Costa Rica Counts on RFID to Monitor BallotsStarting next month, the nation will begin using battery-assisted EPC Gen 2 tags to track the collection of bags used to transport paper ballots.
Nov 05, 2010—Costa Ricans made history earlier this year, by electing their first female president, Laura Chinchilla. This coming December, there will be another first associated with that country's elections. Radio frequency identification will be used to track and monitor the nylon sacks in which paper ballots filled out by voters are delivered from each of Costa Rica's polling places to a central ballot-counting warehouse located in San Jose, the country's capital. The goal is to boost the speed and accuracy of the ballot-collection process, explains Wilbert De La Hormoza, the CEO of Grupo Diverscan, the systems integrator that designed and will deploy the RFID system for Costa Rica's upcoming district elections, which will take place on Dec. 5, 2010.
In past elections, the bags were checked in manually as they were brought into the central warehouse. But this process is tedious, De La Hormoza says, and can result in mistakes. It also takes a very long time, since the bags, once they begin arriving at the central warehouse—at around 6 pm on election day—often come in droves, causing the process of checking them in to get backed up. Using a battery-assisted passive (BAP) EPC Gen 2 RFID tag to identify each bag as it arrives at the warehouse, he adds, should greatly reduce the amount of time it takes election workers to process the bags. In addition, the same type of BAP tags will be attached to the identification badges issued to observers from the different political groups, who will be coming to the warehouse during election night. The intention is to collect data that shows which observers arrived at the warehouse, and when. The RFID system has been tested, De La Hormoza says, and an RFID-tagged ballot bag has been issued to each of the 5,250 polling places that will participate in the Dec. 5 election (the larger, presidential elections consist of 7,000 polling places, but the next such election will not take place until 2014). Grupo Diverscan selected PowerID to provide the RFID tags for the system, Motorola to supply readers, and Costa Rican software developer idGen to provide software to collect and filter the tag data. PowerID's PowerG-U403 tag, tuned to operate in the 902 to 928 MHz range, will be attached, via a strong adhesive, to each ballot bag, as well as to the employee badges. The tag is compliant with the EPC Gen 2 standard, but its onboard battery allows for a longer read range than would be seen in a totally passive Gen 2 tag. The read range of the company's line of PowerG tags, says Erez Kahani, PowerID's CEO, is roughly 165 feet in open air. Upon arriving at the central warehouse, the bags will be brought in on pushcarts through a reader portal formed around the main entrance, using a Motorola XR480 fixed-position reader and Motorola antennas, to create a read zone all around the entrance. The bags will then be moved down a long hallway and, before entering the ballot-counting area, carted through a second portal (also using the Motorola XR480 reader and antennas), in order to provide a second reading zone, in the event that any tags are not read by the first portal. Each time a tag is read, the idGen software will collect the unique ID encoded to that tag, as well as a time stamp, and forward this information to a main database, where each ID is associated with the polling station to which that tag was issued.

Leonid Pasternak, a leading Russian Impressionist, was an artist with wide European cultural interests. He was born in Odessa on the Black Sea in 1862, and taught in the Moscow School of Art from 1894-1921. Here he was the friend and colleague of the artists Repin, Serov and Levitan. He studied in Munich as a young man, and travelled extensively in Europe before the Revolution. He married Rosalia Kaufmann, a gifted pianist, who bore him four children: the eldest was the poet, Boris Pasternak, author of Doctor Zhivago. In 1921 Pasternak with his wife and two daughters left Moscow for Germany, where the artistic milieu included his friends Max Liebermann and Lovis Corinth. Following the rise of Hitler, Pasternak came to England in 1938. The last years of his life were spent working in Oxford. The Pasternak Family Collection is held in the house where he died in 1945.
Leonid Pasternak was the friend and illustrator of Tolstoy. His portraits include studies from life of writers (Tolstoy, Gorky, Rilke, Remizov, Hauptmann); musicians in performance (Scriabin, Chaliapin, Busoni, Rachmaninov); other distinguished contemporaries including Einstein, Hoffman, Gordon Craig and Lenin.
Sketches of family scenes – his wife at the piano, and their four children reading and playing - are among his most intimate and charming works. His landscapes stretch from the Black Sea to the Bavarian Alps and Palestine.

When the alleged comedian Frankie Boyle was banged to rights for picking on handicapped children, I wondered why so soon after picking on Jews he hadn't simply picked on Jewish handicapped children instead, and thus made his set more streamlined.
But – Boyle's dismally predictable Israel-baiting aside – one of the most interesting aspects of the whole row was that the parents of a Down's syndrome child who complained had not merely heard OF the aren't-handicapped-kids-uncool "joke" but had actually heard it being told first-hand, as they were in the audience of Boyle's live show. And they confirmed that they were previously fans of the scumbag! Which pretty much made their complaint worthless.
If you find amusement in hearing people who you personally have no relation to mercilessly monstered – as a paid punter for a man notorious for his monstering – then you really do look rather stupid when you take offence at a jibe that hits you where you live.
I thought of this when the most recent unravelling of Mel Gibson's rep came to light last week. Of course, he shouldn't have called his gorgeous Russian girlfriend a fat pig who deserved to be sexually violated by racial minorities, but on the other hand, what was SHE doing hooking up with a man already revealed as a rabid anti-Semite? And similarly, how hypocritical do the showbiz pals now turning on him look for standing by the creep the first time he was caught out? Are we to assume that, as they now appear to object to racism against black people, then they must to some extent have shared his prejudices against a minority who it is now acceptable in certain liberal circles to abuse: the Jews?
How much is too much, when it comes to standing by one's racist friend? Or indeed, rapist friend, if one considers the case of Roman Polanski, in whose defence some real corkers have been trotted out by the hundred or so film-industry luminaries – including Tilda Swinton, David Lynch and Woody Allen – who appear to believe that because he makes good films, he should have been allowed to molest this child with impunity.
Best was Whoopi Goldberg, who said last year on television show The View – of the sodomy of a drugged child – that "I know it wasn't rape-rape. It was something else, but I don't believe it was rape-rape." She added that the experience wasn't one she'd have wanted for her own underage daughter; well, yes, we gathered that – it's called HYPOCRISY. Hypocrisy-hypocrisy, even.
The novelist Robert Harris, who wrote a New York Times article defending Polanski after the perv made a film of one of Harris's novels, was similarly cavalier with other people's children. "Social mores change all the time," he told The Guardian earlier this year. "In the mid-1970s, it would've been astonishing, say, to see two men holding hands in the streets. And the attitude to having a fling with a girl, or whatever, was quite different then – I wasn't characterising what he did as 'a fling'," he added. "But social values do change." A fling-fling, perhaps?
Harris is also friends with that other charmer, Peter Mandelson, currently making waves with his Judas-kiss-and-tell tome, of whom he has said: "I'm really pleased that some of the qualities one had seen in him are now more widely detected. When the pack turns on anyone – and this goes back to Roman – then that is when I instinctively head in the other direction." What a strange mentality it is which sees some sort of maverick merit in acting as cheerleader for a child rapist – and again for a creature who comes across as an unholy hybrid of Machiavelli and Hyacinth Bouquet. And how odd was it that Gordon Brown knew him to be a viper, yet freely clasped him to his bosom; THAT was when I for one started to believe that Brown was insane. He can't complain about being bitten now – it's just like that old soul song, "The Snake"!
Almost as odd as Oksana Grigorieva being attracted to aged, drunken, anti-Semitic multi-millionaire Mel Gibson. Still, if she's seen the light, let's hope it's not too late for Roman's legions and Peter's friends. Can't you just imagine Mandy threatening to bury his ex-beloved Tony in the rose garden? Back away from that spade, Robert Harris, while there's still time! Or at least before Mandy demands his wicked way with your doubtless divine collection of extra-virgin olive oils.
Trouble with five-star swimming pools
Look on the bright side, I always say, and even being a peri-menopausal semi-cripple can have its advantages. When I first got together with my husband 15 years ago, the effort to persuade him that I was a cultured, open-minded sort found me slinking in his wake round every museum and art gallery in Christendom.
But now I am married and in poor health, I will never need to see another Surrealist sofa or Gothic gate again. Result! Instead, my husband has learned to appreciate the finer points of five-star swimming pools, from the calm of the Indian Ocean to the fevered fleshpots of Marbella. Well, if it's good enough for David Hockney...
Only one things spoils these visions in blue: the number of jet-set brats who infest them. Low-level kiddy-grizzling is a given on holiday, like cystitis, but the degrees these well-bred lulus take it to is something else. See how many of these Euro-morons you can spot:
Jack the Ripper
(stubbed toe)
Screamin' Jay Hawkins
(thwarted inflatable use)
Boston Strangler
(perceived favouring of sibling over self)
The haemorrhoidal stevedore
(unexpected introduction of sun hat)
The unbearable lightness of being
(sudden denial of alphabetti spaghetti and substitution of something green instead)
And a special category just for German tots: The Kaiser contemplates his dwindling empire
(dummy removed from gob)
Women's expectations of gay men are simply tragic
Tonight sees the return of Gok Wan's How To Look Good Naked on Channel 4, hot on the harassed heels of Gok's Fashion Fix. When did this simpering ninny become the Oracle?
What men want from lesbians is almost movingly simple: they want to watch them having sex. A good number of women, on the other hand, appear to want rather more from gay men: best friend, surrogate husband, therapist, wardrobe mistress. Tragic or what?
Trust me, the definitive sign of ageing for a feminist isn't noticing that the policemen are getting young. It's asking, à la Professor Higgins, why CAN'T a woman be more like a man?

Harlan Coben follows four consecutive #1 "New York Times" bestsellers with a stand-alone thriller in the vein of his beloved breakout novels "Caught" and "Hold Tight."
Megan is a suburban soccer mom who once upon a time walked on the wild side. Now she's got two kids, a perfect husband, a picket fence, and a growing sense of dissatisfaction. Ray used to be a talented documentary photographer, but at age forty he finds himself in a dead- end job posing as a paparazzo pandering to celebrity-obsessed rich kids. Jack is a detective who can't let go of a cold case-a local husband and father disappeared seventeen years ago, and Jack spends the anniversary every year visiting a house frozen in time, the missing man's family still waiting, his slippers left by the recliner as if he might show up any moment to step into them.
Three people living lives they never wanted, hiding secrets that even those closest to them would never suspect, will find that the past doesn't recede. Even as the terrible consequences of long-ago events crash together in the present and threaten to ruin lives, they will come to the startling realization that they may not want to forget the past at all. And as each confronts the dark side of the American Dream- the boredom of a nice suburban life, the excitement of temptation, the desperation and hunger that can lurk behind even the prettiest facades- they will discover the hard truth that the line between one kind of life and another can be as whisper-thin as a heartbeat.
With his trademark combination of page-turning thrills and unrivaled insight into the dark shadows that creep into even the happiest communities, Harlan Coben delivers a thriller that cements his status as the master of domestic suspense.

Mu are very excited to announce Jlin's long awaited second album "Black Origami". A percussion-led tour de force, it's a creation that seals her reputation as a unique producer with an exceptional ability to make riveting rhythmic music.
Teengirl Fantasy, the duo of Logan Takahashi and Nick Weiss, return with '8AM', their first full-length since 2012's 'Tracer'. '8AM' is music that replicates that headspace when you've seen the sun come up, but sleep is still way off. It's music of the in-between time, between tonight and tomorrow, when you're not ready to let the feeling of right here and right now go. Your body is spent, but your spirit holds on to the memory. A new energy or a different route.
Few artists have the ability to totally seduce over a few spins like Italy's Herva. What may seem messy at first listen starts to fall into sharper definition and 'Hyper Flux' makes a very strong case for being his most seductive and mature record yet.
Jlin returns with the first fruits of her new work since last years 'Free Fall' EP. 'Dark Lotus' is a transition between 'Dark Energy', her debut album, and her forthcoming 'Black Origami' full-length. A-side 'The Escape of the Blvck Rxbbit (ft. Avril Stormy Unger)' is the more traditional of the two tracks, starting off proceedings […]

Android holds over 30% of tablet market as of Q2 2011, claims new report
Working For Notebookcheck

Apple's iPad may not be as ubiquitous in the tablet market as previously thought, at least according to a new report by analytical company Strategy Analytics.
According to sys-con.com, recent research from Strategy Analytics claims iPad is in first position with 61.3 percent of the market as of Q2 2011, down from 94.3 percent a year earlier. The huge drop is, of course, attributed to the rise of Google's Android platform that has reportedly grown from just 2.9 percent in Q2 2010 to an amazing 30.1 percent of the tablet market in Q2 2011. Overall, total global tablet shipments reached 15.1 million units in Q2 2011, up 331 percent from Q2 2010.
It should be noted, however, that the marketshare data is based off of units shipped to stores, not sold to customers. Thus, according to the data, Android tablet production has skyrocketed, but actual sales numbers may look quite dissimilar from what the research presents.
"Multiple Android models distributed across multiple countries by multiple brands such as Samsung, Acer, Asus, Motorola and others are driving volumes," said Strategy Analytics Director Neil Mawston. "However, no Android vendor yet offers a blockbuster model to rival the iPad, and demand for many Android vendors' products remains patchy." In particular, Mawston may be referring to the so far modest sales of the Motorola Xoom.
The research also shows Microsoft beating out RIM in the tablet market, at 4.6 percent and 3.3 percent marketshare, respectively. It appears that the recently released PlayBook was not enough to outship Windows-based tablets, such as those from Fujitsu and Gigabyte.
With Apple supposedly losing over one-third of the tablet market share in less than a year, it is still unclear if people are actually buying the products being offered by its competitors. A study last month showed the iPad accounting for 89% of all tablet web traffic in the United States. There is no doubt, however, that the Android platform is at least eating away part of the pie from the lucrative Apple-dominated market.

Exhausted by another week of the show currently masquerading as General Hospital? Want to be reminded of how seriously, staggeringly, immeasurably better this show used to be? Read on.
(I know what you're thinking -- Dude, you're just now getting around to recapping the SOAPNet Christmas marathon? The answer is yes. You have my permission to be disappointed in me, or amazed by my slackerdom. As my penance, I've provided extra screencaps. Plus this post will be almost entirely free of bitchiness. Except about Miranda. And Tom. And maybe some hairstyling and fashion issues. There is a limit to how nice I can be, even when trying to curry favor. Sorry.)
It's Jax and Brenda's first Christmas together! (That "Eeeeeee!" you hear is Mallory, at the mere mention of Jax and Brenda.) Jax brought Brenda a whole box full of Christmas decorations from Australia, which he bursts into his penthouse with, forcing her to scurry and hide something (presumably his gift). Brenda hadn't gotten a tree because she wasn't sure Jax would be back in time, but of course he would, because he's dreamy. So they're off to get a tree. Jax jokes that he's going to cut down one in Edward Quartermaine's yard. Ooooh, the Jax/Q family rivalry! Remember when there were rivalries on this show that didn't involve hitmen and "coffee importing"? Sigh.
Query: Why did I find Ingo (and Jax) so damned hot when he had outfits and a haircut like this?
The draw of an Australian accent is a remarkable thing. It is truly a wonder how I managed to maintain my Mel Gibson hate for so many years (long before he publicly became an epic ass, I mean).

Like a tired brand getting a face lift, the revelation that Mattel will trot a line of 50's inspired Barbie dolls prompted Farkers to Botox another trope, the inapropropriate occupation Barbie.
Pictured below are the two best: Postpartum Barbie and Permanent Vegetative State Barbie.
That's almost as bad as "Scottish Fling Barbie," or "Lingerie Barbie 1" or "Lingerie Barbie 2" whom there's absolutely nothing indelicate about, which is why of course they only show you heads-up shots of the doll sporting, "A white satin bra and panty ensemble trimmed with white lace and pale pink bows, white stockings and garters." No worries, there's a shot here (white) and here (black).
Shock, horror, titillation.

Coming and Going
Sometimes there is so little going on I have to make things up and construct fantastic lies just so I have something to blog about. It's true. It's onerous and burdensome too, so you would think when life gets genuinely busy, and really interesting, I would be taking advantage of the plethora, and blogging frequently. Blogging eloquently and descriptively with all of this fresh and factual material at my disposal.
A lot has been happening. People coming and going, fun gatherings. Even the sun made a long overdue appearance. Our days and nights have been full.
For example: We had a visit from our dear friend, Tamsyn.
At the risk of sounding like one of those highly emotional and sentimental people, I actually combed the archives for "Tamsyn" pictures and posts.
And now? Well, now I am very emotional and highly sentimental. We've known Tamsyn a long time. We were neighbors at the TreeHouse, and we did things together like our families camping together, and hanging out. Even though we saw her in January, two years ago, I still have not quite recovered from them moving away.
Sweet, good looking, smart kids.
But check out that salad!
Alex and Tamsyn were headed to a Sky Consortium party at Isaac's and they needed a dish to share. I am getting kinda lazy these days, and I thought "chips and salsa, or cold cuts." (These admissions are getting embarrassing.)
Fortunately, I kept my ideas to myself, and Alex and Tamsyn took a more interesting and tasty route. Inspired by the match-up in the final game of the World Cup, and feeling sympathetic toward the losing team, they decided to look for a Dutch recipe.
I can't find it! I will get a recipe link in here, because the salad turned out wonderfully delicious.
They were in the kitchen crumbling goat cheese, and cooking nectarines on the griddle, mixing a lemon and walnut oil dressing... and the whole time I was just listening to them and feeling like it was a typical day in the TreeHouse, when they all played and cooked, camped, read, explored, and laughed together... and it was as though no time at all had passed.
Weren't we blessed? All those great times the children shared, we shared. I miss them... those opportunities and experiences were wonderful.
I cannot say more. I am overcome with emotion and sentimentality.
As though to emphasize how quickly time passes, Tamsyn's visit was very short. And much to our dismay not only did she leave, but Alex did too! Tamsyn is completing her California visit with other friends, and Alex is in Oregon on an adventure of his own.
And Maria? Maria is one heartbroken little girl.
It was hard enough that her big sister Tamsyn was coming and going so quickly, but seeing Alex packed, and leaving without her was downright devastating.
Geoff and I loved hearing their voices... Alex, Max, Tamsyn, William, and Maria... all of them laughing and talking, playing together. The house is quieter tonight, except when Maria is crying, or insisting I explain how I could have forgotten to get her a plane ticket too?
He called me last night to describe the flight delays, and the wild ride on the twin prop plane that wasn't too much bigger than our family van. He said he was going out to walk by the water, reminding me that it was still light out where he is, up north.
Time does pass. And these comings and goings are good, even necessary, and unavoidable, actually. But they do get one emotional and sentimental.

| AMD&ATI Combo - DFI LANParty RDX200 CF-DR Since nVIDIA launched nFORCE-integrated chipset, nVIDIA has launched nF2 for K7, nF3 for K8 and well-selling nF4 to grab the K8 market. ATI is 1 of the 2 largest VGA chipset makers. Since last year, their integrated IGP was getting better. Now, it combines with great OC blood from DFI LANParty UT RDX200 CF-DR. We are looking forward to seeing the performance. Outlook The pack is changed to red. Looks great, different with others. Accessories 1 2 IDE cables, 1 Floppy cable Multi-Language quick installation guide(Improvement 1) Accessories 2 Karajan audio module is using ALC822 ¡V 8 channels HD audio. Manual is much thicker than the past. Look closely, it is Multi-Language (Improvement 2) Driver CD SATA UV cables RAID diskette SATA power cables IO panel Board outlook It's the first AMD motherboard with HD-AUDIO technology. Enlarge the PCI-e gaps. NB cooler position is no interfile to any VGA (Improvement3) Left-down corner 3 PCI for using (Improvement 4) Right-down corner The chassis pin headers with recognized colors (Improvement 5) Silicon Image 3114 with 4 SATA in RAID0.1.5 Plus chipset built-in 4 SATA, you can use 8 SATA devices Nearby CPU 4 Phases PWM (Improvement 6) 24PIN + 8PIN( not 4PIN as before),LGA775 stable power supply spec. First board uses this memory layout position. You can use system fan to spread the heat better (Improvement 7) IO part has 6 USB, 2 Gigabit LAN, 1 1394 Improvement parts are comparing with DFI original nF4 board. Of course, new DFI nF4 expert has the same advantages as well. Then, lets look at the test equipment. VGA ASUS X800 256MB VIVO DRAM GSkill 2GBHX DDR400 2 3-2-5 I will use TCCD to test again as only TCCD can reach 512MBX4 4DIMM DDR400 1T 2 2-2-5 The other TCCD magic parameter will come as well¡K Next ¡VBIOS Introduction The outlook takes me 2 hours.... Maybe it will take 1 week more to finish the detail test.... BIOS Introduction Rich BIOS items make DFI be better than others. The boot screen is modified. Smaller art, better quality with some marks. Let me feel better. (Improvement 8) Main setup menu Below the main setup menu, it shows the current voltage status. DRAM Voltage, the main course This revision, you don¡¦t need jumper to setup 3.3~4V You can adjust it from 2.4~4.03V BTW, even it is over 3.3V, no IC will be over 100 degree More voltage stepping, really great! (Improvement 9) Lowest voltage becomes 2.4V from 2.5V. CPU voltage is still separated into 2 parts. First, 0.800V~1.550V Second, ratio : maximum is 136% The highest voltage is 1.55X1.36=2.108V FSB jump to 500Mhz from 450Mhz. The original DFI nF4 almost can reach 400~450Mhz every boards. You can adjust in 1Mhz. It¡¦s very convenient. (Improvement 10) LDT is from1.0~5.0X Also have 1.5 and 2.5X for easier OC. The new item, if it is over 280Mhz, better to enable it to enhance the OC ability. Built-in Sil 3114 with RAID0,1,0+1,5. The pity is not SATAII version. DRAM menu part 1 It¡¦s plenty as usual. Over OC limitation comes from these items. As nF4 512MBX2 DDR600 1T, only DFI can reach it. The BIOS items are the key factor. If you are not looking for limitation( around 200~280Mhz), you just adjust some setting as the normal board. DRAM menu part 2 High FSB sync. Key setting DRAM Drive Strength Changing from LEVEL1~8 to LEVEL1~15(Improvement 11) BIOS test rpm/temp/voltage page You can control the temp, the chipset temp is around 50. 4000rpm, the sound is still very low. Warm up. GH reach DDR500 2 2-2-5 3.3V. Some parts are different with nF4. I may spend more time to familiar with it to break the barrier. In the past, I think ATI K8 chipset is only for normal usage. The same chipset on DFI RD design, the OC and performance is over my expectation. |

InMoment Appoints Andrew Joiner as New Chief Executive Officer
(March 08, 2017) ?InMoment builds on its leadership position in customer experience market, plans to accelerate growth
?Joiner brings extensive executive experience leading high-growth, global SaaS organizations
?Former CEO and founder John Sperry will focus on future innovation and serve as chair of InMoments board of directors
SALT LAKE CITY--(BUSINESS WIRE)--InMoment, the leading customer experience (CX) intelligence platform, announced today that its board of directors has appointed Andrew Joiner as the companys new chief executive officer. John Sperry, InMoment founder and CEO, will continue his work with the company as chairman of InMoments board of directors.
?We are excited to welcome Andrew to InMoment. Last summer we hit an inflection point with our innovation that opened a very different kind of opportunity for us, said Sperry. ?To achieve our full potential, we needed a distinguished software leader with fast-track growth experience. In Andrew, weve not only found that, but he also possesses deep expertise in the enriching and analysis of unstructured data, as well as customer experience. It is a unique combination. We have already accomplished amazing things at InMoment. With the technology and these changes, our future is unstoppable.
Joiner brings extensive expertise in building global, market-leading, high-growth SaaS organizations. Prior to joining InMoment, Joiner served as worldwide head of the HP Softwares customer experience business, an ~$250 million independent software business of Hewlett Packard. Before that, he led the high-growth business unit within HP Autonomy, an ~$1.1 billion market leader in providing unstructured data applications and solutions, focused on customer experience and marketing technology. Joiner was acquired into Autonomy via ZANTAZ in 2006, having served as founder and CEO of Singlecast Technologies, a pioneer in unstructured data classification.
Customer experience is now the undisputed battleground where brands compete. Customer analytics, especially from unstructured data sources such as voice, email, video and surveys, answer the ?why of customer behavior, and are quickly becoming the key source of actionable intelligence driving successful customer experience. According to the analyst firm IDG, by 2020, 93 percent of all data in the digital universe will be unstructured.
With the launch of InMoments next-generation platform last fall, and the public announcement of Discover today, the company has a unique ability to transform traditional insights into customer experience intelligence ? always-on, customer-sourced intelligence for the enterprise. (See InMoment Launches Discover, a First-of-Its-Kind CX Intelligence Tool.)
?Ive worked at the intersection of unstructured data and software automation for a good part of my career, and helped many organizations tap into its massive potential, said Joiner. ?Most of the IT industry is ill-equipped to understand or leverage this type of data. InMoment has been relentless in introducing innovation to solve a whole new class of challenges not yet met by traditional customer experience vendors. As a result, the company has set itself apart with the unprecedented vision of transforming customer insights into something much more valuable ? customer experience intelligence. I am excited to build on InMoments financial strength, technology and the market opportunity.
InMoment is a portfolio company of private equity firm, Sorenson Capital. According to Ron Mika, Sorenson co-founder and managing partner, and member of the InMoment board of directors, bringing Joiner to Utah is a big win on many fronts. ?The ability to attract talent of his caliber says something powerful about InMoment, as well as the local technology ecosystem. We look forward to working with Andrew to accelerate the growth of InMoment, and welcome him as a new and important voice in our states innovation leadership.
About InMoment

Simple Easter Dress + Tutorial
17 comments:
So cute. I'd love to make one for my grand daughter but have never seen fabric like that before. In your next post, could you please give me some ideas of where to shop?
I'm a very faithful reader but reluctant sewer even though I sewed for my daughter and made formals and my wedding dress, I'm REALLY out of practice. But, I have a grand daughter now so it's time to pull out my machine from retirement.What a sweet dress Ashley! I love the fabrics you chose. Every time I see one of your projects, I remember a couple months ago when you shared that you are just starting out sewing... you rock! I would never ever guess you are a new sew-er ;) Id love for you to consider linking up to my fashion party! It closes tomorrow at midnight but will opens again every Thursday.
Have a great week friend!
www.mineforthemaking.comOh yay! I see this fabric in the stores and was just thinking how easy it could be to make into a dress...but I never sew so thank you for bringing my thoughts into a tutorial! Hopefully this is something I can handle! Totally getting this fabric next time I'm at the store!
I'd love for you to link up and share: http://tutusandteaparties.blogspot.com/2012/03/pinteresting-party-week-33.html

Brownie batter milkshake
Claudia and I were on our own most of the week, while our menfolk were off at camp. It was fun spending so much time with my favorite girl, and with girl time comes chocolate. We think they just go hand in hand. Both of us were in the mood for brownies, but it was too hot to turn on the oven. Solution? Brownie batter milkshakes! Only 3 ingredients and we each had a frozen, drinkable brownie. Yum!
Recipe: Brownie Batter Milkshake
(from Cookies and Cups)
3 cups vanilla ice cream
1 1/2 cups dry brownie mix
1 cup cold milk
Mix all ingredients in a blender. Enjoy.
Broccoli salad with blueberries and honey roasted walnuts
I like finding recipes that take an everyday dish we've eaten a thousand times, and completely reinvent it. That's exactly what happened here. We've all eaten the typical broccoli salad with mayo and bacon, right? Not exactly good for you, though I do convince myself that the broccoli makes up for the rest of it.
This version of broccoli salad actually is healthy from start to finish. It tastes great too, so that's a major win-win. And, frankly, it's very pretty, which just makes me happy. :)
Recipe: Broccoli Salad with Blueberries and Honey-Roasted Walnuts
(slightly adapted from The Roasted Root)
2 crowns broccoli, chopped into florets
1/4 red onion, finely chopped
1 c. fresh blueberries
1/2 c. dried cranberries (Craisins)
2/3 c. fat-free plain Greek yogurt
zest of 1 lemon
2 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
2 Tbsp. honey
1 tsp. kosher salt
For the Honey-Toasted Walnuts:
2/3 cup raw walnut halves
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 1/2 Tbsp. honey
½ tsp. kosher salt
Prepare the honey-roasted walnuts first, by adding all the ingredients to a small pan over medium heat. Cook 5-8 minutes until mixture is bubbly and walnuts have caramelized and turned golden brown. Set aside to cool. Chop walnuts when they are cool enough to handle.
Prepare broccoli salad by stirring together yogurt, lemon zest, lemon juice, honey, and salt in a small bowl. Cut broccoli and place in a large bowl with cranberries and red onion. Pour dressing over broccoli and toss to coat. Add blueberries and walnuts and toss lightly. Serve immediately or chill until serving.
Meatball stroganoff
I'm always looking for dinners that all four of us really enjoy. Unfortunately, new recipes sometimes mean that only Jim and I are going to be happy and full, and the kids are going to be whining and eating cereal in half an hour. Luckily, this meatball stroganoff pleased everybody.
I was leery about using frozen meatballs, and my family teased me about this, but I googled reviews from people about what brand to buy. As it turns out, I'm glad I did that and was happy with the brand I used. It's Cooked Perfect and you can find it at Sam's Club or Walmart. I won't pretend they tasted like homemade, but they were still good.
I also lightened the stroganoff up quite a bit. Typically, there's lots of heavy cream and sour cream in a stroganoff, but I made some substitutions that worked perfectly and didn't skimp on the flavor at all. If my kids' reactions and second helpings were any indication, this is definitely a 2-thumbs-up meal that I'll be making again.
Recipe: Meatball Stroganoff
(adapted from Menu Musings)
16 oz. bag of frozen Italian-style meatballs (I used half of the 32 oz. Cooked Perfect bag of meatballs.)
1 Tbsp. olive oil
2 c. beef broth
salt and pepper, to taste
1 tsp. dried basil
1 tsp. dried oregano
1 c. nonfat evaporated milk (or heavy cream)
4 Tbsp. light cream cheese
1 c. nonfat plain Greek yogurt (or sour cream)
wide egg noodles
shredded Parmesan cheese, for garnish
Heat olive oil in a large pan; add meatballs and cook until browned. Pour beef broth in to deglaze the pan. Add seasonings and evaporated milk. Bring to a simmer; meanwhile, boil a pot of water and cook the noodles until they are al dente. Add the Greek yogurt and cream cheese to the meatball mixture and stir until thoroughly combined. Drain the noodles and add them to the stroganoff mixture. Sprinkle with shredded Parmesan cheese and serve.
Homemade donuts
What better way to start your day than with fresh, hot donuts? I popped my head into Claudia's room this morning and asked if she wanted to make donuts for breakfast. She was out of bed before I turned to walk down the hallway. My girl loves her donuts, so I've been wanting to try this recipe with her and Sam. They had fun, didn't argue one time, and made some delicious donuts. Wait… I need to mark that on the calendar.
Okay then.
These donuts are homemade, but might be considered a bit of a cheat. They started out as Pillsbury Grands biscuits! In short order, I was enjoying a cinnamon sugar donut with my iced coffee, and my personal chefs were bragging about how awesome they are. (They are awesome, and so were their donuts!)
Recipe: Homemade Donuts
1 refrigerated can of Pillsbury Grands biscuits
canola or peanut oil, for frying
Cinnamon-Sugar Topping:
3 Tbsp. butter, melted
1/4 c. granulated sugar
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
1 cup confectioner's sugar
2-3 Tbsp. milk
1/4 tsp. vanilla
assorted sprinkles
Pour about 3 inches of oil into a pan and heat over medium heat until it reaches 350 degrees. (I tore a little piece of biscuit dough off and dropped it in the oil to gauge when it was hot enough.) Using a biscuit cutter (or an old dosage cup from my kiddos' liquid suspension medicine!), make a hole in the center of each biscuit. When the oil is ready, gently lay the donuts into the oil. When one side becomes golden, turn with tongs until both sides are a nice golden color. Remove from oil and drain on a cooling rack.
For cinnamon-sugar donuts, dip donuts into melted butter, then roll in cinnamon-sugar mixture.
For glazed topping, combine glaze ingredients until smooth. Dip top of donut into glaze and immediately add sprinkles.
Quinoa and edamame salad
Two more days of school and we'll finally celebrate the beginning of summer vacation! Woot woot! It was a such a crazy long winter here in PA, and we had a ton of snow days to make up. But, the end is within reach and we can't wait!
Summer menus include lots of cold drinks on the deck and light dishes that can take the heat. This is a great side to go along with something from the grill, but I also like it all on its own. It's a nice blend of fresh veggies and staples from my freezer, and it's super healthy. Plus, no mayo means it can travel with you to picnics with no worries.
Here's to delicious summer eats!
Recipe: Quinoa and Edamame Salad
(adapted from Eating Well…Living Thinner)
1 c. cooked, cooled quinoa
1 cup frozen corn
12 oz. bag of frozen edamame
1/2 sweet red bell pepper, diced
1/2 small cucumber, diced
2 green onions, thinly sliced, greens only
1 1/2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
juice of half a lime
juice of half a lemon
1 Tbsp. fresh cilantro, chopped
4-5 sprigs of fresh thyme, chopped (or 1/4 tsp. dried thyme)
salt and pepper, to taste
1/4 tsp. chili powder
dash of cayenne pepper
Cook frozen edamame according to package directions. While edamame is cooking, toss frozen corn into a skillet over high heat to char it a bit. (You could also just use thawed corn kernels or leftover corn from the cob.) Combine edamame and corn in a bowl and allow to cool slightly. Add cooked quinoa, diced red pepper, diced cucumber, and green onions. Add a pinch of salt, to taste.
In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lime juice, lemon juice, cilantro, thyme, 1/4 tsp. salt, 1/8 tsp. pepper, chili powder, and cayenne. Drizzle over salad and toss to coat. Chill to let flavors meld. Serve cold or room temperature.
Mountain dew apple dumplings
Well, my family's annual "Iron Chef Throwdown" has come and gone. It is one of our more competitive traditions, to say the least, and also one of our favorites. There's generally a little bragging and sometimes some mildly veiled intimidation, because there's a lot at stake. Bragging rights, to be sure, but also that shiny trophy that gets to spend a whole year with the winner. I'm sad to admit, it's been a while since it's been to my house.
This year, our special ingredient was soda- any kind we wanted. I chose root beer and made this absolutely amazing root beer bundt cake. My mom has won the last couple times and I think it may have gone to her head a little, because she took the easy route and made root beer floats. (Don't judge. She's been under a lot of pressure.) My youngest sister, Dani, baked these Mountain Dew apple dumplings, and ended up winning our competition.
I was more than a little surprised that her recipe could turn into such a golden dish of dumplings, but it certainly did. Everyone loved them and it was one of the toughest votes we've ever had. I came in 2nd, but my cake got some pretty rave reviews too. ;) Congrats, Dani!
Recipe: Mountain Dew Apple Dumplings
(my sister's winning Throwdown recipe, source unknown)
2 8-count cans crescent rolls
3-4 Granny Smith apples
1 c. sugar
1/2 c. unsalted butter
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 12-oz. can Mountain Dew soda
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and spray a 9×13″ baking pan with cooking spray. Peel and slice apples into 16 pieces. Roll each apple slice in 1 section of crescent roll. Place rolled slices in pan in two rows, placing any extras along the side. Melt butter and add sugar and cinnamon. Pour over apples. Pour entire can of Mountain Dew all over the apples. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.

Differences in blood pressure between arms
BMJ 2012; 344 doi: https://doi.org/10.1136/bmj.e2033 (Published 20 March 2012) Cite this as: BMJ 2012;344:e2033- Dae Hyun Kim, instructor in medicine

A difference in blood pressure readings between arms can be seen in congenital heart disease, aortic dissection, peripheral vascular disease, and unilateral neuromuscular abnormalities. In the absence of these conditions, any discrepancy is small (mean difference: 5 mm Hg and 4 mm Hg for systolic and diastolic blood pressure, respectively).1 About 20% of patients in primary care or secondary care have a between arm blood pressure difference of 10 mm Hg or more and 4% have a difference of 20 mm Hg or more.2 Although such a difference in blood pressure is thought to be a marker of atherosclerosis,3 its clinical significance is not fully understood. In a linked research study (doi:10.1136/bmj.e1327),4 and in a recent meta-analysis,5 Clark and colleagues provide additional evidence on the diagnostic and prognostic relevance of this phenomenon.
In their meta-analysis of cross sectional studies,5 Clark and colleagues reported that a between arm blood pressure difference of 15 mm Hg or more was associated with peripheral vascular disease (sensitivity 15% and specificity 96%) and with cerebrovascular disease (sensitivity 8% and specificity 93%), but not with coronary artery disease. A difference of 10 mm …

While this is still a convenient method for the experienced Linux user, many people have found that the current crop of X-based tools is far better. X11 offers an extensive range of other user-friendly application programs, too. However, if you are not physically using your Linux box locally, then these tools seem out of reach. Access via a shell is then seen as the way to go--but this need not be the case. A possibility the Web-based interfaces such as that provided by webmin but there is another older, more mature and sophisticated method. |

Mom got drunk in the bar one night.
Fbailey story number 669
The Night Mom Got Drunk
For most of my life Mom and Dad had taken me to dinner at their favorite bar, Porky's. No one ever cared that I was just a kid at the time. Then as with most people I got older as time went on. Also with most people Mom and Dad had problems and separated.
The whole thing was over my father dating a girl that I went to school with. I was a freshman and she was a junior. I was thirteen and she was sixteen. Peggy was also fat with big boobs, big belly, and big butt. She did however have a pretty face. She was a virgin when Dad first fucked her.
Anyway Mom and I continued to go to Porky's to eat and drink. I got Pepsi and Mom got her usual, which consisted of a shot of peppermint schnapps before our meal, a glass or two of red wine with our meal, and a shot of tequila with a tall beer afterwards. When Dad was with us Mom would have one or two more drinks depending on her mood and Dad's advances. On more than one occasion Mom would get up on the bar and start dancing. Her skirts were always short enough to look up and see her panties. Her top would come off and everyone would get to see her firm breasts in her sexy bras. Before anything else could happen Dad would drag her down, toss her over his shoulder and do the Fireman's Carry to the car.
After he got her home he would do all sorts of things to her. He would even let me watch. He would give her a shot of whiskey and tell her to dance for us. However, he wouldn't stop her from undressing all the way. Mom looked fantastic for being thirty-two years old. Her breasts were firm and round with no sign of sag. Her nipples were stiff and her areolas were dark. She shaved her pussy but always left a little tuff of hair on her love mound. Sometimes it was a heart shape, a triangle pointing at her slit, or just a landing strip. Her waist was slim and her ass was perfect.
That is usually when Dad dragged her into the bedroom and closed the door, keeping me from watching. On a few occasions though, he would have her masturbate for us.
Mom would lay down on the rug, open her legs wide, and reach both hands down to her pussy. One hand would hold her pussy lips open and the other hand would poke around in her hole to get her fingers wet before attacking her clit. I do mean attack. She would lift her ass off the floor, scream out, and hump the air as she orgasmed over and over again.
Dad always stopped it there, and took Mom behind closed doors.
Back to my story:
Mom and I were in Porky's eating, she was half way into her second glass of wine when Dad came in with Peggy on his arm.
World War Three:
Mom shouted out across the whole room. No one was going to miss the scene that she was going to cause.
Mom said, "Stan, you bastard. You have the nerve to bring that fucking fat whore in here."
Dad motioned for Peggy to ignore her.
Mom walked over to the bar, drank some shots that the bartender was pouring, and then climbed up on the bar. There were many shouts of encouragement. They had seen Mom do that many times before and they sure wanted to see it again.
Mom shouted, "Hey bitch, I dare you to come up here and show everyone your stuff. Show them what my husband finds irresistible."
Peggy started to, but Dad grabbed her.
Mom removed her blouse and tossed it to me. Mom removed her skirt and tossed that to me too. Then standing up there in her high heels, bra, and panties Mom asked, "Would you guys want her or me in your bed?"
Everyone shouted, "You. You, You."
Mom once again said, "Come on up here you fat bitch. Show everyone what you've got."
Mom looked out over the crowd and said, "I'm thirty-two, Peggy is sixteen, and I'm still twice the woman she is."
Peggy stood up and slipped out of Dad's grasp. She needed help getting up on top of the bar and then she needed more help getting her blue jeans off. She had gained enough weight to make them fit really tight. I wondered how she had gotten into them in the first place. Mom was wearing pretty yellow thong panties with a matching bra. Peggy had on big girl panties that were white and cotton. There was a stain in the crotch and the elastic was showing some wear. When she lifted her sweater up over her head everyone cheered. They were just being polite. Peggy had two chins, three belly rolls, and bulging thighs. Her bra was old and worn too. She looked disgusting to me. Mom looked a hundred times better than Peggy did. Peggy's big fat tits were pouring over the top of her too small and too tight bra. Dad really needed to splurge on some new underwear for her.
The bartender told Dad, "Get that fucking minor off my bar and out of my establishment. Now! And don't bring her back in here. I could loose my license."
Then he turned to me and said, "Your mother can dance on my bar anytime she wants too."
He held up a shot glass, Mom drank it, and then she tossed me her bra. Every guy in the place went nuts. Even the women cheered her on.
Another shot had been handed to her and I was holding her panties. After that Mom gyrated up and down the full length of the bar. All the guys crowded into those lucky guys that were seating on the stools. Mom leaned over as she went down the bar, letting them all feel of her tits and pussy. Then she came back up the bar offering them her sweet ass. She got a few slaps on her butt but mostly she got kisses. I saw one guy lick her slit from behind. His buddies called him lucky.
On the last trip to my end of the bar, Mom got down and said, "Take me home stud and put me to bed."
A woman helped me get Mom into her skirt and blouse, telling me to carry her underwear. She said it would be a waste of time and effort to put them on her and then have me take them off at home.
On the way out a guy said, "I'll give you fifty bucks for her panties."
I was just about to say "Okay" when another guy said, "I'll give you a hundred." He thrust the money in my hand and pulled Mom's panties out of my fingers. The first guy shoved his money into my hand and took Mom's bra. Hey, I just made a hundred and fifty dollars selling her used underwear.
One of the guys helped me get Mom into the car and told me to drive carefully…that I didn't need to get pulled over. The whole time he helped Mom into the car he held onto one of her breasts tightly and his other hand was finger fucking her wet pussy. Hell, I didn't care what he did to her, after all she was drunk, I had money, and he did get her into the car.
At home I had a hard time getting her into the house, but eventually I did it. I couldn't get her up the stairs to her bedroom so I lowered her down to the floor. I removed her blouse and her miniskirt leaving her there naked.
I hollered in her ear, "Masturbate for me."
In her sedated state Mom reached down, opened her pussy, and started rubbing her clit. Then she dozed off again.
I looked at her. She was a very beautiful naked woman. She was naked and I was the only one with her. So I reached out and felt of her breasts like the guys in the bar. I reached down and played with her pussy like the guys in the bar. But then it was me and just me that stuck his cock into her.
Mom was not awake to enjoy it so I enjoyed it for both of us. In fact I enjoyed it three times before I cleaned her up and covered her with a blanket.
In the morning Mom asked me who had undressed her. I laughed and said, "You did in Porky's up on the bar last night. Don't you remember? You got fat Peggy to take off her sweater and blue jeans. Everyone got to see her extra rolls and they all agreed that you were a lot hotter than she was."
Mom asked, "So you brought me home naked?"
I laughed and said, "Look Mom, you were naked. A woman helped me get you into your blouse and miniskirt. Two guys bought your bra and panties off me and another guy felt you up as he helped me get you into the car. From there I just barely got you in the house."
Mom looked at me and said, "Then you undressed me."
I replied, "Sure! I've seen you naked lots of times."
Mom then asked, "Did you fuck me?"
I knew that she knew. I didn't know how she knew but she did. So I said, "Yes! Three times and I really enjoyed it."
Mom laughed and said, "Well if your father can fuck a minor girl then I guess I can let a minor boy fuck me. Want to do it again before I get cleaned up or do you want to be the first one to get my pussy dirty again?"
I smiled and said, "Both!"
Mom smiled and said, "You're just like your father. If you're going to fuck me you should start sleeping in my bed."
I asked, "Am I filling Dad's shoes?"
Mom laughed and said, "No honey, you are your own man. Besides you got an experienced woman, your father got a fat little slut that doesn't know a fucking thing…and she'll never learn as long as your father is fucking her."
I slipped into Mom's pussy and came almost immediately. Mom kissed me, thanked me, and then took me into the shower with her. She let me wash her entire body and she washed mine. We dried off, got on the bed, and we made love that time. I had relieved the tension earlier so I was very relaxed. Mom gave me my first lesson on pleasing her and making my own pleasure better too. Mom was a great teacher. She made me do it over and over until I got it right. She gave me homework, she gave tests, and then five years later she gave me my diploma.
With Mom's help I got to fuck several of her friends and acquaintances. I fucked several girls in my class and I even got to fuck a few of my relatives. Mom would join us occasionally.
Needless to say Dad was long gone. Peggy got pregnant by someone else and dropped out of school without graduating. Me? I got to sleep with Mom every night and I went to the local community college.
At college I found a young professor that was fantastic…in bed…with just me…or with Mom too in a threesome. I married her!

FBI Trainer Says Forget 'Irrelevant' al-Qaida, Target Islam
The FBI has publicly declared that its counterterrorism training seminars linking "mainstream" Muslims to terrorists was a "one time only" affair that began and ended in April 2011. But two months later, the Bureau employee who delivered those controversial briefings gave a similar lecture to a gathering of dozens of law enforcement officials at an FBI-sponsored public-private partnership in New York City.
And during that June presentation, the FBI's William Gawthrop told his audience that the fight against al-Qaida is a "waste," compared to the threat presented by the ideology of Islam itself.
"At the operational level, you have groups such as Hamas, Hezbollah, al-Qaida. Like teeth in a shark, it is irrelevant if you take one group out," Gawthrop said during his lecture to the New York Metro Infragard at the World Financial Center in downtown Manhattan.
Since Danger Room published the contents of Gawthrop's April lecture, top Senators and representatives from Arab- and Muslim-American groups have blasted the FBI for the training documents, which compare Mohammed to a "cult leader."
This June 8 lecture is controversial in a different way. In Gawthrop's worldview, the struggle against al-Qaida is really just an afterthought in a broader war. The group that knocked down the World Trade Center and rammed a jet into the Pentagon is a mere distraction. These are the professional assessments of a representative from the nation's top domestic counterterrorism agency — a man considered so expert in understanding militant strategy that the FBI had him training agents on the subject.
"We waste a lot of analytic effort talking about the type of weapon, the timing, the tactics. All of that is irrelevant … if you have an Islamic motivation for actions," Gawthrop said. Even taking down hostile states like Iran is futile, since "there are still internal forces that will seek to exert Islamic rule again."
The best strategy for undermining militants, Gawthrop suggested, is to go after Islam itself. To undermine the validity of key Islamic scriptures and key Muslim leaders.
"If you remember Star Wars, that ventilation shaft that goes down to into the depths of the Death Star, they shot a torpedo down there. That's a critical vulnerability," Gawthrop told his audience. Then he waved a laser pointer at his projected PowerPoint slide, calling attention to the words "Holy Texts" and "Clerics."
"We should be looking at, should be aiming at, these," Gawthrop said.

Danish design agency SPACE have teamed up with Georg Jensen, designing a curvaceous collection of trays and decorative bowls for the Scandinavian luxury brand.
Called Liquid, the series comprises a tray and three sizes of bowl: small, medium and large. Prices range from £40 to £150. SPACE commented
"Our ambition has been to create a series of centerpieces that seek their origin in the motifs of nature; the soft flow of water with its shifting and gentle reflections, the alluring irregularities of trees and branches, and the dreamy curvatures of flowers".

Lot 144: DESIGNER UNKNOWN. AIRPLANE RIDES / INMAN BROS. FLYING CIRCUS. Circa 1929. 37x24 inches, 96x63 cm.
by Swann Auction Galleries
27 October 2016
New York, NY, USA
Live Auction
DESIGNER UNKNOWN AIRPLANE RIDES / INMAN BROS. FLYING CIRCUS. Circa 1929.
37 3/4x24 3/4 inches, 96x63 cm.
Condition A: minor creases and slight darkening at edges; minor tape residue in right margin. Mounted to Chartex. Hand-signed by William R. Inman.
The Inman Brothers' flying circus operated a 20 passenger Boeing 80-A and a smaller Ford tri-motor. At this time, these models were being used by airline companies on their airmail and passenger routes, but the Inman Brothers offered novelty flights to the American public for just 50 cents. "They were responsible for introducing hundreds of thousands of people to the safety and comfort [and novelty] of airline travel" (Airline Artistry p. 3). Their show also delighted visitors with a parachute jump. "It is interesting to note that they called their 80-A a 'Boeing Clipper.' The Clipper trademark was registered by Pan American Airways in 1931 for their aircraft; the huge B-314 flying boats were the planes most remembered as Boeing Clippers. [Inman] had to sue PAA to retain the rights to the Clipper name" (ibid). Airline Artistry p. 3, Resnick 12.

UCLA DE Kylie Fitts to transfer
Defensive end Kylie Fitts, who was expected to be a key backup in the Bruins' defensive rotation, will transfer from UCLA, Mora announced on Monday.
Fitts enrolled early last season, after spurning his initial USC commitment to join UCLA. The one-time four-star recruit dealt with injuries as a freshman and saw little playing time, but was expected to contribute as a sophomore. Without him in the picture, UCLA will likely turn to freshman Matt Dickerson or junior Eli Ankou to rotate in at one of the defensive end spots.
"It does affect our depth," Mora said, "but you know me, I don't look back very often. I think Matt Dickerson is going to do a heck of a job for us. I'm excited about Eli Ankou. I think Jacob (Tuioti-Mariner) is a guy who can bend. We'll see."

Demonstrating the global acceptance, premium sound and maximum output capabilities of JBL Professional VERTEC® line arrays, Buenos Aires Live Show (B.A.L.S.) deployed a large VERTEC system for Rod Stewart's recent concert at Velez Sarsfield Stadium in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The show was part of Rod Stewart's current world tour supporting his latest release, "Still The Same…Great Rock Classics of our Time."
The April 11th concert at Velez Sarsfield Stadium drew a sell-out crowd of 40,000 people. To meet Stewart's concert rider specifications, B.A.L.S. used a total of 52 VERTEC line array enclosures. The main left/right arrays featured 14 VT4889-1 full-size line array elements per side, with 12 VT4889-1 elements per side for out fill arrays. For additional low-frequency output, B.A.L.S. used both stacked and flown subwoofers—a total of 32 enclosures—to complement the full-range VERTEC system. JBL's new VERTEC V4 DSP presets were used.
JBL's new VT4889-1 full-size line array loudspeaker offers all of the performance and high-output advantages of the original VT4889, in a more affordable enclosure constructed from JBL's exclusive PlyMax® engineered-wood material. It is acoustically and mechanically compatible with JBL's VT4889 full-size line array loudspeaker.
"The system provided very clear sound, with a good, punchy presence," noted Federico Sainz, Chief Engineer for B.A.L.S. "Both of Rod Stewart's engineers, the FOH mixer and the system engineer, were very satisfied. I think the VERTEC rig gave us a great performance. We had good intelligibility all the way to the very last rows of the stadium seating [more than 100 meters from the stage]. We did have signal-delayed arrays set up in the rear as requested by the touring production, but those ended up being used at only 50 percent of the anticipated level."
David Scheirman, Vice President, Tour Sound for JBL Professional, notes that B.A.L.S. has proven its ability to serve the most high-profile and demanding international touring acts. "Stadium rock shows can place great demands on a concert sound team, and Buenos Aires Live Show has established both the audio system inventory and the technical processes and practices needed to succeed in this environment."
