4 hilltribe men nabbed in drug bust
Police in Chiang Mai have arrested four men they said belonged to a drug racket, seizing 600,000 methamphetamine tablets from one of them worth Bt180 million.
The suspects, paraded at a press conference at Don Mueang Airport in Bangkok, are Samran Saenluang, Phongsaphak Ruengkijsuwan, Somyos Laomee and Nopphorn Phanasirisomboon. The four, all Thai nationals from a hilltribe ethnic group, were travelling in two pickup trucks when they were stopped at a police checkpoint and arrested.
Speaking at the press conference, national police chief Pol General Priewpan Damapong quoted the suspects as saying they were hired by unidentified agents belonging to another hilltribe for Bt500,000 to drive both vehicles to a rendezvous in Chiang Mai.
One of the trucks carried a safe-deposit box containing an undisclosed amount of money. The four denied knowing that the box was kept in the truck before they began their journey.

Where is the drop down menu to be found? I cannot find it.
Is this version fully compatible with WP vers. 3.3.1?
Where is the documentation for this theme please.
Thank you,
How is posting the above link to your retail site a help to this question?
Sorry? That site has nothing to do with me. Neither does the theme but I did go to the trouble of finding out where the theme's documentation was available for you. Not sure why I bothered now...
on the demo site it looks like the menu uses the wp nav menu system. Check out appearance > menus and see if you have a menu created (if not make one). Then check if there are any theme locations available and set your custom menu to that location. Hopefully you'll see it. Oh an in case it isn't obvious put child items into your menu by dragging them under a top level menu item and then a little to the right.
Thank you rfair404. I appreciate the help. I'll try it again but I think I did this. Thank you.
To esmi- just so you understand, I do appreciate you making effort to help by steering me to one of the developers sites. FYI- It appears that this theme has split developers/versions in play.
When I came to this forum for help I was looking for specific guidance and yours just came from diverting appearing angle. My apologies for setting you off. I'm not quite sure though why you replied as you stated that the theme was of not interest or interaction to you- but none the less I appreciate the steer to their site. I had already gone to their site but could see no responses which is why I came here. When I did post there, I encountered the same non-responses as others.
It might be worth noting that the developers site is rife with non-responses to requests for help.
Something may be up with these people. I dumped the theme and moved on to another really nice one that does have active support.
Thank you for response and goal to be of help.

Challengers make it back on top in softball
Winning the Southern Cascade League title seemed like a pretty bold goal this spring considering the recent history of the Cascade Christian...
KLAMATH FALLS — Jake Perry's arm was the only thing that stayed warm when chilly winds and rainy conditions made playing baseball at Klamath Union High miserable Thursday.
Perry pitched a two-hitter for South Medford, which claimed a 5-1 nonconference victory in the make-up game.
That rough first inning began when Perry hit a batter. He later surrendered a two-out, unearned run to the Pelicans following one of the Panthers' two first-inning errors.
Things tightened from there for Perry, who threw all seven innings and allowed just two hits and one walk to go with seven strikeouts. The Panthers (9-4) also picked things up by playing spotless defense the rest of the way.
The Pelicans (2-8-1) led 1-0 until the Panthers took control with three runs in the top of the fourth. South added two more in the sixth.
Austin White went 2-for-2, drove in a run and scored for the Panthers, and Brady Breeze finished 2-for-4 with a run scored and a pair of stolen bases.
South Medford 000 302 0 — 5 7 2
Klamath Union 100 000 0 — 1 2 2
Perry and White; Hamblin, Mitchell (5), Balbin (7) and Vuggen, Alvarez (6). W — Perry (1-1). L — Hamblin. 2B — KU: Alvarez.
PHOENIX 24, CASCADE CHRISTIAN 11, 5 inn. — Amanda Skaff belted a grand slam and had seven RBIs to lead Phoenix in the nonconference rout.
Skaff also scored three runs for the Pirates (3-9), who brought home 13 runs in the second inning to break the game open.
Phoenix's Bailee Tally went 3-for-3, had three RBIs and scored five times, and Alyssa Wallack finished a home run shy of the cycle in a 3-for-4 effort that plated three runs. Wallack also scored three runs.
Alaina Thomson ripped a three-run double for Cascade Christian (0-8).
Phoenix 2(13)1 80 — 24 10 1
Cascade Christian 230 60 — 11 4 7
Scoggins, Hurd (3) and K. Maclennan, Wolfe (3); Weaver, A. Thomson (2) and Ratcliff. W — Scoggins (1-4). L — Weaver (0-5). 2B — P: Wallack; CC: A. Thomson, Weaver. 3B — P: Wallack, Wolfe. HR — P: Skaff.

Good bundle
on 8/8/2012
Camera and lenses are as expected and make the kit worthwhile. Included bag and blower are low quality products that add virtually no value to the bundle. Bag barely fits camera and long lens and sewn threads are loose all over. Still a good deal considering price of camera body and 2 lenses alone.

Forty six-year–old David Mank is behind bars after police say he checked into Community Hospital under a false name and social security number and tried to get pain medication.
A doctor told investigators she noticed the patient should have been 21 and thought Mank looked a lot older.
She said she also saw a social security number written on his arm.
When it wasn't adding up she called police.
Mank is now facing several charges including criminal impersonation, fraud and theft.
He's being held in the Mesa County Jail on a $75,000 bond.

Hi there - I'm blown away by the scope of this project and am very impressed how far you've got with it - it must be a nightmare to keep on top of, but you should be encouraged!!!
I recognise it's a long way from finished yet and I shouldn't be expecting perfection, I just wondered if there was anything I could do to improve the reliability of the CSV import functionality?
My first issue is that the CSV import seems to expect a value for the primary key of my table even though I've set it to "ignore field" in the interface setup and I can't seem to find a way around it...
Second (although it may be related) is that It doesn't seem to be recognising line breaks when attempting a bulk import - the last field of a row gets concatenated to the first field of the next row... I'm exporting my CSV from excel for mac - is there a particular format you've used which the app is more comfortable with?

I've been a Libertry shareholder 18-years and can tell you Malone will not over pay for a company. LYV is a good example. Liberty tried to up there stake with an offer of +25% it was rejected and Liberty backed off. My guess is 19 tops. If they walk stock drops hard. Good luck.
If Liberty drops their bid BKS shares will be cut in half and the company may end up in CH.11.How many of you here were buying shares in the $8.00 bracket? Truthfully? And that was as recent as the middle of April this year. Biff
Message for you boomer:BKS crawling back up. In another 4 bits it will be where I sold it. Doesn't that just chap your a$$.
Admittedly, I have been wrong in the past about the prospects of a buy out, which appear decent now. However, my bearish viewpoint is mostly driven by the fact that by itself, BKS would be unlikely to be able to compete with AAPL, AMZN...on the nook platform before they run out of cash. This outlook changes if Liberty is willing to backstop this company and keep on putting money into the operation until it is profitable. Conceivably we are talking about as much as an additional couple billion. So given that Liberty is essentially putting up an ante of 1B in a hand they will possibly have to sink a few more billion in before it possibly pays off, maybe they would be willing pay more at this point. However, Liberty is the strong party since they don't need this deal, while BKS really does. Therefore, it seems unlikely that any realized buy out price will be much higher than the bid. But I've been wrong before...
I have a feeling that they're going to walk away.
I think they have done that according to today's price action.

Mother's Day is around the corner! Writing about all of these amazing working mothers has certainly got me thinking about Mother's Day a little more than I normally would. It has made me want to tell my mother and mother-in-law just how much I appreciate them. Makes me want to snuggle up with the two boys who made me a momma. These DIY Mother's Day Flower Arrangement tips make giving flowers easy and inexpensive.
Flowers are such a beautiful way to say that you are thinking about someone. But, with prices starting at $50 for a nice small Mother's Day flower arrangement it is fairly cost prohibitive to many. I typically love giving flowers in addition to a small item that will last for some time or be a sweet treat for that person. Often spending $50 or more on flowers is just out of my budget. Thankfully, I know a few tricks to make a DIY Mother's Day flower arrangement look like a million bucks.
Use one flower (or one color scheme) in a low vase to make a simple, but beautiful, flower arrangement. It doesn't take much time to make an incredibly easy flower arrangement. Your mom will love it, I promise!
Floating one or two stems or buds of flowers in water is a cost effective way to make a statement. These don't last as long as some flower arrangements, but they are beautiful! The photo above shows a beautiful black lily floating with the bud of a white rose and some lily grass. If you would like some sparkle, try putting some sequins in your vase as well!
I love using unexpected vessels for flowers. Use bottles, cans, baskets, or boxes to house your arrangement. (You may need to put a small vase or jar in to hold the flowers with water, but the outer vessel can be anything really!) Get a beautiful serving bowl for a gift and put the flowers in it! Two gifts in one. We used picnic boxes for flowers on the tables at my sister's cheery Summer Wedding. Guests received their lunches in the same boxes so it was a lot of fun seeing them all together.
Last year we had a little Mother's Day tea on the coffee tables in our living room. I simply sprinkled the tables with the buds from a few flowers that I picked up at the store and snipped out of my yard. The table looked festive throughout the entire tea party. The buds do get a bit wilted over a long period of time. But, this was a short tea party so I was able to make a small, low arrangement in a jam jar after the party that I was able to enjoy for a few more days.
These DIY Cherry Blossom Branches will last for years and are so pretty to look at! A large vase with these sticking out would be a stunning gift.
I love real flowers. Sometimes when wanting to create a fun, whimsical look and to save money I'll combine paper flowers and leaves along with inexpensive real blooms.
Tissue paper flowers are easy to make, inexpensive and a lot of fun. Plus, they don't die!
Yesterday I shared tips on how to throw a great networking event, but what most people want to know is how to really wow at networking events. How do you make yourself stand out amongst the other people in attendance at a networking event? How can you move the shy inner person aside and share the inner rockstar with the room? Or for people like me, how do you decrease the anxiety enough to not come off as a hyperventilating, sweaty palmed super-fan when meeting someone for the first time?
After hosting many networking events with my networking group Portland Bloggers, and attending even more, I've come up with a few tips that help me get through a networking event fairly unscathed and with a lot of great connections.
(Big thanks to Portland-local event, food and family photographer Aubrie LeGault for taking these amazing photos!)
Before I get to the tips though, let me say that networking REALLY works. You've heard the saying before, "It's all about who you know!" While I don't believe that is what it is all about, I do believe that there is something to it. You don't have to know the most powerful player in town to find a connection that will lead you to your next career, opportunity or best friend. I've seen several people (including myself) create careers and land jobs or amazing opportunities from taking the time to network with others. It isn't just about meeting another person either, it is about showing what you can do once you have the opportunity, but making the opportunity to show what you've got arrive is all in the networking.
Okay, so you believe me that networking works. You've seen it happen or see where it might work for you. You are ready to take the next step and meet someone that you can really show what you've got, but how do you make that opportunity arrive? How do you make the most out of a networking event? Simply follow these easy tips and see all the connections you make!
There is no point going to a networking event that doesn't meet your needs in some way or another. Go to an event with the people you want to connect with or with people that can help you meet the people you want to connect with at some point. Thinking about your purpose and the type of people you want to connect with prior to choosing your networking events will help you narrow down your options and utilize your time and efforts in the best way possible.
What does that mean? It means that if you are a blogger looking to connect with brands you want to look for networking events that will put you directly with brands or with other bloggers in a similar niche with brand development in a place that you want your blog to be at. If you are wanting to collaborate on projects or learn from other bloggers then go to an event that puts you with bloggers who may want to do the same thing. Networking with people in an industry that you want to work is great for job connections!
The bloggers that attended the recent Portland Bloggers' event got the opportunity to meet other bloggers from a variety of niches and sizes. They were able to ask specific questions about monetizing, photography, design, marketing, content creation and more. It was a great event for bloggers looking to connect with collaboration partners as well as learn more about their craft. Personally, I found out about two new ad networks that I later looked into and signed up for!
How do you find your purpose? Decide what you want to accomplish with the networking event by examining your goals and the types of people you want to meet to help you get closer to your goals. For instance: I have a goal to finish my ebook and launch it in September. My last networking events I specifically went with a purpose in mind to connect and get to know bloggers who I feel would be great people to send my ebook to prior to launch to get feedback and possibly help promote. My purpose was to connect and get to know local influencers in a way that would let me know if they'd be the right person to help me reach my goal. In addition, my purpose was to help other bloggers reach their goals. Networking is not a one way street after all!
I can't even begin to tell you how many networking events that I've attended where people do not have business cards. I can't even count the times that I've made this mistake myself! They are printing, I forgot them, I didn't have enough on me… I've got all the excuses covered. If you really want to wow a room you need to have business cards that stand out. At the end of an event the people that talked to you probably talked to at least five other people with which they exchanged cards. Your card needs to stand out and make your memorable.
At our last event one of the attendees, Yvonne from Dress this Nest & King Cream, brought little individual ice creams to hand out to guests as they left. Do you think anyone forgot her business cards that day? Nope!
And, no, I don't suggest you figure out a way to bring ice cream to everyone at an event. But, I am suggesting you take time to have business cards that speaks about you in a way that people will remember that it was YOU that gave it to them. My business cards use the same color scheme and photos that are on my blog.
This tip goes for anyone who attends a networking event—not just bloggers. Thinking of yourself and what you have to offer as a brand and presenting yourself in a professional, unique way (as brands have to do) will set you apart from the crowd.
Three things you should know about your "brand" to help you make the most of networking:
At a networking event you will have to talk about yourself at one point or another. You will need to talk about yourself in a way that is authentic, concise and interesting. This trait comes to some people naturally. If so, kudos for you!
However, if you are like me and instead end up a rambling machine that doesn't ever come to the point and ends up talking about themselves WAY too much or giving a little too much information then you'll want to take care to not skip this step and PREPARE.
Thinking of yourself like a brand helps with this step a lot. Take the time to answer the above three questions, write them down, and practice talking about them with specific examples.
So, yes, you will need to talk about yourself at a networking event. And, yes, you'll basically be selling your "brand" to people you meet with the hopes of meeting YOUR purpose. However, it still isn't about you.
If you go to a networking event and only talk about yourself (a sin I've done on many occasions because I get so nervous that all I can do is babble about what I know) then you'll leave with no real connections and not one ounce closer to your goals.
However, if you go with the purpose of getting to know OTHERS and how the value that you offer can be beneficial to those people then you will come out of the networking event a total networking rockstar. You will find connections with people that can help you meet your purpose all the while helping them reach their goals.
This may seem incredibly nerdy, but I promise that if you do this then you will not regret it. I learned this at a recent marketing symposium from a Washington based marketing team called Delphis Creative. The owner of the marketing business suggested that as soon as you get out of every meeting with someone you connect with take the time to take notes on what you talked about, notes about the person and your thoughts about the connection. Take a little time as soon as an event is over (or heck, even on a bathroom break!) to write a few notes about who you met and what you've learned.
One cool way to keep track of all of these is to create Evernote notebooks for each event you go to, take a snap shot of the business cards you receive, and write your notes about the person saved with that card. Then, as you develop your relationship you can add to that note. You can also create some cross referencing with tags as you think of ways that you can provide value to that person, or ways they might be able to help you reach your goals.
Networking events do not end when the door closes and the last glass of wine has been dumped and racked for cleaning. Now days the events can go on and on with the addition of social networking. Take your notebook and purposefully connect with those people with whom you met and started a connection. Connect over social media or email. Just connect.
A big, big thank you goes out to all the awesome sponsors that helped make the recent Portland Bloggers' networking event possible. I appreciate the support of local Portland bloggers and hope that you do too! Please check out the websites of these awesome supporters of Portland blogs and connect with them online:

Good People: Broadway Hit Comedy-Drama by Pulitzer Winner
Our Price
Full Price
The haves and the have-nots come face-to-face and go toe-to-toe in the Tony-nominated, Broadway hit comedy-drama Good People. Written by Pulitzer Prize-winner David Lindsay-Abaire (Rabbit Hole), the play finds struggling single mother and "Mouthie Southie" Margie Walsh laid off from her dollar-store job and left with the reality that South Boston is providing her the same level of opportunity it always has: none.

I've had this blog for 2 and a half years now, and it never really evolved visually. So I decided to update it a bit, from scratch.
So that means a new theme?
Yay! Since the blog has been redesigned and you're probably reading this from your RSS reader you should definitively come by and see how it looks. And share some feedback, if you feel like it.
Can't remember what it looked like before? I've archived screens over at Flickr.
A consistent look
Updating the blog's look is good, but a complete rewrite is better; for consistency, fool! I used to have a different look for every single page: home, projects, blog and so on. No more.
Long story short:
"Before: all different. Now: all good."
I've been into grids since the day I learned about Bluepint CSS and Josef Müller-Brockmann, this is why I wrote Boks. And this is why this site now heavily relies on a grid structure. For grid freaks out there, click here to toggle the columns and see what I mean. Of course if you're on a small device (such as a phone) the UI is a bit different, but we'll get into that later.
Got a keyboard? Like shortcuts? Press that key!
I implemented a few keyboard shortcuts, from useful to useless. For example, if you liked the grid toggle, just press G (for grid) or W (for InDesign users) and you'll get the same effect. OK, that one is pretty useless.
But what about scrolling to the next article by pressing N (or the Down key)? And you guessed it already, P (or Up) will jump to the previous (inspired by AisleOne). You can also time-travel by pressing Shift+P (for Past) or Shift+F (Future). Handy? Yep.
Feel like you're stuck in the blog? Just press 1 to go to the Home page, or 2 for Projects. 3 is for the Blog and 4 is the About page.
My screen is smaller than yours
I discovered that technique on Hicksdesign and immediately thought I had to implement that: CSS Media Queries! The thing is pretty easy, you define your base CSS styles and then overwrite some declarations if the screen size matches some rules... I implemented 3 different layouts so the site should look good on about any device. Just resize your browser window and see things move. How cool is that?
My brother (and his iPhone 4) helped me test the retina-display-ready logo, too. Optional but cool.
More awesome
- I've always wanted to use Webfonts but never really knew where. Here it is, you'll find a nice OFL Sorts Mill Goudy TT on the home page. Thanks Google.
- Another tiny thing is the "Subtle Prompt". It happens when you use a keyboard shortcut or when you click the Contact link...
- If you're on a WebKit browser (Safari or Chrome) you should see custom scrollbars, styled with CSS. Yeah.
- I kind of don't support Internet Explorer. Yes, this IS an awesome feature!
- Trackbacks are now separated from regular comments.
- A blog post's author (my) comments appear differently, so you know who's the boss out there.
- LazyScroller: turns your keyboard keys into a navigation dashboard.
- SubtlePrompt: nice and gentle prompt for your sensitive users.
- Lblr: form input in-context labeler.
- ta-bg: allows a textarea's background image to scroll with its content.
I'll try to post docs/demos soon, I know this is probably a little bit rough right now...
What now?
Well, you tell me! I'm pretty happy with it, but things can evolve—just share feedback!

If you read one book, do yourself a favor and make it "Three Lives"To properly review this story, I have to tell the story of my reading. When I first started this book, I didn't think it would change my life. In fact, I would even say I was unimpressed. The first two paragraphs of the book are very negative and certainly aren't like anything I would normally read.

'Un-put-downable'!Srini exhibits a great talent to explain concepts and create healthy inquiry within the reader's mind, in an effortless manner. 3 lives is an easy-flowing insightful book with a well-balanced mixture of story, humour and wisdom.

Loved it...There are some (rather, very rare) experiences in life, which compels you to exclaim -"Wow, that was amazing...".

Truth revealedAfter reading the book i can say that the author is showing the other dimension of life. what the society is trying to make you understand about life for thousands of years, he highlighted the essence of it which helped me to understand and realize how simple is life and what i have to do. this my personal feeling.

A gem of a book !Friendship comes in many forms. I stumbled upon Srini Chandra on Twitter. I haven't spoken to him or met him in person. It is not often that someone comes up with a stunner like "3 Lives". What a debut! It is said first impression is the best impression - the cover of the book is stunning. As regards the content, I must say it is on par with "Siddhartha" by Herman Hesse. many many years ago when was I was young, I stumbled upon "Siddhartha" in a dusty corner of a lending library. It was a turning point in my life. That book left a deep impact on me. Now, several years later, destiny has thrown… (Expand)

Bliss in paperbackHow do you express an opinion, without being opinionated? How do you talk of morals without being moralistic? How can you discuss philosophy without being doctrinaire? 3 Lives does that, by tracing the journey of a soul across different lives, different epochs, different civilizations. In a style that is direct and simple, the narrative stirs the deepest cords that connect us all. Must read... and re-read.

All is wellWhen I started reading the book, it drew me in effortlessly. I finished reading the book in one go, from start to finish, in a couple of hours. It is an excellent read, and left me with a sense of "all is well" at the end of it. The book does a great job of taking on the big questions without taking sides. Questions like - What is happiness? How do I find it? Why is life unfair? etc. I especially liked the portions where the author brings out the struggle between science and spirituality. Is logic superior to emotion? Can atheists be happy? To some one in the middle like me, in the no man's la… (Expand)

Lucid Philosophical treatise on a fictional canvasPerhaps this is one of the rarest attempts of an author, that too in his maiden venture, to beautifully blend seamlessly, Eastern Philosophy and Western Thought, and that on a fictional canvas. No where one finds traces of Hindu Philosophy and the author most successfully achieves, avoiding the inescapable pitfalls of imposing such thoughts on the hapless readers.This bold attempt portrays the evolution of the human soul almost akin to Darwinian Evolution of the Species. Flipkart is niggardly in tying my hands to award only an insignificant and meagre 5 stars for this wonderful philosophical t… (Expand)

Magical! Amazing! Awe-Inspiring!This is easily one of the best book, i have ever read. It is truly a magical book. This books takes you out for a quest in search of Happiness. And eventually makes you understand real meaning of happiness. This book is a must read for everyone who ever struggled to find what happiness really is. It is a gem of spiritual writing. All those who have even slightest of spiritual bent must not miss amazing awe-inspiring work. Srini, I cant thank you enough for his magnificent book. You have actually put forward the gist of life, for the layman(like me) to understand. Thank you.

3Lives,in search of bliss by Srini ChandraRay Cordoza's evolution through the three lives is beautifully told in this book with sustaining interest throughout.Hatred to become love may take a split second or an eternity.Likewise,awakening of a soul.The essential message I got from this book is that "life is not a problem to be solved,but a reality to be experienced".How true are these words.The author says whom it will touch,he may not know.It has touched me.Let go.Take control.If one wants happiness,it is in the giving up of chase.Everyone is headed towards haapiness.It is inevitable.The question is 'how many lives it takes'.

Hi, when i bought my first computer (quantex), i was in high school, and preparing for college. I bought the computer in the first place because i will be a computer science major. The first issue i had and still have today is that my computer was shipped about 2 months later that it should of came, and since they say that they will give me the money back for the price change in teh system i got, i never received the 200$ i should of got back. That was the first problem... the next was on the first day i got my machine, the driver disk they gave me for my Guillemot 3d prophet wasnt working correctly, even the demo games on this disk would freeze my computer... very very annoying. Here i busted my a*s working at Giant as a bagger/cashier for 2 years saving up for a POS computer... I called them and they were no help whatsoever... I even wrote a letter and didnt get a reply. It seems to me that either my motherboard or graphics have a error or they arnt compatable with each other.... i always get the blue screen of death with VxD errors, which i believe have to do with the chipset i have, although i downloaded the latest one form viatech.com.... Currently i work at my college fixing comptuers, Northampton Area Community College and i have a vast knowlege of comptuer repair but my system is a hopeless cause... after months of tweakign i got my system down to maybe 4 error's a week if im lucky, i wanted to return my system the first week i got it, but from lack of information and support it wasnt gunna happen.. Now i have to wait till im outta college (3 more years) and get a descent job to get rid of the crap computer i have now that i paid $2500.00 for ---sigh---
Any way i can get some money back??
they havent kept their promise of refunding my money for late shipment and only once responded via email about a hardware problem i had, the response was mean and didnt help at all

I love to wear bracelets (especially the little elastic beaded ones) so I have a TON of them and had trouble storing them.
I bought a wood coffee-mug rack from the thrift store for about $1, sanded it, painted it with acrylic craft paint and a coat of acrylic varnish. (Although with all the bracelets on it you can't really see my paint job! LOL)
This is the result:
It would also work for necklaces and/or hair ties.

Also noted was the GPA's work in the area of social initiatives such as the prevention of suicide, unfortunately a serious crisis in Ireland particularly among young men.
Fronted by GPA chief executive and chairperson Dónal Óg Cusack, the GPA will continue to promote its work and the long-term sustainability of its Player Development Program in the US.
Assisting county GAA players with their off-field lives can help secure the future health of Gaelic games. The challenge for the GPA is to ensure that we can continue to deliver that support into the future.
There are many people we would like to sincerely thank for making this visit highly productive. None more so than Kieran McLoughlin of the American Ireland Fund and the members of our advisory group which had its inaugural meeting on Thursday. We look forward to their ongoing support and indeed the support of others as we continue on this journey.

Jhonny Gonzalez-Abner Mares: Post-Fight Report Card
By Cliff Rold
He never saw it coming.
Everyone else saw it for him.
There is always that moment of shock when a favored fighter goes down at the end of a genuine bomb. A brief freeze in time before shock turns to the thrill of a possible finish. Boxing fans know it when they see it, a fighter genuinely ready to go.
There is no other moment like it anywhere but combat sports. Team sports end when the clock runs out. Tennis ends when the requisite points are scored. Fight can end any time, and no one ever really knows when that will be.
Almost no one was picking Jhonny Gonzalez to resurrect his career, again, with a mammoth knockout. It was the sort of moment that makes this, inside its playing field, still the greatest sport of them all.
Let's go to the report card.
Pre-Fight: Speed – Mares B+; Gonzalez B-/Post: B+; B
Pre-Fight: Power – Mares B; Gonzalez A/Post: Same
Pre-Fight: Defense – Mares B; Gonzalez C-/Post: D; B
Pre-Fight: Intangibles – Mares A; Gonzalez B; Post: B; A
It's hard to get too carried away with grades here. The easiest thing to overrate in boxing might be the first round knockout. No matter how much skill a fighter has, no matter how deep a resume, the right shot at the right time can fell any man.
Fighters who never suffer knockout losses in challenging careers typically have great beards and certainly the requisite skill. They also have a little luck. Some of the best who ever laced gloves have been felled early in fights, and at points where they were already fairly established commodities.
Ezzard Charles had an early knockout loss after he'd already beat Charley Burley and Joey Maxim multiple times. Chiquita Gonzalez got dusted by Rolando Pascua. Those weren't first round losses of course. Jack Dempsey had one of those though on his way to the Heavyweight title though.
Mares isn't being compared to those ring immortals with any expectation he'll raise that high in history's esteem. It's just a matter of perspective for anyone who thinks something definitive was accomplished on Saturday. Given a run of wins that included Vic Darchinyan, Joseph Agbeko, and the outstanding Anselmo Moreno, this is the outlier.
Gonzalez has a way of creating those. In the pre-fight report card, it was noted it's hard not to lover a gunslinger. That's what Gonzalez has been with all the thrills that come with it. He hasn't been the most consistent man of his times, but he's been among the most professional and it was rewarded.
No matter how tough Mares's run has been, it was too dismissed that he was facing a man who has seen every bit his level of competition over the years but in greater total volume and for a lot longer. He's won and lost against men like Israel Vazquez, Toshiaki Nishioka, Gerry Penalosa, Fernando Montiel, and Hozumi Hasegawa.
Boxing fans and pundits largely saw the status quo, the recent past, and the odds and forgot that to a fighter who has seen all that, through good and bad, Mares is just another among many. He had the confidence to believe that if the right shot landed, Mares would go just like others before him.
Just like Gonzalez has gone when the right shots caught him.
Sometime next year, maybe we see a rematch. Maybe Mares rights his ship. Maybe Gonzalez will prove to have Mares's number. We know this: Gonzalez has made a career out of coming off the deck to get back into the title picture. Mares, to his credit, rose once and was trying to rise again when the fight was waved off.
Mares has learned a lot from the tough fighters he's faced. Time will tell what he learned from Jhonny Gonzalez.
Report Card Picks 2013: 34-20
Cliff's Notes…
Kubrat Pulev didn't look pretty, but he got the job done in becoming the first man to defeat Tony Thompson besides one Wladimir Klitschko in over a decade. Now comes the big question: is he a real challenger? He has the size, but Pulev doesn't appear to have the speed or, more importantly, power for the job. At least no yet. We won't know for sure until a fight goes down. Pulev-Klitschko (or Alexander Povetkin) looms as the Heavyweight fight of 2014…Leo Santa Cruz increasingly looks like the real deal. Just ask Victor Terrazas. Santa Cruz is still learning his craft, but the development curve is a joy to watch and Santa Cruz is going to be in a lot of good fights over the years.

BuzzFeed Bets: Will Tiger Woods Win The Masters?
Tiger Woos is back, having secured his first tournament win in two-and-a-half years last month. But for his star to truly be ascendant once again, he'll have to win a major, and the Masters has always been his bread and butter. Can he win? Jack and I disagree. One of us will be right. The other will humiliate himself in public. Everybody wins. (Plus Jack pays off last week's bet and sings Bieber.)
2. NO: Jack
This is a ridiculous question. Tiger Woods has won once in like two years. Why should we act like he's a favorite? That's insane. The old Tiger is not walking through that door, because the old Tiger is. He did look good when he won the Palmer a couple weeks ago, but he needs to do that more than once if he wants the "Tiger vs. the Field" treatment.
3. YES: Kevin
Look, betting on one guy to win a golf tournament is like betting on horses, except there are more golfers to choose from and you're probably wearing a visor when you do it. But I'm NOT wearing a visor right now, and I do think Tiger will win this weekend. Unlike the Woods of old, the new Tiger is a mentally fragile creature whose performance seems to depend on what's going on inside his head. That last win did wonders, and with Hank Haney's book out, he's got some of that anger fueling him as well. Barring a transcendent performance from Rory McIlroy — which, at his young age, only comes once every few tournaments, instead of every single week like it will not long from now — Tiger takes the Masters.
4. The Stakes: Loser does a dramatic reading of Jose Canseco's tweets in Madison Square Park
Results from last week:
Kevin wins! Vinny del Negro remarkably remains the coach of the Clippers. Jack had to sing Bieber's "Boyfriend."

Hello World,
I am tasked with recreating a website for the company I work for. My boss does not have the access information for the website design used currently, as it was outsourced. I am buying an entirely new wordpress theme: The Responsive Theme through WordPress.
I am wondering how we would delete the old website if I am making a new one, as we don't want 2 websites running at the same time.
Any insights would be greatly appreciated....thanks!!

I have the category and blogroll problem as seen as below (the message I get within writing a post:
WordPress database error: [Unknown column 'link_count' in 'where clause']
SELECT cat_ID FROM wp_categories WHERE category_parent = 0 AND ( link_count = 0 OR category_count != 0 OR ( link_count = 0 AND category_count = 0 ) ) ORDER BY category_count DESC
I had some trouble with the upgrade, it gave me database errors that I did not have enough right. I mailed my webmaster and he said he fixes my rights. I'm trying to upgrade again, (uploaded al the files etc.) When clicking the upgrade button, it gives no errors anymore, but it seems he is not doing the sql upgrade anymore in this process.
Do you have a way for me I can upgrade the database with the new 2.1 tables? Or do I have to alter some key in the database where it thinks I did not already updated the thing?

The Denver Broncos have agreed to terms with free-agent cornerback Tracy Porter, who picked off one of Peyton Manning's passes in the New Orleans Saints' win over the Indianapolis Colts in the Super Bowl three years ago.
Now, both will try to win a second Super Bowl together in Denver.
Porter spent his first four seasons in New Orleans, collecting seven interceptions, 37 pass deflections, four forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries. He also started six playoff games, and the highlight of his career is a 74-yard interception return for a TD in the Super Bowl that denied Manning another championship.
Also Thursday, free-agent receiver Andre Caldwell signed with the Broncos 48 hours after Manning's arrival.
