Retailer Apparently Will Offer 5,000 Titles as Part of Free-Shipping Loyalty Program
By Todd Spangler -- Multichannel News, 1/30/2011 8:02:16 AM
Amazon.com appears to be readying a service that would make 5,000 movies and TV shows available to watch instantly -- for no extra charge -- to members of the online retailer's $79-per-year Prime free-shipping membership program.
The service would provide "unlimited, commercial-free, instant streaming of 5,000 movies and TV shows" with content similar to what is available through Netflix's streaming component, according to a report by consumer technology blog site Engadget. Amazon's service, though, would be limited to standard-definition video.
Amazon Prime is a membership program that provides free two-day shipping as well as one-day shipping for $3.99 per item on certain purchases.
Currently Amazon offers a selection of more than 75,000 movie and TV show rentals or purchases through PCs, Microsoft's Xbox 360 and connected-TV devices, including those from TiVo, Samsung, Sony, Panasonic, Vizio and Roku.
The instant-streaming service from Amazon would add to the growing amount of premium video content available online under a subscription plan.
Leading the pack is Netflix, which has experienced phenomenal growth over the last year, ending 2010 with just over 20 million subscribers. The company is trying to shift from predominantly shipping DVDs by mail to less-costly digital delivery over the Internet.
Meanwhile, Hulu, the Internet TV service jointly owned by NBCUniversal, Walt Disney Co. and News Corp., has been mulling a shift in strategy "recasting Hulu as an online cable operator that would use the Web to send live TV channels and video-on-demand content to subscribers," the Wall Street Journal reported last week.
The company already offers Hulu Plus, a $7.99-per-month plan that offers all episodes of several primetime shows' current seasons and library content, accessible through various devices.
Cable, satellite and telco TV providers have responded with "TV Everywhere" offerings, such as HBOGo.com, that provide online access to material ordinarily available only on TV through a set-top box.
For its part, Apple reportedly explored offering a $30-per-month subscription plan geared around current TV content more than a year ago but failed to land any deals.
I welcome another addition to the subscription arena.... really need some more competition there.
Best to get Prime, when they offer it for Free or at a discount though.
I wonder whether trial Prime memberships or student memberships will get this? (If, of course, it actually happens ).
I've been an Amazon Prime member for 4 years--my 5th year begins on the 2nd. I buy so much stuff from them online that the $80/year works out to much less the $1 a package (for 2-day shipping) by the end of the year. It was a shrewd move on their part--I often search for the best price online for something and say, "Cool! This price is $12 less than on Amazon!" then "Oh, they want $15 to ship it..." . If they add video streaming on top of that it'll be gravy, just like Netflix Watch Instantly was, since I'd been a Netflix member since the year that they started. Now they just need to get players for it on TiVo, PS3 and the Xbox (they actually have a video download service on TiVo already). If they don't, it might give me an excuse to buy a Roku .
I'm very happy to see another big name step up and offer a Buffet style account as I am not a huge fan of the a la cart model.
That said, it will be interesting to see what they actually have available. If it is mostly the same as Netflix content, I don't think it will be worth it to me.

All signs point to Amazon.com launching a streaming service to compete with Netflix. However, its arrival may already be delayed.
Citing unnamed sources, The Los Angeles Times reported that Amazon initially wanted to launch its streaming service in early February. However, due to issues with getting the service up and running and the difficulty it is having acquiring content, the publication's sources say Amazon has pushed the launch back to as early as late February.
Reports of Amazon launching a streaming service have been surfacing for quite some time. Back in August, the company was said to be in negotiations with film and television studios to start bringing content to the as-yet announced service. Last month, it announced plans to acquire the remaining shares it didn't own of U.K.-based Netflix equivalent Lovefilm, prompting some to wonder when, not if, Amazon would bring a streaming service to the U.S.
The flames were stoked even more late last month when Engadget received some screenshots of what's believed to be the Amazon streaming service running. The screenshots indicate that the service has over 5,000 movies and television shows available, and Amazon Prime customers who pay $79 a year for free two-day shipping will be able to stream content from the service for free.
Assuming the screenshots are actually Amazon's streaming service, it's hard to say what shows or films make up the 5,000 pieces of content.
The Los Angeles Times' sources say Amazon is having trouble getting major film studios on board. The publication said that as of now, none of the major film studios have signed on to Amazon's service over concerns that such a deal might negatively impact physical disc sales. The studios are also unsure if Amazon will ante up the same cash Netflix has paid for content.
That won't help Amazon's chances of competing with Netflix, which has been able to bring all kinds of major studio content to its service. The company's offering has many modern movies, as well as classics, like The Godfather. Moreover, it has been able to bring its streaming service to several different devices, including the Apple TV and a slew of televisions, helping it see its subscriber base grow to over 20 million at the end of 2010.
Would love to see amazon vod come to ps3 and xbox, even though amazon hd doesn't look as good as vudu hdx, a little more competition would be nice
I was messing around with my Sony BDP-S770 this weekend after streaming an episode of Battlestar Galactica from Netflix and I decided to check out Amazon VOD as I've read that Amazon might offer a monthly program to give its members Netflix-style unlimited streaming ... see article for more details: http://news.cnet.com/8301-17938_105-20030003-1.html
I watched the Amazon VOD HD sample ("Superman Returns" trailer) and was blown away by the quality of the stream. It was definitely HD and easily as good as most Blu-rays. The audio was still PCM, although when I first connected to Amazon VOD a caption appeared on my screen that stated, "...your Sony device is compatible with DD 5.1...", so perhaps I need to adjust the settings on my Blu-ray player or Amazon plans to add 5.1 at a later date.
Overall I was very impressed with the PQ of Amazon VOD and can see Amazon taking business from Netflix if/when they offer an unlimited monthly streaming plan.
amazon's had dd 5.1 for years via my tivo hd.
Could be that Amazon didn't include DD 5.1 in their HD movie sample.
Yeah, I am excited if Amazon offers a buffet style plan as long as it's affordable, but in no way do I think it's going to be as cheap as Netflix. I picture it being at least $20-25/month, but somehow doubt they're going to be able to offer the new releases D&D as well....I don't think the studios will allow it at that pricepoint when they are really trying to push the 4.99-5.99 VOD model.
Still, in a hypothetical situation, if it is $20-25/month, and it has the new releases, I'll get it. Thankfully I have both a PS3 and XBOX, so I can get the best of most streaming techs (Netflix 1080p/5.1 and Vudu on the PS3, Zune and Amazon on the 360).
Heck, if Amazon is that cheap and has new releases, I'll keep the Netflix streaming but might just cancel getting discs altogether. I'm pretty happy with Netflix quality on the PS3, but I know that's the only device doing 1080p/5.1 at the moment (and only for select titles)
Hopefully we'll hear more about what Amazon is going to offer soon. I do hope they make it happen.
From everything I have read it will be included with Amazon Prime ($79 annually). So it should offer whatever they can license within that scope which appears to be the (temporary?) hold-up. Rumor was it was going live at the start of this month and now it's as early as mid/late month.
For that pricing I don't expect it to (strongly) compete with Netflix within an reasonable time frame. Netflix has such depth of titles that it will be hard to compete with out of the gate. Much like with Hulu Plus (they are supposed to reach 1 million subscribers this year).
I see them including a lot of the currently free pilot and first episodes (network stuff) like the recent Fairly Legal. Perhaps throw in one or two new/recent releases but mostly the traditionally worthless content they can't sell to anyone else.

We'll see. Amazon has some 90K+ titles streaming now (according to this), more than 8 times as many as Netflix (11K and change, according to InstantWatcher). Almost all of that is available on a rent and/or buy basis, with an insignificant smattering of free titles, mostly TV pilots, etc. It will be interesting to see how much of that 75K+ they offer for no extra charge to Prime members. Will it be as much or more than 1/8th of their current library? Will the selection be attractive? Will any of it be HD?
If they come out with what you describe it'd just set them up for a ton of bad press. I'd think that they'd realize that.

According to Amazon they have 15,459 titles available for rental. Of which many are free previews and or promos. Some titles are $6 alone and individual seasons of series $30 or so? Can you realistically expect them for free? Such that Amazon Prime's pricing wouldn't be increasing. How does one get bad press for giving away streaming?
If it was a service at $20-$30 per month I could see having expectations. To be included in Amazon Prime what do you guess their budget is per annual subscription for paying licensing fees? $10, $15, $20 per person? How many titles does that realistically get you?
Purchase Type
Any Purchase Type
Purchase (25,670)
Rental (15,385)
In this PR about their "Disc+ On Demand" (from early November), Amazon says:
Try this...
Roku states 90,000 titles available.
When I click "Movies To Rent" on their site I see the following list heading:
27,775 Results If I click "Movies to Own it gives me a grid of titles with this at the top:
31,092 Results (They say that there are currently 141 free items). When I click "All Movie Genres" the heading on the list is:
34,616 Results There's obviously a lot of overlap between things that you can rent and own and things that you only purchase (many of the very newest releases); note that the "all movie genres" count is about 7000 more titles than the "movies for rent" list. TV is a bit more difficult, since you can only purchase seasons and individual episodes (no TV rentals), click "All TV Genres" and you get the heading:
6,181 Results Of which 204 are free. I suspect those big numbers count the individual TV episodes.
Amazon's not giving away anything for free. That $80/year is as compared to Netflix' $10/month, aka $120/year. Now that does include no extra charge 2-day shipping for many items and reduced cost overnight shipping, but that price should attract quite a few people who, unlike me, don't do most of their shopping online (I visit Fry's and Best Buy only a couple of times a year and haven't been in any place like a Magnolia AV or Good Guys for probably 6 or 7 years). Amazon's been offering Prime membership since 2005; they must be making a profit from it, if not from the fee itself, then from increased sales due to cheap shipping. For at least a couple of years Amazon's actually giving away Prime membership through their free Amazon Mom and Amazon Student services.
Netflix only recently established streaming-only membership. Was Netflix giving their streaming service away for free before then? It's been there since early 2007. Amazon's bargaining position with the content providers, as a renter and seller of VOD titles and seller of discs, may be stronger than Netflix's. Who knows?
Also, what expectations did you hear me voice? My expectations are higher than yours--I think that the selection of content available at no extra charge to Amazon Prime members will be about on par with Netflix's offerings, with no new release titles and very few recent release ones.
Whatever--we're creating an off-topic rathole in this thread and there's really no sense arguing this. Soon enough we should know for sure .
Sorry, but you haven't disproved anything. Amazon clearly states 15k available (at this time). If you would like to disprove their number feel free to count them. I think you'll find the higher number includes items no longer available much like their product listings. Like title #114.
Amazon's not giving away anything for free.
Sure they are (if the plan goes according to rumor). Right now Prime is $79 a year. After adding streaming it's $79 a year. That's free (to all existing prime subscribers). My guess is giving streaming to the prime subscribers does two things. It gives them a base to start with and allows to them to offer worthless content - since it's a freebie.
Amazon's bargaining position with the content providers, as a renter and seller of VOD titles and seller of discs, may be stronger than Netflix's. Who knows?
Rumors are the delay is because of a lack of studio's agreements.
I will say the number moves faster than Vegas...

You still haven't provided any source for that claim. You gave me a link to a page about some particular title (with a ridiculous price that has to be a mistake) which does not contain the character sequence "15" on it anywhere. I've shown you where Amazon has said that they have 75K titles in a PR, which their shareholders could sue them for lying in; I've shown you where they say 34K+ movies and 6K+ television titles; show me someplace where they've said your number and then we'll decide which one we should believe. Interesting that you had to look at 114 of them before you found one no longer available. Stuff becomes unavailable from all of these streaming and download services every day as agreements expire.
Rumors are the delay is because of a lack of studio's agreements.
Well, you know how rumors are. All we have are rumors of when the plan was supposed to launch. All we have are rumors that they'll launch the service at all. Amazon has announced nothing and therefore speculating why they're late launching a service with no announced launch date is lunacy. They cannot be late until they announce a date. I suspect that they'll just add it without announcement.
Sure they are (if the plan goes according to rumor). Right now Prime is $79 a year. After adding streaming it's $79 a year. That's free (to all existing prime subscribers). My guess is giving streaming to the prime subscribers does two things. It gives them a base to start with and allows to them to offer worthless content - since it's a freebie.
Again, was Netflix giving away their streaming service for 3 years??? Cost of my two-out-at-time-Netflix plan before they added Watch Instantly, about $16 (+8.75% CA sales tax), cost after they added Watch Instantly, about $16 (+8.75% CA sales tax). They added one or two dollars after that over a three year period. Amazon's purpose of adding this service to Prime is probably the same as Netflix's seemed to be: to increase the number of Prime members.

Those are numbers of people granting those ratings to titles; tons of titles have no rating whatsoever, so the numbers have very little to do with the count of titles. They could conceivable been numbers of people giving those rating to a set of 20 titles.
what thread is this again?
Sorry--I've PM'd the mods asking that they move this stuff to the "Amazon set to give Prime members unlimited, Netflix-style video streaming?" thread.
I gave you three simply steps to see what the current number is at any one time. Right now it's...
Rental (16,584)
As far as #114 since the list was in Bestselling order I wouldn't expect to find too many of the non available titles at the top.

Yes, this discussion should be moved, I didn't see the redundant thread when I initiated this topic. Although, I think the discussion was relevant to this thread.
The reason Amazon and Netflix can seemingly "give" away their streaming services is due to the huge cost savings of shipping discs vs. streaming. It was Netflix who recently said their cost goes from $1 disc to $0.05 for a two-hour movie.

^ What he said. It's more of a pain to totally tear down and relube the gun than it is to just man up and clean it IMO. Also, I may or may not have convinced an old academy buddy of mine to clean his AR in the dishwasher. It cleaned it, but also took off the badge that was on the mag well. I'm not sure how the badge was on there, but it wasnt a sticker thats for sure. The whole gun was light gray. Looked kinda cool, but needed to be dunked in a bath of oil before running it. More trouble than its worth.
The picture is a knock off from an old Colt marketing campaign.
I would not do it if you want to stay married.

Hurricane Preparation Week
The annual Governor's Hurricane Conference starts today (mo) amid growing concern by weather officials that the general public has gotten used to not having storm problems.
Dennis Feltgen of the National Hurricane Center says we've not only grown complacent, but are actually in denial because its been 8 years since we've had a major storm roll through (Wilma, 2006).
Feltgin says the two major things to do are get your hurricane supplies in early - whether you think you'll need them or not - and to know what to do if you're in a evacuation zone.
We've got more information at the Florida Emergency Management site.

I am having my second in August, when my older one will be 2.5. I want a new diaper bag because while I like the one I have, it's never really been large enough for my needs. I tend to overpack but even when I try to minimize the thing is always stuffed and I'd rather have a roomier bag.
I pretty much have my heart set on a Ju Ju Be, but I'm not sure which one. At first I was dead set on the Be Prepared but I see a lot of people saying that it's too big for "everyday" and that they use it as luggage. Or that it's too bulky/heavy when packed to carry.
We don't do a lot of quick trips here. When we go out it's usually for several hours or all day. A trip to "the city" is about 20-30 minutes each way so I make it a point to do everything I need to do. Usually my husband or I will get groceries alone. Most trips are to the library (where we get books and they go in the bag usually) or to my sister's or in-laws after church where we visit all day. Truly quick visits - doctor, chiropractor, Wal-mart, I could use my smaller bag.
We only have one car so often the baby and I catch rides with someone, so keeping a backup bag in the car really doesn't work for me. I'd like something that can fit a laptop if needed but that is a bonus. My toddler is very spirited and I like to keep a lot of things in my bag for her to play with or look at while we're out and about to keep her out of trouble. I would need to keep a carrier of some kind in there too once the noob arrives.
Would the Packabe be sufficient for my needs, do you think? Or am I a candidate for the Be Prepared? Please no judgments about the cost of these bags, if you don't see the point that's fine, but this is what I'm interested in and would like some opinions from people who know the line. Thanks!
Mama to Elsa Louise: 2/10, 13lbs 8 oz and Oscar Allen: 7/12, 13lbs 8 oz
Hi, Ninetails,
I have a Packabe, which I really like, for me and my single 3-month old boy. I think that the Packabe would definitely be too small for your needs as you describe them. I fill mine up all the way with just a few diapers, a pack of wipes, a change of clothes, a blanket, and carrier. It would be hard to fit all that you would need for both your toddler and your baby even for just a quick trip. The bigger bag might not be as big as you think. It might be helpful to search out a store where you could look at the bags in person.
I have a BeAll which is touted as being one size down from the BePrepared and it was perfectly acceptable when my daughter was a baby but it's definitely too small now. The dimensions are not the best for things like snack cups. And all the JuJuBe bags are pretty heavy even with nothing in them.
I'm also looking at the Be Prepared for when my next installment arrives sometime in the next two months.
Beth, SAHM to the little french goose, 6/17/09 and my little panda bear 2/6/12. I nursed with low supply, domperidone and a lact-aid for 18 months!
By the way, BabySteals.com is hosting a sale on JuJuBe bags right now and until 9pm tonight.
I'm also a juju fan. I have the between and sadly find it too bulky and heavy. Just overall too much padding. But not able to hold a lot
Personslly I would get a juju for your cute little bag, and go for something more luggage/backpack like for an all day bag

Today's Daily Digit
A somewhat subjective rating of the day's weather, on a scale of 1 to 10.
Express Forecast
Today: Mostly to partly cloudy. A few showers? Highs: Mid-50s.
Tonight: Clearing skies, cold. Lows: Mid-30s to low 40s.
Tomorrow: Partly sunny, a bit breezy. Slight chance of shower. Highs: Mid-50s.
Our cold snap starts with a brisk day in the 40s and 50s today, perhaps even a few showers for some. Temperatures then dip into the 30s for some tonight, and for most tomorrow night. The farther north and west you go from D.C., the better the chance of touching that freezing mark tomorrow night. Too cold for you? All hope is not lost, as we may get to 60 again by Sunday.
Today (Wednesday): A few showers may come through this morning (40-50% chance) especially from around the District toward points south and east, with a trailing shower or two possible during the afternoon (25% chance). Mostly cloudy morning skies may turn partly sunny during the afternoon. But a breeze near 10 mph from the north-northwest keep things feeling brisk with highs only in the mid-50s. Confidence: Medium
Tonight: While evening skies may hang on to some clouds, eventually clearing skies should take hold overnight. That allows temperatures to sink as a cold breeze blows in from the west-northwest around 10-15 mph, sending overnight lows down to the mid-to-upper 30s (suburbs) to low 40s (downtown). Confidence: Medium-High
For related traffic news, check out Dr. Gridlock. Keep reading for the forecast through the weekend…
Tomorrow (Thursday): Temperatures are about the same as today with highs heading for the mid-50s under partly sunny skies. But it may be a bit breezier as winds from the west-northwest at 10-20 mph add to the chill. Can't completely rule out a sprinkle or passing light shower (20% chance). Confidence: Medium-High
Tomorrow night: Temperatures drop down another yet another notch under partly cloudy skies. We're talking lows in the low-to-mid 30s in the north and west suburbs, to the mid-to-upper 30s in the city and to the south and east. Confidence: Medium-High
We remain a good deal cooler than average Friday through Sunday, but with partly to mostly clear skies and precipitation chances less than 20%. Highs should warm a bit, from the mid-to-upper 50s on Friday and Saturday to near 60 on Sunday. Overnight lows show a similar warming trend, dipping to the 30s again on Friday night, but only to the upper 30s to low 40s on Saturday night. Confidence: Medium

Told that the FA Cup final between Portsmouth and Cardiff was decided by a goalkeeping error, any football fan unaware of the details would doubtless have assumed another calamityon the part of David James. Alas for Wales and his native Finland, the villain of the piece on this occasion was Cardiff's Peter Enckelman, whose failure to collect a low cross eight minutes before half-time led to the only goal, by Portsmouth's semi-final scorer Nwankwo Kanu.
James, faulted for the goals with which he lost Wembley finals for Liverpool and Aston Villa, did his work more confidently this time to collect a winner's medal at the third attempt. As ever he was served splendidly by Sol Campbell and Sylvain Distin, the central defenders in front of him, who were given plenty to do in the early and last stages of a game that never quite built on the momentum of the first half-hour.
Like West Bromwich six weeks ago, Cardiff planned to take the game to the Premier League side and worried them in that period with their confident possession. This time, however, Portsmouth's manager, Harry Redknapp, was more conservative, employing a five-man midfield, and once in fronthis team were able to play on the counterattack. They were comfortable until a hectic final few minutes in which the Championship upstarts were unable to fashion a lucky break of their own.
So Portsmouth's minimalists, having taken the Cup with five 1-0 wins and one by 2-1, will return to Wembley for the Community Shield against their only Premier League victims, Manchester United, in August and then set out on a European campaign for the first time.
For Cardiff, settled in the middle of the Championship for three successive seasons, the task is to move into serious contention for a place among the big boys; their manager, Dave Jones, would settle more immediately for some money to buy a player. Like many of their nine lower-division predecessors who had reached the final since the Second World War, the Welsh side had achieved little in the League. Although they must have been encouraged by Portsmouth's recent run and, especially, the one goal Redknapp's team had scored in their last eight hours' football. The Welsh following certainly had most to sing about until silenced by Kanu's piece of good fortune.
In the first minute James had to come sprawling from his goal to beat Paul Parry to a long diagonal ball, and 10 minutes later he only denied the same player with an outstretched leg. Almost immediately, the keeper was flat-footed and praying as Campbell headed out a cross towards Peter Whittingham, whose drive was deflected wide by a team-mate.
Unfortunately for Cardiff, their own goalkeeper looked less secure when tested. He escaped from his failure to hold Sulley Muntari's free-kick, and was let off again midway through the first half. Hermann Hreidarsson played Muntari down the left for a cross that Kanu controlled in typically nonchalant fashion, drifting past a defender and Enckelman before jabbing against a post when he should have scored.
Back at the other end in a contest of swift ebb and flow, Roger Johnson met Whittingham's free-kick with a header that was only marginally too high. Eight minutes from half-time, however, Portsmouth were undeservedlyahead. John Utaka, hitherto quiet on the right, cleverly made just sufficient room for himself to bend a cross past the left-back Tony Capaldi; Enckelman spilled it right at the huge feet of Kanu, who had a tap-in, just as in the semi-final. Johnson looked down at his keeper in horror.
Even then there was time before the interval for Cardiff's Kevin McNaughton to prod Parry's low cross wide and for Glenn Loovens, the Dutch defender, to find the net, but only after he had used his elbow to bring the ball down. It now suited Portsmouth with their extra midfielder to play on the break, which they did to good effect at the start of the second half. In a rare move of Premier League class, Niko Kranjcar's back-heel sent Lassana Diarra away down the left for a square cross that Kanu hit against Loovens, appealing in vain for handball.
Jones blinked first when it came to substitutions, withdrawing Whittingham to send on one of the youngest-ever Cup finalists in Aaron Ramsey, at 17 years and 144 days, and Steve Thompson soon followed in place of a tiring, ineffective Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink.
Redknapp replaced Utaka with David Nugent, but put him down the right instead of his more natural role through the middle. That suggested Portsmouth were happy with what they had. Cardiff's best hope seemed to be from a set-piece, though Ports-mouth's height in defence meant they were not as vulnerable as most to Capaldi's long throw. Loovens managed a header late on but the ball bounced down and up over the bar.
Wembley man-for-man marking, by Ronald Atkin
Cardiff City
4 Peter Enckelman The Finn, on loan from Blackburn, literally had a punchy game, some timely, others decidedly not, and his spilling of John Utaka's cross was responsible for the goalwhich denied Cardiff their hopes of the Cup.
6 Kevin McNaughton The prematurely greyingright-back, known as the Silver Fox, lived up his his reputation as Cardiff's most consistent player and he kept going gallantly, even when reduced to a limp nearthe end.
7 Glenn Loovens The Dutch centre-back, who was solid in defence for most of the time, can be deemed unlucky to have his excellent scoring shot disallowed in first-half stoppage timewhen the ball struck his arm before he shot for goal.
7 Roger Johnson The scorer of one of the goals which put paid to Middlesbrough, he almost showed Portsmouth how it was done too, with a couple of fine headers from free-kicks.
6 Tony Capaldi The Norwegian-born Irish international, renowned for his throwing skill, brought a few moments of anxiety in Portsmouth's defence with long-range hurling and was solid in the Cardiff back line.
4 Peter Whittingham The former England Under-21 man is acknowledged as the most technically accomplished player on Cardiff's books but it justdidn't happen for him here, as he was crowded out by Portsmouth's numbers in midfield and replaced after an hour.
6Gavin Rae The ex-Dundee and Rangers midfielder could not disrupt Portsmouth's command of the midfield, hard though he laboured.
6 Stephen McPhail The captain, used to battling hard when with Leeds, gave another full 90 minutes of effort and was the pick of Cardiff's midfield, even after taking a nasty blow in the mouth.
5 Joe Ledley The scoring hero of the semi-final win over Barnsley was singled out for special treatment and it put him out of his normal, confident stride.
8 Paul Parry Cardiff's joint top scorer proved a regular threat to Pompey's ageing central defence with his searing pace but could not quite add a further, crucial goal.
4 Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink Spent most of his time wide on the left flank, contributing little, falling over regularly and looking his age – he is 36 years old – before being assigned the benching whichwas overdue.
6 Dave Jones The honour of being the first English manager since Joe Royle in 1995 to lift the Cup went instead to Redknapp, but Jones can only be happy with getting to Wembley. His previous best in the FA Cup was a quarter-final.
5 Aaron Ramsey (61 min) The course of the game was established by the time he came on and there was little he attempted which changed things.
5 Stephen Thompson (70 min) Little opportunity to influence anything, as Portsmouth were in command by the timehe arrived.
6 David James Reliably howler-prone on the big occasions – errors cost his teams (Liverpool and Aston Villa) in two previous Cup finals – he got away with it yesterday when a mispunch left Glenn Loovens to curl in his disallowed goal just beforehalf-time. Little to worry about after that, though.
6 Glen Johnson Always eager, sometimes over-eager, to get upfield but spoiled much hard work by conceding too manyfree-kicks unnecessarily.
6 Sol Campbell At 33, clearly less than fully match-fit after nearly a month out injured, and his lack of pace was regularly exposed by Paul Parry'sacceleration, especially in thefirst half. But got his act together better subsequently.
7 Sylvain Distin Portsmouth players' Player of the Season lived up to that title. Was always on hand to lend Campbell support during Cardiff's spells of supremacy, and the central duo were in command of thingsafter half-time.
6 Hermann Hreidarsson The Icelander, at 33, laboured a little at times and was booked for dissent when he need not have been, but he proved a vital part of the Pompey defensive barrier.
6 Pedro Mendes Perhaps a surprising choice, he was deputed to patrol in front of the back four and did a decent job of it before giving way after 77 minutes to Papa Bouba Diop.
5 John Utaka The Nigerian enjoyed few opportunities to unveil his blistering speed but he takes credit for the cross from which Kanu scored the winner. A leg strain forced him off after68 minutes.
6 Sulley Muntari The Ghanaian had a comparatively quiet Wembley, just once going close with his left foot, but he had done his bit for the cause with that penalty up at Old Trafford in the sixth round.
7 Lassana Diarra In his "Makelele with pace" role he proved as hard to dispossess as ever, but his passing lacked its normal bite and he picked up a silly booking in added time.
6 Nico Kranjcar A little muted after an early second-half yellow card, the Croatian found it easier to get through the England defence at Wembley last year than he did here.
8 Nwankwo Kanu The long-legged Nigerian veteran with the perma-smile did it again. After hitting the post early on, he was there to poke the only goal when the chance was spilled to him, and until David Nugent joined him up front with 20 minutes left he excelled as the lone striker.
7 Harry Redknapp It has been a mixed year for Redknapp, with police investigations and a family death, so he deserved this. As David James said at the end," 'Arry's a legend, ain't he?" His substitutions were spot-on, too.
5 David Nugent (68 min) Hardly one of Redknapp's successes, he almost surprised everyone with an angled shot soon after coming on which demanded a fine save.
Also came on: Papa Bouba Diop (78) for Mendes; Milan Baros (87) for Kanu.Reuse content

I see little need to compile. Here is your code
(with 'l' changed to'j' to avoid confusion with '1'),
with times for the two outer loops:
num = 10^3
tab = Table[0, {num}];
corr = Table[0, {num/10}];
AbsoluteTiming@For[j = 1, j <= 1000, j++,
a = 0;
For[i = 1, i <= num, i++,
tab[[i]] = tab[[i]] + a/10;
If[RandomReal[{-1,1}] < 0, a = a + 1, a = a - 1]]]
AbsoluteTiming@For[k = 1, k <= num/10, k++,
For[n = 1, n <= num/10*9, n++,
corr[[k]] = corr[[k]] + tab[[n]]*tab[[n + k - 1]]/num*10/9]]
corr1 = corr;
{22.882292, Null}
{2.836433, Null}
Here are the corresponding times for reorgnized code
that gives the same 'corr':
AbsoluteTiming@Length[ tab = FoldList[Plus,0,
Total@Sign@Table[Most@RandomReal[{-1,1},num],{1000}]] ]
AbsoluteTiming@Length[ corr = Table[Take[tab,{k,num*9/10-1+k}],
{k,num/10}].Drop[tab,-num/10]/(num*10*9) ]
corr == corr1
Most@RandomReal[{-1,1},num] should be RandomReal[{-1,1},num-1],
but I generated 'num' randoms and then dropped the last one
to keep them the same as in your code.

Microsoft unveils Windows 8
BARCELONA, Spain – You already knew from the early "developer preview" of Windows 8 that Microsoft released in September just how radically different this version of the company's ubiquitous operating system is from its predecessors. But now that Microsoft on Wednesday unleashed a more complete preview version of Windows 8 — which consumers can get their hands on — we really are on the threshold of a whole new era of personal computing.
The stakes for Microsoft and the entire computing ecosystem are enormous. This new era is built around tablets as much as traditional laptops and desktops, and multi-touch as much as the keyboard and mouse. At the same time Microsoft marches toward Windows 8, archrival Apple is revving up a new version of Mac OS X called Mountain Lion.
And Apple has a huge lead in tablets with the iPad, a new version of which is expected to be unveiled in San Francisco next week.
VIDEO: Windows 8 now in public beta
PHOTOS: Scenes from Mobile World Congress 2012
STORY: Microsoft's future riding on Windows 8
For its part, Windows 8 provides consumers the flexibility to go back and forth between touch and the keyboard and mouse. And this cloud based operating system — Windows 8 is tied into various Microsoft services online, including SkyDrive, where you can store and access documents and pictures — is designed to work on all types of hardware.
"With Windows 8, we reimagined the different ways people interact with their PC and how to make everything feel like a natural extension of the device, whether using a Windows 8 tablet, laptop or all-in-one," said Steven Sinofsky, president of the Windows and Windows Live Division at Microsoft. Sinofsky calls Windows 8 "a generational change for Windows."
Microsoft announced the availability of the "consumer preview" at the Mobile World Congress trade show in Barcelona.
This version of Windows 8 isn't quite final but pretty darn close, and you can download it for free at preview.windows.com. I got an early look at it on a Samsung test tablet. (Microsoft says that to date the developer preview received more than 3 million downloads.)
Keep in mind that however far along, this is still a test version that carries some risks. Not all your peripherals or software drivers will be compatible at this stage, and bugs are to be expected. Microsoft says a report will be generated during setup to alert you to known issues. Moreover, the "beta" will eventually expire (and you can't retreat to Windows 7 or earlier versions when that happens), though that's likely to be well after Windows 8 actually goes on sale.
Microsoft wouldn't give firm dates and didn't reveal pricing or other details in Barcelona. But a very reasonable assumption is the fall.
So what can you expect? Highlights:
As with the developer preview, you notice the dramatic turn in Windows from the very start — even before you get to the newly designed Start screen. At your option, you can log in with a picture password, instead of the standard typed password, by "drawing" a chosen image with your finger on the touch-screen in a predetermined pattern. You can see notifications from Twitter and Facebook.
From the Start screen you can view the weather, appointments, contacts, and more — you get to choose how the information is organized.
Suffice to say it looks very different from your daddy's Windows. At the core of the new operating system is an attractive, customizable user layout called Metro, similar to what folks using the latest Windows Phones see, and based on colorful and dynamic touchable tiles of different sizes rather than standard icons to display information.
You can click on a Desktop tile to return to a more familiar Windows layout. You can pin apps you use frequently.
If you have a touch-capable computer or tablet, you can switch among apps, pan and zoom and get around through finger gestures. You can tap to launch an app, follow a link and so on. Swiping from the right or left edge of the screen summons system commands called "charms." You can slide to pan or scroll through lists and pages. A feature called semantic zoom gives you a birds-eye view of your system and makes it easier to navigate a computer with lots on it.
You can type with one of two onscreen touch keyboards, a full-size version with large buttons or a thumb keyboard for when you're on the go. The latter splits the keyboard on the screen and is designed for portable devices.
Of course, you can also plug in a physical keyboard and/or a mouse.
Each of the various actions has a mouse equivalent, and there are keyboard shortcuts too.
Microsoft will supply a set of apps, including a mail program containing all your accounts in one place (Hotmail, Gmail, Exchange, etc.).
Similarly a photo app brings in albums from the likes of Facebook, Flickr and SkyDrive. A people app consolidates an address book with contacts from Hotmail, Messenger, Twitter, LinkedIn, Gmail and so on.
You can also chat in Messaging with pals on Messenger and Facebook.
And a music app will connect to the Zune Marketplace. App controls are hidden until you need them. A video store will let you buy or rent first run movies and TV shows.
With the consumer preview comes the beta launch of the Windows Store.
It will feature free and fee-based downloadable apps, from Microsoft and various third parties including USA TODAY, demonstrated during Microsoft's Barcelona launch. At the event, Microsoft showed off a version of the popular Cut the Rope game for Windows 8. For now apps are free to try.
Eventually if you buy an app on one Windows 8 PC, you can sign into the store and install it on up to 5 other computers. Microsoft says the store will organize offerings into categories. There'll be purchase recommendations. But the store was not available in the days leading up to the consumer preview launch. The various Metro-style apps can take advantage of the live tiles to display info even when they're not running.
Though the new operating system looks different, if you open a familiar app such as Word or Powerpoint, it looks and works the same as before.
There's more. A new preview version of the venerable Internet Explorer browser IE 10 also arrives with Windows 8. It promises an edge-to-edge Web experience on the screen — with navigational controls that are concealed.
Microsoft claims Windows 8 won't put excess demands on power, leading in theory to energy efficiencies and better battery life on ultrabook computers, tablets and other hardware. Time will tell. And the company says that if your computer has the specifications to run Windows Vista it should handle Windows 8.
I'm impressed by what I see. But I'll still reserve judgement until doing a final review on an actual product. No matter how stable (and fast and fluid), given the nature of any early operating release I'd recommend most consumers wait for a final version of Windows before plunging forward. But if you're the least bit curious, and a little bit tech savvy, go ahead and take a spin.

Hoping to buld on a strong finish to the 2013 season, Raven tight end Dennis Pitta is looking forward to a 2014 campaign that will include something he was missing last year... his health. Pitta had a stellar season in 2012, catching 61 passes for 669 yards and seven touchdowns. That was the breakout year that had many prognosticators projecting him as a top five-top ten for 2013. When he injured his hip in July, it was clear that the bulk of his season was lost, if not all of it. Pitta returned for the last four games of the regular season and was productive, catching 20 passes for 169 yards and a score.
Pitta is excited about new Offensive Coordinator Gary Kubiak's system. "The system is set up for receivers to have big years and for tight ends to catch a lot of footballs. Owen [Daniels] has proven that over the years. Hopefully I can find a similar role".
Fantasy Analysis:
Unfortunately, new OC Gary Kubiak brought tight end Owen Daniels with him to Baltimore. Pitta should still be the main TE for the Ravens, but Daniels has the talent and already has the trust of Kubiak. So, it figures that he will steal some playing time from Pitta. That's the bad news. The good news is this... No team threw more passes to the TE than Kubiak's did in Houston over the past three season. Considering the Ravens don't have a wide receiver with the talent of the Texans Andre Johnson , the tight ends should see their share of opportunities in 2014. That definitely bodes well for Pitta and Daniels both.
Experts seem to be buying into the Pitta hype. In two recent FFWC Draft 'n' Go high-stakes drafts, Pitta was the 8th and 6th tight end off the board, going in the 8th and 7th round respectively.
I like Pitta as a top 10 tight end in 2014, with upside in Kubiak's system.

I was in a hurry for lunch. A member of my staff was out sick from work and I had just finished a presentation for some clients and missed my usual lunch hour. If I don't eat sometime between 11:30 to 1:30, I turn into a raging lunatic, and a lot of work still needed to be done, so lunch was going to have to be quick.
Usually when I'm in a bind for time, I'll swing by Jimbo's BBQ and World Famous Hotdogs. It's a family business, and they offer the standard light Southern fare—barbeque, potato salad, coleslaw, chips—but also homemade chilidogs. Jimbo's is owned by a local guy and he employs his kids, nephews and nieces to work the grill and counter. It closes at 5:00 PM, but is filled throughout the day with older folks from the area.
The older folks drop in, grab a bite to eat, and then sit around and chat for several hours. I've noticed this behavior also on weekend mornings, at places like Hardee's or small-town restaurants. It's a communal behavior. And it's always all-White. Some of the Blacks do it, but their youth are so feral and dangerous, the older Blacks have to have this communal practice in heavily rural areas or White establishments.
My grandfather used to do it. He'd go to our local diner and "chew the fat" with the old-timers for hours. He'd have breakfast with them, go home, and repeat for lunch. They'd tell jokes, talk local and national politics and share war stories. If a friend was sitting by himself, they'd call him over and have him join the table. I'd remember sitting there and not being able to understand some of the older men, their country accents so thick, it practically required an interpreter. But, I loved the idea of local men and women sharing common cause, no one was a stranger and everyone was welcoming.
Anyway, I drive over to Jimbo's. I walk briskly to the door, but wait to hold open the door for an elderly and frail woman using a walker. She thanks me and I follow her inside. She waits at the counter, unsure what to order and appears a little confused, maybe the lettering was hard for her to read. I ask her if she's in line and if I may go in front of her, she smiles and says "Of course, darling, you go ahead."
A normie SWPL is working the counter. He's wearing a soft V-neck t-shirt and cheap jeans. He's got an untrimmed blond beard and his hair is uncombed. I place my order and he repeats it aloud with feminine uptalk. Everything about him is indecisive and jerky. The SWPL is probably in his mid-twenties and the nearest college is thirty miles away. And it's a Wednesday. This will be his profession, working a chilidog counter and handing out plastic cups.
I sit down at a stretched long counter with single seats, it overlooks the parking lot. Half a century ago likely a "Whites Only" placard would have been displayed. It doesn't matter though, I've only ever seen a handful of Blacks in Jimbo's and they've always been "country Blacks." Country Blacks for Southerners are similar to the Magic Negro. They're respectful (for the most part) and share more in common with White rednecks—hunting, fishing and camouflage—than their animal cousins in the cities. Although I've seen less of them throughout the years.
I crane my neck and glance at the other folks in Jimbo's. They're all White older folks. The men wear ironed khakis or clean blue jeans, button-down shirts, leather shoes and one or two are wearing a VFW (Veterans of Foreign Wars) baseball cap, nothing newer than the Vietnam War. Their wives are with them and they're all wearing make-up, dresses or nice slacks. The men pull out chairs for their women and go to the soda fountain for their refills. They remind me of my grandparents.
I turnaround and look back out the window. A dilapidated and discolored Hondo Civic pulls in the parking lot. It probably hasn't been hand washed and waxed in months, or years, and the rear quarter panel has a massive dent in it. A couple lazily get out of the car and amble to Jimbo's. In an instant, I know they represent everything wrong with White Millennials.
They were likely in their mid-twenties, but I wouldn't call them adults, so I won't use the terms "man" or "woman." They were, for all intents and purposes, children. The girl walks to the door first and opens it for the boy, as I suspected she would. The natural world turned on its head, chivalry be damned—a term completely alien to them and unfortunately, probably their Boomer parents.
She is a natural beauty. Beautiful face, red hair and green eyes. She wore no make-up, sported a nose piercing and had her hair pulled into a ponytail. She wore a tie-dye t-shirt, raggedy jean shorts and boat shoes (Sperry). I spotted a faded Chinese script tattooed on the back of her neck when she walked in.
The boy shuffled in next. He had a grungy dark beard and wore a gray flat brim DC United cap. No one over thirty even knows what DC United is around here. He's wearing Ray Band sunglasses and baggy sweatpants, even though it's in the low 70s outside. He's also wearing dirty dark tennis shoes, with neon green trim—it looks like something small children wear.
He doesn't take his sunglasses or baseball cap off after he walks in. My grandfather, a Marine, would have slapped me upside my head; a man always takes his cover off when indoors. The boy also has his hands deep in his pockets, another no-no. As a kid, my grandfather would have pulled them out and said, "How are you going to protect yourself if you fall or need your hands?"
I swing around in my stool and pretend to watch the baseball game on a TV in the corner to keep observing them. Naturally, the girl orders and pays for both of their meals, she pays in cash. She also fills both of their drinks and carries their trays to a table. The boy takes his hands out of his pockets and now has them clasped behind his back. When he goes to sit down in his chair, he sits Indian-style in his seat.
I glance at one of the older men, sitting by himself sipping coffee, he cringes at the sight. We look at each other and we know. Is this the future? A weak, undisciplined and unworthy future. I see it daily. Something has to change.
Jimbo's got quiet when the boy and girl sat down. The twenty-something boy, sitting like a Kindergartener, sucked the life out of the diner. It allowed me to eavesdrop on the couple's conversation. The girl had vocal fry and the boy, like the counter SWPL, used uptalk. They talked fast, faster than any local, but I got the impression they were from the area. They chatted about meaningless gossip.
I slipped on my light jacket and dumped my tray. On my way out, I held open the door for an elderly couple and they thanked me.
As I was walking to my truck, I started thinking about a line from No Country for Old Men.
"It's the tide. It's the dismal tide. It's not the one thing."

Remembering Dr Victoria Henshaw [1971-2014]October 21st, 2014
In Memory, Victoria Henshaw: 1971-2014
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Dr Victoria Henshaw, who was our first international research fellow, and a great inspiration and influence on our work. Dr Henshaw is not only valued for her pioneering and original scholarly work but for her warmth and the generosity of spirit she brought to her mentorship and guidance of other researchers, including our own, while creating a new field – out of thin air. While there has been much scholarship on the 'culture' of the senses, Dr Henshaw's work drew attention to the practical, 'everyday' and 'lived' realities of smell as dimension of the built and ambient environment that has been largely neglected by more aesthetic, scientific and consumer-oriented work on the senses. Most directly, it was through Dr Henshaw's experiential and 'nose-to-the-ground' 'smellwalks' that her work was truly brought 'to life' and given meaning by the people, places and smells that inspired it.
Last January, we were privileged to host a visit from Dr Henshaw, who spoke to Ryerson's Faculty of Design students about her work on urban smellscapes and dropped by the lab to talk with our researchers about the social and pedagogical dimensions of smellwalks. Earlier that month, lab director Dr Jason Nolan and RA Melanie McBride had participated in a panel presentation assembled by Dr Henshaw on the pedagogical and socio-cultural dimensions of 'Designing with Smell' for the Design Principles & Practices Conference in Vancouver.

Building on Dr Henshaw's work, RA McBride and Dr Nolan are contributing a chapter about DIY curriculum and pedagogy for olfactory learning for Dr Henshaw's final book project, which is a collection of essays focused on designing with smell. In the spring of 2015, we will be organizing a smellwalk in memory of Dr. Henshaw (further details forthcoming later this winter).
Warmly, we remember Dr Henshaw's exuberant presence and the sincerity, integrity, inclusiveness and inspiration that guided her work and interactions. Above all, we can best celebrate her life and legacy through the direct experience of sensing the wisdom of the world that is right beneath our noses.

Obituary: Victoria Henshaw
Dr Henshaw's life and work are described in her obituary in the The Guardian:
"A town centre manager turned urban academic, [Henshaw] became fascinated by this element of the environment that she thought had been crucially overlooked by architects and planners alike. Her doctoral research involved undertaking "smellwalks" with a range of built environment professionals, including urban designers and planners, architects and engineers, in order to open their noses to the aromas of the city"

Toshihiro Shioda, MD, PhDAssociate Professor of MedicineHarvard Medical School
DirectorMolecular Profiling Laboratory
The Shioda laboratory is interested in how exposure of pregnant women to various types of stresses such as drugs, toxic chemicals, or malnutrition affects health of their children throughout their lifespan and even beyond generations. There is mounting evidence that exposure of fetuses in the womb to stresses may cause long-lasting damages to the mechanisms regulating gene expression in human and animal cells, resulting in increased risk of adult-onset diseases including cancer. If such damages are introduced into cells generating gametes (sperms and eggs), heritable disorders might emerge without involving DNA mutations. To detect and prevent such disease-causing, heritable damages in gene expression regulation, our laboratory has been developing human and mouse cell culture models of the gametes-generating stem cells. Our recently published study has established that our mouse gametes-generating stem cell culture model faithfully reflects gene-regulating molecular events occurring in the natural stem cells in mouse embryos, opening the door to examine effects of stresses on gene regulation, efficiently and in-depth without exposing pregnant animals or human subjects.

In vitro production of primordial germ cells from human and mouse pluripotent stem cells
Evidence is accumulating that in utero exposure of mammalian fetuses to various types of environmental stresses such as drugs, toxic industrial chemicals, or nutritional problems may cause adult-onset disorders that are heritable beyond multiple generations without involving nucleotide base mutations.
Epidemiological studies on human subjects and laboratory animal experiments support the existence of transgenerational epigenetic inheritance of acquired traits in mammals, which is a phenomenon firmly established to occur in C. elegans and also likely the case in Drosophila. However, the germline genome of mammals is known to be subjected to genome-wide erasure of normal or abnormal epigenetic marks followed by re-establishment of correct, sex-specific epigenomes. This process, Germline Epigenetic Reprogramming (GER), occurs in the Primordial Germ Cells (PGCs), which are the precursors of all germline cells. Whereas most protein-coding genes lose their epigenetic marks such as DNA methylation in PGCs during GER, recent studies suggest that certain types of repetitive sequences associated with heterochromatin formation may escape GER. Apparently, GER is a major hurdle for epimutations acquired in one generation to be transmitted to the subsequent generations, and the exceptional genomic elements that escape the epigenetic erasure during GER are of special interest as possible vehicles of transgenerational epigenetic inheritance in mammals.
One of the most challenging aspects of studying mechanisms of mammalian GER is that mammalian PGCs are rare and hard to access because they emerge only temporarily in the body of mammalian embryos/fetuses during the early stages of in utero development. It is impossible to expose pregnant women or their fetuses to potentially disease-causing stresses for research purposes, and animal experiments using rodent models often results in total lack of PGCs or embryonic lethality after exposure to stresses or genetic manipulations. In an effort to establish credible and effective in vitro surrogate models of PGCs for mechanistic studies on GER, we are developing methods for efficient production of human and mouse PGC-Like Cells (PGC-LCs), which are cell culture models of PGCs differentiated from the pluripotent embryonic stem cells or iPS cells. Deep sequencing analyses of mouse PGC-LCs and gonadal natural PGCs for mRNA expression, DNA methylation, DNA hydroxymethylation, and histone modifications have demonstrated significant epigenomic and transcriptomal similarities between our mouse PGC-LCs and natural embryonic mouse PGCs.
Our mouse PGC-LCs effectively recapitulate GER, erasing most of the epigenetic marks at protein-coding genes but preserving DNA hypermethylation at known GER-escaping repeat sequences such as the IAP class endogenous retroviruses. Mouse PGC-LCs were also able to erase aberrant DNA hypermethylation at the Dlk1-Dio3 imprinting control region specifically introduced in the precursor iPS cells generated under a vitamin C-deficient cell culture condition. This is the first experimental demonstration that a specific epimutation is erased during GER. Furthermore, using mouse PGC-LCs, we have identified novel GER-resistant sequences, including the γ-satellite heterochromatin repeats. These observations support the usefulness of mouse PGC-LCs as a model for epigenomic research on germline cells. We have been producing PGC-LCs from human iPS cells as well. Our transcriptomal analyses suggest that human PGC-LCs appear to reflect an early-stage PGCs before initiation of GER. Comprehensive characterization of human PGC-LCs is presently underway.
To examine whether transgenerational epigenetic inheritance involve monoallelic gene expression, we have generated mouse iPS cells whose paternal and maternal chromosomes are derived from Mus spretus and Mus musculus, respectively, by interspecific in vitro fertilization. Taking advantage of the rich (~ 1%) SNPs evenly distributed throughout the genomes of these two distant species of Mus, we are developing a cell culture model and a computational data analysis pipeline for sensitive and quantitative determination of monoallelic gene expression in these iPS cells and their PGC-LC products.
Erasure of aberrant DNA hypermethylation at the imprinting control regions IG-DMR and Gtl2-DMR in the pluripotency-compromised, Gtl2-negative mouse iPS cells during differentiation to primordial germ cell-like cells (PGCLCs) via epiblast-like cells (EpiLCs). Deep sequencing traces for DNA methylation determined using the Methyl- CpG Binding Domain protein-enriched genome sequencing (MBD-seq) technique are shown.

Emory U. Faculty Members Reportedly Vote to Censure Their President
Members of the faculty of Emory University's College of Arts and Science voted on Wednesday night to censure the institution's president, James W. Wagner, over his controversial reference in a column last week to a racially sensitive clause in the U.S. Constitution, according to messages circulating on Twitter and a statement on the Web site of a protest group called the Student Re-Visioning Committee. Some faculty members at Wednesday's meeting seconded a stronger motion, calling for a vote of no confidence against Mr. Wagner, the statement says, but a vote on that motion was postponed.
The protest group, which involves both students and faculty members, formed in response to program cuts that took many people by surprise when they were announced last fall. The statement on the group's Web site says that in other business at Wednesday night's meeting, the faculty agreed to go forward with a "formal and neutral review of the decision-making process behind the cuts."Return to Top

idk about the membrane pad but i love my seventh element board. they have a life time warranty and customer service really good. Try email it seems a lot faster.
Posted 06 February 2010 - 12:51 PM
I doubt it. Even Virtue's newer Ion boards don't support the membrane pad. If you're really looking for a pad, go for the APE board.

One of the strongest positions for the Twins in recent memory was catcher. The team essential lost both of their starting catchers from last year during the off-season. Ryan Doumit was traded to Atlanta and Joe Mauer was moved over to first base. This left the Twins with a void to fill and some questions about what is the best approach with a young catcher.
For Twins fans that were still watching at the end of last season, Pinto was a welcome surprise. He hit for power and average while looking like he could handle the pitching staff. His strong arm was on full display as he threw out five of the 11 potential base runners for a 45% caught stealing percentage. Pinto also did well during his time in the minor leagues. He hit over .300 in 126 games between the Double-A and Triple-A level. He collected career highs in home runs (15) and RBI (74). He has only played in 19 games with Rochester so it wouldn't be surprising if he ends up back in the minors at some point in the coming season. Although if he continues to hit at the big league level, the Twins won't be sending him back down because this roster needs as much offensive help as possible and Pinto could be a surprise player for the next few years.
Forecasting 2014: .271/.332/.433,14 HR, 25 2B, 62 RBI (113 games)
There were questions about Pinto's defense during his time in the high minors and this lead many to believe he would end up in Rochester to start the year. This wasn't the case as the Twins brought Pinto north and he is part of the team's roster for Opening Day. He will have the opportunity to work with and learn from veteran backstop Kurt Suzuki, which should be good for the rookie. The hope will be that by season's end Pinto has taken over the regular catching duties and he can fill this role for the foreseeable future. Suzuki might be an attractive target at the trade deadline and the Twins could deal him if Pinto has shown significant progress. There's no way Pinto will be able to produce at the level he did last September but the Twins would be happy if he can improve defensively and continue to hit for power. A young catcher with some pop in his bat would be a welcome addition to a rebuilding Twins squad.

For example Union City, NJ (where Evolve has held a few shows at the Ace Arena) is literally right across the river from New Jersey. With no traffic I can go from BB Kings in NYC to the Ace Arena in like 15-20 minutes. Evolve gets a nice crowd for BB Kings and they draw 70 people for the Ace Arena.
Ah well that makes sense, I would assume that's its probably difficult to find a really good venue in Philly (since the Arena closed) and more so New York. I guess they use the Ace Arena because of it's convenient location (though the place doesn't look very big), and like you said hoping that either the locals or people from NY and Philly will drive out to the show.
EVOLVE 9: Gargano vs. Taylor
New York City, NY- July 26, 2011
Quick Thoughts: After being so bitter about EVOLVE 8 I had my reservations going into this show. However, much the opposite of Style Battle I love this show and for good reason; going back to the mechanics and concepts that bought EVOLVE into the game. A consistent undercard matched with a strong second half and fantastic main events. Voted by fans the 2011 EVOLVE/DGUSA show of the year.
Eric Ryan vs. Bobby Beverly- N/A due to Steen
Super Smash Bros. vs. Facade & Jason Gory- Really good tag sprint for the time it got.
Silas Young vs. Sugar Dunkerton- Good match with a simple, yet effective dynamic to play off of.
Lince Dorado vs. Pinkie Sanchez- Solid match
Up in Smoke vs. The Scene- Good tag match that established the foundation for the Scene.
Bobby Fish vs. Jon Davis- N/A due to Steen
Bobby Fish vs. Jon Davis vs. Kevin Steen (Street Fight)- Great 3 Way showcase with each guy getting in their signature offense and everyone came out looking strong.
Tony Nese vs. John Silver- Towards great match, they had really good chemistry (Both NYWC Grads). Much better than what I remembered. Fuck I didn't remember Nese being so good during his original EVOLVE run.
Dave Finlay vs. Sami Callihan-
A great mix of brawling, storytelling and playing off of character dynamics that went back to showcasing a different style of match not seen in EVOLVE since roughly Danielson vs. Sawa. One of EVOLVE's top matches, easily on par with Richards/Ibushi and if not better, Danielson/Fish.
Johnny Gargano vs. Chuck Taylor (Win leaders)- Great main event where both guys worked hard and the exchanges and familiarity between both guys really made the match shine and took it up to that next level.
EVOLVE 10: Tribute to the Arena
Philadelphia, PA- January 14, 2012
Quick Thoughts: This was a decent show, a vast step down from EVOLVE 9 but better than EVOLVE 8. The crowd destroyed this show for the most part and EVOLVE 10 didn't flow as well as previous shows. Regardless, some good matches and again an alright show when you zone out the clusterfuck booking.
Low Ki vs. Ahtu- Not really much to say, Ahtu got knocked the fuck out.
Cheech Hernandez vs. KC Day- Really good match; lots of counters mixed with high flying.
John Silver & Alex Reynolds vs. The Scene- Decent tag match but dragged at times.
Jigsaw vs. AR Fox- Really good crash style match with a great finish.
Uhaa Nation vs. Pinkie Sanchez- Very entertaining squash
Chucky T & Rich Swann vs. Super Smash Bros.- Damn good tag match, took a while to get going but once it did they went balls.
Kyle Matthews vs. Jon Davis- Poorly done squash
Bobby Fish vs. Sami Callihan- Very good storytelling here, but the fans didn't react to anything and made the submissions drag when they weren't supposed to.
Johnny Gargano vs. Ricochet (Open the Freedom Gate Title)- N/A out of respect to Gargano
Sabu vs. Justin Credible- Alright for what it was, in their physical condition can't knock them too much.
EVOLVE 11: Finlay vs. Callihan
Toronto, ON- April 13, 2012
Quick Thoughts: This was a pretty crappy EVOLVE show on the level EVOLVE 8, but not their fault in the slightest. The original lineup would've made this show better but Gabe had to work with what he had. Really a two match show at its core.
Super Smash Bros. vs. The Gentlemen's Club- Fun opener
MK McKinnan vs. Josh Alexander- Squash
Mike Rollins vs. Ashley Sixx- Nothing match
John Silver vs. Alex Reynolds- Good match, both guys worked hard but the crowd wasn't having it.
Samuray Del Sol vs. Johnny Gargano vs. Chucky T- Decent Triple threat, they had to hold back though.
Adam Page vs. Caleb Konley- Decent Match, but nothing to write home about.
Low Ki vs. El Generico- A good, smart worked match sticking to the basics with a really good finish.
Dave Finlay vs. Sami Callihan- A strong main event match playing off the dynamic of their previous two encounters, making sure they don't mimic those matches but keep the same qualities that made those work. Not nearly as good as their EVOLVE 9 match but great nonetheless.
