CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Among the people injured during Wednesday night's riots in uptown Charlotte were two colleagues of NBC Charlotte.
Video posted on YouTube shows reporter Mary Sturgill, wearing a blue dress, and photographer Eric Alkire just before they were attacked.
The crews was in Charlotte from Columbia, S.C. to help NBC Charlotte cover the chaos.
"Right now I feel like a Mack truck hit me," Sturgill said.
Sturgill says the protests started peacefully, but the mood changed after police tried to move the mob.
"That's when we started seeing protestors who were throwing things," said Alkire. "We did almost get hit by a foot and a half long stick."
The team was walking back to their truck when Alkire stopped to record video of a small fire on the street.
"So when I start shooting the fire in the trash can, a protestor comes up on my right and pulls the cable," Alkire explained.
The cable connected his camera to his live transmitter. In an instant, the attackers pounced.
"The person in the red hoodie flew through the air and punched Eric in the side of the head and Eric went down," Sturgill said.
"That's the last thing I remember for a while," Alkire said.
Sturgill tried to protect her unconscious partner, but got kicked in the back. The two were rescued by other protesters and nearby police officers.
Looking back, Sturgill says, there were two distinct groups of people in Charlotte's streets. There were the "protestors" who were there to make a point. And then there were people who seemed bent on violence and destruction.
"Those people, whether you call them agitators, aggressors or rioters, those people I felt like were just there to cause chaos and to cause problems. And they took the voice away from the protestors in doing that," Sturgill said.
Sturgill and Alkire were taken to a nearby hospital where they were treated and released. They are both back in Columbia recovering.

Norm 69 Lamp
Written by Katie on August 13, 2014. Permalink
Let's do a little comparison to put the price of this Norm 69 Lamp into perspective. The 69-part lamp was inspired by the intricate exterior of the pinecone, and was originally designed in 1969 by Simon Karkov. It takes a little while to assemble, but you won't need tools or any adhesives. You'll also need to find a socket and cord, but that shouldn't be any problem in this day and age. The price? $130.
Purchase Information:Price: $130.00

Located in Canada's heartland, Saskatchewan is recognized for its agricultural biotechnology and livestock genomics. With about half of Saskatchewan's land devoted to agriculture, it's not surprising that the province's biotechnology companies have agricultural roots. Phenomenome Discoveries, which specializes in metabolomics profiling, is an exception.Neuroscientist Dayan Goodenowe, Ph.D., developed mass spectrometry methods to perform comprehensive analyses of metabolites in biological samples. The patented process and supporting bioinformatics form the metabolomics biomarker platform at Phenomenome Discoveries, which Dr. Goodenowe and John Hyshka cofounded in Saskatoon in 2000. The company's first product is a serum-based biomarker test for colon cancer. Canadian physicians are testing the screening method to see how it compares to colonoscopy results. Patient samples are sent to Phenomenome, where the high-throughput test is performed. "We want to position it as a precolonoscopy screening tool to select patients who are at high risk for colon cancer," says Alix Hayden, director of business development.The goal is to better allocate expensive colonoscopy resources and select patients who will benefit most from the invasive procedure. Other biomarker screening tests for ovarian cancer, Alzheimer's disease, autism, and multiple sclerosis are in the company's pipeline. Phenomenome offers contract biomarker screening services for pharmaceutical, nutrition, and agricultural clients. "Our technology detects small molecules in an unbiased manner in any complex biological mixture," according to Hayden. Additionally, the biomarker platform uncovers the biochemical processes underlying a disease, which are used to design targeted small molecule drugs. "It's biomarker-driven therapeutic development," Hayden explains. The first candidates will move into clinical trials within 18 months. In the second quarter of 2008, Phenomenome plans to open Phreedom Sante, a personal metabolic health monitoring clinic that will perform biomarker testing for the public. The biomarkers such as oxidative stress and lipid profiles are linked to chronic conditions and can be detected up to 10 years before clinical symptoms occur. Clients will be given advice about appropriate medications or life-style changes like diet and exercise to improve their health. The same biomarkers can then be used to monitor whether drugs or lifestyle changes successfully reduce disease risks. "It's a novel direct-to-consumer approach to motivate people to take preventive action," Hayden remarks. Saponin was formed to commercialize natural chemicals stored in seeds of Saponaria vaccaria. This wild prairie carnation makes large amounts of saponins and other bioproducts. Saponins are gentle, nonionic detergents found in shampoos and products for laundering delicate fabrics. Their natural foaming action makes them key ingredients in beer, soft drinks, and fire extinguishers. In the last five years, medical applications of saponins have been discovered. Saponins structurally resemble steroids and interact with cell membranes. "We are studying some of the potential medical uses of saponins, specifically immunostimulatory properties for use in vaccines," says Paul Arnison, Ph.D., CSO and cofounder. The strong immune response to saponins provides an opportunity to prepare low-cost adjuvants on a large scale for animal healthcare applications. A longer-term goal is to develop human vaccine adjuvants.

Nonprofit housing group's ad draws fire
MONTPELIER — A Vermont nonprofit housing group is being criticized for a video promoting its weatherization service that some say plays on stereotypes of people from India.
The ad on the website of Neighborworks, a housing group serving Rutland and Bennington counties, has Vermont-based comic actor Rusty DeWees imitating someone with an Indian accent answering the phone.
It makes the point that people calling the Neighborworks Heat Squad weatherization service will be answered by a woman named Lori from West Rutland.
Some lawmakers are calling the ad demeaning to South Asians. Sen. Richard Sears, a Bennington county Democrat, says an agency getting government support should not be running ads using stereotypes.
Neighborworks executive director Ludy Biddle was not immediately available for comment.MORE IN This Just InMORRISVILLE Overtime magic from Chloe Schiff and Maralina Moore gave the Solons a huge...

Broncos make super hype men for Rick Ross at Gothic Theatre
If you've been living under a rock, you should know that the Denver Broncos just won the Super Bowl and the city hasn't stopped partying since.
If you've been living under a rock, you should know that the Denver Broncos just won the Super Bowl and the city hasn't stopped partying since.
This football season has been very good to Denver's hip-hop heads. First, the Broncos' AFC Championship win saw an after-party concert care of Atlanta's T.I.
One thing about Rick Ross that can't be denied is his incredible ear for production. Even his mixtape contains throw-away beats from J.U.S.T.I.C.E. L.E.A.G.U.E.
BY JEFF MARTIN ASSOCIATED PRESS ATLANTA (AP) -- Rapper Rick Ross is facing kidnapping and assault charges after a U.S. Marshals Service fugitive task force and deputies arrested him at his mansion south of Atlanta early Wednesday, authorities said.
Clouds of smoke began wafting through the air in the early afternoon on April 19 as attendees milled around Civic Center Park in anticipation for entertainment at Denver's 4/20 celebration.
Rick Ross will headline the big 4/20 Rally in Civic Center this year, organizers have announced. In 2014, the event brought tens of thousands of people to Civic Center for a lineup of Wyclef Jean, B.o.B and Denver's FL of the Foodchain.
http://youtu.be/HwctEiWLe84 Chris Brown, when not in the news involving his off/on again girlfriend Rihanna, is busting out all the stops with the upcoming support of his forthcoming album, "X," scheduled for release Sept.
Saturday of SXSW 2014 brought sets from Destruction Unit, Young & Sick, WET, Jojo, Nothing, SZA, Schoolboy Q, Travis Scott, Casey Veggies, Julian Casablancas + The Voidz, Erykah Badu, Bun B, Rick Ross and more.
There are few people who can steal a show from Rick Ross, and one of those people is Kanye West. In support of his new album, "Mastermind," Ross performed "Sanctified" on "Arsenio Hall" on Thursday, joined by surprise guests, West and Big Sean.
Rick Ross has long been plagued about the authenticity in his rhymes after a photo surfaced of the rapper clad in his corrections officer uniform.

Skiing is strong
ASPEN, Colo. - With above-average levels of snow in some parts of the country this winter, a few ski resorts are taking advantage by staying open longer.
Aspen Skiing Co. announced Aspen Highlands in Colorado will stay open until April 27, making that area the fourth this year to announce an extended ski season.
Elsewhere in Colorado, Purgatory at Durango Mountain moved its closing date from March 30 to April 6; Monarch extended its season from April 6 to April 13 and Wolf Creek will stay open until April 27.
The state's snowpack was at 125 percent of its 30-year historical average.
Museum opens
TOPEKA, Kan. - Kansas is known around the world for the famous fictional tornado in "The Wizard of Oz."
Now, after a year of ice storms, tornadoes and flooding in Kansas, the state history museum has opened an exhibit on extreme weather.
"Forces of Nature" will be at the Kansas Museum of History in west Topeka through Jan. 4.

Locating the Voice in Film - call for papers
Date Submitted:
Announcement ID:
Locating the Voice in Film: Critical Approaches and Global Practices Editors: Tom Whittaker (University of Liverpool) and Sarah Wright (Royal Holloway)
Some thirty years after Mary Ann Doane's seminal essay, 'The Voice in Cinema' (1980), the voice continues to exert a fascination in Film Studies. This has been particularly borne out in more recent years, with studies such as Into the Vortex: Female Voice and Paradox in Film (Britta Sjogren, 2006) andOverhearing Film Dialogue (Sarah Kozloff, 2000). As these authors show, the texture of the voice is an important, and often overlooked, component of film form. The voice provides a crucial vehicle for understanding the complex ways in which cinematic identification, performance and sound design are constructed in film.
Much critical writing on the voice, however, has tended to pursue the model of Hollywood cinema as its primary focus. In contrast, the location of the voice in non-Anglophone film industries, which has often employed different approaches to sound design, has received far less critical attention. For instance, the dubbing of foreign actors continues to be standard practice in a great number of countries both within and beyond Europe. Moreover, unlike Hollywood, the national cinemas of Italy, Spain and India traditionally relied on post-synchronised sound, which often complicated the commonly held relationship between sound and image.
Locating the Voice In Film intends to be the first book-length study to explore the voice beyond the context of Hollywood cinema. Comprising essays by scholars within Film Studies and Cultural Studies, the anthology specifically addresses issues surrounding the voice that are particular to non-Anglophone cinema. Each chapter will turn on aspects such as dubbing and dubbing actors, post-synchronised sound and the specificity of vocal performance across a number of diverse national contexts and cinematic practices. Several of the analyses will also critically engage with existing cultural criticism and philosophical writing on the voice, in turn drawing on the writing of Roland Barthes, Stephen Connor and Mladen Dolar. In doing so, Locating the Voice seeks to make a significant contribution not only to our understanding of practices of sound, dubbing and performance in film, but casts light on the ambiguous location of the voice within culture in general.
Abstracts of 300 words should be sent to firstname.lastname@example.com and email@example.com by 1 December 2013, with biographical information of the author. Articles of 6,000 words should be sent to the editors by January 15th 2015. Topics may include (but are not restricted to) the following within the context of non-Anglophone film:
- Film dubbing
- Practices, effects or reception of post-sychronised sound
- Textures and grains of the voice
- The relationship between body and voice in film
- Vocal performance
- Stardom and the voice

Maybe this is why no one refers to Western New York as the "suburbs of good neighbors."
The vitriol sparked by the mere thought of Buffalo students trekking to the suburbs for a better education makes past debates about "regionalism" or extending Metro Rail beyond the city seem models of civility by comparison.
The back-of-the-napkin proposal to meet a state mandate by having students in failing city schools transfer to suburban classrooms – sketchy as it is – was enough to rip the cover off the deep-seated biases otherwise politely concealed in "post-racial" America.
As we approach the 50th anniversary of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.'s famous speech, and as we welcome the nation's first black president back to town today, it's clear Buffalo Niagara is nowhere near a time when color doesn't matter or individuals are judged "by the content of their character."
Instead, the online responses to Buffalo News articles about the transfer plan – misspellings and all – take us back 50 years:
"I'll be damed if buffalo kids are going to come to our schools. I will go door to door getting signatures to keep buffalo kids out of or district. Or I'll get parents to keep their kids out of school. We don't need this rift raft in our schools."
So much for judging kids by the content of their character. These, after all, would be students whose parents are engaged enough to apply for the transfers. These would be the "good blacks" racists who don't recognize their racism normally claim to embrace.
"I agree 500% and will also go door to door. don't buffalo students already get a free college ed. my family works hard to pay very high school and property taxes in West Seneca. NO WAY!!! This is an ATTACK on suburban schools."
No, airplanes flying into towers constitute an "attack." Parents wanting a better education for their kids constitutes the American way.
"Trayvon is coming to a school near you."
That one speaks for itself.
Collectively, such comments don't say much that's encouraging about modern-day Western New York. No doubt, the minority of black teens who have never learned to behave in public contribute to the bigotry behind such caustic drivel. But at least they have ignorance as an excuse.
What's the excuse of those who benefited from a good education and thus should know better, but stereotype anyway? To the degree any of them have the power to hire, make loans or issue mortgages, their biases contribute to the very socioeconomic disparities they blame blacks for creating.
More encouraging are commenters like the one who pointed out that "the wall of segregation is made of socioeconomic factors" and noted presciently that changing demographics mean "the problems in Buffalo are in fact everyone's problems after all." It's a 1990s message that, unlike in other places, never gained traction here.
So here we are, in 2013 with suburban superintendents politely dismissing the prospect of accepting city students while a disturbing number of their constituents dispense with any niceties to express the same sentiments. In the process, we learn a lot about ourselves as a region.
City of Good Neighbors?
Only if, like the sad but certain Robert Frost character, we think "good fences make good neighbors."

We're in the midst of a great four-year national debate on the size and reach of government, the future of the welfare state, indeed, the nature of the social contract between citizen and state. The distinctive visions of the two parties - social-democratic vs. limited-government - have underlain every debate since Barack Obama's inauguration: the stimulus, health-care reform, financial regulation. The debt ceiling is but the latest.
The sausage-making may be unsightly, but the problem is not that Washington is "broken" - that ridiculous, ubiquitous cliché. The problem is that the definitive popular verdict has not yet been rendered.

A federal grand jury on Tuesday indicted an Amarillo man on a charge of bank robbery.
Joshua Steven Urban, 24, of Amarillo was arrested March 2 for allegedly robbing FirstBank Southwest at 5701 S.W. 34th Ave. that same day.
According to a criminal complaint filed last month, a man wearing a black ski mask and black gloves walked into the bank, pulled out a revolver and told a teller, "This is a robbery. I need $40,000. This is not a joke," according to the complaint.
The only customer in the lobby followed the robber outside and saw him getting into a green Toyota 4Runner and drive off.
Police found the vehicle parked at the Canyons at 45 West Apartments in the 4100 block of Southwest 45th Avenue.
Police arrested Urban at his apartment.
"The toilet appeared that it had been flushed recently ... leading officers to believe that Urban had possibly flushed the money down the toilet," the complaint read.
Authorities found no money in the trap of the toilet. Apartment maintenance workers used a camera to view the sewer lines and found two $1,000 bank straps.
While searching Urban's apartment, police found a .22-caliber revolver, clothing that bank workers described the robber as wearing and a black bag similar to one the robber handed the teller.

Good recipe, I thought it was a little bland when I tasted the sauce so I added a little cumin and chilli powder, made all the difference.
Very delicious and easy. I used heavy cream instead, added a little butter and a lot of garlic. Make sure you use generous salt and pepper or it can be a little bland. I also add another poblano or 2. I have made this several times since the first time I found and made this recipe. PS - poblanos are very easy to grow as well.
Fast and easy. I used heavy cream because that's what I had in the house. Delicious!
Simple and delicious. Eating this recipe was like floating through clouds of deliciousness. Or something. We added mushrooms and the recipe was absolutely amazing. Will make again, for sure.
One more thing- do NOT rinse the chiles- it completely eliminates the spiciness, and poblanos are not actually that spicy in the US. I don't know what the difference is, especially since they often come from Mexico anyway, but I have yet to get a truly spicy poblano (or serrano, or jalapeno!), so there is really no need to rinse them- it eliminates the flavor that makes them wonderful! Just make sure to devein and deseed them really well, that gets rid of most of the spiciness also.
Wow! That was wonderful. Very simple too. I served it over rice instead of with tortillas. I did make a few changes (all fairly common to Mexican variations of rajas). I sauteed some sliced mushrooms first, then added them to the rajas at the end, along with some corn. This added a wonderful depth to the rajas. I also ended up increasing the cream because of the increase in ingredients. I used half sour cream, half whipping cream. My husband absolutely loved it! A definite keeper in my kitchen.
easy and flavorful. used a yellow pepper, because it was what i had, and added some mushrooms and a bit of broth. next time i would try it with poblano chiles.
Very easy and quick recipe that is loaded with flavor. Serve with warmed corn tortillas and enjoy.
This is excellent! I made it a pasta dish by cutting the chicken into bite sized pieces. Sauted 2 cups sliced mushrooms (any kind) and then tossed everything in with cooked penne pasta. I used about 1/3 cup whipping cream instead of the sour Cream. You may need to thin the sauce with some chicken broth. It's a complete meal...veggies, protein and carbs!
I've made this dish three times now and it's a favorite in our house. I do a few things different - I pound the chicken breasts so they cook faster, and once they're done (I just undercook them), I put them in the warm oven and cook the onions and peppers in the same skillet to take advantage of all the good leftover chicken fond. I add a half-cup of the creme fraiche and cook for a few minutes, then slice the chicken and add it until it's all hot. I also add a good teaspoon of ground white pepper, and a fair amount of sea salt. Served over rice, it's a great meal!

Spicy Stir-Fried Eggplant (Aubergine)
Total Time
Prep 10 mins
Cook 20 mins
Eggplant is so full of nutrients and is a very filling vegetable as well - great for people who are just getting used to a vegetarian diet and who are missing the 'chunky' texture of meat in a dish. This makes either a very nice vegetarian/vegan main dish or a nice side to compliment an East Indian or Middle Eastern main dish.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 4 Japanese eggplants, cut into 1-inch cubes (or two regular)
- 5 tablespoons vegetable oil or 5 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 lemon, juice of, diluted in
- 1 cup water
Spice Mixture
- 2 teaspoons coriander
- 1 teaspoon curry powder
- 1⁄4 teaspoon turmeric
- 1⁄4 teaspoon chili powder
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- Heat oil in wok or large skillet on medium high.
- Add eggplant.
- After 1 minute, reduce heat to medium.
- Sprinkle with spice mixture.
- Stir.
- Cook, stirring frequently, for 15-20 minutes.
- Every minute, add about 1 T lemon-water.

This is a very nice side dish to accompany any Indian meal or you can have it on its own like I did for my lunch. One thing I would say is you must like eggplant to like this I love eggplant and you do get a lot of the lemon tang. I make a dish very similar to this recipe393169 but is made with mushrooms and at the end of cooking you sprinkle with some besan flour (chickpea) I think this would be great with some flour to thicken the wee bit sauce that you get in the bottom of your wok. I did like this and will be using this recipe when I make our Saturday night curry as a side dish it will fit in nicely. Thank you for posting. Made for a rainbow of colour the diabetic forum March 2011.
This gives the eggplant such a great flavor. All the warm spices are definately a compliment to the taste of the eggplant. I'll be using this recipe again!
This is a great way to enjoy those baby eggplants. The flavor is excellent and it's super esy to make, too. I simmered for th 15 minutes and covered the skillet after each addition of lemon water so it wouldn't dry out. Wonderful! Thanx for sharing.

If you mean customization beyond where San Andreas went, I would recommend Saints Row, it may be more up your ally.

I wouldn't mind a San Andreas level of customization, but nothing too over the top. Clothing, tattoos, haircut, that's all I need. I'd like for the car customization to be a little more in depth, and there must be a color slider instead of preset colors.

i like how time passes in the pray and spray, it's realistic. speaking of which, id like a lot more realism and grit than we saw in gt4, though i realize im probly in the minority there. i dislike color sliders.
one thing the game severely needs is to make the in game economy of much greater importance. expensive properties, clothes, weapons, whatever. there has to be a reason to make and spend money.

This is rather small, really small actually, but it's something I've been curious about. Also, I never played the episodes so ignore this if I'm just being ignorant about it.
But remember in III era games, how when you entered a new district of town, the district would pop up in the game's corresponding font? III was italic yellow, Vice City was blue/cursive (or something like that), and SA was Old English? IV was just plain white, and that's understandable because it sort of fit the vibe I guess, but do you think that they will continue that, or change it to fit LS/the game's vibe overall? Like I said, never played the episode, maybe it changed in those ones.
Also, do you want a rag/riches, riches/riches, riches/rags, rags/rags, or just a neutral story?

Few things im hoping for:
1. Off road racing. The screens showing the dirt bikes and dirt trails through the mountains is really making me want to tear off-road with some friends on atv's/dirt bikes. Also on the same note id love to see more off-roading vehicles, such as suv's and pickups with beefed up suspension and off-roading tires.
2. Semis with the attachable trailers. Missed that ever since SA.
3. Different firearms. Tired of the usual ak/m4, etc. Throw in something exotic. AUG, FN-FAL, G3A3, etc.
4. would be nice to see the strange vehicles return, like hovercraft, racing kart, etc.
5. Would absolutely love the return of drivable trains. With air horns this time.
6. Better music. I'm a death metal person and would love to hear more metal.
On a different subject, the online free-roam is going to be a nightmare for a while after release. I can see one of the biggest issues: aircraft. Everyone and their mother is going to want to fly the planes, and especially the F/A-18 it showed from the trailer. Theres always going to be the one guy in every game shooting down everyone elses planes with it or just being an ass and strafing everyone on the ground. Hopefully to counter it we see anti-air missiles added into the game so we can shoot them down, or at least deter them from strafing all the time. Other then that it should be rather fun.
Why serve in Heaven when you can rule in Hell.

Yes it changed in episodes. TLaD had a different font with everything having black specks in it. Just a gritty feel. Or at least I think, been a while since I played it. TBoGT had same font but lots of magenta and pastel blue and yellow.

Audubon, John James:John James Audubon is best known for his ornithological magnum opus, The Birds of America; from Original Drawings. Published between 1827-38 in an edition of around 200, The Birds of America represents the culmination of Audubon's life work as a naturalist-artist, depicting in 435 plates every bird species from North America. In order to feature the birds as life-size, Audubon insisted that the engravings were printed on "double-elephant" broadsheets measuring 39 ½ x 26 ½", about twice the size of the drawing paper on which he made the original watercolor studies. Audubon's path to becoming the world's greatest bird painter was circuitous, if not serendipitous. Born in 1785 in Les Cayes, Santo Domingo, the illegitimate son of a French sea captain and his Creole mistress, Jean-Jacques Fougère Audubon grew up in Nantes, France. It was here that he developed his passion for birds, collecting countryside specimens that he would stuff, display, and illustrate. To prevent his son's conscription in the Napoleonic Wars, Jean Audubon sent him in 1803 to a farm he had recently purchased outside of Philadelphia, where young Audubon (having anglicized his name to John James) preferred collecting birds to running the family's mining business. Five years later, Audubon and his Pennsylvania bride, Lucy Bakewell, settled in Kentucky, and he cobbled together jobs as a merchant, miller, and portrait painter. All some time, he feverishly studied and rendered birds, creating a system of suspending specimens from wires as a means of simulating lifelike poses. His discovery of new bird species on trips during the early 1820s through Mississippi, Louisiana, Alabama, and Florida convinced him to compile an illustrated book of native birds, despite his flimsy fortune and Lucy's hardship as the family breadwinner. Unable to find a publisher in Philadelphia for his proposed book of bird drawings, Audubon traveled to England and Scotland in 1826 in search of support. Abroad, he met luminaries in the scientific community, including the botanist William Roscoe, who helped him exhibit his drawings in Manchester; the ornithologist William Swainson; the naturalist William MacGillivray, who later edited the text for The Birds of America; and William Home Lizars, an engraver in Edinburgh who, impressed by Audubon's work, agreed to print the massive folio. However, when Lizars was only able to complete the first ten plates, Audubon approached the established London engraver Robert Havell, who together with his son Robert, Jr., took up the project. Ultimately, The Birds of America was issued serially in five-plate sets, for a total of 435 plates, over the course of a decade.

Brisbane Roar beat Sydney FC 3-1 in A-League final round clash
- From: The Courier-Mail
- March 29, 2013
- Brisbane Roar 3 Sydney FC 1
SYDNEY FCs hopes of reaching the A-League finals series are on life support after gifting Brisbane Roar a 3-1 win at Suncorp Stadium tonight.
While the confident Roar cemented fifth spot and berth in a sudden-death semi-final away from home against either Adelaide United or Melbourne Victory, Sydney face a nervous wait to discover whether they will feature in post-season action.
Currently clinging on to sixth spot, the Sky Blues' season will be over if Newcastle beat Western Sydney Wanderers at Hunter Stadium tomorrow night.
And even if the Wanderers do their arch-rivals a favour by avoiding defeat against the Jets, Sydney must then rely on Adelaide beating Perth Glory at nib Stadium on Saturday to scrape into the finals.
"You don't like to have to rely on other results, especially at this stage, but we don't have any choice so we'll wait and see what pans out on the weekend," Sydney coach Frank Farina said.
"We gift-wrapped the first two goals. They were two horrendous mistakes and we got punished."
On the evidence of this performance, Sydney will only be making up the numbers in the playoffs.
In a game which Farina dubbed a "grand final", Sydney failed to show the necessary desperation against a Roar side, who made the most of an error-riddled effort from the visitors.
Disaster struck Sydney in the 30th minute when a rare mistake from talisman Alessandro Del Piero led to Brisbane taking the lead.
In possession in his own half, the Italian legend played a pass towards his own goal that was pounced on by Roar star Thomas Broich.
The German attacker quickly cut the ball inside to an unmarked Besart Berisha, who made no mistake from close range to score his 14th goal of the season and his fifth in six matches against the Sydneysiders.
Sydney resorted to long-distance efforts for the majority of the first half, but were perhaps unlucky only a few minutes after going behind when Terry Antonis was ruled offside after running on to a sublime Del Piero pass.
However, any hopes of Sydney revival were dashed after the half-time break, with Brisbane again capitalising on an error from the Sky Blues to double their lead in the 51st minute.
Defender Seb Ryall played a sloppy pass out from his penalty area, with Berisha making the crucial intercept before feeding teammate Steve Lustica, who made it 2-0 to the delight of the majority of the 19,010-strong crowd.
The night got worse for Ryall with 25 minutes remaining when he somehow failed to hit the target with a header from inside the six-yard box after being found unmarked by Del Piero.
The Roar sealed their win in the 79th minute when Ivan Franjic unleashed with a long-distance strike that was too good for Sydney goalkeeper Ivan Necevski.
Del Piero pulled one back from the penalty spot in the 84th minute after Roar defender James Donachie brought down Joel Griffiths.
But it was too little, too late for Sydney, who now must rely on other results to have a chance to play finals football.
Farina made two changes to the side that started in the Sky Blues' last start 1-1 draw with Western Sydney Wanderers.
Both were forced, with the injured Lucas Neill (hamstring) and the suspended Brett Emerton replaced by Adam Griffiths and returning skipper Terry McFlynn.
The Roar made just the one change, with key defender Jade North back from international duty to replace Corey Brown from the team that started in the 2-0 win over Melbourne Heart last Sunday.

Give credit where credit is due of Brisbane Posted at 12:31 AM March 29, 2013
As usual pathetic reporting Marco, a known Roar hater, you made it sound like all the Roar had to do was turn up to the match to win. Just suck it up and acknowledge that the Roar are getting better every week and they worked real hard for their deserved victory tonight. Just give a little credit where its due, eg. Franjics goal had the perfect curve on it to swing past the Sydney keeper, a stunning goal in any football league.

PTC Therapeutics just selected a development candidate in its spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) collaboration with Roche and the SMA Foundation, triggering a $10 million payment to PTC from Roche.
The SMA program, which PTC had initially been developing solely in partnership with the SMA Foundation, began in 2006 with the aim of identifing and optimizing compounds that increase production of the survival motor neuron (SMN) protein, the lack of which causes SMA. Then in November 2011 Roche gained an exclusive worldwide license to the SMA program, paying PTC $30 million up front and entitling PTC to $10 million based upon the selection of a development candidate. PTC may receive up to an additional $450 million upon successful completion of other development and commercialization milestones, plus royalties on net product sales worldwide.
"We are highly encouraged by the continued progress," said Karen Chen, CSO of the SMA Foundation, in a statement. "Achieving this milestone brings us closer to developing a treatment for thousands of patients with SMA."

Emmaus trailed 2 games to 1 and then fell way behind in the 5th and decisive game after rallying to win game 4. But the Green Hornets rallied again, led by the play of Gabe Shankweiler, winning game 5 and the match 3 games to 2.
