(E.Mey.) P.J.H.Hurter[1]
Vachellia erioloba (camel thorn, giraffe thorn, Afrikaans: Kameeldoring, Tswana: Mogôtlhô, Sotho: Mogohlo)[2] is a southern African legume.[3] Its preferred habitat is the deep dry sandy soils of the Northern Provinces, western Free State, northern Cape Provinces, Botswana, and the western areas of Zimbabwe and Namibia. It is also native to Angola, south-west Mozambique, Zambia, KwaZulu-Natal, and Swaziland.[4] The tree was first described by Ernst Heinrich Friedrich Meyer and Johann Franz Drège in 1836.[4]
The tree can grow up to 17 metres high and is commonly found in Namibia. Its name refers to the fact that giraffe (kameelperd in Afrikaans) and camels[citation needed] commonly graze on the harder-to-reach succulent leaves normally out of reach of smaller animals. Giraffe in particular are partial to all vachellias and manifest a specially-adapted tongue and lips that can cope with the vicious thorns. It also grows ear-shaped pods, which are favoured by a large number of herbivores including cattle. The wood is dark reddish-brown in colour and extremely dense and strong. It is slow-growing, very hardy to drought and fairly frost-resistant.
The wood is a good fuel for fires, which leads to widespread clearing of dead trees and the felling of healthy trees. According to superstition, lightning will strike at V. erioloba more often than other trees.[5] The camel thorn's seeds can be roasted and used as a substitute for coffee beans.[5] The camel thorn is a protected tree in South Africa.[2]

It's another Kardashian Krisis.
When Lamar Odom got traded from the L.A. Lakers to the Dallas Mavericks, his wife Khloé Kardashian put on a brave face and headed for Texas, camera crew in tow.
But now Odom is struggling: The notoriously sensitive player is apparently reeling over a trade he never wanted and from taking care of his ailing father.
It's gotten so bad that Odom took a leave of absence from the team and then a demotion Friday to the D-League to get back into playing condition for the main squad.
In fact, it was Odom who suggested he play Saturday with the development league team Legends in nearby Frisco, Texas.
Neither Odom nor Khloé has commented, but Khloé may have been referring to the rough stretch in a Twitter post.
"Crazy/weird week but I'm putting fantastic vibes out into the universe," she writes. "Vibes do your thing."

Who's who: The six-team division consists of the Bishop Timon-St. Jude Tigers, Canisius Crusaders, Cardinal O'Hara Hawks, St. Francis Red Raiders, St. Joe's Marauders and St. Mary's Lancers. Nichols is a Monsignor Martin member in many sports, but is an independent in football.
This year's alignment shift: The league is again one division; last year was its first in that format after being split in AA and A divisions. St. Mary's, which played a limited Monsignor Martin schedule last year, now joins Cardinal O'Hara in playing each of the traditional four "large" schools once.
Last year's champion: St. Joe's won the regular season, but it was St. Francis that capped off a very impressive finish by beating St. Joe's, 37-16, for the title at Ralph Wilson Stadium.
2011 rewind: One of the most eventful seasons in league history. Clemson-bound Chad Kelly won Player of the Year honors and set the Western New York single-season passing record (3,056) by nearly 500 yards. Kelly led St. Joe's to the regular season title, thanks in large part to a 27-20 Week Five win at St. Francis. Akeel Lynch, who is now at Penn State, ran for a Monsignor Martin record 2,136 yards for St. Francis, including a school-record 376 yards and five touchdowns in a win at Bishop Timon-St. Jude. Timon's first year under coach Charlie Comerford was a resurgent one as the Tigers won at Canisius and cracked the top 10 of The News large school poll. Canisius may have had a disappointing regular season, but it came oh-so-close to beating St. Joe's in the MMA semifinals, which were decided when Kelly threw a touchdown pass, and then a two-point conversion pass, with 18 seconds left in the game.
Last year's records: St. Joe's, 8-4, 4-0; St. Francis, 8-3, 3-1; Bishop Timon-St. Jude, 8-3, 2-2; Canisius, 4-7, 1-3; Cardinal O'Hara, 1-9, 0-4. St. Mary's went 4-5, beating O'Hara for the first time in seven seasons and losing to Timon twice (once in the playoffs, where St. Mary's was the automatic No. 6 seed).
2011 All-Western New York underclassmen: St. Joe's sophomore DB Nigel Davis was a second-team selection. Bishop Timon-St. Jude juniors QB Ryan Dougherty and K Tom Gioia and sophomore RB Adam DiMillo were honorable mentions, as was Canisius junior WR Denzel Benton.
2011 all-league first-team underclassmen: Bishop Timon-St. Jude juniors QB Ryan Dougherty, LB Brad Wellenzohn and K Tom Gioia as well as sophomore OL Ryan Byrne; St. Joe's sophomores LB Roderick Payne and DB Nigel Davis; St. Francis junior DE Jarrett Dolegala.
Pre-snap read: Last year the excitement was rooted in big names, this year's is about who will step into those front-running roles. Timon remains a team that trails many in roster numbers, but it has some of the best returning talent, including strong-armed QB Dougherty. St. Joe's turns to last year's backup QB in Tyler Hill, who has some of the fastest, most dangerous weapons in Western New York in all-around standouts Payne and Davis. St. Francis doesn't have Lynch, but it has the running back who picked up just fine for him in the second half of last year's title game in powerful senior RB Alex Misterman, as well as some intriguing transfers. Canisius has big lineman Ryan Hunter, who has committed to Bowling Green, along with two speedsters who put on a show in last year's epic semifinal loss to St. Joe's in Benton and sophomore RB Qadree Ollison.
Week One must-see games: All teams are playing nonleaguers, with the most high-profile being a rare nonleague showdown between Monsignor Martin and Section VI large schools as Timon visits Williamsville South at 7 p.m. All the other games are Saturday, with every team facing an opponent from Section V (Rochester area). Canisius (vs. McQuaid, 1 p.m.) and St. Joe's (vs. Franklin, 2 p.m.) both open at home, as does St. Francis, which hosts perennial state power Aquinas at 7 p.m. Saturday. Aquinas has a 23-game win streak against Monsignor Martin teams dating back to 2005.
Scrimmage Saturday: The first day teams could scrimmage was Saturday. Check out notes, quotes, video and reader observations from the action at the Prep Talk blog at buffalonews.com.
Live chats kick off tonight: The first of this season's weekly live chats will start at 9 p.m. at buffalonews.com.
At buffalonews.com: Review the complete week-by-week schedule at the high school home page; at the Prep Talk blog, read training-camp reports from nine schools and watch video from players and coaches from Orchard Park, St. Francis, St. Joe's and Williamsville South.
The countdown concludes: This is the final installment. You can review each Section VI division from Class AA to D at buffalonews.com.
Season preview coming Thursday: The annual preview issue will have capsules and schedules for all 81 teams in Western New York along with feature stories, a must-see cover and everything else one needs to know about the 2012 season.
Attention coaches and ADs – send rosters to Section VI: If coaches have not done so already, they need to email a roster – in spreadsheet form – to Section VI via email@example.com.

b-Just love the look of this jacket! Can you tell us who the pattern designer / publisher of the pattern is? I would like to try this one .
Thanks for the comment, kquilter. I've made 5 or 6 of this particular jacket and love, love, love the pattern. You can order it online at http://www.petitepluspatterns.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=202. I've tried several others and they have all been wonderful. Petite Plus patterns are designed with a D cup so less altering is required. They are easy to lengthen for taller plus sizes too. There's also a DVD on how to make this jacket and it is great, although I use a combination of methods, including some from the Jackets for Real People DVD from Palmer/Pletsch with Marta Alto (buy it here: http://www.palmerpletsch.com/dvd-videos.htm). Palmer/Pletsch also sells the jacket interfacing I recommend on this site. It's the best I've used.
Wow. love to see a dress form that is realistic. I may have to get someone to help me make one.
I am going to mark my form (Bee) as you did. What did you use, painter tape?
Looks great!

Skip to comments.Segregation by income in Houston is among the starkest [rich live by rich, poor live by poor]
Posted on 08/02/2012 5:28:05 AM PDT by Cincinatus' Wife
Roll back the clock to 1980 and Greater Houston looks quite a bit different.Some of the tall buildings, meandering toll roads and shiny professional sports venues aren't there, of course, but of more significance is the absence of many places that Houstonians now call home.
As the metro area's population doubled over the past three decades, extensive developments and master-planned communities popped up or expanded to serve those with the means to buy spanking new homes on the suburban fringe. As for those of little means - many of them immigrants, legal and otherwise - they increasingly crowded into older, low-income neighborhoods abandoned by residents who lost jobs or found better housing elsewhere.
The result, according to a new study released Wednesday by the Pew Research Center, is a dubious honor: Houston leads the way among the nation's 10 largest metropolitan areas when it comes to affluent folks living among others who are affluent, and poor living with poor. Pew said residential income segregation is increasing across the country and especially in Texas and the Southwest.
Of the nation's 30 top metro areas, San Antonio, Houston and Dallas command the medals podium in Pew's Residential Income Segregation Index. In Houston, the percentage of upper-income households in census tracts with a majority of upper-income households increased from 7 in 1980 to 24 in 2010. Likewise, low-income households in majority low-income tracts jumped from 25 to 37.
Income inequality
The Pew researchers stopped short of saying precisely why Texas' major cities lead what has become a national trend. Rapid growth has a lot to do with it, they said. But there are other causes they found of particular concern............
"The real challenge for the future of America is not a race divide but a class divide,"...Stephen Klineberg, a Rice University sociologist......
(Excerpt) Read more at chron.com ...
In other news..... July 26, 2012 Houston Tops Our List Of America's Coolest Cities......"The Bayou City may not be the first place you associate with being hip or trendy. But Houston has something many other major cities dont: jobs. With the local economy humming through the recession, Houston enjoyed 2.6% job growth last year and nearly 50,000 Americans flocked there in response particularly young professionals. In fact, the median age of a Houston resident is a youthful 33.
The result? Over the past decade, the dreary corporate cityscape has been quietly transforming. Stylish housing developments have popped up downtown, restaurants have taken up residence in former factories and art galleries like the Station Museum have been inhabiting warehouses.".....
They need to run the data looking at education, age, crime (vics and perps), IQ, etc.
Well, at the Reverend Ike used to say: the best thing you can do for poor people is to not become one of them.
Having said that, I canceled my subscription to the Chronicle rag 7 years ago. It is your typical editorial board gaggle of fetus killing, pervert loving, God mocking and ChickFiLa hating Obama voters.
So what they found out is that rich people don't build mansions in the middle of the hood, and that poor people don't rent shacks on the ocean.
Wow, this is groundbreaking stuff.
Well, we certainly can't have that!
Obviously, we must all share the misery. Except, of course, for the commissars, who will get the penthouse with the view, the mansion by the beach...
What they need to do is force the rich people move into the slums and "bus" the shiftless...I mean disadvantaged into the gated communities. Problem solved.
What they want is everyone in "affordable" [state doled out housing] and using mass transit.
I think the author being a far leftist fruitcake read the following article http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2913357/posts , and wanted to contribute to the cause.
He seems to me to be scorning the natural order of GOD given liberty as is common to the Leftist mentality.
When driving thru the poor part of Tucson, I never see Tom Cruise working on his front yard, or Julia Roberts cleaning her car - the one on the cement blocks. I guess Hollywood is full of racists. Why else would the rich not live in a poor neighborhood?
Maybe the Hollywood types just hate hispanics. I'd probably see some of them if I drove thru the black parts of LA...right?
In other breaking news, it is reported the rich have more money than the poor!
Looking across the tracks at the nicer neighborhoods used to provide incentive and motivate people to work harder and smarter and pull themselves up the economic ladder.
Now the difference in economic strata just provides a reason to whine about "social justice" and clamor for more socialistic wealth redistribution.
I'm sorry...I couldn't read much beyond the first few paragraphs when the shocking revelation that rich people liked to live in rich neighborhoods was announced.
Bill Clinton is a racist who lives in a wealthy neighborhood.
Apparently they've never been to Detroit, where crossing 8 Mile Road is like crossing the Mexican border.
Wonder how many of the poor were deposited in Houston from New Orleans after Katrina. Bet they're still waiting from Uncle Sam to load them up on a bus and take them back.
Bingo, correct!
Residential Income Segregation Index ?
I guess that means they don't have any section 8 housing in River Oaks?
Of course, there are still plenty of wealthy neighborhoods in Harris County, closer to the center city, but many folks with the means to move out of the county have done so. In all likelihood, they view declining schools, increasing property taxes, and increasing crime rates as the inevitable consequence of Houston's transformation to a minority-majority city run by liberal Democrats.
Similar population patterns are evident in many other metro areas. My home is in Union County, NC, just outside the increasingly blue Mecklenburg County (Charlotte). It is no coincidence that Union County is the fastest growing county in the state. Lower property taxes, better schools by all statistical measures, large-lot single-family residential zoning, lower crime, and solidly conservative/Republican residents (yes, even our Northern friends who have flooded in); but still convenient to the assets Charlotte has (at least for now).
The fastest growing county in Tennessee? That would be Williamson County, which adjoins Davidson County (Nashville). An almost identical dynamic applies there.
Political and business "establishment" leaders in Charlotte, in Nashville, and in many other growing Sunbelt cities are constantly talking up "regional co-operation," even suggesting multi-county tax overlay districts, multi-county school boards, and multi-county central planning. Residents of peripheral counties are justifiably skeptical.
As noted in Post #1 there is a lot of renewal in downtown Houston (and a lot of very large, long standing high-end enclaves in in metro Houston pockets uptown, downtown, etc, — there are several business centers in Harris County).
Now of course there are depressed areas - "Wards" (long standing pockets of welfare constituents) like the one Sheilia Jackson Lee nurtures and represents.
Funny thing is that they used scream about what Kipling called "The White Man's Burden".
Pap, right? Not the way he put it. He said that the above secret should be implemented by living well below your means in a neighbourhood with houses less costly than what you can afford.
He lives in a neighbourhood where the average family income is somewhere around $120,000 per year. He himself clears a lot more than that. As a result, he's less stressed than his neighbours when it comes to ye olde treadmill.
Admittedly, his advice isn't practical for many. In a nutshell, it's this: see how much house you can afford, see what neighbourhood it corresponds to, and then knock it down one level and move into a neighbourhood corresponding to that lower notch. The trouble with this approach is that it only works if you wear your wealth lightly, which he does. (He drives a sporty Saturn.)
But there is something to it if you can find a safe and reasonably well-kept neighbourhood where you can live quietly below your means. I know of another fellow who was the national vice-president in charge of retail sales for a big Canadian brokerage firm who lived contentedly in a 2,000-2,500 square foot Toronto house with 40' frontage. The way he lived, you'd never know who he really was unless you knew him personally.
I remember when the racist crack head Mayor of DC, Marion Barry, put ghetto housing in the middle of a nice neighborhood of DC. He was so proud of his bad self. Soon, he was doing time.
Several years ago I met a young couple filled with liberal idealism and verve who just arrived in our metropolitan area. They informed me that they chose to buy a home in a lower class neighborhood near downtown (not Houston) so their children could experience the rich diversity of the surrounding area. Not being one to call a man a fool to his face, I managed some remark such as "That's interesting".
Well, this wide eyed quest for diversity lasted about a year before they moved. They discovered they didn't want their kids exposed to the type of diversity the neighborhood offered in abundance: crude behavior and language, not to mention the crime and depravity (and that was just the school atmosphere).
I'm old enough to remember when poor didn't mean criminal but all too often it does in cities.
In my informed opinion, it's impossible to live in Houston and NOT be miserable, regardless of income.
Sorry, but Texas heat is enough without high humidity, traffic gridlock, and dirty air.
But Houston does have jobs. Only reason to stay there.
This is a plea for one of two things - to either hand those who cannot afford luxuries more, or to take away luxuries from those who can afford them.
Once upon a time, living within one's means was an admired trait in this country. Now, "moving on up" (I hope Sherman Hemsley has reached a lofty new place!) is being supplanted with "give it to me for free", despite that "free" means stealing from those who have earned it.
How many rich athletes live in the Ghetto's???
Magic Johnson?
Tiger Woods???
How about Bill Gates?
This is beyond stupid.
What's next? Assignment by the government to be told WHERE you are going to live?
Who writes this garbage? My neighborhood is economically mixed, and we have the gangsta graffiti on the fences of nice houses to prove it! One of west Houston's larger gang battles was fought in front of my house a few weeks back. At least 88 gun shots were fired, judging by the spent brass that the police picked up. It sounded like a war. Yet, it never made the news that I am aware of.
Well, yes. Rich folks don't live in trailer parks, and poor folks don't live in mansions - unless they're getting Section 8.
They could have walked it by now.
Have the Pew people FReepmail me and I'll introduce them to Chicago-style segregation.
It's one of the little problems Obama never had time to clean up before becoming President.
Thank Obama, though, at least the water levels in Lake Michigan are falling.
I thought Houston recently passed zoning restrictions. I was sorry to see that because it is the last bastion of big city zoning liberty left.
Take a look at any major city and see what zoning restrictions have done.
I recently heard a proposal to add additional "states" here in America. You'd carve out large urban areas and their surrounding counties. They would then receive statehood.
This would allow conservative areas to remain conservative while liberal areas remained liberal. I know it would work well in Chicago, Cook County, Illinois.
Had you heard of something like this?
Not surprising - productive citizens with a strong work ethic tent to live around those of similar persuasion, just as freeloading lazy deadbeats tend to migrate towards others with similar traits.
From a commenter's review of "Spreading the Wealth: How Obama is Robbing the Suburbs to Pay for the Cities"
Stanley Kurtz
"Kurtz details how Obama has long believed that the residents who fled the cities are racists and need to be dragged back into the cities to help solve the problems festering there. If Obama's plans for this forced redistribution became common knowledge, then it would be cause his re-election campaign to crash and burn.
Six short and to-the-point chapters entitled "Abolish the Suburbs, Manhattanizing America, In Up to His Eyeballs, Saul Alinsky Radical, A Suburb of the Mind, Redistribution Revolution, Fooled, Ruled, and Schooled" and "Obama in a New Light" plus lots of sources and notes and a good index make up the guts of this tome.
For those naïve suburban voters who have only been paying attention to mainstream media, if following the news at all, they don't realize that the so-called trillion-dollar stimulus plan was really just a poverty program that was intentionally mis-named to fool the voters. That's why it had almost no effect and certainly produced no improvements.
For more than two decades, Obama and his fellow radical community activists, agitators have been working toward punishing all those people who voted with their feet and fled the cities and left them filled with only poor and minority residents. "Suburbs are for sellouts...For Obama, the suburbs are a defect in the very structure of American life. That is why the president backs his old friends' movement to abolish them."
"'We are battling apartheid in America.' So said Obama's onetime organizing mentor Mike Kruglik in 2005, explaining the philosophy behind his crusade for regional equity. At the the time, Kruglik was directing the regionalist efforts of the Gamaliel Foundation, a national network of community organizations that Obama himself had helped launch in the mid-1980s. Today Kruglik leads the Gamailied offshoot Building One American, which fights for regionalism in partnerships with the Obama White House, although few Americans have any idea that this is the case."
To the radicals, those suburban racists deserve to have their wealth taken away from them and given to the less fortunate but Obama can't publicly proclaim the details of the regulations to abolish the suburbs because, "Much of Obama's base, to say nothing of independents, would be alienated by the regionalist agenda; this explains the president's reticence. Openness about his antisuburban goals would expose Obama as standing to the left of many of his supporters. Middle-class African Americans and modestly successful suburbanites now disposed to vote for the president might think twice if they knew what Obama had in store for them."
"Kruglik and Obama plan to overcome this liability by splitting the suburbs against themselves, creating an alliance between cities and the relatively less well-off inner-ring suburbs."
They hope to achieve this basic change in America by expanding cities into regions that will all come under the control of the nearest cities. Obama and his allies consider everything about the suburbs to be bad. That's where the money has fled. That's where the SUV's and autos pollute the environment. That's where valuable farmland and forests are absorbed to build more urban sprawl. The suburbanites need to be dragged back into the cities and their love affair with the car crushed.
Mass transit is intended to stop the building of highways in order to help eliminate the use of automobiles. The health care laws are really designed to help bring about the redistribution of wealth from the suburbs to the poor.
This is an important goal of Obama and the leftists and if Obama serves another term, he will be able to punish the middle and upper class residents living outside the problems of American cities.
Kurtz was blunt about what this book was intended for. He wants to awaken the voting taxpayers to the hidden agenda that is being concealed from them. He wants this information to become the coffin nails in the upcoming Presidential election because Obama can't win the next election without the suburban voters being ignorant of his planned power grabs.
He also knows that this information will be totally ignored and hidden from the general public by the so-called mainstream media that has so much invested in the candidate they foisted upon the nation to prove that they weren't racists. Now they don't want to admit what they did and how much damage it has already done to the nation."
And from D'Souza's next book's inside flap:
No, because America as we know itwealthy, powerful, assertiveis not what Obama wants. He wants a smaller America, a poorer America, and America unable to exert its will, and America happy to be one that other nations might riseall in the name of global fairness. To Obama, the hated "one percent" isn't just wealthy Americans; it is America itself. In Obama's view, America needs to be taken down a notch.
That is the startling conclusion of bestselling author Dinesh D'Souza. Building on his previous bestseller on Barack Obama, The Roots of Obama's Ragewhich Newt Gingrich called, "Stunning the most profound insight I have read in the last six years"D'Souza shows how Obama's goal to downsize America is in plain sight but ignored by everyone.
D'Souza lays out what Obama plans to do in a second administrationa makeover of America so drastic that the "shining city on a hill" will become a shantytown in a rather dangerous global village.
In Obama's America you'll learn:
How Obama plans to use debt as a weapon of economic mass destruction to downsize the United States
How a second Obama term could be fatal to Isrealand to American interests in the Middle East
A superpower disarmed: why drastic defense cuts are only the beginning
How Obama plans to make us more dependent on foreign energy suppliers
What the world will be like when America is a debt-ridden, second-tier economy and other countries, like China, India, and even Brazil, are wealthier and dominant
"Obama's America: Unmaking the American Dream"

New Detroit Lions coach Jim Caldwell may tab a familiar face to run his offense.
According to a report from CBS Sports' Jason La Canfora, Indianapolis Colts quarterback coach Clyde Christensen is a top option for Detroit's offensive coordinator position.
Christensen and Caldwell worked together from 2001 -- when Christensen was the offensive coordinator in Tampa Bay and Caldwell was the quarterbacks coach -- through 2011. Christensen served as Caldwell's offensive coordinator in Indianapolis from 2009-11.
When Caldwell was fired by the Colts, new coach Chuck Pagano retained Christensen to work with the team's quarterbacks, including the No. 1 overall draft pick Andrew Luck.
Luck has developed nicely under Christensen. The second-year signal-caller finished the 2013 campaign by completing 60.2 percent of his passes with a 23-9 touchdown-to-interception ratio, all despite losing top wide receiver Reggie Wayne to an injury in the middle of the year.
Caldwell could have competition for Christensen's services. He's also been linked as a coordinator option for Ken Whisenhunt's staff in Tennessee.
In addition to Christensen, former University of Florida defensive coordinator, and current Ravens defensive backs coach, Teryl Austin continues to be mentioned as the favorite for the Lions defensive coordinator position.
Austin has worked with Caldwell at multiple stops, including Penn State, Wake Forest and Baltimore.
Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press is also reporting Rutgers offensive coordinator Ron Prince will be on Caldwell's staff as an assistant.

The very title of show was very compelling to watch!! Techno heads from competing companies have to compare and contrast their technologies.. how else this discussion could have been?
I am not sure comparing v8 innovation to Dart innovation is same. As a developer I would not program only for chrome.. though I love google technologies.. I got a feeling the expectation from google (or Lars) is MS could have used Dart VM in IE rather than innovating in JavaScript space. Would be big good for community if all big heads agree on common VM.
But the overall show was good to watch.. nice mix of technical and business issues... wish there are more shows like this.

Come fall, Pocopson Township can expect its population to swell by 100 people, and residents can only hope they'll be model citizens.
After more than a year of deliberations, the Board of Supervisors on Monday night voted 2-1 to approve Chester County's plans for the construction of a 100-inmate work-release center on the prison grounds in Pocopson.
The board approved the land-development application with several conditions. Supervisors H. William Sellers and James Kiernan voted in favor of the application, while Bruce Yelton cast the opposing vote.

How long would it take to try it?
There's more than one "-xx" in "DE500-xx". As I recall, I used a -BA
in my AlpSta 200 4/233 systems (back when I used my AlpSta 200 4/233
systems). I'm too far away to check at the moment. I'd expect the SPD
or some other official document to have an authoratative answer. A
search of comp.os.vms over the past decade might offer some hints, too.
What's wrong with the built-in (slower) interface? Not very many PCI

There has been a lot of time and digital ink devoted to a whole host of topics throughout these NHL playoffs. The most topical arguments have been over which star player is the best, with opinions and beliefs seemingly changing after every night of action.
If one guy is good, then the other, by default, must be bad. Two players can't possibly both be equally proficient because, well, that sort of cosmic imbalance would cause the world to blow up before our very eyes. The new CBA covers all of this in extensive detail if you examine it closely enough.
MORE: The craziest game of the playoffs | Stanley Cup final schedule
Specifically, this is about the Sidney Crosby/Jonathan Toews debate, with the former's early playoff exit and latter's continued postseason success adding fuel to the fire. Both are assuredly great talents, though it's pretty clear that one is on a whole 'nother level from essentially every single hockey player on this planet.
It's hardly a knock against Toews, who in his own right has accomplished nearly everything possible by a 26-year-old. Unfortunately much of those team achievements — involving 18 or so other players, and coaches and management — are bestowed upon him because of the nebulous manner in which we attribute team success to leadership, captaincy, and other intangibles.
Yet for whatever reason, this one-sided "rivalry" continues to be pedalled — maybe because they're both Canadian or something. A far more compelling and reasonable discussion involving Toews, a rival and their respective places in the NHL's hierarchy has played out in the Western Conference Final.
Anze Kopitar really is Toews' perfect foil. Some of that has to do with perception. The Los Angeles Kings' success is often attributed to various other sources, before finally reluctantly landing on their best player.
"Sure, Jonathan Quick allowed 16 goals in 3 games to dig the Kings a seemingly insurmountable hole, but did you see all of those unnecessarily out-of-position acrobatic saves? Awesome! And then to top it all off, he skated by his bench and yelled at his teammates. If things randomly didn't work out, maybe we'd be talking about how he alienated them all by showing them up in front of a national crowd, but it didn't, so let's blissfully ignore that!"
"Marian Gaborik is scoring so many goals! Did you know that he once had an excellent playoff run in Minnesota, so it totally makes sense that he's running amok now because he has a history of being clutch? And speaking of clutch, let's talk about Justin Williams' Game 7 record."
"Yes, let's! Let's also talk about the great job Darryl Sutter has with this team, and the resiliency Dustin Brown and Mike Richards have shown in bouncing back from putrid regular seasons!"
"Now that we've exhausted all of those avenues, it's time we wrap this thing up by quickly mentioning the job Anze Kopitar has done as the team's No. 1 center, best player, and guy that makes most of those guys we just praised look significantly better than they really are."
Maybe it's because he comes from an country that most people couldn't point out on a globe (at least prior to these past Winter Olympics), or maybe it's because he's kind of weird-looking by conventional standards. It seems rather shallow, but we'd be kidding ourselves if we didn't acknowledge that Anze Kopitar would be viewed differently were he Andrew King, from Mississauga, Ontario.
Luckily for him, the numbers don't play favorites. And what they tell us is that for all of the differences Kopitar and Toews may superficially present, their production has been nearly identical since Toews joined the league in 2007:
I've gone ahead and compiled some more in-depth data for us to continue this discussion in a Google Doc that you can access at your viewing pleasure. (Note: all of the data is for 5v5 play, and all of it was found at either Behind The Net or Extra Skater.)
What you'll quickly notice from scanning that spreadsheet is just how important Anze Kopitar is to his team:
Over the past three seasons, the Kings have handily outscored the opposition with Kopitar out there (plus-52) and been awfully susceptible whenever he has been on the bench (minus-19). And while the team as a whole has impressive possession numbers even without Kopitar's services, they skyrocket into the otherworldly 60-percent range when he hops onto the ice.
Toews' numbers themselves aren't too shabby; all of Chicago's already impressive totals are accentuated with his stellar play. The cushy circumstances Toews finds himself in, though, presents a problem in evaluating just how responsible he is for his team's exploits
He was flanked this season by Marian Hossa and Patrick Sharp, two thoroughly impressive wingers in their own right, for nearly 70 percent of his 5v5 ice time. Further complicating matters is that he started such a heavy dose of shifts in the offensive zone. That, combined with his linemates, inflated his numbers to at least some degree. For whatever it's worth, Kopitar's two most common linemates this season were Justin Williams and Dwight King.
Ironically enough, the formerly reliable depth the Blackhawks boasted, allowing Toews to crush the competition in a softer role, has progressively crumbled throughout these playoffs.
With Toews on the ice at 5v5, the team has outscored the opposition 14-9, and controlled 54.2 percent of all shot attempts. Without him, those figures drop to a minus-3 goal differential and 47.2 corsi for %. Corey Crawford's spotty play against LA has garnered the most blame for Chicago's 3-1 hole, but the noticeable drop in play from the supporting cast surely deserves criticism, too.
The Blackhawks may very well still find a way to come back and win the series, and Toews will continue to diversify his already sparkling portfolio in the coming years. But based on the information we have, it's about time we put Kopitar in the discussion of elite NHL centers. Maybe, just maybe, winning a second Stanley Cup while leading the league in postseason scoring will do the trick.

Kaspersky Lab's free utility Kaspersky Security Scan, designed to diagnose a computer's security status and produce up-to-date information about the threats and vulnerabilities existing in the system, detects dangerous malware that is often overlooked by popular commercial security solutions. The modern anti-malware technologies incorporated into Kaspersky Security Scan have helped thousands of users around the world to detect viruses and Trojans that were active on their computers.
The developers of modern commercial and free security solutions assure users that with their software the computer is completely secure. In reality, this is not always true: as Kaspersky Lab found out in an early 2013 survey, even popular, tried-and-tested solutions can overlook a dangerous malware program and fail to inform users about a threat.
For example, in a study conducted by Kaspersky Lab, a Trojan called ZAccess was detected on a large number of computers protected by other vendors' security solutions. Once installed, this malicious program can download extra modules with which it performs various malicious activities: it spoofs search engine results, automatically follows links suggested by cybercriminals, downloads files, etc.
Sality is another malicious program uncovered in Kaspersky Lab's study. After a successful infection, this piece of malware disables security solutions installed on the victim computer and blocks access to security vendors' web domains. To prevent manual deletion of the virus, all attempts to use Windows Task Manager and Registry Editor are also blocked. After installation, the program downloads a number of extra malicious modules, such as a module for stealing confidential data of the computer owner (including logins and passwords to accounts in various web services), a module for sending spam, and a module for turning the victim computer into a tool to brute force passwords.
ZAccess and Sality are just two of the numerous malware programs Kaspersky Lab specialists detected on the computers involved in the study. The conclusion is startling: even tried-and-true security solutions cannot ensure complete security and require a second opinion.
Second opinion solution
Kaspersky Security Scan is Kaspersky Lab's free utility specifically designed as a second opinion solution that runs an extra check on a computer. It scans for viruses, Trojans, worms and other malicious objects. The utility scans the Windows operating system as well as applications for vulnerabilities and potentially insecure settings, such as the enabled auto-launch of external devices connected to the computer. The cloud-based Kaspersky Security Network is used as a permanent source of up-to-date information about active malicious programs and vulnerabilities. In addition, Kaspersky Security Scan receives daily updates of its antivirus databases, which are the same as those used by Kaspersky Lab's commercial products. With all of this, the utility always has the latest information and can effectively detect the most recent threats. When the scan is completed, Kaspersky Security Scan delivers a detailed report of any problems identified, and suggests a solution.
An important advantage of Kaspersky Security Scan is that it does not conflict with other security solutions. This means users do not have to uninstall or disable their main anti-malware product before running an extra check with Kaspersky Lab's utility.
"Kaspersky Lab's top priority is to protect users from modern cyberthreats," says Oleg Ishanov, Director of Anti-Malware Research at Kaspersky Lab. "To achieve this, we have developed Kaspersky Security Scan - a second opinion solution which evaluates how well protected a user's Windows environment is, and to check it for malware. The statistics collected by Kaspersky Lab's experts show that such a check is highly relevant, even on computers that run security solutions from reputable vendors. The free utility will also be useful to those who do not use security software for one reason or another, but would like to check the security status of their computers and make sure there are no infections. However, we strongly advise all users to purchase and install a comprehensive security solution, such as Kaspersky Internet Security 2013."

IN 1940 Hamilton, Soley and Eichorn1 described a method of localizing administered radioactive iodine in the human thyroid. Patients were given an oral tracer dose of radioactive iodine prior to operation. Histologic sections were made of the excised portion of the gland and the secretions placed in contact with unexposed photographic film. Areas of uptake of radioactive iodine in the section produced a blackening on the film. With this technic, these authors found the greatest uptake of iodine in areas of hyperplasia. Of great interest was their observation that the carcinomatous tissue in two thyroid studies showed no uptake. Since their publication, there have been a few reports of thyroid carcinomas showing appreciable uptake of iodine.
These authors also noted that the concentration of radioactive iodine was great in the more cellular regions of the thyroid and did not show any predilection for the colloid. LeBlond2 in 1942,

Feisty Tigers roll No. 1 Tide
AUBURN, Ala. That crazy tipped pass for a long winning TD is now the second-most stunning and improbable play of Auburn's wild season.
Yes, the Tigers found a way to top "The Immaculate Deflection."
Chris Davis returned a missed field-goal attempt more than 100 yards for a touchdown on the final play to lift No. 4 Auburn to a 34-28 victory over No. 1 Alabama on Saturday, upending the two-time defending national champions' BCS hopes and preserving the Tigers' own.
"We're a team of destiny," Davis said. "We won't take no for an answer."
He delivered a play that deserves its own nickname. Say the Happiest Return. Or the saddest, depending on which side of the Iron Bowl you sit.
Davis caught the ball about 9 yards deep in the end zone after freshman Adam Griffith's 57-yard attempt fell short. He then sprinted down the left sideline and cut back with nothing but teammates around him in a second straight hard-to-fathom finish for the Tigers (11-1, 7-1 Southeastern Conference).
"I knew when I caught the ball I would have room to run," Davis said. "I knew they would have big guys on the field to protect on the field goal.
"When I looked back, I said, 'I can't believe this.' "
Auburn clinched a spot in the SEC championship game with the stunning victory.
The Crimson Tide (11-1, 7-1) several times seemed poised to continue its run toward the first three-peat in modern college football.
They took a 28-21 lead on a 99-yard TD pass, but couldn't put away the Tigers, who tied it on a 39-yard TD pass with 32 seconds left.
Asked if it was the biggest win of his career, Tigers coach Gus Malzahn said: "It ranks right up there."
The Tigers put it away just when overtime was on tap. The public address announcer in the stadium had already declared the game 28-28 at the end of regulation.
But Alabama got 1 second restored and one more play after a review of T.J. Yeldon's run to the Auburn 39.
That gave the Tide coach Nick Saban a chance to try the long field goal — and now he probably wished he never did, given the stunning result.

YOUNGSTOWN - Police Chief Rod Foley said he is happy with the 11-year sentence an East Side man received Wednesday on drug charges.
Foley said DeWaylyn Colvin, 31, of Nelson Avenue and a ''loose association'' of others were responsible for a lot of violence in his East Side neighborhood.
Colvin was sentenced by Mahoning County Common Pleas Court Judge Lou D'Apolito after pleading guilty to charges of trafficking in drugs, possession of drugs, having weapons while under disability and engaging in a pattern of corrupt activity.
Colvin and six others, five from Youngstown and one from Lake Milton, were indicted in December 2011 on accusations of running what prosecutors termed a ring that distributed heroin. Foley said Colvin and his group used a lot of violence to carry out their work.
''He had individuals who would enforce his will and his form of street justice,'' Foley said.
Assistant Prosecutor Martin Desmond said Colvin and the other members of the ring were responsible for a lot of violence, including several shootings, and they were dealing a high quantity of drugs before they were caught.
In 2005, Colvin, while serving a federal sentence on drug charges, was sentenced to six years in prison after pleading guilty to voluntary manslaughter for the July 13, 2004, murder of Eric Martinez, 16, of Jackson Street, who was shot to death in the driveway of a Josephine Street home. Colvin showed up at St. Elizabeth Health Center about an hour later with five gunshot wounds.
Of the co-defendants in the drug case, two already were sentenced after pleading guilty, one is set for a trial and one is set for sentencing in April. An additional defendant has been undergoing drug treatment and has a hearing in August.
Another co-defendant, Quintin Prieto, 28, of Liberty Road, was sentenced to two years community control on Wednesday for the charge of tampering with evidence.
Desmond said Colvin wasted no time after getting out of prison to get right back into dealing drugs. Foley said that was his downfall.
''The lure of easy drug money made him vulnerable to us, and that's why we were able to take him out,'' Foley said.

Showtime (Sun., Sept. 7, 8 p.m. ET)
Timothy Bottoms has the acting challenge of the year in this talky docudrama about the Bush Administration's reaction to the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. Apparently hoping we'll forget that he played George W. as a boob in the Comedy Central series That's My Bush, Bottoms portrays the President here as tough, resolute and a whole lot smarter than his detractors might think. Making Bottoms's job even tougher, the film-makers include news footage of the real Bush, as if to remind us that the lookalike actor is only pretending. Overburdened, Bottoms fails to deliver a convincing performance.
The supporting characters—including Dick Cheney (Lawrence Pressman), Donald Rumsfeld (John Cunningham) and Condoleezza Rice (24's Penny Johnson Jerald)—have much to say in meeting after meeting, but their main task is to look impressed by Bush's strength and decisiveness.

I know. I know. It's awfully late in the calendar year for something on golf, but I submit the following nevertheless. A friend e-mailed this list of observations and what-not, and I thought I'd pass it along.
I mean, what's a blogger for?
Read these 15 tidbits and somewhere, I promise, you'll nod your head in agreement.
1) Golf can best be defined as an endless series of tragedies obscured by the occasional miracle, followed by a good bottle of beer.
2) Golf! You hit down to make the ball go up. You swing left and the ball goes right. The lowest score wins. And on top of that, the winner buys the drinks.
3) If you find you do not mind playing golf in the rain, the snow, even during a hurricane, here's a valuable tip: Your life is in trouble.
4) Golfers who try to make everything perfect before taking the shot rarely make a perfect shot.
5) The term "mulligan" is really a contraction of the phrase "maul it again."
6) A "gimme" can best be defined as an agreement between two golfers, neither of whom can putt very well.
7) An interesting thing about golf is that no matter how badly you play, it is always possible to get worse.
8) Golf's a hard game to figure. One day you'll go out and slice it and shank it, hit into all the traps and miss every green. The next day you go out and for no reason at all you really stink.
9) Golf is like marriage: If you take yourself too seriously it won't work . . . and both are expensive.
10) The best wood in most amateurs' bags is the pencil.
11) To some golfers, the greatest handicap is the ability to add correctly.
12) In golf, some people tend to get confused with all the numbers. They shoot a six, yell fore and write five.
13) Swing easy. Hit hard. Huh?
14) If you find yourself pleased that you locate more balls in the rough than you actually have lost, your focus is totally wrong and your personality might not be right for golf. It is also just a matter of time before the IRS investigates your business.
15) And, finally, a question: Why is it twice as difficult to hit a ball over water than sand?
-- Bud Poliquin

Morgan Freeman began acting in grade school plays at age nine. By the time he was in high school he was on the radio in Memphis. He turned down an acting scholarship to Jackson State University in Mississippi to join the Air Force, but after his military service he began a slow, steady climb to show business prominence, initially as a dancer and later as an actor in touring companies.

If you own an aircraft and lease it out, can you be liable for damages caused when the lessee is operating it?

Migration is a process that transforms and shapes both the sending and receiving societies. Depending on a number of economic, political and historical factors, the outcomes range from ethno-religious clashes to "melting together". "Crossborder" migrations, including refugee movements, can lead to situations in which the host society, or part of it, shares the ethno-religious identity of the migrants. In such cases, the focus of interaction between the host community and migrants may become similarities as well as differences. Despite the common ethno-religious identity, the encounter of immigrants and natives may pose challenges for both parties. Reinterpreting and redefining the identity, and its symbols and practices may call forth a range of configurations including conflicting claims on the identity, new sub-ethno-religious identities or new solidarities.
In the context of migration, understanding identity formation and drawing boundaries of the collective identity entails considering historical, social, economic, religious, symbolic, cultural parameters and representations.
The purpose of our proposed session is to discuss the rethinking, reformulation and repositioning of identities based on common ethno-religious background as interpreted by the immigrants and the host society. Papers dealing with such cases both in historical and contemporary settings are welcome. Although we intend to limit the geographical focus of the session to Balkans, Middle East, and the Mediterranean basin, cases from other places may be considered, too.
If you are interested to join us please send your abstracts (max. 300 words) to panel organizers Lülüfer Körükmez (firstname.lastname@example.com) or Sinan Dincer (firstname.lastname@example.com) by 26 April 2013.

After my test week with the N900, I was pretty sure that I just needed a basic smartphone able to do Google Sync. I'm a dirty cheap bastard, and I don't like long-term commitments with carriers, so I decided to buy the HTC Snap. It's Windows Mobile 6.5 based with qwerty keyboard and it works on the 100% unlimited plan from Mobilicity.
This phone surprised me in a very good way. I was expecting the worse from a Windows-based phone, and the interface is very good, the connection with Google works wonders, everything is very intuitive and easy to do. Doesn't look like a Windows OS at all :)
The downside is the AWFUL Windows Marketplace: the apps are expensive and, yeah, totally uninteresting. I just gave up on trying to find apps after a while, don't even bother.
Guilty pleasure: playing Solitaire on the subway. Gotta love this!
I was happy with the phone, just having problems with Mobilicity coverage. THEN SOMETHING HAPPENED: exactly one month after I bought the toy, I fell asleep on the Trinity-Bellwoods Park and had my purse stolen – yep, with the phone. Is it strange to say that I miss my Windows Phone? Microsoft has done something that I like and I'm not afraid to admit it.
I spent more than a week deciding wether I should buy an Android, like Fabio's, or use some old phone on a prepaid carrier. After being stolen, the cheapest solution seemed wiser and I'm just a crappy prepaid phone owner now.

DERRY, N.H. -- The polls show former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney is the front runner for the Republican nomination for president and he is hoping that popularity turns into votes, especially in the early primary state of New Hampshire.
Romney wants to be known as a regular in places like Marianne's Diner. That's why he stopped by the diner this week.
"Thank you. Good to see you," Romney said as he shook several hands of patrons.
It helps that the candidate served as governor next door in Massachusetts. Many here see him as a middle-of-the road Republican, which plays well in the more moderate New Hampshire.
"It's time for somebody to be in the middle, which is one reason right now why I'm very supportive of Mitt Romney, because I think he represents the middle ground more than anybody," one New Hampshire voter told CBN News.
When you're seen as leading the pack, you can count on two things -- the media following your every move and politicos analyzing your chances.
"The sense here is not that he is this formidable front runner. It's that he's the front runner by default," explained James Pindall, the political director of Manchester, N.H., television station WMUR.
That's because most of the field is unknown and most voters haven't made up their minds yet.
With a Mormon faith and questions about changing positions on some social issues, Romney will bypass evangelical-heavy Iowa and focus his effort in New Hampshire.
"For Mitt Romney, the front runner supposedly, but a nominal front runner because he's not got the size of the lead we've seen in past campaigns - everyone knows he has to win New Hampshire," Washington Post Reporter Dan Balz told CBN News.
Romney wants to be seen as an economic turnaround artist.
"To create jobs it helps to have had a job. I had a job for 25 years in the private sector. That experience will help me if I'm elected president to craft solutions that actually make a difference," he said.
Romney's big challenge will be to convince Republican voters that he is a true-blue free market conservative. That might be tough since he devised the Massachusetts-run healthcare plan often compared to Obama's healthcare law.
While he says each state should come up with its own plan, Romney has yet to detail how he would tackle healthcare at the federal level.
"If he can speak convincingly about a de-centralized system, a devolution of power, a Reagan solution and he can be convincing, I think he can get by this issue. But he needs to complete that thought," conservative activist Olive LaMontagne said.
Romney also needs to complete the race and is counting on New Hampshire to give him a strong start.

Ann Romney's opening remarks in her speech at the Republican National Convention caused the crowd to applaud the fact that many Americans in the gulf are facing a storm bearing down upon them.
"I want to talk to you about love," Ann Romney began in her momunmental task to sell Mitt Romney to the American voters.
She made an appeal to mothers. "I love you women. I hear you," she said, as if she was the person running for president, not her husband.
Republican women showed their love for Ann Romney as she played to the audience. She met many of the people who were in attendance during six years of campaigning for her husband's presidential bid. The familiar faces seemed to ease her initial nervousness.
Both Ann Romney and Rick Santorium played to their European immigrant heritage and the fact that America offered them an opportunity for them to escape the horrors of Europe. The European immigrant story is quite different from the emigration heritage of Michelle Obama, our current first lady. The first lady's history is different from the African heritage of the president's Kenyan father, who came to America and fell in love with an American woman of European descent at a time when it was unlawful for a black man to wed a white woman.
Clearly Ann Romney loves Mitt Romney.
Ann Romney talks of Mitt Romney's success and the great life he has made for his family and self. Yet she fails to answer the question why he would make a good president in these tough economic times.
"This man will not fail," Ann Romney says to a round of applauds, a kiss and a hug from her candidate husband bringing to a close her big power play to humanize Mitt Romney.

The Adventures of Pinocchio
After Martin Landau tried to put most of America to sleep with his Oscar speech for "Ed Wood" in 1995, somebody's light-bulb-for-a-brain went off in Hollywood and thought, "Hey, if Martin can be that boring and overbearing in real life, surely he could do that same thing in a movie!"
In a case of typical Hollywood serendipity, another Hollywood genius was watching the original "Pinocchio" at precisely the same moment thinking, "Wouldn't it be great if we could use all our technology and special effects and suck the joy right out of everyone's favorite classic?"
And the live action "Adventures of Pinocchio" was born. You remember the story, right?
Pinocchio has a huge nasal erection in class after telling a lie. Because he's made of wood and has a long nose (an obvious metaphor) the other kids call him Woody. Since all the kids want to be just like Woody, they befriend him and take him to an amusement park where they turn into donkeys after drinking the water. This begs the question, "What's a Woody to do with a bunch of asses?"
Franky, I was shocked. I hadn't been so shocked since playing my "Little Mermaid" video backwards on the advice of the Christian Coalition. (True to their claims, in the "Under the Sea" number you can clearly hear Sebastian the lobster say, "ming foo wurble glee, all hail the sodomite agenda.") While we're at it, why not preface this movie with the animated short of "Heather Has Two Mommies"?
