Paul McCartney played his first show at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles since 1966 Sunday and made references to that show during his concert, according to Randy Dry, who was there.
"Paul acknowledged that there were some people in the audience who had attended his last Dodger Stadium concert in 1966, and asked them to scream like they did then, which they did. Some of the fans carried signs displaying facsimiles of their original KRLA tickets," he said.
The Los Angeles crowd was treated to three hours of music both old and new. "The pre-show video, which featured more of Paul's original artwork and paintings this time around, wrapped up around 8:35 p.m. and the crowd cheered wildly as Paul took the stage wearing a blue suit jacket, white shirt with black fabric down the front and next to each shoulder, black jeans and matching Beatle boots. With Hofner bass in hand, Paul launched into 'Eight Days A Week' and proceeded to rock until the show ended around 11:20 p.m.," Dry said.
"His vocals were a bit rough in the early going, but his bass playing was superb, especially on 'Mr. Kite.' Both encores rocked particularly hard, especially 'Hi Hi Hi' and 'Helter Skelter.' During 'Live and Let Die,' fireworks and flames shot into the sky, sending smoke wafting above the scoreboard.
"One of the night's few surprises came toward the end of the first encore. Paul paused before 'I Saw Her Standing There' to bring up a mother and daughter on stage. Both had been carrying signs that caught his eye. The mother's sign said 'You signed my daughter's "RAM" tattoo' and the daughter's said 'Will you be my mom's first tattoo?' Paul happily obliged and signed his name on the mother's forearm, above the wrist, to the crowd's delight."
Dry saw Joe Walsh and wife Marjorie Bach in attendance. Some of the merchandise items he saw included a grey/black T-shirt with vintage Wings logo on the front and the band's 1976 US tour dates on the back ($45); an Out There lunchbox ($40) and water bottle ($30); and a canvas tote bag adorned with a pattern that looked like Paul's psychedelic piano ($65).
The next stop on the Out There tour is Tuesday. He'll play US Airways Center in Phoenix, Ariz.. After that, it'll be the long-awaited Farewell to Candlestick show Thursday in San Francisco.
Here's the complete official set list for this show as reported by Paul McCartney's press office: (with changes from Salt Lake City in bold): "Eight Days a Week," "Save Us," "All My Loving," "Listen to What the Man Said," "Let Me Roll It," "Paperback Writer," "My Valentine," "Nineteen Hundred and Eighty Five," "The Long and Winding Road," "Maybe I'm Amazed," "I've Just Seen a Face," "We Can Work It Out," "Another Day," "And I Love Her."
Next, there was "Blackbird," "Here Today," "NEW," "Queenie Eye," "Lady Madonna," "All Together Now," "Lovely Rita," "Everybody Out There," "Eleanor Rigby," and "Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite."
Finally, there was "Something," "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da," "Band on the Run," "Back in the U.S.S.R.," "Let It Be," "Live and Let Die," "Hey Jude." Encore: "Day Tripper," "Hi Hi Hi," "I Saw Her Standing There" (replaced "Get Back"). Encore 2: "Yesterday," "Helter Skelter," "Golden Slumbers"/"Carry That Weight"/"The End."

Reviews for Grilled Spiced Fish
"Easy and delicious!! And I am not a huge fan of fish but this was excellent!"
"Delicious. Just the right amount of spice to suit my family."
"Super! i even used Tilapia with fantastic results! I will be making this alot this summer!"
"OMG, this is so good and soooo easy to make. I broiled instead of grilled and it turned out really really good. This would be over the top if grilled (instead of broiled). Will definitely be making again many times this summer, on the grill next time (s). Spicy but not too spicy at all. I might substitute smoked paprika at least for some of the paprika next time."
"Excellent! I have never made fish directly on the grill. The oil worked well on the grill - fish started to stick in just a couple spots, use a large spatula to gently loosen and then flip fillets over. I didn't have white pepper, so i just added a few grinds of black pepper, was not too spicy at all. Husband agreed that this is definitely a keeper recipe. Served with salad and a rice side dish. YUM!"

The number of times you have to roll a set of 3 die to see a 6 on each die appears to be around ~10.555 according to a implementation of this in c++ and c#. How would this be statistically proven as instinct would suggest it should be 6 ?
Each die has 6 sides that are evenly distributed. All three die are thrown at the same time counting as one roll. Once all three die have displayed 6 at least once you can stop.
What I am looking for is the statistical proof that you are required on average to roll the set 10.555 times to have seen 6 on each of the 3 die at least once.
Many Thanks

The career of Glen Krupica has come full circle, as the 1982 Northern Illinois graduate enters his third year as a member of the Huskie senior staff. He joined the program as an Associate Athletics Director in July of 2005 and was promoted to Senior Associate Athletics Director for External Affairs in August of 2006.
Prior to his return to DeKalb, Krupica spent the previous 11 years (1994-2005) as the Executive Director of the Independence Bowl Foundation in Shreveport, Louisiana. While there, Krupica secured two title sponsors, negotiated two contract extensions with ESPN and brokered deals and renewals with both the SEC and Big 12 Conferences. Team payouts grew from the minimum $250,000 per team to over $1.2 million per team during Krupica's tenure. For his efforts, Krupica earned the 2000 Bud Dudley Bowl Executive Award from the All-America Football Foundation.
Krupica made the move to the bowl circuit after serving as Northwestern State University's Assistant Athletics Director for Fundraising and Marketing from 1992-94. During his time in Natchitoches, La., Krupica helped increase annual fund raising by 40%, secured program's first major gifts, headed the Scholarship Auction and originated the Greater Demon Purple Pigskin Pitchfork Party.
Before coming to Louisiana, Krupica lived in Mission, Kansas for a little over five years, working as the Director of Development for the Kansas Special Olympics from 1987-1992. He was the key cog in establishing the six-figure fund-raiser "Celebrity Sports Carnival" and regional efforts throughout. Krupica was key in turning the organization around financially.
Upon earning his Masters Degree from The Ohio State University in 1984, Krupica returned to DeKalb in 1985 as the Executive Director of the Huskie Club. He helped coordinate the first "team concept" fund drives and started both the Chicago and Rockford chapters of the Huskie Club.
Krupica, a member of NACDA (National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics) and a native of Franklin Park, Ill., is married to Suzanne and they have two daughters, Katie (12) and Lauren (9).

We (6 friends from Germany) had an awesome time in Prague and we enjoyed every minute of our stay in the Rustic Family Apartment.
It was super clean, well designed and was perfect for us. The affordable price made it possible for us to experience the beauty of Prague and to get to know the Czech Republic.
The staff was super nice to us and answered all of our questions professionally.
It was a pleasure Robert.
We want to thank Royal Ballezza Apartments for providing the best service, great apartments with a good location and affordable prices.
This makes it possible for young people like us to see the world.
I highly recommend it.
Thank you for everything.
The Germans (43)
We had a really great time there. Beautiful and clean apartment, friendly staff. Overall a great experience.
Spędziliśmy bardzo miło święta Bożego Narodzenia .Była to zasługa pięknej zabytkowej Pragi ale również apartamentu w którym mieszkaliśmy 4 dni.Urządzony ze smakiem , przestronny i położony w bliskim sąsiedztwie Starego Miasta jest absolutnie godny polecenia.Jedyny drobiazg to zbyt mała ilość szkła(do piwa wina) i talerzy.Obsługa i gospodyni bardzo uczynni i mili.Pozdrawiamy z Polski.
The apartment was very clean, service was very quality, it was very close to the center of the city and also closed to the tram lines. The staff was very kindly and friendly, especially I would like to thank Alisher for his services and for his helps. And also thakns to all facility members, it was a lovely stay for us.
The apartment was bigger than i expected, we were 7 and we han no problems with the space.
Internet connection was good and the subway station is very close to the apartment.
I will definitely raccomend it.
Very good hotel !
Unfortunately we couldn't stay at the apartment we booked, due to a technical problem.
The staff however has been really gentle, polite and available: they gifted us with a bottle of wine and replaced our accomodation with a hotel room (Royal Court just a few minutes walk away). That was the same franchise.
24h reception, staff young, available and perfect english speaking. The room was amazing and comfortable.
Nearby underground station and a Vegeterian restaurant (for veg friends like us :) )
Good location, clean room although compact. Good selection at breakfast as well - set us up for the day!
I was so impressed with this sweet little hotel.
The room was very clean. I was happy with the clean bathroom and comfortable bed. (you have to pay if you want clean towels every day, 5€ extra I think)
What I love most about our stay was the perfect breakfast, which was included in the price. Please, never change your breakfast buffet. Only the breakfast would be a reason for me to go back to Prague lol.
What I also want to mention is that the staff working there was extremely nice and friendly.
I'd definitely come back to this place since all I can say about it is very positive.
Nice and clean rooms, well located and very friendly staff.
Thank you very much for the perfect hospitality.

whats weird about this though is michael nor his brother play a v2 live. When I saw them on the black tyrany tour they both played RM100 modular heads. what modules? hell if i know, but i doubt that they are stock. theyre tone right now is very EL34 colored though. i imagine they could be using any of the marshall inspired modules or maybe even the bogner ecstacy module. still very nice tone, whatever theyre using. as for as tthe tones on ROTT, michael's tone kinda sucks...which is really too bad because i have always loved his tone. i read it some where and in one of the in studio videos he used a Randall V2 and ENGL Blackmore/Savage and an ESP Eclipse loaded with EMG 81/81. totaly not the warm full bodied tone he is known for. as far as chris, sounded like the same stuff he was using prior to his departure: dellinger-CA and Peavey JSX

Susanne Atanus is a Republican candidate who won the Republican nomination to challenge Rep. Jan Schakowsky – an extremely left-wing, Democratic politician – in Illinois' 9th Congressional District in the Chicago area, according to a Huffington Post report on Wednesday, and Atanus allegedly won the primary on Tuesday with Schakowsky's supporters' help - according to Patheos.
Gov. Pat Quinn makes Illinois' temporary 67% income tax increase a permanent tax
Illinois Governor's Race: Bruce Rauner - who's out of touch - or Pat Quinn - who's out to lunch
What better way for an Illinois Democrat to get re-elected in the times of Obamacare than to have an unelectable candidate running against her. Word is that this is how this happened. Susanne Atanus of Niles is reportedly unelectable in the midterm elections due to her unpopular, extremely over-the-top beliefs which she asserts while basically clinging to her Bible.
For starters, Atanus – who received 54 percent of the vote on Tuesday over David Earl Williams III – believes that God dictates what happens weather-wise. She believes that tornadoes are punishments from God for the United States permitting marriage equality and abortion. Furthermore, she believes dementia and autism are also God's punishments for society. No, this is not made up. She has actually made such statements to reporters of publications in the recent past.
Asserting that mental disorders and natural disasters are due to the advancements of legal abortions and gay rights, she has said, "God is angry. We are provoking Him with abortions and same-sex marriage and civil unions. Same-sex activity is going to increase AIDS. If it's in our military, it will weaken our military. We need to respect God."
Atanus' comments have been condemned by leaders in the Republican Party, including Jack Dorgan – the Chairman of the Illinois Republican Party – and Adam Robinson – the Chairman of the Chicago Republican Party. While her victory in Tuesday's primary election may seem impossible, it is less baffling when one considers that the alleged push for Atanus' victory came from the person who will undoubtedly defeat her easily in November.
It is safe to assume that Atanus is not of the mindset that most Republicans would want to represent them in Congress. If Republicans actually voted for her, her over-the-top beliefs were likely not widely known by the voters. If Rep. Schakowski put her supporters up to voting for her in the primary so she would dodge a strong candidate in November, she ought to be considered unelectable, too.
The question is: How did Atanus end up on the ballot in the first place? It appears to be another horrendous case of Chicago (area) politics at its worst.

Giving up will NOT get you a job
Jobs in Houston right now!
Giving up will NOT get you a job
James - "You come to our rescue, again!" Thanks.
I think the biggest hassle now is training for those jobs. There are too many people thinking that they will find something in the same field they just got laid off in, instead of training for a new career. Houston schools should be packed to the brim: colleges, universities, vocational, etc.
People should DO something with their "down time" in between searching!
When you see the breakdown of these numbers, it makes me think people aren't trying hard enough. The same is probably true for most cities in the U.S.: the jobs really ARE there...people have just stopped looking.
I am new here, in Houston, but I realize many things since I move from Europe on 2008, and I can tell,- I gave up! It is impossible to get a job here. And those numbers of jobs available- who knows what is behind them? Recruiters do not answer on emails... there is NEVER any response from employers. It is a stress to call to recruiters, because in reality my calls irritates them....my calls are not welcome...
James, this is false hope. There is a percent of these that are "scams" from recruiting companies that want your entry fee, but can't actually find you a job. There is also a larger percent that require more education than most applicants do not have, i.e. Nursing, Teaching, Engineering, etc.
I agree with Inga. Until we get the current administration out of office, we are going to be faced with very high unemployment rates, declining business, higher taxes and a soon-to-be Healthcare program that will cause revolution.
Elizabeth Marie - Fort Bend Conservative Examiner
There are still a lot of jobs in San Antonio too...
I enjoyed and agreed with your article. I'm attempting a career change at age 55, and the field I'm interested in (CAD Drafter), it's hard to find entry level work. So, I'm looking for work in my previous career (sales) until job market improves. There are sales jobs out there, just have to be persistent. I may have to take a job I'm not thrilled about just to have a paycheck. It's all about holding on until things get better, and you HAVE TO BELIEVE that things WILL get better!

Lord of the Messy Manger - A Christmas reminder...
Wednesday, December 11, 2013
This was posted in a blog by LHLADY517, and was such a blessing that I had to share! Thank you LHLADY517, and Dr. Ralph F. Wilson, for these words of wisdom and a reminder that God can use me even if I am overwhelmed, disorganized, etc, etc.
The Christmas story is usually told in such a way that it seems like Jesus was born into a clean and peaceful scene, but really, if you think about the manger and what it must have been like for Mary and Joseph, it was probably anything but - dark and dank, with animals milling about... wow! God chose to come to earth in the lowliest of places, in a place that lacked warmth, comfort or peace. Because He loved us.
I truly hope this will touch you if you happen to stop by to read it.
Merry Christmas!
by Dr. Ralph F. Wilson
If you think your life is an utter disaster, that God could never use a life as messed up as yours, think again. Let me point you to some familiar Bible stories.
Joseph's brothers hate him so much that they sell him as a slave and make their father believe he has been devoured by animals, but "but God meant it for good" to save thousands from starvation.1
Sampson lusts after a Philistine girl -- not the nice Jewish girl his parents wanted for him. But the Bible says, "his father and mother did not know that this was from the Lord."2
King Solomon's son makes a disastrous decision that loses him half the kingdom. What a mess! But God says, "This thing is from me."3
Jacob is a liar and a cheat and has to flee for his life. He sleeps out in the open with only a rock for a pillow. But when he wakes with a vision of angels, he says, "Surely the Lord is in this place, and I did not know it."4
Your life may appear well-ordered on the surface, but underneath there may be disarray. Brokenness, pain, shame. Things you seem utterly incapable of fixing.
The good news, my friend, is that God is bigger than your messy life. He is not impotent. He is not confined by your boundaries. He is God! And he is unafraid of working in messy situations. In fact, he gets a kick out of surprising us with his amazing grace.
What are your points of pain? What is the mess that you are struggling with? Maybe, just maybe, God is able to take your mess, and out of it bring blessing.
"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." (Romans 8:28)
How bad can it get? A girl gets pregnant. Her parents are utterly shamed. Her fianc� -- not the father -- is ready to dump her. And then he is told, "Do not fear to take Mary as your wife, for that which is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit."5
How bad can it get? The girl is in labor, far from home with only a cave-barn where she can lie down and have her baby. The only place to put her newborn is a manger. A cattle trough. We imagine it with fresh, fragrant straw plucked from a bale of hay. But I doubt that the cave was stocked with neat bales stacked against the wall. The straw that night was neither fresh nor fragrant. Life was a mess -- but God was in it.
God sees Mary with her tiny infant and sends a host of angels to announce the birth.
"Behold, I bring you good news of great joy
that will be for all the people.
For unto you is born this day
in the city of David
a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.
And this will be a sign for you:
you will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloths
and lying in a manger."6
The messy manger is itself a sign from God. Is your life a mess? Then let this be a sign to you.
Your very good news is that the God of the messy manger, the resurrected Christ of the cruel cross, and the Holy Spirit, in whom you live and move and have your being, are able to break through in your life, begin to clean up your mess, bless you too. And that -- like the messy manger -- will be a wonder all its own.

A Survivor 1950 Coupe DeVille
We've found a real treat for you Cadillac fans this week. When you hear the word "survivor", an American luxury car from the early 50's isn't the first thing that comes to mind. Seeing a car in it's original form is a treat but having the opportunity to own something that's avoided all tampering is incredibly unique. Found on eBay Motors from a seller in Ft. Lauderdale, this Caddy looks impressive:
The seller states the following:
This is a 1950 Cadillac Coupe DeVille, all original survivor, rust free with all books and records. Car has 68,999 miles.
Included in the ad is a video which shows the car running, the original owner's manual/paperwork in the trunk, and a virtual tour brought to you by a very excited seller. A photo is worth a thousand words and this listing has quite a few. If you're in the market for an old Cadillac, this may be the car. If not, the seller may have something for you in his inventory. For the full listing of this Coupe DeVille, with all photos, click here.
Cadillac month continues, and we'll be profiling a different model next week. In the meantime, for more information about these and other classic cars, check out our mobile apps for your iPhone, iPad, or Android device.

Get your dance on with shag lessons
Published: Tuesday, July 23, 2013 at 2:25 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, July 23, 2013 at 2:25 p.m.
When people think about dancing at weddings or other similar events, the word shag comes up a lot, said Verna Jordan, owner of Ballroom DanceSport in Wilmington.

Where: Ramada Inn, 5001 Market St., Wilmington
Cost: $6, includes all lessons and dancing
Contact: Lea Pearson, 619-4110
"Also, people call and ask for shag lessons because they've heard it's the dance of the area," Jordan said.
The shag dance is thought to have developed during the 1930s and '40s, and there's a bit of a historical dispute about where exactly along the coasts of North Carolina and South Carolina the phenomenon was born. More important, perhaps, for those considering lessons is the definition. According to a MyReporter.com answer on the subject, "Choreographers describe classic shag as a slotted swing dance (the couples tend to move forward and back in a set territory or 'slot'). Considerable footwork and improvisation is involved."
Several venues provide shag lessons, including Ballroom DanceSport, Babs McDance Social Dance Studio and Carolina Lounge at Ramada Inn.
Part of the beauty of the dance, Jordan said, is that "you can dance shag to just about anything." She added, "They're great for weddings and any time you hear peppy, upbeat music."
After learning the basic steps, a student's confidence level goes up, Jordan said, and the more complicated-looking turns don't look quite so complicated.
"It's a very smooth dance, unlike swing, where there's more up-and-down motion to it," she said.

More Americans Evade Pirates
But this time, the would-be captors were using heavy artillery.
Another American cargo ship laden with food and aid supplies headed for Africa was attacked by brigands last night, but it managed to escape by using evasive maneuvers. The Liberty Sun was damaged when would-be captors fired bullets and small rockets into its hull, but no crew members were injured. [NYT]

Ask your butcher to remove the bone and every bit of fat. The meat is
protected from drying out by the mustard-herb crust.
Serves 8 to 10
Prep time: 45 minutes, at least a day before roasting
Cooking time: 2 to 3 hours, depending on whether lamb is rare, medium or well done
1 boned leg of lamb, around 7 to
8 pounds
¼ to 1/3 cup Dijon mustard
6 garlic cloves, coarsely chopped
3 cups fine plain bread crumbs
4 tablespoons fresh rosemary
4 tablespoons fresh thyme
4 tablespoons flat-leaf parsley
2 tablespoons grated lemon peel
½ cup olive oil
¾ teaspoon coarse sea salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1. A day or two before cooking, trim any remaining fat away from the leg of lamb, and wipe dry with paper towels.
2. Put the remaining ingredients in the bowl of a food processor. Process until thoroughly blended.
3. Place the lamb on a large, clean work surface, skin side down. Using your hands, press about half the crumb mixture onto the surface of the lamb. Roll and tie the lamb with string, like a parcel. Press the rest of the crumb mixture around the lamb. Wrap the lamb in foil and refrigerate overnight.
4. Bring the lamb to room temperature.
Preheat the oven to 450°. Place the lamb on a rack in a roasting pan. Roast for 30 minutes.
5. Reduce the oven temperature to 350°, and continue to cook for 25 minutes per pound for rare, 30 for medium-rare, 35 minutes for well done. (Place a tent of foil over the lamb if the outside is browning too quickly.) Test the temperature by inserting a meat thermometer into the center of the roast. Remove the lamb from the pan, and let it rest for 10 to 15 minutes. Remove string and slice.
A true carbonara has as many as five eggs, a half pound of pancetta and
6 tablespoons of butter. This recipe trims the fat from the pancetta, uses only olive oil and just two eggs.
Serves 4
Prep time: 15 minutes
Cooking time: 15 minutes
1 pound spaghetti
¼ pound pancetta or lean slab bacon
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 garlic cloves, peeled and crushed
2 large eggs
Salt and freshly ground pepper
½ cup freshly grated pecorino or
Parmesan cheese, plus more for
passing around at the table
1. Bring a large pot of salted water to boil for the spaghetti.
2. Chop the pancetta into small cubes, trimming as much fat as you can. Heat the oil in a skillet, and sauté the pancetta with the garlic until it is golden. Remove the garlic, and discard. Keep the pancetta warm.
3. Break the eggs into a bowl large enough to hold the spaghetti. Beat and season with pepper and salt.
4. Cook the spaghetti until al dente, 9 to 10 minutes. Reserve half a cup of cooking liquid. Drain, and add the hot spaghetti to the egg mixture. (The pasta should be hot when you toss it with the eggs, so the heat will cook them.) Toss well, add the pancetta and grated cheese, and toss some more. Add a little hot cooking liquid if the sauce needs thinning. Season with plenty of pepper, and add salt if necessary.

We're live at the Dunkin' Donuts Center in Providence, Rhode Island for CES MMA "Real Pain." Dave Bautista makes his MMA debut as he takes on Vince Lucero in a heavyweight main event.
Stay tuned all night for live results.
First up is Tyson Chartier vs. Kevin Horowitz
Referee Dan Miragliotta starts the action as both guys come out with a feeling-out process. Chartier shoots for a single that Horowitz is defending. After a couple minutes of grappling, the fight is back standing with neither getting the better of the groundwork. Horowitz pushes Chartier up against the cage and lands several good shots that connect. Chartier fights back to his feet but remains pressed against the cage. Horowitz steps back creating some space and lands a few combos. With thirty seconds left in the round, Chartier lands a good shot that looks to stun Horowitz. The round ends with both fighters having landed some decent shots in the round.
Competitive round that I'm going to give to Horowitz.
Second round stats with Chartier looking for a single but finds himself pressed up against the cage again. Both fighters are exchanging punches with both guys landing. Charter throws a back spinning wheel-kick that lands and draws some oooohs and ahhhhs from the crowd. Horowitz lands a takedown and finds himself working some ground and pound from Chartier's guard. The round comes to a close with Horowitz landing some ground and pound.
Another close round that I'm giving to Horowitz based off the way he finished the round.
The final round begins with Chartier's corner man Mark DellaGrotte yelling for Chartier to put him out. Both fighters are exchanging and Chartier continues to land some good shots. Horowitz just keeps eating them and pressing forward. An exchange against the cage finds Chartier trying and failing to get Horowitz's back before the position is reversed and Horowitz lands in Chartier's half-guard. With the round coming to a close, Chartier tries for a choke, but ends up on the bottom of a north-south position.
I'm giving this round to Chartier. Good fight, close fight, but I think Horowitz takes it.
Judges give us a unanimous decision for Horowitz (30-27, 30-27, 30-27).
Nate Andrews vs. Leon Davis
The fight begins with Davis charging right in and landing a big takedown. Andrews fights through it and gets the fight back standing but Davis lands another big takedown that gets him into side control. Some nice grappling finds Davis controlling the back and looking for a choke. Andrews defends but Davis finds himself in a dominant position and lands some big shots. The fight is back standing but Davis is again looking for a takedown and again gets it.
Easy round to give to Davis.
Round two begins and Davis immediately goes for the shot again. This time Andrews is ready for it and locks in a front choke that leads to a quick tap from Davis. Nice finish.
Nate Andrews wins via submission.
Andre Soukhamthath vs. Rob Costa
Crowd favorite Andre Soukhamthath gets the biggest pop of the night so far during introductions. The fight starts with both fighters trading shots. Costa lands a nice straight right that Soukhamthath brushes off. Soukhamthath presses his opponent against the cage and they exchange knees. Some loud leg'kicks get the crowd going and Soukhamthath lands a nice takedown. Soukhamthath spends the rest of the round in Costa's guard and lands a few shots but nothing too damaging.
I'm giving round one to Soukhamthath.
Round two opens up with Soukhamthath landing some more leg kicks. Costa shoots for and lands a double but Soukhamthath quickly returns to his feet and lands a nice trip of his own. Soukhamthath looks to be trying for an Americana from top control. He gives it up and instead lands some elbows and fists. Costa doesn't seem to have any answer for the ground and pound of Soukhamthath. The ref temporarily stops the action to have a cut on Costa's head examined. The doctor steps in and says no more.
Andre Soukhamthath wins via TKO (doctor's stoppage)
Shedrock Goodridge vs. Brennan Ward
First round begins with Goodridge looking for and landing a takedown and quickly looking to take Ward's back. Some scrambling happens and Ward lands mounted and looking to land elbows. The fight is back standing and Ward lands a straight right that drops Goodridge. Ward pounces and the ref calls a stop to the action.
Brennan Ward wins via TKO.
Josh Diekmann vs. Tyler King
The action opens with a quick clinch and takedown by King. He passes guard and looks to land some elbows. Not much happening as King is controlling the action from the top but not doing much. Diekmann is looking to escape but only makes things worse on himself and gets mounted. King looks to be looking for an arm triangle. Now in side control, King is now looking to get the mounted-crucifix position. The round comes to an end with King having many dominant positions this round but not delivering much damage.
Easy round for King.
Round two starts with King shooting for a quick takedown as he picks up Diekmann, carries him across the cage, Matt Hughes style, and plants him near Diekmann 's corner. Diekmann briefly gets back to his feet only to be taken down again. While pressing his opponent against the cage, King throws a knee and loses his balance and falls to his back. Diekmann looks to land some ground and pound and does his first damage of the fight. King has enough of that and gets to his feet. Diekmann responds by flurrying and landing some nice punches before King lands another takedown.
That round was closer and King definitely did more damage. But I'm still giving this to King because he controlled position for much of the round.
Round three begins and King is again looking for a takedown. Diekmann gets the better of it though and lands in King's guard. Back on their feet, Diekmann lands an unintentional low-blow and King takes a breather to recover. The action resumes and King immediately closes the distance again and presses Diekmann up against the cage. King lands another double leg and is back in Diekmann 's guard. King controls much of the action but does little damage. Diekmann gets a dominant position as the round closes but it is too little, too late.
Tyler King wins by unanimous decision (30-27, 29-28, 29-27)
Luis Felix vs. Marc Stevens
Marc Stevens is our first Zuffa vet on the card tonight. The action begins with both guys feeling each other out. Round one is halfway over and neither fighter has done much. Stevens shoots in and lands a double as he falls into side control. Both fighters are working hard but neither is doing much damage.
The round ends – while neither fighter did much damage, I'll give it to Stevens because he landed a takedown.
Round two begins with both fighters keeping their distance and not throwing much. Stevens looks to be trying to set Felix up for a right hook, but can't find the right range. Stevens shoots for a double and Felix pulls a nice guillotine. It's pretty tight but Stevens fights out of it. Felix gets a dominant position and looks to do some damage. During a scramble Felix lands an illegal knee to a downed Stevens and the action is halted. Stevens takes a moment and we are back on. The round ends with both fighters exchanging.
Close round – I'm giving it to Felix.
Third round kicks off with Felix measuring to land his straight left. Both fighters clinch and Felix has him pressed up against the cage looking to land some knees. Felix lands another takedown and has Stevens pressed against the cage. Felix is finishing strong and the round closes with a flurry.
Close fight, I'm giving it to Felix.
All three judges have it 29-28. Luis Felix wins by unanimous decision.
Saul Almeida vs. Calvin Kattar
Team Blackhouse protégé' Almeida forgoes his previously ubiquitous Anderson Silva entrance music and hits the cage to a catch instrumental number.
The first round opens with Almeida looking to establish his jab. He presses Kattar against the cage and Kattar lands a takedown and finds himself in Almeida's guard. Some nice exchanges that Almeida is getting the better of. First round ends, close round. Giving it to Almeida.
Second round opens, both guys are keeping the distance and looking to snipe. Almeida looks to be slower to the punch, but he's still landing. Some back and forth exchanges lead to neither fighter doing much damage, but Kattar looking a bit fresher. Good fight.
Another close round, giving this one to Kattar.
Both fighters touch gloves as the final round opens. Almeida presses Kattar against the cage and lands a takedown. Kattar looks for an armbar that Almeida defends. He's not getting submitted, but Almeida can't get out either as Kattar has been holding his arm for a good minute plus now. With less than a minute remaining, Almeida finally pulls free and looks to land some strikes from a top position.
I am giving this one to Kattar. Good fight.
Refs make it official with the unanimous decision victory for Kattar. (30-27, 29-28, 29-28)
Mike Campbell vs. Gemiyale Adkins
The battle for "fight with the best entrance music" has been decided now. Adkins comes out to the "There's no easy way out" song from Rocky IV – Campbell comes out to Gillette Stadium staple "Put On For My City." We're cooking with gas tonight.
The fight begins with both guys having a noticeable spring in their step. Mike Campbell headlined the first ever CES MMA card when he took on Magno Almeida two years ago. Some nice exchanges leave the crowd ooohing and ahhing again. Adkins is the aggressor but Campbell is usingi his movement well and landing his straight left. Campbell looks sharp tonight in the first round.
Round ends with both guys keeping their distance. Giving it to Campbell.
Round two begins with both guys feeling each other out and looking for a big shot. Campbell is more active – I get the sense that Adkins wants to land a big left. Both fighters are taking their time, looking to land the perfect shot. They're heavily engaged but are not throwing much by way of volume. Right on command, a nice exchange gets the crowd excited. Round ends and that is a really tough round to call.
Rather than flip a coin, I'm calling this round 10-10. Would be nice if more judges did that.
Final round starts with a flurry and Adkins is briefly stunned by a left head kick. Campbell takes advantage and looks for a takedown, briefly tries to take Adkins' back before finding himself pressed up against the cage by Adkins. Miragliotta separates them and we're back in the center of the cage. Adkins gets a takedown and Campbell uses some excellent hip control and gets right back to his feet. With a little over a minute to go, Campbell lands a nice belly-to-back suplex that gets the crowd yelling again. Adkins is now fighting to keep Cambell from taking his back and is losing that battle. Campbell is looking for a rear naked choke as the last thirty seconds of the clock tick down. Campbell is really close to the finish but a game Adkins won't be submitted.
Good round, good fight. I'm giving it to Campbell.
Judges make it official with the unanimous decision for Campbell.
John Howard vs. Brett Chism
It's with deep apologies that I have to report that technical difficulties resulted in my live action recap being deleted before I could make the update.
John Howard wins via second-round TKO.
Up next, David Loiseau vs. Chris McNally
Judges make it official with the unanimous decision for Campbell.
The first round opens with McNally looking to press the action as he pushes Loiseau against the cage. Loiseau reverses the position but finds himself defending a guillotine. Loiseau gives up his back and McNally quickly loses position with Loiseau ending up in his guard. Loiseau lands a well placed elbow and McNally is bleeding. Wow… The doctor steps in and says this fight is all over. David Loiseau's elbows claim another victory.
David Loiseau wins via TKO (doctor's stoppage)
Todd Chattelle vs. Chandler Holderness
Holderness comes out blazing and stuns Chattelle almost immediately. Holderness falls on the bottom but an almost instant escape and he finds himself on top, flurrying on Chattelle. The ref jumps in between them and this fight is over.
Chandler Holderness wins via TKO.
Dave Bautista vs. Vince Lucero
It's time for our main event. Vince Lucero takes the cage to little fanfare. Bautista looks focused, ready to work. What I feel to be a curious decision, they sing the national anthem after the fighters hit the cage.
Time to go to work.
Fight begins and Lucero immediately puts his hands on Bautista's face and right from the jump it appears that Bautista doesn't like getting hit. Some exchanges on the feet and they end up pressed against the cage. Lucero is waving at the crowd and Dan Miragliotta feels that is enough reason to separate them. The action resumes and Bautista hits a pretty easy single leg. He takes Lucero's back and lands a few big fists. Lucero looks like he has no idea what to do from this position, and this is just a matter of time. Bautista is raining down leather from the back-mount and this is over. Lucero is complaining about blows to the back of the head, but this is done.
Dave Bautista wins via TKO

Maria Cotera began her career as a researcher and writer at the Chicana Research and Learning Center, a non-profit dedicated to supporting research by and about women of color. In 1989 she helped produce "Crystal City: A Twenty Year Reflection," a documentary about the role of young women in the 1969 Chicano student walkouts in Crystal City, Texas. From 1992 to 1994 Cotera worked with Dr. Jose Limon (University of Texas) on a recovery project that uncovered a lost manuscript by Texas folklorist Jovita González. Published in 1996, the manuscript, entitled Caballero, includes a critical epilogue by Cotera. Since that time she has published numerous essays on Jovita González and Sioux ethnographer Ella Deloria and has recovered other works by González. Having recently completed Native Speakers, her book about the ethnographic fiction of Ella Deloria, Zora Neale Hurston, and Jovita González, professor Cotera's research now centers on recovering the theoretical writing and cultural productions of Chicana Feminists from 1965-1985.

Medical Radiographers help healthcare professionals to identify illnesses, injuries, and medical conditions – from broken bones to heart conditions – by providing images of the area in question. Students on the Medical Radiography degree program at our Carrington College Spokane, WA campus receive the practical training they need to help them succeed in a career as a Medical Radiographer.
Students on the Spokane Radiography associate degree program are taught the skills that enable them to use diagnostic level radiation and instrumentation to produce medical images of the human body.

- 3-night sailing adventure by yacht including the Amalfi Coast, Capri and Procida
- Spend a night in Amalfi and Capri plus two nights on the island of Procida
- Dock each night and experience the islands and Amalfi Coast without the crowds
- Get involved with the sailing of the yacht, and help the skipper and crew
- Enjoy plenty of free time to bask on the beaches, swim in the sea and sightsee independently
- Small-group tour with a maximum of eight people ensures personalized attention
What You Can Expect
This trip is a sailing adventure, so an emphasis is put on pitching in and helping the crew. No experience is necessary, just a desire to participate with anything from clearing tables after meals to assisting on deck. Breakfasts and lunches are included on board, but evening meals are taken in town at your own expense.
After a full day of exploration, enjoy a good night's rest on the yacht, equipped with five cabins and three shared bathrooms that are also used by the crew. If you're a single traveler, you may be required to share a room and double bed with another passenger of the same gender.
See the Itinerary section for more details on each day.
Day 1: Amalfi
Your 3-night sailing adventure starts with a welcome meeting in Amalfi– the main town on Italy's alluring Amalfi Coast. After meeting your host and fellow group members, board your boat, leave your luggage, and then head out to get acquainted with the famous shoreline.
Perhaps take a walk along the jagged cliff-top trails overlooking the cobalt seat, or explore Amalfi to discover historical attractions like the Cathedral of Sant'Andrea with its colorful striped façade. In the evening, check out the cluster of bars that throng Amalfi's squares and dine at one of the many restaurants that line the seafront.
Overnight: boat docked in Amalfi
Day 2: Amalfi – Capri (B, L)
Enjoy breakfast on board you boat as you cruise north from Amalfi to the glamorous little island of Capri. Dock at Marina Grande, the island's ever-busy port, and then enjoy a full day of free time to see the island's sights. Relax on a picturesque pebble beach like Marina Piccola, see Capri's famous faraglioni rocks, or take a boat ride at your own expense to see the mystical Blue Grotto (Grotta Azzurra). The sea cave is illuminated by sunlight that streams in below the surface of the water, creating a dazzling blue effect.
Your yacht stays docked in Capri overnight, so make the most of the chance to enjoy the island's nightlife after the day-trippers have left. Head for the island's super-chic bars to mingle with well-heeled locals, or try some of the fresh local seafood in a Capri town restaurant (own expense).
Overnight: boat docked in Capri
Day 3: Capri – Procida (B, L)
Start your day with breakfast on board, and then cruise away from Capri across the Bay of Naples to Procida. Relax in the sun on one of Procida's beaches or swim in the azure sea from the side of the boat. Alternatively, sightsee independently, looking out for the filming locations used in movies like Il Positano: The Postman and The Talented Mr. Ripley.
For the best views, take a walk up to Castello d'Avalos, a 16th-century fortress, and look out over the colorful Marina Corricella. The Benedictine Abbey of Abbazia di San Michele Arcangelo is also well worth a visit (entrance own expense).
Overnight: boat docked in Procida
Day 4: Procida (B)
After a final breakfast, bid your host and fellow group members a fond farewell. Leave your boat and finish your 3-night tour in Procida.

The No Fun League appears to be at it again.
The National Football League has broached the idea of having their Super Bowl halftime performers pay for the privilege of hitting the stage in front of hundreds of millions of viewers and potential new fans. (I admittedly gained a new admiration for Bruno Mars during the last Super Bowl).
The NFL knows it has the biggest stage offering the most exposure artists and advertisers can get in one spot. Charging advertisers to hawk their products is a no-brainer. They have the potential to gain billions in sales.
But does that equation work for the musicians that entertain the fans while the players take a breather?
The case could be made that the NFL needs those acts more than the musicians need the league. The sounds and gyrations coming from the stage keep viewers glued to their televisions and allow the host network churn more advertising through the telecast.
So, is it arrogance, cluelessness, or just plain old-fashioned greed? We'll let you folks decide that one.
Vote in our poll and let us know it the comments below.

Vortex Shedding from Oscillating Cylinder
NCSA visualization worked with Arif Masud and Ramon Calderer from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign to visualize vortex shedding created by an oscillating cylinder. Fluid forces cause the spring-attached cylinder to oscillate about its equilibrium position. The scientists were interested in studying the three dimensional nature of the resultant flow.
The project recently continued with a different experimental setup. The cylinder was kept motionless and the Reynolds number increased in order to study the vortical structures in the cylinder's wake.
