I used "UV Master" to make the overall UV map of my human character. Then I masked the head and made 2 polygroups. One for the head the other for the body. Could someone tell me how I can make two UV maps out of these 2 polygroups. I have attached a .jpeg to show my work flow so far.
How can I assign UV's to these two groups. Could I also use UV master to assign UV's to individual polygroups? or does UV master only make one UV map per object?

Graphab software
Land cover changes resulting from urban sprawl, transport network intensification and agricultural changes contribute to fragment wildlife habitats and may lead to question viability of animal and vegetal populations. Including issues of ecological networks and landscape connectivity in spatial planning and land management proves therefore to be a crucial stake for preserving biodiversity. In this context, the modelling of ecological networks is a suitable approach for achieving diagnoses, prioritizing action to be done (for instance ecological restoration) and comparing prospective scenarios of development or conservation. This kind of modelling is complementary to approaches led by field specialists in ecology.
Graphab software is devoted to the modelling of ecological networks from the framework of graph theory. It is the only tool able to include construction and visualization of graphs, connectivity analyses and links with external data. It is easily compatible with Geographical Information Systems.
Graphab is composed of 4 modules for:
- constructing graphs, including loading initial landscape data and identifying patches and links (Euclidean distances or least-cost paths)
- computing connectivity metrics from graphs
- integrating graph-based connectivity metrics into species distribution models
- visual and cartographic interfacing
Graphab runs on any computer supporting Java (PC under Linux, Windows, Mac...). It is distributed free of charge.
Users of Graphab are invited to mention the following reference in their studies:
Foltête J.C., Clauzel C., Vuidel G., 2012. A software tool dedicated to the modelling of landscape networks, Environmental Modelling & Software, 38: 316-327.
This software is funded by the French Ministry of Ecology, Energy, Sustainable Development and
Sea (ITTECOP program).
Graphab logo was designed by Gachwell.

Chicken Nuggets or Fish Sticks?
The better choice: Fish sticks.
"Fish sticks have omega-3 fatty acids, and the nuggets don't," says Johnson. "And every little bit of these acids helps. They are critical for neurological and cognitive development, and they may reduce asthma, eczema, and allergies." You are more likely to get your toddler to eat fish sticks than a salmon fillet, so get those omega-3s in where you can.
Keep in mind: Chicken nuggets and fish sticks are both high in fat. Frozen varieties range from 10 to 20 grams per serving, with up to five grams of saturated fat and 500 milligrams of sodium.

Centralized controls: Smart software, networks trump smart hardware
Unified programming
Back to the software side, using a unified PC-based control system is the catalyst to leverage the full power of modern multicore processors to simplify the control architecture and process algorithms centrally. With such software, real-time tasks can be distributed to different processor cores. For example, the PLC run time can run on one core, while motion control and HMI, respectively, run in a second and third core. Tasks are individually assigned to a core, and utilization ratios of those cores can be specified individually. Using this "core isolation" makes individual cores "invisible" to the operating system (OS), enabling them to be used exclusively by real-time automation and controls tasks. Resources on those isolated cores are then fully available for the control software to use for algorithm processing, motion control, communications, or other functions. The OS only can use the core(s) assigned to it and, therefore, the isolated core(s) can be used by the unified software without influence from the OS. Multicore utilization and isolation is quickly configured from within the programming environment.
Faster setup
Optimum utilization of PC processing power can be achieved with a motion control toolset. Repetitious and laborious programming of individual drives has been an optional activity for several years. Available software makes it possible to program and parameterize all drives on a machine on the central controller as far back as in the 90s. With more recent advancements, the capacity of a standard PC CPU enables the position control loop to be calculated on the central controller, rather than in a separate motion control CPU or motion card. In this case, servo drives or stepper drives only need the ability to close the current and torque loop, while closing the position loop in the programming software. This makes it possible to use more cost-effective drives that have a smaller footprint, as well as facilitating easier gearing of an axis or the ability to electronically cam axes together. This can eliminate costly mechanical devices and makes the system far more flexible than is possible with mechanical cams. This power and flexibility make it possible to position many axes simultaneously, add robot kinematics, and execute interpolated motion based on G-code, all concurrently on one PC-based controller. These motion tasks can run on the same controller, either on separate CPU cores or on the same CPU core, all executed in real time. This eliminates the need for separate motion control hardware and logic control hardware. In addition to previously mentioned methods, these can be programmed using a wide range of available software tools, including the typical PLC programming languages, PLC Open function blocks, C++, and more.
Condition monitoring
Another example where central control reduces the amount of required hardware is in the area of condition monitoring. Among other tasks, these systems can record vibrations of motor bearings, shafts, or other mechanical parts of the machine. This data is analyzed to detect wear and damage to machine operations or hardware before a breakdown occurs. Traditionally, condition monitoring is also accomplished using specialized black box hardware that processes the signals with a typically limited feature set. If more functionality is needed, additional hardware modules often must be added to the system, complicating matters in the ways discussed previously. Alternatively, by using more standard signal input devices, additional functionality or processing algorithms can be added in software rather than in highly specialized hardware. It's possible to gather condition monitoring data via I/O terminals that have the same physical format, network, and software environment as "regular" analog and digital I/O.
Outsmarting dedicated "smart" devices
Powerful centralized controllers combined with smart software and a deterministic network such as EtherCAT enable engineers to add other kinds of devices to the primary network that were perhaps more difficult to integrate in the past, such as temperature controllers. Temperature control is another example of a solution traditionally implemented using stand-alone black box hardware that is connected to a thermocouple as an input and has an output to control the heater/cooler. This piece of hardware typically has only a few navigation buttons, but many parameters that must be set to work optimally for the application. Often, these settings are set in the controller by the machinery OEM and the documentation of these settings can be difficult to properly manage and use in the long run when it's needed most. Selecting an EtherCAT master in software and using standard EtherCAT I/O hardware in this temperature control example will give access to hardware device parameters from within the same development environment used for the overall automation and controls programming.
This also facilitates access to the slave devices' parameter "start-up lists." Once an EtherCAT slave device is configured, those parameters can then be moved into the start-up list. This list of parameters, and their values, will be automatically loaded into the device as the EtherCAT network is initialized. This will happen either on power up of the controller or upon manual reactivation. Replacement of an EtherCAT device is as simple as powering down the equipment and installing the new device. Once the machine is powered up, the parameters will be restored to the new device, greatly reducing equipment downtime.
Additionally, by bringing the parameterization of the hardware as well as the control logic into a powerful, software-based platform, other useful benefits become available to the OEM and end user. For example, programming software can integrate seamlessly with revision control software such as Microsoft Team Foundation Server, GIT, or subversion software. This means that once parameter values have been decided on and stored in the start-up list, the device settings can be archived and revisions controlled along with other project elements such as the PLC program, safety configuration, or even servo drive settings. This archive of the parameters can be imported and applied to future projects using that device type. This extends the strategy of code reuse further than PLC function blocks, all the way down to device configuration, which enables much more efficient use of engineering time.
Streamlined architecture
Machine architectures will always require a wide range of different field devices. At the beginning of system design, however, engineers should select a core control platform that minimizes complexity. It is most efficient to program as much system functionality for as many devices as possible in as few software platforms as possible-ideally, just one. It is also critical to leverage one system-wide network that does not require managed switches and routers, which is driven by one software platform on one hardware controller. Specifying the devices to be used on that network should always allow the reuse of parameterizations and enable automatic re-parameterization upon hardware replacement, while sending the data back to a central controller for processing. Following these points during system design will improve the odds of success and competitive advantages through enhanced architecture simplicity. More streamlined hardware and networking architectures are inherently easier to implement, support, and maintain.

text: Call the Midwife: Jenny leaves Nonnatus House After a heart wrenching episode, which saw us say farewell to Jenny's boyfriend Alec, the midwife leaves the East End for the Motherhouse Comments Written By Ellie Walker-Arnott 9:00 PM, 09 February 2014 Well, what an episode that was. After last week's lighthearted worries about those fake theatre tickets, it came as a bit of a shock. One minute Jenny and Alec's biggest problem was the prim and proper midwife not being able to say the words 'I love you' and the next we were at Alec's funeral and waving goodbye to Jenny Lee. The episode started off with Alec asking Jenny if she'd like to go away for the weekend to Brighton. A delighted Jenny quickly set about buying herself a new dress, but before long she began to worry about Alec's intentions, and whether or not they were honourable. All that paled into insignificance though when Alec suffered a great fall at work. Doctor Turner tried his hardest to help Jenny's boyfriend, but he couldn't save his left foot. And soon the situation worsened, as Jenny was told to rush to hospital to see an ailing Alec, only to be told he'd already passed away when she arrived. It was an episode which will likely have shocked and chocked up many Midwife fans, as Jenny tried to come to terms with her loss before deciding to leave Nonnatus House all together. "Grief manifests itself in many complex ways," says Jessica Raine, who plays Jenny Lee. "There's a period of horror, numbness and awful realisation that he's not coming back. And of course guilt that she never really gave herself to him in the way he wanted." "In the end, she feels she needs some time out from Nonnatus House to recoup," she added. So we ended up saying goodbye to two of our favourite familiar faces this week. Episode five and the future of the show feels a little bleak. Let's just hope Jenny isn't at the Motherhouse for too long... Watch our interview with Jessica and Leo Staar: Call the Midwife continues on Sunday at 8:00pm on BBC1. Follow @RadioTimes Like this?

Namco Bandai put out a new trailer for Dragonball: Ultimate Tenkaichi today, and not only does it show off epic battles with mainstay villains Frieza, Cell, and Buu, but it also had appearances from one-off movie villains like Metal Cooler, Janemba, and kaiju-alike Hirudegarn. The game's character creation mode, which we talked about last month, also gets a spotlight.
More so than the actual game, I'd like to see the re-animated scenes from the series. Make sure you turn your subwoofer way up so that when Goku goes Super Saiyan, your windows rattle. That's an accurate DBZ experience. Anybody else picking this up on Friday?

It's no secret that computer literacy is fast becoming a basic necessary skill in almost all of today's industries. Not only is it a means to enhance the productivity within organisations, the seemingly limitless amount of information on the internet has literally left us with the world at our fingertips.
Education itself is at a shift, now it's not about how much you know, but rather how well you can find the answers. Information and access to information has become the focal point. Unfortunately many of the Sri Lankan youth do not have access to such sources. Due to financial constraints at their schools, young Sri Lankans are growing up in the shadow of such economic depravity – limited resources means limited opportunities when they grow older.
Requirements for a Hanthana School Lab
A Hanthana School Lab will consist of the following items:
2. Working network (100mbps unmanaged Ethernet switch + cables)
3. Electrical wiring
4. Printer
Other items
2. Chairs
Special items
A multimedia projector will be donated only if the sponsor agrees. Hanthana prefers to donate the multimedia projector after an assessment.
Knowledge transferring
The purpose of the Hanthana Schools project is simple. It aims to operate a fully functional computer laboratory at every school in Sri Lanka. It is ambitious, but the aspirations of the people behind this project hardly measure against the young school kids of today. If it is one thing that is embedded into Sri Lankan culture it is the desire to learn, there will never be a shortage of curiosity and enthusiasm in the children of today's schools.
Hanthana is an open source software dedicated to bridging the gap between computers, affordability and local language and has been well received across many rural schools in Sri Lanka. The Hanthana team is driven and always will be driven by the community with the fundamental idea that information should always be shared. Hanthana Schools Labs project is a non-profit organisation and relies solely on the community who helped the organisation's attempts to achieve its goals.
While the initiative to provide computer labs for schools project is going forward as planned, a project to bring PCs in the classroom for primary schools was held as a pilot project was held at the Malalgoda Siriseewali Primary School. Hanthana Linux was introduced to the school children of the Malalgoda Siriseewali Primary school which is located in the Habaraadoowa Educational zone of the Imadhoowa Provincial Council within the Galle District on the 30 January 2012.
This school had been closed down for around one year and was re opened on the 16 January 2012 under the 1,000 schools initiative. The school comprises of 15 students, a Grade 1 class teacher, an English teacher and the principal.
The opening was made possible entirely due to the work done by the locals and the parents, the majority of whom are estate workers and private sector employees. Another special point to highlight here is that a family, whose father is a labourer and the mother employed as a house keeper abroad, donated the PC which was worth about Rs. 12,000.
Upon inquiring from the mother, she said that had her child had to go to another school (due to this school being closed down), they will have to spend Rs. 1,200 a month on three wheeler charges which adds up to around Rs. 12,000 a year and rather than spending that amount just for travelling, she was happier to spend it on a PC for her child as well as other children for the their education.
Far thinking parents of these schools such as her were instrumental in getting Hanthana Linux installed and helping improve primary education. Another point that needs to highlighted is that other parents who labour during the day, spent sleepless nights dedicated to maintaining and repairing the school buildings and equipment. These villages personify 'lead by example' from the sacrifices they make to educate their children.
On the first day Hanthana was used for the primary education several noteworthy events took place. As there was only one PC, the multimedia projector of the Habaraaduwa Educational Zone Office was used in the class to illustrate the theories for the various subjects using the Educational Software Packages that comes with Hanthana Linux, especially during the 'Identifying Colours' lesson.
In contrast to other occasions, the children took part in the lesson most enthusiastically and constantly requested their teacher to allow them to use these software by themselves.
This bought many a happy tear to the eyes of the Director of Education of the Habaradoowa Educational Zone, who attended the occasion and greatly pleased the principal and the parents who were present.
"I'm hungry, I'm hungry…" the lunch time grumble that comes up every day was not be heard on this day as the kids were so engrossed with computer aided lessons.
The teachers agreed that teaching subject concepts and theory using the educational software were extremely easy as opposed to other methods. Even after the school ended, the children were still in class on this day.
As the students are the focal point in the educational system within the school, a single PC and multimedia projector is hardly sufficient. There should be at least a PC for every four students for this to properly work out. In areas such as these where the majority of the people are low income earners, the parents hardly has the capability to sponsor the required number of PCs and equipment. External sponsorship is highly important for cases like these.
A qualitative school education system helps the whole nation to grow. Therefore the Hanthana community is committed to the task of building the school IT education using Hanthana Linux through the Hanthana School Labs Project and they hope that more people would join them to support their cause.

Gold Dots are the only ones so far that jammed in mine.
As mentioned by another, Ruger says no +P, so watch what you buy. My wife and daughter both carry the LCP (my wife's used to be my BUG until she tried it at the range). They carry Speer Gold Dots, Hornady Critical Defense or Corbon standard JHPs - whichever is available at any given time. All function flawlessly in their guns, and all the research I've done (which was quite a bit before I was comfortable with them carrying a 380) shows these to be the top 3 in standard pressure 380 defense ammo.
Hornady CD. Mine won't eat Cor-Bon.
On a side note, my wife can't rack the slide on my LCP, but she handles the Glocks and the Walther just fine.

Wed. November 24, 2010 | Eduardo A. Encina
TAMPA — Jefferson quarterback Quentin Williams can dodge a tackler with a swivel of his hips, fling a 50-yard touchdown pass with a flick of his right wrist.
The Dragons senior makes it look easy on the football field, but ask Williams about his assault on the state record books, and all sense of comfort vanishes.
Jefferson (11-0) hosts Pasco (11-0) in Friday's Class 3A region semifinals, and with Williams' next touchdown pass — his 101st — he will become the state's record holder for career touchdown passes.
With 47 touchdown throws this season, he's also four from the Hillsborough County single-season TD pass record owned by Plant's Aaron Murray (51).
And Williams is just 426 yards away from Tim Tebow's state career passing yardage mark.
But when asked about being on the brink of becoming the most prolific passer in state history, Williams shifts nervously.
"I never really thought about it like that, I just play for my boys," said Williams, beginning to rattle off a laundry list of his teammates. "I don't worry about any records. I play for them. I'm doing my thing for them. We've got one goal, and that's winning state. We want that ring."
Williams has tried to keep his focus on the greater task, leading the Dragons to their first state title. But there is talk all around about his personal quest, from his teammates placing pictures of him and Tim Tebow on Facebook to kids recognizing him last weekend when he went to watch his future college team, Bethune-Cookman, play in the Florida Classic.
"He seems to me like he does get a little shy when you talk to him about that kind of stuff," Jefferson coach Mike Fenton said. "He'd rather talk about how they're gonna win the next week, which I guess is a good quality. He's always been like that. He's very level headed. He's always on the same keel.
"I think he handles it great. Of course it's a great honor. It's something he can keep with him the rest of his life, but his major concern is winning every week. He's not concerned about it."
Williams remained fixed on the postseason and not touchdown passes. Since the postseason began, he said he watches the Times' Friday Night Rewind video from Jefferson's state semifinal loss at Pensacola before he goes to sleep every night.
"I switched it up a bit," Williams said. "Other than that, everything else is the same."
But Williams said he will truly relax once the record book talk is over.
"I can't wait until it's over," he said. "Even my momma talks about it all the time. It's all good. It's fine. But I want to get it over with, just because you hear about it all the time."

So Close To a Pull-Up..
Are you "So Close" to a pull-up? Do you feel like it's within reach but has still eluded you despite your most sincere efforts? Below are three things I think will help folks who are close to pulling body weight get over the bar.
Start with Chin-Ups
Chin-ups are easier than pull-ups and you're more likely to get your first chin-up sooner than your first pull-up so it's a pretty good place to start. In my experience once a couple chins have been developed the pull-up magically shows up a lot faster. That being said, both versions are totally legit and huge milestones for anyone who didn't have them before. Chins are also easier for people to organize well. The upper arm is already rotated into a more stable position and the last few inches over the bar usually involve less neck craning and wiggling. Once you can do about 3-5 chin-ups you'll be a Lot closer (if not already there) to the pull-up. When performing chin-ups, keep your hands just inside shoulder width and imagine pulling the bar down to your chest, not pulling yourself up to it. That cue usually helps people fire the upper back and pull the elbows posteriorly during the ascent, both good things.
Keep The Reps Low
If you're struggling to get your first pull-up, your muscles experience the effort as a near maximal exertion. You're going for something that you'll only be able to do 1 rep of (right now), so when we train to develop our first pull-up a lot of our reps should look and feel pretty similar. Several doubles or singles with just enough resistance to clear the bar is better than high volume sets of 5 or 10 with much more assistance. If you were a 1 rep max obsessed lifter, you wouldn't spend all your time doing sets of 5 and 10, you'd perform submax singles, doubles and triples more often to get your body ready for the effort. Here are two examples of productive training sessions:
7 sets of 1 rep with ample rest
5 sets of 2-3 reps with ample rest
"Ample Rest" could be anywhere from a minute to three minutes depending on how much you require to get another successful rep. Because this is going to be a strain, make sure to warm-up with some ring rows and more heavily assisted pull-ups. 2-3 sets of 5 reps should be sufficient.
When you're scaling workouts, use the lowest volume option possible. 20 Kipping pull-ups as Rxd on the workout might be 5 chin-ups for you. That component of the workout won't have anywhere near the same conditioning effect but depending on your goals that might be okay.
That being said, a little volume isn't a bad thing. Just remember that if you want to get a pull-up you've got to train in a way that feels similar to your goal.
Resistance Matters
While the big jump-stretch bands can be a valuble tool in this process, they shouldn't the only or even the majority of assistance you use. In my opinion, having a good spotter is ideal. Someone who knows how to give you just enough help to make you finish the rep without any jerky movement, uneven assistance or too much pushing. You've got good hands on you if you never get "stuck" anywhere in the rep but still work really hard at the most difficult positions (the very top and the first few inches at the bottom). The range of motion should be smooth and you should be able maintain good organization throughout. Another option is using a band just below what you can do on your own and having a partner gently push you through the finish. Depending on the size, height and strength of everyone involved, sometimes this is a more practical solution and can lead to better spotting. If you're working with someone who is not a coach or giving you too much/too little/weird help, tell them what you feel and work together to make it better. One major problem with bands alone is that at the top of a rep you're getting the least help since the band tension decreases as you ascend. If you're flying solo, choose a band that helps you get all the way over the bar, not just enough so that when you reach your chin can barely make it over the bar. That's a no rep.
Hopefully these three tips can help you find some success with getting your first pull-up. Make your goal to not only do it, but do it well. If you train smart in the beginning and pay attention to your neck and shoulder positions you'll develop a solid foundation to build off of. If you make your emphasis simply getting any sliver of your chin over the bar, things will be a lot slower and less awesome for you. To see exactly what I'm talking about, watch this MobilityWOD: Stop The Pull-Up Chicken Necking People

This is a discussion on WW Ranger 130STX 38spec. within the Defensive Ammunition & Ballistics forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; After firing and testing this ammo in make shift test of 3-4 water jugs of empty milk jugs covered with two layers of old denim ...
After firing and testing this ammo in make shift test of 3-4 water jugs of empty milk jugs covered with two layers of old denim jeans over the first. They seem to perform very well on the jugs and wet rag bullet stop. With .55 to .60 expansion for 5 rds. A limited test,but they seem to perform as expected very good. Now I have to save the empty milk jugs a few months again. Crono out of test gun a 2" SW J-frame 819fps to 828fps. Penatration on the jugs pass,s the 12" standard. Seems to be a good carry CCW load. I don,t see or hear to much about the WW ranger line other than the 9mm 127+P+ load or the 45acp 230 stx loads. Anybody hear anything about this load on the street?
I think you meant to say SXT (Supreme Expansion Technology)?
From what I've read, this is Winchester's version of Speer's 135 grain Gold Dot JHP short barrel loading. Performance should be about equal.
The Speer load is known to work well; no reason to believe the Winchester load wouldn't work just as well.
I shoot Gold Dots in my M60, but that's mainly because I can buy it locally. For some reason, nobody around here sells Winchester ammo (other than white box sold at WalMart).
When youre wounded and left on Afghanistans plains,
And the women come out to cut up what remains,
Just roll to your rifle and blow out your brains,
And go to your God like a soldier.

We observe a strong modification of the emission properties of a rhodamine monolayer bonded to the surface of a 1D PhC. The photoluminescence signal observed at is enhanced by more than 1 order of magnitude at the angle where the emitters are evanescently coupled to a Bloch surface wave supported by the structure. These results may be important for the design of efficient light-emitting devices and of optical sensors.

The biggest Bible publishers in this highly competitive business guard their sales data closely, but reliable industry sources estimate that 2007 saw about 25 million Bibles sold, generating revenues of about $770 million in the United States alone. That was an increase of more than 26 percent since 2005, which saw U.S. sales of about $609 million. In fact, the Bible-publishing business has been enjoying a healthy compounded growth rate of close to 10 percent per year for several years. Even during the high point of economic crisis in late 2008, when other book sales were hurting badly, Bible sales continued to boom, with an estimated $823.5 million that year. Indeed, Bible publishing tends to thrive during times of war and financial disaster. Although its too early to know for sure as I write, it may well turn out that the latest economic bust will be another boom time for Bible business.
Could it be that biblical literacy is being replaced by biblical consumerism? In todays consumer culture, we are what we buy, wear, and carry. We identify ourselves by our patterns of consumer choices, by the market niches we buy into. Its gone beyond that post-Cartesian proof of existence, I shop, therefore I am. Today, its closer to I shop for what I am. The culture industry makes and markets identities. I want to be outdoorsy, so I buy a lot of Gore-Tex, some Life is good shirts, and a Yakima rack for my Subaru. High school and college students identify the cultures on different campuses by brands: this school is very Hollister; that ones more American Apparel.
At the same time, we consumers are convinced that the shortest route to self-improvement is through new products. Products change lives, right? My big New Years resolution might be to become an organized person. So the first thing I do is go to the home store and buy a bunch of plastic boxes. Never mind the empty ones in my basement that I bought a year ago.
Or say that I want to strengthen my identity as a Christian and grow deeper in my faith. I want a more God-centered life. I want to be in the Word. I feel like I should be reading the Bible a lot more than I do. After all, like most people, I believe that the Bible is Gods Word, that its totally correct in all of its teachings, and that it holds the answers to all of lifes most basic questions. So what do I do? Buy a Bible. Or, more likely, buy another Bible. A marketing executive at a major evangelical publishing company told me that, according to their research, the average Christian household owns nine Bibles and purchases at least one new Bible every year.

Alexander McQueen is undoubtedly one of our most, if not our most, exciting designers. His love of fabric and his innate understanding of what you can do with it are always a pleasure to behold. As usual he didn't disappoint with his new collection which hit the runways of Milan at the week-end.
The trademark sharp tailoring was of course present and the silhouette doesn't seem to have changed much from previous seasons: still square cut shoulders, shaped waists and slim legs. But then, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
Brocade, another McQueen favourite was also present. This season he has perhaps been holidaying in the Andes as the overall look had a certain Mayan/ Alpacan feel to it with its hats, fringes and shaggy furs.
All in all it had plenty of drama but more than it's fair share of wearable pieces.

"We're excited. We lost to Maryland nine straight times so you get to change the course of your path. We like that a lot."
"A lot of guys did key things at different times. Calvin was really good at certain times around the rim. If we can keep him around the basket he's just a difficult player to guard."
"Lorenzo Brown was super. Nine assists, one turnover. I thought he was sensational."
"Good win I think against a good team. I think by they are going to get better and better. When we get to the end of February we are going to see Maryland as a really good basketball team with what Mark is doing."
"Late in the game even when he gets the funny bone hit – he still hasn't miss a foul shot yet. He's been really, really good."
"We threw a couple of things at [Stoglin]. He's a really good player. He's a good 3-point shooter, good driver. He's strong so when he gets into the paint he leans in and there's some contact there and its really hard to guard him. He initiates it."
"CJ Williams, Alex, Lorenzo – those three guys I think collectively did a really good job on him. He still gets 25 but I think its a tough 25. He had to earn them."
"They were really excited to play. The last couple of days our practices were terrific. Zoned in, really listening to what you were saying. You can tell when there is that pep in the step and there was some of that the last couple of days."
"We did lose our concentration just a little a bit, that's where we have to be better. We have a nine-point lead I think with three minutes to go and we have to take that nine to 12 or 14 or 15 instead of down to four or five."
"Outside of that I think our guys were really focused in."
"I'm not going to hide from my dreams. That's our goals – I'm not afraid of it and I'm not afraid to say it. Now I've also said its a tall order for our team. Let's be real honest. Keep our eye on the ball now and remember where we've been. And I think we all in this room know where this program has been."
"I didn't come here to play in anything but the NCAA Tournament. Now whether we can get there or not that's a whole other story. And we probably do have a long, long way to go. But I'm not going to hide from that."
"Our guys understand, and we talk to them all the time about it. Each game counts as one."

Romeo & Juliet
Romeo & Juliet
The given project required me to communicate what I understood to be the most interesting aspects of Shakespeare's Romeo & Juliet to an audience. After the several mental processes and drawing experiments, the final outcome was expected to be two adverts which utilised the existing formats from the London Underground.I was asked to create the images under one of the main themes we had defined during the class and I chose "fate" for my illustrations.
Because I thought "love" and "death" are also essential elements to compose this play, I created two main characters to express those key terms by showing their feeling and situation with bird cage.
In the image, Juliet is about to take off her mask because by falling love with Romeo, she is becoming herself. On the other hand, to make the strong contrast between love and death, Romeo is holding the mask of death which implies his fate.
What I always try to do with my work is to express the atmosphere and characters emotions with the colour scheme. I hope my works make you feel and think something.

Rony Monzon has a story for the ages, and we are happy to hear that it has a happy ending. The 13-year old saved his female friend from being shot by rival gunfire in the blood-soaked streets of Chicago. Gun violence from Chicago gangs has gotten out of control, and too many kids are being affected. Thanks to Rony, his girlfriend is going to live a long and prosperous life, have children and grow to enjoy adulthood. But some ruthless gang members almost put an end to it on that fateful day.
WhatTheHayell.com tells more:
Rony Monzon is being called a hero by the city of Chicago after taking a hail of bullets in order to save one of his friends from gunfire. The 13-year old boy was on the front porch with Daneysi Valdovinos when they were caught in the middle of gunfire between two rival gang members. This led to a barrage of bullets being shot in the air, and the boy being hit several times.
Monzon took bullets in the arm, chest, hip and hands. The incident took place on the West Side of Chicago.
"Once I got in the house, I checked myself and I saw blood…and I was very scared," said Monzon. "I was like – I'm gonna die."
Daneysi Valdovinos, who is a girl, was sitting with Monzon when the gunfire began. They were both rushed to Mount Sinai Hospital's intensive care unit.

Site: Ann Arbor, Mich. (Cliff Keen Arena)
Event: Coke/Michigan Invitational
Score: #22 Michigan 3, Eastern Michigan 0 (25-13, 25-20, 25-18)
Records: U-M (11-1), EMU (10-4)
Attendance: 1,696
Next U-M Event: Friday, Sept. 14 -- vs. Western Kentucky - Coke/Michigan Invitational (Cliff Keen Arena), 7:30 p.m.
ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- The 22nd-ranked University of Michigan volleyball team used 17 kills from junior Lexi Erwin (Spring, Texas/Woodlands College Park) and 42 assists from sophomore Lexi Dannemiller (West Chester, Ohio/Lakota West) to defeat Eastern Michigan, 25-13, 25-20, 25-18, in the first match of the Coke/Michigan Invitational Friday (Sept. 14) in front of 1,696 at Cliff Keen Arena. The match was a part of U-M first-ever "Block Out Bullying" event.
Erwin was joined in double-digit kills by junior Molly Toon (Middleton, Wis./Middleton), who had 11 terminations. Freshman Tiffany Morales (Redondo Beach, Calif./Redondo Union) had 14 digs and Toon joined junior Jennifer Cross (Scarborough, Onatrio/Birchmount Collegiate Park) with three assisted blocks.
Michigan hit a blistering .517 in the first set, led by Erwin's six, to take the opener 25-13. A Cross service ace gave the Wolverines an 8-4 lead, but the Eagles came back to tie the game at 11. The Maize and Blue then went on a 6-0 run off the serves of Toon and freshman Lindsey Lerg (Farmington Hills, Mich./Mercy). Michigan added a 4-0 mini run to take a 22-12 lead, capped by a Cross kill. U-M closed out the set on a Dannemiller kill and EMU ball-handling error.
Eastern Michigan came out in the second set and led 9-8, but Michigan came back and took a 13-10 lead on an Eagle ball-handling error. An Erwin kill gave Michigan an 18-14 lead and a termination from freshman Kelly Murphy (Marietta, Ga./Walton) made it 21-17. Fifth-year senior Claire McElheny (Westfield, Ind./Brebeuf Prep) ended the second set with a kill, giving U-M the 25-20 win and the 2-0 advantage in the match.
Michigan raced out to a 7-1 advantage in the third set, holding at least a five-point cushion the rest of the set in a 25-18 victory to clinch the sweep. U-M once again relied on the hot hitting of Erwin, who put down seven kills on nine swings, with Toon chipping in six terminations on eight attempts. The Wolverines hit .412 in the frame to EMU's .167.
Michigan hosts Western Kentucky Friday night (Sept. 14) at 7:30 p.m. in match four of the Coke/Michigan Invitational.

Coming off a dreadful Monday night performance, the Bears expect to have the quarterback not named Jason Campbell under center this weekend. Jay Cutler will have his No. 1 receiver, Brandon Marshall , with him. Cutler sat out Monday's loss to the 49ers because of a concussion. But according to CBS Sports' Jason La Canfora, Cutler has "met concussion protocol to this point," and he was limited in practice Thursday. He has not yet been cleared for game action, but he's closing in on it.
Marshall is nursing a shoulder injury, but the Bears are just trying to gear him up for the day that matters. He was also limited during Thursday's practice and is expected to play his usual role versus the Vikings.
Fantasy Analysis:
Marshall will be fine and should be bolted to your starting lineup. As he showed on Monday night, he can still give you decent points even when the Bears' offense is a total wreck.
I don't want to jump the gun with Cutler because it could turn into a Alex Smith situation where "he's going to play, he's going to play, he's going to play," and then he is a late scratch. But if Cutler is available, he is a fine QB2 against a defense that has allowed the third-most fantasy points to quarterbacks this season.

Tent city
The cobblestone streets in front of Westminster Abbey have been transformed into a sea of red, white and blue.
that more than a thousand eager wedding watchers have already set up across from the Cathedral. Many of the onlookers have already been there for days, and are toting everything from tents to gazebos to deal with any potential turn in the weather.
Official wedding programme released
Royal fans can now download the official programme for Kate and Will's wedding.
As announced on the Official Royal Wedding website
, the program will serve as a cheat sheet for millions around the world and contains a personal message from the couple, a new photo of the pair taken by photographer Mario Testino, and more. While the program is
, 150,000 copies of the commemorative booklet will be sold for £2 at several locations across London on Friday.
Best dressed
Even with last week's controversy surrounding
Prime Minister David Cameron's choice of wardrobe
for the wedding, it seems like his outfit choice may be overshadowed. Larry,
is looking awfully dapper in preparation for the Downing Street royal party that will happen tomorrow.
Ceremonial tweeting
claimed that the Royal family will be installing signal blockers to prevent cellphone use in Westminster Abbey during the wedding ceremony,
that both the Scotland Yard and the Metropolitan Police denied anything of the sort. "The story is not true, rubbish," a police spokesman said.
Kate and Will make their musical choices
The musical choices for Friday's Royal Wedding are a combination of the old and the new. The couple's wedding service music was
via the
Official Royal Wedding website
on Thursday. As the website says, "the music has a largely British theme," with their choices blending traditional music with some newly commissioned pieces. Lengthier than the average wedding, Friday's affair will have more than 20 different musical pieces. Included in these choices is the processional march "I was Glad" by Sir Charles Hubert Hastings Parry, which will accompany Kate Middleton in her final walk as a commoner.

Ryan Lane, 20, of Bangor, is charged with burglary to a motor vehicle, theft, and violation of bail. Police say Lane was going through cars on Parkview Avenue early Monday morning and taking things out of them. Members of the East Side Watch reportedly saw Lane and called police. Group members also posted about it on Facebook. Police arrested Lane and returned the stolen items.

Multnomah University prepares students for meaningful careers that serve Jesus whether they're called to traditional ministry or the marketplace.
Stay connected to our community and help the next generation of Christian leaders become agents of positive change, whether they're serving across the street or across an ocean.
Multnomah's president, Dr. Dan Lockwood, announced at chapel on Thursday, September 25, that Multnomah's new student center project will be named after former Multnomah faculty member and president, Dr. Joe Aldrich. The decision was approved by the Board of Trustees at its September 22 meeting.
Dr. Joseph C. Aldrich, affectionately known as Dr. Joe, served as the school's third president, from 1978-1997. His heart for evangelism is well known among his friends and peers. Even today he continues to practice the "Lifestyle Evangelism" that he writes about in his popular book about reaching others for Christ.
The Joseph C. Aldrich Student Commons will be a complete remodel and 10,000+ square foot addition to the existing student commons building on campus. The commons project is slated to begin next fall, and will house the cafeteria, an enlarged café, and a commuter lounge for students. The newly remodeled cafeteria will also serve as a multi-purpose room for banquets and other campus events. Additional offices including the health services center, post office, and student government offices will be housed in the facility as well.
"One of the main reasons why God has been able to use Joe in some very significant ways is because of his genuine humility. One of his favorite lines when complimented is 'God can draw a straight line with a crooked stick,'" Dennis Fuqua, executive director of alumni relations and director of International Renewal Ministries at Multnomah, said.
Students, staff, and faculty alike are delighted to honor Dr. Joe through the Joseph C. Aldrich Student Center.

Early Doors has reverted to childhood, sticking its finger in its ears and pretending that last night's dirge against the Serbia B team simply did not happen.
England did, however, score a marvellous victory against the odds to down a world-leading side in a triumph in the face of adversity, a display of true grit from the underdog.
It was led by the phoenix-like rising from the flames of a man long written off as a has-been who never achieved his potential thanks to a poor attitude and the feeling he had made it while all around him improved to seemingly unattainable heights.
Mark Lewis-Francis was the fastest teenager in the world some years ago, quicker aged 18 than Asafa Powell and the since-disgraced Justin Gatlin, men who dominated the scene before freak-of-nature Usain Bolt turned up.
But MLF somehow got slower with age, served a ban for testing positive for cannabis (of all things!) and - at the Helsinki World Championships in 2005 - was so fat that he seemed to be running backwards and reportedly needed an emergency re-fit of the running kit he had swelled beyond.
The Birmingham athlete had his funding revoked, was widely mocked by the British media and could barely break 10.3 seconds. He was finished, washed up, another semi-tragic story that epitomised the decline of UK track athletics.
But hot on the heels of a shock European silver this summer he is invigorated, confident, slim(ish) and a Commonwealth gold medallist after doing the un-doable by overhauling a clear deficit to a Jamaican to romp home and win the 4x100m relay for England.
Jamaica were stunned and so was ED.
The naysayers will point to the absence of Bolt and Powell, but Britain's fastest man - Dwain Chambers - was AWOL too, banned from these Games, while relay regulars Simeon Williamson, Harry Aikines-Aryeetey and James DeSalou were also unavailable.
And to those to scoff at the Commonwealths because the dubiously-pumped Yanks aren't there should remember that - Bolt or no Bolt - Jamaica are the world and Olympic champions, with the USA dropping the ball (or baton) in recent years.
So hurrah for England and for Mark Lewis-Francis: and also for the girls, who pulled off a similar surprise in winning their event. Whoop!
It was a decent day for Scotland in Delhi too, as two shooting golds boosted an impressive tally to six.
Unlike England, ED will refer to their football team, as they were the only home nation to emerge with any real credit last night.
Even the defeat was fitting - had Fernando Llorente not scored that late winner, it simply would not have been Scotland.
If only the Scots had showed the same spirit, vigour and formation against a mediocre Czech side as they did against the world champions: they could, and should, have been looking at three points from two games, and not zilch.
The less said about Northern Ireland's draw at the Faroe Islands, the better. It matters not that they dominated the part-timers from the little island near Denmark, it matters not that the Faroese scored with their only opportunity of the game, which was a half-chance at that.
A team largely made up of Premier League and Championship players should be carving apart a side with less quality than a Blue Square South side. And to think they won in Slovenia and drew with Italy, dammit! It is a real blow given that a win would have put the Irish with a serious chance of second in the group.
Still, at least they're not Wales. Two of their four good (and available) players were absent and they suffered a mighty beating at the hands of a side hardly renowned for lashing the goals in.
Poor Brian Flynn has, much like Roy Hodgson at Liverpool, walked into a side stripped of confidence by a coach infamous for isolating his players. A permanent role should not be countenanced after the last two performances, but realistically is there anyone else, you ask?
ED thinks so, and it doesn't have to be a foreign import.
Wales can kiss any hopes of qualifying for Euro 2012 goodbye, but they do have some exciting young players, like Aaron Ramsey, Jack Collison and Simon Church: Gareth Bale is already the real deal.
That is the nucleus of a decent international side in four years or so, but it needs a coach willing not only to put faith in the kids but to take responsibility for their nurture and development.
Ryan Giggs, alas, is not an option: he still has a couple of years playing left, and he has no experience as a coach - which, at this stage, is vital.
Mark Bowen, however, is ripe for the challenge.
The Fulham assistant manager and former Wales left-back has an excellent reputation for his work on and off the pitch, having helped Steve Bruce take Birmingham to the Premier League, before becoming Mark Hughes's number two again at Blackburn, Manchester City and now the Whites.
ED says 'again' because Bowen also worked with Sparky on the Wales coaching team, when they were agonisingly close to qualifying for Euro 2004, beating Italy in qualifying and losing a play-off to Russia.
Bowen has over a decade of coaching experience, knows how to get results and knows the ropes - but can Wales tempt him away from the Mark Hughes comfort zone?
Okay, go on.
But it's not ED - Tony Mabert questions whether England's home fans are showing a touch too much impatience.
Could it be that that what Fabio Capello described as the "Wembley problem" when he took over may well be returning?
QUOTE OF THE DAY: "It was a disgrace. (Nigel De Jong) should be suspended for the duration of Hatem Ben Arfa's unavailability. I played at the highest level for 17 years and I never injured a player. You can see from the tackle that he is not playing for the ball. And even if we give him the benefit of the doubt, it is clear that he does not stop himself. Having seen his past, I would consider it an assault" - he may have won ze the World Cup, but Frank Lebeouf just can't stop talking rot.
FOREIGN VIEW: A fanatical football supporter has made the ultimate tribute to assassinated Colombia international Andres Escobar - by having the defender's shirt tattooed all over his body. It really is something, check out the pictures here.
COMING UP: It's a quiet day for live sport, although live comments and scoring from the Shanghai Masters tennis could whet your morning appetite. Award-winning blogger Jim White will no doubt be sticking a size nine into England later, while for fans of the genuinely beautiful game, Andy Mitten continues his excellent insight into Spanish football.

6 to 9 months Play
Your baby will use creeping, or bottom shuffling, as a way of getting around. It may not look pretty, but it will get him where he wants to go! Between seven to nine months, your baby may transition to proper crawling using his arms to power him along, but with a little practice he'll learn to move quickly and efficiently using his legs to do most of the work.
Your baby's fine motor skills at 9 months will be developing rapidly, and he'll be working hard to perfect the pincer move - using his thumb and pointing finger to pick up objects. At this age, he needs a variety of different types of toy to satisfy his curiosity and enhance his learning about his environment.
At this stage introduce:
Reasoning Toys
Your baby can now understand that a toy may be hidden inside or behind another toy, so choose toys that will encourage the development of his reasoning skills by making him work things out. Try toys like stacking cups, jack-in-the-box and cloth books
Physical development toys
You can encourage your baby to practice using his body in new ways by introducing toys that will get him moving. Try toys like balls and toys that rolls, give them a safe place to explore, household objects, eg. saucepans, lids, plastic cups.
Bath toys
Once he can sit up, he'll begin to love playing in the bath. Introducing toys that encourage water play will turn the bath into a popular playtime location. Raid your plastics drawer for cups and containers, funnels and bottles.
Always check toys for possible choking hazards.

"Of course."
"When are we going to stop calling them babies? They're two now, don't most people stop by now?"
"Never," I responded.
Baby. Babies. Bambinos. Baby references that period of time that is all too short in a person's life. Babies are those cute, cuddly, sweet-smelling, tiny humans that you become responsible for instantaneously. They know you better than anyone else can because they grew inside you. You know them like no one else can because you grew them inside you. Although the baby stage is short, I will forever have babies.
I dread the day when I have to let them grow and flourish on their own. I can only hope that by that time we've taught them to make good decisions, make responsible choices and to love. I know the best thing I can do for them is to learn to let go but that doesn't mean that I will stop making decisions because it's best for them or they will quit being my reason for living.
And because of that, my babies they'll be.
Plus, nothing tickles me more than walking in the front door and hearing Bug say, "Hey Baby," before I have a chance to say it to him.
