Giveaway closes on Sunday, June 16.
Only open to Australian residents aged 15 years and over.
Personal memories can now be digitised, bought, sold and traded. The last remnants of privacy and intimacy have been swept away in what appears to be a logical progression of the explosive growth of social networks at the beginning of the 21st century. The citizens themselves have accepted this surveillance society in exchange for the comfort only smart technology can provide. This memory economy gives immense power over society to just a handful of people.
Remember Me is a 3rd person action adventure where players take on the role of Nilin, a former elite memory hunter with the ability to break into people's minds and steal or even alter their memories. The authorities, fearful of her knowledge and capabilities arrested Nilin and wiped her memory clean. After her escape from prison, Nilin sets out on a mission to recover her identity, helped by her last and only friend. This search for her past leads to her being hunted by the very people that created this surveillance society.

Application of Non-FR Emblems and Embroidery
Attachment of non-FR embroidery and emblems on flame resistant protective garments is always a difficult question to answer. The only comment of the consensus standards writing organizations, such as NFPA and ASTM, is that nothing on an article of clothing may increase the extent of wearer injury in case of garment ignition. ASTM in Standard F- 1506, Standard Performance Specification for Flame Resistant Textile Materials for Wearing Apparel for Use by Electrical Workers Exposed to Momentary Electric Arc and Related Thermal Hazards states in an appendix item that, "Logos, name tags, and other heraldry should be limited in number and surface area".
No OSHA or military standards address this area. SFI, the race driver's association, has not addressed this issue. However, identification and personalization are clearly safety issues in themselves that must be addressed by end users.
In the final analysis, the end user of the garment must weigh the benefits of identification and personalization against the potential risk from using non-flame resistant materials. Common sense in the size, placement, and number of these materials is the best solution. Bulwark Protective Apparel

Can 'Special Fields' be added to a formula in Crystal Reports?
I'm trying to create a formula whereby if a record (FIELD: NUMBERPRGN) didn't show up on the previous run (SPECIAL FIELD: Print Date) but it shows on the current run, that I can add some form of formatting to the record to indicate the changes. The run dates are ran weekly on Fridays. I'm using the 'special field' print date in the main report which consists of 24 subreports set up in calendar format. The subreports are based off each day of the week (FIELD: PLANNED_START)
Here is the start of the formula as to how i see it:
If {CM3RM1.PLANNED_START} <= {Print Date(Date)} then
("**" + {CM3RM1.NUMBERPRGN}) else {CM3RM1.NUMBERPRGN}
When I check for errors to the formula, I get error message "The field name is unknown" with the 'special field' name highlighted.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Try this formula
If {CM3RM1.PLANNED_START} <= PrintDate then ("**" + {CM3RM1.NUMBERPRGN}) else {CM3RM1.NUMBERPRGN}
you can also try this
If {CM3RM1.PLANNED_START} <= DataDate then ("**" + {CM3RM1.NUMBERPRGN}) else {CM3RM1.NUMBERPRGN}
Ok, that worked. Now I have to play around with the logic because it's not applicable in all situations. Thanks for your help.

Extreme winemaking. That's a good way to think of the Grand River Valley ice wine industry. Lovely wine made under extreme conditions, yielding extreme flavor and becoming extremely popular.
"We were the first to make ice wine in the Grand River Valley [American Viticultural Area]," the pioneering Nick Ferrante told us when we visited to learn more about their award-winning vintages. Their debut batch was in 2000. "We've increased production every year since, and it's still hard to keep up with the demand."
Ferrante is a third-generation winemaker. His grandparents, Nicholas and Anna, established the family winery in Cleveland's Collinwood neighborhood in 1937. The farm was moved to Geneva in 1942. Today, the family's winery and ristorante is firmly rooted in the Grand River Valley appellation.
To legally be labeled ice wine, grapes must be picked while frozen on the vine. Depending on weather patterns, that can mean picking in both daylight and darkness. Like some smaller vineyards still do, Ferrante crews used to pick the grapes by hand. Now things have changed. "Our explosive growth over the last 10 years required the introduction of mechanized harvesting," Nick explained.
After harvesting, the frozen grapes are crushed so their water content (in this case present as ice) is left behind. Since these grapes had the longest hang time in the vineyard, they surrender a nectar-like juice that is the most concentrated version possible of their natural sweetness and acidity.
Vidal Blanc is the most popular grape for making ice wine because its thick skin resists cracking during freezing temperatures. It drinks to lovely peach and apricot flavors. Winemakers are limited only by how adventurous they are.
"This year I'm also making our first Cabernet Franc Ice Wine and then maybe a Chardonnay," Nick shared. He was hedging on the latter but from the look in his eye, it will likely happen. The Cab Franc will have strawberry and raspberry overtones he predicted, and the Chardonnay will likely show tree fruit flavors.
If you want to learn more, circle the first two Saturdays of March on your calendar. That's when the Winegrowers of the Grand River Valley host their appellation's Ice Wine Festival.

Golden State Warriors GM Larry Riley said he isn't planning to send G Monta Ellis anywhere – at least not yet.
"It's very likely that he will not be traded on draft night or even through the summer. I'm not looking at that happening. It would take something that I don't see for that to happen," Riley said Monday. For all the changes the Warriors have made this offseason, they've done nothing to improve the roster.

We've all been there. Done that. Bought the t-shirt.
It's a part of life.
Kids get sick. Job lay-offs happen. Loved ones die. Mundane responsibilities of life get overwhelming. Life gets too busy for fun.
It's during those times, which may be chronic, we usually reach for ways to somehow pamper ourselves.
Pamper (verb) – to treat with extreme or excessive care and attention (Merriam-Webster dictionary)
We rationalize, "Life's been hard. I deserve a break. I deserve to be pampered. It's okay. Everyone will understand. No one will care if I dig into a huge bowl of ice-cream and hot fudge. I'll skip exercise and do whatever I want. Forget health. When life gets easier, I'll focus on it again."
It's in moments like these that "excessive care and attention" are required the most!
It's in times of stress that excellent nutrition, exercise and rejuvenation are crucial to restore optimal health and well-being.
Excellent nutrition will nourish the cells with much needed micronutrients, minerals and phytochemicals.
Exercise will oxygenize and rejuvenate the mind and entire body.
An empty stomach will cleanse toxins and provide deep, restorative rest.
Let's wake up to reality. Let's make the choice to pamper our bodies with kindness during times of stress.
A body under stress deserves the best of care possible.
Let's shine the light into the deep crevices of our thoughts and expose the lies that hold us captive.
Do we pamper our bodies with the best of care during times of stress?
The truth will set us free.

Innovative product particularly for flowing coated breeds e.g. Afghans, Maltese, American Cocker Spaniels etc where the coat is expected to hang in a smooth, swinging, swishy action in motion and fall smoothly back into place on the stack.
Excellent for helping to relax & straightening wavy coats.
Swishy coat can be used to soften any coat, reduce volume in the coat, reduce static electricity, help flatten a coat or make a coat appear more silky. Swishy coat is strictly a cosmetic preparation.
For fabulous results mix with water and saturate the coat in the area/s required. Comb or handwork through from roots to ends. Blow dry as normal. Break down depends on coat type, for instance a Maltese uses a tablespoon to 1 gallon of water and an American Cocker uses 1 tablespoon to 1 cup of water.
A tip when mixing, put about an inch of water in your spray bottle then add your product. Shake well and once mixed add the balance of water

A little dab will do
Debbie Pippin
(Lawton, OK)
When the wind is howling and the sun is baking this is my "go to" product. It is very thick and intense so use it sparingly at first til you get the hang of how it works. I use it on my Maltese with long coat and at first it was tricky but now I get a little dab on wet hands and glide it down into her coat. She loves it because she gets lots of petting to be sure the product is well distributed.

It's been quite some time since there was any Brittany/Santana action on "Glee." On Jan 18, Matt Carter shared a spoiler from Naya Rivera who plays Santana.
Heather Morris who plays Brittany was away from the show because she was expecting her first child. This was covered in the story by an unbelievable MIT scholarship Brittany got and accepted. It appears Morris is set to return.
It is unclear what here scenes will entail but we do know they will involve Santana to some extent. Naya posted on her Twitter account that fans should look for some kind of "Brittana shocker."
There is nothing more specific at this time but with half the cast heading for New York, there is the possibility that she ends up there too. Or will she be leaving the show on a more permanent basis?
Fans should expect to know more by the end of the next episode as to who is going to New York and who isn't. Likely candidates would seem to include Darren Criss (Blaine), Chord Overstreet (Sam), and Kevin McHale (Artie). We already have heard that Mr. Shue and Coach Sue are going and we can't wait to see how that plays out.

Encyclopedia of Jazz Musicians
Davies, Rhodri (John)
Davies, Rhodri (John), harpist b. Aberystwyth, Wales, 19 December 1971.
Davis studied with Frank Sternefeld at the University of Sheffield, earning a Bachelors in Music (with honors) from 1990-1993. He studied with Hugh Webb from 1993-1994. At the University of Huddersfield from 1994-95, he studied with Charlotte Seale and earned an MA in Music. At Trinitiy College of Music, London, Davies studied with Sioned Williams and received a Postgraduate Certificate (1995-1997).
Davies is an improvising harpist who confronts traditional concepts of the harp through his use of preparations, detuned, bowed and e-bowed strings. Rhodri's extended prepared harp techniques are rewriting the history of the instrument. Influenced by live electronics, music-concrete and electronica he is particularly interested in exploring noise, silence, texture and abstract sound on his acoustic instrument and especially working with musicians who utilize electronics.
He has been based in London since 1995 where he soon became active on the London improvisation scene. He has since performed in America, Canada and Europe and has appeared on radio and television. Rhodri works closely in a duo with the seminal saxophonist John Butcher. They were recently appearing at the Empty Bottle in Chicago and touring England in October 2002.
He performs regularly with groups that are solely dedicated to free Improvisation; The Sealed Knot; a group that connects London and Berlin musicians, Derek Baileys Company, Assumed Possibilities, Strings with Evan Parker and The Broken Consort; a young ensemble working with acoustic and electronic instruments. The ensemble was formed in Stockholm, in August 2000 by its core members Mark Wastell and Rhodri Davies. The ensemble consists of a pool of musicians with flexible instrumentation.
Much of Rhodris work explores the contradictory and complimentary flux between composition and improvisation, and he plays with many groups that reflect this interest, notably, Apartment House, IST, CRANC, and Chris Burns Ensemble, he was also a member of Butch Morris London Skyscraper and the London Improvisers Orchestra.
As a concert promoter he co-ran with Mark Wastell the successful series of concerts All Angels.
In ad hoc groupings he has played with; Angharad Davies, Steve Beresford, Philip Corner, Axel Dorner, Isabelle Duthoit, Margarida Garcia, Christian Marclay, Sachiko M, Mattin, Toshimaru Nakamura, Gert-Jan Prins, Jerome Noetinger, Eddie Prevost, Taku Sugimoto, Martin Tetreault, Annette Krebs, Andrea Neumann, Mark Wastell, Otomo Yoshihide and John Zorn.

So, kindly the boys have released this list so that we can spend Valentines Day blubbering to these songs, single, thinking of them. Sigh.
Although, we're kinda surprised that the boys just HAD to include Swifty's 'Love Story' after her break with Harry… do you reckon that was Hazza's idea?
But, whatever.
Anyway, the songs have been picked exclusively for Spotify and are up on their website now.
The list includes:
Eric Clapron – Wonderful Tonight
James Blunt – You're Beautiful
Aerosmith – I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing
Maroon 5 – She Will Be Loved
Cosmo Jarvis – Love This
Adele – Make You Feel My Love
Alicia Keys – Fallin'
Etta James – At Last
Taylor Swift – Love Story
Aww, we like it! Stick 1D's Little Things in there and it's perfect 😀
Speaking of Little Things, it's been voted amongst some of the worst love songs of all time!

Usually the first sign of pleurisy is a distinctive chest pain that starts suddenly. The pain can vary from vague discomfort to an intense stabbing pain. Sometimes it is felt only while breathing deeply or coughing, or it can cause continuous pain that gets worse with deep breathing or coughing. Usually the pain is felt in the chest wall over the location of the inflammation, but it may also be felt in the upper abdominal area or in the neck and shoulder or in a combination of these areas.
Because inhaling deeply hurts, a patient with pleurisy tends to breathe rapidly and shallowly. On the side where the pain is, the muscles of the chest move less than those on the other side. If fluid builds up between the layers of the pleura, the chest pain may go away. Large quantities of fluid can make expanding one or both lungs difficult.
Other less common symptoms may include:
- Fever
- Cough
- Shortness of breath
- Rapid breathing
Causes and Risk Factors
Pleurisy is caused by inflammation of the pleura, two thin sheets of lining that wrap around the chest cavity and lungs. Normally, these two sheets of lining smoothly glide past one another with each breath. When irritation to the pleura occurs, this causes friction during breathing.
Irritation of the pleura can be caused by:
- A virus
- Bacteria
- Cancer
- Inhaling asbestos
- The use of certain drugs, such as nitrofurantoin
- Some types of autoimmune diseases, such as lupus or rheumatoid arthritis

Corey Boemer
Nov. 7, 2013
By Scott Gierman
Saluki offensive lineman Corey Boemer and linebacker Tyler Williamson have both been named to the 2013 Capital One Academic All-District team for District V.
Boemer has started all nine games for the Salukis. He has started two games at left tackle and seven games at left guard. The junior has blocked for the SIU offense, which ranks third in the Missouri Valley Football Conference with an average of 394.6 yards per game. Boemer is majoring in biological sciences and has a cumulative GPA of 3.93.
Williamson is a captain for the Salukis. He is second on the team with 46 tackles and 7.5 tackles for loss. The junior is tied for SIU's all-time lead in career forced fumbles with six. He has forced three fumbles this year, which is tied for third in the nation. Majoring in management, he has a 3.73 cumulative GPA.
Boemer and Williamson are now both eligible for the Capital One Academic All-America team, which will be released on Thursday, Dec. 5. The Salukis have produced 14 Academic All-District players and five Academic All-Americans under head coach Dale Lennon, who is in his sixth season at SIU.

- 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 cup crushed butter-flavored crackers (about 25)
- 2 tablespoons butter
- In a large bowl, combine the broccoli, soup, 1 cup cheese, onion, Worcestershire sauce and pepper. Pour into a greased 3-qt. slow cooker. Sprinkle crackers on top; dot with butter.

Reviews for Slow-Cooked Broccoli
"I use"Hint of Salt" Ritz Crackers (usually 1 sleeve)Cream of Mushroom soup (2 Large cans)1 extra large bag of frozen broccoli florets (I thaw them before using)A handful of chucked cheddar (I push it deep into the casserole so the cheese is everywhere)1 little bag of velvet a shredded cheeseI mix everything up and put it in a pan then add the chunked cheddar randomly and bake it. The crock pot made it too mushy for me. I also started adding crushed ritz crackers to the top for some crunch :) I have made this for years and everyone I know loves it! My husband doesn't eat broccoli, but he loves this!"
"I made this back in 99' when it came out. It is delicious but was way way over cooked. I am making it tomorrw but baking it in the oven till I get the desired doneness I want."
"This is an awesome side dish and great for holiday get togeathers!"
"It has a good taste, but for me, 2 hours cooking time would have been better. It got a little too soft. And next time I'll omit the crackers. But I will be making it again."
"Very, very good. I used fresh broccoli and have a couple of comments in that regard. I was intending to use some stems when I cut the broccoli but ended up using only the flowerets. Six cups of fresh broccoli flowerets (about 1-1/2 pounds) fed 5 adults and 2 kids with maybe a tablespoon left over. The next time I prepare this dish, and I will prepare it again, I will use slightly more broccoli, 2 pounds for sure, and I will use more cream of celery soup. I think adding more soup will make it creamier. Mine was a bit on the dry side. I used Keebler Club Crackers (Original) and they were perfect. I was concerned about cooking time thinking that fresh broccoli would take longer - I decided to give it 4 hours on high. This was way too long. Easily 2-1/2 to 3 hours on high would have been fine. This dish is delicious, easy, and full of flavor and I prepared it for our Thanksgiving dinner. Being able to use the crock pot was a huge plus. This recipe is a keeper for our Thanksgiving menu next year."

This weekend seemed to be the weekend for people to vent their frustration. The minority of players that use (and sometimes abuse) trade chat were very vocal. Blizzard sucks, You suck and all sorts of choice comments were thrown at others. Perhaps it was the huge letdown of knowing that most players will have another 6 months plus of the same content over and over. Some of it may have been because of the early celebrations of Saint Patricks Day.
One of the biggest complaints came from people wanting to get tags on the rares on Timeless Isle. Complaints of players being 'kill happy' or not waiting while others arrive. Many of these are freshly new 90's looking to get their quick epic gear from rare bosses.
The difficult part of many to understand is that if it was one to 10 people in decent gear that it would be easy to slow dps and survive till everyone had a chance to arrive. But many players are running around Timeless Gear in the best gear they can obtain at this raid level. Not just this, but take Houlon for instance, there is easily 20-30 camping the happy wind serpent in the hopes of getting the mount for their collection. Every hour you can see the group forming waiting for it to show up and get mowed down in a rain of dps fire. Personally, I have arrived many times, tabbed out of my window to look up something for a couple of minutes only to pop up and see that the kill has already occurred.
Things like this difficulty can cause problems between the haves and the haves not when it comes to information. There are add-ons that will announce when a timer is up, but recently I posted up approximate times for each of the bosses on the timeless isle here.
The further we go into the last tier of the expansion to more powerful that gear will be on the 'common' player. The better the gear the faster rares will go down. Rares such as Houlon and Zesqua can go down in minutes if not seconds. Causing more and more frustrated and asking people to 'wait' to others arrive.
There really isn't much that can be done other than to help others and give them a decent idea of when some rares pop. Houlon is on approximately a 45-50 minute timer. Sometimes a kindly soul will say something 10 minutes early to give others a chance to arrive in time. With each new person that asks the same repetitive question again and again a veteran player has two choices. Tear into them with your superior knowledge, or realize you to were new and needed the help at one point.
Or if all else fails, remember the adage your grandmother should have taught you. If you have nothing nice to say, don't say anything at all. You probably are not as funny as you think you are.

Same-sex marriage has scored a victory on Tuesday in the state of Oklahoma. According to a report by USA Today on Jan. 14, a federal judge has ruled that the state's same-sex marriage ban put in place by voters in 2004 is a violation of the U.S. Constitution.
The ruling doesn't mean that same-sex marriages will happen in the state anytime soon, but it does give gay couples in the state hope. U.S. District Judge Terrence Kern stayed his ruling pending an appeal, an action inspired by the current issues surrounding a similar ruling in the state of Utah.
Kern sited a equal-protection clause of the U.S. Constitution to support his ruling. In a 68-page opinion, Kern wrote:
"Excluding same-sex couples from marriage has done little to keep Oklahoma families together thus far, as Oklahoma consistently has one of the highest divorce rates in the country. Equal protection is at the very heart of our legal system and central to our consent to be governed. It is not a scarce commodity to be meted out begrudgingly or in short portions. Therefore, the majority view in Oklahoma must give way to individual constitutional rights."
In another ruling inspired by the historic Supreme Court decision to strike down the federal Defense of Marriage Act of 1996 (DOMA), states are following similar paths in deeming state same-sex marriage bans unconstitutional. Kern also referenced Mary Bishop and Sharon Baldwin in his opinion, stating that the couple has been together for many years and should be "recognized as a married couple with all its attendant rights and responsibilities."
If appeals are denied in Utah and now Oklahoma, same-sex marriage would already see two victories in 2014 following a year that saw gay marriage and gay rights make historic progress.

Flavours as a restaurant has a minimalist setting that is tasteful and elegant affording a good enough space for corporate functions and private parties as well.
Nothing says ŌĆśAvant Garde CuisineŌĆÖ better than the latest hot spot in bustling Bangsar called Flavours. But be warned, itŌĆÖs not a pit stop to fill your belly quickly before the next client meeting.
HereŌĆÖs a place youŌĆÖll want to take your time as you savour each bite of your meal (not devour) and sit back with a satisfied sigh and a ridiculous grin on your face when youŌĆÖre done.
Headed by Chef Riz, son of MalaysiaŌĆÖs favourite Chef Wan, and previous judge of MalaysiaŌĆÖs Master Chef TV show, Flavours is a delightful fusion of Eastern and Western cuisine given the celebrity treatment by a young and talented chef that understands the deeply satisfying sensual side of food.
Speaking about his latest passion, Chef Riz said, ŌĆ£A wholesome dish is not just something which tastes ŌĆśfineŌĆÖ. It has to be fresh and nutritious for the body, as well as appetising to the eye. It should exude inviting and mouth-watering aromas, and of course it has to be tasty to the palate.ŌĆØ
Living up to his description of the ultimate wholesome dish is his to-die-for Buttermilk Pasta with deep-fried calamari. Rich yet refined in taste, the thick, creamy buttermilk-garlic sauce, with curry leaves and chilli padi is a lovely play of Eastern and Westerns flavours that go surprisingly well together.
Chef RizŌĆÖs hearty Burger selections on the other hand offer layer upon delicious layer of generous premium beef patty, aged cheddar and a thoughtful assortment of other palate pleasers that together render this meal more than just a hastily put-together snack.
Not to be outdone is his signature Nasi Briyani served with either lamb or chicken that offers a depth in flavour that never ceases to amaze. Another delicacy of special note is Chef RizŌĆÖs playfully named Amuse Bouche, which he describes as ŌĆ£ŌĆ"a palate pleaser with an Asian twist.ŌĆØ
If youŌĆÖre one who prefers to stick with hawker specials like Mee Goreng, Nasi Goreng Kampung, Mee Bandung and Char Kway Teow, youŌĆÖll be delighted with Chef RizŌĆÖs take on these. Bold and bursting with traditional flavours, he deftly handles these street favourites with a finesse that only a chef of his calibre can.
Food aside, Flavours as a restaurant has a minimalist setting that is tasteful and elegant affording a good enough space for corporate functions and private parties as well.
Of special interest is a quirky little herb garden located in a planter box just outside the restaurantŌĆÖs main entrance. It is refreshing to see the very herbs that flavour the dishes inside, growing in abundance just outside.
The bright red capsicum and chili padi were especially delightful to feast your eyes on while the sweet basil, sage, curry leaves, rosemary and dill beckoned with their pungent fragrance.
If you have finicky taste buds that beg to be pampered, why not treat them to a meal at Flavours? TheyŌĆÖll thank you profusely for it!

Postgame Audio Podcast
Post-Game Press Conference Video: Thomas, Pondexter, Romar and Holiday
SEATTLE (AP) - Isaiah Thomas laughed while making no-look passes that led to easy dunks. Washington's diminutive dynamo constantly jumped up and down as if on a pogo stick and crashed into teammates' chests following made baskets, good defensive plays - even mistakes.
"Yeah, just having fun out there," Thomas said. "We found a little thing we do, something new now."
Including win consistently.
Thomas responded from being benched the game before to score 17 points, Quincy Pondexter added 17 and the revived Huskies rolled early and then cruised to a 79-56 victory over Arizona State on Saturday night.
Justin Holiday had seven points, 10 rebounds and another game-changing night of defense as Washington (16-7, 6-5 Pac-10) completed a weekend blowout of both Arizona schools that had routed the Huskies in the desert last month.
The defending conference champions were at the bottom of the conference two weeks ago. Now they and the Sun Devils (16-8, 6-5) are in a five-way tie for second place in the scrambled conference, one game behind California. Seven games remain in the league's regular season.
"We have a lot of momentum. We know what's at stake. We have a chance to be right at the top," Pondexter said. "We're very fortunate. Usually, you lose a couple games in the Pac-10 and it's over.
"We want to redeem ourselves."
Redemption must continue Thursday night at Cal. Washington is 0-6 on the road this season.
"We just have to bring the same energy," Thomas said of leaving home, where the Huskies are 34-2 since the start of last season. "When we have our own energy, we play so good. We'll see where it takes us."
Freshman Demetrius Walker scored 14 points off the bench for the Sun Devils, who looked lethargic while losing for the third time in five games.
Rihards Kuksiks had just eight points, after scorching Washington for a career high-tying 27 in January. And senior floor leader Derek Glasser was in danger of going scoreless for the first time since his sophomore season until he made his only basket, a 3-pointer, with 6½ minutes left. That ended the Washington student section's mocking chants of "Der-ek!" with hands cupped in the shape of a zero.
The Huskies on the floor had even more fun.
Washington coach Lorenzo Romar benched Thomas at times in Thursday's win over Arizona for not leading the offense efficiently. Unfazed, last season's Pac-10 freshman of the year ignited a 25-6 run to begin Saturday's game as the Huskies avenged a 17-point loss in Tempe last month.
The Sun Devils were stagnant and unresponsive. That made the game's opening moments decisive.
Arizona State didn't make a field goal in the first 5 minutes, then fell behind by 10 after consecutive 3-pointers by Washington's Elston Turner and Scott Suggs. Sun Devils coach Herb Sendek called three time-outs in the first 11½ minutes to try to slow the Huskies.
He didn't.
"Washington really took it to us," a glum Sendek said. "The Washington guards were very dominant. ... They just soundly beat us."
An 11-0 Washington run ended with Thomas forcing in a runner on a 2-on-4 break that was ill-advised but, like everything else Huskies Saturday, successful. That put Washington up 25-6.
At that point, Ty Abbott, ASU's leading scorer in conference play, had not scored. And Kuksiks had as many fouls (two) as points. The junior from Latvia was hounded all night by Holiday.
The Huskies' long-armed defensive ace missed last month's meeting because of academic technicalities but returned this weekend to shut down both shooters who had doomed Washington in the desert last month.
Thursday night, Holiday held Arizona's Jemelle Horne to two points - 20 fewer than Horne had when the Wildcats blew out the Holiday-less Huskies in January.
"I do what I do every game. Just come out and stop whoever's in front of me," the 6-foot-6 junior said. "I take pride in it. My teammates take pride in it."
Romar just marveled.
"He was all over the place," the coach said.
The Sun Devils missed 11 of their first 13 shots and finished their dreadful half with 10 turnovers and only nine made baskets. They trailed 42-25 at the break.
Thomas had more fun in the second half. He fired a no-look pass underneath to Matthew Bryan-Amaning that Thomas was so fond of, he turned his back to the play and smiled knowing Bryan-Amaning was about to unleash a thunderous, two-handed dunk to keep Washington up by 22.
Bryan-Amaning finished with 12 points and nine rebounds.
"We're playing our best basketball of the year right now, consistent basketball," Romar said. "We'll see how good it is and how consistent it is when we get on the road."

Other new and used Nautique boats for sale include models in the Super Air Nautique series, which debuted in 1997 with the launch of the first wakeboard-specific boat. Met with uncertainty when it was released, today top ranked professional water sports athletes such as Danny Harf execute their best tricks while being towed behind these boats.

Associated Press
The Nielsen Co. estimates that 9.95 million people watched LeBron James announce on ESPN that he's leaving Cleveland to play for the Miami Heat, making it the third-most-watched program on cable television this year.
"The Decision" that aired Thursday night ranks behind the 12.3 million who watched the NFL Pro Bowl and 11.2 million who watched an episode of "ICarly" on Nickelodeon in January.
The special was of particular interest in Cleveland, where an estimated one in four homes with televisions tuned in.
James' future can't yet compare to Kobe Bryant's present, however. More than 28 million people watched Bryant win his fifth championship last month in the seventh game of the NBA Finals between the L.A. Lakers and Boston Celtics.
Tourism promoters say James is giving South Florida a boost already.
The reservations team at the Fountainebleau Resort in Miami Beach says they're getting asked about packages that include Heat tickets.
Prime 112 says athletes, sportscasters and regular diners want to know if they'll still be able to get tables at the South Beach restaurant that's bracing for even more popularity with celebrities.
Only in America would Jesse Jackson make these remarks on the Lebron James story. You just wonder sometimes what this world is coming to.
Jesse Jackson should mind his own damn business.
Jesse Jackson is a dinosaur!
All 10 million viewers have lost an hour of their lives and and now less intelligent for watching this.
"It is a disgrace. I hate it when high school players do this, so I feel no different here. You are accepting a contract for a job! It is not that special. Hold such an hour-long special when you find a cure for HIV!"
excellent article
From Stern
"Had he asked my advice in advance, I might have suggested that he advise Cleveland at an earlier time than apparently he did that he was leaving, even without announcing where he was going, so we could have eliminated that," Stern after a meeting with the NBA's board of governors. "I would have advised him not to embark on what has become known as 'The Decision.'
"I think that the advice that he received on this was poor. His performance was fine. His honesty and his integrity shine through. But this decision was ill conceived, badly produced and poorly executed. Those who were interested in it were given our opinion prior to its airing."
Didn't watch it. Had no desire to. Not a basketball fan.Actually could care less. Talking as a sports fan, what he did was "selfish". Free Agents in sports DO NOT DO THAT. It's called having class and it seems like Lebron James has none. You have to think your above everyone else to do what he did. Uncalled for. No reason for it and it just goes to show what these players think that there mightier then thou.....pitiful display of human ego and I can GUARANTEE no other player in ANY SPORT will EVEN ATTEMPT to do what he did.
"As for the "contract" you talk about, it was expired and that made LeBron free to do what he wanted to do. "
Wasn't my words, was the author of the article, and what he is saying is the show was all about him ACCEPTING a contract from Miami, nothing about the expired contract with Cleveland. Not to hard to understand is it?
"He donated the money raised from the "decision" to charity "
Like he needs the money and I'm sure ESPN would not of aired the show if he didn't. The show was all about "HIM". bottom line.
"he took LESS money to go to Miami, so why doesn't anyone mention what a self-less act that was?"
Your joking right?

A theory as to the nature and functioning of
Divination as a magical art...
by Paul Dionne
Divination is almost always
misunderstood as "predicting the future". Yes, it certainly is
meant to do that, but successful
Divination does not predict the raw
future. Divination really predicts a
future based on events that are currently happening outside of the
wizard's or witch's direct knowledge.
Let me try to make a couple of examples. A
Divination on Person A getting hit by
a bus as they cross the street next Tuesday will not work. But a
Divination on Person A getting hit by
a bus on Tuesday will work when, at the very moment of the
Divination spell, an enemy of Person A
is planning to run over Person A on Tuesday. See the difference?
The Divination is really a form of
"sensory perception" that is perceiving something going on
elsewhere that, if continued through to it's natural conclusion, will have an
impact to someone or something in the future. It is not looking into
the future, seeing something happen, coming back to the present and reporting
on it.
This begs these two questions (at least):
First of all, why doesn't Divination
work better then? Because even when you have the facts, you can't always
deduce an outcome. A lot of it depends on human behavior, which is inherently
unpredictable. Trelawney's
"big prediction" about LV
is very strong because he is not only really predictable but also really
powerful and nasty.
Second, why doesn't the wizarding world
understand what it is, why do they still consider it 'foreseeing the future'?
In a word, prejudice. Because it's not reliable, it's not treated seriously,
and those who have "the gift" are blinded by its wonder that they
don't see the reality either. In order to figure it out, you have to use more
scientific methods, and Hermione
herself says in PS16 that wizards
and witches aren't the best at using logic.
Now to the book. Here are the snippets [all from
PA] regarding the mis-named
"telling the future", and how they fit, or debunk, my theory:
She predicts that LV's servant who
has been chained for twelve years will break free and rejoin his master.
Voldemort will rise again with his
servant's aid, greater and more powerful than he ever was. All that is to
happen that night. Now, at that very moment,
Sirius is steadfastly tracking
Wormtail and is already getting
close. Crookshanks is also on the
case on Sirius' behalf.
Wormtail is
Voldemort's servant.
Voldemort is planning his own rebirth,
but does not have the ability due to his current form. Now, if the spell
first of all gathers up all this 'real time' knowledge, then the spell can
also put two and two together. It is logical for
Sirius and
Crookshanks to uncover
Wormtail (Pettigrew). It is
reasonable to assume that Pettigrew
can evade them as he has managed to in the past. It is reasonable to assume
that his cover as Scabbers will be
blown. It is reasonable to assume he will return to
Voldemort, and that
Voldemort will have
Pettigrew's help to be reborn. And
the power of Voldemort in this whole
equation makes it really "strike home" with Trelawney, hence the trancelike state she
enters. Then the spell delivers this conclusion to Trelawney, and she spouts
it off as a prediction. So it's not out of thin air, it's an assemblage
of data with a conclusion drawn.
Trelawney predicting that
Neville will break a cup appears to
come out of thin air (PA6).
Neville isn't planning on breaking a
cup. But Neville is a nervous klutz
in real-time, so she is seeing something that, if continued to it's natural
conclusion, results in Neville
breaking a cup. I think my theory still holds here.
Trelawney predicts someone won't be
around by Easter. Seems to come out of the blue
(PA6). But
Hermione already hates the
class, taken to it's natural conclusion means she's gone by Easter.
Trelawney seeing the
'Grim' many times around
Harry. It's almost universally agreed
upon that this Grim is really
a representation of Sirius aka Padfoot.
In real-time, Sirius is interested in
Harry. Also the skull (danger), the club
(an attack), etc., is very evident: in real-time,
Sirius is planning on attacking
Wormtail who is in the pocket of
Harry's best friend. If her
Divination saw all that going on, the
natural conclusion would be "Harry
will see a big black dog attacking someone, with danger, etc." So the
theory fits.
Trelawney predicts
Lupin will not be with
Hogwarts for very long
(PA11). This, too, fits the
theory. If you have all the facts about
Lupin, you can deduce he won't stay long,
her spell simply put together the pieces for her.
Harry seems to predict that
Buckbeak survives and flies away
(PA16). OK, this seems to go
against my theory. None of the events that led to
Buckbeak's release seem to even be
in the planning stages at this time, so yeah, this seems to debunk me.
Unless someone would be kind enough to twist this in my favor!
[Since Harry invented that story
off the top of his head when he actually saw nothing at all, and since it
was simply based on what he wished would happen, I don't think it's an
example of Divination at all, just
coincidence, so there is no need for it to fit this theory. -ed.]

Water Reactives in the Lab
The installation of sprinklers in the seventh and eighth floor of Mellon Institute is now complete! Many of the laboratories on those floors have water-reactives materials. It is critical that these items be protected from reaction, should the sprinklers become activated. Many of these materials are already protected from that situation by virtue of their current storage in enclosed containers or in glove boxes. HOWEVER, if you are on the applicable floors of Mellon Institute, please check on your inventory to see that your water reactives are protected. EH&S is able to provide, at no cost, waterproof outer containers to protect these items. If you wish to avail yourself of these, please contact EH&S at 8-8182.

Formed in 1937, the American Public Works Association (APWA) is the only professional organization that caters exclusively to public works professionals.
Almost 30,000 public works directors, city engineers, fleet managers, property and equipment superintendents, utilities managers, community development directors, transportation managers, park directors, county officials, and other titles belong to the organization. Since membership's open to any person, agency, or company interested in the profession, there are also a lot of engineering consultants and manufacturers as well.
Public Works magazine features APWA's Top 10 Leaders in a cover story every year. We asked this year's crop what their favorite technology is, and their answers will surprise you.
In addition to certifications in stormwater management and infrastructure inspector, APWA offers a Certified Public Fleet Professional (CPFP) designation.
If you're looking for continuing education units (CEUs), APWA's got that covered as well.
I'm writing from Toronto, where more than 5,000 people are gathered for the first time in more than 25 years for APWA's annual convention. This is THE show for public works professionals who want to earn CEUs and/or kick the tires on the latest technology and equipment, featuring:
One last thing: Public Works isn't affiliated with APWA, which publishes The APWA Reporter, but we wholeheartedly support the association's mission. With 63 chapters in North America (including eight in Canada), you don't have to travel far to find support from people facing the same challenges. I always learn something when I attend one of the many excellent tours, seminars, and other events put on by the APWA's Chicago Metro Chapter.

The Craziest College Classes of Fall 2012
When it comes to academia, your day-to-day class schedule has an unfailing way of coloring your otherwise fabulous life 50 shades of Pretty Freakin' Bleak. We sympathize with you, we really do. We've compiled a list of the craziest college classes of Fall 2012 so you can live vicariously through the FIT students getting class credit for learning how to differentiate between quartz and real deal diamond. Isn't it about time you took an elective?
"Just Friends: I Don't Love You Like That" - Harvard University (Cambridge, Massachusetts)
Doesn't this course title sound like the next mediocre romantic comedy starring Jennifer Aniston and Bradley Cooper you might plan your next girls' night out around? "I Don't Love You Like That, opening this weekend at a Cineplex near you. Grab your popcorn. Grab your boyfriend who we promise would rather buy you tampons than see this film."
In reality, it's a first year seminar at Harvard concentrating on the nature of friendship and its role throughout history, from platonic love to the contemporary concept of "friend zoning." As a first year seminar, it's only open to freshmen, which means if you're still getting the "I just wanna be friends" talk from guys sophomore year, you are apparently completely out of luck. Sorry, girl.
"Pet Nutrition" - University of Guelph (Guelph, Ontario, Canada)
Now here's a course we could have used when we were killing off goldfish every other week during our childhood. Nutrition is something humans spend an inordinate amount of time per day ruminating on, but when it comes to Fido, it's kind of like, "Oh crap, I dropped that tofu cube on the floor. Whatever, the dog will get it." Furthermore, since Garfield started going YOLO over lasagna in 1978, cats worldwide have tossed up their paws in resignation and surrendered to the prefix their species seemed inevitably prone to procure: fat. But University of Guelph is having none of this. In Pet Nutrition, veterinary students learn the nutrient requirements, feed formulation, and nutritional idiosyncrasies for dogs, cats, and exotic pets, so you can finally discover the dietary requirements of the macaque you want to adopt.
"Basic Bookbinding" - Fashion Institute of Technology (New York, New York)
Bookbinding may seem like an obsolete trade of monks and Mennonites alone, but upon witnessing Lauren Conrad's recent first-degree book murder, this ancient practice has received the greatest PR boost in its entire several thousand-year history (Can you say enterprising? This is more compelling than anything that ever happened on The Hills!). In this course, students learn bookbinding through traditional methods like sewing and accordion folding—invaluable skills when an unpredictable girl with an X-Acto knife between her polished fingers is threatening to chop all your books up under the pretense of a "crafty creation."
"Thinking about Video Games" - Bard College (Annandale on Hudson, New York)
Our first reaction to the title of this class was that perhaps it was simply a comical euphemism for the idle lives of lazy college students. As in, "Oh yeah, this semester I'm taking Economic Theory II, Early Victorian Literature, Themes in Northern Art, and 'Thinking About Video Games', wink wink, nudge nudge." But oh, how wrong we were. Bard College has in fact created a course on the very topic of many an adolescent boy's academic demise: video games (and the time spent thinking about them). The syllabus details a semester-long analysis of computer gaming through philosophy, history, cultural theory, and art, including a look into the nature of games and their function in society. If you've ever cursed your boyfriend for skipping out on a hangout to beat "this really, really intense level in COD", maybe it's time to forgive, forget, and take back that one time you threw a controller at his head and called him a failure.

Today's CIO-led local government information technology department is transforming from its traditional role of improving efficiency and customer service. City and county CIOs are increasingly launching innovative services that enable critical internal and external collaboration, according to a sampling of CIOs representing cities and counties from across the country.
The survey, conducted by Public Technology Institute in April and May, 2008, focused on the evolving role of the local government CIO. On the topic of leadership, the survey found:
- Collaboration: Seventy-six percent of respondents consider the CIO and the IT leadership teams as "thought leaders" in generating business unit understanding of technology and innovation
- Alignment: Seventy-one percent stated that cross-business unit alignment and collaboration are led by the CIO and the IT organization.
On the issue of change management the survey found:
- The CIO: Sixty-six percent of respondents stated that the CIO/IT organization is always at the table during discussions of strategic change that impact the entire government enterprise.
- The CEO: Eighty percent stated that the local government CEO or CAO -- the individual the CIO reports to -- is open and flexible to change
- Other Departments: Fifty-two percent of the CIOs felt that the people within the business units and departments supported by IT were flexible and open to change
- Professional Development: Forty-nine percent stated that the IT organization has made professional development of staff a priority to help create a capacity for change.
The survey results were announced at the workshop "The Ever-Changing Role of the CIO" presented during the Public Technology Institute 2008 Technology Leadership Conference and Exposition in May in Miami.
"The skill sets of today's CIO are a far cry from what they were even five years ago," said David Behen, deputy county administrator and CIO of Washtenaw County, Michigan, and co-chair of the PTI CIO Council.
"These skills are being put to the test in today's tough climate of declining government budgets when now, more than ever before the CIO is being called on to lead and spur creativity while maintaining effective technology initiatives that are critical to government service delivery, public safety and a community's quality of life."
"Today's CIO is spending less time putting out the 'IT fires', and spending more time and energy promoting IT as a tool for innovation and collaboration," added Alan Shark, executive director of the Public Technology Institute.
When asked to name the skill sets that today's CIO require to be effective leaders, the CIOs identified:
- Being politically savvy
- Exerting leadership, influence and resourcefulness
- Developing and managing relationships with other high-level leaders throughout the organization
- The role strategic planning can play both inside and outside the organization
- The ability to lead employees through the good as well as the tough times.
In 2009 PTI will release CIO Leadership for Cities & Counties: Emerging Trends & Practices, the first book written specifically for the local government CIO. The book will describe the professional skill sets that CIOs need to be successful, and will include tried-and-true management practices that technology executives can learn from and tailor to their specific needs.

Franziska Strauss presents her first solo exhibition, Reckoner / I killed my dinner with karate at the gallery from March 5th to April 9th, at the Egbert Baqué Contemporary Art in Berlin.
This short video is unbelievably amazing for anyone who hasn't ridden a motorcycle and wants to know what it feels like. It is filed by director Henrik Hansen and his team in 2010. Love the audio and filming of this. Hope to see more!
Interesting quick read about a software that allows multiple folks to "design" a set of given objects. Or to make them better.
This goes along with many of our previous crowd-sourcing debates and the end of our professions. And many of you may disagree with such a thing. But this got me thinking. It might be kind of neat to have some kind of way to simultaneously work on a file. If I had say, InDesign open and I could simultaneously work on a file with a trusted designer friend, it just may yield some pretty rewarding results. Perhaps this already exists in some capacity? I know that screensharing may facilitate such a thing. But I wonder if somebody were to take that experience one step further and create a truly multi-designer interface that would allow for two or more people to truly create something inconceivable by one person?
Anyways, just some random thoughts. Have a read as time permits.
I randomly ran into this today. Was unaware but one of my favorites, the awesome folks over at The International Office, in Wellington, NZ, have updated their site with some new goodies. Had the pleasure of meeting these folks while conducting the Friendship Chronicles (which I need to finish, do not remind me), and have to say, they were amazing folks and also amazing talents. Will always remember this.
Have a look see as time permits at some truly amazing work. I do not even know how to put their work. Neo-modernism with a bit of personality? It's so clean yet I feel like I could tell it was done by them. Regardless. Enjoy.
Okay, not sure how this works exactly. So in a previous post, I asked if somebody knew of the official site of Korean photographer Bae Byung-Woo. And a nice person by the name of Hsin Yin Low sent me the official site. However his name is different here. Bae Bien-U? Not sure how it works. Regardless, here is a nice repository of more of his works. The only thing that I am missing from this site are some of those more gritty pictures of age that were captivitating in the first post. Regardless. Enjoy!
What already was an amazing and amazingly curated music blog has now become even better. Sitting conveniently in a unique position among web experiences, this is now a place for some comfortably curated viewing and listening pleasures. From some pretty exquisite tastes at that. I love all the little typographic details as well. Alot of heart and care has gone into this. So as time permits, or as your interactive experiences permit, have a look at the new YYY. Yes Yes Y'all!
Just as every music enthusiast will occasionally toss the iPod or CD collection to one side, pull his or her vinyl collection out of the dusty box, and lie there listening to the nostalgic scratch of some long-forgotten classics – you can imagine my enthusiasm on recently discovering a series of interviews with my first memory wave of design celebrities or 'rock stars' from the 80's and 90's on Debbie Millman's 'Design Matters' podcasts. If you were a student in either of these eras (which I imagine many of our readers where), then these come highly recommended (Chris was kind enough to cover some of this subject a while back). Brody, Saville, Fella, Carson, Glaser and Curtis are just to name but a few. This morning it was a cross-atlantic call with Vaughan Oliver, with notable mention of the much under-mentioned Chris Bigg. For those who aren't over familiar, Oliver was thrust into the design limelight back in the late 70's for his openly self-indulgent and somewhat rebellious artwork for the record label 4AD.
This came link came from my friend Hideki. I love this video by Daihei Shibata. Nice1.
I'm genuinely intrigued. Tell me you're not…?
Lets begin this editorial column with a simple observation about a simple practice… sketching. No one does it anymore! That initial spark of an idea that once yielded a creative union of flesh to No. 2 has now moved onto plastic and glass.
I don't want it to seem like I'm pushing a product, but if you want to do letterpress on the cheap at home or your studio then LifeStyleCrafts has a pretty nice solution. You can even get custom plates made! I've seen some samples and they actually look pretty darn good. Nice1.
This has to be the most amazing footage I've seen in a long time. It is an HD transfer from a 16mm original of a launch of a Saturn V rocket. Thanks for the link Olivier. :D
