After an offseason that saw a plethora of player movement, the NBA regular season is under way, and each game that is played teaches lessons about the landscape of the league.
Some developments, like the strong play of Jrue Holiday in Philadelphia, have excited teams' fanbases. Less-impressive performances, like the Denver Nuggets' poor road trip to open the season, have worried those expecting more from their hometown squads.
Injuries are always a concern, as even the best players in the league cannot help if they are held out of action due to an ailment.
While it is too early to panic for most franchises, some of the red flags that have risen are hard to ignore.

Fishing trip provides good chance for rowing
By CHRIS AUSTIN
The other day I was at my favorite watering hole when the conversation turned to fishing. It got me to thinking that I should impart some of my hard-won fishing wisdom to The Beachcomber faithful, specifically how not to do it.
This story unfolds back in the days when I was married. One of the perks of my matrimony was travel. My wife was world-renowned in the area of cleft palates and she traveled the globe teaching the teachers. Occasionally I would get to go, and my job was to look pretty and carry the luggage. One year she was headed to Nepal, and I thought it would be a great opportunity to go fishing. You may be wondering why everybody else goes to Nepal to climb mountains but I go for the fishing. I've been asking myself that ever since.
I was pretty fed up with the over-fished waters of California. The fish had seen every conceivable ruse to make them bite, and they had become quite jaded. My logic was the Nepali fish would be total rubes and wouldn't stand a chance against my state-of-the-art rod, reel and lures.
Our in-country contact found a small mountain lake with a hotel, and I made plans for a weekend trip. The day arrived, I kissed my wife goodbye then hopped in a pedicab for the airport. The local aerodrome was quite different from the international one. It consisted of a rickety shack as the terminal, a grass runway and a plane so old its first pilot was either Wilbur or Orville. I think the pedicab was more technologically advanced. This creaking hulk had a row of seats on each side and three seats at the end. So there was ONE middle seat and guess who got it. I sat in stony silence staring straight down the aisle when it dawned on me that the engines had been running for some time, but we weren't moving.
There was no need to hit the call button and summon the flight attendant because she was sitting right next to me hogging the arm rest. I asked her what the holdup was, and she said there was a cow on the runway. Of course, why hadn't I thought of that. Grass runways must be a bovine favorite so a cow-strike must be a thing pilots here have to worry about. As soon as we were airborne, my snarky attitude turned to unadorned fear as the crazy mountain turbulence kicked in. While I was cinching down my seat belt and practicing the crash position, the attendant got up and gracefully walked to the cockpit. She parted the beaded curtain that separated the pilots from the yahoos, and I will never forget the image. Both pilots were holding up the newspaper like they were reading at the breakfast table. The entire windshield was obscured. What!? They can't take turns reading? I felt like marching up there and suggesting that the local cricket tournament wasn't as important as plowing into sherpas, but my legs were numb from the lap belt.
The next day I was relaxed and at the water's edge, renting a rowboat that was the size of a WW II landing craft. For the next two days I fished the top of the water, the bottom of the lake and everything in between. I rowed and fished and fished and rowed. I used plastic worms, spinners, spoons, jigs and every type of plug ever sold. I even tried using my sock, just because. For the entire trip, the only thing I caught was a leech on my toe. I even used that for bait and still came up empty. Yet every night the warm and friendly staff at the hotel offered a communal dinner for the guests, and every night it was fish. I quickly began telling my fellow tourists I was visiting because I heard the rowing was excellent.
When it came time to fly back to Kathmandu, I got checked in and began cooling my heels in the terminal. Rereading my ticket, I noticed that it said "first class." This was back in the dark ages when total strangers screwed up your travel plans, so I didn't understand what first class meant, since each seat on the plane was as bad as the next. I walked over to a small deli counter and waited for service. It turned out the guy that checked me in also worked the deli. I ordered a coke and as he poured I asked him what on earth paying for a first class ticket gets you. He blinked once and said, "It gets you a free coke." So the trip wasn't a total bust.

BTW: For anyone looking for a good comic strip read, Wil Panganiban's 'Frank and Steinway' is one of the best webcomic's out there, and is now available as an ibook. The strip is about unemployed monsters. It's a lot of fun, and Wil is a great guy. Check it out here: https://itunes.apple.com/us/book/frank-steinway/id602930083?mt=11
BTW: You can check out 'Frank and Steinway' the comic here: http://www.gocomics.com/frank-and-steinway …Also, feel free to post any webcomic's you are currently enjoying. I always like to find new stuff to read. :)
I'll try Frank and Steinway for a while.
A couple of my faves here are Heavenly Nostrils www.gocomics.com/heavenly-nostrils/
and Inkpen http://www.gocomics.com/inkpen/
Also, one I discovered by serendipity while reading Endtown http://www.gocomics.com/endtown is Doc Rat http://www.docrat.com.au/
A couple more not on this site but on Corbett Features http://corbettfeatures.com/ I like Ginger and Shadow http://corbettfeatures.com/ginger.html and Rafferty http://corbettfeatures.com/rafferty.html
With Endtown and Doc Rat especially you probably want to check out the archives as well. One of the nice things about you guys coming here from Daily Ink (even though it meant you weren't in syndication any more, sorry) was that here they post archives all the way back to the beginning and I have been able to follow the strip better here on gocomics.
We fans'd like to see some new strips from you guys, too if it were ever possible. Maybe even just a couple of times a week or something? I know the ending seemed pretty final, but really it just opened more possibilities for the characters, IMHO.
In response to randayn's comment on 3-10 the strip didn't come to an end till the message under the Snapple bottle cap.
You (and others of course) might also check out Myth Tickle on gocomics. http://www.gocomics.com/mythtickle/
So Bridget's available? Wait 3 to 4 months, Norm.
Thanks. Mythtickle looks like fun. I'll try it for a while.
"Go hunt yourself?" This may just be my favorite line ever.
Awww, I feel so bad for you, Norm… Can I have her phone number?
Thanks for the lead, Ed. I'm grabbing the iBook — $1.99 is a deal. Do you know http://squidrowcomics.com/ and http://superfogeys.com/?And are you working on any comics yourself these days?

+ Censoring of survival data (Cox models)
+ Interactive prediction assistant
+ Copy models as R commands
+ PRO: Copy models as Stata, SPSS, or SAS commands
Although you have the option to enter data manually, more likely you'll want to import data from one of the following sources:
File Formats
• Excel (.xls/.xlsx)
• Numbers ('09 and later)
• R workspace files (.RData and .rds)
• JSON (JavaScript Object Notation)
• SQLite
• DBF and MS-Access
• Plain text (Comma-, tab-, and custom-delimited values)
Database Servers
• MySQL
• PostgreSQL
PRO File Formats
• SAS binary (.sas7bdat) and descriptor (.sas) files
• SPSS binary (.sav), portable (.por), and descriptor (.sps) files
• Stata binary (.dta) and dictionary (.dct) files
What's New
New in 1.8.17:
• Improved support for parsing numbers containing invisible characters
• Fix inability to select "Any" condition when censoring a survival time in the Model view
• Fix a crash when building a model with multiple censoring conditions
• Fix a crash when text columns contained no data
• Fix an occasional crash when exporting to SPSS binary format
• Fix an occasional crash when importing from database servers
New in 1.8.16:
• Fix inability to select "Any" condition when censoring a survival time in the Summary view
• Fix interface glitch in the Model view
• New support for exporting long strings to SPSS binary format
• Better support for reading long strings from Stata binary format
New in 1.8.15:
• Improved exporting to Stata binary format. New support for exporting long strings and Unicode text.
• Improved importing of SPPS portable files
• Fix a rare crash when processing non-UTF-8 text data
New in 1.8.14:
• Fix ability to edit names of Filter Sets
• Fix occasional crash after duplicating a table
• Fix instabilities after importing extremely large numbers
• Fix scrolling glitch in the Summary view with multiple columns selected
New in 1.8.13:
• Improved support for reading Stata files with a row limit applied
• Improved support for reading compressed SAS files
• Improved support for writing SPSS files
• Fix an interface glitch when switching between pivots
• Fix an occasional crash when duplicating a table
• Fix an occasional crash after Undo
• Fix an occasional crash when exporting XLSX
New in 1.8:
• REFRESH FROM WEB: Ever wish you could grab data directly from the web? Now you can import files directly from the WWW just by clicking "Import URL" and typing in a web address. Wizard will download the file for you, and keep your analysis up-to-date every time you click the "Refresh Data" button. The new feature is ideal for JSON data, but is designed to work with every file format supported by Wizard.
To get started, choose File > Open URL, or click the new "Import URL" button in the toolbar.
• POST-HOC ANALYSIS: A.k.a., "multiple comparisons corrections". If you're hunting for significant p-values, you should usually apply a statistical correction to account for the number of simultaneous tests you're performing -- this keeps your Type I error rate under control (and also keeps the journal referees happy). Now applying the correction is as simple as checking the box labeled "Adjust for multiple comparisons" and entering a number. To avoid confusion, corrected p-values will appear with an asterisk.
(The applied correction is technically a Šidák correction, which is slightly more accurate than Bonferroni. You are nonetheless encouraged to celebrate the new feature by belting out "Bonferroni" to the tune of "My Sharona".)
• NEW TEXT FUNCTIONS: "Concatenate" joins together multiple text columns with an optional separator. "Convert to Numeric" changes the underlying storage of a text column to be numeric. "Count Characters" and "Count Words" lets you compute the lengths of text values, ideal for analyzing natural-language data.
If you'd like more text functions, just send me an email with your request and I'll take it under consideration. (Choose "Email the Developer" from the Help menu.)
• MISCELLANEOUS IMPROVEMENTS: The Raw Data and Pivot views now remember each column's width when you resize it. (Less "resize hell" after re-opening a document.) The Column menu has been cleaned up to display only functions that are relevant to the selected column. The Pivot view allows you to perform "Count Non-missing" on a category column. The "Enter Full Screen" shortcut is now the same as Apple programs (Control-Command-F).
Note that Wizard Pro now requires OS X 10.9 or later. If you are running an older operating system, please take time to upgrade your system.
Enjoy the new features!

0 What does ETOH stand for? (Lol I've been in this job so long they would laugh at me if I asked now )
Thanks!!Apr 21, '11 by Neuro Guy NP, MSN, RN, APRN, NPEthanol or ethyl alcohol I think. If I am not mistaken we refer to general alcohol as ETOH because it is the main component.Apr 21, '11 by NoviceRN10If it is listed in the pt's history where I work it means they are an alcoholic.Apr 21, '11 by nfdfiremedic, BSN, RNEthanol. The abbreviation comes from its molecular structure.
There are many kinds of alcohols. All of them have an Oxygen (O) and Hydrogen (H) molecule (thus the OH at the end of the term "ETOH.")
The type of alcohol is determined/named by the number of carbon molecules. The alcohol in intoxicating beverages has two carbon molecules. Anything with two carbons gets the prefix "Ethyl." So, the chemical is referred to as either Ethanol or Ethyl Alcohol, and is often just abbreviated "ETOH."
In a clinical context, "ETOH" as part of a history indicates chronic alcoholism. If you see "ETOH on board" or "positive ETOH" it means the patient is intoxicated at that time, i.e. a patient presents to the ED and the medics tell you "restrained driver involved in a two car MVC, positive ETOH."Apr 21, '11 by Esme12, ASN, BSN, RN Senior Moderatorethanol, also called ethyl alcohol, pure alcohol, grain alcohol, or drinking alcohol, is a [color=#0645ad]volatile, [color=#0645ad]flammable, colorless liquid. it is a powerful [color=#0645ad]psychoactive drug and one of the oldest [color=#0645ad]recreational drugs. best known as the type of [color=#0645ad]alcohol found in [color=#0645ad]alcoholic beverages, it is also used in [color=#0645ad]thermometers, as a [color=#0645ad]solvent, and as an [color=#0645ad]alcohol fuel. in common usage, it is often referred to simply as alcohol or [color=#0645ad]spirits.
ethanol is a straight-chain alcohol, and its [color=#0645ad]molecular formula is c2h5oh. its [color=#0645ad]empirical formula is [color=#0645ad]c2[color=#0645ad]h6[color=#0645ad]o. an alternative notation is ch3–ch2–oh, which indicates that the carbon of a methyl group (ch3–) is attached to the carbon of a methylene group (–ch2–), which is attached to the oxygen of a [color=#0645ad]hydroxyl group (–oh). it is a constitutional [color=#0645ad]isomer of [color=#0645ad]dimethyl ether. ethanol is often abbreviated as etoh, using the common organic chemistry notation of representing the ethyl group (c2h5) with et.
lolApr 21, '11 by WIN007Quote from cindersTechnically Ethanyl alcohol. It's the chemical abbreviation. should be etOH I think.What does ETOH stand for? (Lol I've been in this job so long they would laugh at me if I asked now )
Thanks!!Apr 21, '11 by Whispera, CNSETOH = estimated time of happiness ahemApr 21, '11 by P_RNIt means that the patient drinks alcohol=ETOH
I was taught to multiply by 10 the number of drinks a patient claims he drinks. "Oh I drink 1 beer a day? Think 5-10
Another abbreviation some old doctors use inn COOH. for alcohol.

No job in the world of sports is as intimidating, exhilarating, and as stress-ridden as that of an NHL hockey goaltender. Now imagine doing that job while suffering high anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder and depression, and having your career nearly cut short by a skate slicing across your neck. Clint Malarchuk shares his extraordinary and heart-wrenching life story—which includes his long battle with alcoholism and almost ending his life by a gunshot to the head—in his relentless effort to help end the stigma of mental illness and to help others who may suffer as well.
Malarchuk, who was born in Grand Prairie, Alberta, and raised in Edmonton, played junior hockey in the Western Hockey League. He went on to play professionally in the NHL for the Quebec Nordiques, the Washington Capitals, and the Buffalo Sabres, and in the IHL for the Las Vegas Thunder. He compiled a career record of 141 wins, 130 losses, 45 ties, 12 shutouts, and an .885 save percentage.
After leaving the NHL as a player, he served as head coach of the IHL Las Vegas Thunder and the Idaho Steelheads. He was then a goaltending coach for the NHL Florida Panthers and the Columbus Blue Jackets. He became the goaltending consultant for the Atlanta Thrashers in 2010, going from there to the Calgary Flames, and retiring from the team in 2014.
His memoir, The Crazy Game: How I Survived in the Crease and Beyond, was published in 2014.

I write humorous fantasy and science fiction along with an occasional article on fiction writing. I live with wife Pat in Bergenfield, NJ. We have two daughters and five grandchildren.
To date, I have over three dozen stories and articles published. My novel Fool's Gold is a sci-fi retelling of the ancient Rhinegold myth. Tunnel Vision, a collection of twenty previously published stories is available in ebook and print formats. I'm working on a trilogy that is a blend of fantasy and science fiction, another collection of stories and a fantasy novel and a non-fiction book on self-marketing for authors.
My nonfiction work includes a ebook on fiction writing: Build A Better Story.

on Dec. 22, 2011 :
Charmingly funny retelling of some classics and new fairytales from the mind of Hank Quense. I read this to a group of 7 to 10 year olds who thought these were hysterical. Great read for story times and a nice way to spend a day in the sun!!!

I won this e-book from LibraryThing Members Giveaways. Tales From Gundarland is pure fantasy. Well known fairytales taken and spun with an added twist. On reading the prologue I thought this sounds good fun and I expected to be plunged into a similar world to Terry Pratchett's Discworld series. These short stories are more comparable to Shrek but for an older audience. Romeo and Juliet was my favourite and had me laughing my head off. I also liked Boggarts Blue about Burga the warrior cook saving the Princess locked in the tower. This story does draw comparisons to Shrek, the Princess is not pleased with her rescuer who is not of noble blood. Remind you of a certain ginger Princess? King Lazlo is based on Farquaad in the Shrek movies.
Witty and quite funny, these short stories made a change from my usual reading.

Tales from Gundarland is a magical escape into a world of quirky and colorful characters. The author, Hank Quense, writes satirical spin-offs from traditional tales and cleverly blurs the archaic gender stereotypes. Romeo the Ballet-Dancer, Burga the Warrior-Cook, and Gerhilde the Independent Princess are just a few examples of the author's innovative and humorous characters. Tales from Gundarland is filled with lots of laughs, adventure, & wit -Don't miss out - Buy your ticket to Gunderland today! (=

Hank Quense is at it again. He's sharpened up his satirical pen to let the hot air out of the greedy, the power-hungry, and maybe the rest of us. And therein lies a tale…or several. These action-packed, exciting adventures are laced with humor that will have you snickering, if not falling off your chair laughing. What delicious fun. Jan Clark

on June 09, 2010 :
"Like most collections, Gunderland turns out to have both good and not so engrossing stories, but the majority fall well into the "good" side. The Queen's Hero turned out to be my favorite story. The plotting is intricate enough to catch and hold the reader's attention, and with enough scope and detail to generate new interest at most every turn. The battle scenes in Part 4 are some of the best I've read since Agincourt [by Bernard Cornwell] no small feat. This story alone is worth the price of admission." Doc Finch

These comfort soups (clam chowder, French onion, and lentil) make it hard to deny the warm, soothing security of a bowl of soup.
Comfort food comes in many forms, and we all have our personal favorites, but it's hard to deny the warm, soothing security of a bowl of soup — especially when the leaves are piling up outside and the wind's rattling the windowpanes.
Each of the dishes we've included here carries personal meaning for me — mainly because I'm cuckoo for good soup and I love to make it — but also because they all come from family, friends, and my own dog-eared recipe files.

A Changing Landscape: Monitoring Cheatgrass with Satellite Imagery

The Medicine Bow National Forest (MBNF) consists of approximately 560,000 hectares in South Central Wyoming. Elevation in MBNF ranges from approximately 1,000 m to 4,000 m and results in a relatively wide range of local climate variation, wildlife habitat types, and recreational usage. Dominant plant communities include ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa) forests and sagebrush (Artemesia sp.) steppe. Mammal populations of mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus), elk (Cervus canadensis), pronghorn (Antilocapra americana), and moose (Alces alces), constitute important ecological and economic management concerns within the National Forest. In 2012, the Arapaho Fire burned approximately 40,000 hectares of land within MBNF. Cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum), an invasive plant species in the Western U.S., is known to rapidly colonize disturbed sites and dramatically alter historic fire regimes and nutrient/water dynamics, and outcompete native plant species. The Arapaho Fire burned in areas managed as critical habitat, as defined by the Endangered Species Act (ESA), for several wildlife species and the targeted reduction of cheatgrass cover in the region is a priority. To facilitate management practices conducted by project partners, we created a cheatgrass landcover map and phenological profile for the study area using Landsat 8 Operational Land Imager (OLI) and Thermal Infrared Scanner (TIRS) and Terra Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) data from the 2015 growing season. The team used a series of vegetation and topographic indices as predictors of cheatgrass cover as well as field data to construct a Species Distribution Model (SDM) for the Arapaho Fire site. The phenological profile for predicted cheatgrass locations was estimated using Landsat 8 OLI and Terra MODIS data for targeted aerial herbicide spraying.
Congratulations, Wyoming Ecological Forecasting Team! I am proud of each and every one of you.
Great video and very important research! Can you please elaborate on the field methods used to determine cheatgrass presence? Additionally, was your final model validated. If so, what was the accuracy for the cheatgrass class as well as the model overall?
Hi Daryl Ann,
With more field data collection points, we likely would have an improved model. Although the field data provided to us was of excellent quality, it wouldn't have hurt to have a few more data points to train our model with. Please let me know if you have any additional questions!
Gotcha! Thanks!
Neat! Did you look into to see what the cheatgrass probability may look like in the future if current cheatgrass management practices were not effective?
Hi Leigh,
We didn't forecast cheatgrass presence through time in this project, but it is certainly something we are interested in doing in the future. Thanks for the questions!
Great video! Do you know how effective the current cheatgrass management practices have been?
Hi Peru Climate,
Since the Arapaho Wildfire occurred, very little cheatgrass management has started in the area. The grant funded management project that the USFS is working on will be supported through the data produced in this project, and will likely begin in 2016. Great questions!
Great video! Very informative and visually appealing! What were some errors or uncertainties that the project encountered?


text: Thanksgiving The cost of cooking out in Missouri this Fourth of July holiday By Marshall Griffin • Jul 4, 2016 Durrie Bouscaren | St. Louis Public Radio | file photo Missourians will spend a bit more money to cook out this Fourth of July holiday than they did last year, but it's still less than the national average, according to the Missouri Farm Bureau. In general, a cookout in the Show-Me State costs $50.50, which is 61 cents more than it cost a year ago.

From 1906-1931, a mysterious benefactor served Thanksgiving dinner to orphans in St. Louis By Kelly Moffitt • Nov 24, 2015 The Campbell House Museum On Thanksgiving, every year from 1906 until 1931, a luscious, mysterious Thanksgiving dinner would appear before the children living at Father Dunne's Newsboys Home and Protectorate, formerly located at 3010 Washington Ave. in downtown St. Louis.

New Americans in St. Louis reflect on new beginnings that came with their first Thanksgiving here By Kelly Moffitt • Nov 24, 2015 Kelly Moffitt | St. Louis Public Radio When Shatha Alshati had her first American Thanksgiving dinner, there was one particular item on her plate that gave her pause: the turkey. The former Iraqi refugee who arrived here in 2009, said that while there are turkeys in her home country, they aren't frequently eaten. A U.S. citizen as of April 2015, Alshati has perfected the art of serving a golden roasted turkey at the Thanksgiving dinners she now hosts. Shopping for Thanksgiving Day dinner? Cost in Missouri is up a bit this year By Marshall Griffin • Nov 20, 2015 M.Rehemtulla | Flickr The average Thanksgiving Day meal in Missouri will cost $51.92 this year, or $5.19 a person, which is $1.40 more than last year's estimated price tag of $50.52. Those figures come from the Missouri Farm Bureau, which had volunteers shop for ingredients at grocery stores across the state. Thanksgiving Day Meal Higher In Missouri Than National Average, Farm Bureau Says By Marshall Griffin • Nov 26, 2014 M.Rehemtulla | Flickr Missourians will spend more money on their Thanksgiving Day meals than the average American, according to data gathered by the Missouri Farm Bureau.

No Retail Shopping On Thanksgiving, Other Bills, Prefiled In Mo. For 2013 Session By Marshall Griffin • Dec 3, 2012 Marshall Griffin/St. Louis Public Radio Today is the first full day that Missouri lawmakers in both chambers can prefile bills for next year's regular session. One bill in particular comes in the wake of the annual holiday shopping surge that surrounds the Thanksgiving holiday weekend: HB 37 would make it illegal for retail stores to open for business on Thanksgiving Day. The proposal is sponsored by State Representative-Elect Jeff Roorda (D, Barnhart). He says it's in response to the ongoing push by retailers to open for business on nationally-recognized holidays. Tips And Reminders For Thanksgiving Air Travelers By Tina Eaton • Nov 15, 2012 (via Tina Eaton) Officials at Lambert-St. Louis International Airport and the Transportation Security Administration are preparing for a boost in travelers over the Thanksgiving holiday.

State Workers To Get Black Friday Off This Year By Marshall Griffin • Nov 2, 2012 Marshall Griffin/St. Louis Public Radio Governor Jay Nixon (D) has decided to let state employees take the day after Thanksgiving off work this year. The state's latest general revenue report show that Missouri collected 7.5 percent more money last month than it did in October of last year, and State Budget Director Linda Luebbering says that's part of the reason why state workers will get to stay home on November 23rd. How to avoid a Thanksgiving trip to the ER Take it from emergency room doctors, Thanksgiving can be dangerous. I learned the hard way that plumbers' busiest day comes on Black Friday, when pipes are groaning from too many flushes from Thanksgiving guests and too much garbage shoved down the kitchen sink. How about hospitals? Yep, the emergency room can be a pretty busy place, too, according to the American College of Emergency Physicians. Airport officials: travel though Lambert going smoothly so far By Julie Bierach • Nov 23, 2011 (UPI/Bill Greenblatt) On this day before Thanksgiving, a constant, steady flow of passengers are making their way through Lambert-St. Louis International Airport. Airport officials say about 23,000 passengers are going through checkpoints today. Airport Director Rhonda Hamm-Niebruegge says so far the busy travel day has gone smoothly. She says one reason why is because children under 12 years old do not have to remove their shoes when they go through airport security. Thanksgiving Secrets: Cook's Tips From Chris Kimball By Bill Chappell • Nov 23, 2011 A cook's secrets are meant to stay in the kitchen. An off-recipe substitution, a unique addition, an improvised technique — they often come from inspiration, or just a sense of craft, that can make a home chef both proud and protective. Luckily for us, Chris Kimball of America's Test Kitchen is happy to share the secrets he's picked up in more than 30 years of cooking.

Ever since numbers were intorduced on football jerseys in 1928 in a match between Sheffield Wednesday and Arsenal, it has been a convention to give No 10 to the striker, often the best player on the team.
The numbers were assigned strictly by field position with the goalkeeper getting 1 and the strikers getting 9, 10 and 11.
The jersey number 10 has over the years become associated with the best player of the team, with the opponents devicing special strategies to keep the "No 10" in check.
A number 10 need not necessarily be the most diligent player of the team, but he is the most creative one. Also, the charisma they display is not restricted to on the field. Players like Zinedine Zidane, Roberto Baggio, Johan Cruyff and Luis Figo have all been dashing both on and off the field.
Over the years, a number of legends have donned the jersey and lived up to its billing, even furthered the iconic status of the jersey. Pele and Maradona are probably history's best examples. Today, Rooney, Messi and many others wear this jersey with pride, knowing that they have struck fear into their opponents just by pulling that shirt over their head.
With so much of club football being played, a lot of sheen has shifted from this 'mythical' jersey to others. Or has it?
Here is a look at some of the most exciting players who will be donning the Jersey Number 10 in Brazil:
Wayne Rooney:
Eden Hazard :
Luka Modric:
Cesc Fabregas:
Lionel Messi:

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) - A graduate student with Mormon family roots says he will probably be excommunicated next week for articles he has written questioning the validity of the Book of Mormon.
Thomas W. Murphy, 35, published an article in the May Signature Books anthology, "American Apocrypha", that uses genetic data to discredit the Book of Mormon claim that American Indians are heathen descendants of ancient Israel.
The conclusion also is the thesis of his doctoral dissertation at the University of Washington.
"We're told to tell the truth, but not if the truth contradicts church doctrine. I would prefer to tell the truth," Murphy said.

Death Grips is an experimental multi-genre group from Sacramento, CA, formed in 2010. Their music and lives performances consist of vocals from Stefan "Ride" Burnett and production from Zach Hill and Andy Morin. On July 2nd, 2014, the band officially announced their disbanding via a note on their Facebook page. However, on October 21, 2015, they announced they will be releasing a new album dubbed Bottomless Pit.
The band's music has been described as punk rock, hip-hop, noise, industrial, and electronic proclivities. Their sound ranges from minimalistic and trunk-rattling heaviness (such as on "No Love"), to rapping about dark subjects over heavily distorted samples (like on "I've Seen Footage.")
Frontman Stefan Burnett's violent lyrics match draw inspiration from a struggle both against himself and against the world at large, focusing lyrically on themes of individualism, paranoia, mental illness, drug use, occultism, and the emotionally degenerative nature of modern society.

It is interesting that when you move, suddenly everybody you talk to has a cousin with a moving company.
And then they are disappointed that you have went with a professional rather than gamble on a small, family-held, business.

I had a problem. First I have set up an UITextView with these parameters:
view.backgroundColor = UIColor.blueColor()
view.text = "An example text"
view.textColor = UIColor.whiteColor()
view.textContainerInset.top = 0
view.textContainerInset.bottom = 0
I wanted to be able to centre the text in the view vertically. This should be easy, one just needs to position the top of the text according to the formula:
top = (container.height - content.height) / 2. However, when you look at the actual look of the UITextView you will see this:
view.font = UIFont.boldSystemFontOfSize(100.0)
view.font = UIFont(name: "DINCondensed-Bold", size: 100.0)
Ouch, there is a semi-randomly placed offset at the top of the text. Turns out the point size of a font is not always the one you have demanded. However it is possible to get the actual height. An
UIFont class provides a bunch of useful metrics:
view.font = UIFont.boldSystemFontOfSize(100.0)
view.font.capHeight // 70.5
view.font.pointSize // 100.0
view.font.ascender // 95.2
view.font.lineHeight // 119.3
view.font = UIFont(name: "DINCondensed-Bold", size: 100.0)
view.font.capHeight // 71.2
view.font.pointSize // 100.0
view.font.ascender // 71.2
view.font.lineHeight // 100.0
On a graph this would look like this:
Finally, the method you can now use is:
extension UITextView {
func centerTextVertically() {
guard let ascender = view.font?.ascender else {
guard let capHeight = view.font?.capHeight else {
view.textContainerInset.top = (view.bounds.height - ascender - (ascender - capHeight)) / CGFloat(2.0)
Note that this will only for one liners and only if you know the height of the
UITextView (i.e.: the height was given to it on creation)
The rumour about Apple removing the 3.5mm jack in the future iPhone has wreaked havoc around the Internet. There are several arguments for and against it, but I think there is only one that is valid: it would make it impossible to create accessories for iPhone without going through the MFI process.
Case in point, Apple has recently featured this application in their advert "Ridiculously Powerful".
This application would probably never exist without the possibility to leverage a cheap and universal interface with the device.
I have moved the site to a more personal domain. From now on the primary URL for this site is from http://yozy.net
Here is a theory. There have been quite a lot of rumours about a new "iPhone 6C" which ought to have the 6's internals in a brand new 4" plastic body. However, with no parts leaks this late into summer, the existence of this model is not a given. (side note: there are no leaks for the iPhone 6S plus out either)
We know that Apple has already broken the pattern of older devices moving down the price range with the 5C. I think this year the pattern could be broken again.
After the iPhone 5C was introduced, the Internet was swamped with articles describing how much of a flop it was. The reality is that most people who buy iPhones in October buy the latest and beefiest one.
So, what if Apple introduced the new, plastic, iPhone 6C in September but only made it available in shops in December for the holidays? This would give them approximately until October to ramp up the production, which would explain the lack of the leaks.
Not only would they protect themselves. But they would also get an excuse for the lower number of phones sold.
Edit 2015-09-14
Well, first predition, first failure. My score so far: 0 out of 1.
In order to clean up all stuff I am moving the Gulf theme to a GitHub repository. Currently it is available for QtCreator and Xcode. A Vim port will follow soon-ish.
I've decided to simplify the website's source. I went from 20 SCSS files to one. My goal is to serve no cruft. I've gone through all superfluous classes (bye bye clearfix). The grid is gone in favour of flex.
I've added my GitHub page to social links and changed the icons to SVG.
Next step is moving Gulf to GitHub, getting rid of jQuery and finally; writing.
I wonder if the people who complain about the Monument Valley in app purchase also think that paying $30 for a Starcraft 2 expansion is preposterous. After all, they've paid 60 bucks already, no?
Maybe sequels to movies should be free too while we are at it.
This has been in Rennes for some while now. One has to wonder what this particular person's feud with Google is to express their hate like this.
In any case, it is quite an impressive feat.
So I have fixed the atom feed. Hopefully.

Chris Morgan Hired to Write 'Fast and Furious 6' As Part Of Production Deal
Posted on Tuesday, April 19th, 2011 by Germain Lussier
Fast Five is still over a week from being released but its writer has not only been hired to write the sixth installment, he's been given a brand new production deal. Chris Morgan, who wrote Wanted, The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift, Fast and Furious and Fast Five in addition to the currently in production 47 Ronin starring Keanu Reeves, just signed a first-look-deal with Universal that'll keep him writing and developing ideas at the studio for at least two years.
One of the first projects he'll tackle is Fast and Furious 6, yet another sequel in the successful crime and car franchise. He's also been rumored to be developing a Terminator movie with his Fast and Furious director Justin Lin as well as the cartoon adaptation Bakugan. After the jump, read some quotes from Morgan about the types of films he hopes to make. Read More »

Farm Team
Among hipsters in the late '70s and early '80s, admitting you liked Fleetwood Mac was enough to get you sent into exile. But damn it, those Lindsey Buckingham tunes were captivating. And while never cool (read: elite/outré), the fusion of folk-inspired melodies, restrained rockin' crunch, and winsome vocals endures, and the members of Friction Farm are Mick and company's proud partisans in South Florida.
Though often augmented by additional players, Friction Farm is at heart the duo of singer/bassist Christine Stay and singer/guitarist Aidan Quinn (no, not the actor). Stay's voice has the reflective tenderness of 10,000 Maniacs-era Natalie Merchant and the commandingly emotive range of Concrete Blonde's Johnette Napolitano, while Quinn's guitar combines dulcet jangle, down-home picking, and chunks of stadium-rocking power chords. If this be the stuff of uncool, then call me Barney Fife.
Friction Farm performs at 10 p.m. Sunday, February 27, at Dada, 52 Swinton Ave., Delray Beach. The show is free. Call 561-330-3232.

Aussie Open cakewalk takes Swiss Stan to 400 career wins
AFP · 23 Jan 2016, 17:40
Published: 23 Jan 2016 17:40 GMT+01:00
- Czechmate: Wawrinka downs Stepanek in straight sets (21 Jan 16)
- Federer cruises to win against practice partner (20 Jan 16)
- Wawrinka wins hat trick at Chennai Open (10 Jan 16)
The Swiss world number four had too much firepower for the 51st-ranked Czech, reeling off a 6-2, 6-3, 7-6 (7/3) win in just under two hours on Rod Laver Arena.
Wawrinka, who beat Rafael Nadal to win his first Grand Slam title in the 2014 Australian Open final, will face boom-serving Canadian Milos Raonic in an enticing round of 16 match on Monday.
Wawrinka's stylish one-handed backhand was again to the fore and it was behind 11 of his 45 winners, which also included 18 aces.
The Swiss, who won his second major title at last year's French Open denying Novak Djokovic a coveted calendar-year Grand Slam, broke Rosol's service four times.
"It's never been easy against Lukas, he's a tough player, but I started well, I was moving well, returning well and I like the court and its condition," Wawrinka said.
"I am trying to improve, I am working hard, practising hard. There are many things I can do to improve.
"I think I am playing better than last year, but all the other players are improving as well, so it doesn't mean I am going to be better in the rankings, but I am focusing on myself and so far I am happy with my start to the year."

Eliakunda graduated from Enaboishu Secondary School in Northern Tanzania in 2013. She had been one of the most dedicated of our Kisa Program students, demonstrating creativity, commitment, and great aptitude. It was, therefore, not a difficult decision to make when she applied to AfricAid's University Scholarship Fund for support to allow her to accept the place she had been offered at St Augustine University of Tanzania.
Eliakunda is the first in her family to go to university. She comes from a farming area on the lower slopes of Mt Meru in Northern Tanzania and her family are subsistence farmers, who often struggle to make ends meet. This was especially true after Eliakunda's father passed away when she was a child. Her mother worked very hard, and with some additional outside help, was able to send her youngest daughter to secondary school. Supporting her to go to university, however, was going to prove too much of a stretch, even though this bright young woman had worked so hard to gain a place in the Bachelor of Arts (Sociology) program.
This is where the AfricAid Scholarship Fund can really make a difference to an individual's future. Each year we accept applications from young women like Eliakunda for a partial scholarship. The amount awarded to each successful applicant is normally about $500 per year of study – the family raises the rest. The scholarship is paid directly to the university to partially cover the cost of tuition.
What is a relatively small amount of money has had a large impact on the course of a young woman's life – a young woman who we have no doubt will be a great role model and inspiration to other young women who struggle for a brighter future. And the only reason AfricAid is able to do this is because of donors like you. We have only reached about 10% of our target so far, but we hope to reach it so that we can say 'yes' to more young women like Eliakunda. Thank you so much for helping us get there.
AfricAid provides university scholarships for girls who graduate from the Kisa Project, a two-year leadership, life-skills, and entrepreneurship training for high school girls in Tanzania. Scholarships are provided to Kisa Scholars who not only graduate from Kisa but also pass the national exam to graduate from secondary school. This year 100% of scholars graduated in a country of which only 5% of girls graduate secondary. Even better, 100% of the young women are preparing to attend university and because of supporters like you, the girls who need financial assistance to pay for tuition will receive a scholarship! We need your continued support to increase our scholarships and assist more amazing young women leaders to pursue their higher education and dreams.
The school year is quickly coming to a close! Eight young women are about to graduate secondary school and will start university or vocational training after their Leadership Immersion Experience in July 2014. These young women are Kisa graduates. AfricAid's Kisa Project mentors girls in the areas of leadership, life-skills, and entreprenuership. These graduates then mentor a group of 10-15 young secondary school girls during Leadership Immersion to pass along the skills they received during the two year Kisa Project training. Upon graduating from the Kisa Project, the girls join the Kisa Alumni Association which connects them to a network of accomplished Kisa leaders who are using their leadership skills to change their communities. Once the young women graduate from university, they can apply to be Kisa Project mentors or become involved in AfricAid's business incubator. With so little job opportunities in Tanzania, university graduates often have a difficult time securing a decent job after graduating. Our business incubator trains and connects girls to jobs in the social enterprise sector. We provide young women with university scholarships to give them the opportunity to succeed and through our Kisa Alumni and business incubator programs, AfricAid makes sure each young woman is provided with enough resources and training to be a powerful woman leader in Tanzania.
One of the biggest challenges that young women face in Tanzania is the lack of opportunity to attend university. Our University Scholarship Program is geared towards girls who graduate from our Kisa Program, AfricAid's leadership development program for secondary school scholars. AfricAid offers eight competivite scholarships for girls to attend university or vocational training colleges. This year, eight young women have been identified. The girls graduate in May and will start university or vocational training after their Leadership Immersion Experience in July 2014. Upon graduating from the Kisa Program, the girls join the Kisa Alumni Association which connects them to a network of accomplished Kisa leaders who are using their leadership skills to change their communities. University graduates can apply to join the Kisa Program as mentors and the cycle of empowering and developing new leaders continues.
Meet Husna, a soon to be graduate of secondary school in Tanzania. Husna wants to become a teacher at a secondary level of education. She believes in the impact education has on children and enjoys interacting with young people. Husna says that becoming a teacher would be a dream come true.
With graduation coming soon, our students are eager to attend teacher training classes to be the next leaders in education in their communities. Having gone through school in overcrowded classrooms with under qualified teachers who cannot give each student the time he or she deserves, these young women are determined to change the education system by becoming competent, passionate teachers in Tanzania. By supporting girls to become teachers you are not only helping one young woman but also her family, students and community. Monique Villa, CEO of the Thomson Reuters Foundation, says, "Seventy per cent of a woman's salary goes back into her family. If you want to tackle poverty, you help girls become women, get educated and employed."

India Journal - June 4By Meredith Jagger
Edited by Jason Arthur
Project Manager's note: About a month ago, Dr. Elizabeth Gailey sent an e-mail to our next gen website. In short, she was asking for help. She said she would be taking a group of students from the University of Tennessee-Chattanooga to Southern India. She thought it would be great to have the students literally record their trip by creating radio "diaries." She said she had no radio experience and didn't even know what kind of equipment to buy. E-mails such as these are the stuff we live for, so I had one of our next gen technical advisers make some suggestions. In return, I asked Dr. Gailey to pick a student who could send back dispatches as her students embarked upon and then experienced traveling in Southern India (just like Michelle Betz, instructor at the University of Central Florida and Emily Schmall, a student at Bard College, did when they spent time, respectively, in Rwanda and Guatemala).
Below is the first dispatch as the group leaves for India on June 4.
During the symphony intermission I went outside to check my messages; I had one. It said, in brief, that I had been accepted to go on the trip to India. While I only vaguely remember the rest of the concert, Mahler's 9th, it was suddenly surreal to be sitting in a restored Beaux Arts theater listening to a professional ensemble play some of Western civilizations' greatest music while my mind wandered to a place of dust and spices that I had only read about in books and seen in movies.
I am a twenty-year-old senior creative writing major at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. I have been selected, along with a11 of my peers, to participate in the seminal run of a summer course aptly titled, "UTC Journeys to Sacred India." The goal of this program is to allow students to experience a part of the world that is often overlooked. The project is the brainchild of Dr. William Harman, head of the UTC department of Philosophy and Religion, who specializes in south Indian religion, culture and language (Tamil). Along with Dr. Elizabeth Gailey, Professor of Communications, and several other specialists, we 12 students will participate in a five-week adventure.
As I have been preparing for this trip, acquaintances have asked what my summer plans are. I have been asked by others and am asking myself, "Why am I doing this?" The most common reaction I've come across from others is, "Wow, India is certainly not on my travel wish list! Don't drink the water and have fun." Many people mistakenly assume that this is a type of mission trip. Being sponsored by a secular institution, it certainly is not. I am far more interested in observing and listening to others speak of their culture, rather than attempting to impress any aspect of mine on them. (So is India another version of Mahler's 9th, in that I, initially at least, see myself as a spectator?) I am also, like several of the other students going, neither a religious studies nor a communications major.
I am merely a volunteer who signed up for an experiment. I applied for the program on a "serious whim," knowing the selection process would be competitive. Two factors seemed to prompt me to first apply for and then accept the opportunity to go on this trip: curiosity and thrift (since the program wouldn't cost me much more than the price of the airline ticket). I wasn't initially as concerned with the final destination, as much as with the process. My only agenda was, and is, to experience first hand something foreign and to learn as much as possible, while remaining safe and having a great time. And I know that India is not a place I would have ended up traveling to by myself -- France or Japan, maybe, but I wasn't very likely to venture into the vast Eurasian continent that lies between the two.
During May, I have been preparing myself for this rash adventure, knowing that there is only so much I can do. I have been vaccinated against and gotten medicine for a variety of medical dangers. I have stocked up on toilet paper and intellectually prepared myself to deal with some of the million plus people in India who apparently don't use or sell it. And, I have been reading up on aspects of the culture that interest me academically, in preparation for course related research that I will be conducting while there.
All of this preparation is for an experience that I know will teach me many things, from being able to survive without a toothbrush, campsuds and a change of clothes when necessary, to hopefully beginning to understand the humanity of a people who seem so different from me.
I am almost numb with excitement. I will board a plane in less than 24 hours. I can no longer stress about packing, nor can I begin to miss the people I haven't yet left. This trip is intimidating for so many reasons, which I hope will make it more exciting in the end.
At the end of this first of six or seven weekly entries, I would like to thank those who have made this trip possible, from logistical, bureaucratic and financial standpoints. I want to also thank my parents for being enthusiastic despite their concerns for my safety and their small doubts. Last summer it was Slovenia and Croatia, this year India, next year…the moon? (They say, "As long as she sends postcards, she must be fine.")
Meredith Jagger is a senior at the University of Tennessee-Chattanooga and will be sending us updates through out the summer.
