RPost has settled its separate patent infringement suits against both Swiss Post and Canada Post after court-ordered mediation.
RPost said in a terse statement that the settlement terms are "consistent with our intent to vigorously protect our intellectual property everywhere."
Canada Post, which is paying RPost some undisclosed amount of money under its settlement, has agreed to "block messaging traffic of its epost product to the United States IP address range."
The settlement resolves RPost's complaint based on its US patent. It's got a Canadian patent and will be examining the recently reprised epost that Canada Post is depending on to tickle its revenues to see if it infringes.
The terms Swiss Post accepted are secret but evidently it has agreed to abandon the US market, an undertaking it made to RPost once before and reneged on.
If one digs deep enough on the post's IncaMail web site there's a discrete – practically hidden – message that says, "Registration for reception is possible for persons and companies from the USA. Sending is not allowed." So if an IncaMail subscriber is in the US he can get mail but can't return it.
Presumably Swiss Post has also dropped its claims that RPost patents are invalid.
RPost also settled patent and trademark infringement charges against Silicon Valley Web Hosting created by the hoster's now ex-customer Read Notify. RPost is still suing Read Notify.
Meanwhile, RPost has gotten its 46th patent. This one – US No 8,275,845 – covers technology to record the indication of acceptance or rejection of an offer sent by e-mail.
CEO Zafar Khan says it "adds to the electronic transactions and signature patents in RPost's portfolio." One of RPost's proof and tracking patents recently challenged has now been certified as valid after re-examination by the US Patent and Trademark Office.

We all know the latest numbers: Gartner, Inc. forecasts that 6.4 billion connected things will be in use worldwide in 2016, up 30 percent from last year, and will reach 20.8 billion by 2020.

Jockey Full Of Bourbon Lyrics
Artist: Tom Waits
Album: Rain Dogs
Edna Million in a drop dead suit
Dutch Pink on a downtown train
two dollar pistol but the gun won't shoot
I'm in the corner in the pouring rain
16 men on a deadman's chest
and I've been drinking from a broken cup
2 pair of pants and a mohair vest
I'm full of bourbon; I can't stand up
Hey little bird, fly away home
your house is on fire; your children are alone
Hey little bird, fly away home
your house is on fire; your children are alone
Schiffer broke a bottle on Morgan's head
and I've been stepping on the Devil's tail
across the stripes of a full moon's head
through the bars of a cuban jail
bloody fingers on a purple knife
a flamingo drinking from a cocktail glass
I'm on the lawn with someone else's wife
come admire the view from up onto of the mast
Yellow sheets in a Hong Kong bed
Stazybo horn and a Slingerland ride
to the carnival is what she said
a hundred dollars makes it dark inside
Repeat first verse and Chorus

Last Mo. Road Closed By 2011 Flood Has Reopened
OREGON, Mo - More than 16 months after flooding swamped northwest Missouri in the summer of 2011, the last road closed by the water has reopened.
The Missouri Department of Transportation said Friday that Holt County Route 111 is open to all traffic.
More than 70 miles of Missouri roads were closed in 2011 because of flooding and the debris that the waters brought into the area.
MoDOT noted that the water stayed in some places for months and often had a current as strong as the Missouri River.
The transportation department estimated it spent $17 million to repair the flood-related damage.

Meet Monica VelourHD Closed Captioning
Keith Bearden
Open iTunes to preview, buy, and download this movie.
About the Movie
In this irreverent comedy, awkward teenager Tobe (Dustin Ingram) sets off on a road trip to meet Monica Velour (Kim Cattrall of TV's SEX & THE CITY), his favorite '80s porn star, at a rare live appearance hundreds of miles away. Instead of the glamorous sexpot portrayed on film, he finds a 49-year-old single mom living in a trailer in rural Indiana, performing at seedy strip clubs to make ends meet. A starry-eyed Tobe, still captivated by his crush, befriends Monica, further complicating her difficult life. Kim Cattrall gives a career-defining performance in this offbeat love story, brought to you by the producers of The Kids Are All Right and Garden State, that appeals to the dreamer - and the nerd - in all of us.

Fresh: Like a fledgling Will Ferrell, Mr. Ingram embraces his inner nerd with mouth permanently agape and hair sprouting like florets of burned broccoli. But this is Ms. Cattrall's movie all the way.
Rotten: The role of a former star of the ''golden age'' of porn sounds perfect for Kim Cattrall, and she handles it nicely - at least, in the rare moments when this indie comedy isn't terminally contrived.
Rotten: In some ways this film's biggest failing is that it can't decide whose story it is telling, his or hers.
Fresh: Better than its premise would suggest, the film works to the degree that it does thanks to the well-drawn characterizations and the frequent doses of sly, subtle humor.

I can't get enough of Cat Face. The animation is very smooth, the jokes are funny and the new character is great!
I'd love to see the salescat coming back in future episodes.
BTW: I have to agree on X3cutioner that I love the full-screen option.
Gotta love cat face.
I'm getting addicted this flash. It's funny.
Another triumph
Yet more great work from Weebl and Wonchop. Words fail me to describe just how funny this episode has been, but suffice to say, it has left previous episodes of Cat Face quite some way behind.
I think that the piece as a whole could be improved upon by having a few extra characters in there, even if they don't have speaking parts, then just to walk past in the background.
I love the childish pastels of the background - it looks so simple and so innocent, while putting forth a greatly detailed stage for Cat Face to ply his trade... speaking of which, does he actually have a job of some description? Perhaps I see a new episode idea forming in your brains there, chaps.

You can do me know wrong. Great animation as usual.

WASHINGTON, April 23, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Global Learning Systems (GLS), a leading eLearning solutions provider of off-the-shelf and customized security and compliance training, announced the newest addition to its compliance library: the Anti-phishing Essentials Training course that incorporates scenario-based learning and gamification elements to educate employees on one of today's largest threats to information security.
Logo - http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20140422/77427
"We are excited to announce the release of this new learning program as targeted social engineering and phishing attacks are increasingly impacting organizations worldwide," said Larry Cates, President & CEO of GLS. "This scenario-based training is designed to challenge and test users to promote improved awareness, best practices and ultimately lead to behavior change. This training program can be utilized as a key resource within the compliance training library and also as part of an overall social engineering and targeted phishing testing and assessment program."
The 25 minute, online anti-phishing training is sure to make an impact, as recent reports indicate attackers are still posing as trusted organizations (such as recognized web services providers, phone companies, and banks), to gain the trust of individuals in these sophisticated attacks. Attackers are also using multiple channels of communication such as phone calls, emails or text messages to engage the victim. GLS firmly believes employee awareness of such attacks is vital to maintaining individual and organizational security.
This course has three rounds, and in each round, learners are challenged to recognize a variety of phishing and social engineering attacks, choosing the safest course of action. Based on their responses, the program will take them on a specific learning path to build awareness. The training course can be combined with simulated attacks, posters, quick reference cards, and newsletters to provide multiple channels of communication to raise awareness across the organization, providing a complete anti-phishing program.

Retailers spent $4.67 billion this year on interactive marketing efforts. That number is expected to reach $8.6 billion by 2014 as retailers seek to drive more web sales, says a new report.
Retailers spent $4.67 billion this year on interactive marketing efforts, a number that is expected to climb to $8.6 billion within five years as retailers seek to drive web sales, improve their search programs, personalize display ads, and launch mobile marketing programs, says a new Forrester Research Inc. report.
The reason? E-commerce has outpaced traditional retail channels. And 70% of retailers in Forrester's "The State of Retailing Online 2009: Marketing" report said they intend to increase or maintain their interactive marketing spend, particularly for search and e-mail marketing.
Moreover, the report suggests that retailers will spend on search engine optimization to improve the efficiency of their search marketing campaigns, rather than expand their keyword lists. For instance, Buy.com boosted its revenue from paid search 75% by working with Adlucent to optimize its buys based on available inventory and spending trends.
Mobile will also continue to grow-and retailers will integrate it with their web commerce and in-store point-of-sale technologies, says the report. As a result, Forrester expects mobile spending to increase from $59 million this year to $193 million in 2014.
"Retailers today denote 49% of their online budgets to acquisition-too much in our book," Forrester says in the report. "We think that as retailers mature their interactive marketing efforts, they can spend more efficiently by remarketing to repeat customers rather than constantly trying to attract fresh ones."
To do so, retailers should ensure that their sites' content includes all the essential information shoppers need, as well as clear privacy policies. After doing so, they should channel at least 10% of their existing acquisition dollars into on-site content, such as updating their product pages and offering customized pricing, says the report.
Retailers also need to find tools to measure their interactive marketing campaign's effectiveness beyond just the sale. Doing so can help retailers identify how much they need to spend to influence new or repeat customers' shopping behaviors.
Retailers and consumer packaged goods brands have an unprecedented opportunity to work together, particularly if ...

This handsome little crossover is the 2012 Citroën C4 Aircross, and it's ready to boldly go where every other CUV has gone before. Like the vast majority of C-segment-based, high-riding crossovers, the C4 Aircross is, to quote associate editor Zach Bowman, more "mall-terrain" than all-terrain.

Fixed-Price - Intermediate ($$) - Est. Budget: $1,000 - PostedSkills: Game Development C# Unity
Hi, My name is Trevor and i am looking for a someone to help start and complete a FPS game i had come up with. I would like to mention that i am 16 and have no programming experience. So i would like to have someone who lives somewhat near me, which is New York around 40 min from the city. I have an idea for a first person shooter game which i think would do great but need help getting it out there. So this is why i have chosen to get help from someone who is an experienced C# programmers, who uses Unity 3D game engine and is experienced with it, and may also have some other qualifications such as maybe small animating or UI though not necessary. I would like Unity 3D for a couple reasons, one, i have an account there with many useful assets to help in the project which some i intend on using, and two because i have tried the engine out for myself and like it because its easy to use and figure out and the graphics are good enough for me and this game. And one last point i would like to make is as i have mentioned i am young, so i don't have much money, so if possible i would need someone flexible with payments and such (and the budget is unknown so please ignore that). Thank you very much for checking this post out, if anyone is interested please email me at mooneytrevor @ gmail . com (no spaces of course) As i do not wont to use the Upwork chat system for contacting among other reasons as well. Thank you.

Deputy PM: Bulgaria Remains Top Investment Destination
Bulgaria remains one of the best investment destinations boasting a reasonable fiscal policy and low tax rates, according to Deputy Prime Minister Daniela Bobeva.
Speaking Friday in Parliament, she said that the socialist-led government had implemented a number of measures for attracting investors, including the reduction of the administrative burden for the business sector and the fast-track recovery of VAT and liabilities to companies.
"As part of the efforts to attract investments, the work of the InvestBulgaria Agency changed. It is no longer a structure which merely issues certificates to investment projects under administrative procedures but it works with the investors," Bobeva declared.
She explained that separate working groups were being created to support the implementation of big projects.
Bobeva, as cited by investor.bg, announced that seven projects worth a total of BGN 369 M had been certified in the period July 2012 – March 2013.
She also made clear that projects worth BGN 586 M had been awarded certificates and applied for certification in the period July 2013 – March 2014, without specifying their number.
She was asked by GERB MP Lilyana Pavlova about the steps the government was taking to prevent the collapse in investments in Bulgaria.
Pavlova, Regional Development Minister during the term in office of the GERB government, cited statistics of the Bulgarian National Bank indicating a decrease in investments by 50% on an annual basis in the first months of the year.
"The reason for this is political and economic instability during the past year in office of the government," she claimed.
Bobeva, however, argued that the business climate indicator had kept growing in the first five months of the year and its value had already reached the level of 2009, adding that this indicated an improvement in investment activity.

We visited Ju Ma Na several times on our last visit to Bali (2012) and it was just incredible, We were very excited this time to be going back but a bit disappointed.
The food was very good but seemed to be missing a little something, then we discovered the chef has changed. Whilst the food is still very good there was just that little something that was missing...... sorry can't give you more detail you kind of had to be there.
Given there are a lot of new restaurants of this quality on the island now, we found that the wine list was very expensive. The prices haven't changed since last year its just the market has opened up a lot and wine is now become a lot more affordable.
I would recommend that you go for the experience and you will probably wonder what am I talking about in this review but we have been to some incredible restaurants on Bali this trip and I think Ju Ma Na may not be keeping up with the changing times.
Ju Ma Na was well ahead of the game last year but maybe complacency has set in...

It also inspired the fantastic movie "Point Blank" with Lee Marvin, and a beautiful recent comic book adaptation by the wonderful Darwyn Cooke.
After reading Donald Westlake's The Hot Rock (read my review), a humorous crime novel about a gang of professional thieves who repeatedly bungle a jewel heist, I picked up Westlake's The Hunter, a much less funny, but equally enjoyable, 1962 novel about a sociopathic thief named Parker, who is the main character in many of Westlake's crime stories. (Westlake wrote the Parker series under the pen name Richard Stark, one of many pen names he adopted during his prolific career.)
The Hunter is about Parker's quest to get revenge on a partner who ripped him off and tried to have him killed right after Parker and his crew robbed a gang of arms smugglers. Parker doesn't let anyone impede his mission, even if it means killing an innocent person who just happens to be in the way.
At one point while reading The Hunter I contemplated abandoning it because I was bothered by Parker's psychotic disregard for human life, but two reasons kept me going. One, the people that Parker is going after are even more despicably inhuman than he is. And two, Westlake is such a terrific writer I couldn't stop myself from reading to find our what happens.
Parker fits in with the current crop of charismatic sociopaths that headline shows like Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones, Mad Men, and Dexter. I guess their appeal is that even though they are awful people, they have just enough humanity to make you care what happens to them without actually rooting for them. It takes a skilled writer to create bad people that you care about, and Westlake is one of the greats. I've started the second novel in the Parker series. I'll let you know what I think when I'm finished reading it.

It also inspired the fantastic movie "Point Blank" with Lee Marvin, and a beautiful recent comic book adaptation by the wonderful Darwyn Cooke.
As a friend who recommended it pointed out, it's some of the leanest prose imaginable. It's a thin book, and nothing is extra.
Darwyn Cooke's books do a great job recreating the stories as noirish graphic novels. He's done three so far, and I think it's a great medium for Parker.
"Point Blank" was remade by Mel Gibson, as well, and Jason Statham just made a movie, "Parker," based on a later Parker novel. Parker, however, does not have an English accent, so it's didn't work for me (he also tries a terrible Texan accent).
I was going to say, reminds me of 'Payback' with Mel Gibson. Is that the movie adaptation/remake you are referring to or did he do another bad-guy protag film?
Yes–Point Blank and Payback are both adaptations of The Hunter. And Payback has a 'director's cut' (which, IMHO, is horrible). Payback is one of my favorite movies. Point Blank is also very good, although a bit campy due to when it was made.
He also (as Stark) wrote three or four books starring Parker's sometime-partner Alan Grofield, which are OK but not nearly as good as the Parker books.
I read these (and Westlake's Dortmunder books) for the first time a couple years ago and enjoyed both series. They are almost funhouse-mirror images of each other. (In fact, I think there is an elusive Dortmunder book out there that features a Parker book-within-the-book.)
The Dortmunder novel is Jimmy the Kid, but the Parker book-within-the-book doesn't exist.
Darwyn Cooke is one of my favorite comic book artists, and while crime isn't a genre I read in novels, it's one I do seem to enjoy in graphic novels. I highly recommend the adaptations, Cooke is his usual outstanding self.
May I recommend Patricia Highsmith's excellently socio/psycho-pathic Ripley series (aka the Ripliad)
see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Ripley
also turned into some excellent movies, The American Friend by Wim Wenders, remains a firm personal favourite.
Love the Ripliad.
I love the Parker novels, the hunter is arguably the best. He is such a cool character, he has his code and breaks heads. Fantastic. I really enjoyed The Seventh too a minor Parker novel in some ways but it's plot is pretty tight.
Makes me think of Stephen King's "The Dark Half" where he writes about a failing writer who creates a pen name under which he writes ultra-violent crime novels. The pen name is George Stark. Wonder if these Parker novels were any inspiration?
King is a big crime fiction fan, and he's started dabbling in it himself–he wrote The Colorado Kid (it's interesting to look at the Amazon reviews–there are almost equal amounts in all five star categories) and has another one coming up called Joyland. Some of his short stories also fall into that category; "Dolan's Cadillac" is a revenge story that Parker could appreciate, and "The Ledge" is another good one.
Oh, baby! Stark is the hardest of the hard-boiled novelists. The whole series is remarkable and well worth the time. Glad they are being reissued as the original paperbacks were only published once (for the most part) and for many years were very expensive. I second the Point Blank film adaptation, but I'm more impressed with the graphic novels that have been coming out recently. Have fun, Mark!

For most people, this time of year is a relaxing one, but I'm in the midst of a trial separation. A couple of years ago I decided cricket and I were simply not getting on.
OPINION: There were too many broken promises, screaming rows followed by moody silences, and even infidelity after I started attending Phoenix games during summer. So I decided that cricket and I should quietly part for a while. As with any relationship breakdown, it wasn't all the other party's fault. I had become a fickle follower. New Zealand being 34-5 on the first morning of a test was enough to make me fly off the handle and watch the Arts Channel for the rest of the day.
But the relationship wasn't always bad. Being the youngest child, I often had time on my hands during summer. As my siblings took off on beach holidays with friends or to attend rock festivals, my parents and I camped in places with beautiful bush but no trampolines, swimming pools, or other attractions of which 11-year-olds dream.
Thankfully I had a small transistor radio so could listen to the cricket. It would irritate my father that, whenever we hit some bay in the middle of nowhere, his big radio couldn't pick up the news yet my tiny transistor could easily amplify the cricket commentary.
My parents remember a beautiful West Auckland beach as the place where Mum spotted a tui, yet I remember it for Richard Collinge and Brian Hastings completing a world-record tenth-wicket partnership. The bay at Coromandel's Colville sticks in my mind not for its sparkling water but because it's where I heard Rodney Redmond score a century in his only test match. Most people think of kauri forest at the mention of Donnelly's Crossing in the Far North, but that's where I first heard about Dayle Hadlee's little brother Richard taking a few wickets for Canterbury.
The radio cricket commentators were a strange bunch. Most commentated part-time and had jobs in accountancy or as deputy principals of boys' schools. They had a wonderfully florid turn of phrase that you get with amateurs trying to be literary. Why say "lunch break" when you can say "luncheon adjournment"? An "agricultural stroke" sounded far better to them than "a wild swing". Glenn Turner never patted down the pitch but "did his gardening". And I'll never forget an English commentator nonchalantly saying: "Sadly, Hadlee bowls badly to Radley." You could hear the other commentators sniggering for the next 30 minutes.
So when did my relationship with cricket start to deteriorate? It was well before the current crop of Black Caps started to lose regularly. New Zealand cricket teams have always had their fair share of losses, but it's the way that our present teams lose that is so galling. Perhaps the glut of cricket, with its never-ending series of flashy 20-over games, has caused fan fatigue as well. Or maybe the succession of appalling cricket administrators has gradually worn me down.
I think the actual moment that I first started to question my relationship with the game was when, some years ago, I heard ex-coach Glenn Turner describe the hysterical way wealthy "young guns" like Chris Cairns and Adam Parore acted when he dished out a bit of criticism. They were part of a new "rock star" generation of highly paid stars who had awesome talent but often lacked grit and application. To ignore the advice of someone with Turner's experience is unforgivable. You reach the heavens by standing on the shoulders of the giants who came before you, as a clichd cricket commentator would say.
After the recent Black Caps' triumph in Sri Lanka, I was pleasantly surprised, yet for some reason I wasn't elated. As for last week's first-innings debacle against South Africa, I was more amused than outraged. If the same thing had happened in the 1970s, with my little transistor radio in Godforsaken Bay, I would have been in tears. And you know that during a trial separation, when the bad behaviour of the other party causes amusement rather than anger - then it's time to get a divorce.

Color-correcting skin by the numbers
Color-correcting skin by the numbers
Here I want to briefly introduce you to another topic for Color Correction. It has to do with taking a look at the skin and the CMYK values of the skin, and following a bit of a recipe in order to get those numbers in a good range. Well, let's go ahead and take a look at how this works. I'm going to press the I key to select the Eyedropper tool. Next, I want to make sure my sample size is something other than point sample. Now, because this is a relatively low- res file, I'm going to choose 5 x 5; yet if it were a high-res file, I might choose 11 x 11, or if it's a really high-res file, I will choose one of these options here.
I'll go ahead and select 5 x 5. Next, what I want to do is simply hold down the Shift key and then click in the background, because I'm assuming that this background was black, and I know that because I was there and captured this image. So I want to set a point there, and then I want to go to the highlight on the forehead here, and just move ...

Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF), an acute mosquito-borne viral illness of sudden onset that usually follows a benign course with headache, fever, prostration, severe joint and muscle pain, swollen glands (lymphadenopathy) and rash. The presence (the "dengue triad") of fever, rash, and headache (and other pains) is particularly characteristic of dengue. Dengue is endemic throughout the tropics and subtropics. It goes by other names including breakbone or dandy fever. Victims of dengue often have contortions due to the intense joint and muscle pain.
DHF is caused by one of four closely related virus serotypes (DEN-1 through DEN-4) of the genus Flavivirus, family Flaviviridae, each serotype is sufficiently different that there is no cross-protection and epidemics caused by multiple serotypes (hyperendemicity) can occur.
Signs and Symptoms
Headache, fever, exhaustion, severe joint and muscle pain, swollen glands (lymphadenopathy), and rash. The presence (the "dengue triad") of fever, rash, and headache (and other pains) is particularly characteristic of dengue.
Classic dengue fever is characterized by: 1. Fever: Sudden and abrupt onset. May go up to 39.5-41.4°C. Lasts for about 1-7 days, then fades away for 1-2 days 2. It soon recurs with secondary rashes which is usually not as severe as before 3. Headaches 4. Fever is usually accompanied by headache in front portion of head or behind the eyes 5. Muscular (Myalgia) or bone pain: Occurs after onset of fever. Affects legs, joints, and lumbar spine. Usually the pain gets severe after its onset. The pain may last for several weeks even after the fever has subsided
Other symptoms:
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.
Nausea and vomiting Loss of appetite Increased sensation to touch Change in taste sensation Symptoms maybe milder in children than in adults The acute phase of illness can last for 1 week followed by a 1 to 2 week period of recovery period that is characterized by weakness, malaise and loss of appetite.
Laboratory Results
In patient with DHF, the haematocrit is increased and the platelet count is decreased. Laboratory result of Jed Francis Garlando:

dehydration and significant concentration of the blood if the patient is unable to maintain oral intake A platelet transfusion is indicated in rare cases if the platelet level drops significantly (below 20,000) or if there is significant bleeding The presence of melena may indicate internal gastrointestinal bleeding requiring platelet and/or red blood cell transfusion. Aspirin and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs should be avoided as these drugs may worsen the bleeding tendency associated with some of these infections Patients may receive antipyretic preparations to deal with these symptoms if dengue is suspected.
NURSING DIAGNOSIS Date: July 13, 2009
RATIONALE Definition:
NURSING INTERVENTIONS 1. Monitor vital signs
RATIONALE -decreased pulse pressure and blood pressure may signifies bleeding
EVALUATION Goal met
Risk for injury related to decreased platelet count
At risk of injury as a result of environmental conditions interacting with the individual's adaptive and defensive resources.
Objective cue: Infection of dengue virus (flavivirus) through the bite of Aedes aegypti mosquito
2.Administer medication and infusion using "5 rights" system (right patient, right medication, right route, right dose, right time)
-to make sure that the infusions and medications are administered to the exact patient
The client was freed from any physical injury and managed and minimized complications of decreased platelet as evidenced by:
Decreased platelet count of 60x10^g/L
Goals: The client will be free from any physical injury and manage and minimize complications of decreased platelet. Dengue virus attack lymphocytes and lymph tissue
3. Inform and educate client regarding all treatment and medication
-to make the client aware to the medication and treatment
-The client don't had any physical injury -The client was freed from complications of decreased platelet
4. Discuss importance of self monitoring of conditions
-that may contribute to the occurrence of injury
-to avoid sever bleeding Platelet count and immune system response decreased 5. Monitor for any signs of bleeding and closely monitor the amount of bleeding which may
occur -to decreased any chance of physical injury
Risk for Injury

It's Unbelievable: Marlins Are 11-1
Deep breaths, people, deep breaths.Yes, the Florida Marlins have the best record in the MLB. Yes, we're 11-1.
Not to be a Debbie Downer, though, it's worth noting six of those wins come at the expense of the Nationals, who are shaping up to be the 2007 Dolphins of 2009 baseball. But we've also cleaned up against stronger teams such as the Mets and the Braves, so it's not a complete fluke.
Our next series kicks off tonight against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Their preseason odds of winning the World Series were 200-1, second in horribleness only to the Nationals. So thanks to the luxury of easy, early-season series, it's not totally unimaginable that we could see this streak continued to 14-1 or at least 13-2. However, the Priates have picked up series against the Braves and the Cardinals, so they won't be total pushovers. Then after that, it's back home to face the Phillies, who were tipped to have a strong season. So far, though, they're the only team this year that has lost to the Nationals.

Anam Cara, ~8B+, by Fabian Buhlby Björn Pohl - UKC Oct/2013
This news story has been read 3,217 times
Fabian Buhl has repeated Bernd Zangerl's Anam Cara, ~8B+, at Silvretta, Austria.
The 22 year old from Oberstaufen in the southern most part of Germany took advantage of good conditions just before winter arrives making climbing here at 2000m above se level impossible for many months.
he describes the problem as:
Sharp, powerful and short! It's a real boulder and I liked it a lot!
Earlier this year, Fabian broke his ankle but it has healed really well partly thanks to hiking a lot due to bad weather during the 1,5 months he spent in Colorado with Jimmy Webb & Co.
Next month Fabian will be part of the La Sportiva Sardinia Bloc Scouting, meaning he will be joining people like Nalle Hukkataival, Andy Gullsten, Michele Caminati and several more to go boulder hunting in the Gallura region on the north part of the island.
