TEMPE, Ariz. -
For baseball season ticket holders: Season ticket holders have the opportunity to purchase up to 2 tickets for at least the first ASU game. They can do so by calling the Sun Devil Ticket Office at 480-727-0000 by 5 p.m. this evening. Season ticket holders will be notified Tuesday if they have received their tickets.
How many tickets does ASU get?
ASU receives more tickets for the single game sessions (games 1-8 and possibly 11) then for the doubleheader sessions. This is because the NCAA has to provide an equal amount of seats to every team, and since the doubleheader sessions include four teams instead of two the amount of available tickets is cut in half.
What is the cost of the seats if we get tickets?
Session Tickets are $18 each
Championship round are $25 each
Where are the seats located?
The majority of the visiting team tickets are Sections A, B, and E (first-base side) and the home team tickets are in Sections N, O, and P (third-base side).
Tickets will be in Will Call for each game in which ASU plays.
What do I do if I only get the first sessions tickets?
If you are able to purchase tickets for the first game ASU plays only, you will also be able to purchase tickets to the Championship rounds, if ASU qualifies.
If you qualify to purchase all games, you will be charged for every subsequent game that ASU plays in.
For our fans who are not baseball season ticket holders: Non-season ticket holders will need to go to www.cwsomaha.com and purchase tickets through the College World Series organization itself.
Please call the Sun Devil Ticket Office at 480-727-0000 if you have any further questions.

Biz Picture - Recap of the week's top business stories
Published: Saturday, August 24, 2013 at 4:24 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, August 24, 2013 at 4:24 p.m.
Housing recovery among weakest
WILMINGTON | Though home prices have risen 13 percent,
">Wilmington's climb out of the housing downturn
">Wilmington's climb out of the housing downturnis among the 20 weakest in the nation, according to a research company's new recovery index.
RealtyTrac looked at 100 metropolitan areas to gauge how they were recovering from the housing downturn. Wilmington, scoring a 92, came in the bottom 20.
By far the strongest was Rochester, N.Y., with 217.
Port City attracting mattress stores
WILMINGTON | Mattress stores have been springing up around town in growing numbers.
Many attribute the jump to an improving housing market and others to the ready supply of college students circulating in and out of apartments yearly.
Consumer habits have changed as well and mattress innovations are helping to drive the sector higher, experts say.
Those factors have made Wilmington strong enough to attract national mattress retailers that have opened up alongside local chains and individual stores.
City council relaxes food truck rules
WILMINGTON | After months of study and review, Wilmington food trucks will now have more freedom to operate inside the city.
Last week the city council voted unanimously to approve new food truck rules designed to loosen restrictions on the trucks while accommodating the concerns of existing restaurants.
Although some downtown restaurant owners initially expressed concerns about loosening food truck rules, officials worked out a compromise to mollify them.
Barber school offers free haircuts
WILMINGTON | Since earlier this year, Cape Fear Community College has operated a barber training program out of the Emerald Square Shopping Center at 3333 Wrightsville Ave.
The 12- to-14-month course includes both classroom studies and hands-on training.
A big part of the program is actually cutting hair, shaving and practicing dyeing on real human beings.
The school cheerfully recruits volunteers to sit for students in what amounts to a cut-price, walk-in barber shop, with two rows of clean, well-lighted chairs.
The shop, complete with waiting area and magazines, is open from 10:30 a.m. to 3:45 p.m. Monday through Thursday.
Oyster industry revival in the works
WILMINGTON | A small group of scientists and growers is laying the groundwork to revive the industry by cultivating oysters in cages and bags.
So far, oyster aquaculture has produced modest returns in North Carolina, accounting for less than 21 percent of a $2.9 million oyster industry.
But proponents look north to Virginia to show what's possible. There, the state has invested heavily in developing strains of oysters that do well in aquaculture, and production from oyster growers has increased by more than 35 times since 2005.

After decades of ignoring the differences between men and women, some hospitals are smartening up and offering programs specifically tailored to the health issues of women our age. Here, the top spots for treatment—and, if these facilities are too distant, advice on finding the best programs near you
Heart Disease: Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Los Angeles
After her own research documented problematic gender differences in the symptoms and outcomes of heart disease, cardiologist C. Noel Bairey Merz, MD, founded the Women's Heart Center at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, the largest nonprofit hospital in the western U.S. Last year, the WHC also opened an Advanced Preventive Women's Clinic for women with menopause symptoms who have or who are at risk of heart disease.
The goal for both the clinic and the heart center is to quickly translate state-of-the-art science to women's care. For example, the Women's Ischemic Syndrome Evaluation study, led by Bairey Merz, found that women who have an abnormal stress test and chest pain but no serious artery plaques are nonetheless prone to heart attacks. Though women in that category are usually assured by their doctors that all is well, at Cedars-Sinai these patients are now given a coronary angiogram to further investigate their condition.
What to look for closer to home Check out the government's Web site, hospitalcompare.hhs.gov, to find institutions meeting widely accepted standards for heart care (such as giving most heart attack patients angioplasty within 90 minutes of ER arrival). Look for a place that employs cardiologists dedicated to treating women, sponsors conferences on women's heart health, and maybe even underwrites gender-based research, says New York cardiology specialist Nieca Goldberg.
Bone Health: NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital, New York
Women with clear evidence of osteoporosis are generally treated with drugs. But experts can disagree on how to handle patients who show signs of bone thinning that hasn't reached a critical stage—a category that includes many postmenopausal women. That's why personalized care is offered at the Toni Stabile Osteoporosis Center at Columbia University's NewYork-Presbyterian. With 10 researcher-physicians on salary, "We have the luxury of scheduling 60-minute appointments for new patients, with 30-minute follow-ups," says director Ethel Siris, MD.
Because the doctors are aware of or, in some cases, have conducted the latest women's bone research, they understand the nuances involved in interpreting the bone density tests performed by the center's four DXA machines. (The center also has an experimental imager called the high-resolution pQCT.) "We evaluate the full DXA report hot off the printer, not just the summary," Siris says, so the physicians can detect any (rare) machine errors that don't make sense. The data, combined with other risk factors, helps them decide whether a woman needs medication.
What to look for closer to home Because the doctor's judgment plays a key role in making the right treatment decisions, you want a facility with a dedicated bone health program. Inquire, too, if the technicians who conduct the DXA scans are certified by the International Society for Clinical Densitometry. "Problems in the positioning and quality of measurements—which affect treatment decisions—are more likely with someone who doesn't do these scans regularly," says Subhash Kukreja, MD, codirector of the bone health program at the University of Illinois Medical Center.

Although many incredible electro artists are based in Europe (like Justice, Daft Punk and Breakbot), America's Big Gigantic is living proof we don't have to go abroad to see an amazing electro concert.
Hailing from Boulder, Colo., Big Gigantic's Dominic Lalli (producer/sax) and Jeremy Salken (drums) lived up to its name in a major way when they closed out The Backyard stage at the Firefly Music Festival on Sunday at midnight.
With a bevy of ice cream-colored lights radiating from the stage onto Salken, Lalli and a horde of smitten festivalgoers waving glow sticks, Big Gigantic dished out lovely tunes from its latest album, "Nocturnal," an intergalactic journey that binds dubstep, hip-hop and jazz elements together. Tunes off the album included the title track, as well as "The Heavyweight Champion" and "Rise and Shine." Big Gigantic also tossed in a few remixes like its bass-wobbling rendition of Jay-Z's "Can I Get A…," its synthy version of Aloe Blacc's "I Need A Dollar" and a jazzy take on Macklemore's new single, "Can't Hold Us."
What really separates Big Gigantic from most electronic artists is Salken and Lalli actually play live instruments over their electronic tunes, which allows the audience to develop an even stronger connection with them because you can feel and see that not all of their music is manufactured. Lalli and Salken were noticeably drenched in sweat at Firefly, which is uncommon for an electro act that's performing at midnight when the sun isn't beaming down on them. But that speaks to the dedication and passion that Big Gigantic really brings to its shows.
It's also a big indicator for why the Colorado duo recently reached 100,000 likes on Facebook just a few months ago.

As if it's not bad enough that we live in a country where crony capitalism is so entrenched that the oligarchs never face justice and are consistently bailed out on the tax payers' dime, but now we have to suffer from oligarchs using their fortunes to buy-off elections all over the country. I am specifically referring to one of the biggest hypocrites alive today, New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg and his Super PAC, Independence USA. I want to highlight two recent stories in order to demonstrate exactly what this particular oligarch is up to. First, from a recent Washington Post article:
It's a bad day when New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg's political action committee rolls into town to take you on.
Former congresswoman Debbie Halvorson (D-Ill.) is finding that out the hard way right now, as she suffers from a barrage of ads from the super PAC, also known as Independence USA.
The PAC, which has backed gun control supporters and targeted those who oppose it, regardless of party, has so far spent about 20 times the amount Halvorson has been able to raise for her campaign in the special election to replace former congressman Jesse Jackson Jr. (D-Ill.). While Halvorson has raised just about $100,000, Independence USA has spent $2.16 million against her, citing her 'A' rating from the NRA.
So because "Your Highness" Bloomberg doesn't like guns (except when it's the people protecting him that have them), he overwhelms an Illinois election with money to defeat the pro-gun candidate. The outcome? She lost. This is what Bloomie had to say in the aftermath:


text:
Every fight out is must see for Amir Khan, because fight fans perceive that the Brit is iffy chinned, that he could get dropped and stop at any time, and that any fight could be his last.
The 26 year-old Bolton, England pug was last seen getting stopped in round four against Danny Garcia in Vegas in July. Since then, much has been made of his switch, subbing in Virgil Hunter for Freddie Roach. Khan made waves and drew some scorn when he went public with the word that he fears his Parkinson's has diminished Roach, and is telling the world that the switch in tutors will pay massive dividends. But you know the old saying--you can't train a chin.
Can Carlos Molina, a 17-0-1 (with just 7 KOs) hitter from Cali whose best win isn't easy to discern, test that chin in a bout which will run on Showtime? I'm doubtful of that but will of course tune in to make sure.
Khan sounded of solid mind on a recent conference call. "You will see a new Amir Khan come into this fight. I just want to say that the training that I've been doing with Virgil Hunter has been going great, (I'm working) on new techniques and new skills and (I will be) a totally different fighter," he said. "I'm excited to show you all what the new Amir Khan is going to be like, but yes, training has been tough and hard."
Khan, even with that cheatin' chin, which is prone to extreme acts of disloyalty, should be able to get a W over Molina, but he sounds like he's not looking past the greener guy. "We know we're up against a tough Carlos Molina, and we know what it's like to fight and be inside, because they're very confident and we're not taking this fight lightly," Khan said. "We've taken it very seriously; especially because we know that Carlos is going to come into the fight very confident after my last fight."
For the record, this Molina is NOT the 19-4-2 fighter who took on James Kirkland in March. That Carlos Molina is from Texas, and is of a higher skill-grade. Or is he? This Molina is telling all that he will gain respect come Saturday night. "I know a lot of people see me as the underdog, but man, little do they know that we're going to shock everybody on that night," he said.
It's not like he outright slammed Roach on the call, but all Khan's talk of defense could be argued is a knock on Dedham Freddie. In prior fights, Khan said, "We made mistakes when we usually go in there and it's like there's no defense and jumping into a war when we don't need to have a war and the game plan going out the window and me getting over confident and just whereas if I just stick to the game plan more....So that's why I've been working with Virgil and Virgil is a great trainer defensively as well. We've been working on a lot of new defenses, which I think will help me in this fight."
The contrast between Hunter and Roach is hard to miss. "We've been doing a lot of holding work as well like teaching me when you are hurt, what you have to do if you're holding, using these things. Virgil sees a fight the way it should go and if you're making mistakes, he'll pull you up on them, and tell you how to change your style and stuff," Khan said. "Also when we're working in the gym together, we've changed a lot of stuff, which is the defense, working a lot on the defensive side, something I've always wanted to work on with a trainer...It will take me to a different level seeing things better and also defending a lot of shots where I was normally just moving and whereas now I can block them. I know exactly what to do, and come the fight, you will see (a new) Amir Khan and you'll see a very settled and very mature fighter."
The story of this fight: addition by subtraction. Khan has removed Freddie Roach from the equation, added Virgil Hunter and is hoping that the switch will rejuvenate a career which is standing on a thin sheet of ice. Tune in to see if the ice holds, or if Khan gets cracked and his career prospects drown.

Gotta love Kahn but his mouth is writing checks at a rate his *** (and chin) can't keep up with. If he loses this fight he'll look like a bigger jackass than he would have had he been quiet and split the blame with Coach Roach.
I doubt that he losts this bout. But a trainer, just as a style, will make the difference. Holla!
Take "Iron" Mike Tyson, for instance. With Kevin Rooney, the iron one had the right style and trainer. MT dumped KR, and he went down eventually all the way to "Not-worth-syet" Mike Tyson.
I don't know if Virgil Hunter is the right match that will strike fire for Khan and get him to burn through opponents like SOG, but we will see.
Hunter may just turn out to be the guru of religious warriors. SOG is a practicing Christain. Khan is a practicing Muslim. Rumor mills is claiming that Hunter will soon have a practicing Jew -- my Israeli cousin -- and Buddhist, another one of my cousins. Hehehe! It is a small world. Holla!
did the trainer give khan a chin transplant? hunter will match khan against very short dudes so he can use his jab and win on points and extend his career. when khan is matched tough we will see the real khan.
Hehehe! Deepwater, wow! You got that ability to make a person crack up laughing in a New york minute. "Iron" Mike Tyson may wanna use you to open up his shows. Holla!
@radam ur right,fights are won and lost in the corner
I like Khan but he talks too much, I think he wins this fight as long as he fights smart. I would like to see him beat Garcia in a rematch.
I think Khan chin is better then what you seen in the Garcia fight I think part of the problem is he's still fighting at 140 he really needs to move up. I remember when Cotto kept trying to make 140 he was getting hurt in every fight. But once he moved to 147 he was able to take punches from guys like Shane Mosley ect. But let's see what happens Sat Molina is not a big puncher if he get hurtby this guy he really needs to move up asap.
Danggit! SCLA Ali! Got jiggy wif it? He's talking righteous on dat. Khan is a dead man walking at 140lbs. Maybe he will one day get Pretty Danny Boy at 147lbs. But I doubt at 140lbs. Holla!
Khan is enjoying his honeymoon. Anyone outside your tired routine is sexy....but, when go time comes around, character is destiny, and character plus iffy chin = future journeyman. Khan lacks patience, he is impulsive and not especially bright, does not see punches coming but rather relies on busy-ness, quick punches and excess offensive movement to offset his opponent, and his few new Hunter tricks will not result in anything different during show time. I'll put big money on Khan being KOd again sometime in his next five fights.
Who will win the Sergey Kovalev vs Andre Ward fight?

English backpacker Holly Marsh, 20, from Hertfordshire, relaxes in some shade in King George Square as temperatures hit 35 degrees on Saturday, Jan. 19. Photo: Michelle Smith
Brisbane's CBD resembled a ghost town Saturday as citydwellers and visitors alike searched out air conditioning and bodies of water.
Brisbane reached 35.4 degrees, more than six above average, while Ipswich sweltered under 40.2 degree heat.
The Gold and Sunshine Coasts, buffeted by a cooling sea breeze just topped 32 degrees.
Too hot for most - King George Square, Brisbane City was deserted today as temperatures hit 35 degrees in the city. Photo: Michelle Smith
But that might be it for a while in terms of stifling hot weather, Bureau of Meteorology forecaster Matthew Bass said, although don't expect to see any rain for quite a while.
"Around the Christmas period was when it did rain the most last and we have had this big dome of hot dry air over the interior which has been effecting us as well," Mr Bass said, explaining where the hot weather had sprung from.
"But over the last couple of days we have started to see a monsoon develop up north so generally when that happens we see a lot more activity across Queensland, particularly in the north.
South Bank should be a popular place this weekend, with the mercury tipped to soar. Photo: Michelle Smith
"On Friday and Saturday we might start seeing some showers. There still isn't going to be heaps in it but that is the first chance we are getting a bit more of activity, weather wise."
Which means cooler temperatures.
"We are moving into slightly cooler conditions over the coming days ," he said.
"Brisbane is looking at 32 and that will drop even further on Monday and Tuesday back down to 30 and from Thursday onwards we are looking at temps even down to 29 degrees."
But with the monsoons in the interior comes humidity, so while the air temperature may appear lower on the mercury, Queensland can expect to feel sticky for a few more weeks.

The late sun threw deep oranges and pinks across the plump westbound clouds. Twelve- to 14-foot lumps of sea lifted, shifted and morphed in crimson hues. The colors faded into grays, and I went below to see what could be salvaged from the bottom of the icebox for dinner.
Partway through the nauseating scavenge I poked my head out of the hatch to scan the horizon. For the first time in eight days, the movement of something other than water caught my attention. As I fixed my eyes where I'd thought I'd seen it, a school of bottlenose dolphins suddenly leapt from a swell face in unison. Over and over they breached the glowing surface, leaping toward Swell in a manner that rivaled the glee of a room full of fifth graders on their last day of school.
They came upon us in extended, airborne bounds with exaggerated trajectories that seemed to produce a liberating burst of forward progress over the wrinkled sea. Simultaneously, Swell's fiberglass hull surfed down the following seas at 9-10 knots with the momentum of a locomotive. The dolphins seemed utterly thrilled at their newfound company. They bounded again and again from the sea in high arcs, squealing, twisting, spinning and crisscrossing up to the bow, then circled back to ride the next ocean swell alongside us. In rows like line dancers, they'd torpedo out of the swell face together, their robust bodies shimmering in the evening's pink, then charge up to the bow for more flips and speed jukes.
A crash below startled me from the visual bliss. The mildewed head of cabbage, knife and cutting board had tumbled to the galley floor below. I jumped to my feet but left the mess for later, unhooked the helm from the self-steering vane, and took the wheel to better maneuver my 40-foot surfboard alongside my new surf buddies. Bracing my feet against the sides of the cockpit floor, I gripped the wheel and trimmed into the pockets of the endless open-ocean waves.
Swell and I glided as one. I leaned into the turns and grinned at my leaping comrades. Despite being 1,300 miles from the nearest coast, we delighted together in the joy of wave-riding at that moment. As night stole the remaining color from the scene, the dolphins turned and continued north out of sight. I bid them safe travels, gave the steering duties back to my faithful windvane, and met that busted head of cabbage on the floor flushed with newfound optimism.

ZF-3510: Best Practice & PHP IDE Compatability Improvement
On line 81 of /Zend/Validate/Barcode.php (@version $Id: Barcode.php 8211 2008-02-20 14:29:24Z darby $) we have the following code:
require_once 'Zend/Validate/Barcode/' . $className . '.php';
This is not IDE friendly (I'm using Zend Studio for Eclipse) as there is a variable in the include and therefore the IDE cannot locate the file.
I propose that the include is moved into the switch statement so that the variable $className is no longer needed. I suppose this is a slight compromise to the DRY methodoloy however I think it is worth it. Also, although using the variable in the include looks to be secure, it is bad practice.
Fixed with r14042

vFabric Enterprise Ready Server
Application Monitoring for Custom Web Applications
VMware vFabric™ Enterprise Ready Server (ERS) is a widely distributed Apache HTTP Server package that provides enterprise-level performance, scalability and security while reducing the cost and complexity of sophisticated web infrastructures.
VMware has announced that no further orders for VMware vFabric Enterprise Ready Server ("ERS") will be accepted beginning July 1, 2013, the End of Availability ("EOA") date for ERS. VMware has also announced that maintenance services for ERS will cease on July 1, 2014, the End of General Support ("EOGS") date; and all technical support services for ERS will cease on July 1, 2015, the End of Support Life ("EOSL") date.
All ERS customers are encouraged to convert or deploy Pivotal Web Server, the product that replaces the ERS bundle. Web Server has been integrated with the latest open source runtimes, security patches and bug fixes, as well as adding new product features that better serve enterprise customers deploying applications across virtualized and cloud environments.
ERS customers with perpetual licenses and active support and subscription agreements (SnS) are entitled to a one-time $0 conversion to Pivotal Web Server and open source Apache Tomcat Support. ERS customers with term licenses are eligible to convert to equivalent Pivotal Web Server term licenses at the same price as ERS for HTTP term license and optionally add Apache Tomcat support or Pivotal tc Server licenses.
For detailed pricing please contact a Reseller or vFabric ERS expert.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: When do I need to convert to or purchase Web Server?
A: You have until your active SnS agreement or subscription runs out.
Q: I want to move to Web Server now, but I have paid for an SnS agreement for ERS. What happens to the remaining SnS?
A: The existing terms of your remaining time on SnS will be converted for an equivalent period of SnS for the Pivotal Web Server and Apache Tomcat support product. This will be a one-to-one exchange, a translation of the value of your existing SnS to the destination product's SnS price, which is the same.
Q: I want to move to Web Server now, but I have paid for a term license for ERS. What happens to the remaining duration on my term license?
A: Your existing subscription will remain in effect until the end of the active term of your contract. You should consider purchasing the discounted perpetual Pivotal Web Server licenses and appropriate SnS at the time of renewal of your current ERS term license to avoid any subscription overlap.
Q: I have an existing deployment that is going to grow this year. Will I be able to purchase additional ERS licenses after July 1, 2013?
A: No, no additional ERS licenses can be purchased after this date. We recommend you consider using Web Server.
Q: I have term licenses that expire after July 1, 2013 but before July 1, 2014. Will I be able to renew them after July 1, 2013?
A: No, after July 1, 2013 existing customers who need to renew their term licenses will have to convert to Pivotal Web Server term license. Additional Pivotal Web Server term licenses can be purchased at or after the conversion.
Q: After July 1, 2014, if I have an active SnS agreement, will I be able to get patches for my current ERS deployment?
A: No, updates, patches and bug fixes would only be issued prior to July 1, 2014. However, it's been three years since the last release of ERS, therefore, the product is considered generally very stable.
Q: Can I continue to use ERS after the end of support?
A: Yes, if your licenses are perpetual licenses, you have the right to use them as long as you like, however no support, updates or additional licenses will be available. If you have term licenses, you only have the right to use the licenses until your term expires.
Q: How do I convert my existing ERS instances to Pivotal Web Server and Pivotal tc Server?
A: For technical documentation on how to upgrade to Web Server and tc Server from ERS, see the Migrating Enterprise Ready Server to Pivotal Web Server Guide, Run an ERS Tomcat Instance on tc Server, and Migrating an ERS Server Instance to tc Server Guide.

Long read for a long weekend.
It was a pretty good weekend for us. We headed down Wednesday night with me pulling my camper and JeepM715 was pulling his buggy and the racer on his trailer. We left Fenton somewhere after 8pm and made it to the Badlands at 2:30am. I remember looking at my phone at 3am as I climbed into bed.
We had an appointment with Wayne (ZukIzzy) to tune our shocks on Thursday morning. We ended up making two huge adjustments, and two small adjustments on the shocks and bumped up the front bumps from 50psi to 100. The car was running great and we were excited for Saturday's race. We didn't put a GPS in the car to see how fast we were going, but the improvement was huge.
Friday morning we nut and bolted the car and found a few big things like the trans mount studs had fallen out and that caused the motor mount bushings to allow the engine to drop an inch or so and smashed out headers on the cyl #2 tube plus a few other minor dents. Plus a few loose jam nuts and the standard stuff you'd expect. We found a few bolts and got the trans mount sorted and then went to a neighbor's camp where JeepM715 welded some washers on the engine mounts to get it more solidly mounted for the race.
We spent the afternoon prerunning the course, which was short. We were doing laps in what seemed to be 5 minutes. In the last lap, Jesse noticed a lack of power climbing a sand hill, but we didn't think much of it. We cleaned up the car for the parade down town and checked for codes and found a TPS and coil code. We cleared codes and the coil code didn't come back, but the TPS did. We went to swap the TPS from JeepM715's buggy, but of course the connector was different. The parts stores were closed, so we figured we would just head to the parade and buy & swap the TPS in the morning.
Saturday morning we were at the parts store as they opened. The computer didn't list a 2006 Express 6.0 cable throttle TPS, only ETC. The guy said the GM dealer was open, so we went down there and worked with them, and eventually we figured out that the 4.3 and 6.0 non-ETC had the same TPS. So JeepM715 bought it and we went back to camp.
We put it in the car, and it still ran like crap. The driver's meeting was at 9:15, so JeepM715 went to that while I struggled to figure out what was going on. While I was checking stuff out, Jason from PAC springs stopped by to see how it was going. I was wiggling wires on the PCM and it got slightly better. Then Jason wiggled it on the engine compartment side and it started running perfectly. More wiggling and it was crap. So I start pulling the harness through the firewall and Jason spots chaffed wires. It looked like at some point the grommet had come loose, and it was direct rubbing on the wires to metal.
By the time JeepM715 got back from the driver's meeting I had the harness patched up "good enough" and found a small piece of radiator hose to further shield the wires running through the firewall. The jeep was running great. We turned it off and started to prep for a test drive before the race. We tried to restart and it wouldn't turn over.
We bang clanged on the starter, double checked everything we could and decided the starter must have died. It was the junkyard starter, so other than being 1.5 hours before race start, we weren't suprised. JeepM715 started unbolting enough exhaust to be able to drop the starter while I went and picked up a new one.
When I got back trailrail302 had stopped by and was helping JeepM715 get the starter out and let us borrow extra extensions and a small impact. He had to take off when I got back, but we managed to get the starter in and all buttoned up by 11:45 and the mad scramble was on to get into safety gear and get to the start line. Without trailrail's help, we wouldn't have made it. Thanks!
As we were heading to what we thought was the start line, we passed hosejockey who said there was noone there. He had been looking around for everybody, but couldn't find them. After a tour of the park, we finally lined up behind Hosejockey to be the 8th and final starter in 15 second intervals.
The race was muddy as hell. We burned through a roll of paper towels in the first half of the race, and I spent the last half trying to keep reasonably dry and mud free towels for JeepM715 to wipe his shield with. In sections low on water, I would raise my visor and help guide him through sections so he wouldn't get mud in his eyes and cause us to stop.
The first few laps we spent some time following people and making passes and trying to keep the car together. It looked to be a war of attrition, so we knew we needed to go reasonably quick, but not break the car.
On lap 12 of 16 we caught up to Hosejockey. On one of the laps we passed him, but then he passed us back in the next lap or so. Since we had started last, we decided to tuck in behind him and try and make sure we crossed the finish line within the 15 second time between us. We figured it was better to chase and let him make a mistake than the other way around.
On lap 15 the white flag came out. We were following Hosejockey and we were excited that we should be able to follow him and take the win. As we pulled up to the checkpoint, they pointed at our tire and said we had a flat. We must have cut it just before getting in the sand bowl. We took off after Hosejockey, but he quickly pulled away as we missed turns because the front flat caused the car to push so badly.
JeepM715 kept up the pace as much as he could, hoping no one would catch us and drop us back further. We managed to limp in for the checkers in 2nd place. Not bad for almost not making it to the start line.
official timing here:
Thanks to DTS for the parts that rebuilt the Dana 60, PAC springs for sponsoring the shock tuning and getting Wayne out to the Badlands and the proper harness wiggle, Sign-A-Rama for getting us numbers that you could read, Johnny Quest & Trailrail302 (and his father in law) for loaning us tools to get the rig patched up. And Betty for keeping the conversation interesting.
Anybody have a hook up for a 37 MTR?

Nice job boys. Nothing like a little adversity to keep you in the game. Although I've heard more than once (during a long truck ride) that a car should not need last minute major repairs.
It's cool to see both of the local teams fighting it out. Congrats.

I had looked at the grommet before we left and it appeared seated. We had loomed all of the wiring except under the dash. So we had lots of hands on the wiring over the past month trying to prevent something like this. When we change motor mounts, I will find a better grommet that can't pop out. This seems to be the weak part of the car's wiring, along with the crappy switches. Both can be fixed.
As for the starter, shit happens and part wear out. It wasn't giving us warning, and it may have been the switches causing the problem. The new starter definitely sounds better than the old, so it's hard to say.
Tuning was hard on the car. Our shocks were hot to the touch while tuning. Lots of banging on the car, probably as tough as the race, especially on the early passes where the car was banging through the test section pretty hard.
One thing we need to do before the next race is find better switches. We have found the winch switch dead after each race and that's not good. We think the starter switch might be flaking out too.
We knew this year would be a tough year where we find all of the car's problems. Hopefully we can keep them from DNF'ing us.

its a timed event they just had to finish within ten seconds of me to beat me.
it sucks starting in the back but in reality i like it because you know if you are in front they cant beat you on time
I was surprised when they caught me and was worried they were going to win on time, I lost my intercoms half way through the race and then lost my copilot (whos intercom was still working and he was talking to the pits) when he decided to eat his breakfast again. so i had no idea what place is was in and who was on my tail.

There's loads of shinies circulating wifi now, and I doubt if even half of them are legit. (I got scammed over a shiny ninetales )
There's loads of shinies circulating wifi now, and I doubt if even half of them are legit. (I got scammed over a shiny ninetales )
That sucks. I don't even trade off Wi-Fi unless we make plans to trade.
Wifi can be pretty profitable. But one good thing is that you get many pokemon with different IDs, that makes the lottery draw at the TV station almost a certain win.
10 PP ups for free.
It's guaranteeded that you'll win once you've traded around for a while.
last digit match= new background
2 digits match= PP up
3 digits match= Exp share
At least, that's what I remember. If you've done about 15 trades, you'll have almost every number the last digit of at least one of the pokemon. So winning a new background has about a 90% chance.
2 digits isn't hard, you'll start striking around 30 trades or so.
3 digits and the rest is luck.
I'm hoping to get a masterball one day.
Oh, and the numbers for the lottery aren't infinitely random. How do I explain this.....well, let's jut say that I won 5 PP ups from this piplup named Jeffery. Yes, the number is drawn again and again. So my guess is that the game picks a umber of random sequences
13564, 42824, 83042, 10582, 84748, 39238, 32494
And then everyday the guy will draw one out of those sequences. The number drawn HAS to be one of those. so once you get a pokemon with the numbers ending 38, you'll get a PP up whenever 39238.
If not, I find it hard to see how the same pokemon could win me 5 times in a row, and others too. I'm waiting for the day when I get the pokemon with all the matching numbers. It's be about 1 mastrball in every 5 days. Heaven.
Note that this is all my deduction though, it isn't really proven on any website.
I've never actually caught a shiny or even encountered one in the wild, but on wifi someone traded me a shiny roselia nicknamed "blackrose." I evolved it and then traded it to someone else. it was pretty cool looking, but I didn't really need it other than to complete my pokedex because I was too lazy to catch one myself on my sapphire version. jesus christ that's a terrible run-on sentence
ive had a shiny weedle and a shiny castform that i saw/caught in the wild. is all.
i rememebr seeing a purple drowzee or whatever is outside golden rod city on silver, didnt catch it cuz i thought it was a glitch
I encountered my first legit shiny yesterday. It was a Kricketune. I tried to catch it, but accidentally knocked it out.
I once completed a Gold game with a Shiny cheat. All the Pokemon I saw in the wild were Shiny's. It was a very sparkly run-through.
The man in black fled across the desert, and the gunslinger followed.
~The Dark Tower I: The Gunslinger; The Dark Tower VII: The Dark Tower

Saw a shiny tentacool once in ruby... Then realized I didn't have any pokéballs... That sucked... Why do I have a feeling that a shiny Butterfree is pink?
That's because a shiny Butterfree is pink.
By the way, have you checked the date on this thread? The last post was almost four years ago...

Genetically targeted drugs aim to disrupt the growth and spread of cancer cells. Normally, your body's cells divide in a controlled manner, but with cancer, some cells go crazy and clone themselves rapidly. Often the clones form tumors, and those tumors, if not removed in time, may send out colonies of cloned cells that multiply relentlessly in other parts of the body. Think of what happens when a virus corrupts your computer.
Each cancerous cell's behavior is governed by instructions it receives from a protein, which in turn takes its orders from a mutated gene. One simple example of a cancer-causing mutation happens when the ends of chromosomes 22 and 9 break off and trade places. The product of this bizarre translocation, known as the Philadelphia chromosome, creates a protein that signals white blood cells to reproduce unchecked, causing a disease called chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML).
Gleevec is a drug designed to inhibit this mutation, which is found in all CML patients. In the drug's first clinical trial, 53 out of 54 patients experienced complete remission, making Gleevec arguably the most successful targeted medication in existence. It is also one of the earliest: Gleevec came on the market in 2001. Nearly two thirds of the clinical trial's original patients stayed on it. About 17 percent developed resistance within five years, and many were shifted to a second-generation drug, on which they are still being maintained.
One reason Gleevec is so successful is that it targets "the best and most well-defined molecular abnormality known in oncology," according to its developer, Brian Druker, MD, of Oregon Health and Science University. Most other cancers result from several constantly changing mutations, which makes them much more difficult to treat. So the future of cancer therapy lies in cocktails of different drugs, which may combine a targeted drug with either a traditional chemotherapy or another type of cutting-edge approach, or both. The goal is to turn cancer into a chronic disease like AIDS, giving patients a more or less normal life span, provided they continue to take the appropriate drugs.
The new normal versus the old normal
Kari Worth of Napa, California, now 46, had staved off stage 4 melanoma for six years, but in 2009 the cancer recurred. By that time, two miracle drugs had been introduced. The first was ipilimumab, a form of immunotherapy that harnesses the patient's immune system to attack the disease. The second was vemurafenib, a targeted drug aimed at the BRAFmutation in skin cells that's evident in half the patients with melanoma.
"The great majority of patients who have the BRAF mutation respond to the targeted drug vemurafenib within a few weeks," says University of California, Los Angeles, oncologist Antoni Ribas. Early tests of vemurafenib produced astonishing results: Melanoma tumors shrank and even vanished; patients got out of their wheelchairs and walked again. But after six or seven months, on average, the tumors began to reappear, for different reasons. Sometimes tumors developed new mutations or other alterations; other times the cancer cells found ways to evade the drug. In short, says Ribas, vemurafenib works for a lot of patients, but its benefits are often "not durable."
In contrast, he notes, "the immunity drug ipilimumab gives a benefit to just a small proportion of melanoma patients, but that improvement tends to be lasting." So oncologists have been testing a combination of these two drugs, both of which are approved by the FDA and are on the market. "We're developing a whole bunch of clinical trials that try to improve both agents," says Ribas. New trials either combine vemurafenib with the immunotherapy drug or pair it with a newer drug that targets another mutation, potentially thwarting the development of resistance and also decreasing side effects.
