BT Sport has confirmed a three-year deal to broadcast the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) in the UK from August, adding to its armoury of sports rights.
The deal includes live coverage of all UFC events plus, in a first for British television, original programming focused around the burgeoning UK UFC activities.
Garry Cook, the executive vice president and managing director of UFC EMEA, said: "UFC athletes are the most committed and dedicated in the world of sport and this new relationship will help people gain a more in depth understanding of the sport and our brand.
"This agreement is a landmark step in UFC's development in the UK as it will increase our exposure to a much wider and more mainstream sporting audience. It means that the UK joins USA, Canada, Australia and Brazil as one of our largest TV broadcast markets."
Cook added: "BT Sport certainly shares our vision for the premium quality broadcast of elite performance sport for our UK audience and we're very excited about the strategic partnership we've entered into. We look forward to working alongside them and showing a wider fan base how exciting and engaging the UFC is."
BT Sport chief Simon Green said: "We've said BT Sport will offer a wide range of sports that appeal to different audiences and we know that UFC has a huge, committed fanbase in the UK and Ireland and we hope they will be excited about our plans to develop the coverage of the sport."
BT Sport is also poised to confirm a multi-year deal to broadcast the MotoGP world championship from 2014 onwards, taking the rights from the BBC.
Ahead of its launch this summer, BT Sport has already assembled a rights portfolio which includes live Premier League soccer, exclusive rights to top-flight English rugby and a significant bundle of WTA tournaments. It has also inherited a selection of rights currently held by ESPN UK as part of its acquisition of the channel in February.

Definition of cycad
: any of an order (Cycadales) of dioecious cycadophytes that flourished especially during the Jurassic and are represented by four surviving families of palmlike tropical plants
Did You Know?
A cycad is a tropical palmlike evergreen plant. Cycads flourished especially during the Jurassic and are represented by four surviving families. Cycads have crowns of large, feathery compound leaves and cones at the ends of their branches. Some have tall, unbranched trunks; others have partially buried stems with swollen trunks. Slow-growing cycads are used as ornamental conservatory plants, but some survive outdoors in temperate regions. The stems of some cycads yield starch that is edible if thoroughly cooked. The young leaves and seeds of others also are edible.
Origin and Etymology of cycad
New Latin Cycad-, Cycas, genus name, from Greek kykas, manuscript variant of koïkas, accusative plural of koïx, a kind of palm
First Known Use: 1845

Saturday afternoon Janice and Mike Siron, left, and Lloyd Dunn, all of Sedalia, look over a three-wheel Harley-Davidson owned by Dave and Lori Jordan from Lake Ozark. The Sirons and Dunn were attending Yeager's Cycle Sales, Inc., 60th birthday celebration. "It's a heart throb, that's what it is," Dunn said of the bike. Janice Siron said she loved the alligator skin seat cover.
Yeager's Cycle 60th birthday celebration began at 11 a.m. Saturday and by 12:30 p.m. the parking lot on South Limit Avenue was filled with bikes. Former owner, Rick Yeager, said his father Jim Yeager started the business in 1956. He expected 500 to 600 people to come through for the celebration. Yeager said he sold the business eight years ago to his cousin Larry Yeager. "We're the third generation family owned business … I'm so amazed and so proud that a business can exist that long under one family's management," he noted. "It can only be done because of our great customer base."
Full Moon Band performs Saturday afternoon at Yeager's Cycle 60th birthday celebration. The all-day event featured Full Moon Band and Tobacco Row, food, beer, games, prizes, and a photo booth. People attending the event came from Kansas City, Lake Ozark, Jefferson City and as far away as Eminence in southeast Missouri.
A Harley-Davidson motorcycle named "Widow Maker" owned by Dave and Lori Jordan, of Lake Ozark, was one of many bikes displayed Saturday at Yeager's Cycle 60th birthday celebration. "We love motorcycles," Rick Yeager, former owner, said. "That's the thing that's made the business a success through the years, is we live and breath the motorcycle business."

Crane being removed from construction site of Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts
ORLANDO, Fla. - Channel 9 was there Friday as crews began to remove the tower crane from the site of Orlando's new Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts.
The removal of the crane means the major, heavy exterior work is done. Channel 9's Kathi Belich said it also means more jobs as more crews turn to the work being done inside the performing arts center.
Dismantling the 240-foot by 240-foot crane is a huge operation in and of itself, and it's being done very carefully, said Belich.
The area is restricted right now as workers walk precariously on the crane and lower one-ton pieces of it to the ground.
"The crane actually removes a section of tower itself and lowers itself section by section," said construction supervisor Ben Manning. "It's a big milestone. It shows we are nearing completion on the exterior of the building and the skin."
Now the only work remaining on the exterior is mainly stucco work and installing the rest of the glass around the lobby.
Crews have been hanging drywall and painting inside, as well as laying the flooring.
Once the construction work is done, the performing arts center employees will get in and learn the ropes of operating the building and add the finishing touches.
The grand opening is scheduled for Nov. 6. There's no word on when the first theater season will start or what the first show will be.

Her Smile
In the darkness of the world.
There is but one shining light,
An aspect so bright and pure,
Worth more to me than silver,
Your smile brightens up a room,
Bringing me in from the shadow,
it is all that I quest for,
The shining light in the dark.
Of all the things I cling to,
To all that makes me human,
Just a quick flash of your smile,
Is what I hold most dearest.

Gender Perspectives on Property and Inheritance: A Global Source Book
€ 31,99
Besorgung - Lieferbarkeit unbestimmt
Februar 2002
BeschreibungLegal and customary arrangements and practices govern women's rights to resources, such as land and housing. This book highlights women's unequal position in formal and customary laws and practices and the way in which gender relations affect mens and womens' access to property through inheritance. The introduction examines how gender relations define the ownership and control of property and the attention that the issue of gender equality has recieved in the development agenda. Five reviews from Latin America, Ivory Coast, South Africa, the Middle East and India focus on the disjuncture between law and practice in terms of womens' property and land rights, inheritance, access to resources, marriage and employment. The contributors also reflect on the importance of womens' participation in decision-making forums and the need for womens' political organisation and mobilisation in order to redress gender imbalances in land and inheritance rights. The book ends with a large resources section featuring an annotated bibliography, a list of relevant organisations and Web resources.

It's always a difficult situation when a player goes down for the season as Mike Brown and Dusty Dvoracek did last weekend. As a fellow player, you have a very good idea just how hard they both worked to come back from their previous injuries. They both have the opportunity to play in the first game of the season, then suddenly they are back on the IR list. How frustrating can that be? Everybody on the team is wishing them the best and hoping they are back at Halas Hall soon.
But as professionals, these injuries are something that we need to move on from mentally. You always hate to see anybody go down, but it happens. Football is not an easy or a gentle game. None of us can afford to be worrying that the same thing will happen to any of us. In my personal experience, it's the times that you are being overly cautious when bad things occur.
The game against the Chargers was a difficult one. It was a big time game. Every game is a big-time game, but this one in particular was against the team that had the best record in the NFL last season. The atmosphere out there was amazing, pretty much like a playoff contest would be. Not only were the fans excited but the players, as well. The intensity on and off the field was amazing.
I did not get the opportunity to play this past weekend, but I did spend my time observing every play. That isn't a bad way to learn.
As a rookie, you've got to expect that the coaches aren't going to be calling your number very much, at least in the beginning of the season. Playing time is something that you have to earn. So to compensate for that, you try to absorb as much as possible as far as the techniques of the other players. You'd be surprised how helpful that can be in a player's development process.
One thing I definitely noticed was the increased speed of the game as opposed to the earlier preseason contests. The guys are more excited now, much more so than during the preseason. It's a whole other level that the players go to once the regular season has begun. What that tells me is that I need to work on my reaction time because if you're not in there immediately, things are going to pass you by.
The trip out to San Diego went fine, but the plane we were all on coming home had some sort of problem. I guess I heard later it was a mechanical thing. Anyway, we ended up back home at around five in the morning, not the best way to begin a new week.
The first game at Soldier Field is this coming weekend against the Chiefs. I'm not expecting anything different as far as the atmosphere between the preseason home games and this one, but maybe I'll be surprised.
Our roster is getting changed around some due to the guys on IR. At this point, I don't know any more than you do as far as whether or not my role will be increased. That's for the coaches to decide. I'm sure they'll let me know well before the end of the week if I'll be doing anything different.
Physically and mentally, I'm feeling really good and I'm ready to play. I remember what a great opportunity it is for me to be playing on this team, and I can't wait to make my contributions on the field.
Unlike in college, where players had football but also a full academic schedule, it's all football for me now. It's good to have the extra time to concentrate on the game. It makes the entire experience much more exciting. But there's also a lot more at stake. This is my livelihood.
I'm spending my time sitting back and learning all that I can. I'm doing that in meetings and in practice in order to learn the system and refine my technique. If opportunity knocks – if the situation presents itself – I want to be ready to get into the game and to take advantage of that.

Get the Glovers newsletter
21:13 21st November 2009
Yeovil Town grabbed a point from ten man Charlton Athletic at a wet and windy Huish Park this afternoon.Jonathan Obika had put the Glovers ahead after Sam Sodje had received a straight red card for hauling down Ryan Mason in full flight. However Sodje's younger brother earned his side a share of the spoils with a spectacular equaliser in the second half.
The first fifteen minutes saw both sides struggle to adapt to what was awful conditions. Constant rain and driving wind made for passes impossible to control and fluffed clearances.Charlton keeper Carl Ikeme was labouring to get his kicks to reach the halfway line as the Glovers looked to make the wind count in their favour.
Ryan Mason had Yeovil's first effort when he turned and fired a fierce shot into the side netting. Within three minutes, the Addicks had their first attempt, a shot that went high and wide from Grant Basey.Charlton looked to get back into the game but found keeper Alex McCarthy equal to everything they threw into the area.
On twenty eight minutes, deja vu struck. As last week, a Spurs loanee was sent clear only to be brought down and the defender given a straight red. This time it was Mason who broke through and Sam Sodje scythed him down. As last man, referee Hooper had no option but to dismiss the player.
Visiting manager Phil Parkinson sent on Miguel Angel Llera and sacrificed striker Dave Mooney straight afterwards.Yeovil looked to press forward and forced a corner that Scott Murray floated onto the roof of the net.
Therry Racon had a half chance for Charlton but saw his half volley flash well wide.Just as half time approached came the breakthrough. An Ikeme goal kick was blown back towards his own goal, the ball was slipped through to Jonathan Obika who steadied himself before sliding it past Ikeme.
Yeovil didn't want half time to come and an enterprising move from a McCarthy goalkick involving Stefan Stam and Murray almost created a second but the ball was cleared for a corner.There was an early warning two minutes in when Llera's free kick was parried by McCarthy to Sodje who fired home only to be denied by the linesman's flag.
The second half began in worsening conditions and to be frank, the man advantage was more than cancelled out by the wind. McCarthy, always reliably accurate and long with his place kicks, was finding it difficult initially to cope.Veteran defender Christian Dailly earned himself a yellow for pulling back Obika but the chance came to nothing.
Within four minutes, the Addicks were level. A long ball from defence was controlled by Akpo Sodje who cut inside and hit a beauty into the top right hand corner past a despairing McCarthy.The Nigerian striker almost added a second five minutes on but saw his rising shot brilliantly saved by McCarthy.
The pitch was offering no option for Yeovil to continue their fine passing game yet any thought of hitting it high and long made success improbable too. Manager Terry Skiverton swapped Dean Bowditch for Andy Welsh to give another option up front.Sodje saw another effort tipped over the bar by the on-loan Reading keeper and Lloyd Sam pulled his shot wide as he broke through on goal.
Skiverton took off the other winger Murray replacing him with Terrell Forbes.Yeovil were by now defending with their lives and a desperate last-ditch block from Craig Alcock prevented an almost certain goal with a quarter of an hour left.
Twice more McCarthy was called into action to deal with wickedly inswinging crosses as the Glovers remained on the back foot while trying to break out in between. One such break offered a chance to Jean-Paul Kalala whose shot from thirty yards flew wide of the goal.With five minutes left, Yeovil got their final opportunity when keeper Ikeme failed to prevent the ball going for a corner. Mason floated the ball in and Shaun MacDonald glanced his header wide.
The visitors pressed for the winner as unbelievably conditions got worse and forced three late corners but all the pressure came to nothing as both sides came away with a point.
The Green and White Army will have fewer miles to travel on the road during the 2017/18 Sky Bet League Two campaign.
Town will visit Weymouth in a pre-season friendly on Tuesday, July 11th (7.45pm kick-off).
Town will visit Tiverton Town in a pre-season friendly on Saturday, July 29th (3pm kick-off).
Town will play Bristol City in a pre-season friendly at Huish Park on Saturday, July 15th (3pm kick-off).

The newspaper quoted Valentine as saying after Thursday's 3-2 victory over Detroit that an Associated Press story from Cincinnati confirming the trade was "accurate but not official." The Rangers and Reds have scheduled news conferences today to formally announce the trade, the Times Herald reported. Valentine's confirmation ended several days of speculation over when and where Bell was to be traded. On Thursday, anticipation mounted and rumors flew that the trade would be announced before Thursday night's game. Earlier in the day Bell said he flew to Cincinnati and agreed in principle on a contract with the Reds. Reds player-manager Pete Rose evidently thought the trade was completed late Thursday night when he told Walker he was part of a trade for Bell. However, Reds General Manager Bill Bergesch later said the trade wasn't completed, and he'd have no further comment until noon today. The Rangers also declined comment. "It was probably a little premature," Bergesch said. "Duane is still a Red at this moment. It's unfortunate; maybe it will still work out." Neither Walker nor Bell knew anything about the apparent holdup preventing the 33-year-old third baseman from going to the team his father played for in the 1950s. The Reds reportedly aren't the only team interested in acquiring Bell. "It's been up and down and ifs been nobody's fault,'' Bell said. "I knew that when I asked for the trade." Bell didn't arrive at Tiger Stadium for a game until 4:30 p.m. Thursday, and wasn't in the Rangers' starting lineup. He said he had been in Cincinnati, where he agreed in principle on contract terms and figured the trade was solid. "As far as I'm concerned, the contract situation with the Reds was taken care of in 15 minutes this morning,'' Bell said. "I don't know what the hangup was. I don't know what held it up unless it was the players." Bell reportedly is making $600,000 a year on a contract running through 1987 with an option for 1988. Bergesch spoke with Rangers officials by telephone during the Reds' 6-3 loss to the Philadelphia Phillies After the game, Rose called Walker into his office for a private talk. "He told me that I was going there and Buddy Bell is coming here," Walker said. "It's a good opportunity for me. With the Rangers, ITI get an opportunity to play and see what I can do." Walker, 28, has been used as a backup outfielder and pinch-hitter. He hit .292 in 83 games last season, but is batting just .167 in 48 plate appearances this year. Rose said he wouldn't comment on the trade until it's announced. Several minutes later, Bergesch told reporters the trade hadn't been completed and that there would be no further announcement until today. "Right now, there is no deal at this moment," Bergesch said. Valentine's confirmation ended what has been an agonizing process for Bell. "If I ever had to go through that again, I'd kill myself,'' Bell said. "That's how difficult it's been." Bell is in his 13th major-league season, having split time between the Cleveland Indians and the Rangers. He hit .315 last season with 83 runs batted in, but has slumped badly this season, hitting .235.

Hi « Ald ZI ITI JSG No progress Baseball talks recessed until Monday NEW VORK (AP) — Cross off three more days in the countdown toward a possible baseball strike. Despite a players' union decision to walk out on Aug. 6 if a new collective bargaining agreement hasn't been reached, the major league owners and players won't sit down together again until Monday. The owners' Player Relations Committee and officials of the Major League Players Association reported little, if any, progress after three hours of negotiations Thursday. It was their first meeting since the players set the deadline on Monday. "If you're asking me whether we made significant progress, the answer is no. If you're asking whether the clock is ticking, the answer is yes," concluded Don Fehr, acting executive director of the union. Lee MacPhail, president of the management committee, was slightly more positive. "It's hard to measure progess because we've got to do lot of work in a lot of areas, but we accomplished some of that today," he said. Tfie negotiators said they dealt with a list of 25 noneconomic issues and only briefly addressed their biggest differences, salary structure and benefits "We had a brief discussion, but there is still no offer on the benefit plan," Fehr said. "We reviewed a lot of other issues, not fundamental, important ones." The owners have proposed a salary cap, which the union rejected, and want to change the conditions under which a player is allowed to seek free agency or salary arbitration. The biggest dispute concerns baseball's television revenue and how much of it will go into the players' pension and benefit fund. Traditionally, the players' association has received one-third of that money. This year, that share came to about $15 million. But the value of baseball's new TV rights contract soared last year from $250 million to $1.1 billion, and the owners have resisted giving the players the traditional third, or about $60 million. "We have not made a specific offer on television money," MacPhail said. "It depends on how the whole financial issue is going to be resolved. To us, the economic state of baseball is the most important thing that has to be considered." Rain turns St. George's to tiger SANDWICH, England (AP) — Tom I Watson was in the mood to tame a tiger. . The Royal St. George's Golf Club course, known in calmer times as a ; par-70 layout of 6,857 yards, became •a rain-drenched monster during the ; opening round of the 114th British Open on Thursday and devoured 'many of the game's top players, I including Watson. ; "Seventy-two won't be that far I out," Watson said of his round. "This I golf course can be a tiger. On the first • round, I found the heavy rough and I • deserved what I got." • The tiger was reduced to a tabby, ♦however, by Irishman Christy •O'Connor Jr., the nephew of 1965 •Open runnerup Christy O'Connor. O'Connor ran off an Open-record seven consecutive birdies on the way to a 64 and a four-stroke lead. "I just tried to make as many birdies as I could. I tried to keep going the way I was. I never played safe," said O'Connor, who had IO birdies, four bogeys and four pars. He broke, by one stroke, the course record set in 1934 by Henry Cotton, who was on hand to welcome O'Connor at the end of his round. "Well done, lad," said the 78-year-old Cotton. "Did you play all 18?" Watson, seeking a record-tymg sixth British Open title, fared better than did a trio of former champions. After stumbling to a double bogey on the first hole, Watson played even-par golf the rest of the way, and pronounced himself pleased with his long iron play. Lee Trevino, a two-time champion, had it two under par after three holes, then took a double bogey on the fourth and came in with a 73. O'Connor's famous uncle, a boisterous, carousing figure known throughout Britain as "Himself," had some words of advice for his 37-year-old nephew. "He's a hero in Ireland, a very brave player with nerves of steel," O'Connor said of his uncle, a dominant player from the 1950s into the '70s. "He told me how to win the Open. He said you must be brave enough to attack the course, brave enough to be positive and not negative, brave enough to play each hole and each shot one at a time. "I kept that in mind.

One man is dead and another man was seriously injured after a shooting on Tucson's southwest side Sunday night.
Police responded shortly before 6:30 p.m. to a report of shots heard in the 1800 block of South San Jose Drive, near South Mission Road, said Sgt. Chris Widmer, a Tucson Police Department spokesman.
Officers found one man dead inside a vehicle, and a second man wounded in the desert west of the area, Widmer said.
The 26-year-old man was treated by Tucson Fire Department paramedics and taken to a local hospital with serious injuries, authorities said.
Officers were working last night to make contact with people in two houses near where the shooting occurred, Widmer said.
The Special Weapons and Tactics team were on the scene. When officers entered the houses, they found no one in the houses, Widmer said.
Homicide detectives were continuing the investigation.
No further information was immediately available.

I came across this very tattered old programme from a friend of mine here in Radstock.(Somerset)
His dad played in the Radstock Amateur Band and was on the organising committee for the two concerts in the Rectory Gardens at Radstock in August 1924.
I guess that it was around this time that the Band was at its peak.
Any readers of this forum have any personal reminiscences of the Band or similar memorabilia

The Hunt
The gang roamed the streets, on the hunt to find the juice. Their child-like faces showed a craving for this juice, to help relieve themselves from the stresses of everyday life. They looked focused, almost glued together like a pack of wolves out for taste of their first blood. They were all very different some tall, some short, some black, some white. They looked very peculiar being grouped together. They stopped outside the local corner shop. They all looked at each other and the eldest worked up the courage to go in.
"Hey bruv, ya got the money."
"What did I tell ya yesterday man, remember ya caused all that trouble."
"Christ, carl."
"Idiot." Another chimed in.
They all chipped in what they could earn from their worthless lives, then sent him off to attempt to get some without any I.D. They all waited and waited.
"Yo bruv, what took you so long."
"Ah, they didn't have any. The geezer was giving me dirty looks as well, some I told him where to go. Nah man I can't be bothered."
"What the hell!
"Aaaah, for god sake."
"You're the oldest one here, get something else. I want to get hammered tonight."
"Nah, I can't be bothered." some tugging and wrestling was going on before they all gave up with the poor boy, he didn't want to do it.
Then the second eldest eye's went astray, he had found his prey. The man had become distracted with the children's behaviour, he stood just outside the shop.
"What you looking at??" The boy exclaimed.
He chose to ignore this remark and carried on, but they jumped him like vulture's.
"Give me ya money.
The man tried his very best to fight the two or three of them that joined in with this young lad, all of them kicking and shoving. The eldest one had retreated already.
"Get off me, get the hell of me." The man yelled
Before he could cry out another word. The knife was plunged into him, straight in the heart. The all ran for it. The man's money, his pride and his life all taken from him. All in that split second.

House could barely speak as he stared down at the none-too-pleasant options Wilson had arrayed for him, vaguely aware that Wilson had moved from behind him to slide his desk chair around the desk and position it behind the place where House stood. His stomach felt queasy, and his mouth was almost too dry to move enough to form words. When he finally managed to voice a cautious, halting objection, his voice was a hoarse, barely audible whisper.
"Wilson… you can't actually be serious. This is… this is ridiculous…"
His protest was cut off in a startled yelp, as Wilson placed a heavy hand on his shoulder and yanked him abruptly and forcefully down into the chair – placing him at a distinct physical disadvantage to Wilson, still standing and thus, for the moment, towering over him.
"Stop stalling and choose, House." Wilson's voice carried a distinctly warning edge.
"Wilson, I didn't even…"
House gasped as Wilson grasped his hair sharply, jerking his head back, and closed his eyes, swallowing hard as Wilson leaned over him, resting a hand on his left thigh as he spoke quietly close to his ear – subtle warning shifting instantly to steely authority.
"This is not a joke or a game, House. You're not going to talk me out of this. We made an agreement, and you are going to honor it." He paused, edging nearer, tightening his grip on House's hair as he lowered his voice and continued. "Is that clear?"
House's heart was pounding in his throat, his hands clenched around the base of the chair in a desperate attempt to prevent himself from following his instincts to resist. He drew in a deep, shaking breath, every muscle in his body taut with the preparation to either resist, or flee.
Wilson slowly released his grip on House's hair, withdrawing to stand over him again, waiting until House looked up at him in questioning trepidation to speak with soft, matter-of-fact clarity.
"Unless… you just want to get up and walk out. That's an option, too."
Strangely, that option was more frightening and unsettling to House than the prospect of the punishment Wilson was about to administer. He considered rising to his feet and shoving Wilson away from him, insisting on the autonomy and respect he knew he deserved – or simply getting up and walking away, refusing to submit to Wilson's demands.
In the end… he did neither.
House knew that this was his last resort, one final attempt at regaining control over the disaster his life had become – even if that control was Wilson's and not his own. The conflict with Tritter, his near-death by overdose, the brief time he had spent in rehab, and nearly going to prison – all only served to prove that his own choices were not necessarily the ones that were best for him. At that moment, House was only sure of one thing in the confusion his life had become.
And he could not lose him.
"No," House whispered at last, eyes lowered in defeat. "No, I… I don't want to… to go…"
Wilson nodded in satisfaction, his hand returning to the back of House's head, this time in a gentle, affectionate touch. "Good. Now, choose."
Desperate to avoid the punishment Wilson was forcing upon him, House tried again. "Wilson… please just listen. I didn't…"
"House." Wilson cut him off again, stern warning in his voice. "That's it. You're not going to talk your way out of this with some lame excuse. You will not speak again unless I give you permission to do so. Just… keep your mouth shut, and make your choice."
House stared down at the items on Wilson's desk, a rising sensation of nausea swelling up from his stomach to lodge in his throat. The whole thing seemed so surreal, as if it was just some insane dream from which he would awaken at any moment, to find that everything was back to normal, and Wilson was back to his old, comfortably enabling self.
Unfortunately, the array of weapons laid out on Wilson's desk was unsettlingly real.
None of his options seemed to be good.
House jumped, startled, when Wilson's hand came to rest heavily on his shoulder, sliding around in a sideways embrace that was strangely comforting, considering the fact that Wilson was the one forcing him into this predicament. Wilson's voice was gentle, yet firm and warning, as he spoke softly from where he stood at House's side.
"If you don't choose," he explained patiently, "your right to choose will be forfeit, and I'll choose for you."
House nodded slowly, swallowing hard as he reached out a trembling, dutiful hand toward the items arranged on the desk.
The first was one of Wilson's belts, House suspected the very same one which he had embarrassed himself by freaking out over a few weeks earlier. His hand slid over the smooth, brown leather with only a cursory perusal, not really even considering it, as he moved on immediately to the next item.
It was a thin metal ruler, flexible but sturdy in his hand. House ran his fingertips along it's edge, finding it frighteningly sharp. He closed his eyes for a moment, fighting back a fresh wave of sickness at the unpleasant memories it provoked, as he set it back down on the desk, barely managing to suppress a visible shudder.
The next item in the row was a broad, flat wooden paddle, the kind that had once been a child's toy, attached to a tiny ball on the end of an elastic string. He had received many such toys during his childhood, always with the understanding that, when it inevitably broke, it would become the property of his father, instead. House bit his lower lip, his brow creased with a pensive frown, before setting the paddle down again.
House's eyes widened as he picked up the next option, a rather intimidating riding crop made of stiff, rough leather. He tested its weight in his hand, sucking in a slow, whistling breath as he realized that this was no toy made for make believe and found in your typical sex shop. No, this was the genuine article, intended to inflict actual pain. He winced slightly as he considered the damage such a weapon could do, in the right hands.
However, unlike the other items, House could only imagine the effect the crop might have – and that made his decision much easier.
His expression was solemn, eyes wide and apprehensive, as he silently raised the crop in his hand, holding it out to Wilson. Wilson frowned, surprised and troubled by House's decision. His head tilted slightly in confusion, he looked thoughtfully back and forth between the crop in his hands, and his quiet, subdued lover, sitting there in front of him, eyes downcast and focused on his hands in his lap. Wilson's voice was quiet, speculative, as he asked a soft, simple question.
House shrugged, anxiously licking his lips, avoiding eye contact. "It's as good an option as any, isn't it?"
"It's a… slightly more severe option than any of the others," Wilson pointed out, cautious concern in his voice. "House… are you sure?"
House nodded, still not looking at him, a slow swallow visible in his throat. Wilson's frown deepened as he glanced down at the crop again, drawing in a deep, shaky breath. He found that his hands were trembling slightly, and a queasy sensation was beginning in the pit of his stomach.
He really did not want to do this.
Why would he want me to use the most painful, damaging option I gave him? Why would he choose to let me hurt him as much as possible? It doesn't make sense. If the belt was enough to freak him out the other night... how can he be even remotely okay with...
Wilson's thoughts trailed off as something seemed to come together in his head. Unwillingly, his mind was drawn back to the night when he had first attempted to use physical discipline on House, only to fold like a Spanish fan when faced with House's reaction of dread bordering on sheer terror.
The sick sensation in Wilson's stomach intensified as he considered the other choices he had laid out for House, as well as the troubling conclusions he had reached on that fateful night -- and suddenly, the pieces came together in his mind.
A paddle... a belt... a ruler... all things that scare House more than this riding crop... maybe because... they're... all things that have been used on him before...
"House... tell me why you chose this," he repeated, his voice carrying a stern note of command.
House remained stubbornly silent, his eyes downcast, his jaw clenched in clear refusal.
"Stand up."
Wilson gave the order in a soft, quiet voice, wincing inwardly when House flinched almost imperceptibly, visibly steeling himself as he gripped the desk and pulled himself painfully to his feet. It was clear from the flash of fear in his eyes, the hesitation in his every movement, that House assumed the moment of his punishment had come.
Wilson placed a firm but gentle hand under House's elbow, guiding him slowly toward the sofa against the wall and motioning for him to sit down. Once House had obeyed and was looking up at him in apprehensive anticipation, Wilson sat down slowly beside him, setting the riding crop down on the floor at his feet -- deliberately placing it out of play for the moment. His words were thoughtful and deliberate as he met House's eyes with tenderness and concern.
"I think we need to talk."
House was silent, staring down at his knees, his hands folded in his lap in an uncharacteristic gesture of acceptance and submission. It was unsettling to Wilson how easily House seemed to slip into this unusually obedient mode -- and only served to further confirm the disturbing suspicions forming in his mind.
Wilson's voice was gentle but confident when he finally drew in a deep breath, and plunged into the difficult conversation he knew they needed to have.
"You chose the crop because... you already know what the other choices feel like. Don't you?"
"Yes," House answered with a decisiveness that Wilson knew to herald House's own brand of not-so-subtle sarcasm. "For no other reason than to satisfy my curiosity. My regular hookers are highly adventurous, but they always stop just short of hard leather objects that can actually draw blood and cause permanent scarring. Just wanted to find out what I was missing."
"House... I wouldn't ever hurt you that badly. And… this isn't... sexual, for me. You need to know that." Wilson's voice was quiet and thoughtful when he added slowly a few moments later, "And... neither was what I'm talking about. Was it?" When House was silent, refusing to confirm or deny Wilson's assumptions, he added softly, "We're talking about long before you were hiring hookers." He frowned, reconsidering momentarily. "I hope."
House was silent for a long moment before casually shrugging his shoulders, looking away as he replied, "Draw your own conclusions. Strangely, I don't want to tell my deepest, darkest secrets to the person who's seen fit to leave me in pain for..." He glanced at his watch, raising his eyebrows with a quiet huff of outrage before looking up at Wilson to conclude, "... yes, it's officially hours now. And who knows how much longer you'll feel like getting off on watching me suffer? No, sorry if I don't feel like sharing at the moment."
"Damn it, House," Wilson muttered in irritation born of guilt. He was frustrated and confused and utterly unsure what course of action to take at this point. He didn't want to go through with the punishment anymore, but he was afraid that letting House get away with his deception would only ruin what progress they had already made. "You think I like seeing you in pain?"
House pretended to consider the question before nodding slowly and replying, "Yeah, at the moment, that seems a safe assumption."
Wilson let out a quiet sigh, not speaking for a moment. Finally, he spoke just two simple words, filled with hurt and regret and resignation.
"House... why?"
House shrugged again, and for a moment Wilson thought he wasn't going to bother answering; but then, House spoke in a halting, subdued voice, tinged with an unusual vulnerability -- presumably due to the revelation of his childhood abuse.
"I just... wanted to be sure I... had them if I needed them. I... I didn't even take any."
"You didn't?" Wilson was incredulous, one eyebrow raised in dubious question.
"Count them," House suggested. "They're all there. It was just... just a... security thing. Just in case."
"That's... good to know," Wilson replied with cautious relief, nodding slowly. "That means something, House. It really does." His expression softened, dark eyes solemn and regretful as he added, "But... you shouldn't have gotten the pills at all. My methods would work, if you'd give me half a chance. You should have trusted me."
"How am I supposed to trust you," House protested, frustration in his voice, "if you're just going to withhold my pills the first chance you get, just because you're angry over something I did? That doesn't exactly work in favor of your trustworthiness, Wilson."
"I had no intention of keeping your Vicodin from you for any longer than it took you to get to work this morning," Wilson assured him with a heavy sigh, looking away in chagrin. "I only said what I did about making you wait to call your bluff -- to get you to admit what you did. I would never use your Vicodin against you as a punishment, or... or out of anger. The only reason I'd withhold your pills for any length of time is as a part of the plan you've already agreed to."
House was silent for a long moment, weighing the sincerity of Wilson's words. Finally, he replied, his voice quiet and uncertain.
"I'm not sure I want you to have the power to withhold them at all. Let me rephrase that," he immediately amended, looking up to meet Wilson's solemn gaze. "I'm absolutely sure that I don't want you to have that power."
"Well... I understand that, but..." Wilson sighed, his tone gentle but matter-of-fact as he reminded House, "... you've already given me that power. You agreed to this. If you want to change your mind, you can do that, but..."
"But if I do, you'll walk out of my life and not come back," House concluded for him, a note of bitterness in his voice. "Funny, how this works out so nicely for you. Leaves all the good cards in your hand."
Wilson was silent, neither arguing with House's assessment nor apologizing for its accuracy.
At last, House averted his gaze, swallowing hard. The resignation in his eyes, his slight wince as he opened his mouth to continue, made it clear that he was defeated. They both knew that Wilson had all the real power in this situation -- but they also knew that it didn't matter.
House was not able to fathom the idea of losing Wilson -- and he would do whatever he had to do to keep that from happening.
"I... I'm sorry," he murmured after a long, tense silence.
Wilson looked up at him, startled by the unfamiliar words. He felt tears spring to his eyes unbidden, and quickly blinked them back, fighting back the nearly overwhelming sense of guilt he felt, and steeling himself for what he knew he still had to do.
"I know," he replied softly. "And... I'm glad. It means a lot to me that you are." He was silent for a moment, before adding firmly, "You still have to be punished."
House nodded haltingly, biting the side of his lip as he looked uncertainly up at Wilson, no surprise on his face. "I know."
"Are you... sure you want it to be with this?" Wilson gestured down at the crop on the floor, frowning, hoping desperately that House would change his mind.
"Yeah," House confirmed with another nod. "That's my choice."
"O-okay," Wilson agreed with clear reluctance as he rose to his feet. "That's it, then. Let's get this over with."

Bane paused and turned, his eyes flashing dangerously as he glanced back at Melissa.
"Get up," he growled, looking back ahead of him as he continued to walk as Lazarus berated him inside his head.
"Yes, Alpha," She snarled back, reluctantly rising to her feet. He said nothing, fighting Lazarus for control as they walked.
"I'm sorry, Melissa," Lazarus muttered in her mind as Bane insisted on walking ahead, not waiting for her to catch up, "you challenged his authority. Stupid mutt," he said as Bane made a noise as though he'd been kicked in the side.
"I did it because if you challenged him and you got beaten down and killed where would that've left me? I'd have to fight the hunter alone, complete my plan to take down the coven on my own. I'd be left to walk into the sunrise on my own. Bane, you have to listen to Lazarus as much as he needs to listen to you!" Bane said nothing, and Lazarus sighed. Don't let this freedom get to your head, Bane, he warned the wolf, giving him another flash of pain to get his point across. Bane said nothing, and Lazarus was too tired of fighting for control to say anything either and they simply walked on in silence.
"Fine, I'm sorry for thinking you were more than a pathetic mongrel," Melissa snapped and Bane stopped dead, his hackles up, his teeth bared.
"Bad move!" Lazarus yelped, struggling to stop the wolf doing anything stupid.
"I had hope in you, more than what Lazarus did and you have done nothing but prove me wrong! You think you're better than me? You got it all wrong, pup." Inside his mind, Bane wailed mournfully. On the outside, he was still snarling.
"I was doing my job, just as you said. You made me look weak. The pack was laughing at me before for not having a pack, but now I can't even make you move aside!"
"You have your job and I have mine!"
"I'm sorry you no longer see me as anything more than a pathetic mongrel, but the way your kind and the way my kind handle conflict is completely different. He wouldn't have torn me apart, he was bluffing!" Lazarus wished the moon's influence on him wasn't so strong.
"I... oh go, I'll come back later."
"No, Melissa!" Lazarus protested, "it's only an hour til dawn, please, come back to the apartment."
"I'll be safe... don't worry."
"Where are you going?"
"I... don't really know."
"Then how can you know you'll be safe? Darren might still... look, just come back to the apartment. Please."
"Fine, Alpha knows best. Right."
"This isn't Bane talking to you, Melissa, it's Lazarus." he muttered, confused.
"I know."
"Then why did you call me alpha?"
"Let's get back." He frowned slightly at her dodging his question, but waited for her to catch up before moving again. She moved at a labored pace, trying her best to keep behind him. They walked like this back to the apartment until they reached their door. Melissa opened it for him and let him walk in ahead of her and he flopped on the floor by the piano again, waiting for the transformation back into his human shape to take him.
She sat on the couch, staring blankly at the wall before her, and Lazarus whined quietly, making Bane move around to sit in front of her. He rested his head on her knee and gazed up at her with sad eyes.
"I'm sorry," Bane mumbled, apologising as Lazarus urged him to.
"You're short-minded, you can't help that." She murmured, looking away from him.
"I didn't mean to snap. Please Melissa... I don't want to be seen as a pathetic mongrel by you as well."
"You have my friendship, pup, don't push it." She growled, still not meeting his eyes. He moved back, whining again as this time the transformation began to kick in.
When his cries had faded away, he sat up, rubbing his temples.
"Floor's cold today," he shivered slightly, looking around for his clothes. When he found them, he pulled them on quickly, tugging them around him tightly, "I'm really cold, are you really cold?" he asked looking at Melissa.
"I'm dead idiot, of course I'm cold. I'm stone cold," she said.
"Alright, alright, I meant colder than usual. There's no need to talk to me like that just because Bane's an asshole." The wolf growled inside his head, protesting weakly.
"Sorry, no, I don't get colder unless it's my death day. I only get warmer."
"Right," he nodded, still cold. Suddenly, he wished he had his big fur coat back. He walked into the bedroom and pulled the duvet from the bed, wrapping it around himself before he walked back into the living room, sitting beside Melissa.
"Are you okay?"
"I think so. Just cold. You?"
"Hmm apart from making the biggest mistake yeah, I'm fine."
"What mistake?" he frowned slightly, "you stood in front of me to try and protect me. I appreciate it, even if Bane doesn't."
"But I've just made you seem weak in front of the pack, you're meant to be showing your authority, now Albert will be even more cocky." He sighed and pulled his arm out from the duvet and put it around Melissa.
"I don't think he could be much more cocky, to be honest. Not unless he was turned into a giant cock... It'd be an improvement," he laughed slightly.
She shook her head slightly, deciding to ignore the comment, "you are quite cold. Normally you'd warm me up when you touch me but, you're not really doing anything."
"Mmm, I don't like it. I can tell me and this duvet are going to be friends, though," he smiled, "it's cosy."
"Best stay away from me then." Instead of moving away, Lazarus simply hugged her tighter and shifted to kiss her gently.
"I love you too much to do that," he mumbled with a smile.
"Is Bane listening, or is he asleep?"
"Do you want him to be listening?"
"I just want to tell him I'm sorry." He nodded and paused, frowning. Bane grumbled slightly, waking up. Lazarus' arm around her went limp as Bane came forward in his mind, but not his body.
"What?" Bane asked, using Lazarus to talk. Lazarus' expression turned to surprise as Bane's voice left his mouth. That's weird, he thought.
"Oh, I'm sorry." She mumbled, looking down as she twiddled her thumbs awkwardly.
"It's okay," he sighed, his arm shifted slightly and he moved forward awkwardly to try and kiss her on the cheek, "this body's wrong, how do you...?" he moved his lips, finally figuring out how to kiss her. "Well this is weird," he laughed quietly, looking around, "never seen in colour before," he mused before looking back at Melissa. "Anyways, you can have Lazarus back now."
"Wait, you're not a pathetic mongrel, I take that back too," she mumbled, suppressing her laughter as she kissed him softly.
"Thank you," he smiled.
"I'll never do it again; you can handle it from here." He fumbled another kiss on the cheek before his eyes went blank and his muscles went limp as he gave her Lazarus back.

I'm developing some software for a colleague, to run on (one of) his machines. I do my best to follow Good LabVIEW Practices, including using Version Control (SVN) to maintain my code. Hence my Project "jumps" from computer to computer.
I recently noticed an old problem re-appear, namely occasional Front Panel and Block Diagram labels appearing in a different Font Size (18) than I've set as the default on my Office Desktop and home Laptop (15). This was really irritating (especially having to find those wayward labels and "fix" them), forcing me to re-examine the Where and How of setting Default Fonts in LabVIEW.
This still appears to be a Dark Art, one (perhaps) involving LabVIEW.ini (and some undocumented keys, not present in the "vanilla" configuration file). There appear to be several such INI files, with LabVIEW.ini attuned for development, and an INI file in the Data folder of a built Executable for that Executable. But still, the values are bereft of documentation (i.e. documentation is conspicuous by its absence) and not everything is explained (like why some values are in quotes, what they mean, and how one sets a specific Font, e.g. Arial).
One thing that I, in particular, would like to see would be the ability to set the Font Defaults on a Project basis. For myself, I "own" the Project, and would want it to have a consistent Font (size) on all my VIs (unless I specifically decide to Emphasize something), no matter on what machine I develop them and when. If I have to set the Font Default on a machine-wide basis, then every time I develop on my colleague's PC, I'd have to (a) note his settings, (b) change them to mine, and (c) remember to set them back when I finish. As such sessions are often an hour here, an hour there, this "machine-centric" setting becomes a nuisance fast.
I recently had the opportunity to discuss this with an NI Applications Engineer, who assisted me in finding (some of) the obscure references to Font Setting Tricks. I noted that a lot of what the Community knows seems to come from "Reverse-Engineering" NI's settings, and that some Documentation and Standardization (let's get away from designating Fonts as "1", "2", or "3", which have no intrinsic meaning, please) would be a good idea. Hence this LabVIEW Idea.
Bob Schor
Thanks, Darren. Judging by postings in LAVA and on the Forums, this has been a sore point for years ...
Yep, this bit me not a long time ago. After moving our project to another laptop, the fonts were horrible! I am happy this is in dev now...

Rush University Medical Center, Chicago, IL
INTRODUCTION: Cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) leak has been reported as a cause of pleural effusion. CSF leaks are typically caused by incidental or surgical trauma. Fistulas may result in rapid accumulation of large effusions due to the relative positive pressure of the spinal fluid in comparison to the negative intrapleural pressure. Beta-2 transferrin has been shown to have a high sensitivity and specificity for documenting CSF leak, and it has been used as a diagnostic tool in pleural effusions.
CASE PRESENTATION: We describe a case of a 71-year-old-man who presented with a massive pleural effusion associated with dyspnea. The effusion was discovered on chest radiograph 17 days after a posterior cervical decompression of C3-C6 spinal stenosis performed for progressive myelopathy. Initial thoracentesis was performed both therapeutically and diagnostically. Pleural fluid analysis results are shown in Table 1. Subsequent chest tube drainage was performed concomitantly with closed pleural biopsies. Biopsy pathology was consistent with nonspecific inflammation and tissue cultures were negative. Once the effusion was drained and the patient's dyspnea improved, the chest tube was removed. Following the patient's clinical improvement and discharge to a skilled nursing facility the positive pleural fluid beta-2 transferrin result became available, suggesting a communication between the CSF and the pleural space.
DISCUSSIONS: CSF-pleural fistulas have been shown to result in large pleural effusions. Surgical procedures in the upper thorax or in the paravertebral area of the upper thoracic region of the spine have been associated with such leaks. To our knowledge there have been no previously reported cases following a procedure performed at the C3-C6 level. The typical fluid description for a CSF-pleural fistula effusion has been clear, with low nucleated cell count, and transudative range protein. There have been prior case reports with exudative range fluid values and varying cell counts. It has been previously postulated that coexisting pleural processes may influence the composition of the fluid. Beta-2 transferrin is a transferrin isoform unique to the CSF and inner ear perilymph fluid. It is believed that the desialation of the more ubiquitous isoform beta-1 transferrin occurs only by the action of cerebral neuraminidase. Beta-2 transferrin has been shown to have a high sensitivity and specificity for detecting CSF leaks in the setting of head trauma, but the test characteristics are unknown for CSF-pleural fistulas as the literature is limited to case reports.
CONCLUSION: We have described what we believe to be a CSF leak complicating a cervical spine procedure. This leak resulted in a rapidly accumulating exudative and eosinophilic effusion. The considerable rarity with which CSF-pleural fistulas occur requires a high index of suspicion for this complication in the proper clinical setting. Although typically described as clear transudative fluid collections, CSF-pleural fistula effusions have been reported to have varying qualities on fluid analysis. Beta-2 transferrin has been used for the detection of CSF in a pleural effusion. There are case reports of confirmed CSF-pleural fistula effusions with documented negative beta-2 transferrin. However, there has been no report of a documented false positive test. Our patient's effusion resolved with chest tube drainage and was therefore not evaluated further. Beta-2 transferrin may be a useful tool in the diagnosis of CSF-pleural fistulas. Treatment should be tailored to the individual patient. Drainage of the effusion alone or surgical correction may be needed. Patients should be monitored closely for signs of central nervous system sequelae, including meningitis, during their recovery.
