Cameron McMillan looks at the key talking points for today's Super Bowl matchup between the Baltimore Ravens and the San Francisco 49ers.
Australia may have the race that stops a nation but that only lasts a matter of minutes. A large chunk of America, and the world, will be on alert for around four hours when New Orleans plays the host to Super Bowl XLVII as the National Football Conference champions the 49ers take on the American Football Conference champions the Baltimore Ravens.
The teams
The 49ers, the name originates from the California gold rush of 1849, were the dominate team in the 1980s and early 90s when they won all of their five Super Bowl titles with legendary quarterback Joe Montana claiming four of them. But there hasn't been much to celebrate since Steve Young led them to their last title in 1994. It's just their second trip to playoffs since 2002, however victory will tie San Fran with the Pittsburgh Steelers as the most successful franchise.
The Ravens' brought NFL back to Baltimore in 1996 after the city's former franchise the Colts upped and left for Indianapolis one night in 1984. After taking over the Cleveland Browns franchise, it took only four years for the Ravens to win their first and only Super Bowl with a convincing win over the New York Giants. Their name comes from the Edgar Allan Poe poem 'the Raven'.
Neither side have ever lost a Super Bowl.
On one side you have Ravens QB Joe Flacco who since being drafted in
2008 has been consistently effective leading them to five straight playoffs but despite an impressive résumé is rarely mentioned among the NFL's elite quarterbacks. He was the first quarterback to win a playoff game in each of his first three seasons, which he stretched to five this year. Not a flashy quarterback, but equipped with one of the strongest arms in the league, he often plays second fiddle to the Ravens staunch defense which often gets the credit for the team's success.
While Flacco is often forgotten, it's hard not to miss Colin Kaepernick - despite the fact he's two inches shorter.
With tattoos all the way up his arms and an explosive running game, the 49ers rookie has had a standout season since taking over from regular starter Alex Smith in week 11. He led the side into the playoffs before orchestrating victories over the Packers and Falcons to reach today's big game. Under the pistol offence scheme, Kaepernick has flourished with the ball under his arms having scoring five rushing touchdowns to go with his 10 passing TDs. He also created a new term 'Kaepernicking'.
Brotherly battle
It will be a tough match to watch for Jack and Jackie Harbaugh as their two sons go up against each other in the biggest games of their lives. Jim Harbaugh (49ers) and John (Ravens) will become the first brothers to coach against each other in Super Bowl history, in what is being dubbed the HarBowl. The two have played against each other before when John, the elder brother, came out on top when the Ravens beat the 49ers 16-6 in 2011.
Their parents have said they will visit the losing coach first.
Defence v defence
The Ravens have for a long time been known for their hard-hitting defence thanks largely to linebacker Ray Lewis who has been with the franchise since the Ravens' inaugural season. He was MVP in their last Super Bowl win and is looking for a Hollywood ending to his career with this game being his last after 17 seasons. Along with the likes of Terrell Suggs, Bernard Pollard and Haloti Ngata they make up a formidable defensive unit who should give the young 49ers quarterback plenty of trouble (and pain).
But San Francisco are equally as adept in defence. They gave up the second least points in the NFL all season and have a top five defence against both passing and rushing. With linebacker Patrick Willis leading the way, the 49ers kept the Atlanta Falcons scoreless in the NFC Championship game. Don't expect the points the flow in today's encounter.
All going to script
Lewis is not the only one seeking a Hollywood ending, although you could argue teammate Michael Oher has already had his. The Oscar winning movie the Blind Side was based on the Ravens offensive linesman's journey of facing life on the street as a child to playing college football after he was adopted by a wealthy white family from Memphis. Surely it won't be long before Blind Side Part II is in the works if the Ravens win today.
There's a game on?
For those who don't care about the game but watch for the pomp and
spectacle: Alicia Keys will sing the anthem, Beyonce will play the halftime show, companies will air 30 second ads which they've paid $4 million for and Americans will consume an estimated 50 million cases of beer.
I picked the Ravens to win it all in my season preview and I'm not changing now.
24-14 Ravens.

Aug. 4, 2013
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. ---- Official reporting day is Monday for the UAB football team as head coach Garrick McGee opens his 2013 fall camp -- his second with the Blazers -- with the first practice Tuesday afternoon on the campus practice fields.
The Blazers will practice for nearly three weeks before moving into their game-week preparations for the 2013 season opener at Troy on Aug. 31 (6:30 p.m. CT).
UAB returns eight starters on offense, eight on defense and both specialists from the 2012 squad.
The Blazer offense is expected to again be an explosive unit this fall. A pair of experienced quarterbacks -- sophomore Austin Brown and senior Jonathan Perry -- combined for 3,706 passing yards and 21 touchdown passes last season and return for 2013.
In addition, UAB will feature an outstanding running game, headlined by first-team All-Conference USA junior Darrin Reaves. Reaves, listed on the Doak Walker Award Watch List last month, rushed for 1,037 yards and 13 touchdowns in 2012. Senior Jackie Williams leads a receiving corps after his 52-catch/799-yards effort last year.
Defensively, the Blazers have 28 returning letterwinners but will face a void created by the departure of linebacker Marvin Burdette, the top tackler in the country last season (157 tackles). Senior safety Calvin Jones is the leading returnee among tacklers with 71 last season.
Kicker Ty Long and punter Hunter Mullins, both juniors, are among the best at their positions in the collegiate ranks.
UAB will play its 2013 home opener on Saturday, Sept. 21 when Northwestern (La.) State visits Legion Field for a 2:00 p.m. CT kickoff.
Ticket information for 2013 home games can be found on www.uabsports.com or by calling the UAB ticket office at 205-975-8221.

Not sure the penalties will hamper fantasy numbers too much, but I am concerned about the rule fundamentally changing some guy's running style or their aggressiveness. One guy I can think of is Mikel Leshoure, I remember being concerned for the guys health. Often finishes his runs by completely ducking his head. Bad enough for neck injury danger, but I wonder how the rule will influence his and possibly other's play.
Any fantasy impact for Stephen Jackson or Lynch? Both of them are shifty enough in my opinion that they'll avoid much impact IMO, but still wonder. Any other backs at risk? Trent Richardson and ADP lower the boom sometimes as well.

Spotted near Oxford Valley Mall:
-------------young guy in a new yellow S4
-------------young girl in a white evo
-------------older guy in a green S8
So I needed to go to Staples to get some stuff for a job I'm applying for. I go in, get what I need, and when I'm coming out to my car i hear an exhaust. I look over and see that its a new yellow S4. I dont know what they are supposed to sound like from the factory, but this one sounded mean so I'd have to assume it had exhaust work.
I wouldnt go as far to say that I have ADD, but I do get easily distracted when I should be doing important stuff. So of course I tried to track him down out of the lot even though I should have been going home to work on this application.
I turned the wrong way out of the lot but he was at least a half mile up and I wasnt quite sure where he had gone. But then all of a sudden I saw him coming the other way and he passed me! I pulled a U and followed him, only behind him by a few cars. He turned into the mall and I got stuck behind those cars at a light so he got away from me again. I figured I'd cruise around and find him, but again the quasi-ADD struck when I saw a white Evo in front of me. I pulled up next to it at the light only to see that a girl was driving it! When she looked over I threw her a big thumbs up and a smile, and I got a big smile and a laugh back . Wonder how much attention she gets in that thing...?
So we drove together for a mile or so and then out of the mall area. A focking minivan cut her off bigtime but she saw it coming and was able to avoid him. When we pulled up to the next light she stared him down hardcore and she headed straight, while myself and the minivan turned left. I then proceeded to stare him down some more, and if his window was open I really woulda let him have it... messing with my girl and all.
So, I thought my fun was over and I was now headed home. But, about two lights down I pulled up next to an older gentleman in an S8. wowza...
thats about it, my blood is pumping and that was a fantastic ride home from Staples.
The End.
I will now get to work on this application in hopes that I can have it in the mail before the P.O. closes today.

General Question
How can I figure out what point is exactly halfway around the world from another point?
Asked by Jeruba (45201) August 9th, 2011
If I don't have a physical, spherical globe with a world map on it, how can I tell what place is halfway around the world?
Is there a website where I can put in a location or coordinates and compute the opposite point on the globe?
I tried using Google to answer this, but I must not have come up with the right search terms.

I love this product. I use it as a toner and also to refresh my face throughout the day. I enjoy that it's all natural and has no alcohol so, it doesn't dry my skin out. The scent is a lovely, fresh, clean, non over powering smell. Great addition to any makeup/travel bag.5

International Long Distance
With a prepaid TracFone you can direct dial your international calls to 60 different countries for the same price as all the other calls you make. No additional charges for international long distance and no connection fees, you just pay the same for the minutes you would use anyway. You don't need to activate the International Long Distance service, and you know exactly how many minutes you have because it's conveniently displayed on your screen. Make international calls conveniently from your own cell phone.

I tried calling Italy relatives today and twice after the ringing tone was told no service available to that destination. However, after about 5 minutes I received a call back from the number I dialed in Italy and they told me their phone rang and listed my cell phone no. so that they were able to call me back. Why was I denied service to Italy????????????

i think tracfone is misleading to the public. i have been told that it would work to call the philippines.i am from the philippines and i explained that to the salesmen and he told me i could call the philippines.. well that was a complete lie or he just did not know any better hindi ko po alam...at any rate i will be sure to let everyone know that buyer beware because your service is not any good in the philippines.it sure is very odd how tracfone has offices in the philippines but you cant call there on a tracfone so so odd. :( well i am very glad that my trusty globe telecom roaming works or i would not be able to call home because i spent a good amount of money on tracfone and it was a complete waste because it does me no good at all :(

It sounds to me like what everyone REALLY wants is to be able to TAKE their Tracfone with them when they travel and be able to use it-- Tracfone people take notice- even if there was a small charge I would have LOVED to have been able to use my phone when we were in Jamaica- It was confusing and expensive to buy an international calling card and then try to find a phone to use to use the card.

I found it interesting that Christine thought it necessary to steal £1,000 of goods a week so as not to "deprive" her children (The Dark Side Of Shopping, 13 June). I wonder what her interpretation of deprivation is. Most law-abiding parents manage to raise children on a fraction of this.

What happens to the children of the one in three women who are sent to jail for shoplifting? In my experience, they experience emotional/physical abandonment, huge psychological distress and often loss of self-worth/home/friends/school. Many end up being cared for long term by the state. Yes, stealing is wrong, but the greater crime, I believe, is committed by judges who see imprisonment, for caregivers, as the answer to theft.

Debbie Bruell: Baxter has the experience needed
October 30, 2012
To the editor:To the editor:
To the editor:
Jo Ann Baxter has the experience and ideas we need for a healthy future in Colorado.
Baxter has extensive experience in education: 30 + years as a teacher, 8 years on the Moffat County School Board and a PhD in Educational leadership.
She raises critical questions about our school system, such as whether standardized test scores should be the ultimate measure of our children's progress.
In contrast, her opponent Bob Rankin has zero experience in public education. He wants to move Colorado to a voucher system, trusting the education of our children to "free market" competition.
Didn't the recent collapse of Wall Street teach us that even our economy cannot be left to an unregulated free market system?
Regarding the economy, Rankin is putting all his eggs in one basket: the oil & gas industry. One of his highest priorities is to "push back" against federal regulations of the gas & oil industry.
In contrast, Baxter recognizes that enticing businesses to locate (and remain) in Colorado requires that we maintain a high level of livability in our communities, and that we must balance the various economic drivers in our state.
Baxter has been elected twice to public office and was appointed to the State Council on Educator Effectiveness. She has extensive experience in collaboration and consensus-building.
Rankin has never been elected to public office and has no legislative experience.
The one area in which Rankin has Baxter beat is in campaign finances — collecting over three times the amount of campaign funds as Baxter, including contributions from over 10 times as many PACS as Baxter.
Do we want this election to be determined by whichever candidate has the most money and receives funds from the most number of PACs?
Please review these candidates' experiences and positions, and vote for Jo Ann Baxter for House District 57.

Tiny spherules pepper a sandy surface in this 3-centimeter (1.2-inch) square view of the Martian surface. The largest one is broken in half and shows little internal texture—typical of these "blueberries" on the Meridiani Plains. Opportunity took this image while the target was shadowed by the rover's instrument arm. NASA/JPL-Caltech/Cornell/USGS/Cathy Weitz
Ralph Bagnold, an early pioneer of dune studies, remarked that—compared to the nearly static chaos that seems to characterize slowly crumbling, weathering landscapes—sand dunes can "move inexorably, in regular formation, over the surface of the country, growing, retaining their shape, even breeding, in a manner which by its grotesque imitation of life, is vaguely disturbing to an imaginative mind." Perhaps more so, if we're on Mars? NASA/JPL-Caltech/Cornell University
This was one of the first images of the sulfate-rich outcrops on the Meridiani Plains of Mars to show a broken spherule, or "blueberry" (below center). The spherules do not deflect the crosswise layers of finer sediments, indicating that the spherules and sediments were not deposited at the same time. The image shows a 3-centimeter (1.2-inch) square section of the rock Robert E in Eagle Crater. NASA/JPL-Caltech/Cornell/USGS
These loose, BB-sized, hematite-rich spherules are embedded in this Martian rock like blueberries in a muffin and released over time by erosion. The Mars Rover Opportunity found this cluster of them at its Eagle Crater landing site and analyzed their composition with its spectrometers. Hypotheses about their formation have contributed to the story of water on Mars. NASA/JPL-Caltech/Cornell University
The El Dorado Dune Field dominates this 160-degree view. The Mars Rover Spirit spent several days exploring this area and acquiring images and data on the physical characteristics of this large basaltic sand sheet, before moving downhill toward Home Plate. NASA/JPL-Caltech/Cornell University
The piece of metal with the American flag on it is made of aluminum recovered from the site of the World Trade Center towers in New York City. It serves as a cable guard for Spirit's rock abrasion tool as well as a memorial to the victims of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. Opportunity has an identical piece. NASA/JPL-Caltech/Cornell University
Spirit obtained this view of the area called Home Plate while parked atop Husband Hill. The colors emphasize differences in rock weathering. A large dust devil appears as the V-shaped discoloration of sky at the top right. NASA/JPL-Caltech/Cornell University
The Mars Rover Spirit took this sublime view of a sunset over the rim of Gusev Crater, about 80 kilometers (50 miles) away. Taken from Husband Hill, it looks much like a sunset on Earth—a reminder that other worlds can seem eerily familiar. Sunset and twilight images help scientists to determine how high into the atmosphere the Martian dust extends and to look for dust or ice clouds. NASA/JPL-Caltech/Texas A&M/Cornell
Full-scale model of the Mars Exploration Rover. The twin Mars Exploration Rovers Spirit and Opportunity were launched toward Mars in the summer of 2003. They arrived months later in spectacular fashion, bouncing down safely on the surface after a harrowing six-minute descent through the thin atmosphere. Spirit arrived on January 3, 2004, and Opportunity on January 24, 2004. Photo by Eric Long, Smithsonian Institution
For two twin robots, a decade of exploration on Mars has brought incredible discoveries and scientific insight. But the Spirit and Opportunity rovers have also spent 10 years capturing the desolate beauty and splendor of the Red Planet.
A new exhibit at the Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum opening Jan. 9 highlights some of the best images from Spirit and Opportunity. The photos, chosen by the mission's scientists and engineers, depict some of the most amazing and interesting features on Mars, including tiny "blueberry" rocks, rolling sand dunes, and psychedelic mineralogy. The exhibit will also feature a full-scale model of one of the rovers sitting in the center of a Martian landscape panorama covering two walls, inviting visitors to feel like they're standing on Mars.
Just a little over 10 years ago, the first of NASA's Mars Exploration Rovers, Spirit, bounced down to the Martian surface. Its companion probe landed on the other side of the planet a few weeks later and together they began rolling and exploring. The rovers changed our understanding of the Red Planet, finding evidence that massive amounts of water once flowed on Mars. Initially designed to last three months, both probes chugged along for many years, with Spirit ending operations in 2010 while Opportunity is still beaming back amazing insights.
NASA has since achieved the momentous landing of Spirit and Opportunity's much larger, younger sibling, Curiosity, which has been roving on the Red Planet for more than a year. Curiosity has sent back its own artistic photos of Mars while expanding scientists' understanding of the planet's watery history and potential for once having life.
The exhibit is open until Sept. 14, 2014.

The Arsenal charity team took on Stacey's Spurs All Stars on Sunday, July 27 in a match to raise funds for young Tottenham fan Stacey Mowle.
Eight-year-old Stacey is fighting Neuroblastoma cancer, and in need of pioneering treatment in the United States. The Stacey Mowle Appeal hopes to raise £500,000 for her care.
Played at Dartford FC, the match saw former Gunners Lee Harper, David Hillier and Brian Sparrow feature alongside celebrities Tommy Walsh, Ralf Little and others.
Arsenal ran out 11-3 winners, with much-needed funds raised for Stacey's appeal. Stacey took to the pitch to score a penalty against the Gunners.

Wunderschöne Finca, in toller Lage mit Blick aufs Meer. Gut geeignet als Ausgangspunkt zur Erkundung Andalusiens.
Sehr nette Gastgeber.
Jederzeit wieder.
Erstmal war es ein anderer Urlaub als Hotel oder in einer Stadt .Abseits von Trubel und sehr ruhig gelegen .Daher ,ohne Mietwagen , No Go.Die Appartements sind sehr sauber und das Haus strahlt wegen seiner Bauweise einen besonderen Flair aus . Spanisches Landleben, ruhig und einfach aber auch beschwerlich mit der Versorgung im ca.4 KM entfernten Hauptort.Beanstandungen wurden umgehends von den Verwaltern beseitigt und wir fühlten uns durch Jose und Carmen persöhnlich bestens betreut.Fazit ,Gute einfache und ruhige Unterkunft in zentraler traumhafter Lage zu den Touristenorten an der Costa Tropical und dem Andalusischen Hinterland.

It was great, our host and hostess were very kind and helpfull. The appartement was clean and well equiped. The location fine and the swimming pool very nice with a wonderful view over the sea!
We would very much like to come back, maybe with our whole family!
xxx Conny and Helma from the Netherlands
In an email correspondence with the host I asked whether it is possible our arrival at 1 am (night) for 7 days. The host replied - yes you can fix. Wimdu has levied a charge on my credit card for 7 days.
Why Wimdu gets the money in advance two months before your arrival?
That's unheard of!
Upon arrival in the middle of the night it turned out that our hut was not ready.
The host said that this night is extra and that can make us sleep in another apartment at an additional cost of 50 E. If it does not fit us, we can go and look for the hotel !!! (after traveling in the middle of the night !!!)
We agreed in thinking that the situation will become clear.
The next morning we moved to our cottage. The accommodation was consistent with the description on the website and from our expectations.
Only after a few days we met with the owner who brought wine ...
He apologized for the oversight of our arrival date. Unfortunately, not feeling up for the return of money for one night. He said that this is my problem and Wimdu.
We stayed 7 nights and we paid for 8 nights.
The whole behavior of the host was arrogant and unfair.
I do not recommend.
We have had a fantastic stay in Finca Buenavista, appartement Cadiz. A large, clean en well equipped appartement. Ideal for those who prefer a calm holiday far away from the touristic crowd and who want to enjoy the Spanish culture. The view on the Andalusian hills and ocean is fabulous. A car is necessary because supermarket and interesting places to visit aren't close.
José Louis and Carmen are very friendly, welcoming and helpfull! Thanks for everything!
It is a really nice private little house with private pool. If you are looking for some quietness, and still want to be close to the beach this is the place for you. You definitely need a car, since the house is a 7 minute drive to the coast (downhill!! so you cannot walk uphill easily). Also, you need not to be afraid of heights and narrow roads. ;-)
Recommended for a romantic getaway.
Buena Vista is a very nice place to stay. Super appartment and surroundings and the people are very kind and helpfull. It is quiet and there is a lot of space. We had a very good holiday there. Remember to rent a car. It it very far out :)
The apartment and the surrounding was really nice. The out view from the place was amazing. Clean and roomy apartment, options for BBQ, and a swimming pool we used a lot. We really enjoyed to be there, wish to go again. Thanks José Luis & Carmen! As the accommodation is not in a frequent place it is quite, but on the other side a rent or own car is highly recommended!
A beautiful spot near Malaga. Nice host, clean appartement. Quiet place. You can choose to clean the place yourself of pay the cleaning (60 euro's).
Nico swimming pool too.

Rutland With several in-state competitors aggressively marketing solar-power installation services to consumers, the movement to convert Vermont homes and businesses to sun power is experiencing boom times.
Several Vermont firms are competing to install solar arrays at "no cost" to the consumer.
Now Vermont's largest developer of solar in the state, AllEarth Renewables, has announced its newest incentive to get more residents on board.
AllEarth Renewables officials said their firm's new "residential lease" is unique in the state by offering a no cost lease for homeowners to net meter with solar at or below their electric rates and be given the opportunity to fully own the system at a significantly reduced cost after 7 years.
These projects will consist of between one to four Vermont-manufactured AllSun solar trackers.
AllEarth said its community-scale solar lease features a no-cost program but with a guaranteed electric bill savings of 10 percent a year for larger customers, such as businesses, non-profits, schools, municipalities, and other institutions. These projects will consist of 10 trackers or more and can cover all or a percentage of the customer's annual electricity demands.
The lease payments under both options in this "home state" program will be at or below the customer's electricity savings, producing a zero net-cost agreement.
This type of third-party financing model now makes up the majority of solar installation nationally, but isn't normally available throughout smaller markets like Vermont.
"As a local manufacturer, we are excited to again be able to offer to our Vermont customers a financing option for residential, business and community projects, giving them the opportunity to net meter their energy and produce immediate savings on their electric bills," said David Blittersdorf, president and CEO of AllEarth Renewables.
The new program mirrors one that AllEarth Renewables offered in past years, which financed more than $18 million in residential installations and solar orchards for businesses and communities around the state. The company has more than 1,800 AllSun Trackers in Vermont alone and is an Inc. 500 company for fastest growing companies nationwide.

Has our Madam Govenor signed this piece of legislation yet?
Hasn't made it out yet, as of 05-14-09 still in House Judiciary Committee.
North Carolina General Assembly - Senate Bill 928 Information/History (2009-2010 Session) Am hoping it passes and Princess perdue signs it.
Any updates out there?
Castle Doctrine Stonewalling in Committee
(Printable {PDF} version here)
House Judiciary I Chair waiting for "direction from her leadership"
before proceeding
SB 928, "The Castle Doctrine," is now languishing in the House Judiciary I Committee.
Committee chair, Rep. Deborah K. Ross (GRNC 0 Star, Wake) indicated to GRNC legislative representatives that she considers your input "of little value," and was waiting for direction from "her leadership"
before scheduling.
So to borrow a line out of a classic sci-fi movie, "take me to your leader." Actually we should thank Rep. Ross for letting us know to whom she wishes to pass the buck. It is time to let Speaker Joe Hackney know that he needs to direct Ross to schedule SB 928 for a hearing; since she doesn't seem to know if she should without his "leadership."
Act now. We can see the goal line, time to push this one on in for a touchdown.
* Contact Speaker of the NC House, Joe Hackney. 919-733-3451, firstname.lastname@example.com
Dear Speaker Hackney:
Rep. Deborah Ross, chair of the House Judiciary I Committee, is waiting to hear from leadership before deciding on scheduling SB 928, "The Castle Doctrine" for a committee hearing. I urge you to direct her to do so and to give it a fair and honest hearing. It is too important that this worthy bill that will protect our citizens from dangerous criminals and abuses of the legal system after a case of self defense be passed into law.
The Castle Doctrine is an important concept that has proven effective in the protection of citizens in the number of states that have already implemented it. It is vital that you throw your influence behind the interests of the honest citizens of this state and allow them to protect themselves from criminals.
I trust that you wish to protect the lives and interests of the law abiding voters of North Carolina rather than enable the criminal element. Provide leadership in supporting SB 928. I will be following your actions on this bill through Grass Roots North Carolina.
A Concerned North Carolina Voter
This is how it stands as of 5-30-09
Email sent, will follow up with snail mail.
Email sent.
Done, and done.
Does this apply to any place that you might be, or just in your home?
By the way I noticed this line 42
42 SECTION 3. This act becomes effective December 1, 2009, and applies to
43 offenses committed on or after that date. Prosecutions for offenses committed before the
44 effective date of this act are not abated or affected by this act, and the statutes that would be
45 applicable but for this act remain applicable to those prosecutions.
I emailed Deborah Ross and asked her to bring the bill up for consideration. Her response? Pretty promptly. "Thank you for your email." No encouragement in that simple reply.
I just emailed Ms Ross again and a cc to Mr Hackney. Don't let them forget we're out here and watching.
Both of my last emails were returned as undeliverable. Fatal address flaws. Hmmmmm. Could Ms Ross and Mr Hackney be refusing emails now? ? ? ? ? ?

Can we just say we're big Elvis Costello fans and that no double entendre is intended by our selection of this song as Today's Tunage?
Don't tell me you don't know what love is
When you're old enough to know better
When you find strange hands in your sweater
When your dreamboat turns out to be a footnote
I'm a man with a mission in two or three editions
And I'm giving you a longing look
Everyday, everyday, everyday I write the book
Chapter One we didn't really get too far
Chapter Two I think I fell in love with you
You said you'd stand by me in the middle of Chapter Three
But you were up to your old tricks in
Chapters Four, Five and Six
And I'm giving you a longing look
Everyday, everyday, everyday I write the book
The way you walk
The way you talk, and try to kiss me, and laugh
In four or five paragraphs
All your compliments and your cutting remarks
Are captured here in my quotation marks
And I'm giving you a longing look
Everyday, everyday, everyday I write the book
Don't tell me you don't know the difference
Between a lover and a fighter
With my pen and my electric typewriter
Even in a perfect world where everyone was equal
I'd still own the film rights and be working on the sequel
And I'm giving you a longing look
Everyday, everyday, everyday I write the book

WASHINGTON - What does it all mean?
That's the question facing spelling whizzes across the country, who learned Tuesday that they will have to know the definitions of some of the those tough words they've been memorizing in the dictionary. For the first time, multiple-choice vocabulary tests will be added to the annual Scripps National Spelling Bee.
"Changes are not a surprise, but these changes are massive," said Mirle Shivashankar, whose daughter, 11-year-old Vanya, is among the favorites after finishing tied for 10th last year. "It came as a shocker. ... We're going to have to change the way we prepare a little bit."
The changes will make it easier to nail down the nine to 12 competitors who make it to the final round, which will look the same as it has for years to prime-time TV viewers, with spellers taking turns until only the champion has avoided the familiar doomsday bell. The changes do add a wrinkle to the televised semifinals, however, as even the best onstage spellers could find themselves eliminated from the finals if they perform poorly on the multiple-choice test.
Executive Director Paige Kimble said the changes were driven by the desire to reinforce the competition's purpose - to encourage students to improve their spelling and broaden their knowledge of the language.
"What we know with the championship-level spellers is that they think of their achievement in terms of spelling and vocabulary being two sides of the same coin," Kimble said.
Vocabulary has been a regular part of the bee during its 87-year history, but it's always been the spellers asking for the definition to help them spell the word.
Now the tables will be turned, with the spellers taking a computer test that looks like something from the SAT. The vocabulary tests will take place in private rooms and will not be part of the TV broadcasts.

Thoughts and Poll: 'If file formats were people: Who's allowed in your DAM club?'
A few months ago we posted two stories on file formats of choice and the need to perhaps be protective of what formats are allowed in you DAMS and which are not.
Since the articles wenth live, we've received quite a few comments:
aniemann states:
DNGs are a problem for me. You say the dance floor is limited…but a DNG with embedded raw uses up more dance floor. Yet, when you don't embed the raw, you end up losing the ability to use better converting algorithms that will come along later – as happened with Lightroom a year or so ago, for example.
Agreed. If you can afford the extra space (storage is much more affordable now) I would highly recommend embedding RAW files when creating DNGs. You never know when you may need to go back and make subtle adjustments to get just a bit more out of the file.
Lynn commented:
Have .eps files died in preference to an editable pdf created in say Illustrator?
I have been led to believe an eps produces better vector results than pdfs.
For example what would be best to use for a logo than is to be placed into a design document.
Granted PDFs can be viewed by ALL, but is an eps better quality wise?
EPS files are still being used in creative workflow but might be loosing some ground to the PDF format. If you are a Quark user you really have no choice but to continue to use EPS files. CS/CC users have the ability to use both EPS and PDF. EPS files can have issues when it comes to color management. Key take away: If your creating and sending out files often for printing or for use by others, take the time to ask 'What format do you prefer?'
PNG, though suggested in part two of the series as 'unable to gain access to the club', in fact should be given access.
Jeff Morrison states:
Also strange is your aversion to PNG. I understand the issue with lack of metadata support, but I can tell you that in my experience, most of the metadata was added within the DAM software, not prior to it.
I tend to agree. Perhaps not the sexist file format but because of their relatively small file size PNG's have lots of uses when dealing with file size limitations and bandwidth. Sure you can't embed metadata but embedding in all files may not be required in the large majority of workflows.
Sounds like we should settle it via a poll!

United Technologies (UTX) Dividend Stock Analysis
Posted by: Dividend Growth Investor (IP Logged)
Date: July 12, 2012 09:00AM
United Technologies Corporation (UTX) provides technology products and services to the building systems and aerospace industries worldwide. This dividend achiever has paid dividends since 1936 and increased distributions on its common stock for 17 years in a row.
The company's last dividend increase was in February 2012 when the Board of Directors approved a 12.90% increase to 48 cents/share. The company's largest competitors include Honeywell (HON), General Electric (GE) and Boeing (BA).
Over the past decade this dividend growth stock has delivered an annualized total return of 9.80% to its shareholders.
The company has managed to deliver 10.60% in annual EPS growth since 2002. Analysts expect United Technologies to earn $5.52 per share in 2012 and $6.68 per share in 2013. In comparison United Technologies earned $5.49/share in 2011.
In 2011, United Technologies agreed to acquire Goodrich Corporation (GR) for $18.40 billion. United Technologies expects to finance the transaction through a combination of debt and equity issuance. The equity component is expected to approximate 25 percent of the total. The closing is subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory and Goodrich shareholder approvals. Although this deal is expected to be dilutive in the first year at up to 50 cents/share, it should strengthen United Technologies position in in creating high-value systems for commercial aircraft manufacturers. Long term growth will be benefited from acquisitions as well as organic growth projects. Potential slowdown in key markets such as China however, could deliver some short-term weakness in revenues.The backlog in commercial airplanes at Boeing and Airbus until 2013 is one positive fact for United Technologies. Another plus will be orders to Otis for the new World Trade Center. The introduction of the Boeing 787 would also be positive for revenue growth. United Technologies generates 60% of its revenues from outside the US. Growth in emerging markets such as China would certainly add to the bottom line.
United Technologies has managed to maintain a consistently high returns on equity in the 20% - 25% range over the past decade. Rather than focus on absolute values for this indicator, I generally want to see at least a stable return on equity over time.
The annual dividend payment has increased by 15.30% per year over the past decade, which is higher than to the growth in EPS. This has led to an expansion in the dividend payout ratio for the company. United Technologies tends to boost dividends after five quarters, and not after our quarters like other companies.
A 15% growth in distributions translates into the dividend payment doubling almost every four and a half years. If we look at historical data, going as far back as 1974 we see that United Technologies has managed to double its dividend every seven and a half years on average.
The dividend payout ratio has increased over the past decade, rising from a low of 22% in 2002 to 34% in 2011. This explains the fact that dividend growth has been faster than earnings growth over the past decade. A lower payout is always a plus, since it leaves room for consistent dividend growth minimizing the impact of short-term fluctuations in earnings.
Currently, United Technologies is attractively valued at 15.40 times earnings, yields 2.60% and has an adequately covered dividend. I would consider adding to my position in the stock subject to availability of funds.

Today's NOTD is a very berry color originally introduced in OPI's South Beach collection called Miami Beet. This color has since been made permanent, and I'm loving it on my nails as an early fall color. It's not especially dark, and still has that hint of summery pink, but looks great with jeans and my brown leather boots :) This polish is very opaque... I used 2 coats for this post but 1 coat is probably enough!
Would you wear it?

When we try to enter a Lync web conference using Microsoft Lync 2010 Attendee, desktop sharing fails (with the error message - 'Sharing failed to connect due to network issues') unless we switch off KAV 6.0 on the client.
I've seen posts of other people with this issue and the advice is to add the following into 'Trusted applications':
%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Lync\communicator.exe
%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Lync\communicator.exe
%ProgramFiles(x86)%\Microsoft Lync\UcMapi.exe
%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Lync\UcMapi.exe
I'm not sure if these paths are relating to a different Lync client to the one I'm using, but the relevant Lync application for Lync 2010 Attendee looks to me to be:
%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Microsoft Lync Attendee\AttendeeCommunicator.exe
Anyway, I've added all of the above paths to my 'Trusted applications' list and checked the options to: 'Do not scan network traffic' and 'Do not scan opened files'. Desktop sharing via Lync still won't work.
For the %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Microsoft Lync Attendee\AttendeeCommunicator.exe I then checked all the available Actions boxes for the Trusted Applications (e.g. Allow interaction with application interface, Do not control application activity, etc.) but it still won't work.
Can anyone offer any further help? Will this issue be resolved if we upgrade to Kaspersky Endpoint Security 8?
Thanks in advance for any help,

The Vinsans Trace Chapter
In 1779, en route from Kaskaskia to the British fort at Vincennes, George Rogers Clark and his army of Virginia Militia followed a trail that passed through our area. In the early days of our country, this trail was known as the old Vinsans Trace and was the trail for settlers moving west. When researching records for a name for our chapter, the organizing members decided Vinsans Trace best represented our area.
We continue to research and promote study of the Vinsans Trace. To this effect, we have supported the commission of a bronze statue of Colonel Clark, which was placed on the Depot grounds and dedicated in October 2005. (The Depot is a National Trust Landmark.) In addition, we are participating with a local historian in the creation of a video which will include the history of our chapter and show some of the sites along the trail followed by Colonel Clark. This video will be a permanent addition to the Depot for public viewing.
How It Happened: The George Rogers Clark Statue in Flora, Illinois
It was simply a case of serendipity that Saturday morning in September 2004. This was the time of the Flora Academic Foundation's annual "Appleknocker Festival." And as luck would have it, Don Leroy Morris' wonderful wood carved statues were located in front of the local Vinsans Trace NSDAR booth at the festival.
Don Morris is a native of Clay County. He graduated in the class of 1955 from Flora Township High School. His talent is enormous...and we are so proud that he "hails" from Clay County in Southeastern Illinois.
On that Saturday morning in September 2004, there was a brief moment when the local DAR ladies could visit Don's booth and view all the beautiful carvings being displayed. The idea came up that the Vinsans Trace Chapter would truly like to have a statue of George Rogers Clark placed in Flora. After all, the chapter was named for his path through the area..."The Vinsans Trace."
After approaching Don with this idea, he agreed to go to the B & O Railroad Depot sitting along the "Vinsans Trace." And Don was impressed with the history and the project and said, "YES" when we asked him if he could create a George Rogers Clark statue!!
The Flora Community Development Corporation teamed up with the Vinsans Trace Chapter DAR to get the project going. Quilt raffle tickets were sold statewide and local donations solicited and the project was a "GO!" In just one year's time the statue was created by Don Morris and landscaping for the site was completed. Dedication was on October 8, 2005.
There are windows in time when serendipity serves to preserve our heritage. We are eternally grateful for the Guidance that put all of us in the right place at the right time to preserve a bit of Clay County's history.
