Where were you when Buster Douglas knocked out Mike Tyson?
They always say people can always recall exactly where they were when a disaster struck. Well, how about when one of the biggest upsets in boxing history occurs?
Do you remember where you were when Buster Douglas knocked out Mike Tyson?

Ah, a young buck. I was just a kid. I was just at the house so it's a bit anti-climactic. Still, I remember. Also remember all of us talking about it at school the next day.

in Jersey of course, I think I was in 8th grade (the 2nd base years, good times) I couldn't believe my eyes when he got knockout I thought he was unstoppable...this moment and when Hopkins beat Trinidad have to be the worst moments in boxing for me.

About the lecture
5G - Getting closer to answers?
5G networks which are anticipated to be soft, green, and super-fast may possibly be deployed in 2020s to satisfy the challenging demands of mobile communication in various scenarios.
After several years of worldwide pursuit of 5G solutions, the campaign on 5G standards has just begun, with diversified proposals on timeline, work scope, key technologies, and spectrum strategy.
The question is: are we getting closer to answers for 5G? Characterised by a mixed set of KPIs like data rates, latency, mobility, energy efficiency, and traffic density, 5G services demand a fundamental revolution on the end to end (E2E) network architecture and key technologies design.
The lecture will give you an overview of CMCC's 5G solutions. E2E network architecture will be presented with UCN (User Centric Network) & SDAI (Soft Defined Air Interface). The corresponding enabling technologies will be presented as imperative solutions for diversified set of usage scenarios. CMCC's views on standardisation timeline and work scope, spectrum strategy, prototyping and field trial plans will also be shared.

9/23/2016 – Like an amusement park ride, recent temperatures have gone up, hovering at 100 degrees on the 18th; back down, to the low 50s overnight midweek; and now they're headed back up with another 100 degree day predicted on the 25th. The result? Picking of white wine grapes is essentially done. Most of the medium-bodied reds, like Pinot Noir, Zinfandel and Syrah are gently fermenting in tanks across the valley. Cabernet Sauvignon is knocking at and crossing over cellar doors. At night, the valley is nearly as bright as day with portable floodlights filling the sky as pickers work feverishly below. Grape trucks loaded with white, yellow and blue bins line the highway each morning as the valley comes to life, ready for another frenzied day.

5. Pharyngitis Brandon Lloyd's pearly whites
When photographer Keith Nordstrom stationed himself near the endzone, pharyngitis he was in position to catch one of the funnier sports photos to come out of this year's season: Brandon Lloyd suspended in midair, pharyngitis catching a touchdown pass, pharyngitis and … grinning. Pharyngitis The photo quickly became meme fodder (okay, pharyngitis so we fueled some of that ourselves.) Nordstrom told us that the photo almost didn't happen because he was considering leaving the game, pharyngitis but we're so glad it did.

"Machine learning, when "computers apply statistical learning techniques to automatically identify patterns in data," is becoming a bigger part of the everyday life of most Americans in ways that are both embraced and debated. For example, websites like Facebook use machine learning for facial recognition, while banks use machine learning to monitor credit card fraud. Still, it can be difficult to grasp exactly how this component of artificial intelligence actually works. This interactive website, authored by Stephanie Yee and Tony Chu, uses R2D3 - a data visualization tool created by Yee and Chu themselves - to help the general public better understand machine learning. Using vivid visualizizations and a concrete example (How would a machine determine if a home was in New York City or San Francisco?), this resource clearly explains the key vocabulary and concepts behind machine learning in an accessible, engaging way."

"The American Museum of Natural History has compiled this collection of twelve two hour-long lesson plans that are designed to provide students with a humanistic perspective on health care and disease. In addition to detailed lesson plans, readers will find ready-made PowerPoint presentations and links to related resources, such as articles and videos. Although these lessons are designed to be completed as a series, they also contain activities that can be completed in shorter time periods or as stand-alone lessons. Sessions facilitate student learning by using a number of compelling central questions, including "How does oppression make the experience of disease and illness different in different cultural contexts?" and "What is the relationship between humans and the microbes that cause disease?" In all, this Curriculum Collection contains lessons and resources that may be of interest to science, social studies, and health educators alike."

"Exploring Computer Science (ECS) is a partnership between the University of California Los Angeles and the Los Angeles Unified School District, with funding from the National Science Foundation, that aims "to increase and enhance the computer science learning opportunities" in LAUSD and "to broaden the participation of African-American, Latino/a, and female students in learning computer science." ECS has compiled this resource list that may be of interest to computer science teachers as well as other K-12 instructors looking to integrate computer science education into their classrooms. Readers will find a number of articles of interest (such as Jeanette Wing's 2006 article about computational thinking), in-class worksheets and activities, and links to outside websites realted to K-12 technology education. Note that this page also includes a link to ECS's Student Resource list, which includes a number of resources about youth-centered technology programs and initiatives. These resources will be of interest to teachers and youth workers as well as students."

"HippoCampus is an extensive online resource designed to enrich secondary and post-secondary instruction in mathematics, the natural sciences, the social sciences, and humanities. The resource is a product of the NROC (which stands for Network, Resources, Open, and College and Career), a "community-guided, non-profit project focused on new models of digital content development, distribution, and use." On this website, readers will find resources created by the NROC as well as relevant resources created by other digital content creators, such as Khan Academy and PhET (Physics Education Technology). The site is essentially a useful "one-stop shop" for anyone looking for ready-to-use material. Resources are initially sorted by Subject, then by type of resource (including Presentations, Worked Examples, and Simulations). Within some subject areas, instructors can also check access complete open courses created by the NROC. Some subjects also include a Textbook Correlations tab, which allows teachers to quickly and easily discover the page numbers in a variety of commonly used textbooks that correlate with online resources."

Tom Bober and Brianna Zavadil White write: "You may have seen a portrait of a famous individual used alongside a title slide of a presentation or accompanying a list of facts about that person. In classrooms, portraits are often used as window dressing to history, a face to put with a name, event, or date, but portraits can tell students much more.
The strategy of reading portraiture encourages the visual analysis of a piece of art, similar to closely reading a document. The visual clues found in portraiture may be decoded to learn about the individual featured in the artwork. To get started, select visually complex images that include objects and a compelling setting."
Starting students off with primary source documents can be a challenge, as they struggle with archaic language, print quality, etc. Using images, in this case portraits, and having students examine them in a variety of ways, can make primary sources more appealing! I love the suggestion in the comments to compare two portraits to really get students thinking.

Virtual reality technology has taken big steps, but designing virtual reality experiences is still a complex process. In order to over come this problem a VR startup Delightex developed an easy 3D visualization tool named as "CoSpaces". The aim is to bring VR creation to everyone.
CoSpaces, lets users to drag and drop pre-designed environments, figures and objects from a library. Users can choose a background environment, add more figures, change their colors, sizes and positions.
CoSpaces platform is mainly designed for teachers who want to explore the potential of virtual reality with their students. By using simple tools, teachers can design different objects on their computers, add their own images and then present these designs to students via cardboards.
Does arts integration contribute to student success for disadvantaged student populations? The introduction to this article compares students' academic performance and arts education in countries outperforming the United States on the recent Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) and Progress in International Reading Literacy Study (PIRLS) and makes the argument for using arts integration as a way to teach the Common Core standards and align instruction to the Universal Design for Learning principles. This evaluation of research helps to support the evidence base by examining the quality of studies published between 1995 and 2011 investigating the use of arts integration with disadvantaged student populations, including economically disadvantaged students, English language learners, and students with disabilities. Four hundred fifty-three studies were explored, resulting in the inclusion of forty-four studies in this analysis. Studies were categorized as the following: single art integration, multi-arts integration, effects of arts integration on students with disabilities, or effects of arts integration on school climate. Studies were evaluated for their research design, implementation, and effects, and results depicted positive effects and potentially positive effects. Policy implications and suggestions for future research using the author's proposed theoretical framework are also discussed.

Earlier this week, Oxford's Bodleian Library announced that it had digitized a 550 year old copy of the Gutenberg Bible along with a number of other ancient bibles, some of them quite beautiful. Not to be outdone, the British Library came out with its own announcement on Thursday:
Yahoo said on Thursday that hackers in 2014 stole the account information of at least 500 million users, including names, email addresses, telephone numbers, birth dates, passwords and, in some cases, security questions.
Even if you might not have used a Yahoo account for years, security experts say the incident could have far-reaching consequences for users beyond Yahoo's services.
Here are some answers to frequently asked questions about how you can protect yourself.

IT'S NOT EASY to be in the printer and ink business these days. Revenue is down. Obsolescence looms. Knock-off cartridges are a cheap and easy alternative. HP's apparent solution? DRM. Great.
Just to be clear, this isn't a solution for you. It's a solution for them. Got an OfficeJet, OfficeJet Pro, or Office Jet Pro X printer? As of last week, reasonably priced third-party ink cartridges no longer work. For a company like, say, 123inkt, the Dutch outfit that sells HP-compatible cartridges and first noticed the change, it's DRMaggedon.
HP's at least upfront about it. Brazen, even!
"The purpose of this update is to protect HP's innovations and intellectual property," the company told WIRED. Which is true. If only it protected HP's customers as well.

"Eleanor Lutz, a doctoral student in biology at the University of Washington, is a gifted designer and visualization artist. Her personal blog, Tabletop Whale, presents readers with a virtual treasure trove of "charts, infographics, and information about any and all things science." The most recent graphics featured on Tabletop Whale include a rainbow color clock that blends into a new color every two minutes; three-dimensional trading cards of virufses; and a remarkable map of Mars in which Lutz combines her own hand drawn map - inspired, as she explains, by historical hand-drawn maps - with topographical images of the planet from NASA. Each creation is accompanied by an explanation of her creative process, including her sources of information, the tools she used to create her infographics, and the fonts she selected. Tabletop Whale also includes a tutorial about creating animated infographics for those interested in learning more about the process and craft."

"One thing that made this card stand out among the samples I ordered was the paper. I loved the texture and weight of it. It was very high quality. I also liked the soft femininity of the design. It was girly without being over the top and in your face. A very classy design."
"We received many compliments on this birth announcement. It was simple, yet had all the vital information on the front. We added a family photo on the back of the card. As usual, the proofs were sent to us very quickly, and the final product reached out within days."
"Everything about this card is perfect from what it says to the style and set up. The only thing I wished was that you could turn the photo so that it was going horizontal. Over all great card and very cute. The quality of the card is extremely nice and just looked beautiful. We received so many complements."
"I received several compliments on this birth announcement. It has a sweet, soft design that is perfect for a little girl - very high quality."
"I liked how the text looked as if it were painted. The colors were vibrant and the announcement itself was very clean and simple (not too much text or clutter). I received many compliments from people saying how gorgeous the announcement was and how they hadnt receieved one like it before. The card quality and printing was great as always!"

Amazing anime. One of the first ones I ever watched, and although there is a lot of gore, I think that the storyline is worth the watch. Loved the music in this anime as well. Definitely a must-see in my opinion.
If I hadn't watched the last couple of minutes of it, I would have argued that it was the best anime. I would strongly reccomend that you stop watching when the credits of the last episode come up.
For there nothing good or bad but thinking makes it so.
WARNING: This user is wanted for unauthorized access into Ultratech archives. If you see this user in person, please contact Ultratech immediately.
I bought it, and watched the whole thing in 1 day. It's awesome.
I liked it, definitely! I just wish the ending hadn't changed. But... it was still extremely good!
Slit your wrists and worship Keroppi.
Give us a season 2 already!
they left the anime with so many questions!
It would of been fine if the manga was the same as the anime, personaly i think the anime was the best but they need to finish what they started!
I loved Elfen Lied, great story, and i think you will find anyone that watches it will end up with tears in there eyes on the last ep (ep13)
It actually wasn't gory, Just bloody. If you want gore then watch Apoclypse zero (goriest anime ever created), Violence Jack, Fist of the North Star, Devilman OVA, ect.
But Elfen Lied was decent, and honestly I would hate to see a second season, I think they ended it well and would hate to see a good series ruined by extending it too much to the point it gets repetitve. *cough* pokemon *cough*
First off, its Elfen Lied.
Second, too much gore/nudity for my takes. I watched the edited version, but it still wasn't that good. Not really a deep plot. Just violence and nudity. But i do love a good cat fight .
To the poster above: wtf do you mean its not gory? there was one scene where the bones, and ALL internal organs popped out of the girl when lucy killed her. It was freakin' sick.

Theres only 2 scenes in the entire series that come to mind as far as gore goes, thats hardly enough to consider it "extremely gory" for the most part it was just the generic head pops off bloods sprays everywhere kind of thing.
With only unrealistic amounts of blood spraying everywhere, no liver, lungs, slpeens, intestines ect.

Elfen Lied? Hmm, I think thats german for "Elven Song" although I ain't sure so don't hate me if I got that wrong anyway I haven't seen this anime yet. A friend of mine, who has a reputation of being a sadist, keeps on saying that this is a good anime to watch.
I'm not sure though since he is a sadist, it might not appeal to me.
Hey you guys!! Is this anime good? I want to know so I'll buy the dvd or just download them, I want to be sure before I take any action.
"I lead a life of a stray now, I won't go back to Chronos"
-Train Heartnet
I think most of you don't realise this anmie is more then just the gore!
Elfen Lied is more of a emotional anime, i would have to say that 89% of people who watch it end up crying in it at one stage.
Another thing is the art work! its Awesome!!
Don't forget that the anime is different then the manga, It apears that lucy/nuyu doesn't die, like in the manga she dies by koutas hand, as Lucy made him promise that if she couldn't stop the need to kill he had to kill her, In the Manga she hands kouta a gun and he shoots her in the head, of course he still loved her. its quiet sad!
Anyway Elfen Lied is the best anime i have ever watched! Too bad there isnt a 2nd season yet thou. but i heard that they are working on it cause they changed the story! so fingures crossed!!
did...did you spoiled the ending?
Spoiler code the spoiler now! and yes, the artwork is amazing. I watched it in high quality and i was stunned by the beauty.
Ill just be waiting for the second season. Hopefully, it'll have a nice, non-gore ending.
btw, sammit_01,
wh-what happened to Nana? and the others?
Hmm, you guys didn't answer my question directly but I did read your posts. I gotta say that this anime sounds good, I'll consider buying it or just borrow from my sadist friend. Thanks mates!! I have another anime to look forward to.
I'll see if I will really cry watching this anime. hehe
And if it is really as good as you guys say, I'm sure that there might, no, there WILL be a season 2.
"It might look like I'm doing nothing
but on a cellular level, I'm actually quite busy"
Nana and the others Mmmmm you know im not to sure. i pretty much stopedt reading the manga after i found out it was different and the last sence where lucy dies.
the writer only changed the story cause he became really depressed and relised that it wasn't the ending he wanted for lucy, so thats why the anime is differen't! and a CRAP! load better!
ps, im sorry i don't know the spoiler code im all new to this.....
and its nice to know that there is someone else aggres with me on the 2nd season! [unlimited] !!!! <- MY HERO! MMmmmm to random lol
and there better be a season 2! (Chrono XIII) - Nice faith in the writers. lol
Actually, it's spelled "Elfen Lied" lol. And it's one of the saddest animes I've ever watched X_X And it was really bloody too. Lots of arms and legs falling off, lol.

NEW YORK — Tight inventories limited January clearance activity and same-store sales, but may come back to pay dividends when retailers begin to post fourth-quarter results later this month.
This story first appeared in the February 7, 2003 issue of WWD. Subscribe Today.
Specialty stores were the stand-out segment for the month, while discounters behaved pretty much as expected and department stores occupied the bottom rung of the performance ladder.
"The specialty stores benefited from cold weather and many of the department stores also had a boost from the cold weather in the East," noted retail consultant Walter Loeb.
However, reduced inventories, which have taken some of the risk out of the retail equation, may also have held back some firms. "Many of the stores took heavy markdowns, but didn't have the quantities to continue the momentum of the sales," said Loeb. "As the prospects of war get closer and as people are getting more concerned, they are trying to spend on very basic merchandise. There's more of an effort by the consumer to start saving."
Overall Goldman Sachs' retail composite index rose 1 percent for the month, but was below the projected 1.3 percent uptick. Much of the down side came from the department stores, which as a group fell 3.8 percent, as opposed to the 2.2 percent drop expected by the investment bank. Specialty apparel and off-price stores outperformed with a 3.7 percent rise versus an anticipated 1.7 percent increase. The discounters' 2.5 percent uptick was slightly below the bank's expectations for a 2.7 percent advance.
A tally of 50 apparel retailers compiled by WWD found 28 firms comping downward, while one was flat and 21 posted rising same-store sales. The number of stores with down comps rose from 27 last year while falling from 30 in December.
Sales may have been uninspired last month, but some stores —including Wal-Mart, J.C. Penney, Gap and several teen retailers — saw the month's results as auguring well for fourth-quarter earnings, which in most cases will be released later this month.
The majority of stores, however, saw sales go backward in January. Chains with sliding same-store sales included: Sears, Roebuck & Co. (down 8 percent), May Department Stores Co. (4.4 percent), Ann Taylor Stores Corp. (10.3 percent) and Bebe Stores Inc. (6.9 percent). Christopher & Banks Corp.'s same-store sales slid 9 percent and the firm revised its profit guidance downward.
Wedbush Morgan Securities specialty store analyst Elizabeth Pierce said, "Sales are a little better than people thought for a lot of retailers. I still have concerns given the Easter shift and, while early spring reads were positive for a lot of companies, are there enough data points to really confirm that these emerging trends are being broadly accepted?"
Easter, which brings with it much of spring break sales, falls in April this year, whereas last year it landed in March.
Some of those that did better than expected last month, Pierce added, benefited from having outerwear on the shelves when the mercury fell.
Marcia Aaron, a specialty store analyst at Pacific Growth Equities, said January was "one terrific month" for several stores in the sector, particularly Gap.
She added that strong performances from Hot Topic and Pacific Sunwear in the teen sector were driven by unique merchandise offerings. "They carry smaller brands not sold everywhere." Continuing strong sales of hoodies are a good sign for PacSun, which is going to be carrying the item year-round, she added.
Steve Skinner, a partner at Accenture's retail industry group, said, "The month of January was marginally positive," noting that several retailers, including Wal-Mart, J.C. Penney Co. and Gap Inc. had solid gross margin improvements due to good results in December, which left them with less promotional merchandise to move and, in turn, higher quarterly profits.
Consumers are going to stores, he said, despite an economy that does not seem to be improving. That said, in addition to concerns about a war with Iraq and rising oil prices, Skinner noted that consumers are simply shopping smarter.
A.G. Edwards & Sons Inc. analyst Robert Buchanan noted, "The fourth quarter overall was a disappointment. Our earnings for the industry are only going to be up 5 to 6 percent, much lower than corporate America, which was probably closer to 20 percent."
Retailers are forced to run their businesses tightly and hope for the best, he said, especially since earnings decelerated in the back half last year, making for little momentum.
Gap Inc. turned a corner in the first month of the year, as the nation's largest apparel retailer exceeded its expectations in reporting a positive 16 percent comp, reversing last year's 16 percent decrease in January 2002. All divisions comped upward, led by Old Navy's 27 percent comp. Banana Republic rose 11 percent and Gap 7 percent.
"Positive customer response to holiday product assortments across all brands helped drive momentum in the month and enabled us to clear merchandise at better markdown margins," Sabrina Simmons, treasurer, said.
Based on expectations of a lower effective tax rate, Gap anticipates fourth-quarter earnings in the range of 23 to 29 cents. For the full year, Gap expects earnings to be 51 to 57 cents.
At Limited Brands, results were above expectations, increasing 2 percent in January, driven by stronger-than-expected results at Victoria's Secret, which delivered an 11 percent comp increase. Bath & Body Works comped below expectations, off 6 percent. With Express down 3 percent and Limited flat, LB's apparel brands comped down 2 percent. At Express, women's sales fell below expectations, driven by disappointing results in tops and bottoms. The company projected flat February comps.
Benefitting from holiday clearance activity, strength in cold weather apparel and the redemption of gift certificates, many teen retailers posted strong results, despite Wet Seal's 25.1 percent comp decline and the dismissal of chief executive officer Kathy Bronstein.
American Eagle Outfitters reported a 3.2 percent comp increase in January, slightly ahead of projections, and a 2.2 percent increase on a consolidated basis, including an 11 percent decrease at its Bluenotes/Thriftys stores. AE endorsed First Call earnings estimates for the fourth quarter of 53 cents. Laura Weil, chief financial officer, said that, unlike its hard-hit men's group, its women's division continued to show strength, comping upward in the high-single digits. Top sellers included graphic T-shirts, denim skirts, woven shirts, underwear and outerwear.
Comps increased at Abercrombie & Fitch by 3 percent, reflecting strong sell-throughs of winter clearance merchandise as well as good spring sales. Like AE, women's comps were strongly positive, led by woven shirts, pants, shorts and knit tops, offset by negative comps in its men's division. The company said its Hollister business was strong during January.
Aeropostale saw a comp gain of 4.6 percent and raised fourth-quarter guidance to between 44 and 46 cents from 38 to 40 cents.
Continuing their recent domination of teens demanding differentiated merchandise, Hot Topic and Pacific Sunwear of California reported double-digit increases in January same-store sales of 13.7 percent and 20.4 percent, respectively. PacSun stores' comps increased 18.7 percent and Demo was up 32.8 percent. Both teen retailers said they expect significantly higher earnings per share in the fourth quarter: PacSun, 44 cents compared with 29 cents reported last year, and HT, 49 cents compared with 38 cents reported in 2001.
Like Wet Seal, Bebe apparently missed its customers' fashion mark and reported a 6.9 percent slide in its January comps. Catering to the missy customer in recent months has proven challenging, as the retailers who serve them reported mixed results. Ann Taylor was down 10.3 percent as AT stores fell 9.6 percent and Loft was down 12.2 percent. Talbot's and Christopher & Banks reported decreases of 2.9 percent and 9 percent, respectively, while Chico's FAS increased 8.1 percent.
It was another tough month for the department stores.
May Department Stores Co., parent of Lord & Taylor and Hecht's, among others, recorded a 4.4 percent dip in its same-store sales for January.
Federated Department Stores' comparable-store sales slid 1.2 percent. Fourth-quarter comps for the parent of Macy's and Bloomingdale's, among others, fell 3.9 percent. Annually, the firm's sales dropped 3 percent.
Department store-discounter hybrid Kohl's Corp. was stronger with a 5.5 percent comp gain. The pressure the 457-door retailer puts on the sector is only expected to increase with 80 new stores being added this year, many in new markets.
J.C. Penney Co.'s department store comps decreased 3.8 percent in January, and were below plan due to lower levels of end-of-the-season clearances merchandise after strong sales in the preceding month. Earnings per share for the fourth quarter are expected to reach at least 65 cents a share, above analysts' consensus estimates of 63 cents.
Sears, Roebuck & Co.'s comps dropped 8 percent. The retailer said its first-quarter earnings per share will be in the 50-65 cent range, considerably lower than Wall Street's estimates calling for 87 cents.
Same-store sales at Dillard's Inc. fell 5 percent for the month.
Overall, Saks Inc.'s comps slid 2.1 percent. This was the product of a flat showing in the firm's department store group and a 4.7 percent drop in its luxury Saks Fifth Avenue unit, which reflects lower levels of clearance merchandise than a year ago.
Neiman Marcus Group's comps fell 2.8 percent, which will make for a flat result in the firm's fiscal second quarter.
Same-store sales at Nordstrom inched up 0.8 percent. Fourth-quarter comps, on a calendar basis, are expected to rise by 1.9 percent.
Regional department stores with comp gains included Bon-Ton Stores (8.9 percent), Elder-Beerman Stores (4.7 percent) and Gottschalks Inc. (2 percent). Stage Stores' same-store sales slid 5.2 percent for the month.
Super Bowl Sunday made for less-than-super January sales at Wal-Mart Stores, but the company did manage to comp at the low end of its forecast.
The Bentonville, Ark.-based firm reported January same-store sales rose 2.6 percent, while Sam's Club comps notched up 0.9 percent. Sales tapered off the last week of the month, which caused the shortfall.
"January sales were at the low end of our guidance due to a softer-than-expected fourth week," said a Wal-Mart spokeswoman on a recorded call. "Our forecast included an adjustment for the flip in the Super Bowl. It moved by one week, but apparently [we] understated the true impact."
In better news, January's arctic blast did help sell-throughs of winter-related items, Wal-Mart said.
In conjunction with January comps, Wal-Mart upped its full-year EPS guidance to $1.80 from $1.78, and analysts at Goldman, Sachs & Co. followed suit 2 cents to the same figure.
For February, Wal-Mart said it anticipates a 3 to 5 percent same-store sales gain at the Wal-Mart division, and a more modest 2 to 4 percent increase for its overall U.S. retail operations.
January was far less kind to Target Corp., where the company's overall same-store sales slipped 0.4 percent. The Target division's 0.3 percent comp increase was offset by a 2.6 drop at Marshall Field's and an even greater 6.6 percent decline at Mervyn's.
"Sales for the corporation were below plan in January," said ceo Bob Ulrich in a statement. "Although our sales momentum is relatively weak, our financial performance for 2002 remains on track due to continued strength in our gross margin rate performance and substantial growth in contribution from our credit card operations."
TJX Cos. also had a rough month as same-store sales were down 2 percent. In a statement, ceo Edmond English attributed the below-forecast performance to unusually cold weather throughout the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic regions of the country. Ross Stores likewise comped down 2 percent.
Other mass players who experienced comp-store slides included Value City Department Stores, which fell 6.4 percent; Factory 2-U Stores, which declined 4.7 percent, and ShopKo, which saw comps recede 2.6 percent.

Trillin likes subjects both odd and ordinary—like sudden death and food
UNLIKE MOST WRITERS OF PAINTERLY, impeccably crafted journalism, Calvin Trillin likes dressing up in what he calls an ax murderer's costume—a warty fright mask, a Roto-Rooter outfit with "Calvin" stitched across the breast pocket and a big rubber lizard on his arm. For years he has appeared in this garb on the streets of Greenwich Village in the annual Halloween parade. "We have a couple of sacks of costumes at home," he says, "but every year I go back to the ax murderer. Am I getting in a rut?"
If so, it's the only rut he's ever been in. In a 30-year career centered at The New Yorker magazine, Trillin, 57, has poked all around the U.S. like a free-range chicken, bringing back a huge variety of stories—everything from the exclusion of Jews from Mardi Gras to the weight-loss program of Larry "Fats" Goldberg, the New York pizza baron who dropped 160 lbs. He has also prowled the blue highways in search of such lip-smacking local foods as Louisiana gumbo and Vermont bear—writing about them, said one critic, with "a sensuality so explicit as to border on the prurient." He turns out a loopy humor column syndicated by King Features, has appeared 33 limes on The Tonight Show as a sort of egghead comedian and has mounted two one-man shows in New York City.
But the shrewd and amiable Bud Trillin—almost nobody calls him Calvin—has steered clear of one subject: himself. "I've never heard him deliver a remark about his own personal problems, says fellow New Yorker writer John McPhee, who has known Trillin for 30 years. Some of that reserve has melted in Trillin's new best-seller, Remembering Denny, a memoir about the doomed Denny Hansen, a brilliant, athletic Yale classmate with a Rhodes scholarship and apparent!) limitless potential. He was so incandescent in school that his friends used to discuss, only half jokingly, what Cabinet posts they might hold in a Hansen Administration. Yet somehow this was the same person who in 1991 put a book and a frying pan on the accelerator of a car and gassed himself to death in a garage.
Remembering is a meditation, too, on the expectations shared by Trillin and friends, all those '50s white male Ivy Leaguers so sure they'd inherit the earth. After Denny's memorial service, he says, "all these people were discussing him so intensely. It made me think that the sort of mythic Denny had a hold on them that was worth looking into." But as Trillin looked back on the ruin of his college chum, he found himself increasingly weaving his own early life into the writing. "It became more difficult than any book I've ever done," he says. "I'm not used to writing personal stuff.
Buddy Trillin was born and raised in Kansas City, Mo., a shy boy of East European-Jewish immigrant stock. His father, a grocer, read the popular pulp novel Stover at Yale and was seized by the idea of sending his son there. Virtually coin by coin, he saved the money. Yet in all those years father and son never had a heart-to-heart. "He didn't talk about what he was feeling either," Trillin says. "When I was a kid, I associated feelings with the sort of thing women talk about."
Trillin rose to become chairman of the Yale Dally News but didn't leap directly into journalism, which was "déclassé in those days," he says. "In fact, we considered the word journalism candy-assed." Instead, he did a manly two-year hitch in the Army, stationed mostly on Governor's Island in New York Harbor. But once he became a civilian again, he joined TIME magazine and was soon based in Atlanta covering the civil rights movement.
One of the biggest stories in 1961 was the ordeal of Charlayne Hunter and Hamilton Holmes, who broke the color bar at the University of Georgia. Trillin was very different from other reporters there, says Hunter-Gault, 51, now national correspondent for the MacNeil/Lehrer Newshour. "He wasn't frantic or screaming in my face. He was sort of unobtrusive and rumpled, wearing a trenchcoat—like a precursor to Columbo. But he was easy to talk to and one of the few journalists I trusted."
Later, back in New York, Trillin worked at TIME as a "floater," writing for various departments. Some of them he didn't like—Religion, for example. "I finally got out of that by prefixing everything with 'alleged,' " he said. "I'd write about 'the alleged parting of the Red Sea,' even 'the alleged Crucifixion,' and eventually they let me go." (He later wrote a comic novel. Floater, based on those days.) But in 1963 he found a better home for his quirky and meandering mind at The New Yorker. From 1967 to 1982 he produced, under the rubric U.S. Journal, brisk 3,000-word dramas every three weeks—mostly serious pieces about ordinary Americans, often at each other's throats, in which his wit gleamed like glints of gold thread.
That rhythm of work meant Trillin spent a week on the road reporting each story and two at work back home with his family, who are by all accounts the touchstone of .his life. He and Alice Stewart Trillin, 55, an educational-television producer, married in 1965 and raised two daughters in those years: Abigail, 24, now attending New York University Law School, and Sarah, 21, just out of Yale. In 1976, Alice was diagnosed with lung cancer. "She had never smoked," says writer Mark Singer, another New Yorker friend. "It was terrifying, and it really rocked Bud. He sublimated his fear by seizing the moment, by celebrating life in his work. That's what the food writing became. Later, Alice had part of a lung removed, and while she was recovering they went a lot of places together. They were having a good time because he didn't know if they would have a good time forever."
In 1982, Trillin abandoned his U.S. Journal series—and with it, food writing—for longer, more occasional pieces. Not only had Alice long since recovered, but he was discovering the downside of being identified as a gourmand: Food fanatics were collecting around him like crows. "I was getting calls from people," says Trillin, "saying things like, 'I'm on the corner of 10th and Elm in Toledo. Where should I eat?' " Still, he hasn't lost his taste for the exotic. At the Trillins converted farmhouse on the south shore of Nova Scotia, where they go each summer, "every day's a food adventure," says friend and neighbor Alan Comfort. "Bud hangs out on the docks wailing for the boats. He likes lung fish and tile fish, the kinds nobody else wants."
These days friends also notice that Trillin is keeping less to himself. "Since the Denny book, you get fewer jokes and more of the real thing with Bud." says Singer. Trillin is not. however, pushing further into confessional writing. His next book is a collection of light verse (tentatively titled Deadline Poet), including one hail-and-farewell ode to another old Yalie—George Herbert Walker Bush. ("We wish you well. Just take your ease/ And never order Japanese/ May your repose remain un-blighted/ Unless, of course, you get indicted.") "I'm going back," says the author, "to being the same detached smart aleck I was before."

Not really interested, but could you be more specific with your brick problem?
How bad is it?
There are plenty of guides/tutorials available to help you recover. I'm sure someone in IRC would even help walk you through it. But it all depends...
Do you have access to Bootmii (or Priiloader), do you have the nand.bin and keys.bin? If not, then I believe you truly have a permanent brick on your hands.
And I don't think anyone would be interested in an $80 brick. Maybe 50 or less dollars just for the spare parts, but even then it would be hard to find a buyer.
Good luck.

text: Posted September 7, 2012 OK, PFT just put this up... http://profootballta...e-commissioner/ So essentially this ruling by the panel is kicking it back to Goodell to review and re-issue "punishment" IF it's appropriate for him to do so... The panel is apparenlty confused as to whether Goodell punished the players for violating the CBA by receiving money that isn't accounted for in their contracts or whether he punished them for the conduct of trying to injure other players... because depending on which of those things they are being punished for, Goodell may not have the authority to impose punishment. So basically the panel said "watchu talkin' 'bout Willis?" so basically everyone is jumping the gun here? why am i not shocked? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Remember when bird flu was going to kill us all? How'd that work out for ya? Now it's swine flu, but don't tell that to b-movie makers because death by pig is a bit harder to take seriously than death by bird for some reason. Birdemic does not feature a virus, unless the American Medical Association has officially declared Alfred Hitchcock Rip-off Syndrome a legitimate disorder.
"A platoon of eagles and vultures attack the residents of a small town. Many people died. It's not known what caused the flying menace to attack. Two people managed to fight back, but will they survive Birdemic?"
Filmmaker James Nguyen describes his shock and terror killer bird flick as a romantic thriller. Nguyen would know; he's the self-described "Master of the Romantic Thriller" despite having two other credits to his name, according to IMDB. The Rom-Thrill Master posts on the official Birdemic website, "I am excited to release this unique and unconventional teaser trailer in HD. It's pure cinema. We have begin production, and Birdemic is the most challenging romantic thriller that I have ever directed. Why did the eagles and vultures attack? Will the protagonists live or die?"
Yeah, that synopsis just screams romance. Not since Titanic…
Here's the trailer for his ultra low budget epic. It screams "Where's my Sega Light Gun?"

Agreed! I saw the William Rast for Target collection two days ago. Justin Timberlake should hang his head in shame… boring t-shirts and sweatshirts? I noticed the same thing about the fit and thought these belonged in the children's section.
Overall – poor quality, boring collection, and for the first time in a while it seemed like the entire 'designer' collection was sitting there untouched in my popular Target.
With this collection and the Mulberry collection disaster, it feels like designers coming to Target need to rethink their strategy. Just because I don't choose to buy the designers' collections on a regular basis doesn't mean I'm unfamiliar with the quality and design aesthetic of the brands. I want an affordable, cohesive collection that is inspired by the brand. Not just a cheap knockoff that slaps the designer's name on it.

Summertime at Stourhead
Deposit: £189.00
Our workshops at Stourhead with Charlie Waite are so popular that we've decided to visit in Summer, to allow for different light and muted colours at this superb location in Wiltshire.
Two hundred and seventy years ago the botanical traveller Henry Hoare began to realise his dream of creating what is now thought to be one of the finest classical gardens in the world, rivalled only by some of the Lombardian gardens in northern Italy.
Yet no Italian garden can come near to the perfectly proportioned and magnificent lake that provides the centerpiece to this truly inspirational landscape. Painters, garden designers and of course photographers have been known to gasp at first sight of this breathtaking garden.
There are almost too many examples of tree and exotic plant species to count, making Stourhead one of the National Trusts most prized jewels in its portfolio of classical gardens. At every turn, the photographer is presented with a shimmering reflection of Stourhead's famous Pantheon along with the Palladian Bridge which offers the perfect foreground to make an image that may be reminiscent of the great painters, Claude Lorrain and Gaspar Dughet whose paintings influenced the design of these ravishing gardens.
The gardens have been used as backdrops in many major movies including the 2005 film, Pride & Prejudice and after just a few minutes of entering Stourhead gardens, it's easy to see why.
The landscape photographer will relish Stourhead's breathtaking views with plants and trees in Spring colours for this Light & Land Spring workshop. Stourhead is a stone's throw from Mere in Southern Wiltshire and just a couple of hours from London this world-class landscape garden is an absolute gem and overflowing with photographic opportunities.
This one-day workshop will be lead by Charlie Waite, who will guide you through the many considerations of composition and of course the techniques of exposure and filtration that provides the photographer with the confidence and ability to 'get it right' in camera. Due to this leaders popularity, we expect high demand for places so to avoid disappointment, we urge you not to delay with your booking.

text: HISTORY OF WESTERN EDUCATION works out the conception in mathematical terms. It is sufficient to note that he claims to be able to show how by this mechanism the forms of space and time, the idea of the Ego and all other ideas " from the most humble up to the universal and necessary ideas " are built up into those masses or complexes of ideas more or less integrated, which determine the individual person's behaviour in all particular circumstances. These psychological considerations provide the educator with an understanding of the process and means of education, but behind all psychological questions of means is the more funda- mental ethical question of aim. What is the purpose to be served by education ? " The one task, and the whole task, of education," answers Herbart in the opening sentence of The JEsthetic Pre- sentation of the World, " may be summed up in the concept of morality." In a word, the aim of education that includes all minor aims is the production of good men. It is not enough that the pupil should acquire knowledge or skill. " The worth of a man," he reminds us, " is measured by his will and not by his intellect."* If the child is not made good by his education, the educator has not done his work properly. Will springs out of the circle of thought, and so does feeling. The lack of the good will* the absence of broad sympathies, indicates a failure to impart the ideas from which would have issued right action. But in justice to Herbart it is important to note the wide meaning he attaches to " goodness " and " morality," as defining the educational end, It is not merely a detached attitude of soul, but the all-round development of mind and character that he has in view. Kant made the good will the central fact of moral experience : there is nothing in the world absolutely good, he said, but the good will. Herbart cannot sum up morality quite so simply. For him moral conduct has five distinct aspects, lacking any one of which it is incomplete. These are comprehended in what he calls the Five Moral Ideas. The first is the Idea of Inner Freedom�the com- bination of insight and volition, the knowledge of what ought to be done in union with the trained will to give it effect; the second, the Idea of Perfection or Completeness, with which the teacher is specially concerned; the third, the Idea of the Good Will, appearing in the attitude one assumes towards others ; the fourth, the Idea of Rights, in the matter of property and other social * Lange, Herbarfs Outlines of Educational Doctrine, p. 40,

You heard that right, folks, statists don't get that they're the problem when it comes to sexism and racism. Oh they like to say they stand up against those things; but even when they appear to do so, it usually falls so short as to appear farcical.
Case in point, Salon harridan Joan Walsh tries to take Newsweek to task for the sexist cover with the picture of Sarah Palin on it:
Hell freezes over: I agree with Sarah Palin. Newsweek's out of context short-shorts cover was sexist
I mentioned it in passing yesterday, but Newsweek's Jon Meacham gets America's Top Clueless Male award for taking a photo Sarah Palin shot for Runner's World, and using it on a serious news story about her role in the GOP. Palin denounced the photo selection as "sexist and degrading" on her Facebook page, and she's right.
She goes on:
...Meacham told Politico: "We chose the most interesting image available to us to illustrate the theme of the cover, which is what we always try to do. We apply the same test to photographs of any public figure, male or female: does the image convey what we are saying? That is a gender-neutral standard."
Really, Jon Meacham? Did you really want to say that? OK, then, let's deconstruct the cover entirely. The photo of the lovely, bare-legged Palin is paired with the headline: "How do you solve a problem like Sarah?" For those too young to recognize the reference, it's from a "Sound of Music" song, "How Do You Solve a Problem Like Maria?" about a young novice who is too cute and flighty to be a nun ("she's a flibbertyjibbit, a will o' the wisp, a clown!"). That's a great way to describe our first GOP vice-presidential nominee. Not sexist at all...Oh yes, Jon Meacham, your answer is proof-positive that there was no sexism to your imagery. Fail.
It sounds like Walsh is pretty ticked, right? Fuhgeddaboudit. Reading the whole piece, Walsh isn't really willing to point out a few things. Oh sure, Walsh is upset up to a point; just not all that upset. Because the left is always ready, willing, and able to defend and be what they say they hate, sexists and racists, if it advances their agenda. Look how the statists defended, and still defend, one of the ultimate misogynists of recent memory, Bill Clinton. Destroying Sarah Palin is part of that, even if done in the dishonorable method the left has been using since Palin hit the national scene. Even as Walsh chastises Meacham for his ridiculous explanation, she never once characterizes Meacham or others (especially noted OB-GYN specialist Andrew Sullivan) for being the misogynists they are. Neither Walsh, nor others she cites in the piece, call for Meacham's removal as editor of Newsweek, or even a boycott of the struggling magazine, because Meacham is one of their own, one of them.
It does look like Walsh was not a happy camper, and I have no doubt she was angry; but, she'll get over it. The left will accept Meacham back into the fold, without an apology or an admission that what he or Newsweek did was wrong; he or some other editor of one of the leftist rags will do something similar, and this whole dance will be played out again. Remember, it is many, if not most, of these same statists who still believe Dan Rather got the short end of the deal for trying to influence the 2004 Presidential election, believing Rather instead of the evidence.
Ticked? Yes. Outraged? No. It's just the typical faux outrage of the left.

Current Exhibition: Figure/Heads- David Bae & Erin Cunningham
August 23rd - Sept 24th
ICOSA collective presents the first exhibition of a series of ten two-person member shows, "Figure/heads" featuring the work of David Bae and Erin Cunningham. In their respective media, the two artists present their own distinct interpretations of the physical/psychological aspects of the figure.
David Bae's portraits merge a range of subjects and caricatures. They lack the continuity of traditional portraiture while mining its conventions. Delving into psychological headspace, his paintings both abstract and mirror the ways seeing, thinking, and feeling do not always align.
Erin Cunningham frames the body's mundane folded spaces, and casts them in an unfamiliar light. In her metal, wax, and plaster castings, cross-sections of the body are preserved and inserted into everyday décor, coupling objects of comfort with the strange and eerie.
