Re: January 2013 Suggestions
How about cam option for chatting with friends while playing?? It could be like the mic invite except it's for camera and chat. What do you all think? Yay or nay?
The video of teh chat could be displayed to the top left or right of the screen ^^^^
Save ChatLogs
Chat Log:
We should have the option to be able to save any Chat Log from any Channel we are currently in. This would also include those private chat messages sent to us in Home. We should have the option to save those Chat Logs to our Hard Drives. Maybe make another column like we have for Movies & Photos but then have it say Chat Log or something. We should be able to go back and review those Chat Logs if someone was harrasing us, if we got randomly disconnected from Home and would like to go back and read what we missed if we were away for a brief moment or just to keep it for whatever reason. Just a thought is all.
Re: Save ChatLogs
Good Idea, even when you meet this new friend and you start talking to him or her, you get disconnected and when you get back on your able to send that person a message instead of just trying to find them again since the chat log stuff is gone.

A New Year Full of Words
By BlazeHedgehog 3 Comments
So, it's 2009. The older you get, it seems, the faster time flies. Does that mean I'm having fun? I suppose if I have to ask that question, I already know the answer... honestly, though, I don't even know what I'm talking about right now.
The weirdest part? Next year is 2010. It kills me to say that. 2010. 2010 is one of those dates that was always referenced as the far flung future where everybody is supposed to have flying cars and robot butlers and jet packs. Freaks me right out to consider that. And then, not far from that, we have 2012. Depending on who you ask, 2012 is a big deal because that's when the Mayan Calendar ends and may or may not be the end of the world. We've had "this date might be the end of the world" events before and nothing has happened, but it'll at least be interesting to experience it. And then not far after 2012 will be 2015, another big far flung future year - specifically the one referenced in Back to the Future II.
Christmas was alright, I guess. A lot of refurbished or used stuff, but because of that, I got more and better stuff than I usually get. The biggest one is that I got a new camera. For a change, this one is actually pretty decent - a Kodak EasyShare M753. It's still not what you would call a great camera, like a Canon or a Nikon or anything, but it is leaps and bounds over my old camera (7.1 megapixels with tons of settings vs. 5 with almost no settings) and came with a 4GB Memory Card. Finally, no more of that stupid "the camera only holds 9 pictures or one minute of video". 3500 pictures and 80 minutes of video, this time - WITH sound!
Then, we have a cheap MP3 player. This one had 8GB of onboard memory and played a massive list of media formats (audio, video, pictures, etc.) but within two days it was busted and non-functional. Currently seeking a replacement or a refund on that one, though, it was so cheap, a refund might not even be worth it. (Cue "You get what you pay for")
I also scored The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian on DVD, which was sort of weird, but not entirely unappreciated. I mean, I liked the original Narnia movie, I guess. I liked it enough to where I don't think I'll exchange the DVD. I guess I'm just sort of ambivalent because I've taken to renting movies on Netflix before buying them, and I haven't seen this yet to know if I like it enough to own it. Only one way to find out, though!
And then, some ultra-cheap used games. Final Fantasy 1 & 2: Dawn of Souls on the Gameboy Advance, for example. I've been slowly playing FF1 so far and... I really miss this style of Final Fantasy so much. New Final Fantasy games are so... flashy and glamorous in a bad way; lots of overdressed Japanese Supermodels with funny names running around Coruscant from Star Wars: Episode 1. That's all I see Final Fantasy for since FFVIII; and none of that interests me anymore at all. It feels so manufactured and overcooked and just... not for me. Final Fantasy 1 not only retains the classic Final Fantasy vibe, but it's refreshingly open-ended for a Final Fantasy game. After the initial quest to defeat Garland and rescue the Princess, the game basically tells you "Yeah, uh, restore the four crystals, I guess? You'll figure it out." and you're turned loose to go pretty much wherever you please. There's a genuine sense of adventure and discovery that Final Fantasy games haven't had in a very, very long time.
Next up is The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, a game I've been meaning to pick up for ages. I haven't played more than an hour of it so far, but it's already got me hooked in ways Twilight Princess failed to. Twilight Princess, to me, felt like a very technically competent game that was just lacking in any sense of... excitement, I guess. Like the developers went "FINE, if you guys don't like Wind Waker, here's your mature Zelda game" - with all the effort of a parent who is giving in to the temper tantrum of a spoiled child. Twilight Princess just didn't really feel terribly inspired to me, and while there was quite a bit of content in it, a lot of it felt like padding. The game took forever to get any kind of momentum going and there was way too much downtime between dungeons. We'll see how Wind Waker goes - I've heard stories about the terrible Triforce quest near the end of the game.
Rounding out the used games bonanza is the first Sly Cooper game, which I have not had a chance to play just yet. In addition, my cousin lended me the first Gears of War and Mass Effect in addition to providing me with some other goodies, like Two Worlds and a video of a Tenacious D concert - which I'll actually be watching once I finish writing this blog (upon further inspection: the specific name is TENACIOUS D: THE COMPLETE MASTERWORKS 2, written in all caps because you can't do anything but write something like that in all caps).
I've only had a chance to play Gears so far (up to Chapter 4), and it's been a good time, I guess. A lot harder than I was expecting, but in a good way - a game hasn't really challenged me like Gears of War in what feels like forever. But there's something... off feeling about the game. I can't really put my finger on it. It's like the game doesn't interest me, but for some reason, I find myself having a hard time putting the controller down, if that makes any sense. Maybe it's the story - or the lack-there-of. You really get the sense that there's something here, in Gears of War, but Epic Games does not have the tools to rationalize what is going on. Or maybe they're trying to tell a story like Valve tells a story - letting the environment speak for itself. I don't know. There's just enough story here and just enough interesting characters that the almost... too videogame-y stuff about it doesn't mesh well. Like there's supposed to be a weight and a gravitas to everything, but then you have a mine cart level. I've heard things about the final boss for this game, too, like how a lot of people won only through luck, or something, so that's something I'm dreading.
I... think that's about it? I guess? Yeah. Onwards, to 2009! Chances are, it, too, will be over I realize it!

Originally posted on Waiting For Next Year | Last updated 10/20/12
Paul Hoynes, the Plain Dealer's long-time Cleveland Indians scribe, snuck some coaching staff details in his post about Matt LaPorta's hip surgery on Friday. Here's the latest on the staff unfolding alongside Terry Francona, Sandy Alomar and likely Brad Mills: GM Chris Antonetti and manager Terry Francona are still interviewing candidates for the coaching staff. Class AAA manager Mike Sarbaugh interviewed for the infield coach's job earlier in the week. There's an opening because Steve Smith took next season off to watch his son, Garrett, play his senior year in college. Sarbaugh, 45, has been the Tribe's Triple-A manager for the past three years. He led the Clippers to Triple-A championships in 2010 and 2011. He's been in the organization for 23 years. Tim Belcher, Indians pitching coach in 2010 and 2011, is not a candidate to return to that position. He stepped down for family reasons and those still remain. Ruben Niebla ended the year as the interim pitching coach after replacing Scott Radinsky, who was fired. The Indians are looking for a hitting coach because Bruce Fields was not rehired. It appears that the announcements of Fields and Smith came earlier this week, but this appears to be new news about Sarbaugh, a logical choice unless another team nabs him, along with Belcher, who many expected to return in 2013. [Related: Francona Hire is a Coup, but if Chris Antonetti Can't Find Pitching, it Won't Matter]

Dave & Sandy in Europe - Part Deux
About this blog
This adventure really started 40 years ago, just after we got married and I was working at ISU. I had the summer off and we made plans to tour Europe for six weeks. Now, don't get the wrong idea, we were not jet-setting first class all over the continent. No, we purchased a book by Frommer entitled, "Europe on $5 and $10 a Day," and we tried to stick to that amount. We drove to our friend's house (Jack Vetter) who was attending Syracuse University Law School. We stayed with Jack and his wife, Pam for about a week before they took us to NYC's Kennedy Airport where we boarded an Icelandic Airlines flight (they were the cheapest!) to Luxembourg, with a stop in Reykjavik. Iceland. We traveled all around Europe that summer and made it back to the States just in time to watch "Tricky Dick" Nixon resign his Presidency. I wasn't a Nixon fan. In fact, I was pretty liberal at that time of my life, but weren't we all when we were young?
I was 23 and Sandy was 21. I posted a picture of us back then. Long hair and all (on both of us!) We had first class Eurail passes and started in Luxembourg, then to Amsterdam in Holland, Antwerp, Brussels, Ghent, Bruges in Belgium, Paris (where we actually found a hotel for $5 a night...which included breakfast!) and Nice in France, Genoa, Pisa, Rome, Florence, Venice in Italy, Geneva, Bern, Lucerne in Switzerland, Innsbruck and Vienna in Austria and Munich, Frankfort, and Giessen in Germany. We visited Giessen because Sandy's brother had a girlfriend while stationed there in the Army. We sort of used that has home base and did excursions to other countries from there.
This trip we have lopped off Italy. That sounds like a separate trip in the future. Sandy has been preparing for this trip since she retired two years ago. She's been taking French (like six years in grade school and high school weren't enough!) and Art History where she's developed a great relationship with her teacher at Heartland Community College. She's been going around telling people she's a college coed again!
We plan on seeing some of the places we saw on our first trip and some more which have become of interest to us in recent years. We will start in Amsterdam. Sight of the start of our European River Cruise last year. And also the sight of where we fell asleep on a train and lost our brief case full of things like our passports, camera, iPhone, iPad, etc....no big deal!!! Head to Antwerp, Brussels (where we plan to have dinner with a former Redline Express Dancer, Wendy Williams Vastine and her husband. They live just outside Brussels.) Then it's Bruges, Ghent, and off to Paris for 5 days. Besides the main attractions in Paris, we plan a day trip to Normandy to view the American Cemetery and the place where the Allies invaded Europe on D-Day June 6, 70 years ago. Glad we'll be there a little earlier...could be a zoo in June. Then to the South of France, Marseilles. I want to do some Nostradamas history (he was from there) and maybe some Mary Magdalene history as well (she supposedly came to this area in France...you remember the DaVinci Code.) Actually reading a book on Mary Magdalene right now. The more I read, the more I am convinced that she was "the most beloved desciple" and Jesus intended for her to lead in his absence. (Now my daughter, the MDiv will argue that point with me, but I still believe it!)
From there we're heading north to Geneva, Switzerland. We'll be meeting up with good friends, Alex and Annie Remmers who live in Geneva. We actually bought Alex and Annie's house when they moved from Bloomngton to Pittsburgh. Sandy wanted me to make sure to ask them if we could use their washer and dryer! We're packing light this trip! Then to Interlaken, where Sandy found a great mountain train trip. Then Luceren, where Sandy and I spent a great day on Mount Pilatus overlooking Lake Lucerne one sunny summer day 40 years ago. Then Innsbruck, Austria, Munich Germany for some beer at the Hofbrahaus and a solumn trip to Dachau Concentration Camp. Then on to Rodental, Germany, home of the Hummel Factory. And finally, Berlin which is new to us. Back in the 70's it was not easy to get to as it was behind the "Iron Curtain." Then a fast train back to Amsterdam and the next day home.
I told Sandy I think the airfare over there and back this time equals about what we spent the entre six weeks in 1974. And if you think I'm kidding, we kept a journal back then (before computers allowed us to blog!) and one entry said, "Holy Crap! We blew our budget today, we spent $28!" Hotel accommodations are better this time around too.
We've been spending the past week or two getting ready and trying to think of everything we need to take. But if we forget something, as Sandy says, "That's what charge cards are for!"
Charge cards are interesting in and of themsevles. We ordered a new charge card to take with us because we read about how Europe is way ahead of us in cards. They have computer chips in their charge cards which take the place of the magnetic strips on the back. They are much more secure than the mag strips we use here. I found the Chase Saphire Preferred Card (unfortunately with an annual fee) has the computer chip in it. Good side is that this card does not charge international transaction fees.
So tonight, we are packing and worrying about what we may have forgotten! Be that as it may, we are on our way tomorrow. I'll probably send this from ATL tomorrow. We fly from BMI to ATL tomorrow afternoon and then an overnight flight to Amsterdam.

This happens when you run out of toilet paper and your shit hardens around your asshole forming a thick crust giving it the appearance of a chocolate donut. This does not apply to black people.
my friends saw my crusty anus ring making them want to eat it out like a chocolate donut.
by donutfetish October 17, 2011
When a guy or girl takes a shit, doesn't wipe their ass and sits on your face. Leaving the sides of your mouth all chocolatey.
After sex you come out of the room and someone says, "Hey man, did you eat a chocolate donut? You got chocolate on your mouth."
by Norman Bangs June 01, 2013
When a guy has a donut on his dick and is doing a girl back door, then after he finishes he takes the donut off then he has the girl shit on it, then she eats it.
Oh man I had the best chocolate donut last night.

Shake hard as all hell and strain into a cocktail glass.... Drip drops all about the top and enjoy the show
Obvious riff on last word, tastes remarkably similar, if not softer and still stronger.... Adjust rye per guest preference, of course.... By that i mean sometimes it may be prudent to add more.... Perhaps lessen overall proportions for your very serious whiskey drinkers to .5for all and 2 rye. This would need bit of sugar... Honey? benedictine? simple would not lend enough, methinks. . . .wow, its strong....
Made in Detroit at the Detroit Athletic Club... Remade by bartenders the world round since 1951.... cheers, countrymen. Here's to the beauty of composition in a simple ratio... i am about to make another
From other users
- I would likely scale back the Cointreau slightly next time but the rye does a good job of keeping it in check.

Now that the introduction has been made, and the specs are released, the Apple iPhone 4S has been outed for what it is. The device is an Apple iPhone 4 with a fairly substantial improvement in software. The problem is that most of the improvements only match current Android specs such as HSPA+ connectivity. At the event, Apple tried to show that the iPhone 4S is just as fast as some other Android models using HSPA+, but the truth is that the chart really should have been used by Android manufacturers instead of Apple to show non-techies that despite Cupertino's constant propaganda, it is the Apple iPhone 4S that is just now catching up to the speed of other Android 4G models using HSPA+ pipelines.
Android smartphones are supposed to have quad-core under the hood by Q1 2012. And we won't start another fanboy squabble by discussing the 3.5 inch screen on the Apple iPhone 4S as compared to the 4.52 inch display on the Sprint and T-Mobile variants of the Samsung Galaxy S II.
This is not to say that the Apple iPhone 4S is not a good phone. Nay, it might even be a great phone. But since in many ways it is just bringing Apple up to match Android specs, would Verizon pass on the Samsung Galaxy S II for the Apple iPhone 4S? Or could it be that the Google Nexus Prime, with its Ice Cream Sandwich goodness, will be truly amazing. Don't forget that anonymous 4Chan poster who claimed to have played with the device and passed along what he believes are the specs of the phone. The Google Nexus Prime will supposedly be equipped with a 1.5GHz dual-core processor and a 4.65 inch curved glass display with 720p resolution. 16GB of storage is on board and a 2000mAh battery powers the phone. According to the anonymous source of this information, the Google Nexus Prime is why Verizon said no to the Samsung Galaxy S II. And now that Samsung tells us that "Something BIG is Coming", we can only agree.

Every summer always seems to involve one huge speculative summer transfer, last year we had the 'Hulk saga' where Brazilian International attacker was all set for a move to London in the shape of Chelsea, but with The Blues refused to pay his high asking price the striker then went on to join rich Russian side Zenit St. Petersburg.
This season see's the ever changing saga of Napoli forward Edinson Cavani. The Uruguayan striker is being targetted by Premier League giants Manchester City and Chelsea, as well as the reigning La Liga Champions Real Madrid. It could potentially be a mouth watering prospect for any one of those clubs.
We know Cavani wants to leave and will most likely go this summer despite claims that Napoli want him to stay. Having said that, there are reports circulating on Monday that Napoli are already lining up his replacement, in the shape of Brazilian goal poacher Leandro Damiao, who is also a target for English side Tottenham Hotspurs. Sources within Napoli have also stated that it will be better for the club if Cavani stayed away from the Premier League.
We have also had reports of Cavani's Mother and Father both stating that their son is going to different clubs, Real Madrid and Manchester City. Take that with a pinch of salt, these things always happen and to be honest it can change right up until the last minute, it all depends on which club is prepared to match the players high buyout clause of £53 million. Chelsea have reportedly already had a deal rejected that involved player plus cash, with Fernando Torres allegedly being the player offered. Whether Blues owner Roman Abramovich is ready to offer the full amount of money to activate his clause, remains to be known.
The only certain fact at the moment, is that Cavani is currently featuring for Uruguay in The Confederations Cup in South America and he his future will not be sorted out until that finishes.

Office of Public Affairs
November 8, 2012
The United States Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit on Tuesday enforced the National Labor Relations Board's order finding that a Maryland janitorial supply company prematurely declared impasse in negotiations with its employees' union and unlawfully failed to reinstate workers after they went on strike to protest that declaration.
In its unpublished opinion, the Court summarily enforced the Board's September 2011 order requiring Daycon Products Company, Inc., to reinstate all striking employees and make them whole for any losses incurred because of the refusal to reinstate them earlier. The Court also affirmed that the company illegally subcontracted out work without negotiating with the union, and ordered Daycon to rescind any unilateral changes and resume bargaining.
Daycon employees have been represented by the Drivers, Chauffeurs and Helpers Local Union 639, affiliated with the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, since 1973. In April 2010, after about 10 negotiating sessions for a new contract, the company declared it had reached impasse and implemented its last bargaining order. Days later, union employees walked out on strike because of the unfair labor practice. They offered to return unconditionally in early July of that year.
If a strike is called in response to an employer's unfair labor practices, the employer must reinstate striking workers when they offer unconditionally to return to work, even if it means displacing workers who were hired in the meantime. However, Daycon refused.
In enforcing the Board's order, the Court agreed that "the Board's findings are supported by substantial evidence in the record." It also rejected Daycon's procedural challenges, including a claim that the Board denied it a fair hearing by issuing a press release summarizing the case following a decision by an administrative law judge.

How Julian Assange Made it Harder for Women to Report Rape
Erika Lust | Posted 10.29.2012 | Canada Politics
Read More: Women's Rights, Julian Assange, Diplomacy, Rape, Wikileaks, Sex, Sweden, Canada, Political Asylum, Media, Women Against Rape, Canada Politics News
Julian Assange faces an Interpol order for his extradition to Sweden for the crime of sexual assault, though he has sought asylum to avoid these charges (among others). This case infuriates me: as a Swedish woman, a feminist, and someone who works to promote sex as passionate and beautiful act within the adult industry. Rape is a gross power play and the message to victims needs to be that, though they were violated, they can regain control through reporting their rape. I understand that many have no faith in the legal and political system, and that Assange is responsible for a lot of disillusionment in this regard.

My favorite toy company in the world is Hot Toys. It hurts when just about everything they release is something that I want. Whether it's Iron Man, Tron, or Michael Jackson, they make it very difficult to keep the wallet in the pocket when pre-orders go up. This new round is making it just that much harder for me. On Sideshow Collectibles, there are several new items from Hot Toys to tempt your wallet.
I love just about everything Iron Man, so the MkVI armor easily becomes a want. While it was previewed way back in July, it's now available for pre-order with a special Sideshow exclusive. You can get the standard MkVI for $209.99 or for just an extra $5, grab the Sideshow exclusive and get an extra left forearm armor. The bonus piece can be used on any of Hot Toys' True Type bodies, so imagine the possibilities.
If you caught TRON: Legacy this weekend, regardless of your opinion on the film, you have to say that these figures by Hot Toys are none the less impressive. Kevin Flynn is a modest $149.99 while Sam Flynn and his light cycle will go for $299.99.
The MkVI is definitely tempting and pretty much anything TRON is a must get for me. Anyone plan on adding these to their collection?

The EigenDecompositionImpl class contains methods to calculate the eigenvalues/eigenvectors of real symmetric matrices. However, for real asymmetric matrices there are currently no methods available to do this.

postponing fix to post 2.1
postponing once again to next version
Anyone want to take a stab at this for 3.0?
We have already used some code directly from Jama. Perhaps we could do the same here ?
What do our linear algebra gurus think ?
Since nobody seems available to solve this soon, postponing again to 3.1.
Adding this would not break compatibility as it is a new feature, so it can be done at a minor version release.
As a first step, I worked on a Hessenberg Transformer to reduce a non-symmetric matrix to Hessenberg form.
The code is taken mainly from jama and follows the TridiagonalTransformer.
As already written on the mailinglist, the port has been committed to the trunk.
The integrated DecompositionSolver has not yet been adapted for complex eigenvalues, but the rest should be working. Any help and feedback is welcome!

Most of the electronics we use on a regular basis aren't designed to be thrown in a swimming pool and survive. Sony's $98 NWZ-W273 Walkman Sports MP3 Player, was. This fact, along with their relatively low price, make it a tempting purchase for anyone worried about subjecting their smartphone, MP3 player or an expensive set of headphones to the sweat and casual abuse that can destroy most gadgets during the course of a workout or run.
The NWZ-W273 combine a set of earbuds and a 4GB MP3 player into a pair of plastic pods connected by a rubber wire that wraps around the back of the neck. Sony provides three different sizes of earbuds to ensure a secure fit. The whole package weighs roughly 29 grams.
In order to make the NWZ-W273 waterproof, Sony had to design the headset as a sealed unit, which means no mini or micro USB ports. Because of this, the NWZ-W273 ships with a specialized charging cable that doubles a dock for the headset. A 90-minute charge will net you eight hours of use – that's not bad. What's exceptional is that a three-minute charge will provide users with an hour's worth of use. For anyone like me that forgets to regularly charge their hardware, this is a killer feature.
The noise the NWZ-W273 funnels into your skull is controlled by a series of chunky buttons set into the bottom and back of the two pods. Play/pause, volume, shuffle, power and track control – all of the usual suspects – are there and easy to find while you're wearing them. There's no display to show you what track you're listening to or what function you've just chosen, but as the NWZ-W273 is designed to be worn on your ears and is therefore out of sight while you're using it, that's forgivable. Some of the less obvious commands you can give to the NWZ-W273 are verified by the MP3 player with an audio cue: so when you shuffle your music, access a playlist or change music folders, a voice will tell you that you've done so. The music you'll be shuffling through can be dragged and dropped into the NWZ-W273's flash storage via USB using a Windows or Mac computer.
What do they sound like? Well, not bad. But not great either. The NWZ-W273 provided a respectable amount of bass (something you want in a set of workout headphones so that you can keep a cadence while running or pumping iron) with decent mid-range and high-end sound too. Unfortunately, when confronted with tonally complex music, the NWZ-W273 can make things sound a little washed out. But remember, this is an all-in-one waterproof MP3 player and earbuds in a sub $100 package, not a set of high-end Bose or Sennheiser studio headphones. Considering everything else you get for your money from these things, I think that the lack of audio fidelity should be expected and is certainly forgivable.
Sony designed the NWZ-W273 to be waterproof up to a depth of two meters. That's good news for swimmers, and even better news for the anyone who wants to use them out of the water because that means there's little chance that rain, your sweat or a splash from your water bottle will kill them.
Unfortunately, while you can use them while you're swimming, you likely won't want to. I discovered that unless the fit in your ears is perfectly watertight, the volume and quality of sound you'll get out of the NWZ-W273 is diminished almost to the point of inaudibility as soon as you dive into the pool. With even a small amount of water getting between the earbuds and my ears, I was unable to hear much of anything, even after maxing out the headphones' volume. A pity.
Final Verdict: Sony's $98 NWZ-W273 Walkman Sports MP3 Player is a great pick for anyone looking for an affordable, rugged MP3 player to keep them company at the gym, on a jog or a long bike ride. But despite their being waterproof, they're a lousy companion for the pool.Report Typo/Error

Kevin Pietersen will become England's 28th one-day international captain when he leads out the boys against New Zealand at Lord's.
Sparing injury, illness or nuclear holocaust, he will also captain the side against Scotland on August 18 before a Twenty20 match against his native South Africa at the Riverside.
The toss at Chester-le-Street should be an interesting one and it may need Richard Steele to step in for Mike Atherton and separate the two captains.
Why? Because Pietersen and Graeme Smith get on about as well as John Merrick and his blind date at match.com.
Here's a brief outline of their love for each other:
KP: "I found Graeme Smith's attitude pretty childish. He's a bloke who needs the game but he hasn't got many friends in it. I don't talk to Smith now. It's a waste of breath because I don't have any respect for him."
GS: "I'm patriotic about my country, and that's why I don't like Kevin Pietersen. The only reason that Kevin and I have never had a relationship is because he slated South Africa. It was his decision to leave and that's fine, but why does he spend so much time slating our country?"
KP: "The system is ********. It created an artificial team and that will never do anything to encourage the racial integration of cricket in South Africa."
GS: "If he had kept his mouth shut he would have had far fewer people angry at him and he would have taken far less flak from the crowds."
Fair to say we can expect a few chirps then this summer.
- - -
Stat man John has just sent Cowers an urgent fax to tell me that he will become the 16th man born outside England to captain the country.
Here's the list:
- Pelham Warner (born Port of Spain, Trinidad)
- Frederick Fane (born County Kildare, Ireland
- Douglas Jardine (born Bombay, India)
- Gubby Allen (born Sydney, Australia)
- Freddie Brown (born Lima, Peru)
- Donald Carr (born Wiesbaden, Germany)
- Colin Cowdrey (born Ootacamund, India)
- Ted Dexter (born Milan, Italy)
- Tony Lewis (born Swansea, Wales)
- Mike Denness (born North Lanarkshire, Scotland)
- Tony Greig (born Cape Province, South Africa)
- Allan Lamb (born Cape Province, South Africa)
- Adam Hollioake (born Melbourne, Australia)
- Nasser Hussain (born Madras, India)
- Andrew Strauss (born Johannesburg, South Africa)
- - -
QUOTE OF THE DAY: "We view Kevin Pietersen as a key batter in the England line-up. If we can make life very difficult for him then we feel that can play a big part in controlling England's batting," Graeme Smith with a vague undercurrent of grudging respect.
FEEDBACK OF THE DAY: "If I ever hear the words "1981" and "underarm" in the same sentence again there is a serious possibility of another collision, this time between a house brick and my TV screen," vllles makes it two out of two as he continues his hate campaign at Ian Smith.
TALKING POINT: Are Pietersen and Smith the greatest rivals in international cricket? Who else down the years have just not got along - members of the same team included.
COMING UP: The Twenty20 Cup group stages are set to reach a dramatic conclusion this evening with three of the quarter-final places still up for grabs - all the scorecards from 5.30pm.

ST. LOUIS — Brown Shoe Company saw a shift in sales to the second quarter from the third quarter which helped deliver net sales of $621.7 million for the second quarter ended Aug. 3, up 10% from $564.9 million last year.
Famous Footwear had sales of $388.2 million for the quarter, up 10.8% year-over-year, while same-store-sales surged 6.8%. The strong performance was led by good sales growth in running, sandal and canvas shoe styles. During the quarter, the company closed or relocated 14 stores and added 19 new stores, as average revenue per square foot continued to improve.
Wholesale sales of $180.5 million were up 12.4% for the quarter, excluding sales from discontinued brands. For the Healthy Living platform, wholesale sales of $106 million were up 14.4%, excluding sales from discontinued brands, reflecting double-digit sales growth at Naturalizer, LifeStride and Dr. Scholl's. The company's Contemporary Fashion wholesale sales of $73.4 million were up 10.2% for the quarter, excluding sales from discontinued brands, with good growth from Sam Edelman and Franco Sarto.
"For the second quarter, we exceeded expectations with an improvement in adjusted EPS of over 100%. While consolidated net sales were up $57 million in the quarter — or 10% year-over-year — approximately $22 million of this amount was timing related, due to a shift in sales to the second quarter from the third quarter," said Diane Sullivan, president and CEO of Brown Shoe Company. "Both retail and wholesale contributed to this quarter's success, with Famous delivering record second quarter sales and operating profit and both of our wholesale platforms — Healthy Living and Contemporary Fashion — reporting double-digit increases in sales."
The company's consolidated gross profit increased 11.8% to $254.6 million for the quarter, while its gross margin of 41% improved by approximately 70 basis points versus the prior year
Brown Shoe Company is a global footwear company which serves three key market segments with its family brands Famous Footwear, Famous.com and shoes.com; its healthy living brands Naturalizer, Dr. Scholl's Shoes, LifeStride and Ryka; and its contemporary fashion brands Via Spiga, Vince, Sam Edelman, Franco Sarto, Carlos Santana and Fergie Footwear.

By Cathy Strange, August 23, 2013 | More posts by Cathy Strange
Cathy Strange's role as global cheese and specialty foods buyer for Whole Foods Market® puts her in the unique position of travelling the world to not only discover and encourage the world's great cheesemakers, but also to help advance the artisanal food movement and investigate the world's emergent food trends. If a new preparation technique is causing ripples in Berlin, or a centuries-old curing tradition is gaining a foothold in Seattle, Cathy knows about it.
One of the things I love most about my job is the joy of discovering amazing cheeses, little-known wines and delightful new foods. The world of food and drink has so much to offer and when I'm lucky enough to find something wonderful, I get to share it with you.
Several years ago in Mantua, in the region of Emilia Romagna in northernmost Italy, I happened upon mostarda. Although the name may evoke mustard, this spicy-sweet condiment is far from the mustards we know. Mostarda is made very simply, from candied local fruits preserved in sugar and a touch of mustard seed or mustard oil to give it a zippy punch.
I've enjoyed mostarda made from pears, figs, green tomatoes, crabapples and even thinly sliced watermelon rinds. Each fruit, or sometimes vegetable, adds its own character, flavor and texture. And although the ingredients are simple, the end result is not! Earthy aromas mingle with the sweetness of the fruit, touched by an almost wasabi-like jolt of mustard.
Spread It, Glaze It, Make It Yourself
Mostarda is one of those goes-great-with-anything condiments. Its versatility is amazing. Traditionally mostarda is served with boiled meats as part of a charcuterie plate, but I just can't get enough of it when dolloped on top of a fresh, creamy cheese. Use it chutney-like as a topping for grilled meats, or glaze roasted pork chops or pork loin with it. Spread lightly on toasted ciabatta for one incredible turkey sandwich.
Small Batches, Locally Grown
The mostarda I'm loving right now comes from Le Tamerici in Mantua, Italy. Paola sources locally-grown fruits, which she slices, candies and then prepares in small batches with just a drop or two of mustard oil. The first taste is deeply pungent, savory and sweet, then comes a hint of salty tartness capped off with a horseradishy kick.
Layer a cracker with a generous topping of Vermont Butter & Cheese Creamery Bonne Bouche goat cheese and a spoonful of Casa Forcello's Crabapple Mostarda. The creaminess of the cheese rounds out the mostarda's sweetness and makes room for that punch at the end. Tangy, sweet-spicy heaven!
Pick up a jar of mostarda and see where it takes you. I'd love to hear the creative ways you're using it.

Ripoff Report
Kaplan University550 West Van Buren Street Chicago, Illinois USA
Kaplan University Kaplan did the exact same thing to me as they did to Karen who filed the former complaint against Kaplan. Chicago Illinois
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
My situation is just like Karen's. My school loans are over $68,000. In addition to the school loans, Kaplan refuses to release my B.S. in Business degree until I actually pay them an additional $5,000. I was also told by the admission counselor the my student loans would be paid many my financial aid. when I was a student, I would always call the financial aid office to ensure that I was okay & that my classes were covered all the way up until 6 months before my completion of school. I was informed that my last semester was not covered because my financial aid ran out and then stuck me with an additional $5000.
I enrolled into the University At the age of 40 for self perseverance. At that time, I was debt free. There is no way I would have enrolled into a college knowing that I would end up with a $70,000 debt. Not to mention, 3 years after completing the school, I still don't have my degree because I don't have $5000 to pay them. I've been paying the school $50/mo for 3 years and my balance is still $5000. If there is a class action lawsuit against Kaplan University, please include me as well. Thanks.

You don't have a legal leg to stand on. It is YOUR responsibility to understand how student loans work. When you signed for them you were made aware of how much you were receiving so the $70,000 shouldn't come as a surprise. Every semester you used more and more of your aid until it ran out before all your tuition was paid. So the remaining $5000 is your responsibility. No school will release transcripts until the bill is paid. That's standard.
Your best option at this point is to borrow the $5000, pay the bill, get your transcript, and try to find a job that will enable you to pay off the loans.
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

Gas Prices Creep Higher -- Especially in DC
(Markette Smith -- Washington, DC, WAMU) Gas prices in the D.C. Metro area are up nearly 10 cents from a week ago, and the threat of a conflict in the Middle East may be driving prices up.
In the nation's capital, the average cost per gallon is $3.70, causing people to grumble as they make their regular trips to the pump.
At a gas station on M Street in Northwest, motorists are filling up for $4.49 per gallon for regular fuel. It's one of the highest priced stations in the area.
While fuel prices are traditionally low during the cold weather months, several issues in play at this time may translate into higher gas prices.
"There are three things right now going on that might be driving up oil prices, or that could in the future," says Jeff Colgan, an International Relations professor at American University. (WAMU is licensed to American University).
"One is the U.S. and European embargo on Iranian oil," Colgan continues. "Second is the possibility of an Israeli attack on Iran and the third is the Iranian response to all of that, which is the threat to close the Strait of Hormuz and therefore cut off a huge portion of the world's oil supply."
That would include oil from Saudia Arabia, Kuwait and Iraq, according to Colgan.
"19 million barrels of oil per day flow through the Strait of Hormuz and if it gets restricted that could drive up gasoline prices around the world, including obviously here in DC," Colgan says.
But John Townsend of AAA-Mid Atlantic says the situation in the Middle East cannot be blamed, because crude oil prices are at a six-week low.
"There's demand destruction out there," he says. "People aren't driving as much and this time of year, they're all working and all nestled down in their jobs, so what, then, would be the reason for gas prices at record highs for this time of year other than pure greed?"
Townsend says D.C. area consumers can expect to pay record high amounts for gas in the coming spring and summer.

Brad Marchand: Shawn Thornton knew Dale Weise wanted to fight Adam McQuaid
|01.11.12 at 2:26 pm ET
Bruins forward Brad Marchand, making his regular appearance on WEEI with Mut and Merloni, revealed Wednesday that Bruins forward Shawn Thornton knew that Vancouver forward Dale Weise was not trying to fight him in the first period of Saturday's game.
Weise extended a challenge and appeared ready to drop his gloves prior to a face-off in the opening period, but when Thornton dropped his gloves at 14:58 of the period, Weise, who had fourth Nathan Horton earlier in the period, kept them on. Though at first glance it appeared Weise was using a cheap tactic to sucker Thornton into a penalty, Marchand said Wednesday that the challenge was indeed being extended to Adam McQuaid, and that Thornton jumped in to "surprise" Weise.
"I'm going to clear it up for everyone who's listening," Marchand said. "It was actually a really sneaky play by Thorty. Weise was trying to fight McQuaid, who was standing behind Thornton on the point. McQuaid was going to fight him. So, Weise was yelling and saying, 'Yeah, let's go, let's go.'
"Thorty just figured that at that point he'd drop his gloves and surprise Weise. And the ref just kind of heard Weise yelling 'Let's go' and thought he was talking to Thorty and conning him into a penalty. Thorty kind of surprised him when Thorty dropped his gloves. Weise had no idea Thorty was going to do that."
Added Marchand: "Him and Quaider know each other a bit from the minors and I think junior as well. They might have went at [it] there."
Marchand's words corroborate Weise's story, as he told reporters prior to Monday's game that he was trying to fight McQuaid.
Thornton expressed confusion by the play following the game, though he did suggest that Weise could have possibly been looking to fight McQuaid. Both players were given unsportsmanlike conduct minors for the ordeal.
"Oh, he said 'let's go'," Thornton said after the game. "I don't know if he was talking to me or someone else but [referee Dan O'Rourke] heard him and [referee Don] VanMassenhoven heard him and that's why he went with me I'm assuming. I mean, you'll have to ask him. But Donny said, 'wait until the puck drops' and I said 'of course'. I heard him say 'we'll go', maybe he was talking to McQuaid or I have no idea. But, I thought it was, obviously thought it was go time."
Thornton added Tuesday night on Comcast Sports Net that he wanted to fight Weise because he was among the players who jumped him when he was drastically outnumbered 3:54 into the game.

It's a 1967 Pontiac Firebird 400 convertible.
Bought it last year in August. I sold my 2001 Trans Am because I wanted an old car. I also have a 1957 Nash metropolitan and spouse has a 1965 Corvette Stingray.
Welcome to the Quilting Board!
It's a 1967 Pontiac Firebird 400 convertible.
Bought it last year in August. I sold my 2001 Trans Am because I wanted an old car. I also have a 1957 Nash metropolitan and spouse has a 1965 Corvette Stingray.
I'd spray the back with febreze and put it flat in a big plastic bag for a few hours, then just lay it flat to dry. I'm betting the smell is the smell of the stuff it's made of, and no longer than fabric lays on a cutting board that it would not transfer to it. I love your car also.. I have a 1972 VW Beetle that I'm re-doing and a 1964 Meyers Manx.
I'm interested to know if the vinegar and airing it helped. Were you able to to that today?
I hope you can get the smell out...some types of materials sure do stink...wish they could figure out how to use different components to avoid this issue!!!
Smelly mats have been discussed before. I have one too. It finally quit smelling after about 8 months.
It was so powerful it made me sick and gave me headaches. Nothing worked for me, it just had to disapate on it's own. Mine is an olfa.
I don't know if the mat in question if an Olfa, but here they admit to the stinky problem and have a suggestion as to how to deal with it:
"How do I reduce the strong plastic smell from my new rotary mat?
Due to production and distribution, a new OLFA rotary mat can emit an odorous smell that some people are sensitive too. To overcome this smell, we suggest that the mat be wiped down with a solution of equal parts lukewarm water and white vinegar, then let it set for five minutes. Afterwards, rinse off the mat and towel dry. Repeat as needed."
It's a shame that this issue isn't remedied at their plant so we don't have to suffer the consequences. Hope this helps.
I bought a folding cutting mat at BigLots. I thought I had gotten such a great deal. It smelled of skunk when I opened it. I let it air out for two weeks - it still smelled. It is back at BigLots and still on the shelf. If someone has a sure fire method to get the smell out, I would be thrilled to go back and buy it again. Good luck!
I bought the same mat at Wally world and it, too, smelled like crazy. I'm happy to report that after about 6 months the smell is went away.
Even if you manage to get the smell out of the mat, Email and complain about it. If enough people complain and suggest THEY take the smell out at the manufacturing end, MAYBE they'll do it! Use this url and then click on customer service at the top of the page and complain!

I need to use this from C#, so I've written a C++/CLI wrapper DLL around the class. I'm a little stuck on the method above, as I'm not sure how I can pass a byte buffer from C# and convert it to a vector<char>.
My understanding of C# isn't really up to scratch, but I believe a byte[] type is similar to std::vector<char>?
Any help is appreciated!

Playoff Prestige Short Prints
Okay, after opening quite a bit of this product, and doing research, here's my educated guess as to what the [URL="http://www.shortprints.com/index.cfm?page=set&sporttypeid=1&yearselected=2008&setselected=117"]10 short prints are for 2008 Playoff Prestige.[/URL]
I don't think Kenny Phillips is an SP. I pulled 2 out of 6 boxes and there are a few listed on eBay.
It might be #189 Reggie Smith
That stinks. I was hoping Kenny Phillips IS a SP as that is the only one that I have from that list.
Yeah, this list is not 100% accurate at this moment, I'm trying to track listings on Ebay and I had not seen any Kenny Phillips yet, but I'll update the list as I figure out who they are, but I'd say this list is about 80% correct sp far. Thanks for the info. I've asked Donruss for the list, but they'll only give it to Beckett, who will then post it on their web site in a few weeks.
IMO the only ones I would feel sure about being SP are 110 Chauncey Washington, 116 Chris Long, 121 Dan Connor, 139 Felix Jones, 142 Harry Douglas, 148 Jed Collins, 155 Jordy Nelson, 166 Kevin Smith, 177 Matt Flynn. I pulled the C. Long and Connor but all others eluded my case. I was short 5 others but acquired them easily for about 2 bucks each. Sedrick Ellis, Paul Hubbard, Mark bradford, Chad Henne, and Fred Davis
So were not thinking McFadden is a SP?
I pulled a Mcfadden in my case. I was suprised Jake Long wasn't in the set.
It's good that McFadden and Long aren't SPs. Their stuff goes for enough already.
I don't believe Jake Long is in the set at all. Beckett has him listed as card #201 but haven't seen any listed. It is pretty bad that they omitted the #1 pick in the draft.
McFadden is definitely not an SP.
Yeah, I pulled plenty of McFaddens, definately not a short print.
I pulled a Kevin Smith today and it was in a pack with another rookie.
Okay, Kenny Phillips is not a short print, but Reggie Smith #189 is. I'm feeling pretty confident about this list now.
I've updated [url=http://www.shortprints.com/index.cfm?page=set&sporttypeid=1&yearselected=2008&setselected=117]the list[/url] with recent sales pricing too.
A buddy of mine pulled a Felix Jones, do you guys agree he should move it asap before other products come out and take attention away from the SP's or do you think set collectors will pay more as these cards find permanent homes and dry up?
He is a hard one to say. He is with a popular team and could get good playing time. If it was one of the lesser known I would say definately dump it. I got the Long, Connor , and Reggie Smith. Only holding the Chris Long for PC.
I would say sell now. The card is averaging right around $50 on ebay. I don't see it getting much higher and will likely go down, just like the rest of the SP's from this set, once newer stuff starts coming out.
Only reason to hold on is for PC stuff or if you got a hunch on the next AP or Patrick Willis
*cough* Kevin Smith *cough*
my list was correct
Beckett released the Short Prints and they're exactly as I predicted. Perhaps my list prompted them releasing it this early, last year they waited almost a month.

Riddle me this? I've got the Xtra points /999 Jordy Nelson (Card #155 Packers). How will this differ pricewise from his base SP RC?

Last years where .2 X short print.

So, I should have held the Kevin Smith. Well its on the bay right now.
they are already dropping in price, so i would throw up whatever sps you have. last week the matt flynn i have was selling mid to upper 20's, now its down to mid to upper teens. not real sure on the others since i had no interest in buying any of them, and obviously didn't pull any of them.
Question about the Short prints:
Why are the short prints with the "extra points" less than the regular short print rookie cards, even though the extra points are numbered? Does anyone understand my question?
There could have been more produced even though they are numbered, or the fact that they are the SP is the true rc instead of an insert like the Xtra point cards.

the SP's are in shorter supply then the regular rookies( harder to complete a set).
all of the Xtra points have the same print run, so nothing special about them.
