We're always happy to engage in the great cone versus cup debate, but we've also accepted that the choice is purely personal. We can't say we'd be able to accept that so easily in a discussion pitting these Ice Cream Spades ($12) against a regular old spoon. The blunt ends of these stainless steel treasures slice into ice cream like a knife through butter, but still maintain the bowl shape of the spoon for scooping and eating. We always argued for the cone, but maybe if we had these spades in our corner we'd be joining the other team.

Liwan Museum : Michelin's recommendations
Liwan Museum offers a convincing immersion into what was a wealthy residence during the colonial era (late 19C/early 20C) before the Revolution. The delicate glazing of the windows is striking, with stained glass filtering an iridescent light into the building. An oil lamp, record player and the bedroom furniture are all evidence of the western origins of the inhabitants, while the box of noodles in the kitchen, which would once have been filled by pedlars, is more Cantonese in style.

I always get great comments and people wanting to take a dish home if any happens to be left over. I have also made this using cider vinegar which gives it a great tangy flavor.

Happy Winter Solstice! (2012)
Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem:
"Now among His signs are the night and the day, as well as the sun and the moon: [hence,] adore not the sun or the moon, but prostrate yourselves in adoration before God, who has created them – if it is Him whom you [really] worship. And though some be too proud [to listen to this call], they who [in their hearts] are with thy Sustainer extol His limitless glory by night and by day, and never grow weary [thereof]."
~ Holy Qur'an 41:37-38 (M. Asad)
Happy Ramadan! 2012
Ramadan 2012
After consulting with the Amir of the Association of British Muslims, Sheikh Daoud Rosser-Owen and the most reliable astronomical data we have available to us, we conclude: The very earliest possibility to see the new moon in the extreme South West of the United Kingdom, will be on Friday evening (20.07.2012). Which means the first day of Ramadan will be on Saturday, should this indeed be the case.
Paul Salahuddin Armstrong
Co-Director, The Association of British Muslims.
"Qualified Muslim astronomers and reliable visibility forecasts indicate that on Thursday evening a sighting of the new crescent moon will be extremely improbable in all global regions, with the exception of South America and the South Pacific where sightings are possible but fairly unlikely."
~ Crescentwatch.org

The pre fixe prices do not include tax, gratuity, beverages and alcohol. Each set price usually includes an appetizer, entrée and dessert.
Sometimes, for an additional fee, individual restaurants may pair special beverages, alcohol, beer or wine flights with the pre fixe meal. Each restaurant is unique, so there is no harm asking your server about any other, additional specials.

I have a tablet and a normal PC. I have a lot of files on my normal pc that i would like to copy to my tablet. Both the systems are connected to the same WiFi network. Is there any way to use this WiFi network to transfer files from the normal PC to the tablet?
WiFi File Explorer is perfect for this! i'm using it right now, in fact! The newest version allows for uploading as well as downloading from PC to device, over wifi. I've been using this app for a while now, and i can honestly say it works perfectly, and there are good devs behind it that are updating with useful functions consistently.
I share a folder from my desktop and then use AndSMB on my Xoom to connect and copy files as needed. I have been satisfied with it so far.
The easiest way is probably via a shared folder. See Is there a way to mount a Windows shared drive so I can access those files on my phone? for details on that.
You could also run an FTP server on your PC and use an FTP client on your tablet.
Thanks for the answers. But I managed to solve it using some commands I found on the Ubuntu forums at canonical. Apparently, it is possible to connect the transformer via USB. But since it shows up as an mtp device instead of a normal storage device...Ubuntu was unable to recognize it. Once I installed the necessary drivers, it was possible to mount it like a normal storage device. Of course, the only inconvenience is that I would have to type the mount and dismount commands every time I plug and unplug the Asus transformer.
I chose to do a direct USB transfer instead of wifi, cos I simply found the wifi transfers too unreliable.
None the less, thanks to all the other answers as well. If anything I learned something new :-)

Ending today, March 4th, 2014 is the Greatest free party on the planet, according to most New Orleans residents. The shiny vestibules adorning city streets, people congregating in busy streets with strings of beads which keep on passing from person to person in a joyous occasion such as this...
Mardi Gras with it's music, parades, picnics, parades and excitement...it's one enormous occasion in New Orleans! Everybody is wearing purple, green, and gold, enhanced with long, sparkling strands of beads they've gotten from the excellent parade floats. Parade-goers sit on the "nonpartisan ground" tossing balls, playing music, having an outing, and viewing the swarms stroll by between parades. But what is this occasion really all about?
A considerable amount of New Orleans' organizations and essential avenues are essentially closed down, as individuals walk all around, always meeting new companions. You'll see insane ensembles and children all over the place! Where did this insanely rich party start and how did it get to the heartland of the Southern part of the US? This is Mardi Gras in New Orleans!
The beginnings of Mardi Gras could be followed to medieval Europe, passing through Rome and Venice in the seventeenth and eighteenth hundreds of years to the French House of the Bourbons. From here, the universal celebration of "Boeuf Gras," or fatted calf, accompanied France to her provinces.
On March 2, 1699, French-Canadian adventurer Jean Baptiste Le Moyne Sieur de Bienville landed at a plot of ground 60 miles straightforwardly south of New Orleans, and named it "Pointe du Mardi Gras" when his men acknowledged it was the eve of the bubbly occasion. Bienville additionally created "Fortress Louis de la Louisiane" (which is currently Mobile) in 1702. In 1703, the modest settlement of Fortress Louis de la Louisiane birthed America's first Mardi Gras.
In 1704, Mobile built a mysterious social order (Masque de la Mobile), like those that structure our current Mardi Gras krewes. It kept up until 1709. In 1710, the "Boeuf Gras Social Order or Society" was shaped and paraded from 1711 through 1861. The parade was held with a colossal bull's head pushed alone on wheels by 16 men. Later, Rex might parade with a real bull, hung in white and indicating the impending Lenten meat quick. This happened on Fat Tuesday.
New Orleans was made in 1718 by Bienville. By the 1730s, Mardi Gras was commended candidly in New Orleans, not with the parades we know today. In the early 1740s, Louisiana's governor, the Marquis de Vaudreuil, created rich social order balls, which turned into the model for the New Orleans Mardi Gras balls of today.
The earliest known reference to Mardi Gras "Carnival" shows up in a 1781 report to the Spanish pilgrim government. That year, the Perseverance Benevolent & Mutual Aid Association was the first of several clubs and jamboree associations founded in New Orleans.
By the late 1830s, New Orleans held road parades of maskers with carriages and horseback riders to celebrate Mardi Gras. Surprising gaslight lights, or "flambeaux," lit the route for the krewe's parts and loaned every occasion an energizing quality of sentiment and celebration. In 1856, six adolescent Mobile locals framed the Mistick Krewe of Comus, summoning John Milton's legend Comus to speak to their association. Comus carried enchantment and riddle to New Orleans with stunning buoys (known as tableaux autos) and veiled balls. Krewe parts remained nameless, and right up to present time, Comus still rides!
In 1870, Mardi Gras' second Krewe, the Twelfth Night Revelers, was structured. This is likewise the initially recorded record of Mardi Gras "throws."
Daily papers started to proclaim Mardi Gras occasions ahead of time, and they even printed "Carnival Edition" lithographs of parades' awesome buoy plans (after they moved, obviously - topics and buoys were dependably painstakingly protected before the parade). At the outset, these generations were little, and items couldn't be unmistakably seen. Be that as it may starting in 1886 with Proteus' parade "Visions of Other Worlds," these chromolithographs could be prepared in full, immersed color, doing equity to the buoy and outfit outlines of Carlotta Bonnecase, Charles Briton and B.A. Wikstrom. Each of these creators' work was carried to life by gifted Parisian paper-mache' craftsman Georges Soulie', who for 40 years was answerable for making all of Fair's buoys and processional outfits.
1872 was the year that a gathering of specialists designed a Ruler of Fair, Rex, to manage the first daytime parade. To honor the visiting Russian Grand Duke Alexis Romanoff, the representatives presented Romanoff's family shades of purple, green and gold as Festival's authority colors. Purple stands for justice; gold for power; and green for faith. This was additionally the Mardi Gras season that Carnival's improbable song of devotion, "If Ever I Cease to Love," was established, due to some extent to the Duke's affection for the tune.
The accompanying year, glides started to be built totally in New Orleans rather than France, building up and finally finishing with Comus' radiant "The Missing Links to Darwin's Origins of Species," in which outlandish paper-mache' creature outfits served as the groundwork for Comus to ridicule both Darwin's hypothesis and nearby authorities, including Senator Henry Warmoth. In 1875, Representative Warmoth signed the "Mardi Gras Act," making Fat Tuesday a lawful occasion in Louisiana, which it still is.
Like Comus and the Twelfth Night Revelers, most Mardi Gras krewes today created from private social clubs with prohibitive enrollment strategies. Since these parade associations are totally subsidized by their members, New Orleanians call it the "Greatest Free Show on Earth!"
If you perchance find yourself in the midst of the Mardi Gras madness in New Orleans, here's the parade schedule so that you know what to expect and when.

Which cards can be customized?
Any activated M&T Credit Card, M&T Debit Card, Bills Debit Card, Ravens Debit Card, Monster Mile® Debit Card, or M&T Business Debit Card, with linked M&T accounts that are open and in good standing, may be eligible for consideration. Please note: If you are customizing a Bills, Ravens or Monster Mile Debit Card, your replacement card will not feature the Bills, Ravens or Monster Mile logos.
Some foreign addresses may not be eligible to use the service. M&T cards that are not eligible for this service include, but are not limited to, M&T ATM Card, M&T ATM Card for Business, Portfolio Management Account card, and Health Savings Account card. If you do not currently have an eligible card, you must first request an M&T Debit Card, receive it in the mail, and then upgrade the design.
What are my custom card design options?
You can customize the design of your card in two different ways. With the "
Custom Background
" template, you can upload a digital photo or choose one from our image gallery to showcase across the background of your card. With the "
Identify Yourself
" template, you can upload a digital photo of yourself in the upper right hand corner of your card. Please note: The "
Identify Yourself
" card is not a form of photo identification. There is no guarantee or expectation that merchants will use a photo on your card as an added form of security.
What types of images are in the image gallery?
There are hundreds of images available in the image gallery throughout the following categories: Favorites | Colors & Patterns | Flowers | Destinations & Landscapes | Sports & Hobbies | Animals | Patriotic | Cultural & Heritage | Music | Professional.

How much does customizing the design of my card cost?
There is no fee applicable between May 1 – June 30, 2016. Afterwards, a $2.95 image set-up fee for each newly approved custom card design may apply. The image set-up fee will be automatically deducted from the primary checking account linked to the card you want to customize. One fee will be charged per approved card design. Replacement cards will not incur this fee, if the custom design remains unchanged.
Will I be charged for card replacements if my card has a custom image?
The image set-up fee will not be charged on subsequent card issuances where the image has not been altered or changed (lost/stolen replacements, damaged card replacements, expiration date changes, etc.).
If I order a custom card, will my new card come with chip technology?
Yes, all new cards come with an encrypted microchip that helps protect you from fraud and counterfeit transactions when used at a chip-enabled terminal.

People have sought out higher learning since circa 800 A.D. But that's about the only thing that has remained the same. From who is enrolling to which degree programs are offered to where the best degree programs are located, education has vastly changed. The infographic below showcases many of those changes. Degrees titles have evolved from "Master" to "Doctor." The degrees themselves have gone from those focusing on "rhetoric" to focusing on "computer science." More women now enroll and graduate than men. People no longer even need to "go" to college as online education becomes more readily available from accredited universities such as American Intercontinental University. Educational options in this modern era are nearly limitless.

risotto al barolo + green crostini
Of course, I am not eating at the restaurant proper, but one of the best kept secrets on 10th Avenue — the Enoteca inside. Forty-one dollars buys you four courses, and an extra nineteen buy you a sommelier chosen wine pairing for each course. (Try not to groan when they bring you a Bastianich wine. I swear, it's very good.) The food is some of the best Italian I've had in this city, comparable only to Al Di La in Park Slope, and it impressed both my parents when we went for their anniversary and Alex's family, for his father's birthday. I've tried the veal ravioli with cauliflower, gnocchi Bolognese, pork marsala and even a teeny, tiny whole chicken–no eggplant parmesan or meatballs as far as the eye can see. I may be tired of this guy's overexposure, but the food goes a long way towards making up for it.
Suddenly, the Batali name is not just associated in my mind with unscheduled drop-ins and egregious consumption, but good, no great food. Thus, when Julia Moskin (we love her here, by the way — remember this?) spent this Wednesday trying to cure us of this ridiculous notion that one should only cook with expensive wine–bravo!–and ended it on a Batali note, I knew it would be just matter of days before I made his risotto al Barolo, but uh, with some $10 sangiovese, and only in the double-digits because we wanted to drink it, too. Be not turned back by its muddy, beige color and the low-quality of these snapshots (hey, we were trying to get to the eating!), it's actually a lovely, subtle pink and utterly delicious. We had it with some green and white asparagus, a mixed salad and yet another Batali inspiration–green crostini, though taken in an entirely different direction by me. His recipes are unfussy and, thus far, absolutely perfect and I suspect I'll be using them again and again.
Anyway, that I've had my great confessional, this is probably a good time to admit that I've also been coveting his both his risotto pot and grill pan. I think they're absolutely stunning. Also, those wooden spoons. Not the Crocs, though. A girl's gotta draw the line somewhere. Fortunately for us, though, it's after the risotto.
Risotto al Barolo
Adapted from Mario Batali
Yield: 6 to 8 first-course servings.
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, finely diced
1 1/2 cups arborio rice
1 cup Barolo or other dry red wine
6 cups chicken stock, preferably homemade, or low-sodium, canned
3 tablespoons cold, unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese, more for serving.
1. In a wide, deep skillet, heat oil until very hot but not smoking. Add onion and cook, stirring, until softened and translucent, 8 to 10 minutes. Do not brown; reduce heat as needed. Add rice and stir with a wooden spoon until opaque and slightly toasted.
2. Meanwhile, heat the stock in a saucepan and keep it just below a simmer. Add wine and a ladleful of hot stock and cook, stirring often, until liquid is absorbed. Continue stirring and adding hot stock a ladleful at a time, always waiting until liquid is almost completely absorbed before adding more. Cook until rice is tender and creamy but not mushy, about 20 minutes. Toward the end of cooking time, rice will quickly soften, so stir constantly and taste often. Turn off heat and stir in butter. Stir in cheese and serve with additional Parmesan.
Green Crostini
Sort of wildly interpreted from Mario Batali
Note: We updated this recipe in April 2009.
1 garlic clove, peeled and smashed
1 cup large green pitted olives
1 tablespoon capers, rinsed and drained
1 15-ounce can of artichoke hearts, drained
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
8 large slices of crusty bread
1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. In a food processor, process the garlic, olives, capers, artichoke hearts and olive oil to a coarse paste.
2. Toast the bread on the oven rack for 6 minutes, or until crisp and browned. Spread the olive paste thickly over the toasts and serve.
Do ahead: The olive paste can be refrigerated for 2 days. Let return to room temperature before using.

T-Mobile to launch the Samsung Vibrant 4G on February 23
The Samsung Vibrant 4G, of which we first heard about last week, might become available at T-Mobile USA starting next month.
According to TmoNews, the fourth largest US mobile carrier plans to launch the new Vibrant on February 23.
The Vibrant 4G looks like the original Vibrant, but it comes with Android 2.2, a front-facing camera for video calling, and support for T-Mo's HSPA+ network.
There's no word yet on the new smartphone's price, but it could be $199 on contract (the old Vibrant currently costs $99.99 on contract).
An unannounced Samsung T529 Sienna also appears in the document above. It should be released by T-Mobile on February 9. We don't have any other details on this phone at the moment.

I began photographing the upper reaches of the Doan Brook watershed in 1996. This watershed, better known as the Shaker Lakes after the Shaker peoples who first settled the region, forms part of the natural drainage basin of several of Cleveland's east-side suburbs. It offers lake, gorge, river, waterfall, marsh, field, and forest, all undergoing the full set of seasonal changes evident in northeast Ohio.
It is nearby and convenient for fulfilling the inspirations of a fledgling photographer who lives near a city instead of on the doorstep of a national park. I can get up and make a visit to this area almost any day before work, or just after work, and that makes it possible to gain the deep acquaintance needed to know when and where to be to take best advantage of the light.
The Shaker Lakes region was nearly paved over in the 1960's/70's to make way for the Clark and Lee freeways. A grass roots citizen-led fight stopped the building of the freeways, and as a result we have the natural preserve shown in these images.

J.K. Rowling's first post-Potter novel The Casual Vacancy is to be made into a BBC television series
BBC One and BBC Drama have commissioned an adaptation of J.K. Rowling's first adult novel The Casual Vacancy.
The series, expected to air in 2014, will be set in the fictional village of Pagfoot, where local councillor Barry Fairbrother (who, Rowling confirmed at Cheltenham Literature Festival, was not purposefully named to rhyme with Harry) dies, leaving behind a small ripple-pool of consequences for his constituents.
Rowling said she is thrilled that the BBC commissioned an adaptation of her novel: "I always felt that, if it were to be adapted, this novel was best suited to television and I think the BBC is the perfect home," Rowling said. The author will collaborate closely with the series, with the number and length of the episodes "to be decided once the creative adaptation process has formally begun," according to the BBC.

Final Stats
DeKALB, Ill. - Northern Illinois faced Kent State (10-7-0, 5-4-0 in the MAC) on Friday night in a home match. It was the first home game that the women's soccer team played under the newly installed lights at the NIU Soccer Complex this season. The game was the very definition of a back-and-forth affair. Both teams applied pressure when they could, and in the end, NIU's pressure proved greater. The Huskies won 2-1 to keep rolling at home this season (5-0-1). NIU is now 3-4-3 in the MAC with more than a full-game lead over ninth place teams Toledo, Buffalo, and Akron.
The Huskies did not have an optimal start to the game. In just the second minute of play, Golden Flash forward Jessacca Gironda scored her 11th goal of the season to give her team an early 1-0 lead. After that, the game was a battle of possession. Shots were at a premium for both sides as the defensive units were excellent. In the process of the possession war, Jackie Wandt (Brookfield, Wis./Brookfield East) went down hard and sustained a leg injury after getting tangled up with a Kent State player.
"We don't know the exact severity of it right now," said Head Coach John Ross. "It's an injury to her shin. We'll have a better idea of it on Monday."
After the injury, the Huskies mounted their comeback. In the 38th minute, Cori Frankenberg (Appleton, Wis./Appleton East) scored her third goal of the season. Coming into this game, the Huskies were 5-0-1 in the previous six games that Frankenberg had tallied a score in, dating back to last season. With the score tied, the Huskies gained a chance to keep her streak alive. The teams went into halftime in a 1-1 tie.
The second half was defined by one crucial shot attempt and an exciting finish. The scoring attempt came during the 59th minute. A foul by the Golden Flashes set up a penalty kick for Allie McBride (Naperville, Ill./Neuqua Valley). McBride shot to the right, opposing goaltender Stephanie Senn dove to the right, but she was late to react, and McBride had her second goal of the season, giving the Huskies a 2-1 lead. "I went into the shot only thinking positive thoughts," said McBride. "You need to stay positive in spots like that to give yourself a chance."
"Both teams played a great game," said Ross. "We came into this match with an offensive gameplan of getting behind their defense and striking from there. Our defense was great too. It's nice to know we can rely on them to keep a lead for us."
The Huskies will face the Ohio Bobcats (7-5-5, 3-3-3 in the MAC) in another home game on Sunday, October 27. Ohio ended up winning its game against Toledo today, 2-1. As such, the Huskies remain just slightly behind the Bobcats in the MAC. With a win on Sunday, the Huskies can move up to seventh place in the conference. Depending on how the rest of the season goes, NIU could finish as high as sixth in the MAC.

Aug 26, 2013
THE GAME: The University of Alabama football team opens the 2013 season on Saturday, August 31, when it takes on Virginia Tech in the Georgia Dome at Atlanta, Ga. The Chick-Fil-A Kickoff Classic will mark the 13th time the teams have met on the gridiron, with Alabama leading the all-time series, 11-1. The game will be televised nationally on ESPN with kickoff set for 4:30 p.m. CT. Sean McDonough will serve as the play-by-play announcer, with Chris Spielman at his side as the color analyst. The two will be joined by sideline reporter Shannon Spake. Eli Gold and Phil Savage will handle the radio call on the Crimson Tide Sports Network, with Chris Stewart serving as sideline reporter.
MAKING HISTORY: Alabama has laid claim to three of the last four BCS National Championships and now boast 15 national championships in the program's history. The Tide won in 2009 and then went back-to-back in 2011 and 2012. The back-to-back titles are the first in the BCS era and the first since Nebraska went back to back in 1994-95. The Cornhuskers are also the last team to win three out of four national titles. Nebraska won consensus titles in 1994 and 1995 and shared the 1997 championship with Michigan. The last team to win three of four consensus national championships was Notre Dame who captured the 1946, 1947 and 1949 championships. Minnesota is the last team to win three straight national championships (1934-36) with only the 1936 title coming in the era of the Associated Press college football poll. The Crimson Tide also won three titles in five years from 1961 to 1965.
PRESEASON RANKINGS: Alabama opens the 2013 season ranked first in the Associated Press and USA TODAY Coaches' preseason polls, while Virginia Tech comes in receiving votes in both.
VIRGINIA TECH: The Hokies are coming off a 7-6 2012 season and a Russell Athletic Bowl victory in overtime against Rutgers. Under 27th-year head coach Frank Beamer, Virginia Tech is 216-104-2, with four BCS bowl appearances in the last six seasons. The Hokies have the sixth most wins in the country since 2001. Virginia Tech enters the 2013 season returning 15 starters and 50 letterwinnners.
SERIES HISTORY: Alabama holds a commanding 11-1 edge in the all-time series with Virginia Tech. The two teams last met in a familiar situation as they opened the 2009 season in the Chick-Fil-A Kickoff Classic in Atlanta. In that contest, the fifth-ranked Crimson Tide downed the seventh-ranked Hokies, 34-24. Alabama won the first 10 games in the series that began with a 9-6 Tide win in 1932. Alabama then posted shutouts over Tech in 1933 (27-0) and 1952 (33-0). Alabama and Virginia Tech met six times from 1968 to 1979 with two games in Birmingham, one in Blacksburg and four in Tuscaloosa. The largest margin of victory for the Crimson Tide came in 1973 when UA posted a 77-6 win in Tuscaloosa. Several of the Tide's all-time single-game records that were set that day still stand, including 833 total yards, 11.9 yards per play, 748 rushing yards and 11.9 yards per rush.
NEXT GAME: Alabama will have a bye before opening Southeastern Conference play on the road at Texas A&M. The two top-10 teams will meet on Saturday, Sept. 14, at College Station. Kickoff is set for 2:30 p.m. CT on CBS.
ALABAMA DEGREES: Alabama's success on the field over the past six seasons under the direction of head coach Nick Saban has coincided with the Crimson Tide's success in the classroom. The 2013 squad features 13 players that already have degrees in hand as the 2013 season begins (see chart below). That number is equal to Ole Miss for the most in the Football Bowl Subdivision in 2013. Over the past five seasons (2008-12) Alabama has seen 72 players compete for the Crimson Tide after already having graduated, following the Virginia Tech game that number will increase to 85.
NFL DRAFT: The Crimson Tide saw nine former UA players selected in the 2013 NFL Draft, including first-round picks Dee Milliner (ninth overall to the New York Jets), Chance Warmack (10th overall to the Tennessee Titans) and D.J. Fluker (11th overall to the San Diego Chargers). Eddie Lacy was next to go in the second round as the 61st overall pick to the Green Bay Packers. The Tide had two drafted in the fourth round with Nico Johnson going to the Kansas City Chiefs as the 99th overall pick and Barrett Jones to the St. Louis Rams as the 113th overall pick. Two more Crimson Tide defensive linemen, Jesse Williams and Quinton Dial, were taken in round five. Williams was chosen by the Seattle Seahawks with the fourth pick of round five, No. 137 overall. Dial was drafted by the San Francisco 49ers at No. 157 overall and No. 24 in the fifth round. Rounding out the 2013 NFL draft for Alabama was Michael Williams who went in the seventh round as the 211th overall pick to the Detroit Lions.
RETURNING SUCCESS: Alabama returns 13 starters and 48 lettermen from its 2012 squad that won the BCS National Championship, finishing with a record of 13-1. The Crimson Tide returns six starters on offense, including Cyrus Kouandjio, Anthony Steen, AJ McCarron, Amari Cooper, Kevin Norwood and Christion Jones, while the defense returns seven starters, including Ed Stinson, C.J. Mosley, Adrian Hubbard, Ha Ha Clinton-Dix, Trey Depriest, Xzavier Dickson and Deion Belue.
NEUTRAL SITES: Alabama is 73-46-4 (.610) in neutral site games. The list includes all Alabama-Auburn games not played on campus, including Legion Field from 1948-88. The Crimson Tide played three neutral site contests last season, opening the year with a 41-14 win over No. 8 Michigan at Cowboys Stadium. In the postseason Alabama downed No. 3 Georgia, 32-28 at the SEC Championship in Atlanta and No. 1 Notre Dame, 42-14, at the Discover BCS National Championship game at Sun Life Stadium.
DOME SWEET DOME: Alabama is 14-5-1 (.725) in domed stadiums, including a 5-0 mark since 2009, and 6-2 in Coach Saban's tenure. The Crimson Tide had two appearances in a dome last season with the opener against Michigan at Cowboys Stadium and the SEC Championship against Georgia in the Georgia Dome.
SUCCESS ON THE ROAD: As successful as Alabama has been at Bryant-Denny Stadium in the Saban era, the Crimson Tide has been almost as effective away from home. Alabama begins the 2013 season with a 14-game winning streak away from Bryant-Denny Stadium. The 14-game streak includes both true road games and neutral-site games and dates back to a 24-21 loss at LSU on Nov. 6, 2010. The streak also includes victories over Notre Dame (Miami Gardens), LSU (Baton Rouge and New Orleans), Michigan (Dallas), at Penn State, at Florida, at Arkansas and at Auburn. The current streak is the second-longest of its kind in Alabama history behind a 19-game streak that began on Sept. 24, 1977, and ended on Nov. 1, 1980. Since 2008, the Crimson Tide is 29-4 (.879) away from Bryant-Denny Stadium, including a 4-1 record in bowl games. During that time, Alabama is 32-3 at Bryant-Denny Stadium (.914).
ALABAMA EQUALS MOST WINS SINCE 2008: Dating back to the start of the 2008 season, Alabama has won 61 games, which is tied for the most in the Football Bowl Subdivision with Boise State. The Crimson Tide won 12 games in 2008, followed by a perfect 14-0 record in 2009, a 10-3 mark in 2010 and a 12-1 record in 2011. Alabama finished 13-1 in 2012. Oregon is third during that period with 56 victories.
10-WIN SEASONS: Alabama reached the 10-win milestone for the fifth consecutive season in 2012, boasting a 13-1 record. In 117 seasons, the Tide has won 10 or more games 32 times, two back of Oklahoma (34) for the most 10-win seasons in college football. Alabama has produced seven 10-win seasons since the 2002 season (2002, 2005, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012). Tide head coach Nick Saban is the 11th coach in school history to lead his team to a 10-win season and is the fifth coach in school history to have more than one 10-win season.
RUSHING TO SUCCESS: Alabama rushed for 350 yards against Georgia on Dec. 1, in the SEC Championship Game and 265 yards versus Notre Dame in the BCS National Championship Game last season. The Crimson Tide is 51-0 since the start of the 2008 season when rushing for at least 140 yards. The Tide has averaged 84.57 yards per game (592 yards) in its seven losses since 2008, with the highest rushing total during those losses coming against Florida in the 2008 SEC Championship Game (136).
DEFENSIVE SUCCESS: Alabama has led the Southeastern Conference in total defense for the last five seasons. In the 60 seasons prior no team has led its respective league in total defense for more than two straight years.
10 POINTS OR FEWER: Under head coach Nick Saban, the Crimson Tide has held opponents to 10 points or fewer 40 times since the start of the 2007 season and seven times in 2012, with the most recent coming on Nov. 24 against Auburn (49-0). The Tide also shut out four 2012 opponents (Western Kentucky, Arkansas, Western Carolina and Auburn). Alabama was successful in holding opponents to 0-10 points in nine 2011 games. In 2010, the Tide held opponents to 10 points or less eight times and limited opponents to that range seven times in both 2008 and '09. In 2007, Alabama posted two games in which it held opponents to 0-10 points. Alabama has shut out the opposition 10 times during the Saban era.
HOLDING OPPONENTS UNDER 300: In head coach Nick Saban's 81-game tenure at Alabama, the Crimson Tide has limited opponents to under 300 yards of total offense 52 times, or 64.2 percent of the time.
HOLDING OPPONENTS UNDER 200: During head coach Nick Saban's last 68 games at the Capstone, the Crimson Tide defense has held the opposing offense to fewer than 200 yards of total offense 26 times, including five times last season. In 2011, Alabama accomplished the feat eight times, limiting Kent State to 90 yards and LSU to only 92 yards in the BCS Championship Game (the second and third times a Saban defense has limited its opponent to less than 100 yards of total offense). Alabama's best came in 2009 when the Tide held Chattanooga to 84 yards of total offense. The Tide held opponents under 200 yards three times in 2010, four times in 2009 and six times in 2008.
DEFENSIVE RANKINGS: The Crimson Tide defense was No. 1 in all five major defensive categories in 2011 and held that ranking in three categories during the 2012 season. Alabama finished as the nation's top total defense (250 ypg), scoring defense (10.93 ppg) and rushing defense (76.36 ypg). The Crimson Tide finished seventh nationally in passing defense (173.64 ypg) and seventh in passing efficiency defense (103.72). The Tide also led the nation in fewest first downs allowed per game (13.71).
RUSHING DEFENSE: Limiting opposing running backs to fewer than 100 yards is nothing new for the Crimson Tide. Alabama has surrendered only 12 individual 100-yard rushing games dating back to the 2005 season, a mark that leads the nation. Since head coach Nick Saban's arrival, the Tide has allowed only seven players to rush for more than 100 yards in a game: Georgia's Todd Gurley (122 yards on Dec. 1, 2012), LSU's Jeremy Hill (107 on Nov. 3, 2012), Georgia Southern's Dominique Swope (153 on Nov. 19, 2011), Tennessee's Tauren Poole (117 on Oct. 23, 2010), Mississippi's BenJarvus Green-Ellis (131 on Oct. 13, 2007), Houston's Anthony Alridge (100 on Oct. 6, 2007) and Darren McFadden of Arkansas (195 on Sept. 15, 2007).
TOUGH SLEDDING ON THE GROUND: Alabama leads the nation in giving up the fewest rushing touchdowns since the start of the 2005 season, surrendering only 60. Since head coach Nick Saban arrived in 2007, the Crimson Tide has allowed 42 rushing touchdowns while Ohio State is second (54). Alabama surrendered 10 rushing touchdowns in 2012.
YARDS HARD TO COME BY: Since the 2011 Capital One Bowl against Michigan State, the Alabama defense has not surrendered yards easily. Over that 28-game span, the Tide defense has allowed only five opposing teams to reach 300 total yards: 341 by Georgia Southern in 2011, 435 by LSU, 418 by Texas A&M, 394 by Georgia in 2012 and 302 by Notre Dame in 2012 (Jan. 7, 2013). Teams have been held under 200 total yards 14 times and below 100 total yards twice. Rushing against the Tide has been even more difficult over that span, as teams have been held to under 100 rushing yards 22 times, under 50 yards 12 times and in negative yardage twice.
MOSLEY LEADING ALABAMA DEFENSE: Linebacker and 2012 Butkus Award finalist C.J. Mosley developed into one of the best playmakers on the 2012 Alabama defense. The Theodore, Ala., native finished with a team-best 107 tackles, eight tackles for loss (-52 yards), four sacks (-34 yards), two interceptions (one returned for a touchdown), three quarterback hurries, two pass breakups, one forced fumble and one recovered fumble Mosley was a unanimous first-team All-American and All-SEC selection.
HUBBARD BECOMING PASS RUSHING THREAT: Outside linebacker Adrian Hubbard developed into one of the Crimson Tide's top pass rushing threats in 2012. He led the team with 11 tackles for loss (-54 yards) and seven sacks (-44 yards). Hubbard was seventh on the team with 41 total tackles while adding four quarterback hurries and a team-best three forced fumbles. Hubbard closed the season with a sack in each of the final three games for the Tide. He ranked tied for eighth in the SEC (.50 sacks per game) and tied for 73rd nationally.

Since the 2009 season, Alabama has passed for 11,875 while rushing for 11,362, a difference of only 513 yards.

The Crimson Tide surpassed the 1973 team, which scored 477 points and 61 offensive touchdowns. With 6,237 yards of total offense, the 2012 team also set the school record for total offense (was 5,773 yards in 2010). The Crimson Tide's 445.5 yards of total offense per game is the second-best in school history, while the 31 passing touchdowns is the most all-time and the 37 rushing touchdowns are sixth. Alabama averaged 6.95 yards per play in 2012, good for second in the school record book.
COOPER HAD STELLAR FRESHMAN YEAR: Wide receiver Amari Cooper turned in a fantastic freshman season, breaking Julio Jones' (2008) freshman receiving records. Cooper finished with 59 catches (Jones has 58 in 2008) for 1,000 yards (Jones has 924 yards in 2008) and 11 touchdowns (a school record). The 11 receiving touchdowns broke Al Lary's school record of 10 set in 1950. Cooper's 59 catches in 2012 rank sixth in school history while his 1,000 yards is tied for the fourth-best season in program history.
McCARRON SET SEASON TD PASS MARK: AJ McCarron's 30 touchdown passes in 2012 set an Alabama season record. He tossed a 29-yard strike to Christion Jones against Western Carolina on Nov. 17 to surpass Greg McElroy's 20 in 2010. McElroy's mark was set in 13 games that season; McCarron moved past it in 11 games. He threw four touchdown passes in the 2013 BCS National Championship Game to post his total of 30, which ranked third in the SEC in 2012.
THE MAKINGS OF A WINNER: In his third year as Alabama's quarterback, AJ McCarron has built a 25-2 record as a starter and led his team to back-to-back BCS National Championships. He has thrown 49 touchdown passes in his career against just eight interceptions, which averages out to one interception every 86.3 attempts, the best in SEC history by more than 24 attempts (Tim Tebow - 1:62.2). In 2012, McCarron threw 30 touchdown passes while tossing only three interceptions (one every 104.7 attempts) and led the nation in passing efficiency at 175.28. He is the first quarterback in Alabama history to lead his team to two national titles.
QUARTERBACK WINS: AJ McCarron enters his senior season with 25 career wins and a .926 winning percentage. He currently ranks second in winning percentage at The University of Alabama and second in Southeastern Conference history. Only Jay Barker's .934 winning percentage betters McCarron. Barker is also the school's leader in career victories with 35 (35-1-1 record). McCarron ranks fifth in career victories entering the Virginia Tech game with 25. He is one win shy of Pat Trammell (26) in fourth and five wins back of Harry Gilmer in third (30). In SEC history, Florida's Danny Wuerffel is third in winning percentage at .903 (32-3-1) and Georgia's Buck Belue is fourth at .900 (27-3).
BACK-TO-BACK QUARTERBACKS: AJ McCarron has led Alabama to back-to-back BCS National Championships, becoming just the sixth quarterback to do so in the modern era of college football. The winners of back-to-back titles include: Notre Dame's Johnny Lujack (1946-47), Nebraska's Jerry Tagge (1970-71), Oklahoma's Steve Davis (1974-75), Nebraska's Tommy Frazier (1994-95) and Southern California's Matt Leinart (2003-04). No player has ever led his team to three straight national championships, although Lujack did lead the Fighting Irish to three titles in his career (1943, 1946 and 1947).
EFFICIENT IN PASSING GAME: AJ McCarron finished the season ranked No. 1 nationally in passing efficiency with a 175.28 mark. He is the first Alabama player to lead the nation in passing efficiency. He tossed 30 touchdowns with only three interceptions (314 pass attempts) in 2012, completing 67.2 percent of his passes for 2,933 yards.
YELDON SHINES IN DEBUT SEASON: Running back T.J. Yeldon finished second on the team and sixth in the SEC with 1,108 yards rushing on 175 carries and 12 touchdowns. Yeldon became the first Alabama true freshman to rush for over 1,000 yards in a season and the first to rush for more than 100 yards in his debut, in a win over Michigan, finishing with 111 yards and one rushing touchdown. Yeldon gained 144 yards at Missouri and followed that with 129 at Tennessee. In the postseason, Yeldon went for 153 yards and a score against Georgia in the SEC title game and then 108 yards and a touchdown vs. Notre Dame in the BCS National Championship Game. He is the seventh Alabama running back to crack the century mark since head coach Nick Saban arrived in 2007. Mark Ingram was the previous true freshman to gain at least 95 yards in his debut, running for 96 against Clemson in the 2008 season opener.
BALL PROTECTION: Alabama has protected the football better than any team in the country over the past five years. In its past 68 games, the Tide has turned the ball over only 72 times (42 fumbles, 30 interceptions) for 1.06 turnovers per game, better than Ohio State's second-best 1.23 (79 turnovers, 64 games). Since 2009, that mark is even better as the Tide has turned the ball over only 53 times in 54 games (0.98/gm). Since 2009, UA starting quarterbacks have thrown an impressively low 17 interceptions in 1,290 attempts (one INT every 75.9 attempts). Dating back to the 2009 season, the top two running backs in the rotation have lost a fumble only seven times. Over that 68-game span, the Tide's top two running backs have recorded 1,448 touches - better than 200 touches (206.9) per lost fumble.
Mandell sets School Record: Punter Cody Mandell had his finest season for the Tide in 2012, averaging 44.3 yards per punt on 50 attempts to set a school record for punting average for a minimum of 50 attempts. He placed 19 of 50 punts inside the 20-yard line and had 14 punts of 50-plus yards, including a season-long 61-yarder against Mississippi State and a 60-yarder against Texas A&M.
53 NATIONAL TV APPEARANCES IN 69 GAMES: Alabama's appearance on ESPN in the 2013 Chick-Fil-A Kickoff Classic is the 53rd nationally televised game since the start of the 2008 season for the Crimson Tide.

Perhaps one of the most ambivalent things about putting code on GitHub is that it's more or less an open project. It's great that people (including yourself) can continue to work on it, but it seems to lack closure so that you can move on with your life.
So one of the things that I've been missing in my
BindableBase class is property coercion, a la dependency properties. It's a pretty smart idea; you can keep values in a valid state without pushing change notification. Unfortunately, there are some problems that crop up pretty quickly in
INotifyPropertyChanged based view models. Continue reading "Coercing ViewModel Values with INotifyPropertyChanged"

Bowling, fencing, triathlon and rowing. Which one of these doesn't belong with the others? The answer is triathlon, but why? The other three sports are sports for women officially sanctioned by the NCAA. This week, however, that could change.
The NCAA Convention is taking place on January 15-18, 2014 in San Diego and there is a movement to vote triathlon as an NCAA Emerging Sport for Women. USA Triathlon (USAT), the governing body for the sport, has backed this campaign and you can help.
The first step is to make your voice heard. An online petition is available at Change.org. Click here to view the petition.
Second, educate yourself on the reasons why we should support this so you can tell others. Among the reasons USAT lists:
- Triathlon is the fastest-growing sport in the US Olympic movement.
- USAT has held Collegiate National Championships since 1992 and nearly 200 clubs already exist.
- Triathlon is an Olympic sport with broad national participation, allowing schools to attract a unique set of elite student-athletes not yet being served.

Third, evangelize. Speak up using social media. Spread the word with the hashtag #NCAATriathlon on Twitter and Facebook. Share the USAT page or this article on your social media. Share the link to the petition.
If you have questions, suggestions or stories to share, please send Alan an email. To stay up on triathlon news, events and articles, follow on Twitter @FLTriathlon.

Background: Early drug therapy in patients with ST-elevation infarction is essential for improved short- and long-term outcomes. Most of the drugs used currently have been extensively studied in the era prior to reperfusion therapies, and thus it is important to assess the value of these drugs in today's clinical practice and compare the results with those of randomized trials. Objectives: The study assessed the effects of age, gender, risk factors, reperfusion therapy and early drug therapy in patients with acute myocardial infarction with ST elevation or new left bundle-branch block on in-hospital mortality. Methods: The analysis of drug administration and in-hospital mortality is based on the AMIS Plus project, a registry of acute coronary syndromes in Switzerland since 1997. Data from 7,279 patients admitted to participating hospitals between 1997 and 2002 were analyzed, and the effect of factors and drug therapies on in-hospital mortality was assessed by logistic regression analysis. Results: Age and diabetes were identified as factors associated with a higher likelihood of in-hospital mortality, while a significant and important reduction of in-hospital mortality was due to the use of thrombolytic therapy or primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) [relative risk reduction (RRR) of 31%, odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval: 0.69; 0.54-0.87; p = 0.002 for thrombolysis, RRR of 34%; OR 0.66; 0.44-0.99; p = 0.044 for PCI]. Early administration of aspirin or ADP antagonists is associated with a risk reduction of in-hospital mortality by 36% (OR 0.63; 0.45-0.89; p = 0.009) and 50% (OR 0.49; 0.35-0.70; p < 0.001), respectively. The use of unfractionated heparin did not reduce in-hospital mortality. Administration of ACE inhibitors, nitrates or beta-blockers reduced the relative risk of in-hospital death by 40% (OR 0.60; 0.49-0.75; p = 0.009), 42% (OR 0.58; 0.46-0.72; p < 0.001) and 54% (OR 0.46; 0.37-0.57; p < 0.001), respectively. Less frequent use of reperfusion therapies and beta-blockers was documented for older patients. Gender was not a determining factor for in-hospital survival. Conclusion: Early administration of aspirin or ADP inhibition with ticlopidine or clopidogrel as well as the early use of beta-blockers, nitrates and ACE inhibitors had a beneficial effect on in-hospital mortality in the reperfusion era with either thrombolytics or PCI. The association of a beneficial effect of ADP inhibition was more pronounced than that found in randomized trials for non-ST-elevation infarction. However, it cannot be excluded that patients with a lower risk for in-hospital death who were selected for early invasive assessment received more frequently ADP inhibitors and that this influenced this beneficial effect. Diabetes and age had negative effects on in-hospital mortality, and both reperfusion therapy and beta-blockers were much less frequently used in elderly patients.
