|» All About Rage on ActionTrip
Vince "Moesha" Massa
So I finished Rage from id Software last night. Total play time took me about 12 hours and I was trying to make sure I did as many of the side quests as I could find. As I shut down my PC, my mind kept wandering to a kid I knew in high school. He was a bit like a chameleon. Depending on who he was hanging out with, he would take on bits of their mannerisms, vocabulary and personality traits. Around a couple of the Motorheads, he was all about heavy metal. Or he'd have a class with a couple of jocks and it was all sports, all the time. What is interesting is that he did not do this copycat routine on purpose. In fact mimicry of one's peers is quite common as children mature and develops their own personalities. When it comes to video games, imitation is either the sincerest form of flattery, a blatant/cheeky attempt to cash in on another's success, or a sign that the developer could not figure out where they wanted their game to go, creatively speaking. Honestly I am not sure what the correct diagnosis here is, but maybe I can come to decision as I try to explain my confusion.
Rage starts out with a massive meteor passing through our solar system and eventually colliding with the Earth. As we watch the giant rock pass through Saturn's rings and scrape our moons suffice, we flash to scenes of a man getting geared up to go into stasis and hear audio transmissions of Earth's attempt to move people into Arks. Arks are giant subterranean time capsules that will keep some of humanity safe, deep underground until the cataclysm has passed. I have to admit, the intro movie was strangely moving for me although I am not sure exactly why. After the movie stops the screen jolts and we are informed that more than 100 years have passed and you are in the process of being defrosted due to some sort of emergency. After briefly orienting yourself you see the small interior of your Ark has sustained some pretty serious damage. Sparks are flying, wires are dangling loose and all your fellow sleepers lie in their cryo-chambers looking like mummies, long dead and withered. A computerized voice tells you everything is offline and it's opening the door so you can make your exit.
No sooner do you get outside then you are jumped by two bandits who are quickly gunned down by a Good Samaritan in a dune buggy. He urges you get in so he can take you someplace as you both will be in a lot of trouble as soon as the raiders find out that you are a newly hatched ark survivor and that he took out two of their group. Riding back to his enclave your rescuer explains that the wasteland is a dangerous place and that if the bandits are not trying to use your skull as a cereal bowl, then the Authority is snapping up Ark survivors like a fat kid picking up candy from a busted pi�ata. Once you arrive back at his walled and defended compound, he suggests the best way to solve both his and your current problems is to take a pistol, a 4 wheeler he has in the garage and go to the bandit base and wipe them out. If you do this for him and get back alive he'll give you some armor to cover up that Ark suit you are wearing.
My favorite toy!
Show me the teeth!
So here we go: You are a newly arrived man out of the past, who has been sheltering below ground for decades only to arrive in an apocalyptic wasteland where a hodgepodge of humanity cluster together trying to preserve a form of civilization against ruthless bloodthirsty savages. And here you are armed with just a pistol and a promise that if you complete a quest for your new friend, you'll get a reward and info to help you on your way. Hmmm, this sounds a little familiar. But that's ok; this kind of setup has worked well in the past so let's go with it. Once you get to the bandits hideout and start dropping the bad guys, you get a couple of surprises. The first one comes when one of the guys wielding an automatic rifle goes down and you rush over to pick up his fallen weapon and you watch as dissolves into the ground along with the corpse. That's right; you can't pick up weapons from fallen foes. The bodies will stay along until you loot them for some cash or ammo but you are going to have to buy or be award other weapons. Ok fine. We can deal with that. Moving into another section of the base, a trap is sprung and you find yourself dead. Well, mostly dead. You are then introduced to a mini game to where you have to press a key when two circles intersect to fire off a defibulator within your chest that will revive you with some health and stun everyone around you with an electric shock. Yeah, not what I was expecting either.
As you play along further, other mini-games are available around town. You can play a collectible card style strategy game, stab a knife between your fingers on a table in a bar, and even play a note repeating game as a guitar player strums a tune all as a way to win some cash from others. You also have to race vehicles around a track in order to win new vehicles or currency to upgrade your car. You are going to need those upgrades as once you are away from the city you will have to battle you way through bandits driving cars armed to the teeth. So now we have a wasteland with armed vehicles that you use to fight your way to quest locations. It's d'j� vu all over again.
Rage also has some crafting elements. As you move through locales you can pick up or purchase items that can be used to create ammo, support equipment or bandages. The game clearly labels what items are used for crafting and what items can be sold as junk so it takes some of the guesswork out of inventory management. While it's not a very deep crafting system, there are some things I crafted quite often such as the lock grinder used to open some locked doors and ammo that had more of a punch to take down tougher enemies. One curious point is that there is no weight or room restriction for your inventory. So, by the time I have completed the game, between, ammo, components and other items I had hundreds of items in my inventory and that diminished the impact of the whole crafting system for me.
First there is the fact that the story itself is completely linear. While there are some optional side quests you can pick up, they are few in number and whether you complete them or not has no real bearing on the story. Next, quite a few locations only unlock when you have the proper quest. Not too big a deal except that the world itself is really quite small. So even though I had the urge to wander around and explore as I drove from one plot point to another, or while I was on foot in a mission, I felt I was always channeled to EXACTLY where I was supposed to go. If I cannot explore and try to find various ways to play within the world, why would I want to spend more time there? That point alone takes the replay value for me, down to zero.
Second is the addition of the mini-games to the overall gameplay seemed like an afterthought. On the one hand, I was bit irritated that there were several times that I *HAD* to race in order to advance the main plot line. But the car racing was very easy and I could understand how this kind of tied into the main story line. But the strategic collectable card game, the knife around fingers and music repeating games were completely unnecessary. Yes, you could play those mini-games to earn extra cash but there was never a point where I was in need of money. I always had plenty of ammo, my post-combat car repairs were never higher than $100.00 and I got all of my vehicle upgrades by killing bandit cars. Yes the games were a surprising feature but I felt no compulsion to play them after the first time I encountered them.
7.0 Good
Great graphics, stunning character models, production that mixes equal parts Fallout, Borderlands and Serenity;
Game is far too easy even on the hardest setting, numerous bugs on the PC, linear game play, questionable story development.

We just looked at the calendar and realized there are only three months until summer! Holy crap! That means we have a little work to do, considering we've been sitting around in our pajamas eating Oreos since the weather turned cold in October. We're going to try the green smoothie route. The BISTRO Blender ($140) turns veggies and fruit into a tasty breakfast smoothie that even our picky husband enjoys. Featuring five blending speeds and an ample 1.25 quart capacity, this blender will be getting a lot of love over the next few months.

HILLSBORO, Ore. (AP) — A Nike executive accused of cutting his Bethany, Ore., home's natural gas line in an attempt to harm his wife and four children has been arraigned on five counts of attempted aggravated murder.
The Oregonian reports (http://is.gd/BVE2zi) that 36-year-old James Speidel made a brief appearance Wednesday in Washington County Circuit Court. Bail has been set at $1 million and his next court appearance is May 2. It was not known whether he had a lawyer.
Sheriff's Sgt. Bob Ray says the man's 38-year-old wife, Laura Speidel, smelled natural gas early Tuesday and fled the house with her young children. Northwest Natural Gas found that an external gas line was severed and gas was leaking under the house.
Sheriff's officers say the gas line appeared to be intentionally cut.
Nike spokeswoman Erin Dobson says Speidel works for Nike as the business director of SPARQ. The company website describes SPARQ as Nike's athletic performance division.
Bethany is west of Portland.

Starting with the spectacular Rosalita's Cantina Tex Mex Restaurant street party downtown. They have shut down the block, and today through Monday, May 5th, you can get some great margaritas, tequilas and beer from 11 a.m. to midnight. Rosalita's is located at !235 Washington Ave., in the swanky Washington Loft District.

St. Louis, MO (Hazelwood), is celebrating Cinco De Mayo Saturday and Sunday, May 3rd and 4th, with a huge tent event. There is no cover until noon, then you will have to pay $6 to enjoy their lofty entertainment and of course there is plenty of Tequila and margaritas to go around.

Make sure if you got to truly get splashy with the cocktails, and Tequilas, you better get a designated driver. Be safe this weekend.

Well as most of you know I have been battling several ailments for close to two years now and my weight at my worst was just barely over seven pounds. Two weeks ago I went for my routine lab work, was not fun for me or the vet and his two assistants, anyway the results were the best I have had since I got sick! Still taking meds and watching my progress very closely.

My sisfur Tess lost her battle tonight. She had a good day relaxing in the outdoor pen that she loved so much, but when night came she began having trouble breathing. Meowmy had to take her to the vet for the last time. I am going to miss her, even though she was always slapping me off of the food so she could eat first. We had hoped she would have more time with us.
UPDATE on my sisfur TessSeptember 14th 2012 7:55 pm
[ View A Comments (7) ]
We went back to the vet today. Tess has shown some small improvement as far as how she is feeling. She is still not very active and it is evident that she is not her old self, but she is some better. She does have lymphoma and being leukemia positive it will most likely spread faster, but we are taking one day at a time now, all we can do. The vet does not feel like she is in any pain right now, just tired. She did go out into the outdoor pen today by herself, she was exhausted by the time she got there, but enjoyed the day outside. We sure appreciate all of the purrs and prayers, I truly think they have helped. Thank you all.
My sisfur needs purrsSeptember 10th 2012 1:23 pm
[ View A Comments (9) ]
Today is my sisfur Tess's birthday, she is seven. She needs purrs badly. She has been very sick for a week now, last week's lab test were not conclusive, but the vet thinks she has cancer. He spotted one tumor like object near her liver last week, today there were three. She is not improving. She is still eating and drinking but very inactive. We are going to try some prednisone and continue the antibiotics until Friday, if she is still continuing to decline meowmy will be tearfully helping her cross to the bridge. Please send purrs and prayers for Tess.

If you did not know it, January is Learn to Ski and Snowboard Month. This means that there are some great deals out there to take advantage of from resorts. Learning a new sport can be challenging and frustrating. This is especially true if your expectation, having never skied before, is to make parallel turns from the top of the mountain to the base. Here are some quick tips to help you get the most of your first day out.
- Take a lesson. Spend the money and go out with someone who is trained in teaching others how to ski or snowboard.
- Have realistic expectations. You may be a "natural" and get it right away. Or it might take you a little while. Stick with it and realize that everyone learns at different rates.
- Eat breakfast. You will need some energy your first day out so eat a well-balanced meal.
- Drink plenty of fluids. This is especially true at higher elevations. Drink water and stay away from the caffeine and alcohol (until after your first day out if you are 21+).
- Remember to breathe. Learning something new can be scary. Many times our muscles will tense up when we are nervous. Take deep breaths and smile, you are outside after all!
Follow these simple tips to maximize your first time out!

Every pregnancy is different (not just from woman to woman but for each pregnancy a woman has), and some women feel very ill for their entire pregnancy. Still feeling rough at 11 weeks is not unusual at all. I would check with your doctor if you are concerned, but from my experience with pregnancy (I'm a doula), this is definitely not out of the range of normal!posted 04/25/2010 by a BabyCenter Member

Citation: Atibalentja, N., Bekal, S., Domier, L.L., Niblack, T.L., Noel, G.R., Lambert, K.N. 2005. A genetic linkage map of the soybean cyst nematode, Heterodera glycines. Molecular Genetics and Genomics. 273(3):273-281. Interpretive Summary: The soybean cyst nematode (SCN) is the most destructive pathogen of soybean in the United States, causing annual crop loss in the hundreds of millions of dollars. In spite of the nematode's importance, little is known of its genetics. The importance of this linkage map is that it can provide for genomic localization of important genes such as those involved in parasitism. In this research we identified the location of the SCN parasitism gene HG-CM-1 (Heterodera glycines chorismate mutase 1) and a molecular marker that is associated with virulence (resistance breaking biotypes)on several sources of resistance in soybean to SCN. This genetic linkage map is the second one developed for a plant-parasitic nematode and the first published for SCN. This ground breaking work is the most important research done thus far to understand the genetics of SCN.
Technical Abstract: A genetic linkage map of the soybean cyst nematode (SCN), Heterodera glycines, was constructed using a population of F2 individuals from crosses between two highly inbred SCN lines, TN16 and TN20. Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism (AFLP) fingerprinting was conducted on 63 F2 progenies using two restriction enzyme combinations, EcoRI/MseI and PstI/TaqI, and 38 primer combinations. The same F2 progenies were genotyped for Hg-cm-1 (Heterodera glycines chorismate mutase), a putative virulence gene, with real-time quantitative PCR. Some of the markers were distributed non-randomly. Even so, of the 230 (229 AFLP and the Hg-cm-1 locus) markers analyzed, 130 mapped onto nine major linkage groups (corresponding to the haploid number of chromosomes in H. glycines) and one minor group (length < 30 cM) at a minimum LOD of 3.0, for a total map distance of 540 cM. The Hg-cm-1 locus mapped to linkage group III along with 16 other markers. The size of the H. glycines genome was estimated at 659 cM from the linkage data, indicating that the current map represents 79 to 85% of the genome, with a map density of 5 cM, and a physical/genetic ratio between 90 and 96 kb/cM, based on a previous estimate of 61,000 kilobases for the physical genome of H. glycines.

Tallahassee, Fla., -Identical 4-under-par, 284's by Mississippi State and host Florida State on Saturday from the Seminole Intercollegiate, sets the stage for a fantastic finish going into the final round.
The No. 36 ranked Bulldogs finished Saturday where they left off Friday afternoon, only one stroke behind No. 17 FSU. Last season, FSU won the Seminole Intercollegiate by one stroke over Georgia Tech, so they have been in this exact position before.
"It was another pretty good day for us," Coach Clay Homan said. "The golf course played a little tougher today, because the wind picked up and the greens got quicker. Being in the last group tomorrow with an opportunity to win is right where we want to be."
Junior Joe Sakulpolphaisan has an opportunity to win as an individual Sunday, being only two strokes back from the lead. Sakulpolphaisan stayed the course and is still tied for third after his 2-under-par, 70 day. The Thailand native has a 6-under-par score for the Seminole Intercollegiate.
Junior Axel Boasson fell back a couple spots to tie for fifth on Saturday. The junior fired off a 1-under-par, 71 from Southwood to stay in the hunt going into tomorrow's final 18.
After shooting his best round of the season, senior Robi Calvesbert turned in a Even score. Calvesbert is tied for 12th place after the 72 at the Seminole.
SEC Player of the Week and junior Bulldog Chad Ramey climbed nine spots to tie for 25th on Saturday. The Fulton, Miss., native turned in a 1-under-par, 71 for the second round to leave him at Even for the tourney. Ramey has finished with at least a top-10 performance five out of his last seven tournaments.
Rounding out the Maroon and White lineup from Tallahassee was true freshman Haraldur Magnus. The Iceland product followed up his 2-over-par, 74 on Friday with a 5-over-par, 77 to tie for the 49th spot in his first action of the spring.
Sophomore Fletcher Johnson competed as an individual at the Seminole Intercollegiate, shooting a 15-over par, 87.
The Bulldogs will tee off from Southwood at 9:26 a.m. with Magnus leading off once again alongside FSU's Bjorn Hellgren and Coastal Carolina's Easton Renwick.

INDIO, CA — (April 7, 2014) The 17 families living at Martha's Village & Kitchen and their 31 children once again take part in the annual Easter Shopping Spree on Saturday, April 12, 2014. This year, Kohl's department store in La Quinta will host these eager shoppers as they purchase school clothes and other necessities for their children.
Armed with a budget of up to $75 per child and guided by a volunteer mentor, the Easter Shopping Spree has become a fun competition to provide the most for each child for the least amount of money. The competition heats up when families scramble to come closest to, without exceeding, their shopping budget cap. Once people who were formerly homeless are able to apply the budgeting lessons they learn at Martha's to a real-world situation like this, the value of these programs becomes more tangible and reinforces the message of self-sufficiency.
Volunteers will help guide families through selection and budgeting. As part of the Kohl's Cares Program, Kohl's is supplying five volunteer mentors. Martha's Village & Kitchen is asking the public to contribute to this shopping trip by visiting www.marthasvillage.org and clicking on the Donate Online Today button at the top of the page.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) -- There's apparently going to be a changing of the guard in Indianapolis where the Colts reportedly are set to cut ties with their legendary, four-time NFL MVP quarterback Peyton Manning.
ESPN is reporting the Colts plan to hold a news conference Wednesday to announce the long-expected decision. Manning is likely to attend. A Colts spokesman said he could not confirm the report.
Manning turns 36 later this month, and missed the entire 2011 season after a third neck surgery. Before that, he'd never missed a game in his 13 NFL seasons. He's owed a $28 million roster bonus on Thursday
The Colts hold the top draft pick, and they apparently have decided it was too risky and pricey to keep the four-time league MVP. The Colts are widely believed to be eyeing Stanford quarterback Andrew Luck with the No. 1 pick.
Manning led the Colts to the 2006 NFL title, and in 2009 he brought the Colts to the cusp of history with a 14-0 start. But it's been bad news since. He's had three neck operations since to repair a damaged nerve that was causing weakness in his throwing arm.

Found this article on him .....
Raiders next BIG thing: Shannon Boyd
Home › News › Raiders next BIG thing: Shannon Boyd
10 January 2012 at 11:25pm by NRL
When most people at the Raiders think of Shannon Boyd one word resonates profoundly: BIG.
Boyd is big in size, big in heart and big in talent. Rest assured, he is well on his way to becoming the next big thing for the Raiders.
What is even more impressive though is that this 193cm and 123kg powerhouse is just 19 years old and already in the first grade training squad. He is the second youngest squad member behind Jack Wighton.
After an extremely impressive season last year in the Toyota Cup, in which the Cowra Magpies product averaged 104 metres and 16 tackles per game, Boyd has been elevated to the top squad despite having a year left in the under 20s competition.
The Raiders coaching staff believe that having Boyd training with seasoned front row campaigners such as Brett White, David Shillington and Dane Tisle will enhance Boyd's development considerably.
"It's been pretty full on but it's been good and I've learned a lot of stuff which should help me out this year," said the NSW Under 18s representative.
"It's a lot different to training with the 20s. It's definitely more serious and more full on than the Under 20s but that's what I need to develop my game."
"I think I've handled it pretty well. I struggled the first few weeks but my fitness improved with each session which made the transition easier."
The proof is in the pudding - or lack thereof - for Boyd as he aims to play more minutes in 2012.
"I lost about 5kgs in skin folds of fat and then regained the 5kgs in muscle so I've stayed about the same weight but I'm a lot more fit."
"With all the aerobic testing we do out on the field, I've gone up in every category so I'm happy with myself and just want to keep on improving."
Boyd also has a greater understanding of the importance of on-field communication since training with the NRL players.
"Talk's a big thing out on the field. Without that you struggle, so I've got to improve in that area. It helps with knowing where you have to be all the time and that there's always a job for you to do out on the field be it positioning yourself for the next hit up or running a decoy for another player."
Whilst it has a been a steep learning curve for the young tyro, there is no better place to learn the art of front row play than at the Raiders. Boyd has soaked in all the tutelage provided to him by the experienced stars at his disposal such as Brett White, Tom Learoyd-Lahrs, Dane Tisle and David Shillington.
"It's unreal being able to train with those sorts of players. They teach you a lot of stuff and are always helping you out. It's definitely going to help my game out so I'm blessed to be able to listen and learn from them."
"Whitey's been really good and showed me a few things along with Tommy (Learoyd-Lahrs) and Tilse. Now that Shillo's come back from injury he's also been a big help."
"My goal this year is to hopefully debut in first grade so we'll see how I go. All I can control is how I play so if I'm playing at my best hopefully I'll be pushing for a spot. It'll be such a proud moment for me running onto Canberra Stadium in first grade."
Boyd's efforts in preseason haven't gone unnoticed by the established first grade stars at the Raiders either, as Josh McCrone explains.
"I think everyone's been pretty impressive in pre season but if I had to nominate someone I'd say big Boydy [Shannon Boyd] has really impressed me even though it's the first time he's trained with the first grade squad. I remember the when I first trained with the top squad and it's a tough gig but he's killed it and keeps getting better with every session. The opposed sessions aren't good when he's running straight at me so I'll be looking forward to him running off my shoulder," said McCrone.
Another goal for this exciting young prospect is to notch a try after registering zero last year, although he was fortunate enough to avoid the dreaded nudie run.
"I didn't get a try at all last year but I wasn't able to go to presentation night because I had an operation booked in then so I missed out on the nudie run though luckily."
"Hopefully I get one this year so I can avoid it two years in a row although my skin folds are down so at least I'll be looking trim," laughed Boyd.
Re: Shannon Boyd
He played for the NSW U20s team alongside Stockwell and others last year
Re: Shannon Boyd
not saying of Boyd because I have never seen or heard of him... but it is funny how often the R E A L L Y big blokes have size and strength, but are rarely mongrel and aggresive.

A teacher's lap dance may have turned into her last chance at being near students. The Houston area middle school teacher allegedly performed a four minute, full contact lap dance on a teenage boy, allowing other students to slap her on the butt as she rubbed up against the birthday boy. However, she's the one in the "hot seat" now.
According to Fox News on April 26, 42-year-old Felicia A. Smith of Spring, Texas was charged Thursday with having "an improper relationship with a student." Smith was arrested and freed on a $30,000 bond. Investigators say the teacher in the Aldin Independent School District allegedly did the suggestive dance on Feb. 26 at Stovall Middle School, while other students used their cell phones to record the inappropriate dance.
Smith reportedly told the unnamed student "I love you, baby, happy birthday" after the song. She allegedly rubbed her buttocks on the boy and placed her head in between his legs. It appears Smith has sashayed her way out of a job; while the boy got a birthday gift he won't soon forget, Smith was sacked.
Smith told investigators that her class convinced her to perform the dance for the student's birthday. Witnesses say that as the teen walked into his third-period class and sat at his desk with his journal, Smith placed a chair in the middle of the room and told him to sit down. Music was played, and the class started whooping it up as Smith danced provocatively near, and on, the boy. She allegedly stumbled a few times in her high heels, eliciting peals of laughter from her stunned class.
The Aldin Independent School District released the following statement:
A criminal charge of engaging in an inappropriate relationship with a student has been filed against a Stovall Middle School teacher. The charge was filed by Aldine Independent School District Police, who investigated the case along with the campus administration. The teacher was removed from the campus during the investigation and has not returned. The district takes this allegation seriously and is fully cooperating with prosecutors. The safety and security of our students will continue to be a top priority in Aldine ISD.
Smith, an African American woman with long dreadlocks, refused comment at her court appearance. When confronted by reporters, she smirked and politely said "no comment."
The Harris County district attorney and the Aldine, Texas police department both reviewed the video, and have copies, reports the Daily Caller via Yahoo! News. It's not clear if the teacher carried on a relationship with the boy outside of the classroom or if she is guilty of any sexual misconduct with the minor. Police are investigating if her actions were isolated to the lap dance incident or if Smith may face additional charges. She made her first court appearance Friday to answer the initial charge.
The Stovall Middle School website lists Smith's email as email@example.com. Inquiries made by Examiner to the school and to Smith's work email went unanswered. Smith's website page lists no other information about her.

Valparaiso went on the road for the first of two games in Ohio looking to avoid a mis-step in search of earning the Horizon League men's basketball title.
The Crusaders left Cleveland with the first half of their road trip mission accomplished by using a quick start to retain its hold on first place with an 80-72 win over Cleveland State before 2,403 on Saturday afternoon at the Wolstein Center.
The Crusaders, 9-2 in the HL and 19-6 overall with the win, raced to a 12-0 lead before Cleveland State freshman Bryn Forbes snapped the Viking scoreless string with a jumper at the 14:19 mark.
But unlike the first meeting of the two at Valpo back on Jan. 4 when the Crusaders took a big early lead only to see the Vikings rally, this time it was all Valpo, which had five in double figure scoring led by Ryan Broekhoff with 15 points.
Forbes, who had a career-best 24 points, was one of three Vikings in double figures as sophomore Marlin Mason kicked in 16 points and senior Tim Kamczyc added 10 along with a game-high eight rebounds.
"We lost this with our lack of defense and that's on me," said Cleveland State coach Gary Waters. "If we score 72 points we should win. We let one get away."
Cleveland State 4-7 in the HL and 12-13 with the loss, trailed by as many as 18 in the first 20 minutes as Valpo was keyed by Bobby Capobianco of Loveland, Ohio, who tallied 11 of his 13 points before intermission that had the Crusaders up 44-30.
"We are pleased to come here and get the win," said Valpo second year coach Bryce Drew. "Today we played a much better team than we faced (Jan. 4). Cleveland State is a young team but today played like a much more veteran team."
In the first meeting of the two teams that began HL play for both, the Crusaders also had a quick start on the way to a 74-50 romp.
Also key in the Crusaders controling the first half was hitting 13-of-15 from the free throw line that included 5-of-6 from both Capobianco and Broehkoff.
Despite scoring as many as 70 points for just the third time in HL play this season, the Vikings were never able to get closer than eight points, getting there twice, including at the end when Forbes hit a 3-pointer with just 14 seconds left.
Forbes, who rebounded from a 4-point game in a 66-60 win over Youngstown State, echoed Waters in the post-game press conference.
"We didn't show enough energy (at the beginning of the game) and we weren't playing disciplined defense," said Forbes, who hit on 8-of-10 from the field including 4-of-4 from behind the 3-point arc in the loss.
For Cleveland State, the goal remains getting into the top six in the HL, which would give the Vikings a first round tournament home game. At 4-7, the Vikings sit in seventh with five league games left.
That 5-game stretch begins Tuesday at Detroit, where the Titans will look to rebound after a road loss at Green Bay dropped the Motor City crew to 8-4, which is 1-1/2 games behind first place Valpo. Cleveland State is back home Feb. 15 to host Green Bay. That is followed by a Feb. 17 game with Milwaukee and a Feb. 20 home game with Wright State.
"There is still a lot of basketball left," said Drew of his team's chances of claiming the regular sreason title. "This league is so balanced that (being in first place) can change very quickly. Valpo improved to 15-0 when leading the half.
The Cruasaders continue their 2-game road swing through Ohio with a Tuesday date at Wright State before returning home to play Feb. 16 against Detroit. In the first meeting between Valpo and Detroit saw the Crusaders rally from a 50-32 halftime deficit to grab an 89-88 victory on the road.
"We still intend to flip the script on the league season," said Waters. "We were 2-6 in the first half and we look to go 6-2 in the second half but we can now afford just one more loss if we are going to do that."
Despite the big leads held by Valpo throughout the game, the final box showed the teams separated by four 2-point field goals. Valpo go 19-of-25 from the line and 7-for-18 from behind the arc while hitting 27-of-49 overall from the field.
Cleveland State was 19-of-24 from the charity stripe and 7-for-15 on its 3-pointers but went 23-for-49 overall from the field. The Vikings didn't take advantage of their 33-20 rebounding edge but did lose the turnover battle, giving the ball away 17 times while Valpo limited its mistakes to just nine.

Hacktivists deface English Defence League website
Promise to leak a list of supporters
A GROUP OF HACTIVISTS called the Zcompany Hacking Crew (ZHC) have taken over the website of the English Defence League (EDL).
The EDL has confirmed the takeover and moved its content onto another domain. It says that no user data has been impacted.
"The EDL website - www.englishdefenceleague.org is currently in the hands of a group of Islamist hackers that call themselves ZHC. The group managed to take over our web domain but have not managed to breach our server - meaning that users' information has not been compromised and we have been able to quickly move all of our content to the new www.englishdefenceleague.net domain," it said in a statement. "We are hoping to regain control of the original domain soon."
So far control has not been regained and the defaced website accused the EDL of siphoning off supporter donations to pay for things like hotel rooms. It adds other defiant messages and warns the EDL to be ready for it.
"We will chase you, expose your racism and even remove you from the web. We demonstrated it successfully by deleting your facebook page three times," it says. "And we have demonstrated it successfully by defacing and exposing your frauds yet again. But the best is yet to come."
The message warns that a list of supporters will be released soon, along with an audit of the group's finances. µ

If the battle for online advertising has seemed heated, imagine when companies are competing for ad spend on a high-definition, 46-inch display instead of a few pixels on a laptop screen. The latest start-up to form a partnership with a consumer electronics company is YuMe, which has raised a $12 million round from Samsung Ventures and Translink Capital with plans to bring its online video ad network to Web-connected Samsung TVs early next year.
Growth-equity investor Hudson Clean Energy Partners has started raising its second fund, targeted at $1.5 billion, that will seek to take advantage of low valuations in the clean-energy sector, a person familiar with the situation told VentureWire. The distressed situation in the solar space, as well as the difficult IPO market, creates opportunities for funds such as Hudson, the person said.
Also in today's VentureWire: Aileron Therapeutics has expanded a $1.1 billion alliance with Roche Holding and boosted its ability to drive its own drugs through clinical studies…Medley Health said it has raised $20 million to further develop and launch a suite of tools to help physicians maintain independent practices…and motion-processing semiconductor firm InvenSense made modest gains during its first day of trading as a public company Wednesday, while shares of unprofitable biopharmaceutical firm Clovis Oncology declined.

Elsewhere around the Web:
Angie's List, which holds its IPO today, and Yelp, which could soon follow, are both venture-backed and provide online business reviews, but they take different approaches to the business, The Wall Street Journal reports.
Meanwhile, another venture-backed company, Kayak Software, remains on the IPO tarmac.
Congress is considering legislation that would enable start-ups to raise small rounds from a crowd of small investors. But the process, known as crowd-funding, is raising concerns about fraud. This and other issues are being considered this morning by a Securities and Exchange Commission forum on small business capital formation. Listen here.

Investors, Be Warned: Frequency of Corrections Increases as Bull Market Ages
While corrections might resolve, it's prudent to remain on the defensive side for now.
One might actually be surprised to learn that 2013 is currently experiencing the lowest intraday volatility in almost 50 years (since 1965). That's not unusual in a long-term bull market.
When looking at the average historical daily trading range for the
Dow Jones Industrial Average
(INDEXDJX:.DJI), you'll see that volatility always increases or soars in a bear market. The 2008 financial crisis, and the popping of the Internet bubble in 2000, saw almost three times the volatility that we're experiencing thus far in 2013.
Historically speaking, it would be naive to expect today's low volatility to last—just as it would be foolish to hope the current bull market will last forever.
At 4.5 years, this bull market is already one of the longest since the Great Depression. Looking at the
(INDEXSP:.INX) back to 1932, the average bull market duration is 3.8 years and, in comparison, this one is getting a little long in the tooth.
Still, it does have a few peers; of the 16 bull markets over the past eight decades, only five prior to this one lasted more than 4.5 years. Two of those extended bulls (1982 and 2002) peaked just six months later, ending at five years even.
The other three were
bulls which lasted between six and 9.5 years in total, which is 20 to 59 months beyond the duration of today's bull market.
Comparing the current bull market to the five previous prolonged bulls, it appears this one has had to climb a more challenging wall of worry.
My firm looked at the bull markets of the last 80 years that have extended beyond the 4.5 year mark, how many corrections they experienced, and how many of those corrections occurred before the 4.5 year anniversary versus after.
Not surprisingly, the longest bull markets (1949 and 1990) experienced the most total corrections. At 11 corrections to date, this bull market has seen more 5%+ pullbacks in the first 4.5 years than any of the previous extended bull markets. The others generally saw seven or eight corrections during this period.
Among the corrections in this bull market so far, two (in 2010 and 2011) went on to see greater than 10% losses. This is in line with the other prolonged bull markets which experienced zero to three 10%+ corrections in the first 4.5 years.
The more important aspect of our study is what happens beyond the 4.5 year mark. In the three longest bull markets, corrections became more frequent beyond 4.5 years, generally with two to three corrections annually in the final years before the peak (versus one to two annually in the earlier years).
All of the five prolonged bull markets experienced at least one additional 5%+ correction after the 4.5 year mark. Even the two five-year bull markets both managed to squeak in one more 5% correction in the six months before they reached the top.
Among the three longest bull markets, larger 10%+ corrections also appeared to happen more frequently. The granddaddy of all bull markets, from 1990-2000, had the rockiest finale of all, with a greater than 10% correction in each of the three years prior to the final peak.
History suggests that the frequency of corrections increases as the bull market ages. This fact alone could warrant a more defensive stance, but we have also started seeing some initial cautionary warning flags in our technical indicators over the past few months, which is added cause for concern.
While these might resolve, leading to a prolonged bull market, it's prudent for now to remain on the defensive side. Although we risk leaving some potential profits on the table, this strategy is in line with a safety-first philosophy.

Branding without Borders: Getting Your Prospects to See You as the Only One that Provides the Solution to Their Problem
(Fred Brown)
It's not your tagline. Remember the one you developed over lunch. It's not your logo that you had the copy store on the corner design. And most importantly, it's not about being all things to all people. Your brand is the psychological and emotional relationship your members have with you. Think Coke, Kleenex, Google and Ivory Soap. Learn who you need to be, for the target you seek. Learn how to start and continue that relationship with more than just your products. Learn how to LIVE your brand. Learn how to develop these strategies in a cost effective manner and more importantly, use them effectively.

The Wildcat women's basketball team is alive! After a loss to USC in the Pac-10 Tournament, the pundits basically said: "See you next year." Well gang, we're back quickly and look out for the Cats in Knoxville.
Now, you can argue that it is a huge stretch to say that Arizona, the No. 9 seed in the Chattanooga Region, has any chance of advancing to the Sweet 16 with No. 1 seed LSU in their path and you may be right. But once a team hits the floor anything can happen and here is why:
- For the first time in years Arizona can actually play good teams on a neutral floor. It's first game (Sunday at 9:30 a.m. MST on KJLL 1330 AM Radio) pits Arizona (19-11) against a very good team in Oklahoma ?- the region's eighth seed. The Sooners (16-11) are fortunate to be in the tournament and Arizona can beat them. Then, LSU will most likely be waiting. This will be quite a different story. But the Tigers (the No. 1 overall seed in the tournament) will not have the advantage of playing at home, so some of the edge is taken away.
- Arizona will presumably be healthier than it has been all year. Two weeks off will make Polkey more mobile and allow everyone else to heal. This will be the healthiest Arizona team, barring any injuries in practice, that we have seen since opening night. A healthy Arizona team is a very good team.
- This is Dee-Dee Wheeler's last chance. She knows it's her time to shine. If she gets hot, the Wildcats can beat anybody.
- There is Wildcat Karma at work. In 1997, the men's team finished fifth in the Pac-10, which is exactly where the women ended up this season in the conference tournament seeding. Arizona got hot in the Big Dance and beat three No. 1 seeds on their way to a national championship. Again, these things are decided on the floor and not on paper.
- It's about time. Arizona has bowed out in the first round for two straight seasons and Joan Bonvicini is too good a coach for that to happen a third time.
The point I am trying to make is don't assume anything. The Wildcats are alive and back in the tournament. As is the case with Oklahoma, Arizona will feel no pressure. Neither team was supposed to be here. All of the pressure is on LSU. Can the Tigers handle it? Yes, they probably will advance. But, you never know. And as for me, I can't wait to get started!
See you on the radio!
Paul Johnson
All NCAA Tournament games will be broadcast live on KJLL Radio, AM 1330 AM. Sunday's game between No. 8 Oklahoma and No. 9 Arizona can be heard beginning at 9:30 a.m. (MST).

The tower is an early construction in
northern China that holds an important position in Chinese architectural
history. Built in 540 in the East Wei Dynasty (534-550), the tower was renovated
in 898 during the Tang Dynasty (618-907). The temple has long been destroyed and
abandoned with only the bell tower and a brick pagoda remaining. The
square-shaped bell tower has a width and a depth of three rooms. The two-storied
tower has a gable and hip roof covered in black tiles. The tower is 14 meters
high and covers an area of 135 square meters. Its huge, powerfully carved
brackets reflect the architectural style of the Tang Dynasty. An old bell, said
to be a Tang cultural relic, hangs inside the tower. The mighty bell, which is
2.9 meters tall and 15 centimeters thick, with a diameter of 1.5 meters,
produces a thunderous sound. The bell tower of the Kaiyuan Temple has been

These are one of my signature cookies. They taste like miniature brownies — but oh, the texture! They're reminiscent of a meringue, with a soft, chewy, fudgy center and a crisp exterior that crackles appealingly. Since these cookies are smaller and less dense, they have an elegance that brownies lack. And they don't require the same commitment as a big, gooey bar. I can never eat just one of these. They are also a particular favorite of Gramercy Tavern owner Danny Meyer, who can't eat just one, either!
Leave a Review
Very chocolaty cookies. The crust is glossy, but much thinner than brownies. Kinda like the thickness of skin. Unless you make your cookies much bigger, they are probably not exactly like brownies inside. Just two small cookies give me the same high as a cup of coffee. They are good paired with milk and probably vanilla ice cream. I've never whipped whole eggs for this long, so that alone made this recipe worth trying out. I baked the cookies between 7-8 minutes. By then, the cookies have all cracked with a glossy meringue outside coating. The back cookies that are more cooked have risen more than the front cookies. I like the back ones more fresh out of the oven because they look better (puffier), are less fragile, and are less fudgy inside. Surprisingly, they became fragile after a day and the front ones became the ones I like because the fudge solidified and they are more moist and less fragile than the back. Their flavor are also more complex. I used chopped chocolates rather than mini chips, and substituted tart dried cherries for some chocolate bits. The cherries go well in flavor and provide a chewy variety of texture. I wish I have chopped them up because the whole cherry comes out of the cookie when I bite into the fragile ones. In addition, I want their flavor and texture to spread out more through the small cookies. The recipe calls for mini chips probably for similar reasons. When frozen, the cookie seems drier with a flatter taste, so you probably want them to be less cooked for ice cream sandwiches.
Excellent. I made this as written with 1/2 cup of chopped pecans and 1/4 cup mini chips. May want to up the nuts to 3/4 cup next time. Very easy but I don't know how this would yield 5 dozen. Granted, my helper (9 years old) did need to taste the batter often but we only ended up with 27 cookies. Will make these again and again.
I have made these many times and love them - everyone loves them! I find that by the time I get to the second sheet the batter is already stiff and the second sheet never comes out as perfectly as the first. Any suggestions?
YUMMY and easy to make. I cannot imagine making without a standing mixer (because I am too lazy for that) and I do not bake often, but this recipe will become one of my go-to chocolate desserts to make and share. I ended up using part of a Lindt Sea Salt dark chocolate bar for some of the bitter chocolate because I didn't have enough. Otherwise I followed directions given and my family and friends really enjoyed these tasty Chocolate Brownie Cookies!
These cookies are the food of angels. Oh. My. Goodness. They are unbelievably good. I used 1 bar of Lindt 70% and a half bar of Lindt sea salt chocolate (as well as the chips), plus salted butter (not unsalted) and the saltiness just adds to the flavours. My egg mixture didn't whip up thick for some reason (will have to try again - I have a hand blender) but even as little flat cookies, these were the most amazing things I've tasted in a long time. And it takes a lot to impress me, chocolate-wise ;-) *swoons*
I prefer my cookies with a chewier middle so I used a tablespoon and ended up with 24 cookies which were cooked perfectly in 9-10mins.
I made these cookies last night, and they turned out very good! Great right out of the oven with melting chocolate chips still warm. I liked the meringue texture on top which added a bit of crispness, adding nicely to the soft center. would definitely make these again. Easy recipe for a not so good baker, such as myself.
This cookie really does have the ease and transportability of a cookie but the taste and texture of a brownie! We made the recipe exactly as shown and it was delicious. Will definitely make again!
I always double the recipe. Important to beat as long as it says even though it looks like it's not needed.
These were so good, I made these a second time for Christmas, and I just slightly overbaked this batch. This made them a little dry, but everyone was still happy to eat them.

Reviews for Cheesy Mashed Potatoes
"The best darn cheesy mashed potato recipe the whole family can enjoy! Never have ANY leftover!!!"
"I made these to go with dinner tonight, an my husband has already requested that I make them more often! I'm thinking of playing with a couple different cheeses even. These potatoes were so creamy and delicious... Definitely a keeper!"
"Made this for Easter & everyone loved it! I did not add the onion. Next time I will only add 1 teaspoon of the salt - it was definitely too salty for my taste. Based on the expression on my mom's face, it was too salty for her, too, but she was too polite to say so."
"I didn't peel the potatoes, so it gave the dish an earthy, hearty feel and taste. I did decrease the cream cheese by half and used 1% milk to moisten and cut calories."
"this were a HUGE hit at our family Christmas gathering...will definitely make again!"

Great news for the Londoners today as two of their most experienced players committed their future to the club. Both endured questionable starts to their Arsenal careers but have been integral in the clubs resurgence this season.
German centre-back Mertesacker came under fire throughout his debut season at the club for sporadic form and a distinct lack of pace that was often exploited when facing particularly quick opponents. However in recent seasons he has been a mainstay is the Gunners first eleven and his partnership with Laurent Koscielny, another player who initially struggled to impress, has led to one of the best defensive records in the league so far this season.
Rosicky has featured less often but has proved his worth on numerous occasions this season and it is no secret that manager Arsene Wenger is a big fan of the 33 year old midfielder, once touted to be one of the best footballers Europe had produced before a spell of injuries seemed to have permanently hindered his career. It must be said though, that this past season he has arguably played some of the best football of his career, his managers and team mates alike often recognising his fantastic technical ability and determination on the pitch.
Wenger has described the duo as "players of exceptional quality and experience" and securing their services for at least the near future can only be seen as a huge positive for the club, undoubtedly on the up. He continued in a message to the clubs website;
"They have consistently proven themselves at the highest level."
"There is a great feeling of togetherness and belief in the group and this news will only help to strengthen this further."

A headline I came across yesterday read "Abu Dhabi Scientists Create Desert Rainstorms." According to the article, the storms were part of a secret project named Weathertec that "utilized ionizers resembling giant lampshades to generate fields of negatively charged particles, which create cloud formation." One hope is that this project will provide water to areas suffering from drought.
Shocking new development? Not exactly. Humans have been manipulating the weather for centuries to aid in farming, climate control, and even war. In the summer issue of Chemical Heritage, historian Jim Fleming provided a history of these climate engineering efforts—and a warning on the risks of tinkering with nature in such a way.
Regarding attempts to "fix the sky," as he calls it, Fleming warns: "Geoengineering is in fact untested and dangerous. We don't understand it; we can't test it on smaller than planetary scales; and we don't have the political capital, wisdom, or will to govern it."
Nonetheless, efforts continue to implement it.

We ordered stickers with Penn's photo on them for some Valentine decorating, but they came in a little late. Plan B! Homemade heart shaped cream cheese cookies. I made strawberry cupcakes for Penn's 3rd grade class that accompanied another mom's red velvet. The kids played Bingo with candy hearts on brand new, unshuffled game cards. During the last game when they had to cover the whole card a mom noticed that all of the kids were waiting on the same slot. So when that number was finally called our class had the biggest, happiest, loudest Bingo ever! It was kind of a moment.
I gave Daniel a teapot and cups to suit his new tea habit and he got me a candle that smells like the Pacific Northwest. We celebrated on the 15th for lunch at Stephan Pyles Restaurant. Despite the noon hour I felt like I was on a real date and swept off my feet with giddiness, delicious food and a handsome beau.
I love real paper valentines and sweet things and tea. I love Valentines Day and my husband.

JACKSON, Miss. – C Spire announced not one, but nine winners of its "Get Fiber First" challenge. Batesville, Clinton, Corinth, Hattiesburg, Horn Lake, McComb, Quitman, Ridgeland, and Starkville will soon have access to internet at speeds 100 times faster than what they currently have access to.
The next step in the program is for city leaders to rally communities to pre-register for fiber to see which neighborhoods qualify for access first.
"As neighborhoods have the sign up rates that we require, we intend to build," said Jared Baumann Brand Product Manager at C Spire.
C Spire's effort to provide fiber internet is one of the first state wide effort in the country. Governor Bryant says this effort to provide fiber "Future Proofs" Mississippi, allowing the state to compete on an international level for the next 50 years.

Motorola teams up with David Beckham to sell its Aura phone
Motorola Aura, the luxury phone announced back in October 2008, is available for purchase since December last year.
But Motorola is probably not happy with the way sales are going (and no wonder, since the handset costs $2,000).
So now the company announced a new advertising campaign, called "Aura of David Beckham" and obviously starring the famous football player. The campaign will be launched in Europe at the end of April.
Talking about the Aura, David Beckham said:
"I love classic watches, so a phone that exposes its mechanics while also being so stylish is really unique. When you hold it, it feels like you have something really special in your hand."
Now I wonder if Angelina Jolie would want to star in an advertising campaign for the Palm Pre…
Anyway, here you have the "Aura of David Beckham" video (although there's actually not much to see in it, save for – of course – David Beckham, who looks like the Terminator):
