Dr. Ben Carson, the former celebrated neurosurgeon who became a conservative superstar about two years ago, has moved towards a possible run for president on the Republican side in 2016. He is aptly forming a political action committee and has also has selected the person who would run his campaign if he should ultimately decide to run for president. The man he has chosen to run his campaign, should he decide to run, would be Terry Giles, according to the Washington Times.
Carson engaged in two days of meetings with his supporters in Palm Beach, Florida prior to revealing information about the outcome of those meetings – and his future plans in politics. During the meetings, the formation of One Nation – a PAC – was approved as well. Emerging from the meetings, Carson faced the media to say that now is the time for him to start all of the appropriate exploration and investigation regarding a presidential run. He said that it is the time to put down the structure that is necessary for a run.
When asked outright about a presidential run in 2016, he stated that he is definitely a step or two closer than he was in making that decision a year ago. The results of the 2015 midterm elections – in which, of course, the Republicans are working diligently to hold their stronghold in the House of Representatives and working to overpower the Democrats in the United States Senate – will be a major factor in his decision as to whether he will run or not.
Carson also stated that One Nation – his new PAC – will be trying to support candidates with views on the issues similar to his own. He said, "Obviously, we are very interested in what happens in November - and if the people also continue to show strong desire for me to run, obviously that would be an important factor, too."
According to NBC News, Dr. Carson has polled extremely well. He is quite popular among conservatives throughout the country – in particular, he does well with Tea Party supporters. He is described as a soft-spoken gentleman who is passionate about the nation and its concerns.

Microsoft to Double Down on HTML5 With Internet Explorer 9? Really?
by Cedric Dugas on March 4, 2010
I was pretty surprised to read this week an article on Webmonkey that was saying that Microsoft would certainly double down in IE9 on HTML5 and CSS3. I suggest you read it yourself, but basically it was saying that Microsoft would go on the offensive at the upcoming MIX2010 presenting IE9.
I do not see Microsoft go on the offensive, I am pretty sure in fact that it will not implement any 'Multimedia' feature like Audio, Video and Canvas any time soon, and certainly not before it is kind of obligated because Youtube, for example, switched to html5. Why? Silverlight… This technology is a competitor to all these technologies. If you are not really into extranet and intranet development, you might not even know what Silverlight is, well it was first introduce as a competitor to Flash (Adobe is certainly laughing themselves to death..). They tried to ship it on big websites as a video player component, now pretty much every site that was using it is back to flash. Too few users was installing it, and from what I saw, the video server was half the time down.
Now Silverlight is more a competitor to Adobe Air, which make sense, seeing no web designer in its right mind would like to work with Silverlight. Anyway coming back on IE, Microsoft never really cared to implement CSS3 and HTML5 like others browser vendors. Don't get me wrong, they did actually implement some HTML5 features, they are just slow like a turtle shot in one paw. They actually said that they would have liked very much to ship CSS3 border-radius but did not have the time to implement it. I mean, how much time can that actually take to implement that..
The IE team
I could guess wrong there too, but when you think about Gekoo or Webkit, I think about hip young engineers, but the IE team inspires me nothing, I would not be actually surprise that most of the team just do not really care about the impact IE have on internet and on web developers. When you think about it, by the time Microsoft shipped IE8, Webkit was trying to pass the CSS3 acid test. IE8 is compliant css2.1, end of line.
Just my two cents here.

Microsoft has done splendid catch-up acts in the past in many fields (Remember Java?). Before we sign the engineers at IE off, let's remember that those guys are pretty smart. I can well imagine that they will come up with something good soon.
I'm a Mozilla developer, and I think you may be underestimating the IE team's (new-found, yes) commitment to web standards. We talk to them a lot in the HTML and CSS working groups, and they seem quite serious about catching up on CSS3 modules, at least. I don't follow HTML5 myself so I can't say for sure how serious they are about that, but it would not surprise me to see HTML5 multimedia support in IE9 at all — do keep in mind that the IE team and the Silverlight team are totally different groups, with different priorities. And there are plenty of reasons why / are a good idea even if you assume the ubiquity of Silverlight (or Flash), such as better integration with the surrounding page.
Don't expect them to pick up on any spec that hasn't reached Candidate Recommendation state, though; they are very firm about not changing anything once they ship it, so they don't want to do anything experimental.
Regarding border-radius, I've been implementing a lot of that myself for Gecko, and it's much harder than you might think. Yes, drawing a curve is easy; but getting the interactions with every other border and background feature right is hard. Have a look at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=border-radius and its many dependencies, and realize that that's all work *yet to be done*.
Your form ate my tags "And there are plenty of reasons why <video>/<audio> are a good idea …"
I think that IE is doing all of these things (bugs, not implementing new technologies, etc) on purpose.
They know that the faster the web will grow the faster they will parish, therefore they are trying to slow down the process.
@Zack Weinberg
if the IE team can't do things enough fast (in the speed of today's web) they should give up once and for all.
I see that webkit and mozilla are doing just fine, only IE can't do it?
"if the IE team can't do things enough fast (in the speed of today's web) they should give up once and for all."
Well maybe MS should hire you for millions since you're clearly awesome and can do everything better and faster than everybody else.
@moses – @Adardesign's comments are simply reflective of the reality that the web moves orders of magnitudes faster than IE's release cycle. It doesn't matter if IE9 is the greatest thing since peanut butter got together with jelly. Whatever innovations it may bring will be quickly and outstripped within a few release cycles fom Opera, Mozilla and Google, and then we'll have more pointless discussions about upcoming features in IE10 that other browsers implemented ages prior.
IE would be much better if Microsoft spun it off into its own division, where its release cycles would be independent of its other offerings. Unfortunately i dont see that happening in my lifetime.
good ya
@jbland IE would be much better if they get out of the browser war!
Thank you for sharing this information. The information was very helpful and saved a lot of my time.

|MTEN wins twice
LEWISTON, Idaho - The Idaho men's tennis team made it three wins in a row after a pair of 6-1 victories over Eastern Washington and Lewis-Clark State College Saturday.
The Vandals improve to 7-6 on the season with the wins and have won three in a row for the first time this year.
Idaho was perfect in doubles on the day, winning the doubles point 3-0 in both matches to get things started. Marius Cirstea and Abid Akbar both had a pair of straight-set wins at the No. 1 and 2 singles positions, as did Alan Shin and Cesar Torres at No. 5 and 6. Jose Bendeck won in three sets at No. 4 against LCSC, but lost a three-setter against Eastern Washington. Cristobal Ramos Salazar won a tight three-set match against EWU at No. 3 singles, but lost in three sets to LCSC.
"Winning the doubles point in both matches was key to both wins," Idaho coach Jeff Beaman said. "Today was a confidence-builder for the guys and hopefully they can carry this into our very tough matches in California next weekend."
The Vandals return to action next week when they face Saint Mary's on March 9, No. 37 Santa Clara on March 10, Wisconsin on March 11 and No. 16 Fresno State on March 13.

Report: Gosnell Jury Hung On Two Charges
This doesn't mean Gosnell has been found guilty on all other counts, only that they've agreed to verdicts -- including the possibility of "not guilty."
It's possible, for example, the jury has found that there wasn't enough evidence to convict on murder in two of the baby-slayings (say, if they evidence wasn't beyond a reasonable doubt regarding whether they were born alive). There could be one or more jurors resisting any murder charges for the "aborted" babies, even if the evidence is strong they were born alive; it might just be that the rest of the jury agreed with them on two counts, for insufficient evidence.
The judge will now holler at them some and remind them of their duty and tell them to work it out.
Why I Think This Is the Case: I think this way because if they were split 2-2 on guilty/not guilty for the baby murders, they would simply split the difference and present their verdict of 2 guilty, 2 not guilty. They would have still convicted him twice for capital murder; the third and fourth conviction are of less consequence after the first two.
So it's my guess what's going on is that the jury has agreed that on two deaths, there isn't enough evidence to say the baby was alive (and hence murdered), and then there are one or more jurors who are against imposing the verdict of guilty in these cases whatever the evidence.
So I think the fight is between those who want 2 guilty, 2 not guilty verdicts as to the baby murders, and those who want 4 not guilty verdicts for all of them.

By PETER H. MILLIKEN
Akron-based lawyers have filed class-action lawsuits against St. Elizabeth Boardman Health Center and Forum Health Northside Medical Center, alleging both hospitals improperly billed Medicaid patients for Medicaid-covered services.
The civil suits were filed in Mahoning County Common Pleas Court against St. Elizabeth and against Northside. Both suits allege breach of contract and negligence, and both demand jury trials. The suits were filed by Attys. Albert R. Nestico and Todd O. Rosenberg.
The suit against St. Elizabeth is assigned to Judge R. Scott Krichbaum, and the suit against Northside is assigned to Judge Maureen A. Sweeney.
The complaint against St. Elizabeth was filed on behalf of Denise Cuscino, of Struthers Road, New Middletown.
The complaint against Northside was filed on behalf of Ann Boylen, mother of a minor named Vivian Boylen, of Edgar Avenue, Youngstown.
Spokeswomen for Forum Health and St. Elizabeth declined to comment because the complaints are matters of pending litigation.
The plaintiff's lawyers seek to include within the class all Ohio Medicaid patients each institution billed for Medicaid-covered services during the past 15 years. Each suit seeks more than $25,000 in damages for each plaintiff and each class.
Medicaid is a health-care plan for poor people, which is funded jointly by the federal and state governments and managed by the states.
"Cumulatively, the charges billed by defendant have resulted in hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars of damages to the class," the suits say.
The suit against St, Elizabeth says Cuscino was treated there in November 2008 and billed for $1,285 for that treatment in April 2009. "Plaintiff has become unexpectedly burdened with this financial debt," the complaint says.
The complaint against Northside says the Boylens were treated there in January 2010 and billed in March. The bill for Ann Boylen was $1,503, and the bill for Vivian Boylen was $1,421, according to the suit.
Neither Cuscino, nor the Boylens, were notified by the hospitals in writing before they were treated that the hospitals wouldn't bill Medicaid for the services; none of the patients signed agreements to be liable for payment; and neither hospital told the plaintiffs other providers might give them free treatment, the suits say.
Ohio law prohibits billing Medicaid patients for Medicaid-covered services unless the health-care provider gives such advance notice in writing, the patient signs an agreement to be liable for payment, and the provider tells the patient that he or she might get free treatment elsewhere, the suits say.
The suits don't specify the types of treatment each patient received or what conditions these patients were treated for.
Besides the hospitals, each complaint lists 50 unidentified defendants the complaints say are employees or agents of the hospitals, whose activities allegedly caused the improper billing.
How can you sue when you are defrauding welfare?...You should have never been on welfare!
With or without insurance, why does anyone think they do not have to pay their bills when it comes to health care. This is nothing but lawyers and freeloaders wanting money. Do you go to a restaurant, a grocery store, a mechanic without any intention of paying? I have worked for both of these fine instituions and I know for a fact the financial counselors would help you anyway they could to set up a payment plan. I am so tired of people thinking that they do not have to pay their bills when it comes to health care. Hospitals do not operate without money. They have payroll, maintenance bills, utilities, equipment, etc. to pay for and you don't think you have to pay for some of the finest healthcare in the Valley. PAY YOUR BILLS!!!!

While shopping for clothing or accessories you may have come across material called PU Leather or faux leather and asked yourself, What is PU Leather?
There is a difference between regular or original leather and PU leather. PU leather can be described as faux leather or synthetic leather. It sometimes consists of split leather combined with a layer of polyurethane which is embossed onto the surface. It is also referred to as bicast leather but has some similarities to original or genuine leather. Genuine leather is durable, of superior quality and will mostly last a very long time. Synthetic leather on the other hand is man made and looks and feels a lot like original leather.
Products such as purses, handbags, clutches are designed to look like genuine products made of real leather. With the current economy, more and more fashion focused people prefer trendy yet affordable products and will lean towards PU products. Here is our rundown of PU Leather vs Genuine Leather
- PU leather based products really look great, last long and need little care.
- Leather needs regular care and is quite expensive.
- PU products do not wear easily even though they do not last as long as genuine leather.
- PU Leather will however need regular care such as cleaning to remove dirt and dust and other contaminants.
- Should PU leather products such as a purses or handbags get damaged, they can easily be repaired and more easily be replaced.
- While genuine leather is great, it is costly and needs regular maintenance.
- PU leather products are more affordable, durable, reliable and look just as great as other products.
While it is less durable than original leather, it is considerably cheaper and is used to produce great looking, affordable products such as wallets, purses and handbags that are comparable to the leather versions. For more fashion related articles and directories, check out Fashion Listings!

The Enchanted City Of Columns
The columns of İstanbul – usually referred to by the public as the "erected stones" – should not just be viewed as symbols of political strength or as İstanbul's ornaments. These columns used to have different functions that are little known today. All but one of them are talismans.
To protect their beautiful city from various disasters or outbreaks of illness, the inhabitants of İstanbul adorned the city with talismans. In total, 24 talismans were installed in Pagan-era İstanbul. Though they were reminders of pagan times, these enchanted columns were not demolished once Christianity became the official state religion. In fact, the Emperor Constantine erected his own statue atop one of these columns and and protected them.
In time, new columns were added to those which existed to adorn the city. The Obelisk of Theodosius, which was brought from Egypt, and the Serpent Column from Delphi were placed at the center of the Hippodrome. Thus, columns became an inseparable part of İstanbul's identity. During the time of the Ottoman Empire, these columns also attracted the attention of Evliya Çelebi, our famous traveler. Though they have succumbed to disasters, natural wear and tear, and have dwindled in number over time, some of these columns have managed to carry on their existence up to today.
A comprehensive development effort began to renew İstanbul, which was designed as the center of a giant empire. In a separate effort, a new city – Nova Roma – was created with artifacts brought from various parts of the world. The Milestone, which appears quite insignificant nowadays, was erected at ground zero of this new capital, which was to become the center of the entire world. This is where Mesa began, the main avenue of the city. The most important structures were also positioned around the vicinity: the Hagia Sofia, center of religious life; and the Hippodrome, center of social life.
The columns erected at the center (Spina) of the Hippodrome, some of which are still standing today to the amazement of viewers, are among the favorite of tourists. The most important of these is the obelisk erected by Emperor Theodosius the Great in 390 AD and named after him, The Obelisk of Theodosius. The ruler of Egypt, Tutmosis III, had erected it in front of the Temple of Karnak in Luxor in 1150 BCE to commemorate a victory.
Another column in the same square is the Serpent Column, another monument to a victory, which was erected in Delphi. It is accepted that the column was produced by melting down the shields of Persian soldiers who were killed in the Battle of Plataea. According to Çelebi, the column was enchanted by a soothsayer and protected the city against poisonous creatures such as snakes and scorpions.
The third column on this route is the Walled Obelisk , believed to be erected by Emperor Constantine VII Porphyrogenitus, though other views do exist. Besides seeing use as a climbing tower for the Turks due to its height of 32 meters, the column's purpose as a talisman was, according to Çelebi, to soothe the inhabitants of İstanbul in times of scarcity.
As we move out to Divanyolu Avenue and walk toward Beyazıt, on the right side of the rode we see The Column of Constantine. Legend has it that the Christians' most important relics are buried beneath the column, which is known as Çemberlitaş – "ringed stone" – in Turkish and is also called the "Burnt Column" by some foreigners due to the fact that it became discolored by fires.
A statue of a starling which was located at its top when it was first built would let out a piercing cry in times of famine, calling other starlings which would save the city from starvation with the olives that they would bring with them. Constantine had this statue knocked down, having his own statue erected in its place. This statue was knocked down as a result of a lightning strike in 1081. The column was eventually repaired by Alexios Komnenos and a cross was erected at its peak. The column, which later saw damage due to various fires and earthquakes, was encircled by a stone wall as a final measure likely after the fire of 1799.
The Column of Arcadius, which is located in the Arcadius Forum (known today as Cerrahpaşa) was erected by the eponymous emperor to commemorate his father, Theodosius I, and his own victories. The top of the column, which stood 40 meters high at that time, was reached through a spiral staircase built within it. The structure, which gradually came to be surrounded by houses as the area became densely populated, was damaged by a fire which broke out in the 17th century, and was removed in 1715 due to fears that it would collapse. According to Evliya Çelebi, there was a beautiful statue of a fairy to guard the city against danger housed in the lodge at the top of the column. The fairy's mission was to alert the approach of the enemy by sounding a piercing cry, which would also draw the birds in the vicinity. This statue was demolished during the reign of Emperor Constantine; bells were hung in its place to signal the arrival of the enemy.
The column, known today as Kıztaşı ("Girl's Stone" in Turkish), was erected in Saraçhane for the Emperor Marcian. There is a a capital decorated with Roman eagles in relief topping it, which used to have a bronze statue of Marcianus standing on it. It is thought that its local name, "Girl's Stone", is due to the statue of Nike which appears at its base. On the other hand, the name is ascribed to an alternate origin in a story repeated by Çelebi. According to the story, a sarcophagus at the top of the column contained the body of the daughter of one of İstanbul's kings, who had passed away in an untimely fashion. The talismanic power of the column known as the "Girl's Stone", then, was to prevent the premarital death of girls who embraced it.
Çemberlitaş Sütunu ile ilgili en çarpıcı şehir efsanesi, temelinde Kudüs'ten getirilen ve isa peygambere ait olduğuna inanılan bazı hatıraların olduğu rivayetidir. Gövdesindeki metal halkalarla İstanbul'un en dikkat çeken sütunlarından biridir Çemberlitaş Sütunu. Sütun, M.S. 4. yüzyılda, aynı zamanda İstanbul kentinin isim babası olan imparator I. Konstantin adına dikildi. imparator I. Konstantin'in emriyle Roma kentindeki Apollon Mabedi'nden alınarak İstanbul'a getirilen Çemberlitaş Sütunu bu yönüyle devşirme bir yapı. Büyük Konstantin'in bu sütunu Roma'dan getirip, yeni başkentine dikmesi aslında bu yeni kentin, yani İstanbul'un 'Nova Roma' yani Yeni Roma oluşunun da bir tesciliydi adeta. Zamanın yıpratıcılığına ve İstanbul'un depremlerine direnerek günümüze kadar ulaşan eserin en üst bölümünde çeşitli imparatorların heykelleri arz-ı endam ederdi. Apollon Sütunu olarak da adlandırılan Çemberlitaş Sütunu'nun günümüze kadar ulaşmasında Osmanlı döneminde gördüğü bakım ve tamirlerin de payı büyüktür.
The most remarkable urban legend surrounding the Column of Constantine (aka the 'Burnt Column') is the belief that it was brought from Jerusalem and contained relics from the life of Jesus. Among İstanbul's columns it stands out for the metal hoops that encircle it. Erected in the 4th century A.D. by Constantine I (the Great), the Byzantine emperor for whom the city was named, it was removed at his behest from the Temple of Apollo in Rome and brought to İstanbul and is therefore a composite structure.
Constantine the Great's bringing this 'Column of Apollo' from Rome and erecting it in his new capital virtually clinched the city's identity as 'Nova Roma', or the New Rome. Down the centuries, statues of various emperors stood atop the column, which has endured time's depredations and İstanbul's earthquakes to survive to our day, thanks in large part to repairs and maintenance during the Ottoman period.

Mitchell drops to 1-6 and 0-2 in the Western Highlands Conference, and Polk improves to 7-1 and 2-1.
Ollis had a 40-yard punt return and also threw a 2-point conversion pass to Derrick Overholt to make it 8-0.
Ollis then showed off his defensive skills with a 42-yard interception return for a touchdown in the same quarter. Ethan Edwards kicked the point after, the only point Ollis wasn't responsible for.

PDF (vorgängige Working paper Version)
View at publisher
India's negotiation strategies in international climate policy have considerably changed over the past decade. While core positions have not altered substantially, the way they were presented and supported at the international level reveals major changes. In particular between 2007 and 2011, India's international climate policy shifted from defensive, pure distributive strategies toward mixed strategies with a number of 'value-creating' elements, dynamism and flexibility became clearly visible in India's international climate policy. This shift is confirmed by evidence from a novel dataset based on an assessment of country submissions at the UNFCCC negotiations, negotiation summaries and interviews with an Indian delegate and representatives of other delegations. India's change in strategy appears to be driven by several factors: developments in the national political landscape whereby the personality of the delegation leader and minister in charge plays a critical role, a general trend related to rising public awareness of India's vulnerability to climate change, increasing domestic energy constraints, direct economic benefits from the Kyoto Protocol's market mechanisms, reactions to international pressure from other developing countries, and increased reporting by domestic media.

WATCH: Mila Kunis Confirms That She WILL Attend Marine Corps Ball
Mila Kunis has confirmed, once and for all, that she will be attending the Marine Corps Ball in Greenville, North Carolina on November 18.
As you'll recall, a marine in Afghanistan named Scott Moore made a YouTube video in which he asked the actress to go as his date to the event.
It was very sweet, and Kunis accepted.
Then Billy Bush said on "Access Hollywood" that Kunis would not be going due to other obligations, which sparked a round of will-she-or-won't-she rumors.
Alongside Justin Timberlake at a press event for their movie Friends With Benefits, Kunis said she'd "happily" clear it up.
"Do not believe what Billy Bush says," began Kunis. "Please, I beg of you."
"Never did I say that I was not going; he made it up and people believed it, unfortunately."
"I am attending," confirmed Kunis. I'm going November 18. I will be there… I accepted an invitation, and I'm staying true to my word."

[UPDATE: This offer has been extended to June 30, 2014!]
We live in a world with a million free VST plug-ins, a quarter million amp companies, racks and stacks of dusty vintage gear with true-analog vintage mojo, and new gear from hundreds of manufacturers popping up every month. For the budget-minded recordist, it can be a lot to take it at once, and settling on the right gear can sometimes be more work than making a record itself. With so many people asking so many questions about the "right" way to record, it's a wonder Google hasn't broken yet.
Searches for "how do I record X" often return a stormy HTML sea of online audio recording punditry. Amidst the results, however, one often finds a familiar refrain that goes something like this:
The spirit of "Less is more," in this case, applies to both the AudioBox USB design mindset and money. Because until June 30, 2014, we're offering $30 off of the AudioBox USB. (US Pricing, offer may vary in your local market, please check with your local distributor) There's no rebate paperwork, no waiting period, and no searching under the front seat of the car for the receipt that you lost. Just lower prices on the AudioBox USB, the world over.
The trusty, sturdy AudioBox USB is aimed squarely at the back-to-basics recording mindset. You get two 1/4″ XLR combo jacks, ideal for recording guitar and vocals simultaneously, MIDI in and Out, Main Outs for your monitor speakers, and a headphone out. Keeping things simple also means keeping them small, and the AudioBox USB will slip right into most any laptop case for recording on the go. Furthermore, it's USB bus-powered, which means you don't have to worry about pesky dead batteries or AC power cables mucking up your session.
Want to record a coffeeshop gig without lugging a mixer around? Want to record a solo acoustic guitar performance from the top of a tree? Want to record an impromtu jam session while riding the bus? The AudioBox USB makes all of these ideas possible.
It also works on your ideas.
Taylor Nauta consistently sounds great, and we felt that the ADL 700 and ADL 600 preamps would really do his tones justice. So, we invited him by the new HQ, brought him to the live room, and recorded a few tracks.
Taylor's voice is running through the ADL 700, and his guitar is recorded through a direct input into the first channel of the ADL 600, as well as by a mic run into the second channel.

In the past, Melissa McCarthy has been a favorite host on "Saturday Night Live." So, it's probably no mistake that "SNL" has chosen the funny lady to host the late night staple on Super Bowl weekend.
According to Variety via Yahoo! on Jan. 12, the versatile actress will be in charge on the Feb. 1 episode. No musical guests have been announced as of this writing.
By way of background, Melissa McCarthy has hosted "SNL" twice already so this will be her third time out of the gate. She has been a ratings winner both times she took on this fun yet rigorous NBC gig, so she'll probably cause the TV program to be bursting with big numbers after the Super Bowl weekend telecast.
McCarthy owns a number of huge entertainment credits regarding both the big and the small screens. A former member of the celebrated Groundlings, the prolific thespian who was nominated for an Oscar for her role in "Bridemaids" first became known via her role as Sookie in "Gilmore Girls."
In 2013, this enduring thespian went head-to-head with Sandra Bullock to star in the buddy flick called "The Heat." Her latest effort on the big screen is in "Tammy" with Susan Sarandon, set to hit theaters this summer.
And so, as Melissa McCarthy takes the "SNL" reins on Super Bowl weekend, this particular equine reference is spot on in the sense that this role as host with this Hollywood heavy hitter should drive the television ratings race like no other. Stay tuned.

Dec. 5, 2008
Cary, NC - The UCLA women's soccer team saw its undefeated season come to an end on Friday night, falling to North Carolina, 1-0 in the semifinals of the NCAA College Cup before 8,926 fans at the WakeMed Soccer Park. The game's only goal was scored in the 41st minute on a penalty kick by North Carolina's Yael Averbuch.
"I thought it was an outstanding game," said UCLA head coach Jillian Ellis. "I congratulate North Carolina and I wish them well. I'm just exceptionally proud of my team. I thought it was a game with two halves. I felt if we would have put two halves together as we played in the second half, we would have had maybe a different result."
UCLA (22-1-2) suffered some bad luck early on, as senior midfielder McCall Zerboni suffered an ankle injury in just the 18th minute and did not return the rest of the match. Zerboni , who was the Bruins' emotional leader this year, led the team in scoring during the NCAA Tournament with nine points (4g, 1a).
North Carolina's goal came with less than five minutes left in the first half when the referee called a penalty kick after Tar Heel Brittani Bartok was brought down in the box on a tackle by Bruin defender Erin Hardy. Averbuch took the kick, sending a low-liner to the bottom right corner. Bruin goalkeeper Ashley Thompson guessed correct on the shot, however the ball slipped just beyond her fingertips and into the goal.
"I wasn't nervous," said Thompson of facing the penalty kick. "I just stayed calm. She showed me which way she was going and I was just unfortunate to not get there far enough to the left."
Added Hardy on the called foul in the box, "I didn't see a replay - they didn't replay it on the big screen. I didn't think I got contact with her feet. I think it's a hard call to make in the Final Four."
Despite being down 1-0, UCLA regrouped at halftime and was able to put together several quality scoring chances in the second half. Probably the Bruins' best chance of the night came just minutes into the half, as midfielder Kara Lang got some space in the box and tried to slip a right-footed shot past UNC goalkeeper Ashlyn Harris, who was forced to make a diving stab at the ball to keep it out of the net.
"We believe in each other and we just picked each other up and we were ready to get a goal back," said Hardy of the team's effort in the second half. "Unfortunately we didn't get that."
Said North Carolina head coach Anson Dorrance, "I want to congratulate UCLA. I thought we played a good first half, but I thought they played a great second half so we feel very fortunate to be sitting here as a 1-0 victor. I'm thrilled."
Notes: North Carolina (23-1-2) advances to face Notre Dame (26-0) in Sunday's NCAA Final ... Despite the loss, the Bruins still set a new school record for fewest losses in a season, suffering just one defeat in 25 matches ... UCLA fell just one win shy of breaking the school record for victories in a season, ending the season with 22 (the Bruins also had 22 wins in 2005) ... It marked the sixth straight season (and seventh time in program history) that UCLA has advanced to the Final Four ... UCLA's seniors finish their careers with four College Cup appearances, four Pac-10 titles and an overall record of 85-9-6 ... The Bruins move to 0-7 all time against the Tar Heels (0-4 in College Cup meetings) ... All four teams in this year's NCAA College Cup were the No. 1 seeds in their respective regions.

The WWE '13 video game trailer is finally staying up on YouTube. The trailer will be revealed on Monday's Raw Supershow as being behind the "A Revolution is Coming" cryptic video campaign. You can view the trailer embedded in the video below:
Wrestling news, rumors, spoilers and results. We are a leading resource for WWE, TNA and everything related to pro wrestling.
By Richard Gray
Bout time CM Punk is on the cover!
This game looks awesome I can't wait until it comes out. I will be getting a copy as I do every year for my birthday. The grapics look sick and the attitude era looks like it will be alive and well in wwe13. Punk looks to be the cover boy this year which is awesome if you are a Punk fan this proves that he is the number three guy behind Cena and Orton.
Cool features, but I still think the animations are outdated and too 'animated'/cartoony, the should begin using their UFC design for the characters in the WWE games.. Looking forward to seeing more
Let down
How is it a let down? It is in the beta stage.
That looks very interesting.
This franchise has needed a reboot for a while. It has become too focused on recreating a WWE show. The last thing this game needs is more realism over better gameplay. If I want to see an episode of Monday Night Raw I'll watch Monday Night Raw.
ECW chants at the end
The Revolution is a new WWE video game? What a let down. Get ready to get booed out of the arena, WWE…
Oh how it is so fun to watch the people who don't like video games be PO'd about it tehehe.
You can't exactly get upset when they didn't even run it on TV. If it had been important in terms of storyline, they'd of put it on TV. It wasn't, so they didn't.

The latest issue of Cultural Anthropology features an article by Revealer writer Yasmin Moll (read the entire issue here) titled, "Building the New Egypt: Islamic Televangelists, Revolutionary Ethics, and 'Productive' Citizenship." (You can read Yasmin's article and the entire issue here. You can read Yasmin's articles for The Revealer here.) An excerpt from "Building the New Egypt":
While the revolution started as a response to the neo-liberal policies pursued by the Mubarak regime in its later years (Armbrust 2011), the idea of individual economic productivity as the "solution" only makes sense through neo-liberalism's own normative lens of what makes for good governance and what doesn't (cf. Mikdashi 2011). Within this discursive universe, individual citizens are morally responsible for economically improving both their own lives and the lives of others through their own efforts, rather than through holding the nation-state accountable to its own developmentalist rhetoric.
Kyrgyzstan has taken steps to ban Sun Myung Moon's Unification Church. The country's prosecutor general began court proceedings last month, though exact motives for the case are unclear.
Rightly, a lot of concern U.S is being expressed for religious persecution of Christians around the world (of note, not for Unification Church members). You can read up on how persecution of Christians worldwide is being used to justify Islamophobia at persecution.org. (via where else? Family Research Council.)
Kristin Rawls (who's working on a piece for us about redemption and feminism!) has an article at AlterNet today on the involvement of U.S. Christian groups with anti-gay legislation in Africa. She writes:
We really just know one thing with certainty: Members of the Christian right in the United States are promoting human rights abuses against LGBT people throughout the continent. But it is not always possible to find specific information about what they do. Very few American evangelicals are willing to admit the extent of their involvement in the wave of anti-gay legislation sweeping Africa.
The revolution will not be rebranded! "If you're having trouble sleeping at night, don't worry: it's not the high prices, poverty, or unemployment. You are suffering from Islamic Awakening."
Surprise! The American Constitution is no longer the model for democracy around the world:
There are lots of possible reasons. The United States Constitution is terse and old, and it guarantees relatively few rights. The commitment of some members of the Supreme Court to interpreting the Constitution according to its original meaning in the 18th century may send the signal that it is of little current use to, say, a new African nation. And the Constitution's waning influence may be part of a general decline in American power and prestige.

I'm in the same exact spot in my pregnancy except not in the hospital yet...did you end up having the baby early?posted 10/29/2015 by a BabyCenter Member
So imagine a tube. About 3-5cm long and 0cm open, ok so for birth that tube has to change to 0cm long and 10cm open. So your effacement is how long soft etc that tube now is and the cm is how big that tube is becoming. P.s. the tube is your cervix. Ok so for birth you will be 100% effaced and 10cm. Effacement happens in the weeks leading up to birth, it varies and changes randomly, rapidly or not at all. Dilation is getting to 10cm is usually while contractions happen because baby's head is pushing, stretching it open. There's potential to have your baby early, its hard to tell. If you're having contractions, serious ones then more likely then not. But they may try to slow it down because your baby is still a bit too underdeveloped.

THANKS! Super Streetbike
for the feature on the 1993/2003 CBR900RR/954RR build
I have a confession to make..... this may sound like the beginning of a 12 step program.....My
dirty little secret is that I have been building a Honda..... yes... GSXR fans..a Honda. But not just any Honda.. a
1993 CBR900RR with a transplanted 2003 CBR954RR fuel injected motor...after fabricating the frame using pieces from a spare
CBR1000RR frame, this little sleeper has been thoroughly massaged and worked to be as slick and inconspicuous as a first generation
superbike... can be. Think of it as a "Pro-touring"
class of superbike. All new EVERYTHING. Dunlop Q2 tires, Supersprox Chainwheels, RK chain, EBC brakes, Ohlins rear shock,
Goodridge brake lines, New PPG paint, Servo Buddy, Luimoto seat cover, Two Brothers carbon cannister...Ballistic Lithium lightweight

can be serviced by any professional that can work on a Honda.
After months of work, the 1994 Suzuki GSX-R 7/11 is finished. Starting with a 1994 GSX-R 750 chassis, it was completely
stripped to the frame and painted a satin black. ..a 1996 GSX-R1100 engine lives where the 750 used to, breathing through
K&N filter pods the Mikuni 38mm CV are tuned and rebuilt. including new pilot jets, needles, float valve,seats and o rings,
all new rubber gaskets... also utilizing Factory Pro extened air fuel mixture screws that can be adjusted without removing
the carbs....Making the glorious noise is a a beautiful Yoshimura TRS titanium exhaust pipe with a carbon fiber silencer. The

College Hockey:This Week in the ECAC Northeast
Were right in the thick of things, coach Rob Davies said of his conference-leading Curry College Colonels. We had a tough game against Becker the other night. They played very well and gave us all we can handle. We were fortunate to get the win. Now weve got Wentworth and Nichols coming up. Right now, its there for anyone.
Currently in first place in the ECAC NE with a record of 7-1-1, and an overall mark of 9-8-1, Davies isnt kidding when he infers that things are up for grabs. The contest on February 2 against Nichols pits the Colonels against a team with the best overall record in the conference, as the Bisons are currently 11-3-1. Keep in mind that with the recent Western New England College win over UMass-Dartmouth, that any team in the league may now be capable of banking a win on any given night.
One thing Davies knows he has going for him is a potent offense. The Colonels lead the league with 55 goals scored in nine games and overall they have scored 74 times in 18 games, which is one less than Nichols total of 75 goals in 15 games.
Davies knows where some of these goals are coming from.
Were fortunate to have a power play thats scoring at about a 33% clip, so were getting some production out of our power play. It seems, though, that were just scoring enough goals to win.
Perhaps in overall play that might be the case, as Curry has surrendered just fewer than three goals per game, while scoring just over four goals. In league play, though, they are more dominant, scoring 6.1 goals per game while giving up just 2.3 per game.
When asked who is leading the way for the Colonels offensively, Davies didnt have to wait long to respond.
[Jeffrey] Hazelwood and [Jason]Yuel are carrying a lot of the load. [James] Pentecost has scored some timely goals. Were getting production from guys, and getting everyone to play even hockey, then letting the go to guys be the difference makers.
Yuel and Hazelwood can certainly qualify as go to guys so far. A freshman out of Winnipeg, Manitoba, Yuel has 15 goal and 12 assists for 27 points in 18 games so far. His eight power-play goals lead the conference. Hazelwood, a junior out of California, also has 27 points, tallying nine goals and 18 assists. He is second on the team with five power-play goals.
Pentecost is second on the team with 11 goals, and he has also added two assists. Two of his goals have been short-handed. Also adding to the dynamic offense is Ross Enmark, who is averaging a point per game with 6-12-18.
Back on the blue-line, Davies said that Jarrett Rush has played very well for us, and Jarrett Souza has been steady as of late. Trevor Speridi has been a good asset to us, weve used him a couple of times up front, and on the point. He has a lot of versatility, and with seven guys out hurt, that helps.
In goal, Davies has been rotating sophomores Stephen Jakiel and Zachary Caredella.
Goaltending is going to be the backbone of our hockey club, he said. We have two of the top three goalies, and theyre still competing with one another and trying to bring the best out.
Even though Jakiel played a strong game in the win over Becker, Davies plans on keeping the rotation going, and will start Cardella on Saturday against Wentworth.
Whether or not the rotation ends, and Davies goes with one goalie, will be determined by the young men who don the pads. Jakiel is currently 6-2-1 with a 2.64 goals against average and a .894 save percentage. Cardella has a record of 3-6-0, and his GAA is 2.91, but his save percentage of .917 is second in the conference.
Its amazing when you have everyone playing for a cause, Davies said when asked about his overall thoughts on the league. Its inspired hockey, and amazing what you can do. Were all trying to get fire under our guys and inspire them to play to their potential, or above their potential.

Like most of the things in my life, I make snap decisions. I could go on about how first impressions are vital in this fast paced, internet driven world of ours, but that would take too long.
I like trailers. Sometimes they're the best part of going to the movie. So I'm starting a new series, where I make possible gaming decisions based on the trailers the studios release to get our attention. Onto to the pre-judging!
Sengoku Basara Samurai Heroes
I'd gladly watch someone else play this game. Not to say that it doesn't look amazing; the graphics, game-play and story are all on par for an epic adventure game. But I personally don't think I could last long between the larger than life fighting, which, even watching a video, I couldn't follow how the characters were defeating any of the baddie. It was a bit on the sensory overload side. And the dialog popping up practically in the middle of the screen didn't help matters.
Lord of the Rings: Aragorn's Quest
I personally love that they're still making Lord of the Ring games. And even more so that Sean Astin and John Rhys-Davies are providing voices in this latest game. It's a lot brighter and upbeat than some Rings games, but it worked for the setup of this version of the classic events through the eyes of Sam as he explains to his children about that one time him and some other guys fought some orcs. Though if I were to buy and play it, I'd definitely have to go with the Wii version; I can't resist a pretend sword fight.
Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds
I don't know much about this series of games; superheroes have never really been my forte. But I will admit curiosity to know more about them after seeing the trailer. Street Fighter with comic heroes; I could get behind that. Especially if it means classic heroes like Captain America and Iron Man calling for me to 'finish them', then I'm all on board.
Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock
Just like karaoke, I usually play Guitar Hero after a few too many drinks. So as much as an eight player game along with a "roadie" connected via their DS to make things even more exciting seems like an awesome expansion to this franchise, I know I'd feel like things were getting to intense; and not in a good way. Plus, no band needs that many guitarist; just saying. I miss the days of finishing Slow Ride and feeling like I was a musician god. Or maybe that's just all the booze talking.
Final Fantasy XIV Online
I'm not as attracted to the characters as I was in XIII, but I still loved the look of the latest in the online MMO franchise. And since they can all stand on their own, anyone new to the Final Fantasy series could easily jump in on this latest one without feeling like they missed anything. The lead character even shoots arrows that are on fire. What more could you want? And if the opening cinematic trailer is anything to go by, the game-play and graphics are still just as creepily realistic yet intriguing as always.

The Picó Pomar Residence
Photo courtesy of the Puerto Rico Office of Historic Preservation
Built in 1840 for José Pomar, a wealthy merchant from Mallorca, Spain, the Picó Pomar Residence represents the austerity and elegance of the Spanish neoclassical style. During the second half of the 19th century, it functioned as one of Puerto Rico's most active and important import-export centers. With store and storage space at ground level and residence quarters above, the building follows 19th-century Spanish urban tradition. During the Spanish-American War the house was occupied by Lt. Col. Rafael Martínez Illescas of the Spanish army, who was killed in the conflict, and later by U.S. General James Harrison Wilson (1837-1925). The property and its contents were purchased by Coamo's Municipal Government and turned into a museum.
Picó Pomar Residence, also called the Coamo Historic Museum, is located at the corner of Mario Braschi and José Quinton sts. in the city of Coamo, Puerto Rico. Call 787-825-1150 ext. 206 for more information.

Dow theory
How to use one of the first technical theories to help forecast the market's next move.
- Fidelity Active Trader News
- – 06/26/2015
If you use technical analysis, you have Charles Dow—cofounder of the Wall Street Journal and Dow Jones Industrial Average—to thank. He created the principles of "Dow theory," a foundation of modern technical analysis, which is still valid today.
Why is Dow theory important? Can it help you trade?
All technical analysis derives from Charles Dow's findings that markets move in trends, and that these trends are discernable. Dow, who died in 1902, used the analogy of the ebb and flow of tides to describe how the market acts. He believed that stocks move in trends, similar to how water crashes onto the beach, leaving patterns in the sand to show where high and low tides may occur. Quite obviously, if you can identify the direction of market trends, you may be able to better position your portfolio.
Dow theory primer
When Dow was researching the market in the late 1800s, there were far fewer stocks, and indexes would not become as commonly used as they are now for quite some time. Dow, who was well ahead of his time in terms of how he looked at the overall market, created two indexes (or averages, as they are referred to in Dow theory): Industrials and Transports. These averages served as the basis for his analysis of primary and secondary trends.
Here are the key tenets of Dow theory:
- The primary trend is inviolate.
- The averages discount everything.
- The theory is not infallible.
"The primary trend is inviolate" refers to the idea that the general direction of the market is not determined by the actions of big participants, but rather by the natural movements of the market as a whole.
The most relevant aspect of Dow theory is his assertion that "the averages discount everything," with the market moving in waves (see sidebar). Dow thought that market moves could be forecasted because the movement of the averages (or indexes, as we now more commonly refer to them) included expectations for the future. This idea, that markets are forward looking and we can observe expected behavior in price action, is the crux of all technical analysis.
Dow theory in action
If there is one critical thing to know about Dow theory, it is this: the averages must confirm one another. For example, suppose during a bull rally that the Transports made a new relative high, but the Industrials did not. The fact that the averages did not confirm one another (that is, both did not make new relative highs) may indicate a reversal. Consequently, both averages might fall below a significant intermediate support level (see chart below).
In addition to Dow's belief that the movements of the averages must confirm each other, he thought that volume must confirm the trend as well. He assumed an existing trend to be in place until clear signals, confirmed by volume, indicated that it has reversed.
Investing implications
Of course, Dow theory is one more way that you may try to assess the market. Many technical analysts use several tools and methods, including fundamental analysis, to help spot changes in trends. Dow theory, created by the father of technical analysis, can be another tool at your disposal.

Hezbollah suffer 28 losses in Syrian violence
28 Hezbollah fighters and an estimated 20 Syrian Army members have been killed during clashes in the Syrian town of Qusair on Monday, Reuters reported.
This death toll is Hezbollah's highest so far in the two-year old Syrian civil war. More than 70 fighters have been reported wounded by the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.
This number comes the day after 40 fighters were killed during the same clashes.
Many funerals for dead soldiers were held in Lebanon, especially in the Bekka valley, where mourning civilians partook in funeral processions that flooded the streets.
On the ground in Qusair, reports suggest that troops loyal to the Syrian regime have retaken several villages around the city, which has always been a rebelstronghold.
According to Reuters, army forces have also launched attacks against the rebel-held Homs, which is becoming "increasingly isolated" in the conflict.
"If Qusair falls, God forbid, the opposition in Homs city will be in grave danger," said an activist who called himself Abu Jaafar Al Mugharbil, speaking to Reuters.

CHICAGO, Ill. (Ivanhoe Newswire) -- Umbilical cord stem cell banking can be expensive and controversial, but Jamie and Ben Page decided to bank their daughter Harlow's stem cells, just in case. Then, "just in case" became a reality.
She spins, kicks, and giggles. Like most five year olds, Harlow Page is full of energy.
"This is Harlow when she was first born. We had heard about cord blood banking and talked about it a lot and thought let's just go for it and have it just as a backup," Jamie Page, Harlow's mom, told Ivanhoe.
It turns out they did need it. Harlow had cancer in her uterus.
"On the ultrasound they immediately saw that there was a mass in her abdomen about the size of a grapefruit," Jamie said.
After a year of chemo, the tumor was gone. Doctors wanted to keep it that way.
"So, when the doctors found out we actually had her own stem cells they were very excited," Jamie said.
"I think that her umbilical cord cells were used as a boost to her own cells when we harvested her to have adequate cells for reconstitution," Elaine Morgan, MD, Oncologist, Lurie Children's Memorial Hospital, told Ivanhoe.
Dr. Morgan does not advocate private cord stem cell banking at birth to be saved for a healthy baby's later use, because it's not clinically useful and it's expensive.
The Pages paid almost $2,000 for the initial banking fee, plus an extra $125 per year.
Dr. Morgan says banking for a sick sibling is worthwhile. She says only one-in-four siblings are a match and sometimes finding a match can be difficult.
"We could come across a patient who's HLA type doesn't match with anything that's already in the bank," Dr. Morgan said.
Just before her fifth birthday Harlow's cancer returned. Her parents say the stem cells gave her four years to grow strong so her body could fight this.
Harlow has undergone radiation and surgery to remove the tumor. She's receiving 40 weeks of chemo.
"We still think she has a really good chance of being cured with her current therapy," Jamie said.
The Pages say banking Harlow's stem cells was easy. Right after birth the doctor collected the blood and a courier took it to the bank. There are a number of umbilical cord stem sell banking companies online.
The Pages recommend doing your research to find a reputable one. They chose a private bank, but say if you choose not to go that route consider donating in order to provide a potential match for someone in need.
