Daughter Due Soon, 1/4 Black, 3/4 White. How did your 1/4 baby look at birth and beyond?
I'm not concerned or anything about the matter (she'll be beautiful either way, I'm sure), I'm just bored counting down the days until she gets here, and can't wait to see if she comes out tan like her daddy or pale like me, with tight or loose curly hair, or wavy hair, or what. I know it can all change as she gets older, I'm just excited to find out and there aren't many photos out there of those that are only 1/4 black as opposed to 1/2. Any mommas out there with a similar mix care to share pictures of their lovely LOs?

Carson Palmer is having a big season with 2,723 yards, 15 TDs and an 86.8 passer rating. Shifty running back Darren McFadden, however, could miss his second straight game with an ankle injury.
Defense: The Raiders rank 23rd in total yards (374.9) and are 21st against the run (119.0) and 24th against the pass (255.9) and have allowed 97 points the last two games although two of the TDs last week were on special teams. They rank 31st with only 11 sacks and have six interceptions in nine games.
Special teams: The Raiders have one of the top kicking tandems in Sebastian Janikowski, who's 21-of-22 in field goals and is deadly from beyond 50 yards, while Shanle Lechler averages 48.7 yards a punt. Their kick coverage was shaky last week, allowing a 105-yard kickoff return.
The Raiders have only one player with Louisiana ties — former Catholic High and Stanford running back Jeremy Stewart, who was signed off their practice squad last Saturday. He had seven carries for 22 yards in his NFL debut against the Ravens. … Starting free safety Matt Giordano played for the Saints in 2010. … First-year coach Dennis Allen was a Saints' assistant from 2006-10, serving as secondary coach in 2009-10. … The Raiders have been outscored 109-31 in the third quarter. … The teams have met 11 times with each winning five games with one tie. The draw came in their first meeting on Nov. 7, 1971 in old Tulane Stadium, 21-21.

Belly Fat and Fitness
fitness means less belly fat at any weight. Read on:
The higher a man's cardiorespiratory fitness, the less fat he has in his abdominal cavity, Dr. Jean-Pierre Despres of Hopital Laval Research Centre in Quebec and colleagues found. The relationship held true regardless of body mass index (BMI), a ratio of weight to height typically used to gauge overweight and obesity.Dr. Fuhrman runs into the belly fat issue all the time. Check out this excerpt from Eat to Live:
"This is why it's so, so important for the doctor to measure waist circumference," said Despres, who told Reuters Health he is on a "crusade" to get family doctors to check their patients' waist size and triglyceride levels.
High waist circumference combined with high triglyceride levels signal a substantially increased risk of heart disease and diabetes, he explained.
There is mounting evidence that fit people are at reduced risk of heart disease, even though they may be overweight or even obese based on their BMI, Despres and his team note in the Archives of Internal Medicine. At the same time, the researcher added, people of normal weight with bulging bellies can be "time bombs" for heart disease.
He and his colleagues hypothesized that fit individuals, regardless of BMI, would have less belly fat. To investigate, they looked at 169 healthy men, comparing their cardiorespiratory fitness with their amount of belly fat as measured by computed tomography (CT) scanning.
Most people lose weight and then stop losing when they have reached their ideal weight. You are not the judge of your ideal weight; your body is. As almost everyone is overweight, many people think they are too thin when they have reached their best weight. I have many patients who, after following my plan to reverse diabetes or heart disease, report, "Everyone tells me I look too thin now." I then measure their periumbilical fat and check their percentage of body fat, and usually show them they are still not thin enough.

Could iCloud Help Lead to a Post-Piracy Age?
I admit to being something of an Apple fanboy, but that has to do with their design and user experience. But I have not been a fan of Apple's tendency to lock things down, remove control from users, act as gatekeeper to app developers, and set up walled gardens. It's always a bit unclear how things will work out practice, and there are some clear down sides, but iCloud surprised me by really seeming like a good step in the right direction.
It looks like Apple is facing the reality of a post-piracy media environment. In struggling against the reality that digital files can be endlessly and losslessly replicated at functionally no expense, copyright-based industries have usually tried to remove technological capabilities from users, recreating at least some of the limitations of previous media which allowed them to profit by selling copies as if they were physical consumer goods rather than information; a non-rivalrous good. We saw price-fixing; we saw absurd and for the most part failed attempts at DRM schemes; and we continue to see economically unjustifiable copyright-violation damages sought.
What copyright-based industries have resisted is the fact that their prior role was based on technological limitations, and, when those limitations fell away with the rise of CD-Rs and MP3s, the market changed, and that they would have to change their business model. Consider the situation, in the 19th Century, of those manufacturing textiles by more traditional methods when the machine loom became prominent. It wasn't their fault that, suddenly, they could not create products at a competitive price—but technology changes, and sometimes these changes make some business models unsustainable. Should we have limited the productive capabilities of machine looms in order to ensure that more traditional textile producers remained profitable? I doubt many would defend the idea, but the extension to today's industries is less widely endorsed. Still, I think it's no less true.
That extension, put briefly, is this: if copyright-based industries cannot find a way to provide products at a price that they are worth paying for, they should not remain profitable by artificially and arbitrarily limiting technological capabilities and the freedom of others.
The problem has been: How do you compete with free? As Richard Stallman has argued for years, there's no problem with running a business where your product is free; you just sell services related to the product. For software, this means thinking of programmers as service providers, available for installation, customization, and development. For musicians, this means thinking of the album not as a product, but instead as an advertisement to get people to come out to the shows. For the labels and retailers, though, the idea of shifting to service hasn't provided much guidance.
Amazon has gone a long way towards lowering prices down to where convenience, simplicity, and legality make it worth paying what they're asking—even in competition with free copies downloaded from torrents or friends. (Here, too, Apple deserves some credit: the iTunes music store made $10 albums the normal price point; distant from the $17.99 CDs of the '90s.) Amazon has daily $3.99 specials, monthly $5.00 offerings, and recently sent out a clear "declaration of war" to the iTunes music store by releasing Lady Gaga's new album at $.99.
With iCloud, Apple seems to be taking the less-traveled road to compete with free: not the RIAA's extremism, not the DMCA-supported removal of user capabilities through DRM, and not the lowering of prices to reflect actual value, but instead adding value to meet prices. The iCloud platform, from what we know so far, seems to allow you to bring in existing files in a reasonable, non-abusive way, and to walk away from iCloud without losing what you've paid for. And the value of ease of access, use, transfer, and recovery seems significant enough to be worth buying into, for many at least.
Myself, my digital music management needs aren't so complex, and I don't mind dealing with things manually, so I'll stick with Amazon. But it might still turn out to be worth it at $25 per year, to pay Apple to convert those Amazon purchases over to iCloud too. In all, though, the important thing here is not what will cost least or work best right now, the important thing is that iCloud is a good step towards post-piracy realism in copyright-based industries; a step towards a music industry that's based in rational mutually-beneficial economic transactions rather than in animosity, blame, and fear.

For example, for an i.i.d. sample of random variables $X_i$ distributed according to a normal distribution, I found a sufficient statistic—the sample mean. How do I know if this is also complete? Thank you.

I am sure you know the formal definition of completeness, so I will try to offer some intuition on the subject.
Informally a statistic $T(X)$ is complete if two different parameters $\theta$ of the distribution of X, cannot give rise to the same distribution for $T(X)$.
The distribution of sample mean $\bar X$ is $N(\mu,\sigma^2/n)$, which is different if you change either $\mu$ or $\sigma^2$. So by the above intuition, it is complete.
I hope that helps. Examples above are assuming that the variance $\sigma^2$ is also a parameter.

Gentech Sensors will be exhibiting at the 4th Diesel Emissions Conference & DEF Forum in Atlanta on 17th-19th October. The forum brings together leading stakeholders, including distributors, manufacturers, technology providers and industry leaders from around the world to discuss the path to emissions reduction for heavy duty and domestic diesel vehicles and the technology which will take us there.
With future legislation such as Euro VI (2013) and US EPA regulations (2014) hanging over manufacturers, hot topics will include how regulators will monitor and assess DEF usage, what are the most cost-effective solutions for manufacturers and fleet owners and what emissions reduction technology is out there.
Gentech will be sharing information about it's proprietary SCR sensor technology, a flexible, integrated solution which monitors DEF/AdBlue® fluid levels and can detect and communicate instances when non-DEF fluids are added to the tank. Gentech supply SCR sensors to the world's leading diesel vehicle manufacturers and work closely with them to cut costs and keep trucks on the road.
With over 300 delegates expected, it is one of the most anticipated networking and learning arenas in the diesel emissions and DEF industry. Greg Lewis and Greg Sharp will be representing the Gentech Sales Team USA and look forward to meeting delegates over there.

Daily Inspiration and Birth verse for February 7:
Thursday, February 07, 2013
Daily Inspiration: Never stop praying no matter how hopeless your case may seem. Pray before you start your day and when you end it. Pray before you begin a task. Lord, I thank You for all of Your blessings. Together we can do all that I must.
Daily Scripture & Reflection: Let the heavens be glad and let the earth rejoice; and let men say among the nations, The Lord reigns! 1 Chronicles 16: 31
A Time to Think: There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you. �Maya Angelou
A Time to Act: Blossom into the best that you can be.
A Time to Pray: Lord, give me the determination to reach goals I didn't know I had.
Birth verse for February 7: He holds victory in store for the upright, he is a shield to those whose walk is blameless, Proverbs 2:7
PrayFit Devotional: A Dad Who Shows Up; Feb 6, 13; Read: Joshua 1
�Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.� �Joshua 1:9
A few years ago, I was living a fitness writer�s dream � working at Weider headquarters in Los Angeles, contributing to two of the most widely-read publications in the industry. But it came at a cost. Hopelessly long commutes and deadline-packed work weeks meant that I was arriving home in the evening with just enough time to kiss my baby girls goodnight and spend a few hours with my amazing wife before heading to bed to do it all again the next day. Though I was flourishing in my role at work, I was far from fulfilling my role as a father. My girls needed a dad who showed up.
I left Weider HQ, along with my bi-monthly paychecks and generous benefits, in hopes of remedying the situation. The overwhelming uncertainty was worth the risk. Today, I am still blessed enough to write for several fitness publications, only now it�s out of a home office. With my girls now at school age, they can count on seeing dad in the seats for every school performance and on the sidelines for every sports camp. They can depend on me to be there to prepare them for the school day and to be there when class is out. They have me to guide them along when it�s time to ride on two wheels and to pick them up when their balance fails them. I may no longer be at the center of the industry but I am at the center of their childhood and that�s alright by me.
Like my girls with me, I draw comfort from the unfailing, divine presence of our Father (Joshua 1:9). He is there when we struggle and when we succeed. We can look to Him when we crave guidance and reach with certainty for His outstretched hand when we fall. We can absolutely depend on His love to find us, each day, and always when we need it most. We never need to ponder whether He�ll be absentee in our life story.
He could have stayed in heaven but the distance and disconnect were simply too much for Him to bear. He needed to be closer to His children and was willing to bear the consequences to come. He didn�t want to miss a thing. Architect of the heavens, Author of our DNA � there�s no disputing His resume. But by a grace we can scarcely understand, He is most at home in a much simpler role: as a Dad who shows up. �Eric Velazquez

Three days of riding in the Teanaway River Basin. Bunch of sandstone for some fun Washington slick rock. Little different that Moab, but fun none the less. Lots of climbing, fast single track descents and the occasional rock. The O2 with the new X-Rocker and 100mm fork tore this stuff up! Great fun and great weather.

Skip to comments.'Vandals have hacked at the heart of Christianity'
Posted on 12/09/2010 10:33:00 AM PST by TaraP
2,000-year-old Holy Thorn Tree of Glastonbury is cut down
Vandals have destroyed one of the most celebrated Christian pilgrimage sites in Britain and chopped down a tree said to have sprouted from the staff of Joseph of Arimathea 2,000 years ago.
The Holy Thorn Tree of Glastonbury, Somerset, is visited by thousands every year to pay homage and leave tokens of worship. Those visiting today were moved to tears on finding the tree cut to a stump.
The sacred tree is unique in that it blossoms twice a year - at Christmas and Easter - and sprigs taken from the thorn are sent to The Queen each year for the festive table.
(Excerpt) Read more at dailymail.co.uk ...
This is horrible.
"said to have sprouted from the staff of Joseph of Arimathea 2,000 years ago. "
The Brits have some weird legends
My guess, of course.
Good thing we christians don't place much stock in icons.
Because there are those in the world that hate Christianity so much that even a tree to them must be destroyed.
Christian legend dictates that Jesus's great uncle, Joseph of Arimathea, came to Britain after the crucifixion 2,000 years ago bearing the Holy Grail - the cup used by Christ at the Last Supper.
He visited Glastonbury and thrust his staff into Wearyall Hill, just below the Tor, planting a seed for the original thorn tree.
Roundheads felled the tree during the English Civil War, when forces led by Oliver Cromwell (pictured) waged a vicious battle against the Crown.
However, locals salvaged the roots of the original tree, hiding it in secret locations around Glastonbury.
It was then replanted on the hill in 1951. Other cuttings were also grown and placed around the town - including its famous Glastonbury Abbey.
Experts had verified that the tree - known as the Crategus Monogyna Bi Flora - originated from the Middle East.
A sprig of holy thorns was taken from the Thorn tree by Glastonbury's St Johns Church on Wednesday and sent to the Queen.
The 100-year-old tradition will see the thorns sit on Her Majesty's dinner table on Christmas Day
For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
Could a tree surgeon do some emergency surgery to fix the tree?
It is a tree and hardly the heart of Christianity.
You can only pity those so reprehensibly deprived of anything resembling human consciousness. Were the world depleted of their kind........
It's not Biblical. Don't make an idol out of a tree.
That is just sick. And so very sad. A tree that has outlived so many generations is like a revered elder. To indiscriminately damage it like that just underscores some of the meanness and idiocy of our times. I hope they can fix the damage and get it to sprout new limbs. I don't know anything of this tree or this kind of tree. I'm reminded of the Ents in LOTR, some of my favorite characters. So very sad.
If this had been done to something that muslims held in esteem you can bet there would be untold investigations and arrests.
They must hurry and grow cuttings from the living branches, to make more trees, and to plan an entire grove of them.
We live amongst so many deprived, depraved evil people anymore it's sickening, however Jesus warned us this would happen in the *last Days* and he has already won this battle....We just have to endure it for a short time without loosing our sanity....
Those who endure shall be saved.....
Heaven is for Heroes
Hell is for Cowards.....
It is also I believe a site considered sacred to modern Pagans. So this may have not been an anti Christian act.
Also, plant the cuttings somewhere on private property within sight every mosque in Britain.
I don't think they were idolizing the tree, it is just a symbol of faith, it is like vandalizing Crosses at Churches or cutting the head off of a Statue of Mary..It is mean, it is evil, it is dis-respectful and it is unlawful.
The comments at the original article are interesting. One poster explicitly blames a local real estate developer for the destruction. If so, this is a highly charged conflict of a different kind.
I didn't know there were any Christians left in the U.K.
England has been cut off from the heart of Christianity since the time of Henry VIII.
I saw the tree when I was there. At least, they should be able to make grafts of it. How sad.
I went to the tree this morning, i am so shocked! It is a special Holy tree not just for christinaity but for pagans and all faiths. We now know who did it and he revenged the whole town because he wanted to build flats and we opposed the destruction of the hill where the tree grows. So after the sprig was sent to the queen he ruined the tree over night. - Ella, Glastonbury, 09/12/2010 17:19
From the commetns section it looks like it wasn't who you all think it was but a developer who was p'oed that he couldn't plow the hill to build flats.It also looks like the trunk is still in the ground so with good care which I'm sure the town will get it the tree could survive and bloom again.Watch for new sprig to spout soon to give the world hope.
Yeah No Joke.....
What ever happened to the U.K they are in a serious moral breakdown....
A vanquished people must become used to their sacred things being handled, fingered, licked and treated with contempt by the conqueror.
No, the animals are "Mooslums"
Well, I see that we still have a few of the descendants of Oliver Cromwell here in the forum. I wish they'd save more of their energy for fighting against the liberal atheists and Communists and Muslims who are the real threat to Christianity and our western civilization.
I'm very sorry to hear about this. Glastonbury has always been famous as a Grail site. And for its connections with the ancient Arthurian stories.
At least they are salvaging the cuttings, as they have done before. And it's good to know that so many of the villagers still feel strongly about preserving their traditions.
Yet some PC idiot on another board over Easter weekend told me "he sees 'discrimination daily' against Muslims . . . but has never seen it against Christianity"
What a loser . .wonder what he would call this?
Oh my goodness, how awful.
I will await proof before I am convinced.
That is a cruel deal.
Even if you are not a Christian,
Even if you are not amazed that a plant blooms on Christmas and Easter,
Even if you don't believe that it came from Joseph's staff,
You should still respect for a tree that survived for 2000 YEARS! To ruin something that brought so much joy to people for 20 centuries is something that is hard to imagine.
As another poster commented, take cuttings and plant them in hidden places.
Shades of the White Tree of Gondor.
I agree that it is just a tree. But make no mistake that the attack was not against the tree itself.
If it is at all like "thorn" trees on my property, they grow right back. They didn't tear out the roots — they "heavily pruned" it.
It's offensive and outrageous, but I'll bet that a new tree will sprout from the roots by June.
Sure is a sad thing to see ...
Probably a pretty good chance that Tolkien was familiar with the tree and the Cromwell story.
Probably the true reason when it finally comes out.
There's nothing wrong with it. A relic or artifact merely provides a connection to a long past event. It's evidence-- a physical representation of history that has lasted through centuries. Nobody is worshipping it.
It's one thing to read a story about something that existed centuries ago. It's quite another to actually be able to go there and touch a piece of it. It true of any historical artifact.
Somehow I suspect he wasn't a fan of Cromwell or the Roundheads.
WE NEED TO DO SOME H-Bombing!

Wruck, who will be competing for Australia at the World Championships in Moscow, Aug. 10-18, dominated in the discus this season, re-writing the record books and finishing the 2013 season undefeated in eight collegiate events. He also recorded each of the Top 27 collegiate throws in 2013.
On June 1, Wruck unleashed the best throw ever by a collegian, throwing 68.16m/223-7 at the Claremont Throws meet. That throw would have bested the collegiate record by nearly two feet. In the postseason, he swept through the competition, winning the Pac-12 Championship with a conference meet record throw of 65.41m/214-7, qualifying with the top mark at the NCAA Preliminaries and then winning the NCAA Championship with a throw of 64.94/213-0.
"We are very proud of Julian and what he has been able to accomplish this year," said UCLA Director of Track & Field and Cross Country Mike Maynard. "This season he set a new Pac-12 record and a collegiate record en route to winning his second NCAA Discus Championship. His drive for excellence and competitive spirit are an example of what we continually strive to instill in each of our student-athletes."
The other two finalists for the Bowerman are Arizona's Lawi Lalang and Indiana's Derek Drouin. The Pac-12's two men's finalists are the most by a league in a single year since the Pac-12 had three finalists in 2010. The Pac-12 has had eight finalists since 2009, the most of any conference in the nation. Wruck is the first Bruin athlete, male or female, ever to be selected as a finalist for the Bowerman.
The Bowerman award announcement and presentation will take place at the USTFCCAA's annual convention in Orlando Dec. 18.

FRESNO, Calif. -- Tyler Anderson pitched eight shutout innings and Eddie Rodriguez had three hits, including a home run, to go with two RBIs as the University of Oregon defeated Fresno State, 7-2, Friday night at Beiden Field.
Anderson, making his team-leading third start on the young season, fanned a season-high 10 batters and did not issue a walk to pick up his second victory of the year. The southpaw scattered seven hits in his second win over the Bulldogs (5-3) in as many seasons.
Rodriguez, who handled Anderson's gem behind the plate, went 3-for-4 and scored a pair of runs. All told, the Ducks matched their modern baseball high with 14 hits.
After leaving 12 runners on base in Wednesday's 5-3 home loss to Washington, the Ducks (6-5) had two men on with none out in the top of the first but stranded both. But in the second inning, the first five batters in the top of the frame reached base and all came around to score
Danny Pulfer got the rally started by getting hit by a pitch. Steven Packard followed with his first collegiate hit, a double, before Rodriguez lined a single off Fresno State starter Cody Kendall (0-2) to plate Pulfer. J.J. Altobelli doubled home Packard and Curtis Raulinaitis ripped a two-bagger down the first-base line, scoring two more.
After K.C. Serna sacrificed Raulinaitis to third, Marcus Piazzisi notched an RBI single to make the score 5-0.
Jack Marder hit his first career home run in the fourth and Rodriguez followed with a solo blast in the eighth, putting the Ducks in front 7-0 as Anderson continued to deal. The Bulldogs scored two in the ninth off UO right-hander Ryan Hambright, who played the first eight innings at first base and went 1-for-5.
Kendall lasted four innings for Fresno State, allowing six runs on 10 hits, with one walk and three strikeouts. Sean Bonesteele fared much better in relief for the Bulldogs, pitching five innings and allowing only the Rodriguez solo blast among four hits surrendered.
The two teams will play a doubleheader on Saturday, starting at 2:05 p.m. Game 1 will be a nine-inning affair, while the second game is slated to be seven innings. The four game series wraps up on Sunday at 1:05 p.m.
NOTES: Serna, Packard and Altobelli all finished with two hits apiece...Anderson entered the game averaging nearly a walk per inning over his first two starts...Serna had his third stolen base of the season...Jett Hart led off the ninth with a pinch-hit triple but did not score.

CF: Spick and Span? Not With Go-Go.
When Torii Hunter (arguably the most popular Twin since their rise to prominence in 2001) left for the Anaheim Angels via free agency after the 2007 season, a gap hole was left in center field at the Metrodome. After an intense Spring Training competition for the job between Carlos Gomez (acquired from the Mets in the Johan Santana trade), Denard Span (the heir apparent to Hunter's job until he struggled in the minor leagues), and Jason Pridie (a cast-off from the Rays who had a great spring). Although Span seemed the more polished of the three come April, "Go-Go" Gomez was named the starter due to his almost unbelievable speed and the excitement he brought to the club and their fans on a daily basis.
For the first few months of the season, Go-Go was indeed the most exciting player on the team, whether it was streaking to catch balls out in the field or flying around the basepaths after driving the ball into the gap. As the season stretched on, however, pitchers began to learn how to pitch to the rookie Gomez, and the strikeouts and terrible at-bats began piling up. At one point, Ron Gardenhire considered benching the fiery youngster (after dropping him from 1st to 8th or 9th in the order), but Carlos likely saw his job saved when Michael Cuddyer went down with an injury, and Span (the guy who would have taken over in CF) came up to replace him instead.
Gomez did finish the season on a high note, and his stats are respectable for essentially a first-year player: 577 AB, 79 R, .258 BA, 33 SB. However, he also struck out a near Twins-record 142 times and also was prone to defensive lapses in CF from time to time. His blazing speed and cannon arm more often than not made up for his mistakes, but too many times would a ball roll right under his legs or he would juggle the ball at a crucial moment.
Of course, Gomez would still be penciled in as the starting CF in 2009 if not for the emergence of Span (who will be moved back to his natural position when Cuddyer returns next year). During the 2008 season, Span manned the leadoff spot in the order like no Twin has done since Shannon Stewart, working deep into counts, drawing walks, and spraying the ball all over the field. In 347 at-bats, Span hit .294 with 70 R, 50 BB, 102 H, and 18 SB. Whereas Gomez struggled in the pressure of the leadoff spot, Span thrived. Defensively, Span made some of the most athletic catches ever seen in the Metrodome, and also has a rifle arm.
So, with Cuddyer (and his shiny, long-term contract) coming back to man RF in 2009 (as he should), it should be an interesting battle for the centerfield spot. Whereas Span seems to be ready right now, Gomez is a remarkable young talent whose potential is the teflon roof. Knowing Gardy, each player will get their share of ABs in 2009, although a riskier move would be to deal one of them for a relief pitcher that the club so desperately needs (to be discussed later).
Playoff Notes:
-Perhaps it is time I stop doubting the Rays, as their 13-4 crushing of the Red Sox tonight leaves them one game away from the World Series. I still think the series will need to go back to Tampa to be concluded, but now the Red Sox are up against the wall and will find it extremely difficult to beat the young Tampa club three times in a row.

Genre: Documentary,
Rating: NR
Duration: 1hr 45min
On February 26 1999, fraternity brothers at the University of Florida hired exotic dancer Lisa Gier King to dance at their party. The following morning, a half-naked and distraught King ran from the house, claiming she had been raped, and that frat brother Tony Marzullo had videotaped the crime. Two days later, King herself was arrested for filing a false report, and the authorities claimed the tape showed consensual sex - despite the fact that the film showed Marzullo addressing the camera to describe what he was witnessing as a rape. State Attorney Rod Smith refused to arrest the frat boys, and made the tapes available to the public. Shown alongside interviews and analysis, the original tape forms part of an investigation that the police never made.

A new Land Rover Defender is on its way, set to turn up in 2012 or 2013, in exciting news for dedicated Defender fans. The iconic model needs to keep up with the times to stay alive and we should see the traditional aspects of the Defender combined with new technology to meet current safety and emissions standards.
According to Land Rover managing director, Phil Popham, the new Defender will get more versatile and practical in keeping with its spirit. It will be based on the Range Rover Sport and LR4 platform, and should have a 2.7-litre diesel engine on the European market. If gets to the US, the Land Rover defender would be equipped with the new 5.0-litre V8.

Fancy a Wrecked Ducati Desmosedici?
If you always thought you could create a kick ass Streetfighter out of a Ducati Desmoseidici RR you now have your chance. A sad and wrecked example of Ducati's 2008 MotoGP refugee is about to be auctioned off.
Even today, the 2008 Ducati Desmosedici RR remains the most hardcore Ducati ever released, being essentially a replica of the motorcycle that won the last ever 990cc MotoGP race in Valencia in 2006 with Ducati Hero Troy Bayliss at the controls. It remains the closest bike you can buy to a true MotoGP racer. Just 1,500 were produced.
This example has obviously come to a very sudden stop judging by the buckled Ohlins fork legs, bent front discs and general explosion of the front end body work. Want to know how many miles are on it? Well that would be tricky since the odometer status is listing as "missing". Smashed is perhaps a more accurate description.
The bike will be auctioned off but as of yet, no date has been set. In the meantime if you want some inspiration, check out Oberdan Bezzi's Desmofighter concept, this Desmosedici based trike or even Roland Sand's Desmotracker. If you're like me, you'll tough it out to see if Ducati will build an 800cc V4 replica for 2012.
Thanks to Reader Anthony Meyer for the tip off

MAG: Lindsay Lohan at War with Co-Star Grant Bowler and Liz & Dick Crew
Lindsay Lohan is supposedly "clashing" with her "Liz & Dick" co-star Grant Bowler, according to Star magazine.
The tabloid claims the actress "was biased against Grant from the beginning, having delusionally believed her own star power was worthy of leading men like Gerard Butler, Robert Downey Jr., Mark Wahlberg and even Brad Pitt."
As a consequence, Lohan has "been so mean to Grant that her comeback is in jeopardy."
Wait, is the tabloid seriously arguing that Lohan is fighting with Bowler because she assumed Pitt or Downey would be appearing as Richard Burton in the TV biopic?
That's flimsy, even for Star.
Regardless, the tab alleges that things on set are falling apart.
"The crew is fed up with Lindsay, because they have to spend so much time dealing with her diva antics and, in turn, trying to soothe Grant's battered ego," explains a so-called Star "source."
As with so many "sources" for Star, this one is completely wrong.
A rep for Lohan tells Gossip Cop the "Liz & Dick" cast and crew have become a "close, collaborative family and are working very well together."
With Lohan's recent hotel room health scare, there was some actual drama (albeit exaggerated) surrounding "Liz & Dick."
It's a shame Star feels the need to fabricate conflict where there isn't.

It's hard to have a credible, first-hand opinion on something that isn't available yet.
This is a discussion on Opinions on the Kahr CM9 within the Defensive Carry Guns forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; Well.... Anyone looking forward to this gun? I've been wanting the PM9 and think this would be a great compromise. Opinions?...
Well.... Anyone looking forward to this gun? I've been wanting the PM9 and think this would be a great compromise. Opinions?
It's hard to have a credible, first-hand opinion on something that isn't available yet.
I have two of Karhs other offerings and I for one am thinking of picking up the less attractive CM9 as apposed the PM9. Basically it's the same pistol with less frills, what's not to like. My CW9 shoots as well as my PM40 so at a less expensive price point I think it's a win win for the buyer. I'm gonna bite the bullet on one some time this year I'm sure.
I have the CW9 and the PM9. If I didn't already have the PM9, the CM9 would definitely be on my list. It will be just like the CW9, just sized down to same size as the PM9. I wouldn't hesitate to get one.

I have a CW9. I don't see any reason to purchase the more expensive model other than, you just want it.
The CM9 will do well.
the CM9 IS on my NEED list. After over a thousand 100% flawless rounds through my CW9, I have no doubt the CM9 will perform. The Trijicon Tritium sights will be added as well. Having rid myself of the .380 mouse guns in 2009, the CM9 will finally fill the nitche within my current budget.
Does anyone know if the CM9 mags will fit the CW9? Just curious... thanks in advance

If the real world price is significantly cheaper than the pm9 (gotta keep in mind the cm9 only comes with a single mag), I'll be purchasing one. I practice primarily with lead reloads, so the rifled barrel is actually preferable.
I'd prefer a blackened slide, I like carry guns with quality tennifer-style coatings - but that obviously adds to the price.
Shot about 40 rounds through it, then broke it down and cleaned it.
Smoothest shooting DAO I have ever experienced. The pull is so smooth that it is easy to keep the sights on the target. I was a little apprehensive because my .40 S&W is DA/SA, and the first shot always seemed more difficult, but no worries with the Kahr.
Very light. I bought a pocket holster and it is no problem carrying it. I intend to carry the Kahr instead of my Colt Mustang Pocketlite .380, and I'm really happy with my purchase so far.

An elusive Girl in the Sky... does she want to be found?
Yukito is a travelling performer. He moves through this world with only the clothes on his back - driven onward by stories of "The Girl in the Sky." Not knowing when or if he will find her, Yukito wanders, clinging for fleeting hope.
Destitute and near starvation, Yukito's life changes after the eccentric beauty Misuzo offers him food and shelter. This fragile treasure shares with him her dreams of a life lived amongst the clouds, and he listens closely out of a gratitude which soon gives way to rapt curiosity.
The unlikely pair grows close, but Yukito cannot forget his destiny - or his past. In the end, the compelling need to find "her" remains. Who is that girl in the sky? Does she even exist? The questions run rampant, but the answers float aimlessly through the air.

I had some Nvidia issues recently on my Ubuntu 12.04 desktop system - not a LAPTOP, so no touch-pad related issues... I tried everything I could think of, including purging all Nvidia drivers and reinstalling them. Nothing worked. I spent 3 days on the web trying different driver-related fixes. I could not use any features that required 3d Acceleration, eg, Compiz Wobbly Windows, etc...
So I backed up my data and reinstalled the OS. I began setting up everything and things were fine for a few days. Then, yesterday, I noticed the mouse suddenly moving in random patterns. Sometimes it even clicked links and opened windows... I thought it might have been a hacker and I suppose it still could be. But the behavior is seemingly random and it has been happening in a manner that is inconsistent with someone remoting into my system. Plus, I have remote access disabled and I scanned my ports and there is nothing out of place (that I could tell).
I investigated mouse settings, changed the mouse and nothing works. In fact, this symptom even happens when I unplug the mouse completely.
What is happening? I still suspect my video card, but I'm not sure if this is warranted or justified. I don't have a card I can swap out to do a quick test. So I'm trying to figure out if there is another way to diagnose this.

The Bruins had another strong year, with 10 teams earning Top 10 NCAA finishes, including five in the Top 5, and two – women's soccer and women's tennis – capturing UCLA's record 110th and 11th NCAA Championships.
While the UCLA men handed over their 2012-13 Capital One Cup title to Notre Dame, which earned its first-ever Capital One Cup victory, the UCLA women finished ahead of third-place Stanford but behind Capital One Cup Champion Florida. The Capital One Cup is awarded annually to each of the best men's and women's Division I college athletics programs in the country. Points toward the Capital One Cup are earned and tracked throughout the year based on final standings of NCAA Championships and final official coaches' polls. A UCLA men's or women's team has finished in the Top 2 in three of the four years the Capital One Cup has been in existence.
In the Learfield Sports Directors' Cup, UCLA earned its third consecutive Top 10 finish, placing seventh with 1078.50 points, ahead of eighth-place USC. The Directors' Cup, which is presented annually by the National Association of Collegiate Athletic Directors (NACDA), was won by Stanford, which totaled 1482.00 points. The Director's Cup honors institutions maintaining a broad-based program, achieving success in many sports, both men's and women's. It was started in 1993-94 for Division I by NACDA and USA Today. UCLA has finished among the Top 7 schools in the final rankings in 19 of the award's 21 years.

'California Gurls' singer, Katy Perry whose number is topping the US charts has been affianced to Russell Brand, the English actor and comedian, whom she was dating since September, last year.
The hot US singing sensation has revealed that she has disciplined her fiancé Russell, who was a complete alcohol, drug and sex addict and she also made him 'wait for sex'.
25-year-old Perry revealed during a recent magazine interview, "He used to basically be a professional prostitute – now he's not. He's an extremist, which can be both good and bad."
"I always needed someone stronger than me and I am, like, a f****** strong elephant of a woman. I say that hopefully in the humblest way I can," she stated.
Brand too reciprocated the feeling and said that he was ready to marry Katy Perry and have his kids with her.
"Regardless of what happens in my current situation, I am unlikely to be satisfied with calamitous promiscuity of the preceding five or six years," he said.
Katy Perry revealed during a recent magazine interview, "He used to basically be a professional prostitute – now he's not. He's an extremist, which can be both good and bad."
Katy Perry's unique Indian proposal
The 'I kissed a girl' star revealed that her fiancé wore a turban, when he proposed her at the Rambagh Palace hotel, during their trip to India and shocked her completely with the unexpected gesture.
Talking about it, she said, "Russell had a little turban on. We went into the lobby and there was a horse and carriage waiting, which took us to where we were going to eat: this tent made out of tens of thousands of roses. There were men holding fires on the pathway, under a blue moon."
"We went to another area that Russell had set up by these waterfalls, with traditional Indian colored flowers, orange and fuchsia. Then there was this balcony that had a love seat and a bunch of flowers on a table. The ring was underneath them," she gleefully added.
The romantic couple will tie the knot in October, this year and an inside added that Rihanna would be their bridesmaid and the wedding well take place in the traditional Indian style.
Katy Perry wants fans to help her
The popular pop singer wants to be the next celebrity guest star on season 2 of the hit musical comedy 'Glee' and wants fans to help her.
States the Daily Record, "She's desperate to star in her own Glee episode. And she's begging fans to start an online campaign to get her on the hit musical show."
She recently said, "Please! I would love somebody to start that Facebook group and persuade them. I would absolutely love that."
If the rumors turn true, then Katy Perry would be a very busy star as she has a lot on her plate. She has an album to promote and will be hosting the 2010 Teen Choice Awards to be held on August 9.

At least 15 Nigerians involved in job stampedes were killed in four different cities over the weekend. On March 17, Bloomberg reported that the National Immigration Service was "conducting aptitude tests to recruit new officers" when these stampedes broke out, claiming several lives and injuring plenty more. People in the country really want jobs and with only 4,500 positions available, people rushed in to take the test, thus causing the stampedes.
"'Young people are desperate to get work,' Shamsudeen Yusuf, Program Officer at the Centre for Democracy and Development research group" (via Bloomberg). Seven people died in Abuja, five in Port Harcourt, two in Minna, and one in Benin City.
The Nigerians in the job stampedes know about poverty all too well and having a job is very important to them. According to a poll published in 2012, 61.2% of people in Nigeria were living on $1.00 a day in 2010. Holding these tests in order for people to "apply" for jobs has been controversial because previously the same sort of thing happened and eight people lost their lives looking for work (in 2008). Their testing in 2012 wasn't without incident either.
According to the report, over 522,000 applicants paid 1,000-naira (about $6) to take this test. With only 4,500 jobs available, you can probably see why people were so eager to take the test -- also, $6 is money for the week for many families in the region.
Nigerians in job stampedes have caused the government to reevaluate their immigration recruitment tests. Check out the video above for more.

Torchlight II coming spring 2011
Torchlight, the surprise Diablo-esque hit of last fall, is getting a sequel this coming spring, according to developer Runic Games.
Torchlight II Coming Spring 2011
Mmmmmm, co-op torchlight :)
Found this interview on PC gamer, which gives a lot of info about the sequel.
Torchlight 2 interview with Runic Games : PC Gamer
I was a bit surprised to learn that they've decided to do an "intermediary" Torchlight. Last I had heard, they released T1 as the single-player "proof of concept" and then they'd release an MMO version several years later.
Still, this may be a good idea for them to work out some kinks with multiplayer and advance the story.
I imagine they may be trying to imitate the success of the Warcraft series (Warcraft, Warcraft II, WoW). Which may not be far from the mark considering that a lot of Runic's employees are former Blizzard guru's.
I'm still playing Torchlight and I will most certainly purchase Torchlight 2.

05 Apr Intriguing Men's Final on the cards at World Cup #2 today
After the qualification stages provided some interesting results, 36 men will now be primed for their assault of the World Cup #2 title in Cairo this Saturday. The semi-finals were only a teaser with the equestrian event now on the schedule adding some extra spice to the proceedings.
It is impossible to judge from the previous results what can happen, as demonstrated by the women, so it will be fascinating to see how young Russian talent Alexander Kukarin fares when the pressure is on and to see how he copes in the riding event. The 20-year-old excelled in the previous round but this will be a real test of his credentials. Same applies for new Chinese sensation Jianli Guo who dazzled from start to finish in the other qualification Group.
World No.2 Valentin Prades is unsuited to the heavy running course which has some difficult turns on a difficult surface. The tall Frenchman struggled with the quick changes of pace needed. His compatriot Valentin Belaud however relished it with his burst of speed and acceleration on short distance ideal for the course. If he can get in a good position coming into the combined he will be looking to improve on his best result of third at a World Cup Series event. Champion of Champion Christopher Patte is another Frenchman with eyes firmly set on claiming at least a podium in Egypt.
Can the El Geziry brothers, Amro and Omar, find their aim in the combined and get on the podium in their hometown? Both are scintillating on the pistes and in the pool but seemingly always falter in the combined.
Omar told us, "The mental aspect of the shooting is what always works against us. Fencing and swimming is never a problem, we always know we will perform. Running we are both strong. If we get it right with the pistol then we know what we can achieve. But it is that knowledge and pressure that works against you sometimes. That is the beauty of Modern Pentathlon."
He continued on his thoughts for the Final, "For the Final we will see, it would be nice to get a medal in front of family and friends. But again that puts you under pressure. For me I am relaxed, I think that I have it sorted in my head. We'll see, I just want to enjoy it."
Junior World Champion Denys Pavlyyuk looked uncomfortable with the heat and has no yet proven himself in riding but he seems to be maturing fast so could spring a surprise here. His Ukrainian teammates Dmitry Kirpulyanskyy and Pavlo Tymoshchenko looked strong in the qualifiers so will be keen to have an impact on the top of the leaderboard. 2012 European Champion Riccardo de Luca and Pierpaolo Petroni of Italy will see this Final as a big opportunity to gain valuable World Ranking points so expect them to be given it their all.
One thing is for sure, it will tight, exciting and unpredictable. All live scores will be displayed on the www.pentathlon.org homepage

Substitute player Mario Götze scored the game's only goal in the 113th minute in leading Germany to victory in the 2014 FIFA World Cup Final today in Brazil. It was Germany's fourth World Cup victory overall and first in 24 years.
Taking the ball from Andre Schurrle, the 22-year-old Götze took it off his chest and shoulder before delivering a brilliant kick to easily beat the Argentine goalkeeper Sergio Romo. Immediately the German players and supporters in the stands erupted in jubilation, knowing that victory was within their grasps if they could hold on for the remaining minutes in extra time.
With many fans staying up late in Germany and the rest of Europe, Götze has emerged from one of the team's best young players to elevate as a national hero. With the win at Maracanã Stadium in Rio de Janeiro, Germany became the first European country ever to win a World Cup in the Americas. It was the third time Argentina and Germany have met in a World Cup final and seventh meeting in the world's greatest soccer tournament. Argentina won the first championship matchup in 1986 led by Diego Maradona but Germany won the most recent World Cup final in 1990.
Argentina's Lionel Messi, arguably the world's best soccer player had one last chance to tie the game on a penalty kick in the final moments. But his attempt went far left above the top goal post and just moments later, Germany became the world champions.
Earlier in the game Messi and another of Argentina's marquee players Gonzalo Higuain missed chances to take the lead in a game that seemed so evenly matched in 90 minutes of regulation time. But Germany proved it was worthy of their world ranking at No. 2, behind Spain coming into the world's most prestigious soccer tournament and gutted out the victory over a proud Argentine team, with overwhelming fan support from the crowd of nearly 80,000. Despite the loss, the Argentina national team should hold their heads up high but remains determined to avenge past losses against Germany in future meetings.
Shortly after completion of the game, James Rodriguez of Colombia was announced emerged as the winner of the Golden Boot, as the leading goal scorer of the 2014 FIFA World Cup. Germany's Thomas Muller followed close behind in second place, Brazil's injured player Neymar was third and Lionel Messi ended up in fourth. Messi was also named the winner of the Golden Ball as the best player of the World Cup, while Germany's Manuel Neuer won the Golden Glove award for outstanding goalkeeper.
While the 2014 World Cup is now over, there's no question, the international event was one of the most popular and most watched sporting events in history. Attendance figures and statistics for the televised audience is expected to be released in the upcoming days.

Corporate Governance
We provide legal advice to the boards of directors of companies of all sizes, including audit committees and special committees, and advise individual directors and officers on their legal obligations under federal and state laws and regulations. Our involvement ranges from attendance at meetings to ensure that appropriate legal requirements are considered, to special situations such as conducting corporate-wide investigations and advising special committees of independent directors as to their fiduciary obligations in connection with the negotiation of the sale of a business to inside investors.

Our lawyers are skilled in the legal aspects of career counseling for senior executives and high net worth individuals, and have extensive experience advising individuals in connection with executive employment and compensation arrangements. We also represent companies in executive/employee hiring, structuring incentive packages, options and other forms of compensation, as well as executive/employee terminations.
Financing Arrangements
We assist corporate clients in the negotiation and documentation of financing arrangements, whether in the form of a new financing or refinancing, or in other transactions such as leveraged buy-outs, recapitalizations or restructurings.
Our lawyers regularly advise lending clients on the structure and terms of warrants and convertible securities, along with other corporate rights that the lender may require in connection with its financing of a company. We provide analysis and advice regarding the effects of corporate transactions involving a borrower or guarantor on the institution's position under the facility. In connection with workouts and bankruptcies, our corporate attorneys analyze both complex pre-bankruptcy transactions and transactions that are part of reorganization proceedings, as well as working on the sale or other realization on real and personal property and changes in corporate structure.
