay. If I had to guess - dirt cheap would be $100-125. Top of the mark would be $500. It looks like a confirmed sale on a Red Refractor #/25 was $137.00.
If someone offered you $200-250 - that would seem like a fair offer. Continue to monitor eBay because one will probably hit auction within the next few weeks.
|Question: I came across your great website about selling trading cards and distributors. Before viewing your website, I use Southern Hobby Supply. Would you recommend this company for selling online? For instance, I bought Pokemon booster boxes from them and trying to sell them on eBay. It is very difficult because competitors are selling at much lower price than what I bought it for. If you can be of any assistance it would be much appreciated.
Answer: I would recommend Southern Hobby, however finding products to sell on eBay is very difficult no matter what company you go through. Typically the products that you can make a little money on will meet some of these requirements:
#1 Hot Product = Doesn't happen very much because there are so many products & few players catch fire within the hobby. Usually it's a rookie like Stephen Strasburg, Blake Griffin or even this year with Cam Newton that drives prices up because their rookies are valuable.
#2 Discounted Product = Doesn't happen as much as it used to, because there are actually less products than in the past, however we saw plenty of discounts on 09/10 Basketball when Griffin was hurt ... but they all became very hard to find once Blake started playing. Topps baseball boxes sometimes go on discount, and are often go up in price as the hobby boxes dry up.
#3 Gaming = Pokemon & Yu-Gi-Oh are pretty risky, but Magic or MTG cards often sell well because the customer is less sensitive to price because they 'need' the cards in order to play in tournaments ...ect. Finding a kid or someone that can explain the game to you will help - and finding the 'hot' or more rare MTG products will help you sell them later on.
#4 Buy/Hold Premium Product = another risky business, but National Treasures, Five Star Football, SP Authentic & Exquisite boxes sometimes go up in price after 1+ year because most of the boxes have been opened. If there are redemption cards inside - you'll want to sell before they expire, but most 'older' wax with star RC's inside sell well because there is less supply 1+ year later.
In short, there is no 100% way to buy/sell for a consistent product. If there was --- big companies would gladly buy/sell for >5% margins, as some top companies run on >2% margin. Since it's tough to compete on price, try to compete on service ... like getting special orders for customers - or including a pack of soft sleeves with every order. Shipping to Canada/International is another way to get customers - however planning those shipping logistics/costs need to be done before hand.
Hope that helps. When I was doing this full time, I was doing more research on what to buy - than actually buying/selling. I'd spend weeks monitoring prices before I bought something. Usually when I found a good deal, I'd buy a few cases because then I could maximize my profits. Let me know if you have any other questions.
|Question: I opened an 2009-10 UD Basketball Box last night and was pleasantly surprised to find an autograph card in addition to the standard 1 jersey card. This card however is a Michael Jordan Spokesmen Signatures auto SP. There is no pricing or print run in Beckett. I didn't see this series in your Product Reviews. Do you have any information on this?
Answer: As far as value - I would just keep an eye on - or check eBay completed auctions for what Upper Deck Michael Jordan autographs sell for. Ones in a Bulls uniform tend to sell for more. Ones that are on-card will sell for more. A general range for an autograph Upper Deck Jordan card is $300 is dirt cheap - and about $1,000 is top of the mark.
There are some real rare - buyback - UD Exquisite cards that can fetch over $2,000-10,000+ at auction.

A local liquor store was robbed at gunpoint Thursday morning according to the Phillips County Sheriff's Office. Sheriff's deputies were dispatched to Razorback Wine & Spirits, located at 1266 Highway 49 at around 11:30 a.m. Deputies talked with Deloris Anne Worstell, an employee, who reported that a black male armed with a black handgun came into the store and demanded money from the cash register. Worstell added that after giving the man the money, the robber fled toward the trailer park that's located behind the store. The Phillips County Criminal Investigation Unit is currently investigating the incident.

Very nice hosts. The room had all it took to live. Unbeatable for the price.
Everything was clean and towels were also replaced.
The property is located high up on the mountain. By car to the gondola or the bus is already necessary.
Gladly again, thank you.
Sehr nette Gastgeber. Das Zimmer bot alles was nötig war zum Wohnen. Für den Preis unschlagbar.
Alles war sauber und Handtücher wurden auch ausgewechselt.
Die Unterkunft liegt weit oben am Berg. Mit dem Auto zur Gondel oder zum Bus ist schon nötig.
Gerne wieder, danke.
Nice clean well equipped apartment. Very friendly hoists. Would recommend to all my friends.
The Oasis is a wonderful and great accomodation. The house is surrounded by Lemon trees and offers a great view to the sea. It is well equipped, clean and very comfortable for Groups/families up to ten. Highly recommanded.
The place shown on the pictures has an open swimming pool. However if you 're in to reading all the small letters in the massive paper work of Inter Home you Will Read That the pool is open from the 15th of June. What à dissapointment for my daughter. Furthermore we had to pay for the bedlinen on top of the cleaning which was counted pro person. And of course because it was cold we had to pay for the heating although in the living room was no heating system, only in the bath and bedroom. The owners were. Ice although when people arrive in the middle of the night due to their flight it would be nice if there would be something to drink. The garden is large and nice decorated so I think in summer when the pool is open it will be a paradise. For myself I think it is deceive that Wimdu puts this booking through a link connecting to another website. In this way you pay a lot more and you don,'t get what is shown on the pictures. I will never book in this manner again because in the end you pay a lot more.
Wonderful place with great hosts. The apartment is spacious and very clean, the beds are big and comfortable, the kitchen is very well equipped and the balcony offers a superb view of Eiger. We will certainly come back again.
nice sunny apartment, close to mountains, ideal for active holidays close to innsbruck and germany.
a bit 90's furnishing but everything clean and usefull.
Thanks a lot
We had a great time. The accommodation was good, room was clean and complete. It had a nice parking garage, a bit small but fine.
It was no problem that we arrived late in the evening (car trouble). The breakfast service was convenient and good. We had a great view of the mountains and we got some great advice about the area from the landlord.
We would recommend this accommodation to everyone who loves nature. But you do have to travel a bit (25min) for the first big supermarket.
Convenient to 3 metro lines; furnished; pictures of small rooms accurate; elevator. Shelves and dishes grimy; very noisy street (major road to airport) during week; no trash cans; smelly towels poorly laundered; some musty smells throughout; no Internet (borrowed from neighbor, though).
First of all, I was a little nervous because I had plenty of doubts and the agency didn't answer me, in that point very bad customer service I can't believe they take like one week to answer a customer email... Anyway one week before our arrival our host finally could contact me and I talked to her. Luckly Montse was a Spanish woman and we could understand each other very good. Despite we had problems in our arrival, she was very kind and understood everything, made everything very easy and was very flexible about the arriving time. She really cared about us, offering herself for any help we could need (finding supermakets, places to eat, and useful information) we are really grateful about that:)
About the house, 10-15 min walk from Piazza San Marco, good location, very close to important places and easy to find (difficult in Venice..) the house is exactly as described in the pictures, one big sofa-bed (very comfortable) one bedroom, the kitchen, bathroom and a small terrace. Despite was a little bit small apartment was very nice, comfortable and charming.
Against: it wasn't very cleaned, some dirty in the corners and under the sofa and furniture. I don't understand why we had to pay 20€ per person for cleaning taxes and other taxes when they left us the apartment not as cleaned as they could...
The oven didn't work (or we didn't know how to turn it on... Neither our host) and half of the stoves didn't work, and the ones who did was very low fire and we took ages to cook and to get the water to boil.
The other think I didn't like (but this isn't problem of the house) is that even is well located, it's pretty far from the train station, like 40 min walking, 1hour if you are taking luggage, so the best thing is to take the vaporetto and its 40 min more or less and 7,50€ each trip. It's not a really big deal but a think to take on count if money is a struggle for you. You'll do it if you are going to Treviso airport.
Anyway, we had a very nice time then, if I go back to Venice, I would repeat for sure! :)
In the apartment, it is calm at night in spite of it's central location and insufficient windows' sound proofing.
Also insufficient is room lighting, shutters of the kitchen cabinet are not arranged well, there is mold in the shower cabin.
But the Fountain Trevi district is an excellent place in Rome, and if you are not very captious you will enjoy this place to stay.
