Oppo Find 7 with QHD screen now up for pre-order in China, launches on May 29
The Oppo Find 7 was announced in mid-March, and its cheaper version (with 'just' a 1080p Full HD screen) went on sale in China the day after the unveiling. That SKU, also known as the Find 7a, has even been up for order internationally already.
However, the true flagship in Oppo's portfolio, the actual Find 7, better known as the model with a 2,560×1,440 touchscreen (QHD), has so far been missing in action. Now though the Chinese company has started taking pre-orders for this beast, yet only in China.
If you are over there and have to have the Find 7, then you can head to Tmall and pre-order one now. The release date seems to be set at May 29, which is a bit over three weeks from today. That's quite some time to wait, but not more than you've already had to go through since March, obviously.
The QHD Oppo Find 7 should make its way to international markets at some point after the China launch – we're guessing this will happen in June at the earliest.
In China, the Find 7 is priced at 3,498 yuan (which means about $561 or €402 at the current exchange rates), but elsewhere it will be sold for $599.
Aside from the screen resolution, compared to the Find 7a the Find 7 has a higher clocked processor (2.5 GHz compared to 2.3 GHz), 1 extra GB of RAM, 32 GB of storage (and not 16), and a 3,000 mAh battery (up from 2,800 on the cheaper model).

We knew when we bought our house in summer 2010 that we wanted to do a few cosmetic things to the kitchen down the road. After a complete demo and remodel to the kitchen in our former house, we are totally spoiled and want to be just as in love with this kitchen. It is where we spend the most time as a family.
It's a great space. It has beautiful light throughout the day and we don't mind the layout. It just needs some updating. Here is what it looked like when we closed on the house:
Immediately we made the island all one level and ditched the granite for a hickory top. We also painted the walls a pretty gray, and added gray tile (leftover from a former project) from the top of the backsplash to the ceiling. We got rid of the blue tile behind the range and replaced it with the same gray tile.
We changed out the light fixtures, replaced the trash compactor with an ice machine, and put an under-the-counter microwave in the place of the third oven. Yes, there were three ovens there.
The goal was to make it more neutral without any huge changes, livable and to our taste for a few years. The week we moved in until now, our kitchen has looked like this:
We wanted to make it at least another year, but a few things have happened that make us think our cosmetic changes might take place sometime in 2012. For example our range is beyond repair and we're in desperate need of a new one. Last week half of my brownie pan baked, and the other half stayed liquid. So I've started clicking around and trying to decide what I want the final kitchen to look like.
For sure we want:
- a new range
- new countertops
- repainted cabinets, possibly refaced but not replaced, with select new cabinet guts
- new pulls
- new floors
After looking at lots of pictures and wanting to go in a different direction that our previous white kitchen, we thought we wanted black cabinets. The Gorilla is a whiz on photoshop and he mocked up what black cabinets would look like.
We hated it. Good thing we didn't make that expensive mistake!
But I'm really pretty darn set on honed marble countertops on the perimeter (we're going to keep the wood top on the island), so we thought maybe we'd keep the white and just do the island black.
We still hated it.
So, hmmmm. My absolute dream would be to have a pattered tile floor that's very graphic. Like here or here. So we mocked up what that might look like (I don't want checkered, but that works for general idea purposes):
Ahhhh, this makes me happy. And it makes me not hate the black island as much.
Our home was built in the 1920's, and The Gorilla and I have very specific taste. I don't have a final direction, but I do like some drama somewhere. You can follow where my head is going on my kitchen remodel pinterest board.
Why have we not used this photoshop mock-up idea before? It really helped us with the vision. Stay tuned as this story unfolds...
ps - do you have honed white marble countertops? I've heard all the mixed reviews, but I really want to speak with someone that actually HAS them. Everyone without them seems to have an opinion, but where are the people who own the kitchens in all the pictures?!

Are you interested in energy, the environment, climate change, past, present, and future, the chemistry of the cosmos, emerging issues in energy resources, or geochemistry? Do the mainstream media handle these topics enough? What about the niche media? In Sacramento in a few months there's a conference that will be commanding an increased media presence this year. It's Goldschmidt2014 -- The world's most important geochemistry conference that's due to take place in Sacramento, California from June 8th to June 13th, 2014. A bigger media presence, with more headline-making stories is planned. Goldschmidt2014 -- The world's most important Geochemistry conference is coming to Sacramento.
Last year, Goldschmidt 2013 took place in Florence. It provided us with some of the best-covered press stories of recent weeks, including: Did life begin on Mars rather than on earth? The Chelyabinsk meteor had an earlier collision, and New research show the frighteningly-named "Terror Bird", was probably a herbivore, according to the news release, "Goldschmidt2014 -- The world's most important geochemistry conference."
So if you're part of the media in Sacramento, especially if you write about climate change, science, energy, geochemistry, and related topics, you'll want to hear about what new announcements Goldschmidt2014 will have because it's due to take place in Sacramento, California from June 8th to 13th, 2014. If you want to attend, put the dates in your diary now.
This year a bigger media presence is planned, with more headline-making stories about the science behind geochemistry and how these affect the real world.
The 2014 topics at the conference include:
- Climate change, past present and future
- The chemistry of the cosmos
- Emerging issues in energy resources
Also check out the European Association of Geochemistry and the Goldschmidt2014 information website.
The Californian Goldschmidt will take place in Sacramento between June 8th and June 13th, 2014. Goldschmidt2014 will follow the pattern established for the recent Goldschmidt conferences, and should be the prime forum for all recent developments in Geochemistry and related fields.
Sacramento is the state capitol of California, famous as the heart of gold country and one of the the most important agricultural regions in the world. The venue is conveniently close to many of California's renowned geologic features including Yosemite Valley and the Sierra Nevada batholith, several ophiolite complexes, and the fossil subduction zone of the Franciscan Complex.
Sacramento is also well placed for excursions to the main Californian wine producing areas and other tourist areas in the state. If you're media and want news releases and information about the conference or circulars, you can enter your email address onto the conference mailing list. Check out what's open to the media.

Clark County database
650,000 cases and 280,000 arrests.
570,000 individuals and 8,700 aliases.
300,000 vehicles.
Portland metro-area database
4.1 million cases and 1.6 million arrests.
1.75 million individuals and 1.25 million aliases.
1.13 million vehicles.
Police officers will tell you: Criminals don't have boundaries.
That fact can put law enforcement at a disadvantage, with most agencies operating within city, county and state lines.
Take, for example, a career criminal from Portland, said Vancouver police Cmdr. Dave King. Portland officers are familiar with the individual — they know what he looks like, what car he drives, which crimes he is likely tied to — sometimes due to years of interactions. Washington law enforcement, however, isn't privy to that information, King said. It's the same for Portland officers dealing with criminals with Washington records.
That will all change as agencies in Clark County work with those in four Oregon counties over the next year and a half to create a regionwide network of information that will allow as many as 39 police agencies to easily share their reports.
"The fact is, you don't know what you don't know," King said. "Criminals go across the border just like we go across the border. Knowledge is power, and sharing that information makes us that much more efficient."
Crossing the lines
Some agencies in Clark County are already sharing their knowledge.
For example, the Clark County Sheriff's Office and police in Vancouver, Washougal and Camas share reporting software, and officers can view reports from each agency.
Across the river, the Portland Police Bureau shares a central records system with 26 other agencies in four adjacent Oregon counties.
The project, called the Regional Justice Information Network or RegJIN for short, will add Clark County and other Oregon law enforcement agencies to the shared database.
The set-up is beneficial for all involved agencies. Portland law enforcement will be able to view Clark County's 650,000 cases, and officers in Southwest Washington will gain access to more than 4.1 million cases from Oregon.
Jerry Schlesinger, RegJIN project manager for the city of Portland, said that sharing case information has been advantageous for the Portland area since it began adding agencies into its central data system in 1991.
"Unfortunately, bad guys don't stop at borders. They go across," Schlesinger said. "The ability to see their activities across the region helps law enforcement prevent crime."
System 'on borrowed time'
The idea to expand the regional database dates back to 2006, when the Portland police began looking to replace its aging software.
"The current system is old. It's on borrowed time," Schlesinger said. "They've been trying to upgrade it for years."
Similarly, the data software shared in Clark County is on its last legs, King said. During the process of planning an upgrade, Vancouver and Clark County officials became aware of Portland's efforts and jumped at the opportunity to access information on Oregon criminals and to avoid having to pay for a costly upgrade.
"As a county, it gives us the opportunity to move to new technology and not foot the entire bill for it," said Scott Kealoha, who is heading the project for the Clark County Sheriff's Office.
Portland has earmarked about $10 million to buy the new program from Versaterm, a Canadian-based company that has worked with public safety agencies across the United States.
The other agencies that participate in the network will split the cost to maintain the program by paying a yearly fee of between $45 and $75 per sworn officer. The cost will depend on how many agencies choose to participate. The Clark County Sheriff's Office and the Vancouver Police Department have committed to the project. Smaller police departments such as Camas, Ridgefield and Washougal have said they are interested in the project but are working to see whether they can make it work both financially and logistically.
Over the past three years, the Vancouver Police Department has secured $1 million in federal grants to go toward the records-management system. The money will pay for new hardware required for the software and to build an interface.
The agency has also offered to share some of that funding with the smaller agencies in Clark County, King said.
"VPD and CCSO are committed to making it possible for the small agencies to participate," King said. "If all the agencies in Clark County get on the RegJIN system, we could share information on local criminals and crime trends, as well as gain access to all the Portland agencies, and it increases our effectiveness in combating crime."
The new records setup has the potential to affect a $1.5 million contract that the Vancouver Police Department has with the Clark County Sheriff's Office to maintain its record services. Services include things such as responding to record requests made by the public and providing 24-hour warrant checks for officers.
What exactly that new agreement between the two agencies will look like, however, has yet to be determined.
Looking forward
All interested agencies in Clark, Multnomah, Washington, Clackamas and Columbia counties are scheduled to sign a master intergovernmental agreement — which stipulates how all the agencies will work together — by April.
In October, each agency will then sign a second contract with the Portland Police Bureau, which is also when city councils and county commissions will have to sign off.
The goal is to have the system go live by November 2014.
A lot of the details are in the works — for example, with different state laws in Washington, agencies on this side of the river are working to make sure their interface works for their enforcement.
The software also has the ability to manage property and evidence departments and the jail system, among other things. The details of whether local agencies will use this portion of Versaterm's capabilities have yet to be determined.
Once in place though, the network of information is expected to do a big part in leveling the playing field for law enforcement.
"This removes the anonymity that borders create," King said. "We want everyone's information. … The thicker the dictionary, the more words you're going to get right."

The masked man has struck again and his message is as clear as the apparatus he wears on his face: He is the reigning MVP and he will not relinquish that title without a fight.
That masked man, also known as Lebron James scored a career-high 61 points and led his Miami Heat team to an impressive 124-107 victory over the visiting Charlotte Bobcats on Monday night.
The fans in attendance were treated to a shooting clinic as James connected on 22 of the 33 shots he attempted, including 8 of 10 from beyond the arc. "It felt like I was throwing golf balls in the ocean," James said after the game.
With Dwayne Wade sitting out the contest it was to be expected that Lebron would pick up the slack but it seemed that he even surprised himself with the type of performance he delivered. James went into halftime with a total of 24 points and topped that with 25 more in the third quarter alone, giving him a total of 49 points going into the fourth.
With a 19 point lead going into the final period James found himself still on the floor with five minutes remaining. "I think what helped was we couldn't get no stops in the fourth quarter. That allowed me to stay in the game. ... I wanted to try to close it out and I was happy I was able to make a few plays to help us win the game."
The guy that the Heat had trouble stopping most of the night was center Al Jefferson, who's 38 points and 19 rebounds became an afterthought thanks to the heroics of the league MVP. The Bobcats just couldn't find a complement for Jefferson. He dominated on the low block but his teammates provided no spark on the offensive end.
Miami (43-14) is now in the midst of an eight-game winning streak and closing the gap on the division leading Indiana Pacers who are clinging to a two-game advantage on the defending champs.
The Bobcats lost all three games of their latest road trip by double digits while allowing over 100 points in each contest, something they have not done all season. They will now head home to face the aforementioned Pacers on Wednesday, who will be their fourth straight opponent with 40 or more wins this season.

Team GhostShell Hackers Leak 1.6 Million Accounts from US Federal Agencies, Interpol
Hacktivist group Team GhostShell claims to have leaked more than 1.6 million accounts belonging to federal institutions such as the FBI, NASA, the Pentagon, and Interpol.
The data was dumped in a PasteBin post entitled #ProjectWhiteFox – Freedom of Information. Promising more attacks by the end of the year, Team GhostShell says its agenda is to fight for freedom of information on the internet.
"#ProjectWhiteFox will conclude this year's series of attacks by promoting hacktivism worldwide and drawing attention to the freedom of information on the net," said Team GhostShell in the Pastebin post. "For those two factors we have prepared a juicy release of 1.6 million accounts/records from fields such as aerospace, nanotechnology, banking, law, education, government, military, all kinds of wacky companies & corporations working for the department of defense, airlines and more."
Although there's no indication that Team GhostShell is connected to Anonymous, they claim to be fighting for the same cause as they reference #OpWCIT (Operation World Conference on International Telecommunications) and claim to adhere to hacktivism.
In late August the hacker group also released one million account records belonging to the CIA, MIT, and Wall Street businesses as part of Project HellFire. At the time, they promised that "two more projects are still scheduled for this fall and winter". It remains to be seen if they'll stay on schedule and release a third leak by the end of the year.

Shane Lowry lifts the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational trophy at Firestone Country Club,
A delighted Shane Lowry won the WGC-Bridgestone Invitational with a bogey free final round -4 under par 66, to post a -11 under par total, which no one could catch.
Shane thought about lifting the trophy while sipping his morning coffee at Starbucks, he did not tee off until 2 pm;
"You just think about lifting that trophy on the 18th green."
Then when I'm in a good frame of mind, I let myself do it, and I give myself a little slap in the face and say, right, you need to get back to work, back to doing what you do best."
"It's fairly special to go out and do that and such a good feel to shoot a bogey-free 66 on the golf course like that."
"I know it will stay with me now for the rest of my career, and hopefully I've got a long career ahead of me."
He spoke about the pieces of luck that came his way today, definitely outrageous, in an Irish kind of way, first on the 10th and the second on the final hole.
For the 10th he said;
"I was quite lucky because I got a drop, and the drop actually took me back onto a little bit of an up-slope, which meant I could get the ball in the air quicker, and I could end up clearing the tree pretty comfortable."
And the 18th;
"I was just going in there praying that I could get it down there on the green."
" It actually had a pretty horrific lie. It was sitting down in a hole. It was almost like someone had stood on it, but it was where the crowd was walking."
""I was trying to get it on the front right of the green but pulled it a little bit, it went through the tree and the rest is history."
Both of these miraculous escapes ended in birdies !!!
In second place at -9 under par was Bubba Watson, he also carded a -4 under par 67 for his last round.
Jim Furyk and Justin Rose tied for third position, at -7 under par for the tournament.
Jim lamented his poor play for the last two day's;
"I'll go out and say, not only didn't I hit it well, I hit the ball very poorly the last 27 holes."
"I was covering up with putts early in the week. And under the gun, it got me a little worse on the weekend. We've got some work to do."
Justin blamed the putter for his bad day on the greens;
"I played half decent today, it's no problem."
"The early three putt made me tentative with the putter. Even around the turn, I had a great chance at number ten for birdie and three putted.
"I had a great chance at 11 and a great chance at 12."
"I did enough tee to green, but even the putter was under pressure on the tee to green play. So it just stems from that."

The European Parliament today gave the go-ahead to President José Manuel Barroso's new European Commission, confirming that John Dalli is the new man responsible for Directorate General Health and Social Affairs, and now also for the regulation of the medtech and pharmaceutical industries.
The vote heralds a new era for manufacturers of healthcare products, with all the uncertainty that entails, not least in an environment where the medtech industry has long been fighting against pressure for a more prescriptive regulatory approach.
But for many, it comes as a relief. There has been an eight-month hiatus in EU governance during what is the worst economic crisis in the living memory of most.
Eucomed reacts swiftly
Industry association, Eucomed, put out a statement immediately highlighting that building engagement with the new European Commission is a priority for the association to raise awareness and understanding of the sector.
John Wilkinson, chief executive of Eucomed, said: "A new Commission always brings new challenges for an association like ours as we need to work with many new people. At the same time, it is an opportunity to demonstrate the benefits that the medical technology industry brings to society. In that sense, the Exploratory Process will already help us considerably to raise awareness and to improve understanding of our sector."
Eucomed also emphasised that DG Trade, DG Industry and Entrepreneurship and DG Research, Innovation and Science would continue to be of importance to the medical technology industry.
"Our sector is one of the most innovative in Europe and contributes effectively to achieving their goals" said Mr Wilkinson.
Eucomed added that it is committed to supporting Dalli's underlying approach of "patients first", as this could be pursued in ways that do not strangle the SME-led industry or restrict its competitiveness.
Barroso's priorities
Mr Barroso said that the European Commission's priorities over the next five years will be: to help EU countries to put the economic crisis behind them; take the global lead on climate change; and make Europe more energy efficient. He also spoke of creating a "real economic union".
The European Parliament elected the new European Commission by 488 votes in favour, 137 against and 72 abstentions in Strasbourg on Tuesday. The vote was a single vote on the whole College of Commissioners, consisting of one Commissioner from each of the 27 EU member states.
EP gets foothold law-making
Additionally, members of the European Parliament today also voted strongly in favour of a set of principles governing future relations between the Commission and the European Parliament.
The resolution, the content of which is to be enshrined in a formal agreement later this year, strengthens parliament legislative initiative rights, enhances its role in international agreements and opens the door to it forcing the resignation of individual commissioners.

Beet Juice Lowers Blood Pressure »

No data are available in regard to overdosage in humans. However, daily doses of 900 mg for 8 weeks were well-tolerated. The most likely manifestations of overdosage are expected to be hypotension and tachycardia; bradycardia might also occur from overdose. Irbesartan is not removed by hemodialysis.
To obtain up-to-date information about the treatment of overdosage, a good resource is a certified regional Poison Control Center. Telephone numbers of certified Poison Control Centers are listed in the Physicians' Desk Reference (PDR). In managing overdose, consider the possibilities of multiple-drug interactions, drug-drug interactions, and unusual drug kinetics in the patient.
Laboratory determinations of serum levels of irbesartan are not widely available, and such determinations have, in any event, no known established role in the management of irbesartan overdose.
Acute oral toxicity studies with irbesartan in mice and rats indicated acute lethal doses were in excess of 2000 mg/kg, about 25-and 50-fold the MRHD (300 mg) on a mg/m² basis, respectively.

Murdoch Attacks Google, Obama On Twitter
The search giant responds to his SOPA tirade; Calls it nonsense.
Media mogul Rupert Murdoch, a man known for his high ethical standing, has accused Google of being a "piracy leader" soon after joining Twitter. The News Corporation honcho's tirade has been sparked by the recent SOPA (Stop Online Piracy Act). The outburst comes after recent developments that have put US lawmakers and those supporting the bill on the backfoot following public outcry.
For those who tuned in late, SOPA is an invasive US anti-piracy act bringing web content providers in the legal line of fire. It is feared that the law could potentially break the internet as we know it by restricting free speech and opening internet entities to legal intimidation. Murdoch's vocal support for the bill is clearly because News Corporation also owns the film studio 20th Century Fox. This is especially true as the SOPA legislation aims provide law enforcement with overarching powers to prosecute anyone vaguely suspected of supporting piracy.
The search giant isn't the only one in Murdoch's crosshairs. The media baron also accused US President Barack Obama of being in cahoots with his "Silicon Valley paymasters". This attack came soon after the White House expressed concerns over the anti-piracy laws. While Obama hasn't reacted to the accusation, Google has already dismissed Murdoch's Twitter remarks.
This is just nonsense", said a Google spokesperson in an email to CNET.com. The email clarified: "Last year we took down 5 million infringing Web pages from our search results and invested more than $60 million in the fight against bad ads...We fight pirates and counterfeiters every day".
Although Murdoch did an about-turn and called Google a "great company" through his subsequent tweets, it's clear that media houses are in favour of stripping the internet of its freedoms to uphold their interests. With the prospect of enforcing the SOPA act petering out, it seems ranting on the internet is all that SOPA supporters can do now.

When I started lessons my instructor taught me to squeeze and relax the reigns to slow the horse in trot. But now I've moved areas and the new instructor tells me to use the seat to steady him. How do I do that? I've tried squeezing my backside then relaxing but it doesn't make any difference. Any tips would be great!

I thought that in rising trot, YOU slow the rising down and slight pressure on the reins and when the horse slows relax the reins a little and you should both be in the same rhythm.

My instructress tells me the same as sdevereux to slow my rising and half halt (though cant explain half halt as still learning how to do one before telling others!). Though I think you should ask her what she means, I'm sure she will be pleased your asking and will think that your really interested in learning, then you can start to feel comfortable with asking her when your not sure. I get told off for not talking back and asking questions by my new instructress and its helped loads, and I'm now not feeling to stupid when I have no idea what she is talking about and I'm learning quicker. Goodluck x

i slow my rising-but (this sounds daft) not just in rising trot, in sitting i slow how my seat moves with him (if that makes sense) like slowing your rising and that alone slows shaky down-still working on doing it in canter!!i wouldnt worry-when i got shaky in had to ask the YO what each rug was (indoor/outdoor) coz i got a waxy indoor and it totally confused me!(just coz it feels like an outdoor!)

I agree with slowing your rising trot. Your horse will follow your lead and slow down. You can also do some quiet, very relaxed trot/walk transitions to get him anticipating the walk. That should slow him down a bit too.

Am I purposely trying to confuse you all by posting promos from two completely different but very similar sounding acts within a couple of days of each other? Maybe, but I was taken enough with the stripped down nature of Ryan Hope's Cocoon promo for Alpines that I decided to throw caution to the wind (or perhaps I just didn't realise till now?).

Setting the record for the most attended female sporting event in a single week is an accomplishment that the Coupe Rogers shares with no one; with almost 200,000 fans in attendance, it is a feat that shouldn't be overlooked. The Montreal version of the Canadian Masters is often regarded the as the fan favored event from the on in Toronto at the Rexall Center and it showed throughout the week.
Fans came out in droves to watch the likes of the Williams sisters, Maria Sharapova, and Victoria Azarenka, all which have been #1 in the world and have won multiple grand slams. But one can't forget the likes of Poland's Agnieszka Radwanska or Jelena Jankovic of Serbia who just so happens to be a former champion at the Coupe Rogers. And we can't forget about Canada's own Eugenie Bouchard; she's brought so much notoriety to tennis in Canada by reaching the semifinals in Australia and Paria along with an amazing run to the finals of Wimbledon. Fans were also treated to see the formerly retired Swiss Miss Martina Hingis in doubles; the tennis legend returned to the spotlight when she stormed to the title in Key Biscayne earlier this year. So from the looks of things, the city of Montreal would be in for some wonderful tennis, and that they were.
Watching a 34 year old Venus Williams duke it out with these young ladies is truly inspirational; she battled her way into the finals with four three set victories, one of which was against her top ranked sister Serena. And how amazing was that for the crowd at the Coupe Rogers? To not get Serena to play there in 14 years and to never get Venus there in her two decade long career, and when you finally get them both to show up, they collide in the semis in a tremendous match. It was a three set duel that could probably be considered their best match against each other; it was only their second time playing each other in five years and with the way the match went and the quality of it, the wait was totally worth it. Venus would, as Serena stated after the match, teach her younger sister a lesson and make her third final of 2014.
Radwanska would dazzle the crowd all throughout the week with her court craft and impeccable court coverage; making very few mistakes, she would find herself in the final against a spirited Venus. Although the final was an anti-climactic for the amazing week, it shouldn't go without saying how wonderfully Radwanska played; she was completely perfect in subduing Venus at the final hurdle and she deserves all the congratulations. It was her first title of 2014 and it was well deserved.
Next year, the Canadian Masters does it yearly switch and the women will head to the Rexall Center in Toronto while the men will strut their stuff at Stade Uniprix in Montreal. It can't go without notice how lucky Canada was to have been treated to such great tennis, not just Montreal; Roger Federer made an exciting push in Toronto as he lost in the finals to Joe-Wilfred Tsonga.
Things are on the up for Canada and I'm sure the great nation of the maple leaf can sit back and smile as the tennis world shifts to Cincinnati.

LOUISVILLE, KY.– Mack Trucks has introduced the newest generation of its Econodyne family, the MP8 Econodyne+, a powerful engine ideal for on-highway customers who require additional muscle to move their loads.
The 12.8-liter MP8 Econodyne+ is rated at 505 horsepower with as much as 1,860 pound-feet of torque when operating in either of the transmission's top two gears. This maximizes fuel efficiency while also providing the necessary power to help drivers climb long, steep grades.
Normal torque is 1,650 pounds-feet, explained Dave McKenna, director of powertrain sales and marketing. When a driver is applying full throttle while climbing a steep grade and the rpms drop to 1,300, Mack's intelligent torque management strategy, called EconoBoost, kicks in, providing the driver with an additional 200 pound-feet of torque. This enables him to stay in one of the higher gears until he crests the hill.
"Customers demanded greater power, and we delivered it with the advanced MP8 engine platform," McKenna said. "Mack customers working in mountainous areas requiring higher torque output can remain in top gear for longer, supplying more power and preserving fuel economy."
Mack's MP ClearTech engine series is composed of highly fuel-efficient and clean-running engines with near-zero emissions. The Econodyne+ engine is available in Pinnacle tractors and can be ordered now.

This Week - UCLA Plays Host To Miami
The No. 1 ranked UCLA men's tennis team will play host to the University of Miami, currently tied for No. 43 in the nation, in a midweek non-conference match this week. The Bruins will take the court against the Hurricanes at 1:30 p.m. on Wednesday, March 17 at the Los Angeles Tennis Center, located on the UCLA campus.
About This Week's Opponent - Miami The University of Miami is tied for the No. 43 slot in the latest edition of the national rankings released on March 9. The Hurricanes suffered two losses over the weekend, falling 5-2 to No. 26 Notre Dame and 6-1 to No. 17 Mississippi State, and now own a 6-5 overall record. None of Miami's players are listed in the national rankings for singles or doubles. UCLA leads the all-time series 8-0.
Last Week - Bruins Avenge Loss & Post Fourth Sweep
The No. 1 ranked UCLA men's tennis team avenged an earlier season loss Friday, defeating No. 13 Arizona State University 5-2 at the Los Angeles Tennis Center. The Bruins started things on the right note by claiming the doubles point with victories on court Nos. 2 and 3. ASU tied the score with the first singles match to finish as Tim Hammond handed Chris Sands a rare loss on court No. 6. The Bruins came right back with a win on court No. 2 where Zack Fleishman upset No. 44 Gustavo Marcaccio in straight sets. The Sun Devils again tied the match score as Ed Carter defeated Brandon Kramer in a second-set tiebreaker to give Kramer just his second loss of the dual season. The Bruins regained the lead when Jong-Min Lee avenged his loss to Matt Klinger in the last meeting, by posting a three-set victory on court No. 5. UCLA clinched the team win when Jason Cook defeated Alex Osterrieth on court No. 3. With the match already in hand, Jean-Noel Grinda added to the margin of victory with a win over Jeff Williams in the top-slot.
The Bruins then posted their fourth sweep of the season, not dropping a set enroute to the 7-0 victory over the University of Arizona on Saturday. The day started with the Bruins setting the tone by sweeping doubles play and singles action followed suit. Marcin Rozpedski was the first to finish as he did not drop a game to Brian Jackson on court No. 6 In the top-slot, Jean-Noel Grinda sailed to a 6-1, 6-0 win over Jean-Noel LaCoste. Jason Cook quickly followed suit with a 6-0, 6-2 win over Michel Stopa on court No. 3. The remaining three matches were closer, but UCLA still claimed straight-set victories. Zack Fleishman clinched the team win with a 6-4, 6-3 victory over Pascal Salasca in the No. 2 slot. On court No. 5, Chris Sands came back to win 6-4 in the first, then claimed the second 6-1 over Alex Brown. The final match to finish was court No. 4 where Lee rallied to win the first set 6-4, and battled to a 6-3 decision in the second for the win over Caleb Marquardt.
UCLA Player Notable Grinda & Sands Notch 20th Wins
With their victories on Saturday, UCLA sophomores Jean-Noel Grinda and Chris Sands became the second and third Bruins to reach the 20-win mark this season. Grinda is now 20-4 overall and 13-3 in dual matches, all in the No. 1 slot. Sands owns a 20-6 overall record and is 13-2 in dual matches playing in the No. 4-6 positions in the lineup.
Next Up Bruins' Long Homestand Continues After a break for exams, the Bruins continue the homestand hosting one of the most anticipated matches of the season on Friday, April 2 when rival No. 3 Stanford comes to the Los Angeles Tennis Center for a 1:30 match. The Bruins then host No. 22 Cal on Saturday, April 3 at Noon. Stepping out of conference action on Tuesday, April 6, UCLA will host No. 19 Texas A&M. The Bruins conclude the home portion of the schedule on April 9 and 10 hosting Pac-10 foes No. 69 Oregon and No. 9 Washington.

You don't need to scrape your knee to impress with a bandage dress. Caught on Jennifer Lopez recently after her husband officially filed for divorce, the bandage dress is a stunning wardrobe jewel. Bandage dresses hug the natural shape of your body with what looks like bandages wrapped around you. The look ends up being a sexy cross between a petrified mummy—a breathtaking one at that—and a fashion supermodel.
Herve Leger, back in the 1980s, introduced the bandage dress, but it has made a statement recently with high-power starlets donning the hip-hugging dresses. Bandage dresses are best worn by women who have and want to show off a well-toned figure. However, a well-structured bandage dress can be worn by any woman, provided she picks the right color (white exhibits, while black inhibits flaws!) and design for her specific shape. In fact, full-figured women can wear a bandage dress beautifully, as the elastic dress camouflages imperfect areas.
The bandage dress is known as a body con (body conscious) fashion piece. Paired with glamorous heels or gladiator flats and minimal jewelry (the bandage dress makes a statement in and of itself), the bandage dress will make your night fabulous!
You can get bandage dresses in many Chicagoland areas or online:

You've probably heard the term, "Snowpocalypse" by now. If you haven't, it's the tongue-in-cheek moniker given to the recent waves of arctic fronts that have moved through the country, specifically referring to the southern states.
Make fun if you must, but be aware that we Southerners are really not used to this kind of weather and are certainly not prepared to deal with it. We don't have snow tires or chains in the garage. We don't have thermal underwear, big coats, gloves, scarves, hats and boots on hand. So, it is a bit inconvenient when things like this happen, which is not very often.
And yes, many of us are whiners. When the temperature dips below 60F, we complain. When it gets down into the 20s, we freak out - especially if there's precipitation involved. Schools have been cancelled twice in my area now, but there are real reasons. Since we are not prepared for this weather, it is unsafe for buses to drive over icy overpasses and streets with their precious cargo. People who had to go into work witnessed first-hand the many accidents that occurred all over the area because the city doesn't have rock salt on hand, and drivers don't have snow tires or chains. Of course, if Houston drivers freak out when it sprinkles, just imagine what happens when it ices or snows!
To keep this article on the lighter side, may I proudly present Snowpocalypse 2014: Yes, we're wimps, but we're proud of it...and let's see YOU survive our summers! OK, that was a long name, but you get the picture. Click on the slideshow and take a look at these links:
Hopefully, now you understand how traumatic this is for us. Donations for disaster relief can be sent to the Governor of Texas.*

Will passage of HB 319 stop litigation between banks and condos or HOAs?
As many readers know, the controversial HB 319 including a provision "clarifying" the safe harbor statute passed in the Florida House on February 29 by a vote of 114 to 1. A companion bill SB 680 is now before the state senate but the Senate's version does not now include the Safe Harbor provision. Proponents of this safe harbor clarification is now lobbying to include it in the senate version.
If this new safe harbor provision is ultimately signed into law, what does it mean to community associations?
The safe harbor provision in this bill addresses two issues:
1. It requires unit owners, other than first mortgagees or their successors or assignees (as defined in the statute), pay for all unpaid assessments , including late fees, interest, costs, and reasonable attorney fees incurred by the association in an attempt to collect all such amounts; and
2. It clarifies (or limits, depending on your interpretation) the liability of first mortgagees or their successors or assignees as defined in the statute to the lesser of
a. Only the previous 12 months of unpaid assessments (and not the interest, late fees, attorneys fees and costs) or
b. One percent of the original mortgage debt.
By its vote, the House clearly thought that the safe harbor statute needed clarification. Banks are also suing associations, as a result of associations and collection companies demanding more than banks claim they owe. Although some cases have settled, an adverse appellate opinion could be very expensive for associations. Will the passage of this bill reduce that litigation?
It may, and then again, it may not. The impairment of contract issues discussed of late probably may come into play here, as well. "Enterprising" lawyers and associations may still claim that the statute will not apply to existing mortgages, if the Declaration provides any ammunition at all. That means that some may stick to their previous position in existing foreclosures, regardless of the statute change.
In short, attorneys and associations disagree on the interpretation of this statute, or whether the statute (existing or new) is even applicable. I hope that the passage of this bill will result in consistency. I'm just not sure it will.

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) - A Utah man pleaded guilty Tuesday to pulling off a bomb hoax at the Winter Olympics.
Fredrick Eugene Greghun, 23, pleaded guilty to a felony charge of using a telephone to make a threatening communication. Greghun was accused of leaving a phone message Feb. 18 with the Federal Aviation Administration warning that a Feb. 26 Delta Air Lines flight would crash into downtown Salt Lake City.
The message also claimed a train entering the city was carrying explosives.
Greghun admitted leaving the message knowing it was false, Assistant U.S. Attorney Michael P. Kennedy said.
U.S. District Court Judge Bruce Jenkins set sentencing for Sept. 23. Greghun could be sentenced up to 10 years in prison or could get probation.

CIA AGENT Nearing Death, Tells Truth about UFOs
CIA AGENT Spills Guts about Aliens and UFO's – "THEY'RE REAL!"
With all due respect and admiration for coming forward with 'the truth' at this point in Mr. (secret) life. Or end of life. I have a sense that what he says may be authentic. He seems unlikely a candidate for ego-centric BS aimed at becoming a celebrity or making a financial windfall from this earth shaking news. In Fact, he seems quite comfortable with his fate. As comfy as anyone can get when facing one's own mortality and going head to head with a government agency hell bent on hiding anything about UFO's and ET's. I would love to browse his secret briefcase though.

Surprise, Bad Food Causes Heart Attacks!
A new study by McMaster University claims people eating a diet rich in meat and junk food are MORE likely to have heart attacks than people eating mostly fruits and vegetables.
The research appears in the journal Circulation. Reuters reports:
People who ate more fruits and vegetables had a 30 percent lower risk of heart attack compared to people who ate little or none of these foods, they found.
People eating a Western diet had a 35 percent greater risk of heart attack compared to people who consumed little or no fried foods and meat.
Not a shocker! The link between saturated fat and heart attack is WIDELY accepted. Luckily a PLANT-based diet has been shown to prevent and reserve heart disease.
But this guy had to learn the hard way. His butter-based diet nearly killed him!

College Hockey:Parker, York Share Boston Sports Honor (Updated)
BOSTON — Arguably the decade's most successful sports town recognized two of college hockey's most successful coaches Wednesday night. Boston College's Jerry York and Boston University's Jack Parker were honored with the Special Achievement Award at this year's Tradition, a fundraising who's-who of Boston sports that benefits the New England Sports Museum.
"We were up at Clarkson in the early 70′s, Jack was an assistant at BU and I was an assistant at Clarkson," reminisced York. "We were talking, and saying geez, [former BC coach] Len Ceglarski and [BU counterpart] Jack Kelley have been doing this thing for a long time. We never thought at that point, Jack, [that we'd be here]."
"I know when I got the job at BU, Jack Kelley — who was my former coach — called me up and said congratulations. And I said, 'I'll tell you one thing, I'll never be in this job as long as you were.' He was at BU for ten years," concurred Parker to a laugh from the audience.
York and Parker, the only two active college hockey coaches with more than 800 wins, joined the Tradition's eighth annual class of honorees that included former Boston Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling and former New England Patriots player Troy Brown (Lifetime Achievement Awards), local Olympic medalist Nancy Kerrigan (Figure Skating Legacy Award), former Boston Celtic Sam Jones (Basketball Legacy Award) and former Boston Bruins legend Ken Hodge Sr. (Hockey Achievement Award).
"Being inducted with Jerry is quite a tribute for us, and to kinda elevate college hockey in this town, it's nice," reflected Parker, "but to be on the same stage with the other people who were here tonight — not just the other recipients, but the other presenters — Milt Shmidt, Bill Russell, Bill Belichick, is quite a thrill for me. I'm a fan. I'm a season ticket-holder for the Red Sox, but as a kid I was really a Celtics fan more than anything else. Bill Russell is, to this day, my favorite athlete of all time."
So closely connected on a professional level, the local coaching legends also spoke of a personal relationship beyond the microphones and cameras.
"We'll see each other occasionally," said York. "He gets involved in all sorts of sailing, and I'm into golf, so we'll occasionally have lunch together. We're good friends, who just happen to be great rivals."
Parker assessed the comparisons as equally inevitable and complimentary.
"I think it's probably the only reason they [induct us] now, because we won back-to-back [national titles] and we've both had long careers, and very similar types of careers. It would've been hard to have one of us without the other. They probably wouldn't have had one of us without the other," he grinned.

Roar if you're ready for the VMAs!
Katy Perry is on her way to the 2013 Video Music Awards, ready to close Sunday night's show after performers like Lady Gaga, Miley Cyrus and Robin Thicke have graced the stage. And of course, she has to do it in style.
The Prism singer revealed her blinged-out microphone for her VMA performance on Instagram Friday (August 23) night. It's all-gold — much like her giant metallic semi — and brass-knuckled, with bold, cherry-red letters spelling out "ROAR" on each ring. Here's to hoping Perry won't knock anyone out!
Bedazzled mics aren't new to Katy. Remember her shiny rainbow mic or her American flag jewels on her Obama rally mic?
Fans, who recently unlocked lyrics to two Katy songs, gushed over the prop, with one fan tweeting, "I dare you to punch me with that new mic yew got."
"This sounds like a set up," Katy responded.
This sounds like a set up. "@Katycatfurlife: @katyperry I dare you to punch me with that new mic yew got"
— Katy Perry (@katyperry) August 24, 2013
"@katyperry THAT IS THE MOST DOPE MIC EVA. #ROAR baby ROAR! #NOSLEEPTILLBROOKLYN," kirstenstucki said.
"SO EXCITED for ur performance & ur mic is EVERYTHING !! That's one of the coolest mics i've ever seen <3 xxx," yasminR_xx said.

EA Sports takes goaltending to the future on next-gen consoles.
EA Sports' upcoming soccer-sim "FIFA 15" will feature a completely revamped goaltending engine, the game's developer said today on their official website.
According to EA Sports, there will be over 50 new save animations, improved AI and a new character model for goaltenders in the next-generation versions of "FIFA 15."
"Our Next Gen goalkeepers are more responsive and fluid when they move and look and think like real-life keepers," EA Sports said today on their official site.
Next-gen goalies will also have improved reactions and make better decisions on the pitch, able to make last ditch saves and will catch the ball less and deflect it more, just like their real-life counterparts. In the next-gen versions of "FIFA 15," goalies will also be able to track the flight of the shots hit towards them.
EA Sports also said that goalies in "FIFA 15" will also be more difficult to score on in one-on-one situations and will gauge cross-shots and corner kicks better. With smarter goaltenders that are more agile around their crease, will come more ways to score as well. According to EA Sports, opponents will recognize where your goalie is and will try to take quicker shots to take advantage of your goalie's position.
There was no news on any upgrades to the goaltending engine for the XBox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions of the game.
"FIFA 15" is set for a September release on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, Xbox One and PlayStation 3.
What do you think of the new goalie gameplay additions? Will it influence you enough to purchase the game? Sound off in the comments section below.

what do I eat after clear liquid diet?
|Watch this
|View More Posts Ignore
Just out of hospital friday. Had been to the hospital 9 days before for pain and constipation. At that time they saw some diverticulosis which I knew about from a colonoscopy 2 years ago. X rays confrimed a lot of stool in the intestine both ER visits. Since no relief came from meds they decided to do an ennema. I'd never had one before. They ended up doing 3 ennema's because I was only passing very loose stool. Iwas passing out and my blood pressure was dropping, I was cold and shaking out of control. They did a scan with radio active die and concluded I had diverticulitis. They sent me home with a few antibiotics and a clear liquid diet to follow.
So now I'v e been reading your posts and see about a soft diet after the liquid diet. What is that? Should I follow that? I'm unsure and so worried about the cramping and constipation returning. Oh ya I still have only loose stool. Feel like I need to go and can't.

I'm really glad to hear about the support. I've been newly diagnosed (as of the 15th of last month), and I've never been soo concerned about going to the bathroom. I had the abdominal pain that I dismissed for gas pain, and as the days went by and the pain increased, I decided to have my husband take me to the hospital. I was told very bluntly that I have holes in my colon and that I would need to be admitted. I was informed that I may not need surgery, but one was there on standby (just in case). I stayed there for 5 days, received only antibiotics, then on the 4th day got to get clear liquids, then I was able to leave the following day. The doctor told me.."this is a disease that you're going to have for the rest of your life" and my heart started beating I was soo scared.. All he told me was that I needed to stay away from (seeds)?? Currently I have no food restrictions (as per my doctor), but I'm soo scared that I'm still using the SOFT (LOW FIBER) diet menus that I used when I was admitted,and I make sure to drink lots of water. I was soo frantic yeterday cause I really didn't have a great (movement) but I guess that will forever be my concern.
If anyone could elaborate more on the seeds (as I only know of popcorn) that would be very helpful.
Thanks in advance!

My Gastro Dr. told me to stay on low residue diet for 4 weeks, to allow healing. I need to have a colonoscopy in 3 weeks. Get more answers then. Until then I eat the diet I'm told to follow. I also use the bathroom about every 2-3 hours and suffer stomach cramps most times.
I don't know anything about the sugar thing people are discussing.
Good luck. Hope your health improves.
