Penney rues Reds lack of a gamebreaker
Munster boss bemoans lost lead but takes heart from dominant scrum ahead of Toulouse showdown
If you were looking for a neat snapshot of a sporting theatre that never quite gripped the imagination, then Rob Penney came pretty close to nailing it, once the packed audience, so hushed, so reserved, had fled the scene to seek sustenance elsewhere.
"There are a lot of people who had good games for us, without probably having the couple of stand-out moments that you need from individuals," said the chiselled-jawed coach, before adding superfluously "like you saw again with Brian O'Driscoll."
Sure, any number of Munster folk could have, justifiably, wondered how a clearly dominant scrum ended up on the debit side of the ledger – Penney and stand-in Damian Varley didn't escape the premises without reinforcing this fact quite strongly.
You reckon that Nigel Owens will be more sympathetic, if – and it's a reasonably sized 'if' at that – Munster's is once more the dominant set-piece in Limerick.
"I don't think we'll change anything," said Varley, referencing Alain Rolland's warning to the front-rowers, with Dave Kilcoyne at times being a little over-eager to seek early engagement with Mike Ross.
"Whatever about last week against Treviso, I thought we were even more dominant tonight against a very good, solid, physical pack. So, I think we are happy with what we are doing. There's probably an onus on referees to really understand what's happening and they need to reward a dominant pack."
Then again, his team would also have questioned how such dominance at set-piece – notwithstanding the referee's intervention – was not reflected in the outcome, particularly after stepping briskly into a familiar cup-match scoring pattern of 3-6-9.
They would reach 12-15-18, too, but too late to save the day. In truth, their inability to add five or seven to their account, rather than just three, was the difference between the sides and you got the feeling that Munster may not have scored a try were they left out there until the clocks went forward.
"Our attack didn't function as well as we would like," admitted Penney, who may ruefully reflect in private moments that his two best attacking threats, Keith Earls and Simon Zebo, were far removed from the action.
Both wingers played reasonably well, but, by the time the play had laboriously shuffled in their direction, Leinster were set fair and easily hobbled their intent. Munster's kicking game was awful too. And that's being charitable.
Denis Hurley's impression of a trucker and off-loader at 12 wasn't the worst we've seen, but Casey Laulala, as usual, danced himself dizzy, always attempting the impossible outcome without ever attaining the probable. Cohesion was sorely absent.
Certainly they may need more than just three-pointers when it comes to Toulouse. Their inability to copperfasten that healthy 12-3 advantage was a mortally wounding let-off for hitherto generous hosts.
In the battle of the freshly minted, vengeful Munster crew against the battle-hardened Leinster mob, the advantage eventually swung the way of the latter, albeit that Shane Jennings was more of a key figure than any of Joe Schmidt's Ireland squad.
Leinster eventually bossed the breakdown – naïve Munster also moaned here, a little too richly, of players being held at the rear of rucks on at least two occasions – carried better and finished the stronger.
"Our defence was robust and solid most of the time," noted Penney. "But it's just a war of attrition when Leinster are putting wave after wave of attack against you, there's going to be a frailty at some point. Credit to them, they put us under that much pressure."
He blamed his pet hate – a defensive 'whoopsy' – on the decisive score, but, in truth, once Leinster upped their intensity, Munster struggled to keep up, though their final quarter riposte was more than heartening.
"Certainly we got a bit of a lesson in a few certain areas. We've got some good lads here. They just haven't had the time to settle in with that intensity," said Penney.
"It will be very beneficial for us going into next week, because they will know the step-up that is required. And they'll have to step up even higher again with Toulouse being the quality outfit that they are.
"We can improve the whole bit. Our scrummaging was excellent, though. We didn't get the rewards here that we could have got. Our line-out was fine, we just didn't get enough opportunity from it. But overall, to have 12-3, it was a lead that was whittled away too quickly. There were a couple of instances where our players were held at the back of the breakdown; we got pinged even though they can't move when they're being penned in.
"But that's just great cuteness on Leinster's part. That's stuff we have to get better at defusing – we must learn some tricks of the trade ourselves."
That Peter O'Mahony was withdrawn after the coin toss – his hamstring issue a Six Nations legacy – should not preclude him from appearing next week, Penney hinted.
The prognosis on Donnacha Ryan's foot problem is less sure and, CJ Stander's vigour notwithstanding, the Nenagh man would be a huge loss against the French aristocrats.
"You always want your big players available, so it could be potentially damaging," added Penney. "I'd love to think we've done the right thing by Pete this week to make sure he's available next week. It will be very disappointing if the injury lingers. I'd be very surprised if it did, but you just can't be guaranteed with these things.
"We don't know what the core problem with Peter is. It's a hamstring-type thing. But it may be nerve related.
"He's been fine, but it just flared up, so we were just being very cautious with him."
Munster will be better, you feel; they have to be.
Many of their players were inhibited, rather than inspired, by the prospect of advancing their claims to the watching Schmidt, whose puzzlingly criticised squad selections this spring were roundly justified by the unfolding events.
Munster's real statement of intent comes next week in Thomond Park; they are still likely to remain in the top two of this league and face another renewal against their old rivals down the track.
They traditionally bomb in European dress rehearsals; they had a shocker against Glasgow before mugging Harlequins 12 months ago, so losing, even in Dublin, won't provoke too much insomnia.
"I wouldn't worry too much," Varley concludes. "We got a good run-out this evening, probably got rid of a few cobwebs and we'll push forward over the next couple of days.
"It's cup rugby, so we have to really work hard and increase the intensity for next week."

Factor in some sub-freezing games in April and having to compete with players that were also all-something in college or high school for over 140 games, this is where you begin to find out who can play.
Chronicling it all, as he has for the past three years as the voice of the Wizards, is Mike Maahs. Mike has been involved with the Wizards in some capacity since 1993, and although he also does basketball broadcasts in the off-season, is the embodiment of the term 'baseball lifer', which means when its spring, he is always going to be around the diamond in some capacity.
This year, the Wizards were a bit different than Padres' fans have seen in the past with some speed and potentially some very good pitching. Mike was kind enough to take some time between his off-season basketball duties and give us his impressions of the final year of the Wizards before they become the TinCaps and move into their new downtown stadium.
What was the biggest surprise with the Wizards this year?
Mike Maahs: The year before was one of the two worst from a wins and losses standpoint. I think Doug (Dascenzo, the Wizards manager) felt more comfortable and it was reflected in the better record this year. The team was more competitive with a little more stability. There was still quite a few player moves, but not nearly as many in previous years. The pitching staff was better, really one of the best I've ever seen here. Many of the guys had worked with Tom Bradley (the Fort Wayne pitching coach) in Eugene the previous year.
We got off to a bad start, won our first game and then lost the next seven, but the team began to pick it up and just missed making the playoffs, which was a big disappointment. We were in contention until the last series and to only fall one game short was something to be positive about.
Offensively, how was this team different from teams that you have seen in the past?
Mike Maahs: The speed factor. There have been other Wizard teams in the past, but not like this. Lance Zawadzki stole 28 out of 31 bases. We had three or four guys that if they could get on could steal a base, which we didn't have in the past. It allowed us to put the opposition on their heels a little. It would have been nice if we could bunt a little better and play more small ball, but still you could see the difference this year. Also, we had the emergence of Felix Carrasco in the first half, which gave us some power. I wish the Padres fans could have seen the show he put on in the All-Star game, three rounds he hit 20 home runs.
How about the pitching this year?
Mike Maahs: As I said earlier, it was probably some of the best pitching that we have had in a long time. I really hope Allen Harrington is able to get healthy because last year he really helped us out. The development of Jeremy McBryde this year was huge – he could become very good. No one knew what to think of Wynn Pelzer because he had to sit out last year with an injury, but he was also something special. Jeremy Heffner was probably our best pitcher day in and day out this year. Our closer Jackson Quezada may have been the biggest surprise this year. At the end of the season, he was the best closer in the Midwest League. I also think getting out of the eight-man rotation, which we had at the beginning of the season, helped out. Once we went to the five-man rotation everyone seemed to relax and understand what their role was.
The biggest position prospect everyone talks about that was in Fort Wayne this year was Drew Cumberland. Do you think he can stick at shortstop and what else did you notice about his game?
Mike Maahs: I thought he had the strongest arm of any infielder, a little erratic, but strong. The whole key with him is he's only 19. I think the key for some of our fans to understand that many of these kids were teenagers who are prospects that have great potential, but they are prospects, not major league players, which is why they are in the minors. Some nights you will see all of their ability, other nights you won't.
I think he is definitely a prospect and besides staying healthy just has to work on all the nuances of playing shortstop. This year, we had three guys that could play short, Drew, Zawadzki and Andrew Parrino. Drew just needs to become more comfortable with certain parts of the game so they become routine, and this will only happen if he stays healthy and gets the reps. Offensively, his big weapon is his speed, and if he stays healthy and learns how to use it effectively, he could become very good. I would also like to see him put on a few pounds, but the best thing about him is he has that type of football toughness that is hard to find.
Lance Zawadzki, who has always had quite a bit of talent, really put together a solid second half. What was the big difference with him and what do you see in his future?
Mike Maahs: I think the biggest difference was Lance knew where he was going to be in the order and where he was going to play on the field. When he started playing more short, he seemed to get more comfortable, which also helped him at the plate. He has some pop in his bat and led the team in extra base hits and stolen bases. In the field, he has a strong arm and some quickness. You have to think he could have a bright future, a switch-hitter with speed and some pop. Right now, he has a little more base running expertise than Cumberland; he really knew what he was doing when he got on. Lance is a very good base runner as opposed to Drew who used his athleticism a little more. I also thought in the second half he became more of a leader and was more vocal on the field and in the clubhouse.
Yefri Carvajal has always gotten quite a bit of attention. What do you think of his potential and how much did you see of it this year?
Mike Maahs: On a scale of 1 to 10 for potential, I would give him a six. Yefri got better as the year went on, and I saw a desire to really work hard, especially on his defense. At the plate, he has to learn to lay off pitches certain pitches and pitch sequences. It seemed like every pitcher in the league would pitch him up and in, then down and away. As the season went on, he got a little better at laying off some pitches. He has good power, but right now he needs to focus on making more consistent contact. He can get some extra bases because of his speed, but the big thing right now for him is to not swing at the pitchers pitch and force them to come to him.
Luis Durango has always been able to put the bat on the ball, but there are some questions about his defense. What did you think of it this year?
Mike Maahs: Offensively, he has unlimited potential. Luis can bunt, is a switch-hitter and has great hand eye coordination. Defensively, I think he relies too much on his speed along with some concentration lapses in the outfield. The big key for him is how much better he can get defensively, which is a big reason why he got sat sometimes by Doug when he wanted a stronger defensive outfield. Defensively, he was probably the weakest of our four outfielders.
Last but not least, Justin Baum very quietly led the team in RBI and was second in extra-base hits. What did you think of him?
Mike Maahs: A good kid. Justin had a great outing in Lansing in June where he knocked in seven runs, with two home runs. He may have the best eye on the team; it seemed he was in so many 3-2 counts, usually when starting 0-2. One of the things he needs to do is not focus on pulling the ball so much. He's a better hitter when he uses the whole field and actually has a little more power. He did have some problems defensively, but has a strong arm. I thought his biggest problem was that he needs to learn to relax a little more out there. So many of his errors were caused by him rushing throws after he knocked the ball down.
I know you didn't get to see Mat Latos that much this year, but when you did what were your thoughts?
Mike Maahs: A world of ability. Although he has a great fastball, Mat needs to develop into a three-pitch pitcher if he is going to stay a starter. He needs a change and has to pick between the slider and curve, but the fastball, wow! I don't think anyone threw as hard as he did in the Midwest League. If he stays healthy, as I said, there is a world of potential.
When I was in Fort Wayne, I was very impressed with Jeremy McBryde's potential. How well did his secondary stuff come along later in the year?
Mike Maahs: He improved by leaps and bounds in the second half. In the last six weeks, he may have been the most dependable starter. He sat behind me all year long on the bus and finally Tom Bradley got through to him that he needs more than one pitch. They kept pointing out that he needed to get ahead in the count and put the batter on the defensive. Jeremy wasn't as consistent in first half of the year because he threw too many pitches. When he started to get ahead in the count, he started to throw the change and slider more instead of trying to blow away guys he was very good. Jeremy really made some strides as the season went on. If he continues learning how to be a pitcher, he could have a big year in Lake Elsinore.
Jeremy Hefner was arguably your best pitcher this year. Why?
Mike Maahs: A good kid and he is going to go places. Jeremy can throw three pitches for strikes – our winning pitcher opening night. This year he threw a game in Lansing for the opening of the second half that was just amazing, one of the best pitching performances I've seen since I've been doing this. It's a confidence factor with so many guys in that it's not going to be just one pitch that is going to get them to San Diego.
Wynn Pelzer and Jackson Quezada both had big years. Could you give Padres fans an idea of what type of pitchers they were?
Mike Maahs: Quezada led the league in saves and games appearances. He just has a confidence about him that he always wants the ball. He would come off of the bus and would always say, 'I'm going to close the deal.' He can throw the ball hard and low. His change really improved this year, but as a relief pitcher sometimes you can get the job done with one pitch; and the man has a fastball.
Pelzer is a great kid, another guy that just needs to stay healthy. This year he was drilled by a line drive in the head and not only didn't miss a start, came back better than ever. Remember, he lost last season because of a line drive off of his knee in the Cape Cod League. Wynn is just very mentally tough. He's a very intelligent and articulate guy. His best pitch is probably the two-seam fastball. Really, this was the best pitching staff that we have had for a long time.
Who stood out in middle relief? Bryan Oland comes to mind.
Mike Maahs: Talk about set up guys, Bryan Oland may have been that guy. When Doug and Tom would bring him in, he didn't care what the situation was, he was just going to get the batter out. A very mentally tough pitcher, and he threw strikes from pitch one. I think he could have a bright future at upper levels. Between Oland and Quezada, we had the best set-up close combo in the Midwest League.
Last questions who was the batter of the year and the top pitcher?
Mike Maahs: I would have to go with Lance Zawadzki. He was in the lineup every day; hit third, led the team in stolen bases and just has a world of potential. The best pitcher was Bryan Oland who really excelled at his role, got the job done, and allowed so many pitchers to really have a great year, a bridge between the starters and Quezada.
Who was the top hitter and top pitching prospect?
Mike Maahs: I would like to have seen Cumberland stay healthy and see what type of numbers he would have put up in the number two spot. I think he would have hit over .300, played a little better defensively and become even better on the bases. I think the best pitching prospect down the road is Jeremy Hefner. I just see a maturity in him over the other guys. He has the ability to throw three pitches and a willingness to learn and ability to succeed.

Felix's Parachute Jump
Stage: 5
Challenge Level:
Why do this problem?
This problem encourages students to consider the maths behind the world record breaking parachute jump by Felix Baumgartner on October 14th 2012. The context can lead to many engaging questions, a few of which are suggested in the problem.
Possible approach
Begin by showing one of the video clips from Felix's jump - they are available on the
Red Bull Stratos
"What mathematical questions does the video prompt for you?"
Give students some time to discuss and share their ideas, and write up their questions on the board. If suggestions aren't forthcoming, the following are suggested in the problem:
As Felix stepped from the capsule at 39km, what proportion of the Earth's surface could he see?
Felix landed 9 minutes and 3 seconds after jumping. How much quicker would an object in freefall all the way down (ie without a parachute) land?
Can you estimate the maximum speed Felix reached before opening his parachute after 4 minutes and 19 seconds of freefall?
Of course, if you have a particular topic in mind, you could choose to share just one of these questions with the class and work on that.
Once students have decided on a question to work on, they will need to do some modelling and research in order to answer their question. Here are some useful facts from the jump:
Height of jump: 39,045 m
Time spent in freefall: 4 minutes 22 seconds
Total jump time: 9 minutes 9 seconds
Radius of earth: 6378km
Possible extension
Escape from Planet Earth

staying at the double tree hilton
At the Marriott here
There are two Best Western hotels in the surrounding area of the convention center that are pretty cheap. Nothing really as fancy as the Marriot or the Hilton or whatever it is that is right there at the center, but its a good nearby place to crash out for the night. We have stayed at both of them over the last few years for Blizzcon as well as trips to Disney and they are quite nice. Both are easy 5-10 minute walks to both the SWC and to Disney for anyone who is interested. They also have swimming pools and provide breakfast I would recommend these two places to anyone still looking, assuming they still have any vacancies.
Also, to any of you who are already planning to stay in the area immediately surrounding the center and Disney, if you need gas or some sort of groceries, there is a super Wal-Mart about a mile or so east of the 'tourist area' otherwise plan to spend big bucks on normally cheap stuff. Also some really good sit down eats around their outdoor mall a few more miles down the main street from Disney. And of course, there is always Medieval Times across town.
Bought my 4-day pass. Wont be staying in Anaheim as I live just up the road in West LA
Staying at the Hilton. Looking forward to seeing you guys.
Less than six months until C7, anyone else freaking out?
My seven year PP2 build is just needing a Jetpack (Ponte is on it - Thanks Brother), custome Mando is done(application submitted), working on Sabine for my daughter(9) and buget ESB for my son(7).
I'm going with some friends from Canary Islands (Spain) a couple of weeks we bought the flight and hotel, we also have tikets for four days. Since we go out quite expensive, I take and learn something out there as we will be ten days. I doubt take my BF suit, the bag is very big to carry to Los Angeles

You are here: EquiFeast | Home Page : EquiFeast Articles And Information : Calmer Horses | The Future Of The Horse Calmer
Magnesium horse calmers vs calcium
The horse calmer represents one of the largest segments in the horse supplements market, yet failure rates are exceedingly high. Over the past six months, the horse calmer market has witnessed a shift in approach to how current calmers are produced. Progress has been made in the development of a new, innovative product ingredient that could increase repeat sales by up to 50%, despite the recession, chelated calcium.
Since the introduction of calcium based horse calmers to the market, questions have been raised about the effectiveness of current magnesium calmers. EquiFeast conducted their own trials in 2008 on a small number of horses, to ascertain just how effective magnesium is as a calmer and if chelated calcium would actually have a more positive affect on a horses brain function than magnesium. Interestingly, EquiFeast found that magnesium actually failed in more horses than it helped, reporting that only 25% of horses experienced any positive change in their behaviour, while over 30% deteriorated. However, 90% of horses responded positively to the introduction of chelated calcium supplements (an organic calcium that is easily absorbed into the body), with notably improved concentration and behaviour.
These studies led EquiFeast to believe that although magnesium plays an important role in a horse's behaviour, when combined with chelated calcium (which will not interfere with the absorption of magnesium or "block" other minerals within the body) and other nutrients, the results are three times more effective. It is of EquiFeast's opinion that if a horse is deficient in one mineral (like magnesium); it will almost certainly be deficient in another. Therefore, if only magnesium is supplement, it is almost certain that the animal will continue to exhibit bad behaviour as a result of additional deficiencies i.e. calcium. EquiFeast argue that it is better to treat the problem before the symptoms, thus a complete supplement is required.
As calcium is responsible for turning the brain cells on, without calcium, the animal will display irrational and bad behaviour. According to Malcolm Green from EquiFeast:
"Grass is not designed to extract natural calcium from the soil because the plant does not require it and in alkaline soils, the calcium is "locked up". Traditional calcium supplements are made with a poor source of calcium such as limestone. They have little, if any, effect. We have found that chelated calcium is by far the richest most bio-available form of calcium. Many supplements now contain chelated minerals because of their ease of absorption rate. It is the combination of chelated calcium and other minerals such as magnesium that produces such impressive results, not simply one standalone mineral".
A noticeable change will be witnessed over the coming months, as more and more supplement manufacturers incorporate chelated calcium into their calmers, along with their current technologies, to create a market of "super calmers", calmers with high success rates and therefore, high repeat order rates.
Malcolm Green believes:"There are a number of exciting opportunities for manufacturers with the introduction of chelated calcium into their supplements:
1.) It will increase customer satisfaction and repeat purchases for difficult horses
2.) It will dramatically expand the 'calmer' market because it improves judgement and decision making and reduces tension in 'sensible' horses and leads to substantial performance improvements
3.) The market for chelated calcium supplements is currently growing at 38% over last year's sales despite the recession
4.) With an interest from elite riders in the USA, who have been excited by the effects on high level competition horses in the UK and more recently over there, export sales may also be increased.
This unique chelated horse calmer technology is available in:

Lytham - For the second year in a row, Rory McIlroy limped away from the Open Championship with his head bent low after he failed to make any impression in Sunday's final round at Royal Lytham.
Live scoring
The 23-year-old Ulsterman could get nothing going in gentle early conditions as he came in with a 73 for the second straight day.
That left him stranded well down the field at eight-over par 288 and heading home before the leaders had even started their final rounds.
It was all too reminiscent of last year at Royal St George's, when McIlroy played poorly just a month after his dominating triumph in the US Open.
On that occasion, he bemoaned the fickle British weather and said how happy he would be to get back to playing in the sunshine of the United States.
But at Lytham he was more measured in his comments.
"Obviously very disappointed because I felt like I was coming in here playing pretty well," he said.
"I had a really nice first round, set myself up well for the week and then just started to struggle after that. So it's just disappointing.
"It's hard when you're trying to just get that little bit of momentum and you try to force it and you're maybe trying too hard and things don't go your way, and that sort of happened this week."
McIlroy has now played in five British Opens and, with the exception of St Andrews in 2010, he has struggled each time to handle the demands of links golf and the unpredictable weather that goes with it.
But he said that he had time on his side, with experience being widely seen as being one of the main ingredients in producing an Open winner.
"I think the thing for me is to stay patient," he said.
"It's a 20-year career, so I'm not going to get too wound up just over a few weeks. I've got to keep working away, plugging away, working hard and working on the right things and eventually it will come around."
There was also the compensation of being finished in time to sit back and watch fellow Ulsterman and close friend Graeme McDowell bid for Open glory later in the afternoon.
McDowell was in second place, four strokes behind leader and playing partner Adam Scott in the final group.
"I'm going to be sitting in front of the TV and pulling for him," McIlroy said of McDowell.

Products are shipped by the individual Fruugo retailers, who are located across Europe and the rest of the world. The delivery times and shipping prices vary depending on the retailer's location, the destination country and the selected delivery method.
Fruugo offers two delivery options: Standard or Express. All retailers offer a standard delivery service, and some retailers also offer an express delivery service.
Although Fruugo retailers endeavour to deliver within these timescales, please note that the above timescales are estimated and not guaranteed.
The delivery timescales do not include any customs clearing times beyond Fruugo's control.
Please allow additional shipping time for deliveries to South Africa.

Please take reasonable care of the goods whilst in your care. Any goods returned must be in a resaleable condition. They must be unworn/unused with original tags attached and in original packaging.

We will generally instruct you to ship the damaged product back to the retailer. As soon as it reaches the retailer, they will send you a replacement product. If the replacement can't be made, or if you wish to cancel the order, you will be refunded in full. You will also be reimbursed for reasonable returns postage costs for damaged or faulty goods once we have received your postage receipt.

when you go grocery shopping, all the impulse buy stuff is right there at the cash register, waiting for you to just add it to your cart before you pay right?
Won't adding another step before checkout for them to add in the extra items decrease the number of people who end up buying? Right now they click the Buy button and it goes to PayPal, if I were to add in another page in between I'm thinking the number of people who go through with the entire process would drop.

As pointed out above, something of a formula plot and somewhat predictable. The Islam connection is probably derived in general from the 1972 Olympics and the bombing that took place there . . . at least prior to the Embassy takeover in the late seventies, the Olympics was the episode most fresh in Western minds . . . aside from airliner hijackings, which seemed to be popular with non-Islamic folks as much as with Islamic ones. Perhaps a third (??) of RMT episodes deal with murderers or want-to-be-murderers and their victims. Since we're talking about 1399 episodes I don't think RMT was picking on any one group or one religion. A killer is a killer, when all is said and done. Oklahoma City should remain as a vivid reminder that terrorists come in many different colors and flavors. Now I'm depressed. Thanks for bumming me out with this downer of a show. My life is ruined. But really, thanks again for the show. A good encode and good food-for-thought.
An enjoyable but fairly routine woman-in-peril episode, I thought. How nice of the man to come to the rescue--and then marry her, as any decent hero must! For me the terrorist connection, though certainly interesting when heard today, is really just window dressing. This story is standard 1950s-style fare--the evil invaders who take over a household was done again and again in that fearful era, from the movies SUDDENLY and THE DESPERATE HOURS to many, many TV dramas including ALFRED HITCHCOCK PRESENTS. Ian Martin simply updated it, as Morton Miller indicates, to include more contemporary villains. Not a bad episode at all, and an interesting historical curiosity.
Joey Dona
Thanks, guys...the story itself was standard fare but...I'm looking again at E.G.'s comments. I honestly can't remember any show tackling terrorism, even with terrorists used as a mere plot device, like this in the 1970s, 80s and 90s. There HAD to be some, but I watched a lot of TV during that time and can't remember any such program. (I think I remember some shows with Patty Hearst/Symbionese Liberation Army style villains, so that's pretty close.) And I darn sure can't remember any program up to today (especially up to today) that has passed judgment on terrorists like this one through Mr. Marshall's multiple outro comments.
This isn't the RMT's finest episode by any means. It's not THAT scary, though unnerving enough. It is also somewhat formulaic.
But, IMO, it shows how prescient the RMT writers were.
This program apparently aired on November 5, 1979, the day after militants stormed the U.S. embassy in Tehran and held hostages for about a year, right before Ronald Reagan was inaugurated president.
If this was indeed the first air date of the program, the RMT writers either put together this episode in a hurry or were spot on in their timing.
On an episode of "Nashville Star" a few weeks back the contestants performed original songs. In interviews with a songwriting duo, the professional songwriters said most successful people in their trade were married, had kids, and had experienced what life is all about. I think that, too, is what made so many of the RMT plays so successful, even if the subject matter was often ghosts, aliens from space, science fiction and ficticious crimes.
The writers had lived through world events. Prolific playwright Sam Dann had been in the 42nd Infantry Rainbow Division in WWII and had seen history, I don't know what history Ian Martin had seen, but he wrote some of my favorite RMT plays (including the tremendous adaptation of Guy de Maupassant's "The hand") and himself seemed to have a firm grip on reality.
I try not to let myself voice my views that much, but in reality I'm politically and spiritually aligned pretty much with Drs. Jerry Falwell and James Dobson. I'd rather leave most discussions to other bulletin boards and just focus on good ole RMT shows here...but I've said before how much I appreciate the elements of Christianity woven into so many RMT plays (which would never even be considered in most CBS shows today, I'm guessing). These playwrights, for the most part, knew right from wrong.
Anyhow, I've written way too long, so I'll end with the ending words of Ian Martin's "Saladin" character, followed by E.G.'s first act outro immediately thereafter (the latter's third act outro and final outro were quite biting as well)*:
"We will go visit the lady whom Allah has provided to give me sanctuary."
- "Saladin the butcher", after explaining to his brother how he'll go and take a wealthy American woman and her niece hostage, take their money, commandeer their home and hold them until they're no longer useful.
"An intruder, his authority not only the gun but lack of any morals...a man who once when he was through with us and our usefulness was done would not hesitate to dispose of us as casually as a burnt out cigarette."
E. G. Marshall, at the end of the first segment.
*BTW, I have a problem with Islam but not with many practitioners of it, some of whom are people I'd give my life for. I just have a problem, as did the writers of the show, with Islamic terrorists.
Dylan B.
"We will go visit the lady whom Allah has provided to give me sanctuary." - "Saladin the butcher", after explaining to his brother how he'll go and take a wealthy American woman and her niece hostage, take their money, commandeer their home and hold them until they're no longer useful. "An intruder, his authority not only the gun but lack of any morals...a man who once when he was through with us and our usefulness was done would not hesitate to dispose of us as casually as a burnt out cigarette." E. G. Marshall, at the end of the first segment. <SARCASM>Gee, this has NO relevance to us today, does it?</SARCASM> A well known Muslim terrorist known as "Saladin the butcher", on the lam after a bombing in Greece, meets up with his brother in a remote area on the Turkish coast. The brother knows of a wealthy, elderly romance novel writer who lives nearby with her niece. Saladin has to lay low for awhile and needs a way to keep fed and his cash flowing. I've already said what he decides to do. The elderly woman isn't afraid of the terrorist, but wants no harm to come to her niece, hence she acquiences. In the meantime, an archaeologist who plans on going to the area (his mother married a greek guy who was raised in Turkey...I'm sure not uncommon but interesting given the conflicts that have existed between those two nations) meets with his uncle, who's with an influential publishing house that happens to have the elderly American ex-pat romance writer in their stable. The uncle thinks something is wrong due to correspondance he's had with the lady, but he can't put his finger on it. He asks the nephew to check in on her, and the adventure begins. At the end of the episode, I was tempted to ask "C'mon, E.G., tell us what you really think of terrorists."

It's a lovely May Sunday, and my old dogs limp
behind me up the beach as my sons scour the ocher sand
like archivists seeking the day's quota of mystery.
To them it's a magical kingdom, their minds tiny
oceans of good and evil strategies, the hard traffic
of dreams enclosed by a flourishing expectation.
We came here for the mature light, the devout ripening
silence of the woods at the night, the enormous skies.
It was lush, lonely and secret enough. Now clouds drift
along the sky's pink awning, each a wish, a gift I must return.
I never thought I'd have so much to give up; that the view
from the other side of my life would be so precious.
This is no place to think of Camus, who believed the soul
expected to be despised, executed every day of its life.
This is where I'd come to say good-bye. Bless each mile
these arthritic animals tag behind, my sons who think
happiness will make them happy. The ocean isn't magical,
anyone's kingdom, it's where we go to be human, and

Coming Soon to Borders: E-Passports
You know that dog-eared passport sitting in a drawer? Get ready to say goodbye. It's the last of its kind. Since mid-August, U.S. immigration authorities have been issuing tourists a new breed of high-tech passport that includes hard-to-crack electronic chips loaded with an encrypted digital version of the carrier's identity. And as goes the U.S., so go 27 other nations, which have to adopt the new standard in order to maintain the right of visa-free entry into the U.S.
For security-minded immigration officials, this is all good news. Electronic passports, or e-passports, are the latest step in a battle to stymie bad guys trying to sneak across borders. For others, e-passports are meeting with mixed reviews.
Privacy experts argue that in a rush to switch to digital passports, the U.S. ramrodded a de facto world standard without sufficient review and may have unleashed serious security flaws. For travelers, early reports indicate that the new e-passports pass through immigration about as fast—or slow—as the old model.
Indeed, for an international traveler, the experience of using an e-passport will be only a little different. As usual, a border control agent will take the passport, scan it, and then compare the photo laminated inside with the traveler. The new twist is that agent will then also be able to check a computer screen and view a digital mug shot along with standard passport information, such as date and place of birth, all wirelessly downloaded. If the photo on the passport, the image on the computer, and the person in front of the agent all match, no problem. If not, there's trouble for the holder.
The encrypted digital data are the centerpiece of this upgrade. In the past, dexterous counterfeiters could simply substitute a new photo into a stolen passport, stealing the carrier's identity. The digital data in the new design is much harder to fake because it requires that the counterfeiter hack not just the physical picture but an encrypted chip also.
The chips in U.S. passports are based on radio frequency identification, or RFID, and for now, they include just the digital photo and the same basic information printed in the passport: gender, date, and place of birth, plus the date of issue for the passport, its number, and its expiration date.
But the passport chips come with enough spare memory to include additional biometric data that is harder still to replicate (see BusinessWeek.com, 3/28/06, "Biometrics: Payments at Your Fingertips"). Fingerprint images are included in Europe's e-passports, though not yet in U.S. documents. A scan of the bearer's iris can also be included.
To keep this biometric data secret from prying eyes, the U.S. State Dept. has added layers of security not present in the originally proposed design. "The U.S. passport is an exemplar of data protection and security," says Frank Moss, who, as deputy assistant secretary of state for Passport Services, has been using one of the new passports over the past year.
Replacing all the world's passports promises to be an enormous enterprise, if one that will grow relatively slowly. Worldwide, the total number of passports stands at around 500 million. Of that total, as many as 350 million travelers come from the 28 nations that have adopted the new design. Only a fraction of those will be replaced each year, as old passports expire. In the U.S., for example, adult passports expire in 10 years, so it will take a decade to replace the entire pool.
Not an exploding market, but for the makers of the advanced chips embedded in these travel documents, it's one that may prove lucrative. Compared with the low-end RFID tags used in stores to track goods, which go for pennies apiece, the passport chip package is among the most advanced of its breed, says Sara Shah, industry analyst at ABI Research.
Indeed, the RFID chips in the passports have more in common with the advanced circuitry used in wireless payment cards issued by banks and credit card companies. "Retail chips have to be low cost, work at a distance, and have minimal security," adds Shah. "Passport chips are at the other end of the spectrum."
While only a bit thicker than a sheet of paper, the passport chips are more like highly specialized computers. They must be able to use ultra-low levels of power, drawn from radio waves sent from the reader, to decrypt inbound signals, then retrieve and broadcast back to the reader very large chunks of data. And they have to do this all very quickly, with a host of security features, and all for a few dollars a pop, according to industry estimates.
To cover the cost of the passport enhancements, as well as to pay for the installation of readers and related gear at border crossings, the State Dept. upped the price of passports by $12, to $97 for adults, or $67 for a replacement. While he won't reveal the per passport cost of the new technology, Joerg Borchert, vice-president of chip card and security ICs at Infineon North America, says, "These are extremely sophisticated chips."
Thin as it is, the e-passport is a complex device. Making one involves connecting the RFID chip to an antenna, programming encryption routines, layering in radio-wave insulators, and then bonding it all together in a durable blue cover. This cover is in turn sent to a U.S. printing office where it's bound into a finished passport. Germany's Infineon (IFX) is one of two companies approved to produce the high-tech passport covers and uses its own RFID chips. Gemalto, of the Netherlands, is also approved to assemble the covers, but is using RFID chips from Dutch chipmaker NXP Semiconductors (until recently Philips Semiconductor). From virtually nothing a year ago, the market for complete e-passport chipsets and related software is forecast to hit $3 billion in 2009, says Shah.
The demand for new passports in the U.S. is accelerating. Today, some 70 million passports are in circulation, carried by 23% of the population. That's up from just 11%, or about 32 million travelers, 10 years ago. The penetration is likely to grow further because of new federal rules that, effective Jan. 1, 2008, require passports for travelers entering the U.S. from the Caribbean, Bermuda, Panama, Mexico, and Canada. Together, these make up the vast majority of external destinations for U.S. tourists. Due to the rules, the State Dept. predicts passport requests will see a one-time spike in 2007, growing by 31%, to 16 million.
Privacy experts are the first to acknowledge that the new e-passports are an improvement. Yet they're equally quick to add that no matter how good its high-tech mug shots, iris scans, or fingerprint templates, the new design is only as secure as the digital precautions they rely on. Any foe who can crack these can substitute other photos and data.
And since the passport data is broadcast over radio waves, even for short distances, it is more vulnerable than if relayed via direct contact. In lab tests, this information can be picked off using sophisticated antennas and detectors. While this trick would be very difficult to repeat in an airport immigration area, the proof of vulnerability concerns privacy experts.
Indeed, the reliance on RFID opens the passports to a host of potential troubles, many of which have been demonstrated on early versions of e-passports at privacy conferences and in labs. "On security grounds, this is a potential disaster," says Barry Steinhardt, director of the Technology and Liberty Program at the American Civil Liberties Union and a vocal critic of the new standard.
A whole lexicon has sprung up to describe the types of abuses that could arise. The vulnerabilities include eavesdropping. That's when a foe might intercept data as it's being broadcast from a passport to the reader at the immigration desk. "Scanning" is similar but can occur at a distance, even in public, using powerful, hidden RFID transmitters. Once the data is in hand, a counterfeiter can clone the passport information by copying it onto a blank chip. Then there's "tracking," which exploits the signal that RFID chips send out when scanned by a reader. By snagging this unique identifier, a single traveler or even a class of travelers—say, all Americans—could be identified and tracked remotely.
Even though Moss initially dismissed such demos as mere "parlor tricks," the State Dept. and the industry in time took steps to counter each one. For example, a thin layer of aluminum was added to the passport's cover to insulate it from remote scanning and tracking.
Conceding that unencrypted data flowing to and from the passport was a problem, the State Dept. also encrypted the data in the RFID chip and added an extra precaution. Words and numbers printed on the passport's information page are scanned to create a key that unlocks the encrypted RFID information.
Welcome changes all. But for now, it's impossible to know if the moves fix all the vulnerabilities, says Steinhardt. The State Dept. did not circulate test versions with outside experts before they were released into widespread use. "We know it was flawed," he says, "Now we can't be certain if it actually works."
Worries persist in Europe, too. There, privacy officials, intent on minimizing the amount of private data held by the state, are butting heads with their counterparts in immigration departments. Just as the passport standards are being applied, there's renewed pressure in a number of European states to issue mandatory national identity cards with security and data features similar to those found in electronic passports.
As more data is collected by different agencies, privacy advocates worry about data "creep." That's when governments—or private players who license the information—compare and unify data from different databases to build detailed profiles of citizens. "We have to make sure that the information stored on a passport doesn't leak out into different areas of people's lives," says Simon Davis, the director of Privacy International in London.
And while the new e-passport standard was set by the U.N.-affiliated International Civil Aviation Organization, there's a perception that the U.S. forced through its security standard without weighing other nations' wishes. Steinhardt calls it "policy laundering": when a government ramrods its policy through the U.N. and declares it an international mandate. While the U.S. requires biometric data from incoming travelers, "it's not introducing a corresponding requirement for the personal papers of its own citizens," Peter Schaar, Germany's Federal Data Protection Commissioner said in a written statement.
For all the concerns circling around the new passports, any real vulnerabilities will likely surface very soon. The percentage of travelers carrying the e-passports, while still low, is growing steadily. Tourists in Europe started using them earlier this summer—so far, with no widely publicized failures. In the U.S., of the nation's 15 passport printing centers, only the Denver office is currently issuing the new model. Until the remaining 14 centers switch over—a process due to be completed by early next year—tourists getting new or replacement passports have a good chance of receiving the old, analog version.
Until then, the old-style passports will not pose a problem in immigration lines, says Moss. For tourists using the pre-digital model passports, including those from the 160-plus nations that are not part of the e-passport regime, travel procedures are unchanged. Border control agents here and overseas will continue to rely on photo and data printed in the cover page, and will keep processing visitors as fast—or slow—as always.

A light board is also for viewing negatives and slides.
<VampyreKitten> Have you ever seen the pope's crib?
<MissAbyss> His ride is totally pimped too, bulletproof glass 'cause the haters keep trying to put him down.
Maybe this:
Write Light Board
Using a small flashlight or ultraviolet pen light, draw on the glow-in-the-dark side of the board. Place the board on the table and use the UV light to "write" with light. Place the light right up against the board just as if you were drawing with a pen - and turn it on. Squiggle a few messages on the board, or place some objects on the top of the board and expose them to light. Learn how to "freeze a shadow," and have a little glow in the dark fun! Reuseable!
or here?

Dads can be so embarrassing. There are the ones who claim that it was better back in their day, you know, the "good old days." Then there are the ones who try so hard to prove they're "cool" and "hip." And then, there's this dad. THE MOST AWESOME DAD IN ALL THE LAND.
This dad can "nae nae" with the best of them. Unfortunately, the "best of them" does not include his unsuspecting two daughters. Mike Jones, secretly danced in the background while his two girls, who are 12 and 10, recorded their video.
It takes one entire minute and 20 seconds until the sisters realized that they've been upstaged by their father.
Since posting the video to Facebook, the video has gone viral. Jones told dJournal that his daughters were at first a little peeved that he ruined their video:
Their first reaction was they were mad and thought I ruined their video. I always jump in their videos, but once we posted it and their friends starting messaging them saying they saw them on the Internet, now it's the greatest thing in the world.
Dads, right? So embarrassing.

What are the best pvp games out there?
What I'm really looking for is something like TERA end game arena based PvP without the gear grind progression. Buying gear with points or in game currency is fine, but as long as it's not something that is severely tedious. I know what you're thinking..
Why don't I just play a MOBA? Well to start things off I HATE MOBAS. They're too PvE based for me, and I hate that you don't get "your own" hero or character and get to design what he looks like I guess. The thing I hate MOST about MOBAS is they're so damn slow paced! I mean really a match is so long I start the lose interest half way through and just quit everytime (yes I'm that guy). I love being able to kill people in one combo. I love being able to stun somebody and just unload a deathly amount of damage on them before they can run off to get healed or whatever, and MOBA's just don't offer that.
What I've tried:
Smite - Just the arena part. I like this, but I'm looking for more maybe? I hate lanes or anything like that. I don't mind objectives (domination, hold points etc) but the MOBA style is seriously a huge turn off to me.
Forge - I like the idea of this honestly. But it's just completely dead.
Bloodline Champions - Dead.
LoL - Tried because of the hype.. Was not impressed. Just so slow IMO.
DotA2 - Same reasons as LoL.
Prime World - Same as LoL.
I like having to aim my skills similar to smite, and I want a really high skill ceiling. I need something skill based and something to be competitive with. I watched some neverwinter pvp gameplay and although it is an MMO with gear progression I'm not sure how fast it really is and how serious the community takes it. Back in the glory days of TERA PvP was so competitive and everybody wanted to be the best. Fighting for high elo in 3v3, making teams was just awesome. Now the community is full of retards that don't know basic pvp strategy and how to play objective when needed. I need something serious.
Is there really nothing out there to satisfy my needs?
- Fast Paced
- Serious/Competitive Community
- Feels fluid
- Preferably looks good. (I like anime style also)
On a side note I'm currently playing FFXIV and loving it and hoping the PvP that comes out can satisfy my hunger. Although it's not aiming, I still think organizing team work within your party with be a huge skillful task.

When a politician -- male or female, liberal or conservative -- writes a memoir*, anything therein is fair game for the news media and his or her opponents, particularly when claims made therein are false or misleading. But to the gang at MSNBC, Republican criticism of the network's anointed golden girl Wendy Davis is beyond the pale.
"Right attacks Wendy Davis," screams the top msnbc.com headline this afternoon. Clicking that teaser headline takes the reader to Zachary Roth's "Right pounces on news that Wendy Davis embellished life story." Roth went on to practically script a melodrama where Davis is the damsel in distress tied to the railroad tracks by those dastardly, vile Texas Republicans (emphasis mine):
Since her historic filibuster against anti-choice legislation last summer, Wendy Davis has vaulted from a little-known Texas state lawmaker to a bona fide national progressive star. And her long-shot bid for governor this year in a state that hasn't elected a Democrat statewide in nearly two decades started to look a little less long-shot with the news last week that she'd raised over $12 million.
Conservatives have looked in vain for ways to take Davis down (one idea, calling her "Abortion Barbie," pretty much blew up in their faces). Now at last, Davis' opponents think they've hit pay-dirt, seizing on a lengthy Dallas Morning News report that found Davis has been inaccurate or misleading in recounting some of the details of her personal history. But the response from some on the right suggests that for them, Davis' real transgressions may lie elsewhere.
It seems that Davis' real sin isn't playing fast and loose with her biography. It's making life choices they disagree with—including the decision, as a mother, to prioritize her career. And it's hard to imagine those choices generating criticism were Wendy Davis a man.
Davis has said she was a divorced teenage mother who, through hard work and perseverance, went from living in a mobile home to Harvard Law School. That up-by-the-bootstraps persona has been a central part of Davis' appeal.
But according to the paper, Davis was divorced at 21, not 19, and lived in a mobile home only for a few months. Later, Davis' second husband, Jeff Davis, helped her pay for her final two years of college and for Harvard Law.
"My language should be tighter," Davis acknowledged to the DMN. "I'm learning about using broader, looser language. I need to be more focused on the detail."
But conservatives aren't letting her get off that easy.
Roth then went on to quote various tweets by conservatives such as Matt Drudge, Erick Erickson, Brit Hume, and Ben Shapiro to back up his claim. It was the latter's snark that particularly offended Roth:
It's no surprise that conservatives are jumping on the story. But some are going further—they're using the DMN report to attack Davis for being a bad mother.
"Wendy Davis apparently abandoned her children, had her husband foot her bills, and divorced after adultery accusations," tweeted conservative commentator Ben Shapiro, sarcastically adding the hashtag "FeministHero."
That's a reference to the story's account that Davis' kids, then 8 and 2, stayed with Jeff Davis in Fort Worth while she went to Harvard Law. The story also notes that Jeff Davis' initial divorce filing cited adultery, but adds: "The final court decree makes no mention of infidelity, granting the divorce solely "on the ground of insupportability."
That's just one of hundreds of anti-Davis tweets in a similar vein, several from prominent conservatives like Shapiro.
"I cheated on and left the guy who cashed out his 401(k) to put me through college and law school," wrote conservative pundit David Freddoso, explaining how he thinks Davis could more accurately present her life story.
There's a certain bite to those tweets, to be sure, but if Twitter were around in say 2004, there's little doubt that prominnt liberal Democratic bloggers and pundits would not have jumped in with glee to mock Barack Obama opponent and Republican Senate hopeful Jack Ryan for unsavory details about his private life which he'd have rather stayed, well, private.
Ryan, you may recall, dropped out of the Senate race after the Chicago Tribune successfully got a judge to unseal California divorce/child custody proceedings in which his ex-wife had alleged that Ryan had asked her to perform sex acts on him while at various sex clubs. Both parties in that case, Mr. Ryan and his ex-wife actress Jeri Ryan had urged the court to not unseal those records out of concern for their son, Alex.
Both Ms. Davis's inaccuracies/faulty claims and what transpired in reality, uncolored by Davis's spin, are relevant information for Texas voters to have and with which to judge Ms. Davis's suitability to be governor of the State of Texas. The folks at MSNBC.com obviously know that, but their task is not that of journalists seeking a full fleshing out of the truth but rather partisans hoping to help the Fort Worth Democrat turn this incident into fundraising fodder by playing, once again, the victim.
* UPDATE/CLARIFICATION: Ms. Davis is at work writing her memoir, slated for publication in the fall prior to the election. At issue here is Ms. Davis's embellished biography as rendered in speeches on the campaign trail and with media outlets.
P.S.: The Dallas Morning News item that started this all was penned by none other than Wayne Slater, who is, to be charitable, a left-of-center guy.

Linda McMahon loses again

Second time in two cycles that she's failed. She spent nearly $44 million this time, more than $30 million last time. Second look at not running as a Republican in one of the bluest states in America?
