Vinod grew up dreaming of being an entrepreneur. He was raised in an Indian Army household with no business or technology connections. When, at age 16, he first heard about Intel, he dreamt of starting his own technology
company. Upon graduating with a Bachelors in Electrical Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi, he tried to start a soy milk company to service the many people in India who did not have refrigerators. He then came to
the US and got his Masters in Biomedical Engineering at Carnegie-Mellon University. His startup dreams attracted him to Silicon Valley where he got an MBA at Stanford University in 1980. In 1982, Khosla started Sun Microsystems to build
workstations for software developers. At Sun he pioneered "open systems" and RISC processors. Sun was funded by long time friend and board member John Doerr of Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers. In 1986 he switched sides and joined
Kleiner Perkins where he was a general partner. There, he worked with Nexgen/AMD, Juniper, Excite, and many other ventures. In 2004, Khosla formed Khosla Ventures. Khosla Ventures offers venture assistance, strategic advice and capital to
entrepreneurs. The firm helps entrepreneurs extend the potential of their ideas in both traditional venture areas like the Internet, computing, mobile, and silicon technology arenas but also supports breakthrough scientific work in clean
technology areas such as bio-refineries for energy and bioplastics, solar, battery and other environmentally friendly technologies.

Before I turned 40, I never went on a diet. But since my 40th birthday, I've rarely been off one. Losing weight can make you look and feel younger. Just beware you don't act older while you're getting there.
DON'T BE ON A PERENNIAL DIET – Always on a diet, yet never at the weight you want to be? Yup, that's me, and I suspect it's a lot of you too. But dieting for decades on end and never being thin thing isn't just old, it's depressing. Younger (and more cheering): Work hard to get to the weight you want to be. Then stay there. (Please note: I know this is excellent advice. I just can't manage to follow it.)
DON'T WALK – I walk, alone or with my girlfriends. And we're not alone. All over America, middle-aged women in running shoes and lite exercise gear are walking on streets or in parks or on tracks or in malls, to exercise and lose weight. It's fun, it's easy, it's free . . . but it's not that effective at knocking the pounds off. Walking burns 130 calories an hour, less than eating at 140! Younger (and more effective) exercises: Tae bo, Bollywood dancing, strip aerobics (bedroom pole optional).
DON'T COOK FOR EVERYONE ELSE – Buying snacks for the kids, cooking your husband's favorite meatloaf, going all out for the dinner guests is the downfall of many an over-40 female dieter. The solution: Stop putting everyone else before yourself and cancel the Saturday night dinner party. Give the kids money for individual treats (and tell them not to come home till they've finished eating them). And get the whole family on board with your diet plan: they'll be healthier for it.
DON'T CHEAT ON YOURSELF – Recently, I bragged to my husband that I hadn't cheated at all when I recorded what and how much I'd eaten that day (for my most recent diet), and he looked at me as if I were insane. "Why would you cheat on yourself?" he asked wonderingly: Obviously, the words of a man who's never been on a diet. It might be long experience with rationalization and prevarication that makes us more prone to dietary cheating as we get older. But whatever the reason, don't neglect to count the bite you take here, the sip there. And yes, even when you totally deserve that impulse chocolate treat, it still counts against you.
WHATEVER YOU DO, DON'T BE SENSIBLE – When my 20-something daughter wants to take off a few pounds, does she cut out desserts and eat more vegetables and lean meats? Of course not! She goes on the Vampire Diet – eating whatever she wants, but only after dark – or she adopts a raw vegan regime for a few weeks. She takes, in other words, the kind of extreme weight-loss measures we all used to take when we were young, before we turned into smart, sensible, health-conscious moms.
Don't get me wrong: I'm not advising you to experiment with bulimia or start popping your kid's Adderall to curb your appetite. I'm just saying that the sensible, measured greens-and-lowfat-protein diet is old and the juice cleanse is young.

Brittany Riesenberg, who was a competitive gymnast growing up, went back to the gym after having her fourth child. There, a regular started chatting with her and—noting her compact, muscular physique—suggested she take up weight lifting. She asked him to train her and quickly began winning state championships and national competitions. It was great until the day she stepped onto the platform during a state championship and prepared to do her "snatch"—a competitive lift—using a barbell loaded with 70 kilograms.
Most terrifying moment: "I ended up missing all my lifts. I had lifted the same weight in my warm-ups two minutes before. And then I missed it three times. I couldn't get it overhead, or I'd get it overhead and couldn't stand up. I had stage fright or something. You train for months for this one moment, you take all your supplements, do all your massage therapy, and then you go out there and botch it."
How she got through it: "I think I was able to come back and do well in other competitions because of my drive to prove myself and show what I am capable of. I fought through the nerves, pictured myself winning and talked myself through any doubts. I went on to win the Utah Summer Games in 2013, setting new records there, and then went to California and won the state championship."
What she learned: "You change your perspective on what's important. Missing my lifts wasn't the worst thing that could happen in life."
What she should have done differently: "I should have worked on my mental preparation. A lot of times I'd have negative thoughts going out there—like, What if I miss it? I should not have been thinking like that."
How she bounced back: "My coach would say, 'Look how well you've done; look how much you've improved. Yes, you had a bad moment—but look at a guy who went to the Olympics and bombed. See how he's come back from it.' People who really put themselves out there sometimes fail. You can always hide and never try to do something, but if you're trying to pursue something, you're going to face these obstacles."

|Litehouse Center opens
Lauded as transformative for University of Idaho Athletics, the Litehouse Center/Bud and June Ford Club Room opened Friday night to a full house of awed and appreciative donors.
With Doug and Edward Hawkins of Litehouse Foods on one side and Bud and June Ford on the other, Vandal Athletic Director Rob Spear and University President Duane Nellis applauded their generosity and thanked them for their vision in helping launch the project that provides "the best seats in college football" to the Vandal faithful.
The Litehouse Center encompasses not only the Bud and June Ford Club Room but the loge boxes and suites that bring deluxe accommodations to the Kibbie Dome. The ceremonial ribbon cutting brought to a close a six-month renovation that completely changed the look of the iconic, 36-year-old structure. Further enhancing the new look of the home of Vandal Athletics is the natural light streaming through both ends, which now are covered with translucent panels.
The Club Room was an immediate hit with the "Stadium Builders," who were on hand to witness the ribbon-cutting and have a first-look at their new loge, club and suite seats. They toasted the festive evening as the Idaho football team practiced in what seemed like daylight conditions.
While the end wall replacement was funded by the University to comply with life-safety measures, the Litehouse Center/Bud and June Ford Club Room, and new Bob Curtis Press Box on the north side all were paid for with private monies. The total invested in the replacement of both end walls and the luxury area is approximately $30 million, which brings the total invested in Kibbie Dome improvements since 2003 to almost $40 million.

Very excited to announce Detroit singer Britney Stoney as our November Next Step winner! Having learned guitar just two years ago, Britney has made quite the impression on her local circuit playing at coffee shops, clubs, and open mics. Citing Tracy Chapman, Dionne Farris, Erykah Badu, and Lauryn Hill as influences, her sound is primarily soul with alternative, folk, and pop leanings – you may even hear a tinge of reggae or country at times.
Above, we've got an awesome live performance video where Britney starts out with an Amy Winehouse cover of "Valerie." After, she moves into an original piece where she shows welcome hints of Adele in her style. Below, hear another one of Britney's tracks called "Three." Heaps of potential with this young lady!

On a sunny day with temperatures at or above 70° Fahrenheit, most people know that the temperature inside their car can soar to intolerable levels for their dog. But even outdoors in a non-shaded area, the heat can quickly get to your pooch and cause serious complications.
Dogs do not perspire the way humans do; in fact, the only sweat glands that they have are on the pads of their feet. Dogs pant to cool themselves and also use a temperature exchange called convection to cool their skin. Both panting and convection cool the body by exchanging the warm body temperatures for the cooler air outside. If the surrounding air is not considerably cooler than the animals' body temperature - as in the case of a hot, stuffy automobile - the cooling system will not work and heatstroke can occur. View our "How to Keep Your Dog Cool in Hot Weather" Video
What are the signs of heatstroke?
Signs of heatstroke include:
As heatstroke progresses, it can cause seizures, coma, cardiac arrest, and death.
What should I do if my dog gets heatstroke?
Remove your dog from the hot area immediately. While transporting him immediately to your veterinarian, lower his temperature by placing cool, wet towels over the back of the neck, under the forelimbs, and in the groin area. If possible, increase air movement around him with a fan. Be careful, however, as using very cold water can actually be counterproductive. CAUTION: Cooling too quickly and especially allowing his body temperature to become too low can cause other life-threatening medical conditions. The rectal temperature should be checked every 5 minutes. Once the body temperature is 103ºF, the cooling measures should be stopped and your dog should be dried thoroughly and covered so he does not continue to lose heat. Even if your dog appears to be recovering, take him to your veterinarian as soon as possible, he should still be examined since he may be dehydrated or have other complications.
Allow free access to water if your dog can drink on his own. Do not try to force-feed cold water; as he may inhale it and could choke.
How can heatstroke be prevented?
You can prevent your pet from suffering heatstroke. Use common sense and think of what it might feel like to wear a fur jacket (that cannot be removed) on a hot summer day.

Art From Elsewhere
- 22 April — 17 July 2016 *on now
This spring, Arnolfini and Bristol Museum & Art Gallery are collaborating to present a compelling exhibition of video, installation, photography and painting across two sites in central Bristol.
Art from Elsewhere gathers 38 artists from 22 countries, whose work addresses life, politics and identity in a globalised society. The exhibition includes some of the most important artists working today, seminal figures in the history of conceptual art, and young artists whose work enters British museums for the first time.
The culmination of a national tour, this specially-conceived and ambitious presentation for Bristol reflects the city's historic significance as a port, our diverse cultures, and our place within a rapidly-changing world.
Art from Elsewhere was born from a 2007 scheme, Art Fund International, which awarded a total of five million pounds to museums in five regions to develop new collections of international contemporary art. The successful museums were Bristol Museum & Art Gallery, Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery with The New Art Gallery Walsall, Gallery of Modern Art, Glasgow, Middlesbrough Institute of Modern Art and Towner, Eastbourne.
Bristol Museum & Art Gallery collaborated with Arnolfini to acquire 41 works of groundbreaking international contemporary art by ten female and nine male artists.
Curated by David Elliott, this Hayward Touring exhibition, supported by the Art Fund, is a selection of work from all five collections.
Bani Abidi, Shirin Aliabadi, Carl Andre, Stephen Antonakos, Yto Barrada, Yael Bartana, Lothar Baumgarten, Mohamed Bourouissa, Robert Breer, Paulo Bruscky, Nathan Carter, Thomas Demand, Eugenio Dittborn, Cao Fei, Meschac Gaba, Shilpa Gupta, Jenny Holzer, Peter Hujar, Emily Jacir, Jitish Kallat, Amar Kanwar, Ola Kolehmainen, Barbara Kruger, Glenn Ligon, Ana Mendieta, Adrian Piper, Imran Qureshi, Rashid Rana, Józef Robakowski, Shahzia Sikander, Robert Smithson, Nancy Spero, Beat Streuli, Kara Walker, Ai Weiwei, Yeesookyung, Akram Zaatari and Horacio Zabala.
Art from Elsewhere is an exhibition across two sites. Find out which artists are being exhibited at each venue by visiting the Arnolfini and Bristol Museum & Art Gallery websites.

Warrior Treasures: Saxon Gold from the Staffordshire Hoard
- 26 October 2016 — 23 April 2017
Warrior Treasures is a dazzling collection of gold ornaments studded with blood-red garnets that reveal how an Anglo-Saxon sword was more than just a weapon. It signified a warrior's status, wealth, family and even religious beliefs.
The ornaments are part of the Staffordshire Hoard, which is made up of around 4,000 fragments of gold, silver and semiprecious gems that were stripped from swords and seaxes (single-edged knives). It was unearthed in July 2009 and is the largest Anglo-Saxon hoard ever found.
The hoard reveals breath-taking workmanship and sophisticated designs which have challenged our preconceptions of art in the late 600's AD.
Through the research on the Hoard it has shed light on the 'Dark Ages' and brings to life the Old English poem Beowulf, in which great kings with hoards of gold bestow precious gifts upon loyal heroes.
The secrets of the hoard are still being uncovered through painstaking research and on-going conservation.
The treasure is owned by Birmingham City Council and Stoke-on-Trent City Council and cared for on their behalf by Birmingham Museums Trust and The Potteries Museum & Art Gallery.

Police: Former radio station owner arrested for soliciting prostitute
Published: Friday, January 4, 2013 at 7:20 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, January 4, 2013 at 11:24 p.m.
A former radio-station owner who owns a marketing business and is active in the community was arrested for soliciting a prostitute on Ridgewood Avenue, Daytona Beach police said.
Tony Welch, 77, of Ormond Beach, was charged Wednesday night after he offered an undercover policewoman $20 and told her "I want everything," an arrest report stated. He also told the officer that he was "cheap," the report said.
When the officer told Welch to meet her across the street at the Regency Motel, Welch drove to another block to turn around and was nabbed by a waiting policeman, the report said.
When the officer told Welch that he was under arrest, he responded with, "Is this about that girl? I didn't do anything. I told her I was cheap."
Welch, who owns Tony Welch Marketing and is the former owner and general manager of local radio station WROD, is also co-chair of the Friends of the Bandshell group in Daytona Beach.
He was charged with solicitation to commit prostitution and was taken to the Branch Jail where he posted bail of $500 and was released.

When one retires many things happen but it's the reality of changing our lifestyle that hits us first. We go from a regular daily schedule that required us to juggle several balls, to having full days open. As women we're up early, we used our lunch hours to run errands, and by the time one is off work there's the kid's activities, homework, dinner, laundry etc. Even though I wouldn't trade it for anything, when the opportunity for retirement came about 10 years early, I took it.
I had 4 months to adjust and make plans; there were many questions. Can we afford this, what will I do with myself, what will this do to my health insurance, how or will this affect my marriage? Is this really what I want to do etc.?
What has retirement meant for me? It has been time to slow down the hectic pace of all those years, time to do all those things I had always wanted to do like, learn to make a good pie crust, paint the inside of my house, learn to fly fish, join a 9 hole golf group, read, start learning more about healthy eating and holistic health, time to keep in touch with friends and relatives that the main contact had been Christmas Card greetings and time to get back to me, I'm willing to be a little selfish and take care of me, because now I can.
The steps I took to prepare for retirement: First and foremost you must get your head around it, once you have accepted retirement then there are a few things that need to be done. I thoroughly went through our budget and began to cut here and there I was amazed at just how much I was able to cut from our budget. This extra money was a financial plus. This in itself was a relief and a sense of accomplishment, I traded in our larger SUV for a new smaller SUV, this lowered our monthly gas bill substantially. I changed our cell phone plan, and our car insurance, and I paid off some bills. The next step was to make a new monthly budget and a commitment to stick to it then I made an "I've always wanted to do that list."
You can't retire cold turkey you have to plan for physical and mental realities. Your initial days need to be busy to wean oneself off the hectic or regular schedule/routine. Try planning a two week trip soon after your last day of work to get into a more relaxed mode. Then your "list" it needs to be a lengthy one, of small to large projects from painting the house, planting a garden or taking classes, to restoring a car, you get the picture. I also found if you still wanted a little added income then seek a part-time job, talk to your CPA first to see just how much money you can make before you get hit with taxes. There are many things that only require a few hours a week, like helping with catering jobs, babysitting, helping an elderly person in their yard or with house work, just be creative.
My days are full and I am the most relaxed I have ever been. I still do the many things I did years ago just now I'm not hurrying to get it all done. I can take my time at the grocery store, or the garden store, it so nice to browse, and I don't have to have to rush to a dentist or doctor appointment or even getting the oil changed. I have time to plan nice dinners, go to lunch with friends and get a facial and massage when I want too. For me retirement means owning my own time.I made the right decision I have no desire to go back to work!

Oakland International Airport (OAK)
Airline Competition Plan
Oakland International (OAK) is known nation-wide as a leading
airport facility that fosters airline competition and accommodates
new entrant carriers. Although Southwest Airlines operates
over 60% of the daily non-stop domestic capacity at OAK, this
market share has declined from nearly 70% in 1999. This change
comes not because of service reductions at Southwest, but
because of new entrant airlines and expansion of service by
other carriers at OAK.
Oakland International's policies and agreements provide the
nearly ideal environment to foster airline competition. At
OAK, Airport policies create significant financial incentives
for incumbent airlines to pursue handling agreements with
new entrant carriers, thereby increasing competition. Airlines
do not hold leases, there are no exclusive use boarding rooms
or gates, and incumbent carriers and ground handlers compete
vigorously to handle new airlines.
Oakland International is one of many airports in the United
States that is required by the Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA) to produce and update an Airline Competition Plan. This
document sets forth, in detail, how the airport creates an
environment that promotes competition among airlines through
its rules, regulations, rates and facilities.

Rua Catalana Borough - Naples
A perfect synthesis between history, art and architecture
There is always a side of Naples that you least expect, that surprises and fascinates.
It is that part of Naples that is often unknown, but so full of history, anecdotes to tell and other interesting cues, that it is worth a visit in any case.
This is the case of the "Borough of Rua Catalana".
Despite the fact that it suffers from serious problems of social and urban degradation, in recent years the are has seen a re-evaluation of its workshops of poor materials, in the wake of larger development plans which were explosive in the past and were consecrated when the historical centre was declared to be of World Heritage.
The National Confederation of Handicrafts has promoted the birth of this workshop quarter, which sees a meeting between the techniques of tin-workers and more modern design trends, facilitating a process of visibility of the borough, and therefore to greater attention on the part of Institution and public opinion.
In fact, since 1997, Rua Catalana has been animated by a set up of lights and sculptures – an idea of Riccardo Dalisi, artist, architect, designer and university teacher of planning at the faculty of Architecture of the Federico II University – and made by the artisans of the area.
It is a singular idea that blends urban spaces with architecture and aesthetic expression.
Rua Catalana presents the new use of complex lighting supports which are configured as autonomous structures.
Dalisi demonstrates how it is possible to operate in a totally new way on old buildings that have no architectonic relief, assigning to the lamps the quality of décor, given that they are so typical in their genre.
The lamp called "Napolino", was created with this in mind.
Its articulated supports are animated by signs that characterise the activity that goes on in the workshops in a sculptural form.
Copper, bronze and brass are conceived of and worked as a meeting point between architecture, handicrafts and design, placing art and the process of working with the metals at a point of confluence and diffusion communicative techniques and languages.
Among the open air workshops, one notices the splendid works of Artistic Sud created by Ciro Pepe, Tiziana santarcangelo and Renato Reita.
The name Rua Catalana, in any case, is not only linked to the fervour of its workshops, but is connected to the events relating to the Patron Saint of the city…
In 1799, in fact, at the height of the Neapolitan Revolution, the Neapolitans repudiated the Saint, who they considered guilty of nor having done the miracle of liquefying his blood in front of the French troops, and what was worse, not having done it on the usual dates.
And so, for a few months, the Patron became Saint Anthony, and it seems that in the Rua Catalana images were displayed showing the Paduan saint taking a whipping from the "revoluationaty" Saint Gennaro.
But it would take more than that to put at risk the visceral relationship that links the city to Saint Gennaro, who did not take long to reclaim his "position of command"... (Gianmaria Romano)

|Rawitzer ties for first
LAS CRUCES, N.M. - University of Idaho sophomore Matt Rawitzer fired a one-under 70 during the closing round of the Herb Wimberly Intercollegiate to pull himself into a tie for first at the annual tournament played over the 6,999-yard New Mexico State University Golf Course.
Meanwhile, junior Jarred Bossio blazed through his final round with his second 64 of the fall. Tuesday's seven-under-par score was the lowest of the tournament and enabled him to tie for fifth after opening rounds of 73-74.
Rawitzer tied with New Mexico State's Timothy Madigan at 208 to share the medalist honors after rounds of 68-70-70. Bossio finished at 211 (73-74-64), while Justin Kadin tied for 33rd at 223 (72-76-75), Damian Telles tied for 52nd at 227 (72-78-77), and Zach Wanderscheid tied for 59th at 228 (75-77-76).
The Vandals - with rounds of 285, 297, 285 - finished at 867 and in fifth. Kansas won the 54-hole tournament with an 858 and was followed by UNLV at 859, NMSU at 864 and Washington State at 865.

what the f@SK is fields doing??????
This game is annoying now with all the blowing whistles smh
I think Fields is playing for a contract.
And when we go away from Melo we suck ass.
We have still plenty of time to make a run... but with this Bulls defense and our lack of offense it'll be tough to win this one. Let's hope we can step up and grab a W.
Damn JR playing off again tonight

His performance at Thursday's Twilight Concert Series installment only hammered the point some more. Tens of thousands gathered in our LDS-strong city to cheer (no, scream!) for the person a colleague likes to call, "The Rapping Rabbi." And of course, Matisyahu didn't disappoint. He took the stage, slowly chanting spiritual prayers and then launched into his hip-hop, bass-driven and even sometimes kind of psychedelic style of reggae.
Here's a video, complete with what the crowd looked like from the stage (well, from below the stage where I stood). It was an intense night. Before I say more, here are some details: Matisyahu sounds as good live-if not better than-he sounds on his albums. His voice is pitch perfect and rich, the perfect reggae voice; yes, King Without a Crown and One Day (Matisyahu's major hits) sounded amazing, complete with their own, concert-ized spins and Matisyahu played for two full hours. Yup. Two hours.
Here he is singing a cool version of Got No Water. Any shakiness was due to crowd craziness. (They could not be tamed!)
Here's just a little of his opening vibe:

One week I was at work and the day was just dragging along. Of course it was a Monday, oh I'm sorry Mondays are the new Fridays…or was it Sundays are the new Fridays I forget sometimes, anyway I decided to live a little, do something I've never done yet, something crazy!
Well, that thought went from my head straight into air and evaporated. I summoned it back. I thought, what can I do? Was this hard to come up with because I have done it all, or because there is just so much to choose from because I haven't done anything crazy.
By the time 5:00 PM roll around I had no idea what I was going to do. So as I am driving home, the family wants pizza for dinner, so I order and arrange for pickup.
Oh the sweet yummy smell that filled my car when the pizza took a seat next to me. I looked at the box and it looked at me, I thought don't temp me, you hear me. Then it dawned on me, the CRAZY thing I was going to do. Yes, this is something my husband always does on the way home from picking up the pizza. Something I was always so jealous of because it was just so selfish.
I'm going to sneak a piece! I'm going to be selfish for one sweet moment in time!
Oh the box seem to open itself up to me, and there it sat, sizzling hot, calling my name…..my mouth started watering and I reached for a piece. I realized I was being soooo bad, sooo crazy. Why did I deny myself this pleasure for so long? I had to laugh out loud. This was the best I could come up with and yet it was total bliss. Now I'm living.
I thought …wow what will I do tomorrow.

Expensive cases typically have superior cable management, stock cooling and accessibility, but budget chassis owners aren't missing out on much. Cables can be hidden with some imagination and zip ties, fans can be upgraded if necessary, and unless you swap hardware frequently, fancy tool-less mechanisms won't be saving you much time.
The difference between a $60 and $200 chassis often amounts to some extra space, aesthetics such as interior paint, and a simplified installation process. Our question is: are those features worth a price premium to you? How much did you pay for your current case? To get us rolling, I'm using the dated Thermaltake Tai-Chi and Julio has the HAF 932.

Abigail Heyman on Women, Photography, and Being a Women Photographer
In her obituary, photojournalist Abigail Heyman, who died May 28, was remembered for her pioneering work on the changing roles of women.
She produced her landmark books Growing Up Female and Butcher, Baker, Cabinetmaker in the 1970s, a time when artists, academics and social scientists were still being told that devoting time and attention to so-called women's issues could be a career killer.
I found an interview with Heyman in the 1994 book Truth Needs No Ally: Inside Photojournalism, by the legendary photo editor Howard Chapnick. Chapnick interviewed Heyman and other women photojournalists, including Susan Meiselas, Lori Grinker and Donna Ferrato about their work and the discrimination they faced. Heyman's answers were direct, honest, illuminating and smart.
Here's are brief excerpts from the interview:
Q: Is it difficult for people to get past the stereotypes of women only as fashion, portrait, or social happening photographers?
Heyman: Is that like being just a housewife? That is, should we feel embarrassed about not being interested in "more important things" that would matter to men? I do a lot of work about social events that I think are deeply important. I don't feel stereotyped in that. I often feel treated as though what I am doing is unimportant to a male oriented world, which of course, includes women.
Q: Are women photographers more inclined to choose different subjects to photograph than men?
Heyman: Yes, but that has been severely tempered by their knowing that, to be successful, they have to photograph the subjects that men think are important. Being a woman influenced my ideas about what I wanted to photograph. My interest in women's issues, in family issues, in social relationships came out of my experience of growing up as a female. I instinctively incorporated what has recently in the psychological field become known as "women's values" and those are deeply my values. The fact that those stories have been considered unimportant by a male-dominated society, of which photojournalism is only one small part, is the discrimination I feel, not the fact that I only receive assignments to photograph these issues.
Here's a quote from the interview that made me laugh out loud. It was a laugh of recognition. I suspect women in any field will know what Heyman was talking about here.
Q: Do you think that some women use their sexuality to gain access?
Heyman. Yes. And so do men. Women flirting to gain access are called "using their sexuality to gain greater access," while men flirting to get access are called "charming." I think it was an early feeling I had that I wanted to avoid accusation so badly that I never learned how to flirt or be charming.

Pecotic Closes Fall with USTA/ITA National Indoors Consolation Title
Matija Pecotic defeated Peter Kobelt of Ohio State 7-6, 6-1 Sunday to win the consolation singles title at the USTA/ITA National Indoor Intercollegiate Championships at the National Tennis Center in New York.
Pecotic finished his fall campaign with a singles record of 26-2, winning singles titles at the Farnsworth/Princeton Invitational, the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center Men's College Invite and the USTA/ITA Northeast Regional. He also advanced to the semifinals of the ITA All-America and now has won the consolation title at the USTA/ITA National Indoors.
"It's difficult to imagine a player having a better fall season than Matija did," Princeton head coach Billy Pate said. "To go 26-2 against the quality competition he faced is an emormous accomplishment. Today was another great win against one of the top guys in college tennis. I always fell it shows far greater character to lose in the first round and then rebound to win four matches in capturing the consolation draw. It's easy to compete when you're on a roll, but Matija dealt with the setback of losing in the first round and showed tremendous resolve. Today he played what I think is the biggest server in the country and found a way to break him three times in the second sef. I couldn't be more proud of him and we're looking forward to preparing for the spring season.
Kobelt was the No. 2 seed in the main draw, while Pecotic was the No. 3 seed. Both were upset in the first round. Pecotic fought of four break points at various times in the first set while not having any break chances, taking the first set in a tiebreak.
Sunday's win improved his record against fellow ITA-ranked opponetns to 13-1, as Kobelt was ranked No. 35 in the preseason. Pecotic was ranked No. 67, a standing that will likely get a big boost once the new singles rankings come out Jan. 3.
The consolation draw is available here.
In Florida, Dan Richardson closed out the fall season with a loss in the consolation final of the Lakewood Ranch clay-court tournament to Will Neuner 6-3, 6-2.

Modern music legend Hank Williams was the honoree for the 7th annual American Music Masters series. In a career that barely lasted a decade, Hank Williams [inducted 1987] charted 36 Top 10 country hits, including such classics as "Lovesick Blues," "Cold, Cold Heart," "Hey, Good Lookin" and "Jambalaya (On the Bayou)." Unfortunately, Williams' career came to a tragic end, when he died of a heart attack on January 1, 1953, at the age of 29. He scored three posthumous Number One hits in 1953 – "Kaw-Liga," "Your Cheatin' Heart" and "Take These Chains from My Heart" – and he has continued to inspire subsequent generations of rock and rollers and country musicians.
The Cleveland Playhouse presented the acclaimed play, Lost Highway: The Music and Legend of Hank Williams, directed by Randal Myler, from September 24 until October 20.
On Saturday, September 28, scholars, artists, and fans gathered to explore the life and legacy of Hank Williams. Panelists included musicians Joe Grushecky (Iron City House Rockers), Don Helms (formerly of Hank Williams Drifting Cowboys), Tommy Shaw (Styx), Jett Williams (Hank's daughter) and Marty Stewart; scholars Peter Guralnick, Colin Escott, and Renée Sentilles; Hank Williams Museum founder Cecil Jackson and manager Beth Jackson Birtley ; Tony Ward nominee playwright Randal Myler and actor Jason Petty.

ZF-8258: I have create Zend_Dojo decorator and view helper for dijit.TitlePane
i'm using my code and it works with any problems. The code is very similar e.g. TabContainer's decorator and view helper (almost the same), i have only changed some settings and I didn't create new methods or some new code. The code is simply the same as TabContainer's code.
But I didn't create Unit Tests, because it's unnecessary for me, so if somebody create unit tests, this dojo decorator and view helper for dijit.TitlePane could be without any problems in next minor version. :)
I have create demo site: http://zf.crystal-studio.eu/public/dojo/…

Colorado 35, Washington State 34
Saturday, Sept. 22
2 p.m. (MT) - FX
Martin Stadium, Pullman, Wash.
Brooks: Video Helped Joyous Buffs Break Into Song
PULLMAN, Wash. - After a week of Buffs bashing nationally, locally and, some suggested, even internally, the only real antidote was to answer on the field. Colorado football had become Bottom Ten fodder, a sad punchline after maybe as bad an oh-no-and-three start as the school has suffered through.
The suffering stopped Saturday afternoon. Down 17 points in the fourth quarter, CU stormed back with three touchdowns in the final 7:06, tied the score on quarterback Jordan Webb's 4-yard middle draw and won on Will Oliver's extra point with 9 seconds showing.
It was a savory afternoon for CU, with big-playmakers sprinkled throughout the 66 available players who traveled. Webb, the Kansas transfer, ran for a pair of scores and threw for another pair. Tailback Tony Jones had a career-best 84-yard TD run and tight end Nick Kasa a career-best 70-yard TD reception. Both were part of the near-miraculous fourth-quarter.
But when it came time to award game balls, a pair went to Jamie Guy and John Snelson. No, they're not on the roster, but you can find them on the CU staff directory.
Here's their back-story and why coach Jon Embree believed they were worthy:
Early last week, Guy, CU's director of sports video, woke up with the idea of using former players to tell a roster full of young players "what it means to be a Buff" and "what singing the fight song means to them." Guy approached Embree, who immediately got on board and told Guy and his guys to get to work.
With help from Snelson, his top assistant, and student assistant Connor Cassidy, Guy got in touch with about a dozen former players, explained the project and asked for their help. Needless to say, Guy only had to ask once.
It wasn't meant as an in-house answer to anyone on the outside, not an attempt to silence any critics. What it turned out to be was a meticulously edited, powerfully presented 15-minute video that Embree showed to his team on Friday night. (You'll be able to see it in its entirety at the Parade of Buffs rally on Thursday night at the 1st Bank Center in Broomfield. Snippets will run on CUBuffs.com in the four-day run-up to the event.)
With such a young team and with a recent resume so short on success, Embree and his staff had believed the Buffs' past was being lost. One assistant coach told me early in the week of arriving in Boulder a couple of decades ago and having "the torch" passed on to him and his freshman class by former players such as Mickey Pruitt, David Tate and Eric McCarty.
When the current crop of freshmen arrived, not only was there no one to pass the torch, the flame had all but gone out. Guy sensed that, too. From about 9 a.m. Thursday to 6:30 a.m. Friday - in time for the team's early afternoon departure to Spokane - he had contacted and interviewed former CU players from the 1960s (Estes Banks), the '70s (Brian Cabral), the '80s (Mike Marquez, Embree) and the '90s (Eric Bieniemy, James Hill, Kanavis McGhee, Alfred Williams, Chad Brown, Charles Johnson, among others)...more
On a hazy, smoky Saturday in the Palouse, desperate and determined CU rallied from a 17-point fourth-quarter deficit with three touchdowns in the final 7:06 to stun Washington State 35-34 for the Buffs' first win this season...more

ZF2-291: For ZF 2.0, rename the current Zend_Feed_Reader parser method getLinks() - it conflicts with Zend_Feed_Writer using the matching method to refer to generic Atom links
Zend_Feed_Reader's getLinks() method does not refer to generic Atom links as would be expected. A setLinks() method added to Zend_Feed_Writer would. This conflict over meaning should be resolved in ZF 2.0, by renaming the current getLinks() to something more descriptive for its current usage, leaving the method name free to replace the upcoming getAllLinks() method. This is necessary to ensure a cohesive API across both Zend_Feed components (something needed for future integration).
Set fix version for next major release (Zf 2.0)
