GMC vehicles earn spot on Madden NFL 25′s roster

In the real world, the Super Bowl MVP gets a Chevrolet Corvette. Last year's MVP, Joe Flacco, took delivery of a C7 Corvette Stingray after leading the Baltimore Ravens to victory over the San Francisco 49ers.
In the video game world of the Madden NFL series, the Super Bowl MVP gets a 2014 GMC Sierra Denali. Why no Stingray in the video game? Because GMC inked a deal with EA Sports for the truck and SUV builder to be named the official vehicle of the football video game's twenty-fifth anniversary edition.
The new Sierra Denali will be joined by the Yukon, Acadia, and Terrain in game, with stadium promotions for the brand throughout the season. Yes, even when you're beating the hell out of your buddy who insists on playing with the hateful Cowboys, you'll be seeing commercials. (Hold your keystrokes, Cowboy fans. We're just kidding. Sort of.)
Expect to see plenty of other GMC imagery as well, with a "Never Say Never Moment of the Week" in-season feature that displays spectacular plays throughout the week's games. Madden NFL 25 will be available for both current and next-generation versions of the Sony Playstation and Microsoft XBox, and will arrive in stores on August 27. Scroll down for the press release.

You can set up the SSID, wireless channel, WPA key, router password
and network IP address range before sending to Atlanta. The only
setting that must be down in Atlanta is the set up for the Internet
service. If you know that the Internet service would be based on DHCP
(usually for cable TV style Internet service) you can set up this easy
anywhere else.

So now that Connectathon is over, what was the biggest highlight?
I would have to say having the first successful demonstration of pNFS (courtesy of Sun and Netapp). The three amigos from Sun (Sam Faulkner, Lisa Week, and Alok ) ran a Solaris client against Netapp's server (Garth Goodson). Garth later on gave a talk about it. The basic premise is for very large files, having only one server can cause us to run into bandwith limitations. Striping a very large file across several (in the presentations there are ALWAYS three) data servers, and then having that "layout" information passed back to the client via the meta-data server, and then all reads/writes are sent from the client to the data servers can solve the bandwith problems (and lets you stay in vogue with horizontal scaling).
The internet draft for pNFS can be found here.
Now Garth Gibson (and not Garth Goodson - heh) originally started coming up with a solution (mentioned here) and CITI actually had a workshop back in Dec 2003.
This demonstration used files/NFSv4 as the backend protocol to move the actual data (as opposed to just talking to the meta-data server). But you can easily see how the block people are excited to use their own solutions. And can also see how the cluster people are very interested in an open standard.
Ok, so its parallel... why should i care? To quote Goodson:"
This draft considers the problem of limited bandwidth to NFS servers. The bandwidth limitation exists because an NFS server has limited network, CPU, memory and disk I/O resources. Yet, access to any one file system through the NFSv4 protocol requires that a single server be accessed. While NFSv4 allows file system migration, it does not provide a mechanism that supports multiple servers simultaneously exporting a single writable file system.
This problem has become aggravated in recent years with the advent of very cheap and easily expanded clusters of application servers that are also NFS clients. The aggregate bandwidth demands of such clustered clients, typically working on a shared data set preferentially stored in a single file system, can increase much more quickly than the bandwidth of any server. The proposed solution is to provide for the parallelization of file services, by enhancing NFSv4 in a minor version."
So now it works, excellent. Sam, Lisa, Alok... when are we going to get perf numbers? heh
Lastly, i'd like to point out that this shows the beauty behind NFSv4. This is exactly what v4 was designed for, openness and enhancements (via minor versions) where everyone can play. We can build upon the base of the protocol to solve interesting problems instead of redoing the (un-interesting) work every five or ten years.

Technical Abstract: In May 2010, a soil moisture sensor intercomparison study was begun in Marena, Oklahoma. This effort is designed to serve as a foundation for incorporating diverse soil moisture networks into the Soil Moisture Active Passive (SMAP) Calibration and Validation program. Various soil moisture sensors, which are currently used throughout the world, were deployed throughout a rangeland pasture to collect a long term soil moisture time series and develop a qualitative assessment of how these sensors can be merged into a single global soil moisture database for satellite remote sensing calibration and validation. Regular sampling of gravimetric soil moisture is conducted to determine an absolute ground truth for the electronic time series. Initial results include an assessment of the ease of deployment and installation, as well as the sensitivity to significant precipitation amounts.

Watching Beyonce swing her hair around during the Super Bowl halftime show, my mind started to wander over to another dynamic and extremely different musician I had seen recently. Reflecting on Kathleen Edwards' performance last week at Brighton Music Hall, I came upon a version of the same question I ask myself about most of my favorite artists: Why isn't Kathleen Edwards more popular? I might append "in the US" to that as all of Canada will politely remind you that Kathleen Edwards and hockey belong to them.
Kathleen's songs are highly emotional, but not overtly autobiographical. She's pulled tragic stories from headlines, writing from the first person of a murder victim in "Alicia Ross." Tuesday from the stage she alluded to her depression and earlier in the week she had instagrammed a photo of a book she's reading on the topic. Where other artist's might capitalize on such personal struggles, either purposefully or accidentally, Kathleen is more guarded in the press than she is with her long-time fans. Salon ran an article when her latest, most personal album Voyageur was released in 2012 with the headline "Kathleen Edwards: This will be called my divorce album." The subtitle read, "In a Salon exclusive, the singer discusses her brave new CD — and her new relationship with a Bon Iver heartthrob." Not once in the article did she ever mention Bon Iver or her divorce.
Popular American Songstress, Taylor Swift goes out of her way to leave clues fueling speculation about which celebrity her latest hit single is about. Her games lead to news outlets like The Huffington Post inviting readers to "Guess the man who wronged Taylor Swift." Beyond the scandalous appeal, listeners identify with Taylor's heartache and envy the public honesty that would have adverse repercussions in a normal person's life.
On her latest album, Fiona Apple went ahead and titled a song "Jonathan" after her ex-boyfriend Jonathan Ames. It reads like a personal, unfiltered parting letter she mistakenly brought into the studio on recording day. As much as I love Fiona Apple, she's cultivated (wittingly or not) the "sexy unstable woman" persona on and off stage. The music video for "Criminal," which showcased the scantily clad singer lounging in a house of hungover, drugged out partiers, was meant as an indictment of music videos selling heroin chic to kids. I think Apple gave her fellow teenagers too much credit. She later used her MTV Music Video Award speech as a platform to publicly denounce the imitation of such behavior. Sadly, her passion and lack of tact in her speech garnered more attention in the media than the idea she was trying to get across.
As someone who already has a very positive image in the press and public eye, Beyonce has been more successful in redirecting her spotlight. Soon after the recent presidential inauguration, it was revealed that Beyonce lip-synced the national anthem. During her press conference before the Super Bowl, Beyonce sang the anthem live to dispel rumors that she was incapable of doing so. As the applause from her performance died down, one reporter questioned the timing of publicity for her new movie "Life Is But A Dream,"asking "why now before the Super Bowl?"
The film includes information about aspects of Beyonce's life that she has kept private such as life with her new daughter and the miscarriage she had during a previous pregnancy. Beyonce slightly dodged the question answering, "it was time for people to get to know me." That may have been why she made the movie, but obviously the national anthem mishap and flashy Super Bowl performance were sparkly, controversial bookends for something that might not otherwise get such widespread attention: Beyonce's personal views of who she is as a person, mom, performer and artist.
I prefer to think it is only Kathleen Edwards' refusal to sensationalize her personal life that keeps her under the American radar. Realistically, that's like being dumbfounded that I haven't won the lottery yet. A lot of luck goes into popular success in the music business. There are also tiers to fame and notoriety. If Kathleen Edwards had dated Jake Gyllenhall and written a song about it instead of spending time and attending the Grammys with "Bonny Bear," more people might have heard of her.
It is insightful writing like this that will help to popularize artists like Edwards. Now I know about her.

IEA Stock Release Had Bigger Effect than Most Realize
The International Energy Agency's surprise release of 60 million barrels of oil from emergency stocks last month drew plenty of critics.
First, it was said to be too radical a move from the agency as the oil price plunged. Later, as the oil price rebounded, it was criticized for being ineffective.
Although the price of oil today is back above its level before the stock release, a number of other important price indicators suggest that the IEA's action was quite successful in the more subtle ways that the agency always claimed to be focusing on.
The IEA always argued that the stock release was not aimed at lowering the price of oil benchmarks like Brent crude. Rather, the agency said, it was plugging a gap in the supply of light, sweet crude oil that was caused by the shutdown of Libyan exports by the civil war.
Refiners, particularly in Europe and the U.S., favor this kind of oil to manufacture gasoline and diesel. The loss of Libyan supplies was a problem in itself, but it also pushed up the price of similar light crudes from Nigeria so high that many of these companies could scarcely turn a profit refining it.
Furthermore, as demand rises with the summer driving season, the IEA said there was a danger of genuine shortages of this kind of oil.
In these respects the stock release, two-thirds of which was light crude, has been a success, the IEA says. Narrowing premiums for light crude, higher refining margins and an increase in light oil supplies available to Asia show the release has had the desired effect, said the IEA's director of Energy Markets and Security, Didier Houssin.
Nigerian crude prices have indeed come under pressure. The premiums at which major Nigerian crude grades Bonny Light and Qua Iboe sell to benchmark Brent crude have fallen as low as $1.70 a barrel, from $2.50 a barrel last month, according to oil traders. Prices may fall even further, as traders say several oil cargoes to be shipped in August remain unsold.
Asia has also benefited. The gap between the price of Saudi Light crude and Saudi Heavy crude when shipped to Asia has shrunk from $5.65 a barrel in June to $3.25 a barrel in August, the kingdom's official selling prices show.
These may look like small price shifts when oil is trading above $100 a barrel, but they make a big difference to refiners that operate with wafer thin profit margins, so can increase the incentive to produce more fuel.
The price of Brent crude had rebounded above its pre-stock release level within a week, but the U.S. national average gasoline price remains below its level a month ago, according to AAA data.
Whether this effect will be lasting is another question. The IEA stock release it set will last only 30 days, after which the agency expects increased oil production from Saudi Arabia to fill the Libya gap. However, not everyone believes Saudi Arabia is quite up to the job.

A short time ago1 I gave a preliminary account of the use of an impermeable coating designed to prevent the escape of the epithelium and sebaceous gland secretions from the skin during operation, and the entrance of blood, pus, etc., into the crevices of the skin. It consists, briefly, in the application of a 4 to 8 per cent. solution of gutta-percha in benzine or acetone—the benzine solution for use on the hands, the acetone for surface applications at and around the field of operation. The 4 per cent. benzine solution has proven the best for wear. The benzine solution, however, dries more slowly than the acetone; it requires one and a half to two and a half minutes for it to thoroughly evaporate. If the rubber has not been destroyed by heat or sterilizing processes, the parts will have a decided adhesive tendency. If the solution is not good

Well, if you're gonna take a whole month to post, you'd better come back with something as fabulous as this Caramel Apple Cake! September is always a super busy time — getting the kids back to school, soccer, PTA, scouts, lots of football to watch, etc. In the meantime, Ashley's no help at all this fall, she just started law school at Brooklyn Law! (How cool is she? But busy, very busy.) Anyway this cake was worth the wait, promise! The recipe is slightly adapted from Baked Explorations, which we trust fully. The cake was so moist and dense, it could have been enjoyed with no frosting at all (not something I say often). And wow, the Caramel Buttercream! It reminds me of my absolute favorite frosting– super fluffy and creamy, but not sickly sweet. If you don't care for nuts, the peanuts on the outside of the cake are optional, but the added crunch is just to die for, in my humble opinion. You can make cake this as simple or as complicated as you'd like. I halved the recipe, it's supposed to be three layers (I did post the original recipe with 3 layer proportions), so it is definitely a dessert to share. I actually served my whole family and still had almost half the cake left to give away! I also cheated and used Trader Joe's salted caramel (this stuff is even better than sweetened condensed milk by the spoonful). If you have a free afternoon and baking is your pleasure, take all the time you need to make the caramel from scratch.
Recipe adapted from Baked Explorations by Matt Lewis & Renato Poliafito
For The Apple Cake
4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoons cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1 1/2 cups (3 sticks) unsalted butter, cut into 1-inch cubes, at room temperature
2 1/2 cups sugar
2 large eggs
4 cups unsweetened applesauce
Preheat the oven to 325-degrees. Butter three 8-inch round cake pans, line the bottoms with parchment paper, and butter the parchment. Dust the parchment with flour and knock out the excess flour.
Sift the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, allspice, and cloves together into a large bowl. Set aside.
In the bowl of a standing mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter until creamy, about 4 minutes. Add the sugar and beat until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the egg and beat until combined.
Add the flour mixture to the mixer bowl in three parts, alternating with the applesauce, beginning and ending with the flour mixture. Scrape down the bowl, then mix on low speed for a few more seconds.
Divide the batter among the prepared pans and smooth the tops. Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, rotating the pans halfway through the baking time, until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean. Transfer the pans to a wire rack and cool for 20 minutes. Turn the cakes out onto the rack, remove the parchment, and let cool completely.
For The Caramel Sauce
Yield: about 2 cups
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/4 cup corn syrup
1/2 cup (1 stick) of butter, softened, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 ½ cups heavy cream
In a medium saucepan with high sides, combine the sugar and corn syrup with 1/2 cup water. Stir the mixture gently so you don't slosh any of it up the sides of the pan. Turn the heat to medium-high and continue stirring until the sugar dissolves. Increase heat to high, stop stirring, and allow the mixture to boil. Once it begins to turn a rich caramel color (if you don't want to eyeball it, take the caramel to 300 degrees F on a candy thermometer), remove it from the heat, add the butter and cream, and stir until combined.
You can save the caramel sauce, tightly covered, in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Let it come to room temperature before using it on cakes, ice creams, or quick breads.
If you want a warm topping, heat the caramel sauce in short bursts in the microwave or in the top of a double boiler.
For The Caramel Buttercream
1½ cups sugar
1⁄3 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups whole milk
1⁄3 cup heavy cream
1 1/2 cups (3 sticks) unsalted butter, soft but cool, cut into small pieces
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1⁄3 cup plus 2 tablespoons Classic Caramel Sauce (see recipe above), at room temperature
In a medium, heavy-bottomed saucepan, whisk the sugar and flour together. Add the milk and cream and cook over medium heat, whisking occasionally, until the mixture comes to a boil and has thickened, about 10 to 15 minutes.Transfer the mixture to the bowl of a standing mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on high speed until cool. Reduce the speed to low and add the butter and vanilla; mix until thoroughly incorporated. Increase the speed to medium-high and beat until the frosting is light and fluffy.Add 1⁄3 cup of the caramel and continue mixing until combined. If the frosting is too soft, put the bowl in the refrigerator to chill slightly, then beat again until it is the proper consistency. If the frosting is too firm, set the bowl over a pot of simmering water and beat with a wooden spoon until it is the proper consistency.
Place one of the cake layers on the cake base and level off the top. Put a thin layer of caramel sauce on the layers and then spread caramel buttercream on top. Next, add another layer of cake and level and frost as you did with the first layer. Trim the top of the last layer and then place it on top of the cake bottom side up. Spread a very thin layer of frosting over the entire cake (crumb coat) and place the cake on the fridge for 30 minutes. Remove the cake fro the fridge and use the remaining frosting to ice the top and sides. Use the remaining caramel to drizzle over the top. Add chopped peanuts, if desired.

Charles Gounod (1818-1893)
Gounod was one of France's premiere composers, standing alongside Jules Massenet and Jacques Meyerbeer. Born in 1818, he won the prestigious Prix de Rome before he was 20. But during his studies in Rome he focused not on the composition of opera, but on sacred music. Indeed, throughout his life, Gounod was fascinated with religious music. In 1843, he returned to Paris and took the position as organist of Mission Etrangères. Later that year he wrote the mass "Messe Sollennelle," which launched his reputation as a noteworthy composer.
In 1851, Gounod wrote his first opera Sapho, but it took another 8 years for Gounod to produce his first great opera, Faust. Based on a classic German legend, the character of Faust makes a pact with the Devil. The tale has received treatments from many of the world's greatest artists: musical works by Hector Berlioz and Franz Liszt, etchings by Rembrandt, numerous ballets, and literary works by Christopher Marlowe, Thomas Mann, and Goethe. It is the first part of Goethe's play that serves as the model for Gounod's opera.
Gounod's other great works include an improvisation of a melody over the C major Prelude from J.S. Bach's The Well-Tempered Clavier. In 1859 Gounod set the words of Ave Maria to this melody, resulting in his composition Ave Maria, a setting that became world-famous. He also wrote Inno e Marcia Pontificale, now the official national anthem of the Vatican City.

Paris, April 23 (No.2001-61) -
On the occasion of World Press Freedom Day, celebrated on May 3, United Nations
Secretary-General Kofi Annan, UNESCO Director-General Koďchiro Matsuura and UN
High Commissioner for Human Rights Mary Robinson issued a joint message.
Below is the full text of the
"A free press is one of the
most essential components of a democratic society, which in turn is a
prerequisite for sustainable social and economic development.
"This fact has become more
and more widely understood and accepted in the ten years since 3 May 1991, when
African journalists gathered in the Namibian capital, Windhoek, for a regional
seminar on promoting independent and pluralist media. The Windhoek
Declaration became the first in a series of commitments, region by region, to
uphold the freedom of people everywhere to voice their opinions, and
their access to a variety of independent sources of information.
"Since 1991, the press in
many countries has become more independent and pluralistic. The airwaves have
been liberalised. Journalists and others working in the media have become more
professional. And, thanks to the Internet, more and more people have gained
direct access to the means of mass communication. These changes have helped to
establish and strengthen democracy in many countries, by enabling citizens to
make their voices heard and so to play a part in decisions that shape
their own lives and the future of their countries.
"Yet freedom of expression is
always fragile, and can never be taken for granted. In many parts of the world
today it is threatened by political, economic, financial, military, religious or
even criminal interests. Journalists whose work challenges such interests are
liable to suffer intimidation, violence, exile, prison, and even execution or
simple murder.
"Meanwhile, many ethnic and
religious groups - usually minorities - are prevented from using the media to
communicate their views or express their identity.
"Experience has shown that
even the most heinous regimes can gain popular support if they manage to muzzle
the media, or to manipulate it to arouse fear and hatred among their citizens.
Free, independent and pluralist media have an indispensable role to play in
rooting out racism and xenophobia. We hope that this
year's World Conference Against
Racism, Xenophobia, Racial Discrimination and Related Intolerance will find ways
to strengthen free media throughout the world, and will remind media
professionals of their vital role in educating the public and fostering peace
and mutual respect among peoples.
"On this World Press Freedom
Day 2001, we call upon decision-makers at all levels to do whatever they
can to ensure that journalists can pursue their work unhindered and undeterred,
so that people throughout the world can benefit from the free flow of ideas.
"We urge journalists to
adhere to the highest standards of their profession; to refuse to lend their
skills to hate-mongering; and always to uphold the principle of impartiality.
"And we urge the
international community as a whole to defend and protect a fundamental human
right - the right to receive and impart information free from censorship,
through any media and regardless of frontiers.

Share the post "Left-Hook Lounge: Does Mayweather's Legacy Hold Up in History? Will Chavez Jr./Canelo Happen? What next for Floyd?"
Javier R. (Ontario, CA): Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. recently had some critical comments about Canelo. I know the problem between Goldenboy Promotions and Top Rank will prevent us from seeing this fight, but if it were to happen, who do you see winning?
Vivek W. (ESB): Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez currently fights at 154lbs and Chavez has struggled to make weight at 160. I wouldn't rule out a move to 160lbs at some point for Canelo, but will that move come before Chavez Jr. is forced to move up in weight? I think it's really tough to say. Focusing on the question itself, if the stars do align and these two men somehow square off, personally, I don't think it's a very easy night for Canelo. I know that all the Mayweather detractors will suddenly try to take away from his ability and say that he's "young" and "untested", or "not as good as the media made him out to be". But the reality is that the kid simply loss to not only the best in this era, but arguably the best in any era.
I think Canelo's skills and ability, as is, make him the best fighter under 160lbs. The experience he gained facing Mayweather on such an elite level is paramount, and to be quite frank, a showdown with Chavez Jr. is actually a few notches below. Canelo would be totally ready for this stage and I think those who don't want to believe now will have several reasons to do so in the aftermath. I really love the kid! He has shown adjustments and he aims to get better every time out. If he was able to nullify the skills of a good boxer like an Austin Trout, I see no reason why he can't defeat that rarely in shape and often unpolished Chavez Jr. To his defense, Chavez Jr. does display heart. But against a guy like Canelo, I think he'd simply be too slow and greatly outmatched. All that being said, don't plan for this bout. It won't be happening!
Robb N. (Dallas, TX): On "Left-Hook Lounge Radio" last week there was a point where you discussed Floyd Mayweather and where you feel he stands amongst other greats in history. Can you explain your position on where you feel he should be on that list, and why you feel he shouldn't have to prove himself by going up in weight like Robinson and many others did?
Vivek W. (ESB): I don't subscribe to the mindset that a fighter has to go up in weight to prove anything like many fans and media seem to. Particularly if it means going beyond their natural habitat. I don't think Mayweather's decision not to go up in weight should cause his legacy to suffer, and here's why: Lets start with a look at the sheer size of these men, which directly impacts their ability to accommodate a heavier frame. "Sugar" Ray Leonard was 5'10" with a 74 inch reach. Marvin Hagler, 5'10" with a 75 inch reach. Thomas Hearns was a lanky 6'1″, with a 78 inch reach. Floyd Mayweather is a modest 5'8″, (possibly 5'7″ without sneakers on); with 72 inch reach, and on his heaviest day, a whopping 148lbs.
Not one of these men walked around under 160-170lbs between fights. Not one. They were much bigger men who could get down in weight, similar to what we see with men like Margarito, Chavez, and beyond. Mayweather has NEVER entered the ring above 152lbs. EVER. When we take a look back in history even further, the name "Sugar" Ray Robinson emerges. Was he deemed in such a great light because of results rendered at a height and size comparable to Mayweather's 5'8″? Nope! He stood 6'ft tall. When we look at each of these men, what's clear is that they're all much bigger. Both in size and dimension (reach, etc).
And relative to Robinson's legacy, there's been so much talk about him being able to move up in weight through the middleweight realm and perform such heroics. But one thing no one ever brings up is the fact that Robinson, (who had 200 fights), and those in his era fought as much as 4 times in a given month. That was possible only because fighters in that era didn't have to trim down to make weight. These men all fought at their natural weights. And when they fought someone in a weight class above their own, they basically performed the equivalence of what we see every fighter in the sport today do. Which is face opponents 10-15lbs heavier than they are on the actual fight night.
This is why I hold true to the notion that Mayweather has no moral obligation to fill to anyone by going up in weight. For them, they faced a man who was roughly 15lbs heavier and it was considered miraculous. For Mayweather, this happens every single fight. So by going up to middleweight and facing a fighter who weighs in at 160lbs, it would potentially result in facing a fighter who re-hydrates to as much as 178-180 or so on fight night. There's a reason behind the fact that once you get higher in weight divisions, there's more pounds between the classes. The Fly's, Bantam's, Feathers, etc., are separated by roughly 3 to 4lbs. When you cross that Welterweight limit, the separation goes from 6lbs, to 8lbs, to 25lbs (LHW – Cruiserweight), and beyond!
It was designed that way because the heavier these men get, the more impact they're able to sustain, and the more impact their able to inflict. This is why I hold my position about him being potentially the greatest of all time. Some had better offense, defense, power, etc But overall depth-and-balance of ALL those attributes? If both men entered the ring at 147lbs, I'd like his chances any day. When we look at some of the men who defeated the great "Sugar" Ray Robinson, how many had the skills of Mayweather? That says he was hit by men who – all things being equal – would rarely land on Mayweather.
Beyond that, when we compare legacies between Floyd and the "Four Kings", aside from facing one another, can anyone name 10 top-tier contenders they faced that showcased the "higher level of opposition" many say Floyd hasn't faced (without taking a look at Boxrec)? Floyd has defeated a host of world Champions, and a ton of future and current Hall of Famer's to include Mosley, Hatton, Cotto, Oscar, Judah, Marquez, Gatti, and one day I assume Canelo, as well. Contrast that list with Duran, Hagler, Leonard, Hearns, and even Robinson (who finished with 200 career fights). I have the utmost respect for those men as legends, but I'm not one to discount this era because the previous one was more celebrated. "Hard to hit" is hard to hit in ANY era. Ring intellect and pure skills equal success any day, last I checked!
Brian G. (Aventura, FL): I've heard a lot of names tossed out as possible future opponents for Floyd Mayweather. When you look at who's out there from 160lbs down through 140, who do you think will emerge by next Cinco de Mayo?
Vivek W. (ESB): There's a ton of options at this point. The reality is that every last one will be a considerable step down from the one he just faced, if he stays below 160lbs. Going up to the middleweight limit could be pretty interesting, but I don't expect to see that, and neither do I think it's necessary. Of the list of names circulating, Khan, Garcia, and potentially the Marquez/Bradley winner seems more prominent. But I'd be quick to caution that this list means nothing, simply for the fact that we just don't know what to expect from Mayweather.
One possibility to consider that would certainly be a hit with the fans (contingent upon a solid performance from Amir Khan against Devon Alexander) would be a split feed card from two separate venues, pairing Canelo vs Cotto on the Cinco de Mayo under card of Mayweather vs Khan from Wembley Stadium across the pond. If all parties involved win their next fights, I don't see why this couldn't happen. Unless of course Martinez gives deep consideration to a Cotto bout – which has been discussed on a smaller scale. It's really tough to say how that will all unfold, but relative to Mayweather, I think the options are pretty slim.
What I find comical is that many are saying he should face Broner, yet the same people who want that fight shoot down the Garcia option, claiming that Broner isn't a good fighter, but Garcia is. Doesn't really make a lot of sense, but at the end of the day, whatever option he pursues will definitely be one to make a lot of dollars! That's about the only guarantee we have right now. Stay tuned.

Middle English: from Anglo-Norman French, in the sense 'a mint', variant of Old French bouillon, based on Latin bullire 'to boil'.
bulletin from mid 17th century:
The word bulletin derives from Italian bulletta meaning 'official warrant or certificate'—something like a passport today. The root is the Italian and medieval Latin word bulla 'seal, sealed document', the source of bill meaning 'written statement of charges' and of bull meaning 'papal edict'. The original Latin meaning of bulla was 'bubble', and this is the basis of bowl (Old English) in the sense 'ball' and ultimately 'basin' and of budge (late 16th century) which comes via French bouger 'to stir', from Latin bullire 'boil, bubble', bullet (early 16th century) originally a small ball, bullion (Middle English) from the idea of bubbling metal, and ebullient (late 16th century) 'bubbling'.

Stanford hopes to go further in the NCAA men's soccer tournament this year. The Cardinal finished 10-7-4 a year ago, losing to Washington 1-0 in the Round of 16.
It was Stanford's first playoff appearance since 2009.
Stanford hosts St. Mary's of Moraga on Saturday night at 7 in the Cardinal's second exhibition match, having defeated Cal State Bakersfield 1-0 in a no-count match Tuesday. Stanford starts the preseason Friday, Aug. 29 against Creighton in Omaha, Neb.
Third-year coach Jeremy Gunn is confident his side can make a determined run in 2014.
"We have a much greater depth to the squad this year ... which is awesome," Gunn said. "The returning group has continued to create a much stronger culture. Things are becoming more ingrained in the program."
Stanford, ranked No. 20 in the national coaches' preseason poll, was picked third in a Pac-12 preseason poll behind Washington and UCLA. Those two teams are ranked in the top 10 nationally, as is Cal.
"Last year, the Pac-12 was the strongest men's soccer conference in the country," Gunn said. "I don't see it changing this year. The level of competition is remarkable. It's hard for people to make predictions in this conference."
The Pac-12 has six teams -- UCLA, Washington, Cal, Stanford, Oregon State and San Diego State -- with each team playing each other twice. Stanford starts conference play at Oregon State on Oct. 2.
"It's a great challenge for the coaches to play each other twice," Gunn said. "You see results change because things change, such as tactics."
Stanford is led up front by sophomore striker Jordan Morris, a member of the U.S. under-23 team. Last year, Morris led all freshmen in the conference in assists (a team-leading seven) and points (19).
"Jordan Morris is an exceptional talent," Gunn said. "He has a wonderful attitude and is a grounded individual. He has abilities other players don't have. He's a major threat up front."
"I like scoring and like dishing off," Morris said. "I play with good forwards. Zach Batteer is a great finisher. Whatever is on at the moment."
Batteer, a senior, gives the Cardinal a nice 1-2 punch.
"Between Zach and Jordan, we have two forwards that every team in the country has to respect," Gunn said. "They're so powerful and so 'pacy.' They're always going to cause trouble for defenses."
The Cardinal was dealt a blow in the offseason when midfielder Aaron Kovar opted to leave after two seasons to join the Seattle Sounders of Major League Soccer. Like Morris, Kovar is a former Washington state high school player of the year.
Stanford will be buoyed by central midfielders Slater Meehan and Austin Meyer. Tyler Thompson also returns in the middle. Outside midfielders are solid with Bobby Edwards, who scored Stanford's goal against Bakersfield, and true freshman Corey Baird, from Escondido.
A lot of experience is in the backline for the Cardinal, spearheaded by captains Jimmy Callinan and Brandon Vincent.
"They're strong defenders who read the game the right way," said Gunn of Callinan and Vincent.
"We put in the work during the summer," Callinan said. "It's all coming together now. I hope we can get farther this year. We have the talent to do it."
Other experienced players on whom Gunn can rely defense include Brian Nana-Sinkham and Tomas HIllard-Arce.
There will be a serious battle for the starting goalie position between sophomores Andrew Epstein and Nico Corti. Gunn hopes to name a No. 1 goalie by next week.
"I would like to make a decision on a starting keeper so they know where they stand," Gunn said. "Normally, we want to create a bit of continuity."
Stanford's first home match is against San Jose State on Sept. 6 at 7 p.m. That starts a run of five straight home contests, including a match against No. 18 UC Santa Barbara on Sept. 9.
"Every game we played with the top teams last year was competitive," Morris said. "We think we're better this year. We go into every game thinking we can beat this team."
Gunn said fans won't be disappointed if they come to watch his club's brand of soccer.
"We like to call it 'power soccer,' " Gunn said. "We're strong, physically, defending as a unit. We have a desire to score goals. We look to attack. We don't like to play at a slow tempo because I find that less exciting. I want fans to come out and watch action."

William Kurelek, CM (March 3, 1927 — November 3, 1977) was a Canadian artist and writer. His work was influenced by his childhood on the prairies, his Ukrainian-Canadian roots, his struggles with mental illness, and his conversion to Roman Catholicism.
William Kurelek was born near Whitford, Alberta in 1927, the oldest of seven children in a Ukrainian immigrant family: Bill, John, Winn, Nancy, Sandy, Paul, Iris. His family lost their grain farm during the Great Depression and moved to a dairy farm near Stonewall, Manitoba. He developed an early interest in art, which was not encouraged by his hard-working parents. He studied at the Ontario College of Art in Toronto and at the Instituto Allende in Mexico, but was primarily self-taught from books.
By his mid-twenties he had moved to England. In 1952, suffering from clinical depression and emotional problems, he admitted himself into the Maudsley Psychiatric Hospital in London. There he was treated for schizophrenia.[2] In hospital he painted, producing The Maze, a dark depiction of his tortured youth.[3] His experience in the hospital was documented in the LIFE Science Library book The Mind, published in 1965.
He was transferred from the Maudsley Hospital to the Netherne Hospital, where he stayed from November 1953 to January 1955, to work with Edward Adamson (1911–1996), a pioneer of art therapy. At Netherne he produced three masterpieces - Where Am I? Who Am I? Why Am I? (donated to the American Visionary Arts Museum by Adamson at its inauguration in 1995), I Spit On Life, and A Ball of Twine and Other Nonsense. In 1984, when the Adamson Collection was exhibited as Selections from the Edward Adamson Collection, at the Art Gallery of Ontario, Adamson donated to the Ontario Psychiatric Association a large pencil drawing by Kurelek of one of the interiors of Netherne Hospital, showing a group of patients at leisure.
Originally Ukrainian Orthodox, and briefly a professed atheist, Kurelek converted to the Roman Catholic Church in 1957. He painted a series of 160 works on the Passion of Christ, and a series of 20 depicting the Nativity as if Christ had been born in various Canadian settings: an igloo, a trapper's cabin, a boxcar, a motel. He maintained a cottage near Combermere, Ontario, where he got his inspiration for a book of paintings entitled The Polish Canadians, and was a friend of the nearby Madonna House Apostolate.
In 1959 he moved to Toronto, where he wrote and illustrated a series of children's books, several of which have become modern classics.[4] In 1974 he illustrated a new edition of W. O. Mitchell's Who Has Seen the Wind.[5] He won the Amelia Frances Howard-Gibbon Illustrator's Award for A Prairie Boy's Winter in 1974 and A Prairie Boy's Summer in 1976. He was made a member of the Royal Canadian Academy of Arts.[6] In 1976, he was made a Member of the Order of Canada. He visited Ukraine in 1970 and again in 1977, posthumously publishing To My Father's Village. He died of cancer in Toronto in 1977. His archives, and a substantial body of his work, including the Passion series mentioned above, are held at Niagara Falls Art Gallery and Archives Canada.

PIKEVILLE, Ky. – Junior forward Brogan Conley turned in her second double-double in 18 hours to lead the University of Pikeville past Virginia Intermont College 83-55 Saturday afternoon at the UPIKE Gym.
The win was Pikeville's fifth in six games and, after an 0-4 start, drew the Bears even at 5-5 on the season. They were led by Conley's 16 points and 13 rebounds to go with four assists for a team with 28 helpers on 32 baskets for the day.
Virginia Intermont, however, fell below break-even at 6-7 on the season.
The Bears jumped out to an early lead and never looked back. Freshman Peyton Wright had five points as her team jumped out to a 7-0 lead in the first 2:14. The edge reached double figures for the first time with 15:51 left when a three-point shot by junior Callisha Johnson pushed it to 14-4.
Pikeville closed out the half by hitting 51.5 percent overall and 46.7 percent from the arc. That, combined with holding the Cobras to 36.7 percent shooting, allowed the Bears to lead 44-30 at recess.
It was more of the same in the second half. While the Cobras pulled within 14 in the middle of the half, Pikeville led by as many as 33 two times late in the game before the margin settled at 28.
Senior guard Sally Roberts had 12 points to follow Conley, while freshman Peyton Wright had 10 points and five rebounds. Sophomore Christin Haney had six assists to match her point total.
The Bears were dominant on the glass again, winning that battle 50-33 thanks to 18 offensive boards.
Virginia Intermont was led by sophomore Rainey Story, who came off the bench for 15 points and five rebounds, tying for top honors there as well.
Junior Kayla Orrick followed with 12 points and five rebounds while sophomore Radvile Autukaite tossed in 11.
The Bears will now enjoy nine days off to finish exam week and prepare for Alice Lloyd College. The Bears and Lady Eagles will meet on Monday, Dec. 17 at 4 p.m. at the East Kentucky Expo Center.

Was he full of it? Well he was pretty convincing.
The actual project goal was balloon reconnaissance of the Soviet Union. The entire subject is extensively covered in an excellent book by historian Curtis Peebles (Peebles 1991).
The Real Roswell Debris
We've always suggested that UFO researchers should be looking at The United States Navy, instead of the Air Force, as the source for useful UFO information. The Office of Naval Research, which began working with balloons for atmospheric flights in 1946, and created Project Helios which morphed into Skyhook, which produced the balloon sighting that killed Captain Thomas Mantell. Helios conducted various flights from around the country. The Air Force's Project Moby Dick used much of the Navy's groundbreaking Helios research to send aloft balloons of its own prototypical creation, most in and around Holloman Air Force base in New Mexico. The actual venue for the balloon research was The Balloon Test Squadron at the Holloman Air Development Center One of those large, polyethylene balloons came down in Roswell's backyard in July 1947, providing debris from its gondola payload that Mac Brazel collected, in part, and stored in a shed on the farm where he worked.
Concentration on the Mogul balloon project has diverted UFO researchers from the Moby Dick balloon crash and recovery. If researchers altered there obsession with Mogul and concentrated on the Moby Dick flights for the Roswell time-frame, they'd find enough evidence to suggest that the Roswell story is a confluence of balloon mishaps and egregious mythmaking by UFO researchers in 1978 onward. Project Moby Dick is the backdoor to the Roswell explanation. That it has been overlooked by UFO radicals is intellectually shameful.

Goldman Sachs Named Lead Manager for Genworth IPO
By Gillian Tan and Cynthia Koons
At least one team of equity capital market bankers have locked in a paycheck for 2012.
Goldman Sachs has been appointed lead manager by Genworth Financial Inc. for the initial public offering of its Australian mortgage insurance business, people familiar told Deal Journal Australia.
In November, Genworth management announced a plan to sell a 40% stake in its Australian business by pursuing an initial public offering in the second quarter of 2012, subject to market conditions and regulatory review and approval.
According to Citi Investment Research analyst Colin Devine, the IPO could be worth between US$800 million and US$850 million.
The bank has a long history with General Electric's spin-off Genworth, having floated in 2004. Goldman Sachs teamed up with CIBC World Markets and Scotia Capital to lead the 850 million Canadian dollar (US$831 million) IPO of Genworth MI Canada in 2009.
Genworth and QBE are the two leading mortgage insurance providers operating in Australia by market share.
It's a welcome boost for Goldman Sachs who are sitting at 7th in Dealogic's 2011 Australian ECM league table.

― Jean-Anthelme Brillat-Savarin, french politician and lawyer
Now I am sure that I could come up with some more cheesy sayings but I will stop myself here. The Daring Kitchen challenge this month was to make our own cheese. Lucky for me the failure of one can lead to the success of another.
I decided to try making mozzarella and all I am going to say about it is that I failed to make an edible version of it but did succeed in creating a mozzarella super ball for my 8 year old. Enough about the mozzarella, it cringe when I think about it...BUT that super ball did allow me to be wildly successful with making ricotta and that gives me some happiness.
Heating the whey left over from the failed mozzarella was the first step.
This is actually a photo from one of the 2 failed mozzarella attempts but my son was so into the making of it I had to include this very optimistic photo. Below is the actual ricotta dripping off the whey. My cabinet door handle came in very handy in the straining process.
Here is the finished product...ricotta cheese! Hooray!
Now what? We made some biscuits that included both the whey AND the ricotta. They were divine and the whey made them super fluffy. They were so good that a few days later we made whey and ricotta waffles, a fantabulously delicious way to use both of these ingredients. The waffles went so fast that I didn't have a chance to take any photos.
|Ricotta Whey Biscuits
Thanks to Swansan from Chef in Disguise for testing my metal in working with dairy products and as always, be sure to check out all the folks who did amazing things with milk at the Daring Kitchen.

Texas regents to meet, discuss, act on conference mess
It appears Texas may act soon on conference realignment.
The University of Texas System Board of Regents announced Friday that it will hold a special called meeting 11 a.m. Tuesday at Austin.
The topic, according to a news release, is "discussion and appropriate action regarding athletic conference membership."
Said University of Texas Men¹s Athletics Director DeLoss Dodds in a release: "Our goals and hopes all along have been to keep the Big 12 Conference intact. The league has been great for its members. We also have been honorable, up front and forthright with regard to our work and responsiveness to all the possible and now definitive changes to conference landscapes. We are entrusted with the responsibility of administering our university athletics programs. That requires careful examination of any and all options. It is both premature and inappropriate to speculate on what our UT System Regents will discuss at next Tuesday¹s meeting. But, as the dynamics of the Big 12 continue to change around us, we will utilize additional time to continue our work and evaluate our options."
With the future of the Big 12 seemingly up for grabs, the presidents and athletic directors of Texas and Texas A&M met Thursday to discuss the future of their athletic programs after Colorado accepted an invitation to join the Pac-10 and with Nebraska weighing a move to the Big Ten.
A person briefed about the discussions said the situation was "still fluid" and the Texas schools could stay in the Big 12. The person, who spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the situation, said everyone was waiting for Nebraska's expected announcement Friday.
If Nebraska also leaves the Big 12, other schools could follow. The Pac-10 is reportedly interested in inviting Texas, Texas A&M, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State and Texas Tech to form a 16-team league, while the Aggies could also head to the Southeastern Conference.
Texas president William Powers Jr., athletic director Dodds and women's athletic director Chris Plonsky met with Texas A&M president Bowen Loftin, athletics director Bill Byrne and other university system officials at an undisclosed location. Baylor was also represented in those discussions, but Texas Tech officials said they were not there.
U.S. Rep. Chet Edwards, a Democrat from Waco, the site of Baylor, urged Texas lawmakers to immediately hold public hearings on any potential move by the schools.
"These decisions are too important to be decided solely by a small handful of people behind closed doors without public input," Edwards said.
