Sweet Summer Makeup Suitable for All Skin Tones
This entry was posted on June 23, 2014.
Is your hairstyle perfect for summer but you're missing that glowing summer makeup? Part of truly enjoying the summer time is finding and applying the right summer makeup that works fantastic for all skin tones. The great news is that it's possible to get that healthy glow for any skin tone without heavy contouring or feeling like you have to load on your makeup products.
Begin with a moisturizer
Before applying makeup during the summer moisturizer not only keeps your skin hydrated, but it also offers a base for your makeup to cling to. Choose a moisturizer that has SPF in it for added sun protection, especially if you're headed to a lake, ocean, or plan on sitting outside for a long period of time. Spot reducing moisturizer is another feature you should look for when you're picking out moisturizer; it helps reduce spots that develop from being outside in the sun for long periods of time. Some great companies that offer protective moisturizer include Clinique and Kiehl's, for example.
Gently Spot on Foundation
The key to finding the right foundation is by using a shade that will disappear into your skin. One you find a shade that's perfect for your skin tone use a sponge and gently dab on the foundation on to your t-zone. Next blend outward, but mainly keep it on your nose and chin. Keep it natural and try not to apply complete foundation coverage to your forehead and cheeks. You can also use concealer around your eyes if you have circles that you'd like to conceal. Remember to be gentle to your eyes because the skin around your eyes is the most sensitive skin on your face.
Find a Blush that Matches Your Cheek Color
Just like your goal is to keep it natural with foundation, you can do the same with your cheeks. Find a blush that matches the color of your cheeks when you exercise and then apply it gently to the apples of your cheeks for a natural looking hue. For shimmery and glowing cheeks look for a blush that has a slight shimmer in it. Bare Minerals has several loose and shimmery powders that you can use both as eye shadow or blush during the summer.
Set Your Makeup with a Sheer Powder
You're almost done! To complete your summer radiant look, gently dust on a sheer powder with a large bronzer brush. If your complexion is light look for a pale-yellow powder otherwise a sheer powder may appear pasty. The idea is to keep your makeup light and natural, so if sheer powder doesn't work for you, another idea is to use loose mineral powder for a healthy summer glow. What's more, creme to powder makeup is another natural alternative and may work fabulously with your skin tone.
Summer is a time to shine and be yourself, and keeping it real and natural with your makeup is no exception. Keep your face protected from the sun and use summer makeup that you adore for a glowing complexion. Good thing many companies offer makeup suitable for all skin tones because now it's possible to have a sweet summer complexion to go with your perfect hairstyles!

Softball Stays Unbeaten with Two Saturday WinsAlabama downs Iowa and Western Illinois
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. – The top-ranked Alabama softball team earned two more wins at the Easton Bama Bash Presented by Drash Saturday afternoon at Rhoads Stadium. The Crimson Tide downed Iowa, 4-1, and then defeated Western Illinois, 6-0. With the pair of victories, Alabama improves to 15-0 on the year.
Game One
Alabama opened day two of the Bama Bash with a 4-1 victory over Iowa on Saturday. Junior All-American Jackie Traina struck out 10 and freshman Haylie McCleney collected three hits to lead the Tide to the victory.
Traina improved to 8-0 on the season after allowing one run on four hits in the complete game effort. McCleney added a run and two RBI while also stealing a base.
Alabama opened the scoring in its first at-bats. Traina helped her own cause by ripping a single to right that scored Braud. UA tacked on two more in the second when McCleney drove in senior Keima Davis on a double to left-center. Junior Kaila Hunt then plated the freshman on a single up the middle.
The Tide added some insurance in the sixth when McCleney hit a sac-fly to shallow left that Davis was able to race home to beat the throw.
Game Two
Alabama got another shutout performance from sophomore Leslie Jury that led to a 6-0 win over Western Illinois.
Jury struck out nine and allowed just three hits to improve to 5-0 on the season. Freshman Haylie McCleney added two more hits while sophomore Jadyn Spencer had two hits, including a two-run home run.
Alabama jumped on the board early with a single run in the first. Spencer singled up the middle to score McCleney. The run was the 24th on the year for the freshman.
The Tide expanded its lead to 3-0 when Spencer uncorked her first home run of the season, a blast well over the wall in left that scored Braud in the third inning. Alabama added two more in the inning when junior Jordan Patterson hit an RBI single and sophomore Danielle Richard was then able to score on an error by the centerfielder.
Alabama capped off its scoring on the day when freshman Andrea Hawkins singled up the middle to score Richard from second.
Alabama will close out Bama Bash play with a single contest on Sunday. The Crimson Tide will wrap up the weekend against Winthrop at 1:30 p.m.

Nick Coleman's enthusiasm and encyclopaedic knowledge is a testament to his passion for music, which is also his livelihood.
Tragically, he lost hearing in one ear and suffered tinnitus in the other. All sound could cause him pain, resulting in crippling migraines. He delves into the roots of his love for music in an effort to find a way of reconfiguring it in his mind in a different way. Although there were very dark times, he is lacking in self pity, and rises to the challenge of coping with this disability.
This is a poignant, nostalgic, absorbing account of his journey. Eventually he finds a way to appreciate music again despite the pain, and at least in his head the song will remain the same.

VOCALS project descriptionVAMOS Ocean-Cloud-Atmosphere-Land Study
SummaryVOCALS is an international program that is part of the CLIVAR VAMOS (Variability of the American MOnsoonS) program. The scientific issues underlying VOCALS can be broken into four interconnected categories: atmospheric, oceanic, and coupled model biases and model improvement in the SEP and other subtropical cool-ocean regimes; SEP aerosol-cloud interaction and implications for aerosol indirect effect and regional climate; SST distribution and the ocean heat budget in the SEP; and the role of South America and remote forcing from tropics and midlatitudes, on diurnal to interannual (ENSO) timescales.
Objectives:The overall goal of VOCALS is to develop and promote scientific activities leading to improved understanding, model simulations, and predictions of the southeastern Pacific (SEP) coupled ocean-atmosphere-land system, on diurnal to interannual timescales. Our two leading concerns are (1) the physical processes affecting the radiative and microphysical characteristics of the persistent stratocumulus clouds of this region, and (2) the ocean budgets of heat and other constituents, and how they determine the sea-surface temperature (SST) throughout this region.

Education Week is an opportunity to celebrate the important role that education plays in building our society. The Alberta Teachers' Association supports schools, school boards and locals to plan activities that send consistent messages about the value of education in the community.
Education Week was established more than 75 years ago to call attention to the importance of education and to show the public some of the good things happening in Alberta schools. Education Week is an excellent opportunity to (a) advocate for public education and the important role that schools play in communities, (b) assure taxpayers that public funds are being put to good use, (c) invite the public into classrooms for first-hand experiences, (d) highlight the partnership between teachers, parents and students, (e) demonstrate the important leadership role that the teaching profession plays in student learning and (f) celebrate the contribution that all staff and volunteers make in the school.
Consider the following ideas and activities for Education Week at your school. Better yet, set up an Education Week Planning Committee at your school.
A number of enthusiastic editorials appeared in newspapers throughout Alberta, including this excerpt from the Calgary paper: "It is a praiseworthy characteristic of the profession of education that the school teacher evinces no desire to keep the workings of his craft a secret. He not only invites the public, particularly parents, to inspect the factory but to learn the whole trade. It was such a spirit that motivated the institution of Alberta School Week which commences tomorrow and in which have been asked to cooperate the church, parent-teachers' associations, women's organizations, school boards, local and provincial departments of education, political organizations both party and non-party, the service clubs, boards of trade, chambers of commerce—Could the appeal have been more broadcast?" (Calgary Albertan,December 1, 1928)
Innovative. Inspired. Our future . . . our students!
For help in planning or publicizing Education Week, teachers and local executives are encouraged to call Shelley Magnusson at 1-800-232-7208, ext 478 or e-mail email@example.com.

Reviews for Pumpkin Dessert Bars
"I made this recipe for my wife & she raved about it. My neighbors wants more any time I feel like baking. Yes I am the cook & the baker in my house. Love it. Love it. Bub, Vt."
"I cooked the egg white/sugar mixture in a double boiler over simmering water, as one reviewer suggested, and it came out perfect. I found it took quite awhile to prepare this recipe and did make quite a few dirty dishes but the taste was worth it in the end. Thanks for the great recipe!"
"What a delicious dessert! I made this for a baby shower and it was a big hit. It did take a lot longer than the time specified, but I feel it was well worth it for a special dessert. I made two small changes. I added 1/2 teaspoon of nutmeg and 1/2 teaspoon of ginger and it really tasted like a pumpkin pie, but better!"
"Sounds fantastic!Question:Could I substitute in the canned pumpkin pie filling for the pure pumpkin and spices part of the recipe?"
"If you are afraid of salmonella, you can always use a meringue powder. Wilton has a great one that I use on occasion. Salmonella cases are way down, and I know where my eggs come from, so I'm not afraid of meringues. Just don't criticize a recipe because it contains something you are uncomfortable with. Make adjustments for yourself."

@ Lordylord – very well said. @ Mojavemama – I don't agree with you at all. I respect Ceaser and think that the work he does is amazing. As much as people may love animals, I don't think everyone grasps the concept that animals all function and interact and learn through a social system that is different than that of humans. I have never seen Ceaser lose his temper or do anything that would be considered cruel. If you have any evidence of your allegations, I would be interested in seeing it. That being said, you seem like a gentle soul and you are certainly entitled to your opinion and I bet that you have wonderful and happy companions in your life!
BTW… looked at the link you offered as proof of abuse… you should try watching an entire episode, rather than various three second clips taken out of context. The montage is similar to filming a person screaming out during therapy when they are being worked on by a therapist. One might assume the person is being tortured. The difference between that and the dogs in the clips is that the dogs aren't even experiencing any pain. I love dogs more than I love humankind and what Ceaser is doing is not cruel in any way. People can judge for themselves. Just wanted to let you know I viewed your link and don't consider it to be anything other than random clips taken out of context. So, I guess we have to agree to disagree.

Often times you see a food product that you'd really love to try, but the price tag may deter you, especially if you don't end up liking it. That's when small or sample sizes are a great option. They are also great when you are just cooking for one. And the mini-bar size makes them fun!
Here are 4 that I experimented with recently:
Roasted raspberry chipotle sauce - chicken, tilapia, salmon
Roasted mango chipotle sauce - pork, chicken, shrimp
Cook the meat, seasoned with salt and pepper, however you prefer. You can cook it on the stovetop, in the oven or on the grill. You can also leave the meat whole or cut it into strip or pieces. Once the meat is cooked through, pour the chipotle sauce over the top it, similar to how you would apply barbecue sauce. You may be tempted to cook the meat in the sauce, but it will burn onto the meat, so it is best to add it at the end, as a seasoning. Serve the meat with a side dish of your preference.
Basil oil - quinoa, scrambled eggs
Garlic oil - zucchini, asparagus
These oils add great flavor to a variety of dishes. In preparing a favorite quinoa recipe, adding basil oil will only enhance the flavor. Garlic oil is great to add to sautéed vegetables, such as zucchini or asparagus. Similar to sesame oil, these should be used as a seasoning to the dish versus cooking them in the basil or garlic oil.
Feel free to experiment and find your favorite way to use these sauces and oils.
Eat and enjoy!
Eat & enjoy!

Full text not available from this repository.
View at publisher
p53 is a tumor suppressor gene whose regulation is crucial to maintaining genome stability and for the apoptotic elimination of abnormal, potentially cancer-predisposing cells. C. elegans contains a primordial p53 gene, cep-1, that acts as a transcription factor necessary for DNA damage-induced apoptosis. In a genetic screen for negative regulators of CEP-1, we identified a mutation in GLD-1, a translational repressor implicated in multiple C. elegans germ cell fate decisions and related to mammalian Quaking proteins. CEP-1-dependent transcription of proapoptotic genes is upregulated in the gld-1(op236) mutant and an elevation of p53-mediated germ cell apoptosis in response to DNA damage is observed. Further, we demonstrate that GLD-1 mediates its repressive effect by directly binding to the 3'UTR of cep-1/p53 mRNA and repressing its translation. This study reveals that the regulation of cep-1/p53 translation influences DNA damage-induced apoptosis and demonstrates the physiological importance of this mechanism.

Blog break until July 22nd
Tomorrow morning I am leaving for hot and humid Florida. Tomorrow afternoon thru Friday morning I will be at the Conchologists of America convention at Fort Myers. Come to think of it, it's been pretty hot and humid here in Maryland too, so I think the weather will feel the same and luckily no hurricanes are being predicted for this week.
My presentation, Say's snails: from 1817 to 2005, is scheduled for Thursday afternoon. I am hoping there will be opportunities to do some snail collecting and snail watching between the daily thunderstorms.
Bye for now and don't forget to take the garbage out while I am away.

Can things get much worse for President Barack Obama?
Benghazi, IRS, U.S. military vets, Bowe Bergdahl, and more recently a tidal wave of illegal aliens (many of whom are children) saturating the U.S. southern border. Add them all up and you have a host of issues that are sending Obama to the lowest of lows.
According to a recent national poll, Obama tops the list of the worst presidents since World War II.
The survey, released July 2 by Quinnipiac University, also shows that a plurality of voters nationwide say in hindsight that the country would be better off if former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney had won the 2012 presidential election.
Thirty-three percent of people from the poll say that Obama is the worst president since the Second World War, with 28% stating predecessor George W. Bush was the worst. Thirteen percent picked Richard Nixon, with 8% naming Jimmy Carter.
According to the poll, Ronald Reagan (at 35%) tops the list of the best president since WWII, with 18% noting Bill Clinton was best, followed by John F. Kennedy at 15% and Obama at 8%.
While Bush 43 left office in January 2009 with very dismal poll numbers, his favorable rating now sits at 46%, up 11 percentage points over the past five and a half years. His favorable rating, according to the CNN poll, is now on par with Obama.
Meantime, 45 percent of those polled claim that America would be better off if Romney had won the 2012 election, with 38% saying the U.S. would be worse off. According to Romney, he will not run again in 2016.
Obama's handling of illegal aliens not helping
One of the many issues that has a sizable percentage of Americans unhappy with the current resident of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue is illegal immigration.
As most who follow the news know, thousands and thousands of illegal alien children (most from Central America) have been flooding across the southern border from Mexico into Texas and Arizona in recent weeks. With local officials unable to keep up with the numbers, a percentage of the illegals have been transported to a number of states, one of which is California.
Just the other week, border patrol officials stated that several hundred originally destined to be moved to San Diego would not.
On Tuesday, however, as approximately 140 illegals were attempting to land in Southern California, many local residents in Murrieta protested the move. Buses then transported the 140 or so undocumented immigrants to U.S. processing centers at least 80 miles away, in the San Diego and El Centro areas, according to federal officials.
Meanwhile, 40 were being quarantined at the Border Patrol Chula Vista Station with active scabies and head lice. The facility will provide them with showers, laundry service and bedding. Another 10 people, mostly children, were taken to local hospitals with unknown illnesses.
Earlier in the week, Obama said he would bypass Congress in efforts to fix the immigration problem.
Perhaps the real problem is that Obama is out of touch with many Americans who feel that enough is enough when it comes to the fiasco at the southern border, just one of his many issues he's not winning public support on.

Official first day of 5k training
Saturday, March 16, 2013
The program I decided to use was one that I started last spring, the Spark "5K your way walk/jog." Last spring I got exactly 2 sessions in. Neither of them was conducted as written. The plan for week one is walk 4 minutes, jog 1, repeat 5 times (25 minutes). In last years sessions I jogged for about 30 seconds 2 or 3 times. I had terrible shin splints and it sucked. I kept walking and doing other things through august, then working out became sporadic.
Today I set out on the track knowing that I can do two laps in 4 minutes I had my plan and timing and an idea of what this would look like. I got to my second time around the track and was under 4 minutes (yippie!) and started jogging. I didn't try to "run," I jogged. The end of 1 minute was right about where I expected it to be. Imagine the excitement and pride when I made it that whole minute! I managed to do the 25 minutes as prescribed by the program. Even better than that, I could even walk a few laps as a cool down. I did a grand total of 1.7 miles in 30 minutes. I am quite proud of my 18 minute mile plus some cool down time. This is huge for me, and quite encouraging. Hubby came along and ran his 5k at a pace of about 13 minutes a mile. Since hubby was running longer than I did, I used the stationary bike for the remaining 11 minutes. Yup, after walking and jogging I could still do the bike and my legs don't feel like they are on fire. Things are looking up.
My foot and ankle held up. I have been trying to keep it up a bit more today. When I finish here I am going to go sit on the couch with my glass of wine and watch some TV with hubby.
I did REALLY well with my food today. I made meatless stuffed mushrooms that were pretty filling but not very high calorie. I tried a new brand of protein bars: Pure Protein. They have less soy protein than the brand I had been getting and really liked. Because of my PCOS I have to limit my soy because of the hormone/estrogen contained by soy. It's unfortunate because soy is a cheap and good source of protein. Whacha gonna do? Even having some white rice for dinner along with my tacos I still have enough calories for my glass of wine, chobani bite (caramel & pineapple greek yogurt), and some popcorn during our tv/movie time. That will put just at my low range.
Since I haven't really been doing much and eating crap for the past several months, I have forgotten how great it feels to get some exercise and eat well for two days in a row.
Tomorrow should be interesting. We are going with some friends for Chinese "lunch." We will be getting there by 10am. Apparently this place is very popular for their Sunday dim sum or whatever the special is and it gets packed after 10, so 9:45 lunch it is. I guess.

How Much Must You Earn to Have an IRA?
Original post by Mark Kennan of Demand Media
The Internal Revenue Service limits participation in individual retirement accounts, or IRAs, based on earnings. To determine your eligibility to contribute, you need to know how the IRS defines "earnings" for the purposes of IRAs. A faulty understanding of tax law could lead you to miss out on making a tax-deductible contribution or subjecting yourself to tax penalties for making contributions when ineligible.
Compensation Defined
You must have compensation during the year to contribute to an IRA. Compensation generally refers to money that you are paid for performing services, such as paychecks from your employer and self-employment wages. Compensation does not include interest income, Social Security payments or other unearned income. If your compensation for the year is less than your IRA contribution limit, then you can only contribute up to the amount of your compensation. For example, if your IRA contribution limit is $6,000 but you've only earned $1,500 in compensation, you cannot contribute more than $1,500.
No Future Earnings Requirement
The compensation requirement only applies to the year in which you contribute to your IRA. The IRS does not require that you earn compensation in future years to keep your IRA open. If you meet the compensation requirement this year, but you earn no compensation the following year, your past IRA contributions are not affected, but you won't be able to make an additional contribution for that year.
Roth IRA Earnings Limits
The IRS puts income limits on how much you can earn to contribute to a Roth IRA for the year. The limit is based on your modified adjusted gross income (MAGI), which is your adjusted gross income minus certain deductions that you claimed on your income tax return. The limits change each year and the IRS sets different limits for each filing status. For example, in 2011, the maximum MAGI for a single filer is $122,000 while the maximum MAGI for a joint filer is $179,000.
Traditional IRA Deduction
The IRS also imposes earnings limitations based on the MAGI for some taxpayers who want to deduct contributions to traditional IRAs. If you or your spouse can contribute to an employer plan, such as a TSP or 457 plan, you may not be able to deduct your traditional IRA contribution if your MAGI is too high. The IRS updates the limits annually, and they differ depending on your filing status and whether you or your spouse is covered. For example, if only your spouse is covered, your MAGI limit is $169,000 to claim a deduction, and if you are both covered, the limit is $110,000.

Does anyone else think that the whole Jim Tressel ceremony today was a way for OSU to basically throw up an enormous middle finger to the rest of the world. I can't help but wonder if that they don't land Urban Meyer and/or their season is not going the way it is, he's not there.

Solar Powered Camping trailer
Last Fall a buddy of mine decided to pimp out his trailer with some DIY solar. Norm's little trailer was the perfect little get away trailer for those week warrior trips, the only thing it was missing was a little self sufficient power. After a little research into norms needs and requirements we decided to overkill the system and use 200 watts of solar panel to charge his deep cycle battery.
To attach the panels we fixated 2 aluminum strips to the roof of the trailer with a hefty strip of PL400 and a few self tapping screws to seal to ensure a determinant bond.
In order to mount the panels to the aluminim strip we used self tapping scrws to attach some Z brackets to the back of the panels then screwed them into the roof.
With the panels attached to the roof it was time to run the wires. We neatly zapstrapped the wires together under the pannel and take up the slack and fished them through the vent above the rear fridge access than into the trailer. This compartment gave us plenty of grommets and access to get the wire into the main trailer. The battery, charge controller and inverter were all installed in the kitchen cabinet.
Now one of the best ways to maximize your solar system is to consume less energy. The next step in our solar camper trailer was to swap out those power hungry light bulbs for low voltage LEDs. We wired in 12V LEDs into all of the existing light locations.. Now wait 12V leds on 120v wire? Why yes we did.. rather than running new lines we disconnected the 120V lines in the braker box and spliced them into a new line we ran from the battery. This allowed use to re-use the original wires in our new system.
For power storage we went with a Nautilus ultra AGM deep cycle battery. For 120V power we used a Eliminator 1000W inverter (since it was on sale!) We wired the a power wire from the electrical box to the inverter with a plug on one end. This allowed us to plug in the electrical box and run the built-in in trailer plugs off solar and utilize the factory setup.
With a few hours of work we ended up with one happy Norm ready to get out and enjoy the outdoors!

I first heard about artist Teagan White a while back when one of my coworkers had the print below hanging at her desk. I was just recently checking out her page on Society6 and was so inspired by her beautiful work. I love the incorporation of nature in all aspects of her work and the washed out colors she uses. A lot of her work has a great autumnal feel, which is maybe why I am so drawn to it right now! Check out her work on Society6 – she does lots of really cute animal prints. :)

There are hundreds of concerts in a year, but every now and then a show comes along and rightly blows you away - and this time, that was Linkin Park, Thirty Seconds to Mars and AFI out on the Carnivores Tour.
The general admission pit area of PNC Music Pavilion in Charlotte, North Carolina, was already packed with a sizeable crowd on Tuesday evening as AFI promptly opened up at 6:30 P.M.. Vocalist and founder Davey Havok, bassist Hunter Burgan and guitarist Jade Puget were full of energy and wasted no time in getting the crowd hyped up. Hunter and Jade constantly swapped sides of the stage, jumping on and off risers. Meanwhile, Davey jumped off stage onto a platform that extended out into the crowd, constantly making his way to the barricade, allowing fans to get up close and personal. The crowd happily sang along to AFI's nine song set, which featured "Girl's Not Grey," "Silver and Cold" and numerous other singles from their early discography. The California goth-punk band closed with "Miss Murder," from their seventh studio album Decemberunderground. The song won MTV's Video Music Award for Best Rock Song in 2006 and remains as AFI's most commercially successful single to date.
When "O Fortuna" blared throughout the pavilion, a handful of giant large white flags were dispersed throughout the crowd and there was no doubt that the crowd was in for something over the top. And he certainly appeared over the top, as actor-turned-musician Jared Leto came out on stage sporting long hair and beard, dressed entirely in white robes and embellished in a golden crown. After playing roles in Fight Club, American Psycho and Requiem for a Dream, Jared proved himself to be multi-talented after founding Thirty Seconds to Mars in 1998 with older brother Shannon Leto (drums). Their debut, self-titled album in 2002 was critically well received, but it wasn't until the release of A Beautiful Lie in 2005 that the band reached worldwide success.
Thirty Seconds to Mars released their fourth album Love, Lust, Faith and Dreams last year in May, and with multiple Platinum, Gold and Silver certifications, it was no wonder that their set was comprised largely of the new material. The LA rockers also made sure to appeal to fans of the previous album This Is War, playing the title track as well as "Kings and Queens," both of which hit number one spots on US Alternative Rock charts and received Gold certifications. Following a twelve song performance, Thirty Seconds to Mars brought a few selected lucky fans on stage for their encore "Closer to the Edge."
When a tour lineup features two major bands, it's typical to see the crowd thin out after the first of them plays (noted particularly at this year's Carolina Rebellion and Rockstar Mayhem Festival). Such was definitely not the case at this show. In fact, the size of the crowd was easily one of the largest that the PNC Music Pavilion has seen this summer. Granted, when the headlining band has been around for nearly 20 years, has won two Grammy Awards and has a discography loaded with multiple platinum RIAA certifications, it shouldn't come as much of a surprise.
Linkin Park hit the stage running, blasting their set off with "Guilty All the Same," the first single and already number one hit from their most recent, highly anticipated June album release The Hunting Party. The band debuted as a nu-metal/rap-rock band with their first two albums, then began shifting into an electronic sound with the next three albums. The shift received mainly positive reviews, but loyal fans were critical of the departure from their original sound. Perhaps their diversity has helped contribute to them being able to stay current against many other rock bands that have faded from mainstream... but whatever the case, The Hunting Party seems to show the start of another shift - a step back into the energy and rock from their original albums.
Progressing backwards through their discography, Minutes to Midnight single "Given Up" was played next. That was followed up with "With You," a non-single from Hybrid Theory - the Diamond certified album that start it all. Hybrid Theory is included in the book of 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die, ranked #11 on Billboard's Hot 200 Albums of the Decade and featured four singles that launched the band to popularity.
Lead vocalists Chester Bennington and Mike Shinoda intertwine their contrasting styles perfectly. Chester ranges from controlled melodic lyrics to outright guttural screams, while Mike raps flawless through the verses of "Papercut" and "Runaway." When Mike isn't accompanying Chester on the mic he's occupied doing something else, whether it be guitars, keyboards, or even synths. Make no mistake though, it's not just about the vocalists. Linkin Park has an entirely unique set, with very few of the songs remaining consistent with studio album versions. Song after song intertwines with the next by way of Joe "Mr. Hahn" Hahn's turntable remixes. While they won't be caught performing any show offish solos, Brad Delson (guitar) and Dave "Phoenix" Farrell (bass) are still unmissable, as they seamlessly integrate their sound with the eclectic mesh of vocals and electronica.
The level of crowd interaction during Linkin Park's show was skyrocketed. During the bridge after "Waiting for the End" Chester jumped off the stage and stood on the barricade, singing to the crowd. One fan fervently waved a UNC hat at Chester, who took it and wore it through the beginning of the band's newest single "Final Masquerade," before tossing it back. Then, Mike gave everyone a throwback to the time when he produced his own side-project Fort Minor. The crowd went crazy as he stepped onto the barricade and rapped out "Remember The Name." Of course, no Linkin Park show could go without the band's most recognizable song, "In The End."
With an excess of twenty songs played, it was almost surprising that there was room for an encore. The stage did dim, however, and the guys went backstage for a moment, while the crowd cheered, stomped and otherwise made so much of a ruckus that they may have actually been louder than the band themselves. At the insistent beckoning of the fans, Linkin Park reappeared and not only played an encore, but a six song long one, at that! Both Chester and Mike took turns hopping off the stage, walking every inch of the barricade to shake hands, give hugs and take selfies with the front row fans during "Burn It Down," "Lost in the Echo," "New Divide," "Until It's Gone," and "What I've Done." Rob Bourdon was given the opportunity to showcase his skills with a hard hitting drum solo during the true finale, "Bleed It Out," then Mike and Chester shared a hug while they thanked the crowd and said goodnight. Guitar picks, drum sticks, setlists and sweat towels were thrown to the crowd. But even without a tangible token, the surge of adrenaline from experiencing the actual live show will surely make more than a worthy memory.
With a diverse lineup full of bands and songs from both now and yesteryear, showgoers of all ages and both longtime loyal and new fans alike have something to appeal to. The Carnivores Tour was undoubtedly one of this year's highlights, and not one to be missed as it makes it's way around North America throughout this month and September.

Over the past week, Bears cornerback Charles Tillman has hosted a bowling fundraiser and donated a locker stocked with electronic equipment to a local hospital.
We dusted off some old NFL draft previews to see what was being said about Jay Cutler and several other Bears players when they were entering the league.
The Bears honored cornerback Charles Tillman for winning the 2013 Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year Award with a celebration Thursday at Halas Hall.
Cornerback Charles Tillman said Friday that it's "too early to tell" whether he'll re-sign with the Bears and also clarified a guarantee he made earlier this week to retire as a Bear.
Charles 'Peanut' Tillman and Anthony Adams try to make each other laugh with the help from some helium filled balloons.
Anthony Adams spoofs the hit web series "Between Two Ferns." Charles Tillman takes a seat on Adams' new talk show, "Between Two Helmets."

have a stickybeak at a program called Kismac
Works well for WEP encryption, and can support packet injection depending on your wireless chipset.
You can use the Aircrack suite on mac through darwinports. (or indeed, as mentioned, backtrack has it installed)
WEP, even without packet injection, is cracked trivially in a matter of minutes to hours on a busy network.
WPA is more difficult. What you have to do is capture a four-way handshake, and then mount an offline attack against the key. If you're lucky, you'll not even need packet injection (just wait till someone connects) A simple PSK system is pretty insecure if the key is simple (for example dictionary words, etc...) but mounts in difficulty with the length and complexity of the key. You can use John The Ripper for some serious dictionary attack on the key. If the key is something like
If you're using some sort of authentication scheme besides PSK, I have no idea! :-)
I might be talking through my rear end, though. Have a look at the Aircrack wiki for more from people who actually know what they're talking about.
If you have OS X Lion or Mountain Lion then Kismac will have an error because Apple deprecated half of their CoreWLAN framework. I developed an OS X GUI for Aircrack-NG to hack Wi-Fi networks, it works well with WEP. It's OS X 10.7+ since Kismac works fine in Snow Leopard.
There is a special linux distribution dedicated to WIFI hacking :
It can be found in form of a live CD, so you can run it on you Mac without install anything !
The Airport cards don't support packet injection, so it doesn't work well without a USB wireless dongle.

BOULDER - University of Colorado sophomore forward/center Shane Harris-Tunks will miss the 2010-2011 men's basketball season after tearing his anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in his left knee, announced Friday morning by head coach Tad Boyle.
Harris-Tunks, a 6'11", 250-pound center was to be a key ingredient down low in the paint with the Buffaloes this season, injured his left knee during the first half hour of Thursday practice.
"I am extremely disappointed for Shane," Boyle said after Friday morning practice. "He has worked so hard putting himself in position to be a positive contributor on this team. He gained 25 pounds in the offseason and without a doubt was the team's best ball-screen defender. On the bright side, Shane has three years remaining. He will learn from the bench and continue to develop from the sideline."
Harris-Tunks from Liverpool, New South Wales, Australia, averaged 1.8 points, 1.6 rebounds and 11.7 minutes per game as a true freshman last year. However, added 25 pounds of muscle to his 6-foot-11 frame over the spring and summer.
Harris-Tunks played in 28 games with three starts a year ago leading CU in blocked shots (14) and finished eighth among all Big 12 Conference players in freshman blocks. He became only the fifth CU freshman to lead the team in blocks for a season and shot a team-best 61.1 percent from the field.
"This stuff happens, it's sports," Harris-Tunks said. "The good thing is, I have three years remaining and it's an opportunity to get better and keep moving forward."
The Buffaloes open the 2010-11 season against Idaho State, Friday, Nov. 12 at the Coors Events Center. It's the second of two home openers on the night as the CU women also open the season against Regis (Colo.). The women's game begins at 5:30 p.m., with the men following at 8 p.m. Both games will be televised on FSN Rocky Mountain.

College Hockey:Princeton's Kampersal to serve as coach of U.S. women's U-18 team
USA Hockey announced Wednesday that Princeton coach Jeff Kampersal will serve as head coach of the U.S. Women's National Under-18 Team for the 2012-13 season.
Boston College assistant coach Courtney Kennedy and Steve Guider, head coach of the Blaine (Minn.) girls' high school team, will serve as assistant coaches.
"We've got a terrific staff, each who brings something a little bit different to the table," said Reagan Carey, director of women's hockey for USA Hockey.
Kampersal has been the head coach for 15 years at Princeton and his teams have averaged better than 17 wins per season, more than four wins more per season than in the first 17 years of the program. In 15 seasons, he has amassed a 233-184-41 record behind the Princeton bench.
Kennedy is currently in her fifth season on the BC staff after serving as the head coach at Buckingham Browne and Nichols School in Cambridge, Mass., for three years.

The Bruins begin the fourth season of the Rick Neuheisel Era set to enter the first year of play in the new Pacific-12 Conference. Colorado and Utah join the league this season and both will appear on the Bruins schedule (at Utah on Nov. 12; Colorado at UCLA on Nov. 19).
UCLA enters Spring Practice with some new faces on the coaching staff, a solid recruiting class and the return of plenty of familiar faces as 16 players on each side of the ball return who have previous starting experience.
A total of 45 2009 lettermen, including eight positional starters on defense (DL Owamagbe Odighizuwa, DL Cassius Marsh, DL Damien Holmes, LB Patirck Larimore, LB Sean Westgate, CB Sheldon Price, S Tony Dye, CB Aaron Hester) and eight on offense (WR Nelson Rosario, OL Sean Sheller, OL Mike Harris, TE Cory Harkey, QB Kevin Prince, F Morrell Presley, RB Johnathan Franklin, WR Taylor Embree) along with one of the best punters in the nation, give Neuheisel and his staff reason for optimism entering Spring drills.
In addition, three starters from the 2009 season are ready to return to action after sitting out last year. Center Kai Maiava (fractured ankle), offensive guard/tackle Jeff Baca (academic ineligibility) and defensive end Datone Jones (fractured foot) will each participate in Spring ball with hopes of returning the front lines for the Bruins in the Fall.
Defensively, two of the top tacklers in the Pac-10 in Dye (tied fourth) and Westgate (tied eighth), several of the Pac-10's top young defenders in Marsh, Odighizuwa, LB Jordan Zumwalt and S Dietrich Riley provide an exciting core group of players for the new defensive coordinator and his staff.
On offense, UCLA upped its rushing total from the previous season by an average of over 60 yards per game and produced a 1,000-yard rusher in Johnathan Franklin (1,127 yards). In all, the top seven rushers from 2010 are expected back. The top 10 receivers from a year ago also return, with Taylor Embree's 32 catches and 409 receiving yards leading the way. Tackles Harris and Sheller are returning starters along the offensive line which is also expected to add 2009 starting center Maiava and starting guard Baca back into the mix UCLA also has both starting quarterbacks - Richard Brehaut and Kevin Prince - returning.
"Offensively, I was pleased with the growth of the ground game in 2010 and the mind set that comes along with it," said the Bruin head coach. "The return of Sheller, Harris, Baca and Maiava along the line, and all of our top running backs give us great promise going forward in this area. The passing game came alive down the stretch, but we need to make sure it flourishes all season long for us to maximize our success. Youngters like Ricky Marvray, Malcolm Jones, Anthony Barr, Greg Capella and Chris Ward all saw their first game action last year and I am anxious to see how that experience pays off this spring.
"Defensively, we are excited about our returning nucleus of starters, and the strides several of our young players like Owa, Marsh, Zumwalt and Riley have taken is such a short time. The return of Datone Jones to our defensive front should be a big plus. The experience gained by the linebacking crew will pay dividends this season. We have five defensive backs returning with starting experience and several others who have logged significant playing time who will battle all Spring.
"When it comes to special teams, we feel Jeff Locke is one of the nation's best punters and our punt coverage unit was ranked No.2 in the nation (net punting). We will look to identify our placekicker, holder and long snapper this Spring and continue to work to improve our return units."
"We were all disappointed with last year's results and I expect the level of competition at virtually every position during Spring drills to be off the charts. Our staff needs to make sure it brings out the best in each player."
Offensively, UCLA returns 16 players with starting experience. The receiving group boasts tight end Harkey (12 games started in 2010/23 career starts); wideouts Embree (11/31), Randall Carroll (1/1), Rosario (8/10), Jerry Johnson (1/1), Marvray (4/4); as well as F-backs Barr (4/4) and Presley (6/7). At running back, Franklin (10/18) and Derrick Coleman (2/4) are set to return. Along the offensive line Harris (10/28), Sheller (10/10), Maiava (0/12), Baca (0/21) are back. At quarterback, Prince (5/16) and Brehaut (7/7) each return.
Defensively, UCLA also welcomes back 16 players with starting experience. The defensive line features returner Datone Jones (0/15), Nate Chandler (8/10), Justin Edison (3/3), Damien Holmes (6/6), Keenan Graham (6/6), Owamagbe Odighizuwa (6/6), Cassius Marsh (4/4).

Defensive backs Courtney Viney (1/2), Aaron Hester (11/12), Sheldon Price (9/20), Andrew Abbott (5/6) and Tony Dye (12/26) will be back.
On special teams, Locke ranked as one of the nation's best in 2010, earning All-America honors from rivals.com and second-team all-conference accolades. He ranked first in the Pac-10 and fifth nationally with his average of 45.84 yards per punt. UCLA placed second in the nation in net punting average (41.27). In addition, fourteen of Locke's kickoffs resulted in touchbacks.
The schedule commences with a trip to high-scoring Houston from Conference USA followed by home games against San Jose State and Texas. The Pac-12 schedule opens with road games at Oregon State and Stanford. UCLA will be part of the new Pac-12 South in 2011 which features Arizona, Arizona State, Colorado, USC and Utah. One team from the North and one from the South with meet in the first Conference championship game on the first Saturday in December. Four of the nine Pacific-12 conference games in 2011 will be played at the Rose Bowl, beginning with an Oct. 8 battle against Washington State. The slate also features a Thursday night nationally-televised game at Arizona. The USC game moves back to Thanksgiving weekend (Nov. 26) at the Coliseum.
The Bruins return four quarterbacks with playing experience, including Kevin Prince (5 games in 2010, 16 overall) and Richard Brehaut (7) who each started games last season. Each will be looking to provide a consistent level of production and efficiency within the system.
Redshirt junior Kevin Prince (6-2, 230) opened last season as the starter and went on to start five games, including the big win at Texas. However, a knee injury sent him to the sidelines. He underwent knee surgery on Oct. 23 and missed the balance of the season. Prince will be limited to some individual throwing drills during Spring Practice while continuing the rehab process on his knee.
The strong-armed signal-caller completed 42 of 94 pass attempts for 384 yards, three touchdowns and five interceptions in the five games in which he played a year ago. In 2009, Prince's 173 completions and 2,050 passing yards rank No. 2 on UCLA's all-time freshman list. He ranked seventh in the Pac-10 in total offense (202.64). In addition to his exploits in the air, Prince has netted 289 yards on the ground the last two seasons.
In 2009, he became just the second freshman quarterback in UCLA history to pass for over 300 yards three times (311 v. Cal, 323 at Oregon St., 314 at Wash. St.) in a season (Tommy Maddox in 1990). In fact, only Cade McNown, with six as a senior in 1998, and Tom Ramsey, with four as a senior in 1982, have produced more 300-yard passing games in a season.
True junior Richard Brehaut (6-2, 225) started seven games and played in nine contests overall in 2010. He completed 119 of 212 pass attempts (56%) with six touchdowns and seven interceptions. Brehaut entered UCLA for the 2009 Spring Quarter and went on to see action in six games off the bench that season, completing 11 of 17 passing attempts for 124 yards, no touchdowns and one interception as a true freshman.
Redshirt junior Nick Crissman (6-3, 226) was sidelined by shoulder injuries in 2008 and 2010. He saw his first game action, with 10 snaps in 2009, at Washington State. As a prep senior in 2007, he totaled 2,048 yards passing.
True junior Darius Bell (5-11, 230) transferred in from City College of San Francisco in time for 2010 Fall Practices. He made one appearance last season, coming on for an injured Brehaut in the second half of the Washington game. He will miss Spring drills due to February shoulder surgery but should be ready for Fall camp.
True freshman Brett Hundley (6-4, 225), entered UCLA in January, 2011 after playing the Under Armour Prep All-Star game. In his senior season at Chandler, AZ High School, he completed 139 of 225 passes for 2,348 yards and 20 touchdowns, two interceptions. In addition, he rushed for 856 yards and nine touchdowns and was rated among the top three prep prospects by at least one organization.
"Our quarterbacks must continue to improve their preparation, decision-making and performance at this position and I am confident that they will," said coach Neuheisel. "Kevin has been impressive at times and we expect he will continue to improve. We threw a lot at Richard in his first year as a starter and he responded well. His experience will certainly benefit him going forward. We want to make sure we take a good look at all our available candidates this Spring and gauge their progress."
The Bruins return their top seven rushers from the 2010 season. Three running backs, who carried the ball at least 55 times last season, two with starting experience, are included in that group. The competition figures to be intense right through the fall. The fullback position is wide open.
Redshirt junior Johnathan Franklin (5-10, 198), a second-team All-Pac-10 selection, started 10 games last season and appeared in all 12 contests. He led the Bruins in rushing with 1,127 yards, the 10th-best season mark in school history, and almost doubled his output as a freshman. He was fifth in the Pac-10 and 28th in the NCAA with his average of 93.92 yards per game. He also led the team with eight touchdowns and was ninth in the Pac-10 in all-purpose yards (99.17).
Franklin became UCLA's first 1,000-yard rusher since 2006 (Chris Markey) and posted the highest Bruin rushing total since Skip Hicks ran for 1,282 yards in 1997. After adding five 100-yard games in 2010, Franklin has now gone over the century mark seven times in his career. He did it in three straight contests last season (the last player to do so was Maurice Jones-Drew in 2004) and rushed for a career-high 216 yards against Washington State (most since Jones-Drew went for 322 in 2004).
True senior Derrick Coleman (6-0, 233), who offers a good speed and size combination, has been the team's second-leading rusher in each of the past three seasons (487 yards in 2010, 244 in '09; 284 in '08). He saw action in all 12 games, making two starts, and ran for a career-high 185 yards versus Washington State.
True sophomore Malcolm Jones (6-0, 227) saw action in 11 games off the bench last season and rushed for 200 yards. His best effort came when he rushed for 52 yards in the game against Stanford.
Redshirt freshman Jordon James (5-11, 193), a highly regarded speedster from Corona, CA HS, battled injuries early last year and ended up utilizing a redshirt season. James was impressive in practices and will look to join the rotation with a strong effort this Spring.
"We have a lot of talent and depth in the backfield and we will watch them continue to push each other each day at practice in the battle for playing time," Neuheisel said. "Johnathan showed he has the ability to be a prime time player for us, but must eliminate mistakes that can undo the good he can provide. Derrick has become a more productive player for us each year in the program. Malcolm's year of experience should pay off for him this Spring. and I'm anxious to watch what Jordon can do. "
The wide receiver position returns four wide receivers who made at least 15 catches each in 2010.
True senior Taylor Embree (6-3, 205) has enjoyed three straight highly-productive seasons. He made 11 starts last season and led the team with 32 catches for 409 yards. As a sophomore, he led the team with 45 catches, after ranking second, with 40 receptions, as a freshman.His career total of 117 receptions ranks No. 11 on the all-time school list. Embree ranks 14th on the all-time school receiving yards list (1,548).
True senior Nelson Rosario (6-5, 218), who started eight of the nine games in which he appeared, once again finished the season on a high note. He finished second on the team with 29 receptions and 309 receiving yards. Rosario made 15 catches for 172 yards in the last three contests of the season.
Two speed receivers will be looking to expand their roles on the team. True junior Randall Carroll (5-10, 186) appeared in all 12 games and made one start in 2010. He hauled in 15 passes for 242 yards on the season (16.1 avg.), including a pair of scoring plays --- 68-yards against Arizona and 46-yards at Arizona State.
Redshirt sophomore Ricky Marvray (5-11, 190) saw action in 11 games with four starts last season. He ranked third on the team with 20 catches last season for 188 yards and a pair of touchdowns. His first career reception went for a 29-yard touchdown late in the game at Kansas State. Marvray made a one-yard scoring grab in the win at Texas.
Two players with good size and speed also figure to compete for spots in the receiver rotation. Redshirt junior Jerry Johnson (6-4, 213) came off the bench in eight games in 2010, and made five catches for 57 yards. Johnson fractured his left ankle and missed the last four games of the season. He will not participate in Spring Practice due to surgery on the ankle.
Redshirt senior Josh Smith (6-0, 209) appeared in 10 games off the bench a year ago as a receiver and return man. He caught 11 balls fro 127 yards and one touchdown (49-yards v. Arizona) in his first season with the Bruins after transferring from Colorado. Smith ranked eighth in the Pac-10 with a 22.59 kickoff return average on his 32 returns and 13th in all-purpose yards (91.90).
Redshirt sophomore Shaquelle Evans (6-1, 199) should also insert himself into the mix this season. A transfer from Notre Dame who made three receptions for the Irish as a true freshman in 2009, Evans had shoulder surgery last Fall after joining the program and will participate only in non-contact drills during Spring Practice.
Redshirt sophomore walk-on Jerry Rice, Jr. (5-11, 186) will also look to add depth at wide receiver.
"This group has a nice combination of experienced talent and youthful potential," said the head coach. "Taylor and Nelson continue to be our most consistent performers. Randall and Ricky each stepped up last year and can become big-play receivers for us with continued development. Jerry was coming on as well before his injury sent him to the sidelines. Josh has the speed and elusiveness but needs to add consistency to become a difference-maker for us."
The Bruins have a couple of experienced players returning at tight end and a trio at the F-back (motion) position.
At tight end, true senior Cory Harkey (6-5, 273) is a big, athletic player who started all 12 games in 2010. He can be a force at the point of attack and caught 14 balls for 140 yards.
Redshirt junior Joseph Fauria (6-7, 258) joined the Bruins in the Fall of 2009 after transferring from Notre Dame, where he played in three games as a freshman in 2008. He made three catches on the season for 21 yards and two accounted for touchdowns.
Redshirt junior walkon Kevin McDermott (6-3, 250) figures to add depth at this position. He has also served as the back-up long snapper and will compete for that job. Two other walkons, redshirt sophomore Andrew Yelich (6-3, 230) and redshirt sophomore Jordan Barrett (6-2, 257), a transfer from UNLV who sat out last season, will also compete for reps during the Spring.
Redshirt freshman John Young (6-4, 265), from Loyola HS, will also look to get in the mix after sitting out last season due to injury. Redshirt junior walkon Austin Hill (6-5, 252) will also look to catch the coaches' attention this Spring.
At F-back, true junior Morrell Presley (6-4, 245) appeared in 11 games (six starts) last season, making five receptions. Presley enrolled at UCLA for the 2009 Winter Quarter. He played in six games that season (one start), catching six passes for 43 yards.
True sophomore Anthony Barr (6-5, 238) is a fine all-around athlete who made an impact in his first season with the team. He appeared in all 12 games, starting four, and finished the year with nine receptions for 66 yards and six carries for 29 yards.
Speedy true junior Damien Thigpen (5-8, 183) saw action in eight games last season. He carried once for 22 yards, caught one pass for nine yards and returned nine kickoffs for a 21.3 yards average. He also recorded five tackles while on special teams coverage units.
"I am excited about our group of tight ends and F-backs," said Neuheisel. "Cory has done a nice job for us. Joseph gives our quarterbacks a large target as a receiver. Morrell, Anthony and Damien all bring something different to the F position and we will use the Spring to figure out how to better take advantage of their abilities."
The offensive line brings plenty of quality starting experience to the table. The unit returns two players who started 10 of 12 contests a year ago and two others who started in 2009, but sat out last season.
Redshirt senior Mike Harris (6-5, 334) has 28 career starts under his belt after starting at right tackle in 10 contest last season. He will look to build on his two previous seasons as a starter.
Redshirt senior Kai Maiava (6-1, 318) will look to rejoin the starting unit after missing last season due to an ankle injury. He started all 12 regular-season games at center in 2009. Maiava transferred from Colorado where he started nine games at guard in 2007.
Redshirt senior Sean Sheller (6-5, 315) is set to return after starting 10 games last season at left tackle. Sheller, who battled injuries for much his UCLA career, appealed for and was granted a sixth season of eligibility. He returned to the offensive tackle position in 2010 after spending 2009 on the defensive line.
Redshirt junior Jeff Baca (6-4, 304) was forced to watch from the sidelines last season due to academic ineligibility. He will be looking to work his way back into the lineup after posting 21 career starts in the 2008 and 2009 campaigns.
True sophomore guard Chris Ward (6-5, 325) made his debut in the win at Texas and saw action in three games last season, including most of the second half against USC. He figures to contend for a starting job this season.
Redhshirt sophomore center Greg Capella (6-4, 310) saw his first game action in the win at Texas last season and will compete for playing time at center.
Redshirt sophomore Stan Hasiak (6-5, 301) sat out last season due to academic issues. He figures to compete for playing time at the guard positions this season. A youngster with potential, he appeared in three games in 2009, missing the latter half of the year due to personal medical issues.
Redshirt junior Connor Bradford (6-5, 278), who split last year between offense and defense, returns to the offensive side of the ball and will offer depth at tackle.
Redshirt junior Brett Downey (6-7, 305), who earned a scholarship last season, saw his first game action in 2009 at Washington State. He has impressed the coaches with his hard work and will get a long look at tackle this Spring.
Redshirt freshman Wade Yandall (6-4, 329) enrolled at UCLA last Spring. He impressed the coaches in practices and with his work on the scout teams in 2010 and figures to compete for playing time at guard or tackle in Spring drills.
Redshirt sophomore Casey Griffiths (6-5, 292) figures to compete for playing time at guard this season but will miss Spring drills due to issues with his back. He spent last season getting bigger and stronger after transferring from American River City College last summer.
Redshirt freshman Kody Innes (6-4, 285) stood out in his work last season on the scout team and will compete for playing time at center this year.
"The offensive line has grown and developed together the last few seasons," Neuheisel said. "We have some veterans with starting experience to form the nuclues and some young, talented guys eager to get a look. We will identify our best unit and combinations this Spring and work to solidify the line for the upcoming season."
UCLA returns eight starters on this side of the ball plus many talented youngsters who will compete for playing time and starting jobs during Spring Practice.
This unit returns six players with starting experience and will add a healthy Datone Jones to that mix. Several youngsters are primed to take their game to the next level after gaining a year of experience.
Redshirt junior end Datone Jones (6-4, 272) will look to rejoin the starting line after missing last season due to a foot injury. In 2009, he started all 13 games and ranked third on the squad in quarterback sacks (4.0) and fourth on the team and 12th in the Pac-10 with his 11.0 tackles for loss.

Redshirt junior walkon Ryan Medina (6-3, 235) adds depth at end. Redshirt freshman walkon tackles Uche Amajoyi (6-1, 265) and Tre Hale (6-2, 308) will also look to impress the coaches.
"One of our Spring Practice goals is to develop the defensive line and take it to the next level," said Neuheisel. "Last season, a lot of our players saw their first significant action. Now we have some experience to build upon and this has become one of the most competitive positions on the field for us. Datone is healthy and can be one of the top ends in the Pac-10 and our leader in this area. The growth of our younger players like Holmes, Marsh, Owa, Tepa, Graham and Epenesa is going to be exciting to watch."
The Bruins return an exciting nucleus at the linebacker position, including three players with significant starting experience under their belts.
True senior Sean Westgate (5-11, 223), a standout performer on special teams his first two seasons, moved into the starting lineup in 2010 and finished second on the team with 90 tackles. He ranked eighth in the Pac-10 with 7.5 tackles per game and earned honorable mention all-conference honors.

Two redshirt freshmen will attempt to force themselves into the rotation at the outside spots this season. Aramide Olaniyan (6-2, 208) of Woodberry Forest, VA, caught the eye of the coaches while working on the scout teams this past season. He earned prep All-America honors as a senior. Eric Kendricks (6-1, 226) of Fresno, CA is a quick learner and impressed during his work in practices and on the scout teams last season. He was an All-Region performer as a prep senior.
Redshirt sophomore Isaiah Bowens (6-1, 235), one of the top linebackers in the West as a prep senior, is an outstanding prospect who will get a chance to show what he can do in the middle of the defense during Spring Practice.
Redshirt junior David Allen (6-2, 224) is a special teams standout who recorded two tackles in 2010. He will look to add depth at outside linebacker this year.
Redshirt sophomore Todd Golper (6-0, 240), will look to get back into the mix after redshirting in 2009 and sitting out most of 2010 due to injury. Redshirt freshman Jared Koster (6-1, 208) saw limited action on special teams before going down with an injury in the Houston game. He will be limited to non-contact drills during Spring.
Two newcomers will also try to make an impression during Spring Practice. True freshman Aaron Wallace (6-3, 230) from Rancho Bernardo HS in San Diego, enrolled at UCLA this past January. True sophomore RYAN HOFMEISTER (.6-2, 220), who played last season at Riverside City College, has enrolled for Spring Quarter.
Redshirt freshman walk-on Phillip Ruhl (6-0, 225) will compete to add depth in the middle.
"We had several players as this position, who had little or no previous starting experience, come through for us in a big way last season," Neuheisel said. "The future looks bright here and there are still several more talented young players anxious to get in the mix. Sean had a very productive season for us. Patrick was a force in the middle prior to his injury and Jordan came on and played with a passion and skill level normally seen in a much more experienced player. We feel that Glenn can come on to make a big contribution and we are looking forward to working with our talented youngsters during the Spring."
The Bruins return three starters in the secondary plus several talented reserves who gained valuable experience in 2010.
True senior All-American candidate Tony Dye (5-11, 205) returns after starting all 12 games at strong safety a year ago and leading the team with 96 tackles. His 8.0 tackle per game average ranked tied for fourth in the Pac-10. He also led the team with nine pass break ups.

Viney saw action in 12 games last season and made one start while racking up 13 tackles. Abbott, who was awarded a scholarship prior to the 2010 season, ranked seventh on the team in tackles with 34, including two for loss. He made five starts last season and appeared in all 12 contests.
Several safeties will compete for playing time as well as the vacant free safety spot. True junior safety Dalton Hilliard (6-0, 189) saw action in nine games on defense and special teams.

Redshirt freshman safety Tevin McDonald (6-0, 194) from Fresno, CA, impressed the coaching staff with his play during practices and will look to get in the mix.
A pair of youngsters will be looking to earn playing time at cornerback. Redshirt sophomore Brandon Sermons (5-11, 185) sat out last season to recover from a knee injury. He played in nine games in 2009, mostly on special teams. Redshirt freshman Anthony Jefferson (6-1, 183) from Los Angeles, CA is an excellent athlete who broke a foot at California and missed the remainder of the season. He will miss Spring Practice but should be ready for Fall camp.
Two non-scholarship performers, redshirt junior Jeff Dickmann (5-9, 190) and redshirt freshman Librado Barocio (5-8, 175), will add depth at cornerback while two other walkons, redshirt freshmen Josh Barut (6-0, 188) and Dylan Price (5-9, 208) will compete at safety.
"The secondary is another area of our team where there will plenty of competition for playing time," said the fourth-year Bruin coach. "Tony has improved each year in the program. At corner, Sheldon and Aaron each seemed to make more plays as the season unfolded.Veterans like Courtney, Dalton and Andrew along with youngsters like Dietrich, Alex and Stan, Brandon, Anthony and Tevin will continue to push for playing time. Everyone will earn their spot on the field in competitive environment."
This group is headed by redshirt junior punter Jeff Locke (6-1, 210) who established himself as one the nation's best with another outstanding season in 2010. However, there will be a need to find a new long snapper, placekicker and holder.
Locke has enjoyed plenty of success in first two seasons as the starting punter. In 2010, he led the Pac-10 and ranked fifth in the nation with a 45.8 average. The Bruins' net punt average of 41.3 ranked second in the nation. A year ago, Locke was one of the 10 semifinalists for the Ray Guy Award (only freshman on the list). In addition, he has handled the kickoff chores in his first two seasons on the field, recording 34 touchbacks overall. He will not participate in Spring Practice due to off-season hip surgery.
Redshirt freshman kicker Kip Smith (6-0, 218), who earned All-America honors at Legacy High in Bloomfield, CO as a prep senior, will get first crack at taking over the placekicking chores from record-setting four-year starter Kai Forbath.
Walkon redshirt junior tight end Kevin McDermott (6-3, 250) has served as the backup at long snapper the past two seasons and is the leading candidate at the position. He will get a long look this Spring.
Redshirt senior receiver/kick returner Josh Smith (6-0, 209) served as the main kickoff returner in his first season on the field as a Bruin in 2010. The transfer from Colorado ranked eighth in the Pac-10 with his 22.59 kickoff return average and 13th in the conference in all-purpose yards (91.9). Smith also caught 11 passes as a receiver.
True senior Taylor Embree (6-3, 205) returned 15 punts for a 6.9 average last season, which ranked him sixth in the Pac-10.
"Jeff has quickly become one of the elite punters in the nation," Neuheisel said. "We will look for Kip to step right in as our placekicker. This Spring we will put our placekicker, long snapper and holder candidates through the paces and see who has the best chemistry. Josh and Taylor gave us solid production in the kick return game last season and we will work to improve those units in the Spring as well."

According to the Canadian Press, Patricia Bezzoubenko of Vancouver, British Columbia won three gold medals in rhythmic gymnastics at the 2014 Commonwealth Games on Saturday. Bezzoubenko won the gold medal in the hoop, ball and clubs competitions.
Bezzoubenko, who has been living in Russia since she was four years of age and trains with the Russian national team, beat Francesca Jones of Wales to win her three gold medals. Bezzoubenko also won a bronze medal in the ribbon competition.
In the ball event, Bezzoubenko registered a score of 15.25 points, with Jones next at 14.875 points and Laura Halford of Wales winning bronze at 14.55 points. Bezzoubenko's point total in the clubs competition was 15.35 points, followed by Jones at 14.8 points. Themida Christodoulidou of Cyprus won the bronze medal with 14.3 points.
In the hoop event, Bezzoubenko made an early mistake, but rebounded with a strong finish to register a winning total of 14.8 points to beat Jones by a narrow five one-hundredths of a point. Wong Poh San of Malaysia won the bronze medal with a total of 14.65 points. Jones at 14.5 points and San at 14.25 points then beat Bezzoubenko in the ribbon competition, with Bezzoubenko registering a total of 13.8 points.
Interestingly though even though Bezzoubenko won five Commonwealth Games gold medals in Glasgow (also won gold in the team event on Thursday and the individual all-around on Friday), she does not have the Canadian record for the most gold medals won by a Canadian rhythmic gymnast at a single Commonwealth Games. At the 2006 Commonwealth Games in Melbourne, Alexandra Orlando of Toronto won six gold medals.
Even though Bezzoubenko came away with five gold medals in Glasgow, she is not yet a medal contender in rhythmic gymnastics at the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro. Bezzoubenko only finished 25th at the 2013 World Rhythmic Gymnastics Championships in Kiev, Ukraine. None of the 24 rhythmic gymnasts who finished ahead of Bezzoubenko were part of a Commonwealth nation. The bottom line is that eastern European nations dominate the sport of rhythmic gymnastics, giving Bezzoubenko a minimal chance to step on to the Olympic podium in two years.
Team Canada won three more medals on Saturday. James Paton of White Rock, British Columbia and Desmond Vamplew of Toronto won the silver medal in the Queen's prize pairs shooting competition. Canada also won a silver medal in the women's 4x200m freestyle swimming relay and a bronze medal by Ana Laura Portuondo-Isasi of La Prairie, Quebec in the women's 78kg judo competition.
Team Canada now has 16 medals--seven gold medals, three silver medals and six bronze medals. Canada sits in sixth place in the overall medal standings behind Australia at 52 medals, England at 45 medals, Scotland at 25 medals and Wales and India with 17 medals each.
