Galaxy S4 video recording stabilization gets tested in offroad conditions
0. phoneArena 17 May 2013, 03:12 posted on
The Galaxy S4 doesn't have the advanced optical image stabilization of some smartphones like the Nokia Lumia 920 and HTC One, but it does have some form of digital image stabilization...

Very poor quality, samsung galaxy s4 is a piece of crap.
Why is this guy and all the samsung fans wearing Lady's shirts ?
20. PapaSmurf (Posts: 10456; Member since: 14 May 2012)
If you set all bias aside and look at software + hardware, you would know the Galaxy S4 is one of the best devices in the world.
If you want to troll, go troll another website. Thanks.

There hipsters that will go against anything popular. Literally the only thing they can say about the s4 is that it has back plate made out of polycarb. Thats about equal to saying the HTC One has a button made out of plastic (very very low quality plastic)

Looks like another fail for Sfall ! lol
it's a feature! not a gimmick!!!

Samsung fans still rooting for the digital stabilizers. The HTC One and Nokia Lumia 92X must be laughing right now.
13. _Bone_ (Posts: 2154; Member since: 29 Oct 2012)
HTC and Nokia are laughing, Samsung is selling.
Now what?
14. polrt (banned) (Posts: 73; Member since: 04 Dec 2012)
Also, Hyundai sells more cars than Ferrari and Porsche.
Now what?
16. SleepingOz (unregistered)
Hyundai's cars are about 8 to 10 times cheaper than Ferrari and Porsche 's.
Flawed comparison, try again.. =]
17. polrt (banned) (Posts: 73; Member since: 04 Dec 2012)
You're right, so according to the results of this video also samsung devices should be 8 to 10 times cheaper.
26. Oxygen (Posts: 125; Member since: 29 Mar 2012)
First of all, these are smartphones not cameras. You do know that the s4 takes better pictures than the htc one and the lumia 920 in most cases, right?
19. _Bone_ (Posts: 2154; Member since: 29 Oct 2012)
Ferrari sales aren't affected by Hyundai, genius. HTC and Nokia could sell 10M of their flagship a month, only they can't and you know why?
... exactly. Because while they are laughing, Samsung is selling. Wasn't that hard to figure it out, was it Mr. bring a failed argument fella.
32. HDShatter (Posts: 1021; Member since: 17 Jan 2013)
Both are bad phones.
36. taz89 (Posts: 2014; Member since: 03 May 2011)
True but I think out of the 3 Samsung is the happy... They are laughing to the bank as for htc and Nokia hmm.. As for what's the best phone well the depends on the individual.. I like the s4 for its 5" screen and removable sd and my brother has the htc one for aluminium build...They are both great phones, can't say much about the lumia as I have never seen
One used one but have use windows and for me it's to restrictive just like how ios is.. I have always like symbian so android was the logical destination for me.. End of the day there are plenty of great phones out the.. Just pick what fits our need and don't see the point of bashing others just cause they prefer something else..
3. KingKurogiii (Posts: 5711; Member since: 23 Oct 2011)
oh yeah, the S4 has a form of video stabilization, not as good as the One or the Lumia but we're gonna dedicate a whole post to it anyway...*face palm*
10. dexter_jdr (Posts: 1163; Member since: 28 Jun 2012)
here's a more intense comparison.
33. HDShatter (Posts: 1021; Member since: 17 Jan 2013)
If you really care about the camera how about you just buy a DLSR and give up on the crappy sensors used in phones.
39. UrbanPhantom (Posts: 949; Member since: 30 Oct 2012)
If you really want performance, go buy an F1 racer, and give your up Honda Civic or Mini Cooper. Sorry, but I don't get your point!

oh so now the video capture also has blur? what gives?
9. Tsepz_GP (Posts: 987; Member since: 12 Apr 2012)
Very nice of Samsung to allow Nokia and HTC one little victory :) .The GS4 camera is great but Samsung clearly werent aiming to get any awards with it, after all, they use a Sony unit.
11. ama3654 (Posts: 295; Member since: 27 Nov 2012)
And it still takes much better pictures according to reviews in good light, considering that's what most people with their cameras.
18. Tsepz_GP (Posts: 987; Member since: 12 Apr 2012)
Exactly, I'm more than happy with it. If it gets beaten by two Camera focused smartphones then so what? If you are serious about your mobile photography then there's only two options, either the Nokia 808 PureView OR the Nokia Lumia928, both these have outdoor, indoor, and night shots VERY well covered thanks to their lenses, innovative sensors and Xenon flash units and they take incredible videos, both make mince meat of the Htc One and both are better than the Lumia920.
15. Igneel (unregistered)
You guys should check this one on GSMArena. Someone (CNET) compared all the current top dogs on their video stabilization tech. And of course, 920 and One is the winner.
21. PapaSmurf (Posts: 10456; Member since: 14 May 2012)
Using CNET as a source for technology is like using Wikipedia, trustworthiness = 0.

25. freebee269 (Posts: 539; Member since: 10 Aug 2012)
The video stabilization in this video it's on par with what I have experienced with my gs4. The digital stabilization is ok, but it crops the image in order to achieve that while still not being as stable as my Lumia 920. I don't think hardware stabilization should be put against software stabilization, but if you're comparing flagship phones then it's not Nokia's our htc's fault that Samsung or Apple don't use real stabilization technology so you have no choice. Other than anything to do with camera, I like my gs4 better than my Lumia 920.
27. Nephylim (Posts: 134; Member since: 04 Apr 2013)
Cool !
Not bad at all

There is no doubt that Nokia builts awesome camera tech. However, is that the ( no pun intended) is that the focus of a smart device? Nokia has the advantage with the camera tech. But the Os that runs its flagship devices is lacking right now. So you have a choice, which is the best thing we can have, if you want a device that is okay at communication but excellent as a photography then Nokia is it- If you want a device that excel at communication but okay as photography device then the Samsung Galaxy 4 is it.
41. UrbanPhantom (Posts: 949; Member since: 30 Oct 2012)
Nokia does offer another advantage that you failed ot mention: better audio recording abilities. That feature does not seem to have been widely discussed yet, but three HAAC microphones present inside the new Lumia 928 make it a compelling solution for audio/video purposes, as well as snapping still photos. The S4 is a great device with a large screen, plenty of external ports, and an expandable SD memory slot, but it's not the master of every technology...

38. gigaraga (Posts: 1454; Member since: 29 Mar 2013)
The footage shot by the S4 actually looks really stable...good job Samsung!
40. Trex95 (Posts: 905; Member since: 03 Mar 2013)
Still no phone beats 808 PV camera.
42. drkuthan (Posts: 42; Member since: 08 Mar 2013)
S4's video recording is better than lumia 920
There is a very good comparison of S4 vs others on the home page of phonearena
S4's total score (including all lighting scenes) passes iphone 5, htc one, lumia 920 and the xz
So if you can come up with an objective evidence ok but otherwise DON'T GO ON POSTING LIKE AN ..... 'S4 IS CRAP'
Before i owned htc one, XZ, iphone 5, note 2 an between them S4 is the real winner IMO and the best cellphone in the planet right now
As a last wor, I think some people here have real bad issues which needs urgent treatment

Yale finance professor Dr. Zhiwu Chen has done an excellent job of transforming academic research and rigorous mathematics into a practical investing tool. The valuation model combines 12-month trailing EPS, consensus analyst estimates, and the 30-year Treasury yield to come up with a fair value price for any stock. Then its forecast model uses common market trends such as momentum and price reversals, and runs simulations to determine the most probable price outcomes over three years. - Forbes
Note on the Models used to create the reports:
These company reports employ many proprietary models, which were adapted from innovative concepts in finance theory generated both in academia and from Wall Street practice. Each of the four models represents the state-of-the-art in valuation, forecasting technologies:
1) The Stock Valuation Model
2) The Stock Forecast Model
3) The Portfolio Advisor Model
4) The Portfolio Forecast Model
The Stock Valuation Model
The Stock Valuation Model was derived from the recent research and findings of Dr. Zhiwu Chen, Professor of Finance, Yale University, and his co-authors. The model is more sophisticated than traditional valuation models and outperforms its peers by employing a three-factor approach to stock valuation. Fundamental variables such as a company's trailing 12-month Earnings-Per-Share (EPS), the analyst consensus estimate of the company's future 12-month EPS, and the 30-year Treasury yield are all combined and used to create a more accurate reflection of a company's fair value. Armed with these framework features, the Model then paints a detailed picture of a company's fair value, which is represented by the model price.
The Stock Forecast Model
The predictive variables used in the forecasting models include both proprietary and well-established forecasting variables derived from credible financial research studies and publications. They use a distinct forecasting model for each forecasting horizon and every industry. The forecasting models capture, among other things, several important tendencies that stock prices consistently exhibit: Short-term price reversals Intermediate-term momentum continuation Long-term price reversals. They then apply the most advanced statistical/econometric techniques to ensure that the stock return forecasts are as reliable as possible. In addition, they have a realistic econometric model for assessing a stocks and a portfolios future return prospects. This econometric model involves running thousands of simulations to estimate the probability of a double in stock price as well as the probability of meeting and exceeding any given investment target by a stock or a portfolio of stocks.
The Portfolio Forecast Model
The Portfolio Forecast tool arrives at projections by utilizing forecasting models to estimate future returns for the individual stocks in a portfolio. After computing the future return forecasts for each stock, they then run thousands of concurrent simulations for all of the stocks in a given portfolio (subject to various econometric requirements). The thousands of simulated price paths created by this process form the basis for the Portfolio Forecast projections. Finally, the Portfolio Forecast tool calculates the most likely return forecast from the thousands of simulated outcomes.
The Portfolio Advisor Model
The Portfolio Advisor enables you to specify the following portfolio objectives: Maximize the chance of meeting or exceeding an investment target; Minimize the chance of loss; both of the above. Choosing the first option will prompt Portfolio Advisor to create an aggressive yet risky portfolio. Choosing the second option will prompt Portfolio Advisor to search for a conservative mix of stocks that will seek to preserve capital. Choosing the third option will prompt Portfolio Advisor to create a balanced portfolio that will seek to both maximize potential gains and minimize potential losses. Once you have specified an investment objective, Portfolio Advisor will utilize our forecasting models to estimate future returns for the individual stocks in your portfolio. Portfolio Advisor will then examine tens of thousands of possible capital allocation plans distributed across the stocks of your choice. From the results of these simulations, Portfolio Advisor will identify and display the most favorable stock allocation for your portfolio. Additionally, Portfolio Advisor will inform you of the exact number of shares to buy or sell of each stock so that the resulting portfolio will maximize your chances of maximizing gain, minimizing loss, or both.
Back Testing
Every valuation, forecasting, and advisory model has been extensively back-tested in the United States, Hong Kong, and Taiwan equities markets. The investment performance of each model has been proven to exceed that of many well-known stock-picking styles.

One size mastitis treatment doesn't fit all
One size mastitis treatment doesn't fit all
The type of pathogen and history of the cow should play a role in mastitis treatment decisions.
by Abby Bauer, Hoard's Dairyman Associate Editor
"You must know the mastitis pathogen to know how to treat it," said Pam Ruegg, extension milk quality specialist from the University of Wisconsin-Madison at the 46th annual American Association of Bovine Practitioners' meeting. She encouraged dairy producers and veterinarians to engage in "watchful waiting," keeping an eye on cows identified with mastitis but postponing treatment until milk is cultured and cow history is studied.
Ruegg explained that mastitis treatment decisions made on farm are often based on the visual detection of inflammation, which is not the detection of infection. By the time swelling appears in a quarter, the cow's own immune system is already working to fight the infection. "In many situations, we are treating cases of mastitis that the immune system has already taken care of," she said.
In fact, many clinical mastitis symptoms are likely to disappear after 4 to 6 days with or without treatment, she noted. Therefore, it is hard to determine whether antibiotic treatment or the cow's immune system resulted in the return to normal milk. It can also be difficult to determine whether clinical symptoms have simply subsided or if a bacteriological cure has been achieved. Milk culturing is a great way to determine what pathogens are being dealt with and what intramammary antibiotic treatment protocol would be the most appropriate.
Reviewing cow-specific factors will help producers make better decisions in regards to mastitis treatment and cure success as well. Cows that had mastitis once are more likely to have another case in the future, Ruegg explained. In one study, cows with mastitis for the first time were seven times more likely to reach bacteriological cure than cows with previous infections. Age has also been associated with reduced clinical response to therapy.
The bottom line? Don't treat all cases the same, said Ruegg. Consider the following take-away messages:
- Link culture data to treatment decisions.
- Check the medical history of the cow before treatment.
- Extended duration of intramammary mastitis therapy should not be used for all cases of mild or moderate clinical mastitis.
- Do not administer antibiotics to cows that will not benefit from treatment.
- Include your veterinarian in developing protocols and measuring outcomes.

The Java Broker is an 100% Java implementation and as such it can be used on any operating system supporting Java 1.6 or higher. This includes Linux, Solaris, Mac OS X, and Windows XP/Vista/7/8.
The broker has been tested with Java implementations from both Oracle and IBM. Whatever platform you chose, it is recommended that you ensure it is patched with any critical updates made available from the vendor.
Verify that your JVM is installed properly by following these instructions.
The Java Broker installation requires approximately 20MB of free disk space.
The Java Broker also requires a working directory. The working directory is used for the message store, that is, the area of the file-system used to record persistent messages whilst they are passing through the Broker. The working directory is also used for the default location of the log file. The size of the working directory will depend on the how the Broker is used.
The performance of the file system hosting the work directory is key to the performance of Broker as a whole. For best performance, choose a device that has low latency and one that is uncontended by other applications.
Be aware that there are additional considerations if you are considering hosting the working directory on NFS. See Chapter 10, Virtual Host Message Stores for further details.
Qpid caches messages on the heap for performance reasons, so in general, the Broker will benefit from as much heap as possible. However, on a 32bit JVM, the maximum addressable memory range for a process is 4GB, after leaving space for the JVM's own use this will give a maximum heap size of approximately ~3.7GB.

The Nevada Wolf Pack is in serious jeopardy of falling off the football cliff.
The wheels are coming off the Wolf Pack bus. Actually, the wheels came off last Friday when head coach Chris Ault announced his retirement.
The week before Ault's punch-to-the-Pack-gut announcement, the headlights burned out when assistant coach Barry Sacks left for California. The doors came off the Pack bus when offensive coordinator Nick Rolovich officially left for the Temple Owls. And now the fuel pump, transmission and carburetor are laying scattered all over the road now that running back Stefphon Jefferson said he is headed to the NFL a year early.
What's next?
Alphie is going to join the circus? The Fremont Cannon is going to be sold for scrap? The university is going to change the school colors to purple and pink? Chris Tormey is coming back as head coach? Cary Groth has taken back her retirement promise and has signed a 10-year contract extension?
Make it stop.
Wolf Pack nation is crumbling all around us. At least the good folks of Pompeii could see the volcano creeping towards them. This Wolf Pack volcano hit in the middle of the night when we were all sleeping. And now Wolf Pack nation is threatening to become just another Nevada ghost town strewn about the dust and gravel of U.S. 50.
Just about everything Ault said on Friday is now turning into a cruel slap in the face.
"I believe Wolf Pack football has firmly established a blueprint of success, one that can be sustained," Ault said.
That Wolf Pack blueprint had just one sentence on it: Let Chris Ault coach the football team whenever he wants to. It worked for three decades. Now they need a new blueprint.
"We are no longer just a spot on the regional map," Ault said. "We have a national reputation and a national following."
The national reputation was always just Ault's reputation. It was Ault and his pistol offense with Colin Kaepernick sprinkled on top for flavor. The national following? Again, that was just Ault, his pistol and a little Kaepernick to make it sparkle. The Pack, as everyone who has sat in a half-empty Mackay Stadium since it opened nearly 50 years ago, barely has a northern Nevada following.
It's might take a microscope to find that spot on the regional map again.
"Whoever comes in and takes this program over will come in and say, 'You know what, there's something here,'" Ault said. "'The cupboards aren't empty.'"
Not only are the cupboards emptying faster than you can say Pack Pride, the doors to those cupboards are now laying on the floor and a family of mice is now living in your Wheaties box. An underachieving program that has gone 7-6 the last two seasons and thought the seasons ended on Nevada Day, has been gutted like a cutthroat trout pulled out of Pyramid Lake. The Chris Tormey era isn't looking so bad now, is it, Pack fans?
Happy New Year, indeed.
Why are people jumping off the Pack ship like Sarah Palin for President campaign supporters? First it was Groth last September. Nobody simply gives up cushy, six-figure, four-hour workday A.D. jobs in this economy, especially at a school where there is no pressure to win anything of significance.
Then the Pack football assistants (Sacks, Rolovich and James Spady and who knows who else) started updating their resumes and were lining up and taking jobs even before Ault waved good-bye on Friday. Ault insisted he only told them he was retiring on Friday morning. Rolovich, Spady and Sacks obviously could see the future better than the Mayans.
And now Jefferson is leaving because, we assume, he thinks he's the next Doug Martin.
Make it stop. Please?
Will quarterback Cody Fajardo stick around? Does wide receiver Brandon Wimberly even want to come back for a sixth year now? Will the offensive line change its nickname from The Union to The Scabs? How many recruits who have pledged to the Pack already this fall and winter will change their mind before signing day next month? How many recruits now won't even consider the Pack?
Why would you consider the Pack right now if you are an undecided recruit? First of all, you don't even know what the Wolf Pack is anymore. The head coach is gone. The offensive coordinator is gone. The defensive line coach is gone. Other assistants will likely leave shortly, if they can find jobs. The only assistants seemingly still with the program (the defensive guys) are the ones that probably should have been fired the moment ESPN signed off after the New Mexico Bowl ended. (The Pack should call it the Same Old Mexico Bowl by the way).
The athletic director is on her way out. The president has only been in the job eight months. And those are the two who will supposedly spearhead the search for the new head coach and athletic director.
The Pack is headed over the football cliff in a silver and blue barrel.
"Whatever I can do to help (the new coach), I'll do that," Ault said.
The only way Ault can help now is by staying at least another year as head coach or becoming the next athletic director immediately.
Ault also said, "My whole goal, I'm focused on leaving this program in the best way I can."
That's not going so well, is it?
Ault also added, "There's nothing that I am gravitating to from this day on other than making sure this ship keeps sailing."
Was Ault the captain of the USS Nevada on Dec. 7, 1941?
The Wolf Pack athletic department is at a crossroads. One road leads to bowl games, conference titles and weekly national television games. The other road leads to the Idaho Vandals neighborhood. The hiring of the new athletic director and football coach are the two most important hires in the history of the Nevada athletic department.
Another football era like 1997-2004, when the Pack went 35-57 with no bowl games, or 1952-75 when the sport was a glorified intramural program, could leave Mackay Stadium as barren as the parking lot that used to serve Park Lane Mall.
If you are old enough to remember pre-Chris Ault Wolf Pack football, well, you know what we're talking about. The 2013 season will be the first non-Ault Pack football season since 1975.
A little history lesson is appropriate here.
Jerry Scattini went 37-36-1 in seven seasons (1969-75) as Pack head coach. Dick Trachok went 40-47-3 in 10 seasons (1959-68). Gordon McEachron was 6-23-1 in four seasons (1955-58) as head coach. Jake Lawlor was 6-11 in three years (1952-54). Joe Sheeketski was 6-14 over his final two seasons (1949-50).
Add it all up and the Pack was 95-131-5 over 26 seasons B.C. (Before Chris -- and, no, we don't mean Tormey).
It could happen again. A .420 winning percentage, that is. And, don't forget, Cal Poly Pomona, Humboldt State, Chico State, Cal State Los Angeles, Pepperdine, Redlands, Willamette, Whittier and Cal State Hayward are not available to kick around anymore. Next year, for example, the Pack gets Oregon, UCLA and Florida State. In the immortal words of tornado victim Dorothy, "Oh, my."
The Pack spent the past decade trying to become the next Boise State and now they are perilously close to getting on a path to becoming the next New Mexico State.
Unless -- and this is a big unless with no track record to point to -- Johnson, Groth and whatever suits they hire to form a search committee make some great decisions.
It can happen. There are a lot of great, young coaches out there.
But will Johnson, Groth and the suits recognize a great young coach when they see one? Don't bet on it. They already let a great, young coach (Rolovich) leave town as well as a couple of great old coaches (Ault, Sacks).
Will they even be able to afford that great, young coach -- and keep him -- even if they hire him? Even if the right coach is hired, that coach will have a good year and leave immediately. And then the process starts all over again. Nevada football, with its mediocre budget, has become, almost overnight, a stepping stone program. Ault and his silver and blue loyalty pledge hid that fact for decades.
"We're not a million dollar plus place for a coach," Johnson said on Friday. "Nevada isn't in the money game."
Too bad.
If Johnson, Groth and the suits don't make the right decisions in the coming weeks and months they will never be in the money game. That's all college sports is these days, by the way -- an ugly, cold, money game (why else would someone go to Temple to coach?) -- and the Pack is stepping up to the coaching search poker table with a couple of drink tokens and a coupon for a free buffet.
"Wolf Pack football has gone about as far as it can go under these circumstances," Ault said.
Imagine, if you dare, how far it can go under the new circumstances.

Bowl slots with Southeastern Conference ties are solidifying before Saturdays kickoff in the SEC championship game between Alabama and Georgia.
South Carolina (10-2) and Clemson (10-2) are waiting for Sunday nights BCS Bowl Selection Show. But the Tigers, a virtual Chick-fil-A Bowl lock, know they will face an SEC opponent at the Georgia Dome (Dec. 31, 7:30 p.m.).
It looks like LSU or Georgia.
We will try to get an 11th win, Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney said after the Tigers 27-17 loss to South Carolina. An 11th win is something that hasnt happened in this program in a long, long time. Theres still a lot of things out there for us.
The Gamecocks, going for a second consecutive 11-win season, appear headed for the Outback Bowl in Tampa (Jan. 1, 1 p.m.). Northwestern is the most likely foe on the Big Ten side of the Outback draw.
A lot of trickle-down bowl alignment is tied to the Capital One Bowls apparent love of SEC upstart Texas A&M. The Orlando-based bowl might opt for Georgia but appears to lean toward the Aggies and Heisman Trophy frontrunner Johnny Football Manziel.
Ive been very impressed, Capital One Bowl representative Jim Vincent told the Dallas Morning News. They obviously have a very good team, and Im very impressed with the quarterback.
SEC pecking order
The Gamecocks benefit in the SEC pecking order from Clemson playing in the Chick-fil-A Bowl; few bowls want a rematch of two teams from the same state.
The 10 SEC bowl agreements, after the BCS national championship game selection, start with the Sugar Bowl. The Capital One Bowl picks next. Then the Cotton Bowl has the first preference of teams from the Western Division and the Outback Bowl picks first from the remaining SEC East teams. The Cotton and Outback bowls can pick teams outside divisional preference but must not select them before the opposite bowl selects from its divisional preference.
The Chick-fil-A Bowl gets the next pick, followed by the Gator, Music City, Liberty or Compass and Independence bowls. With nine bowl-eligible teams and one in the BCS title game, the SEC will leave two of its 10 bowl spots open to at-large selections.

Bond Tops 1,000 as Mens Hoops Pushes Toledo
TOLEDO, Ohio -- Chris Bond scored a career-high 22 points and surpassed 1,000 for his career in an 85-74 loss for a shorthanded Ball State men's basketball team Sunday night at Toledo.
The Cardinals played without starting center Majok Majok and reserve guard Kindon Crowder because of ankle sprains but stuck with the best the Mid-American Conference has to offer into the final minutes at Savage Arena.
Bond scored 16 of his points in the second half, and the senior from Gary, Ind., logged a career-high for the second straight game. Jesse Berry finished with 17 points, including 14 in the first half, and Mading Thok added a career-high 12 off the bench for Ball State (4-21, 1-13 MAC).
Toledo (23-4, 11-3 MAC) placed five scorers in double figures, led by Julius Brown with 20 points. Brown also dished out seven assists for a Rockets team that started strong and finished strong on the offensive end on the way to 56.1 percent shooting for the game.
Ball State erased an 11-point halftime deficit to tie the score twice in the second half. Berry's only basket after the break – his fifth 3-pointer of the night – tied it up for the last time at 60-60 with 8:42 to play. The Rockets grabbed the lead back but could not pull away.
Bond found Thok inside for a dunk and the Cardinals trailed just 70-67 with less than four minutes to play. But Brown hit two free throws on the other end and Toledo outscored Ball State by a 15-7 margin down the stretch.
"I was proud of our effort," Ball State head coach James Whitford said. "I thought we really competed hard. It was a three-point game at the final media timeout, and we had just missed three free throws out of our last five. We were in position to win the game.
"We didn't defend well in the first six minutes, and we didn't defend well in the last four minutes."
The Rockets connected on 60 percent of their shots (15 for 25) after halftime to stave off the Cardinals' run. Nathan Boothe and Justin Drummond each scored 17 points for Toledo, while J.D. Weatherspoon added 14 and Rian Pearson had 13.
It was the second time this season Ball State posed a serious threat to Toledo, an NCAA Tournament at-large contender with an RPI of 30. The Rockets beat the Cardinals 80-73 in Muncie earlier this month in a game that was within one possession in the final minute.
Ball State did it Sunday with effort, diving for loose balls and winning the hustle stats categories. The Cardinals held a 35-30 rebounding advantage, including 17-9 on the offensive glass, against the top rebounding team in the MAC. They scored 19 second-chance points to seven for Toledo.
Bond came into the game needing 19 points to reach 1,000 and achieved the milestone on a lay-in late in the game. He became the second Ball State player to join the 1,000-point club this season, joining Berry, and the 28th in the history of the Cardinals program.
"When Chris plays well, that's usually a sign our team had a good game," Whitford said. "He's a guy who finishes a lot of good plays for us. I'm excited for him to score his 1,000th point, and I'm really proud of all he has accomplished both on the court and away from it."
Berry, Ball State's all-time 3-point leader, was the offensive catalyst early. He knocked down four treys in the first half, the last of which trimmed Toledo's lead to 33-31. But the Rockets ran off the final eight points of the half to push the lead to 11 before the Cardinals' second-half comeback.
Thok, Ball State's 6-foot-11 redshirt freshman center scored eight of his 12 points after the break. Thok saw a career-high 18 minutes of action with Majok ailing. He shot 6 for 8 from the floor and also added five rebounds.
Ball State returns to Worthen Arena this week for its final two home games of the season. The Cardinals will host Western Michigan, the other MAC West Division co-leader with Toledo, Wednesday at 7 p.m. and Central Michigan Saturday at 2 p.m.

It's only been three weeks since Olympic gold medalist Evan Lysacek placed second behind winner Nicole Scherzinger on Dancing with the Stars, but the skater says he's still dancing in his dreams.
"I dream that I have to go out and dance but I forgot to learn the routine," Lysacek told PEOPLE at his 24 Hour Fitness and Coke Workout Sweepstakes event in New York recently. "I've had that dream two or three times ... The music starts and I'm like, 'Oh no! We didn't have time to learn it.' Then I would wake up and realize it was a dream."
Despite the occasional nightmare, Lysacek, 25, looks back fondly on his DWTS experience, calling it "remarkable." He's cherishing the memories as much as the new friends he made on the show. "I've kept in really close touch with the entire cast," he says. "The I met were the best thing I took from being on the show. We all walked away with a new family."
And that includes Kate Gosselin, with whom he says he's in constant communication. "Kate is in New York right now. We've been texting each other back and forth and we're trying to get together," he says. "We are very close. She is the sweetest woman in the world. We were instantly friends and everyone really loved her on the show. We missed her so much when she left. She's hilarious and she's always joking around. I don't think she ever said a serious sentence."
Before the show, Lysacek says he didn't know much about the Kate Plus 8 star. "I'm not a big tabloid reader and I was so focused on the Olympics and I never watched TV," he says. "She's got a lot to deal with. If I had eight kids, I can't imagine. I'm sure it's pretty tough and sometimes that's misconstrued with Kate. But she's an amazing mom and a tough lady. She was constantly showing pictures and videos of her kids and missing them."
When asked if he would consider babysitting Gosselin's eight children, he says he doesn't have skills to do so.
"She wouldn't want me to," says Lysacek with a laugh. "Maybe one of them – and that would be a challenge. I have a 16-month-old nephew and I couldn't baby sit him alone. He's mischievous, so I don't think I could handle eight. But Kate is a pro." –Paul Chi

Should we be making way for the stink bugs?
October 1, 2012
We should consider ourselves lucky. My daughter, who lives in Maryland, sent me a rather frantic text message a few days ago....
I have experienced these pests first hand. I have family just south of Harrisburg, PA. They were so bad we had to use a pressure washer to clean them off the house. They have had to get a pest company in and spray for the past two years. Hope one of the companies around here is equipped with the right stuff, or we are in trouble

Louise Hopkins Underwood
Inducted 2008
If youre looking for culture and excitement around Lubbock, then youll find it at The Louise Hopkins Underwood Center for the Arts (LHUCA). This community arts center attracts over 48,000 people a year who appreciate visual and performing arts, literature and film in the South Plains region of West Texas and it bears Louise Hopkins Underwoods name because of her vision, her faith and her perseverance.
Born in Houston in 1919, Mrs. Underwood bounced between Texas and the Northeast before marrying Harris Faulkner Underwood II and settling down after World War II in Lubbock, where they raised six children.
Mrs. Underwood has always been extremely active within her community, but the arts have been her love and have become her legacy. She was a founding member of the Texas Alliance for Education and the Arts, and the Lubbock Cultural Arts Commission. Her involvement and encouragement have benefited individual artists, as well as LHUCA, the Texas Tech University Museum and College of Visual and Performing Arts, the Lubbock Symphony Orchestra, Ballet Lubbock and three Lubbock theatre groups.
In 1997, Mrs. Underwood with cofounder Neal Hanslik conceptualized a single place for area artists to facilitate their work through education, exhibition and performance. They gathered information about arts centers, cultivated support and raised funds to turn the idea into a reality.
The LHUCA campus, covering 34,000 square feet once an abandoned fire department administration building, a Bordens warehouse, and a former garage and storage building now provides below-cost professional offices to nonprofit organizations, inexpensive space for classes, exhibitions and meetings, a clay studio and a state-of-the-art theatre. First Friday Art Trails display regional visual artists work, often drawing more than 2,000 visitors.
Mrs. Underwoods work in the arts has earned her many accolades, including the Dynamic Force award from Lubbocks Arts Alliance, and Champion of the Arts award from the Texas Alliance for Education and the Arts. But her greatest reward has been her namesake Center thanks to her own indomitable spirit and passion, a dream come true.

The utility that a particular concept or object has that is unique to that concept or object.
"I'm not sure of the specific utility of the word, 'meme.' Why not just call it idea? I suppose coining a brand new word glamorizes a concept and helps us appreciate it on a contextual metaplane."

Thursday, February 14, 2013
My friend and fellow Summerville Writers Guild member Dena Phillips recently sent me an insightful and charming email about the apron. I'm sure this bit of apron history intrigued her because she writes insightful and charming stories about growing up in her family of sisters.
Her missive couldn't have come at a better time for me as I was just bemoaning the fact that I seem to have more aprons than the clothes that go under them. That's because, frankly I'm an absentminded klutz who spills a lot and tends to wipe her hands on whatever she's wearing. That pondering led me to wonder why chefs often don identically styled white cover ups. If I were a chef, I'd surely need a daily dozen of those starched, heavy cotton jackets with long sleeves and knotted buttons. But why white of all things, seemingly the easiest color to soil?
Turns out there are reasons. First the heavy cotton helps insulate from hot places like ovens and stovetops and is a breathable material that lets body heat escape. Long sleeves protect arms reaching across burners or into ovens. Cotton absorbs liquids. Jackets with those knotted buttons can be stripped off more easily during a hot oil spill and they don't melt or crumble, dropping bits and pieces into food. And after all, bleach cures most white woes.
There are many types of aprons, including cobbler and smock which pretty much envelope you – the best option for yours truly – and a similar kind known in England as the "pinny," short for the basic design of a pinafore. In 1950s television, you hardly ever saw the perfect wife portrayed without an apron. Today's aprons are more stylish, but I still don't see them much on TV. Come to think of it I also don't see them much on my daughters or daughter-in-law, or on my son or sons-in law – who also cook. They obviously are more nimble in evading stains than the matriarch of my kitchen. But apron history goes back even farther than the 1950s or even into my grandmother's day. Some researchers cite the Bible, referencing a passage in which Adam and Eve sewed together fig leaves to make aprons to cover themselves.
Into this forum comes Dena's apron history email. Acknowledging the apron was a protection in grandma's day, it was also used for a variety of caring things, such as drying children's tears as well as cleaning out their ears They carried eggs from the henhouse as well as wood chips from the yard, plus fruits and vegetables from the garden. Aprons served as a last minute duster when unexpected company came and as a signal used by grandma waving it overhead to call men folk to dinner from the farm fields. Today's government, it notes, would go crazy trying to figure out how many germs were on that apron. The email ends with this nostalgia, "I don't think I ever caught anything from an apron but love."
Come to think of it for most of us in my age bracket, i.e., drifting along somewhere between our sixth and eight decades, there are a lot of apron memories of our own mothers and grandmothers. And thanks to Dena's sharing, we can smile a little at the history of what we are doing every time we put one on.

I was waiting for the perfect date for Selma, and rock climbing could not have been better because she told me she often gets judged as a prissy girl. This was my chance to see if she could rough it for a day.
From the moment I picked Selma up, everything seemed so natural. It amazed me how comfortable I was with her. And on the flight to Joshua Tree, she fell asleep with her head on my chest, which led me to believe she was just as comfortable.
The date itself was incredible. Joshua Tree was such a beautiful place and I was happy to be sharing the experience with Selma.
I had my doubts as to whether she could handle the rock climbing, but she proved she can rough it. She climbed the rock faster than I did! And I think she really had a fun time doing it. At the top we got to watch a beautiful sunset together as our reward. We had so much fun but I was looking forward to what I had in store for her next.
The trailer park was so cool. I'm not sure TV does it justice. Between the retro trailers, lights, AstroTurf and the starry night, it was one of the most romantic places I visited all season. My time with Selma that night was so great. She opened up about past relationships, what she wants out of life and what she wants in a man. Then she dropped the no-kissing bomb on me.
It surprised me because she is so affectionate. After hearing about her mom's beliefs, I completely understood. She was in a tough spot and wanted to kiss me but she had too much respect for her mom. The no-kissing thing made our relationship more exciting because I had something to look forward to. Plus, Selma's heart and personality were more than enough. Selma left with a rose and with a piece of my heart. Once again, I was starting to fall for another woman.
On a RollThe group date started out as a fun idea. I wanted to see who would compete and embrace the physicality of roller derby. But as soon as the girls put on their skates, I knew it was not the most practical date.
Asking the women to skate on an embanked track while hitting each other seemed like a bit much. They were all having a tough time during practice, and then I really had doubts after Amanda fell and busted her chin. That's when I decided to do an old-school free skate instead. Besides, I was there to spend time with the women and not to watch them kill each other.
The rest of the afternoon was a blast. But I was glad to be off skates and on top of the downtown Roosevelt Lofts for the evening part of the date. I remember having such a nice night before running into Tierra. I knew she was having a tough time with the other women and needed more reassurance than anyone else.
What I didn't know was how much the other women disliked her. For the most part, Tierra was all smiles around me so I didn't know she was showing the women another side. When I found her crying on the steps, I knew she doubted whether or not she should be there.
I don't know what it was about Tierra, but I definitely felt a connection with her that goes back to the first night and I didn't like seeing her upset. Once again, I did my best to reassure her of my feelings.
I'll admit my decision to give her the rose was a symbolic Band-Aid. I wanted Tierra to be happy and I wanted to fix whatever was wrong with her. Isn't that what boyfriends are supposed to do? It was obviously a rash decision that was not received well by the other women. But please keep in mind I had not seen the Tierra they had.
Spark or Sparkle?You usually know if a spark exists with someone within seconds of meeting that person. In rare cases, a spark can develop into a relationship. I was hoping that would happen with Leslie H. on the Pretty Woman date. She was so friendly, kind and down-to-earth. I think she said, "Holy moly" at least a dozen times because of the extravagance of the date and she was grateful to be on it with me.
I really enjoyed my day and had fun shopping with her. The conversation was effortless and she made me laugh a lot, but I never found the spark I was looking for. Sending her home was one of the more difficult things I had to do all season because I knew she didn't see it coming. I admired and respected Leslie for so many reasons, but I knew she wasn't the one for me.
The cocktail party was eventful to say the least! There was more drama with Tierra and the girls, which I did not know about at the time, and a big turning point for Catherine and me. She always stood out in my mind as someone very unique and different. She tapped into my inner nerd, which I loved, but I was afraid that she was putting me in the "friend zone" because every time I tried to show her affection, it didn't feel like she would reciprocate. And yes, that's right everyone – I'm a nerd. Deal with it.
Aggressive Friend ZoneAnyway, I was surprised when Catherine gave me the card with a kiss of lipstick on it. I'd call that "aggressive friend zone." She told me she wanted to kiss me but couldn't while the other girls were in sight. She was so nervous that she buried her head in my chest and wouldn't look up. After a few seconds I told her, "It's okay to look up," and then we had our first kiss.
What you didn't see was her excitement after. She was giddy and suggested that we frolic – definitely the first time I received that request, so I obliged. We skipped around the driveway ... and then played Dungeons and Dragons (not really).
At the rose ceremony I was left with another tough decision but one I was confident in making. I sent Amanda home because I just didn't feel a lasting connection with her. Until the show aired, I had no idea that she was a source of drama in the house. Amanda was always very sweet around me and I wish her all the best in the future.
Thanks for watching!

LOS ANGELES — You know those tall, leggy beauties who normally carry the Oscar trophies so the stars can present them?
They've been replaced this year by aspiring filmmakers. Six college students from across the country won a contest to help present the Oscar statuettes this year.
"This tradition of the buxom babe that comes out and brings the trophy to the presenter to give to the winner seemed to be very antiquated and kind of sexist too," said Neil Meron, co-producer of this year's Academy Awards. "They're just there to be objectified. Why can't we have people who actually care about film and are the future of film be the trophy presenters?"
So he and co-producer Craig Zadan developed a contest directed at college students that asked, "How will you contribute to the future of film?" More than 1,100 students submitted essays and videos, and six were chosen to appear on the Oscar telecast.
They attended their first rehearsal Wednesday.
"I'm still in shock," said ChaRon Brabham, 20, of Brooklyn, a theater major at State University of New York, Pottsdam. "I can't believe it, but it's real!"
The winning students each turned in an essay and a 30-second video about their aims in the film industry, and all said the opportunity to appear on the Oscar show is life-changing.
"Hollywood has always been a dream that was so far away," said Hearin Ko, 19, a sophomore at Boston's Emerson College who hails from Seoul, South Korea. "To finally be here and see everything, it brings the dream closer to me."
Abe Diaz, 18, of DePaul University in Chicago is a chemistry major who always considered film a hobby. "This is the fork in the road right now," said Diaz. "It'll definitely help in making me more aware if this is something I can do."
All six students will walk on the Oscar stage during Sunday's ceremony. They will get a makeover and formal tuxedo or gown for the event.

Demolition of a vacant but highly visible church building in North Buffalo that was the site of a fire in April could be under way by the end of the week.
Although the Preservation Board has sought to delay the city's decision by designating the building a city landmark, city officials have said that if the building's owners have met the requirements to obtain a demolition permit, one cannot be denied. .
"Personally I think it's a beautiful building, and I would hate to see it demolished," Mayor Byron W. Brown said Wednesday of the former home of a Korean Methodist congregation, at Colvin and Tacoma avenues.
However, Brown said, the city has to follow the law if the property owner is requesting to demolish it and has met the requirements.
Permits and Inspections Commissioner James Comerford Jr. is reviewing the application and is expected to issue a permit "shortly," city spokesman Michael J. DeGeorge said Wednesday afternoon.
DeGeorge said he doubted that the city would wait for the landmark designation process to run its course.
The city could have issued a permit already, because the application was received Nov. 26, and the city must wait only 30 days to issue one.
City officials predicted a permit could be issued by the end of the week, as long as the application is in order.
Permits cannot be unreasonably withheld, said Peter J. Savage III, deputy corporation counsel.
The Preservation Board is hoping to stop the demolition and has begun the process of designating 375 Colvin Ave. as a city landmark.
"Part of our charge with threatened buildings is to evaluate them," said board member Tim Tielman.
The board is holding a public hearing on the designation Jan. 10, but that might be too late, according to the city's timeline.
The designation would also face confirmation by the Common Council, which would add at least another two weeks to the process.
The Preservation Board has more authority over the future of buildings that are city landmarks or are in preservation districts. For buildings like the former church, which does not fall into either category, the board can make a recommendation to the commissioner but, short of a lawsuit, cannot hold up the demolition permit.
Maidstone Mulenga, a spokesman for the Upper New York Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church, which owns the building, said Wednesday that the church continues to wait on a permit.
The large church has been vacant since 2006, and plans to reuse the building have not yet materialized.
However, Tielman said there has been some recent interest, and a landmark designation would help a developer by making the property eligible for historic tax credits.
The April fire caused $250,000 in damage, and the church has said it has been working with the city to make sure the building is safe.
The building features a bell tower and is a commanding presence on a busy street. Over the years, it has been home to congregations of various faiths.
Delaware Council Member Michael J. LoCurto said there is no urgent need to tear it down.
"It's like the city saying it's OK to ignore your buildings and we're going to help you do demolition by neglect," LoCurto said.

Readers' Choice Awards 2011
The votes are in, the tallies are counted, the hanging chads have been evaluated, and we have our winners. This year holds a few surprises, a couple dominant players and as much open source as you can handle. We don't encourage gambling here at Linux Journal, but if you had an office pool going for pizza money, it's officially too late to make your wager.
It is just a Linux, it was
It is just a Linux, it was never a GNU/Linux and never will be.
GNU/Linux would be correct only if Linux would be a microkernel and servers would be from GNU project. Otherway saying, Linux would be a microkernel and replace Mach microkernel used in HURD operating system.
Linux is a monolithic operating system, the kernel is whole operating system alone, no GNU - or any other project - software is needed or used at all in it.
Those who use GNU/Linux, does not know the truth of Linux (I was one of them long, looong time ago, until technology show the truth).
RE: Ubuntu
Thank you for your insightful comments, which shows a depth and breadth of understanding and knowledge not normally found in internet comments. It's refreshing to read something that does not contain the usual stereotypes and trolling nature.
I didn't vote, at all, but I'm well versed in Linux distros, and operating systems in general, and I still use XUbuntu for my normal desktop system.
First, since you claim that those who use Ubuntu have never used other distros, let me chime in with some of my history. My first Linux distro was an Yggdrasil Linux CD purchased when the internet was still dial-up in most areas. I've used Red Hat/Fedora, SuSE, Slax, Slitaz, Slackware, etc etc.
I'm also a dedicated OpenBSD user, and prefer that OS for my server installations. While we're on the topic of other operating systems, I used BeOS and Haiku, Mac OS X, and yes, even Windows (in all it's incantations from 3.0 through 7, including server versions) for most of my professional career (as an IT wonk).
Having said that, I like Ubuntu, or XUbuntu specifically, for my daily workstation, as it's nice to not have to mess with the underlying system to make most everything work. When I get done working on computers all day, sometimes I won't to come home and not work on a computer.
As the article states, apt makes updating and installing new packages simple, and I like the functionality of the Ubuntu One service. If I want to try out the latest bleeding edge software, I'm pretty assured of their being good Ubuntu support, due to it's popularity.
When I want to get down and dirty, I turn to one of my OpenBSD servers.
I forgot to mention the first
I forgot to mention the first Network system I did, I built 20 work stations and 2 servers running windows 95 with windows for work groups and Novell Netware. A bit before your time I presume
Ubuntu is a looser
No I stated those that voted for Ubuntu are mostly ex windows users who have never used any other Distribution, if they had they would have voted for the more superior Linux distributions, You didn't vote Why not?
As an IT wonk, Do you think by giving me your Linux history on what, how or where you use it make any difference to me,it won't make the slightest difference, Do you think your the only one that's ever used Red Hat/Fedora, SuSE, Slax, Slitaz, Slackware,etc etc. Me too.
Yggdrasil Linux CD purchased when the internet was still dial-up in most areas.
Yes I remember those day's very well, and the years before Microsoft or Apple Mac came into being, When Bill and Steve where still wet behind their hears, When my first stand alone computer cost more than I paid for my house, Thank god for the IBM compatibility standards. That was the only thing Bill Gates ever got right in his life. Stop trying to be a smart Alex it don't work.
Re: Ubuntu is a looser
I don't think Ubuntu is as good as some of the other mainstream distros (Fedora or Mint) either, but through both of your posts, you've failed to mention why exactly you don't like Ubuntu!
You see! Here is a perfect
You see! Here is a perfect example of what makes no sense about these debates!
Mint is ... "Based on Debian and Ubuntu, it provides about 30,000 packages and one of the best software managers."
Just like every other stupid distro that is based Debian and Ubuntu. It's not like we're comparing Irix and HPUX. The argument is moot.
Sorry, I'm not picking on you Anon Slacker!
Ubuntu is a great OS for popularization of Linux on desktops. Windows-likeness and over-userfriendliness are unavoidable. For me, Ubuntu was a transition step from windows to "that scary hardcore Linux" (I chose Arch shortly after).

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

Cathedral Prep stars highlight signing day (VIDEO)
Michigan State football coach Mark Dantonio has heard the speculation that Cathedral Prep quarterback Damion Terry could earn immediate playing time as a freshman next season.
At the Spartans' National Letter of Intent Day news conference Wednesday afternoon, Dantonio wasn't ready to make that leap.
"He's been very composed throughout his high school career. Everybody you talk to sees him as that, and I think that's a trait that quarterbacks have to have," Dantonio said after Terry signed. "With that being said, these other guys have a jump on him and they're going to have spring ball, and we've got a guy with experience in (2012 starter) Andrew Maxwell coming back, and he'll come in as the No. 1. We've got two guys in Connor Cook, who played well in the bowl game, and Tyler O'Connor, and I'll be very interested to watch him."
However, Dantonio did say that Terry has the talent to compete in the fall.
"Damion has the physical skills to play at this level right now," Dantonio said of the 6-foot 4-inch 220-pound Terry, who led Prep to a PIAA Class AAA title. "Now, the rest of it is up to him and our coaching staff, and obviously he has to fit the situation. A lot of this is timing and opportunity."
Terry and Prep teammate Delton Williams were two of 18 recruits to sign with Michigan State on a day when major-college recruits were making news throughout the nation. Two other Erie County players received scholarships from Division I schools -- McDowell's James Conner signed with Pitt, and General McLane's Quinn Thompson signed with Connecticut.
Dantonio said Michigan State must find a position for the versatile Williams, who can play running back, defensive back, linebacker or special teams.
"An athlete in the category sort of catchall guy is Delton Williams, can play our star backer, which is out-of-the-box backer; he can be a safety for us," said Dantonio, who added that Williams will likely play running back to start. "(He) reminds me a lot of (former Michigan State running back) Le'Veon Bell when Le'Veon was a senior in high school. He's a punt returner, kick returner, catches the ball extremely well.
"I think (Williams) had 59 catches or so this year, state champion team, 15-0, go-to guy, had about 700 yards rushing, (800) yards or so pass receiving, was the AAA defensive player of the year in the state of Pennsylvania. But (he's) a guy that can play a lot of positions, and I think he's a very, very special player in a lot of ways."
Conner, a running back and outside linebacker, was among 27 recruits signed by Pitt coach Paul Chryst.
"There's a guy who came to camp and first jumped out at us as a defensive end -- a rush guy -- and then the more we kept watching, certainly his senior tape, said, 'Boy, this guy's a football player and he's a heck of a running back,' " Chryst said of the 6-foot 2-inch, 230-pound Conner. "So we're going to start him at running back, but you look at James and you say, 'There is a football player,' and we're certainly excited about him."
Thompson, a 6-foot 5-inch, 225-pound defensive end/tight end, will play for Paul Pasqualoni at UConn.
Connecticut has had success with General McLane graduates. Former McLane star Blidi Wreh-Wilson played cornerback for UConn and was voted team MVP after the 2012 season. Wreh-Wilson is now preparing for the NFL draft.
Thompson hopes to make the same kind of impact for the Huskies.

How About Some Clawback at JPMorgan?

But not Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt.
The stars turned up in Manhattan late Wednesday night for the final leg of a whirlwind red-carpet marathon to promote their latest sci-fi action film, Edge of Tomorrow.
How did they look? Surprisingly well-refreshed.
"I feel good," said Cruise, who spent nearly an hour greeting fans before walking the red carpet. "It's like making a movie. You get a couple hours' sleep. You get up and get back at it."
The stars – who attended their first red carpet at 6:30 a.m. in London and then flew to Paris and then to New York – traveled on one plane with other cast members and director Doug Liman for the first leg. That "was a lot of fun," said Cruise, who, with Blunt, spent much of that flight walking around and socializing.
When it was time to fly from Paris to New York later that day, Cruise, Blunt and Liman, who "bonded" while making the film, the director said, took their own plane.
"We hung out for a bit and then just crashed," said Cruise, who looked crisp in a custom-fit black suit, white shirt and black tie.
"I don't know what happened on the other plane," he joked. "Emily and I were on ours, kind of going, 'We don't want to know. What happened on that plane stays on that plane.' ... We'll find out later."
Blunt, who looked stunning in a red strapless Prada column gown in New York City, had less-glamorous travel attire for the final flight. "I wore really disgusting pajamas," she said. "Me and makeup artist snuggled up together. I slept for four hours. It was great."
Before the movie, which opens to the public on Friday in the U.S., Blunt hit the gym "maybe twice a week," but upped her workouts to six days a week, two and a half hours a day, to train for the physical demands of battling alien invaders in the film.
"That was very new to me," she said.
That might come in handy one day, when her daughter Hazel, 3 months, gets older.
"I hope she knows not to mess with me if she's being a bad teenager," said the new mom. "She'll know if she's watched this movie."

Blue Ivy, Breeze Beretta, and 9 More of the Weirdest Celebrity Baby Names of 2012
Kids are vicious, especially when it comes to taunting fellow classmates who happen to have unique names. Parents may have thought they were selecting a creative name for their child in choosing Apple over Ashley or Knox over Kevin, but, unfortunately, other kids view originality as mean nickname potential.
Leave it to Hollywood to traumatize their kids in such a way; stars are the biggest perpetrators of naming their children something "different." And in 2012, celebrity moms and dads succeeded in coming up with some very weird names for their newborns. Good luck in school kids, you're going to need it.
1. Solo Uniacke: Die Another Day Bond girl Rosamund Pike's son, born May 6, is her first child. Could that be why she and her boyfriend, Robie Uniacke, decided to highlight their son's singularity with his name?
2. Breeze Beretta – Bristol Palin's ex Levi Johnston decided to name his daughter, born Sept. 12, after an Italian gun manufacturer. Breeze is Levi's second child — he has son Tripp with Bristol — and first with now-wife Sunny Oglesby.
3. Jedediah Lindsay Bowles: MasterChef judge Graham Elliot and his wife Allie went old school — really old school, like Old Testament school — when choosing a name for their son, born Aug. 25. Jedediah is a Hebrew name that means "friend of God." Elliot told People of choosing a name for his son, "Allie's dad's name is Jed and my dad's middle name is Lindsay. The names Jed and [Lindsay] don't get used often, and they're part of our family history, so why not embrace that?"
4. Kline Olivia: While it's a popular trend to give little girls names that traditionally go to boys — Jessica Simpson named her daughter Maxwell — Eli Young Band frontman Mike Eli and his wife Kacey seemed to have started their own trend. When they welcomed the birth of their daughter on July 30, they decided to go with a name that sounds more like a last name than a first.
5. Maple Sylvia Bateman: This is as sweet as it gets for Horrible Bosses star Jason Bateman and his wife Amanda Anka. While their first daughter scored the name Francesca, they decided to go with something a little more tasty when their second daughter was born on Feb. 10. Now all they have to do is drop the "lvia" from Maple's middle name and replace it with "rup." (Get it?)
6. Exton Elias Downey: Robert Downey Jr. and wife Susan's new son, born on Feb. 7, sounds like he belongs in the English court. Maybe Kate Middleton can borrow the name if she has a baby boy.
7. Clover Clementyne: Natasha Gregson Wagner and Barry Watson must have been munching on a piece of delicious, citrus fruit when they came up with the name for their daughter. Clover Clementyne was born on May 30.
8. Romy Hero Johnson: Sam Taylor-Wood and her husband Aaron Johnson have great expectations for their daughter, who was born in January. Move out of the way Wonder Woman and Black Widow, and make room for Romy Hero.
9. Blue Ivy Carter: Have you ever heard of someone being named Blue Ivy? We mean before Beyonce and Jay-Z's daughter was born on Jan. 7. We didn't think so.
10. Rosalind Arusha Arkadina Altalune Florence Thurman-Busson: Uma Thurman's daughter, who was born in July, sure is going to have a tough time remembering her own name. It's more than a mouthful.
11. Lion O'Loughlin: Roar. This little cub, born in October, is the son of Alex O'Loughlin and Malia Jones.

Walker stuffed the pompano with crabmeat, baked it in the oven, and he and his wife ate it for supper, washing down their repast with chilled Sauvignon Blanc.

While reprising her role as Black Widow for the highly anticipated sequel, the 29-year-old mother-to-be was given a variety of high-waisted outfits to wear in order to conceal the fact that she has a bun in the oven, Entertainment Weekly reports in its latest issue.
But Whedon insists the efforts to hide Johansson's pregnancy were, nevertheless, kept to a minimum.
"She's not going to spend the whole movie carrying groceries," notes Whedon. "We didn't trim any scenes. We're like, 'We'll make it work.' "
And while shooting the flick involved a lot of action, steps were taken to make sure Johansson's baby was kept out of harm's way. In fact, not one, not two, but three stunt doubles were brought in to handle the more physically intense scenes.
"It's always funny," Johanson's costar Chris Evans tells EW. "You walk by, 'Hey Scarlett – oh, weird. You're not Scarlett at all. Sorry.' A lot of fake Scarletts around."
Johansson and fiancé Romain Dauriac are expecting their first child together.

General Motors has officially
announced pricing for its 2007 Saturn Aura Green Line hybrid sedan. The
vehicle will retail for $22,695 including destination charge and will also be eligible
for a $1,300 tax credit from the federal government for 2007 tax returns.
For comparison, the Honda Civic Hybrid, Nissan Altima
Hybrid, Toyota Prius and Toyota Camry Hybrid are priced from $22,985, $25,015, $22,975
and $26,820 respectively, including destination charge.
The 2007 Aura Green Line is considered to be a "mild
hybrid" since it cannot move forward under electric power alone. The Aura
Green Line hybrid powertrain (164HP 2.4 liter 4-cylinder plus electric
motor/generator) is capable of providing mild electric assistance under acceleration,
stopping the engine when the vehicle comes to a stop and starting it back up
again when the gas is pressed. The car also takes advantage of regenerative
braking to help recharge the battery pack.
The Aura Green Line boasts EPA ratings of 28MPG/35MPG
city/highway compared to 20/30 for an Aura with the 224HP 3.5 liter V6 and
20/28 for the Aura with the 252HP 3.6 liter V6.
A more viable comparison may be with the Pontiac
G6 base sedan. This vehicle is the Saturn Aura's platform-mate and also
uses the 2.4 liter 4-cylinder engine and transmission without the hybrid
add-ons. EPA ratings for the G6 are 23/33 city/highway which means that the Aura
Green Line's hybrid system affords the driver an additional 5MPG in the city
and 2MPG on the highway.

Typical US cars that I have experienced are too heavy to match up for efficiency, not a slight against the people that build them, but the designers who design them.

Unless you've converted your whole setup to high definition (HD), standard definition (SD) is probably for you.
SD stills are 720x540 (4:3) and HD stills are 1280x720 (16:9).
You don't have to decide when you buy — both SD & HD versions include all three formats.
MPEG-1 is, most likely, not the best format for you. It will, however, work on any presentation software but can be "clunky" on a Mac.
Windows Media (WMV) is a nice compression for PC users. It typically works much better than MPEG on Windows.
Quicktime (MOV) is the best option if you're using a Mac, or Pro Presenter or Media Shout on a PC.
Triple Wide formats are designed for Environmental Projection or custom LED large venue events. If you're not familiar with either of these, you probably don't need this format for your system. We offer Triple Wide in either SD (2400 x 600) or HD (3840 x 720) resolutions. Most Environmental systems are still projecting in SD resolution, but if you are doing EP in HD then we got you covered!

Wednesday, August 21, 2013
On Friday, the Timberland Wolves get to put aside all the talk between the 2012 season and the upcoming 2013 season and have at it.
"We've heard all summer how we're young, how we're down but teams come up against us this fall thinking that, they might get their feelings hurt some," said THS Coach Art Craig.
Timberland surprised everybody, including their coach, with its play this summer, winning the Wilson 7-on-7 tournament, and convincingly winning scrimmages against Cane Bay and Woodland.
"We played very well against Cane Bay and Woodland," Craig said. "Our defense is young, just two sophomores and two juniors on the line."
Craig's youngest son Wyatt Craig bookends one defensive end slot while fellow junior Johnelle Brown anchors the other. "Wyatt and Johnelle have done a great job this summer keeping the game inside," the coach said. "We've surprised a lot of people this summer."
The Wolves are throwing the ball.
"I tell you this, by the time the season is over a lot of people are going to know the name Ryan Hood," Craig said. "He's got an arm and he knows his reads. He's going to surprise a lot of people this fall."
Craig said he has geared his team's offense towards his quarterback's arm. Against Woodland Craig said Hood completed 18 of 26 passes in the live-action scrimmage.
"This is new for us, throwing the ball more," Craig said.
Hood's primary targets will be Shamel Williams, Bernard "V.A." Harmon, Matt Gabel and Wyatt Craig.
"We'll still run the ball, but we do plan to open up our offense more," Craig said.

About the EPAct Transportation Regulatory Activities
The Energy Policy Act (EPAct) of 1992—as amended by other key federal statutes—directed the U.S. Department of Energy to develop the Alternative Fuel Transportation Program to manage the following EPAct transportation regulatory activities, which aim to reduce U.S. petroleum consumption through the use of alternative fuels, alternative fuel vehicles (AFVs), and other petroleum-displacement methods.
Related Activities
For information about other activities related to EPAct, learn about:
State and Alternative Fuel Provider Fleets
The State and Alternative Fuel Provider Fleet Program requires covered fleets either to acquire alternative fuel vehicles as a percentage of their annual light-duty vehicle acquisitions or to employ other petroleum-reduction methods in lieu of acquiring AFVs. DOE established these requirements through 10 CFR Part 490, available from the U.S. Government Printing Office.
Learn more about compliance methods.
Alternative Fuels Authorization
EPAct authorizes DOE to add fuels to the list of EPAct-defined alternative fuels by making a final rule after a petition process. Petitioners must demonstrate fuel composition, environmental, and energy security benefits before DOE will undertake a rulemaking. The regulatory process for alternative fuel petitions is extensive and resource-intensive, involving full public disclosure. Documents and media submitted during this process are published in an online docket.
Private and Local Government Fleet Determination
EPAct 1992 required DOE to determine whether private and local government fleets should be subject to DOE's Alternative Fuel Transportation Program and associated requirements. Unlike the mandates for other regulated fleets, Congress conditioned DOE's authority to implement a private and local government fleet regulation on whether such a regulation was necessary to achieve the Replacement Fuel Goal.
In March 2008, DOE determined not to require private and local government fleets to acquire AFVs because such a requirement is not necessary to achieve the Replacement Fuel Goal. Learn more about DOE's Private and Local Government Fleet Determination.
Replacement Fuel Goal Modification
The Replacement Fuel Goal is a goal established by statute to replace 30% of U.S. motor fuel use with non-petroleum fuels by 2010. EPAct 1992 directed DOE to evaluate this goal periodically and modify it if DOE found it not practical and achievable. In March 2007, DOE modified the Replacement Fuel Goal, extending it to 2030.
