The Daily Caller Dials Up A Conspiracy
In the aftermath of the Justice Department's motion to block the proposed merger of AT&T and T-Mobile, conservatives in the media have begun attacking the Obama administration and alleging that DOJ's lawsuit was motivated by politics, and not by concern for consumer welfare.
The Daily Caller is doing their part to further the meme this afternoon, reporting [1] that AT&T executives are "confused -- shocked, even," and quoting two anonymous sources affiliated with AT&T suggesting that DOJ rushed out yesterday's complaint against the wireless giant because of "mounting political pressure" and to get ahead of AT&T's message on jobs. Indeed, one of their sources seemed to suggest, implausibly, that DOJ made their announcement yesterday in response to an AT&T jobs announcement from just hours earlier.
From the Daily Caller article:
According to two sources familiar with the matter, on Tuesday of this week -- the day before the complaint -- AT&T representatives and DOJ attorneys had a meeting in which they discussed the wireless company's proposal for its divestitures. Both sources told TheDC there was absolutely no hint or indication given from the DOJ during that meeting that the next day, they would file suit to block the merger.
"We were talking about setting up another meeting..." said one of the sources. "Not once did they say, 'Don't worry about it because we're going to block it tomorrow!'"
"When we got the media advisory, we thought 'This can't be us ... who else could it be?'" said the other source.
Then, on the Wednesday before DOJ filed suit to block the merger, AT&T announced that even with the merger, the company would retain up to 35,000 jobs -- a fact that was sure to become a major talking point for those pushing consolidation of the two companies.
At that point, the theory goes, folks at the DOJ decided to file a complaint before the "mounting political pressure was too insurmountable for them," as one source put it.
Another source familiar with the merger proceedings put the speculation another way, telling TheDC that the "jobs announcement yesterday caused them [DOJ] to move [more quickly] than they had intended."
The "jobs announcement" the Daily Caller's source referred to presumably was AT&T's announcement [2] that they would bring 5,000 outsourced call center jobs back to the U.S. upon approval of the merger. AT&T made that announcement early Wednesday morning, just hours before news of DOJ's lawsuit broke [3] around 10:30 a.m. Deputy attorney general James Cole and acting assistant attorney general Sharis Pozen held a press conference on the suit shortly after 11 a.m.
Art Brodsky, communications director for the public interest group Public Knowledge, dismissed the notion that the Justice Department rushed the civil complaint in response to AT&T's jobs announcement, noting that the case has been under "active consideration" since March. "There was nothing slapdash about this," Brodsky told Media Matters.
When asked about the timing of the complaint at yesterday's press conference, Pozen said: "We went through a lot of effort here; as I said, months of effort, worked thoroughly and carefully with the parties and concluded that this merger violated the law. And when we reach those conclusions we take actions. We wanted to clear up any uncertainty in the marketplace about this transaction."

Semester in Senegal Program
Program Overview
This is a program that emphasizes the strengthening of skills in the French language through immersion in the Francophone culture of Senegal, in West Africa. Senegal was first under the control of the Portuguese and the Dutch and then became a French colony in the 17th century. The program is located at the Suffolk University-Dakar campus and is operated by the Council for International Educational Exchange. Dakar is a city of great beauty and cultural depth with a population of about 2.5 million.
Course content
Students must have skills in the French language to be able to study at the Intermediate or Advanced level. Other courses are available in French, including Development Economics, History of Islam, and Crisis Management and International Law in Africa. Beginning courses in the local Wollof language may be taken.
Program features
Weeklong visit to rural area
Participation in African art, dance, and music
Visits to museums, a fishing village, and an artists' colony
Opportunities for community service and internships
The student will fill out two applications:
• George Fox off-campus application
• Council for International Education Exchange application
*The CIEE application should only be completed after being informed from the Director of Study Abroad that you are accepted for an off-campus study semester.
Students must be full-time undergraduates with junior or senior status, holding a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher to apply.
Because students remain enrolled at George Fox Univesity while participating at CIEE, academic credit is awarded by George Fox. Students will typically take between 15-16 credit hours. Students will be required to attend two pre-departure meetings, complete an online course evaluation, and attend a re-entry meeting upon their return. Students must see the transfer credit specialist in the Registrars office BEFORE they begin their semester off-campus. APPROVED FOR FRENCH MINORS.
Students live in a Senegalese home and strengthen their French skills by interacting with the family. They may also learn some Wollof from the family, the predominant local language. Home assignments are made on the basis of a questionnaire in advance and a consultation after arriving.
The student pays George Fox's standard tuition, room and board, and student fees (an additional fee is required to attend some programs). Participants continue to receive financial aid, including scholarships, since they are officially George Fox students. Round trip airfare is additional.

Brevard, N.C.- The Brevard College Tornados sent their 2012 seniors off on a high note with a 27-13 victory over the Newberry Wolves in the season finale on Saturday afternoon at Brevard Memorial Stadium.
The Tornados scored 21 unanswered points on three consecutive drives in the second half to earn their first South Atlantic Conference victory of the season.
Jordan Ollis capped an 11-play, 70-yard drive with a two-yard touchdown drive with 7:22 remaining in the 3rd quarter to give the Tornados a 13-6 lead. Ollis finished the game with 127 yards on the ground to lead all rushers.
BC's Billy Muscatello forced a fumble on Newberry's ensuing drive that the Tornados recovered on the Wolves 47-yard line.
Brevard took only eight plays to get the ball into the end zone, with freshman Dominique Lesine running in for the touchdown on 2nd-and-goal from the 5-yard line. Ben Noboa's kick attempt was wide to keep the game at 19-6.
The Tornados defense forced the Wolves to punt after a three-and-out on the drive following Lesine's touchdown.
After Newberry's Jojo Morris punted the ball into the end zone for a touchback, the Tornados moved the ball 80 yards in 10 plays for a touchdown. Jaquan Marsh found Andre Overholt with a 29-yard touchdown pass to cap the drive.
BC then converted a two-point conversion, with Overholt receiving the hand off and running right before passing to a wide-open Lesine in the end zone to make it 27-6.
The Wolves scored a touchdown to pull within 14 points with 2:26 remaining in the 4th quarter. Newberry then attempted an onside kick which the Tornados jumped on at the Newberry 46-yard line to seal the victory.
Senior defensive back Chris Jones gave the Tornados a 6-0 lead in the first quarter after intercepting a tipped pass from Newberry quarterback Michael Rentz and returning it 35-yards for a touchdown.
The pick by Jones was one of three turnovers forced by the Tornados, including the fumble recovery that led to the Lesine touchdown and a 4th-quarter interception by fellow senior Jarvis Wilson.
The victory marks the first time the Tornados have beaten Newberry College in program history after losing the first six matchups. The Tornados finish the season at 2-9 (1-6).

Did Kandi Burruss & Todd Tucker elope in Mexico with 'RHOA' cast?!
If rumors are true, Kandi Burruss is a married woman!
According to reports, she just tied the knot with beau, Todd Tucker, in Mexico and invited all of her Real Housewives Of Atlanta cast mates along for the ride!
Photos of the ladies on vacay have been popping up on Twitter all week long, but now a snapshot from Todd suggests they might be there for more than just relaxation. Todd posted a pic of a beachside alter along with a suspicious reflection. Here's to new beginnings!!! Life is good!!!"
Kandi posed in the same spot; fueling rumors they got hitched. So far, no word from the other housewives, but they have been posting some snapshots of their own. Kenya Moore, Cythia Bailey, Phaedra Parks and Porsha Stewart have all been spending time somewhere lovely. Looks like Mexico to us!
Time will tell if this really went down or if the ladies are pulling our leg to stir up buzz for their November 4 premiere.

LAX Shooting Update
LOS ANGELES (AP) — A Los Angeles airport police union spokesman says medical attention for a mortally wounded Transportation Security Administration officer was delayed because a
Marshall McClain, president of the Los Angeles Airport Peace Officers Association, said Friday the LAPD officer was standing in front of
It's unclear how the officer made that determination or whether he was qualified to do so.
The events unfolded on Nov. 1 after a gunman pulled a rifle from a duffel bag in the busy airport and targeted
Authorities finally went to aid Hernandez after helping other wounded victims. McClain says an airport police officer thought he detected a light pulse and immediately wheeled Hernandez out to paramedics — 33 minutes after he'd been shot.
McClain says he learned about the events by speaking with airport officers who were involved.

San Bernardino County Fire personnel are investigating an early morning garage fire in the 15900 block of Manzanita Drive that was reported by a good samaritan.
The fire was reported shortly after 6:15 a.m. Saturday by someone who was driving by the residence, said Otto Schramm, a dispatch supervisor with the San Bernardino County Fire Department.
The person who reported the fire "called us and then alerted the family who was inside," Schramm said.
Multiple occupants were in the house at the time and all were able to get out safely, he said.
The fire was out about 6:40 a.m.
Fire investigators were called to help determine the cause of the fire.
The Red Cross was also called to assist the family who might be displaced by the fire, Schramm said.

"Foster is the greatest investor in the history of journalism," Carlson told me.
"They control the nominating process—and every year they add a new ingredient to the litmus test," Carlson continued.
This month, Carlson launched a new site of his own, The Daily Caller, that employs a number of professional reporters.
"This is some serious stuff our team is dealing with," Carlson said at a news briefing.
"I think dating sites for people with disabilities is a terrible idea," says Carlson, in the same vein.
Carlson dismissed the reporter, and turned to the curious group.
"Batter not run the rapid so long you can walk, young man," said Carlson.
We go dare, me an' Carlson, she ma pardner, an' she say de gol' ees here.
Mrs. Carlson hesitated, drawing back a little when she saw his face.
So what do you intend to do—run out and turn it all over to Carlson?

This light is super bright and easy to mount, it stays right were you put it, it does not move because of the rubber material. It is also very versatile because you can put it on the handle bar and nobody will notice that it is not the place where it supposes to be.
Can this attach to a bag handle, or just a seat post?
This has a clip on the back that would attach to a loop on your bag.

I live in Seattle and was wondering if the light can be used in rain/light rain conditions.
Good news! This light is actually waterproof so you will be good to go!
The best rear light
After seeing how well my Light & Motion Urban 200 improved my commute it was an easy decision to upgrade my rear light to the Light & Motion Vis 180 Micro. It is extremely bright, has excellent side visibility, and the high pulse mode puts it over the top. A no brainier for commuters.

By analyzing existing data, NIJ researchers are developing better ways to help officers and analysts use hot spot techniques to identify future clusters of crime.
The main purpose of the project, A Comprehensive Multigeographic Analysis of Hot Spot Techniques, is to help analysts anticipate future hot spots given that the hot spots are affected by the geographic characteristics of their jurisdiction, such as density.
Researchers are:
The result will be a menu of techniques that will give law enforcement an improved toolkit for identifying, predicting and responding to hot spots for different types of crime that take place within in a specific jurisdiction. These techniques will be applicable to hot spots in varying urban structures — dense urban centers, widespread suburban areas and large rural areas.

"Oh please, please keep these cool and original ideas for white tee shirts coming! I love these. The Tulip cannon paint technique/kit seems like the coolest thing since sliced bread. I am new to paint and stencils for clothing items, so if I seem overly excited that would explain it. I'd like to make a shirt exactly as shown. The orange and the pink are so very trendy."
"just looking for baby blanket crochet patterns"
"It has been my long term goal to be able to jazz up an existing top and make it my own by adding a lace inset such as this. Really! I always have all these great ideas in my head but seeing as how I am not a seamstress, I never know how to go about it. So, thank you very much for this simple to execute lace inset design with instructions. I like that it uses washable glue!"
"After reading this super fast and easy DIY, so many uses come to mind for this spray paint tie dye technique! Wouldn't it look so cool on a 100% cotton white sheet set? Flat, fitted, and the pillow cases, too! Oh my gosh, for your student's dorm room! Also, buy your shirts and cotton shorts from Michaels craft stores when they're on sale. How about using more than one color spray paint? Make stripes. Actually, that would be pretty difficult and painstaking to do because you'd have to alternately cover the accordion folds and be real careful not to get fly away paint to land where you don't want it to. In any case, I love this craft!"
"The pinwheel quilt pattern is one of my favorites! I made pinwheel baby quilt many years ago when my son was a newborn. I especially love this pillow, because it allows quilters to learn how to make the pattern on a much smaller scale than it would be with a quilt. This pillow would make a great gift for just about anyone!"

There is something else to consider - your level of expertise. Are you a beginner or are you an advanced experienced crafter? I think that multiplying by 4 the expenses and labor is a fair compensation for you, and from this total take into consideration if the item is for a friend or relative, if so, you could multiply by three instead.

I find a minimum of 3x to be fair. You need to make a small profit and to take care of yourself. In this economy its really tough but you should know your product and your competitors. A three times mark up gives you room to go up or down on your price. Always remember that some goods you can do a great markup on and some products you will be lucky to get a 2x markup, but if you do things right you should average out enough to still cover all things and make a fair profit. We do not always get what we are worth but be blessed that we have a talent that others benefit from and enjoy. Its us little guys that will benefit from the economy in the long run. Be customer service oriented and know your products and you will do well. Good luck to all.

I never thought of it this way. There is so much more to consider when pricing merchandise. Thanks for all the great tips!

Thats all well and good if you live in a big town/city, where people tend to have more discretionary funds. Think 4X's a little greedy-- it would never sell in my area--but more power to you if they'll pay it! I live in a depressed, mostly rural area, so I have to take that into account. I've actually stopped making certain things as they were too time consuming to be able price them anywhere near what my time is worth!! I usually take into consideration what others in my area are pricing similar objects to the ones I want to sell, then my time, materials, and mileage, and add a couple dollars for extra elec. (the elec is running anyway). I find that with all that I still make a decent profit at 2xs my costs.

HI, I own and operate a leather business andthe method I use most of the times to calulate sale price is to take your cost per item and times it by 4. This usually covers costs, labor, overhead and your profit.

Jacksonville Jaguars Offer Fans Free Beer
(Jacksonville, FL) -- At least fans of the winless Jacksonville Jaguars can drown their sorrows. To boost lagging sales of tickets for yesterday's game with the Indianapolis Colts, the Jags offered anyone who bought a ticket worth 45 dollars or more two vouchers for free beer. The promotion was announced on the team's Twitter account and only ran for a couple hours on Thursday of last week. It's unclear whether the team will try the stunt again. The Jaguars' last winning season was in 2007.

Fox's Tantaros Accuses Obama Of Trying To Buy Votes With Student Loan Relief
Fox News host Andrea Tantaros accused President Obama of trying to "bribe" college students by pushing lawmakers to extend lower interest rates on student loans -- even as she acknowledged Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney supports the plan.
It's unclear why Tantaros would even bother making this accusation when, as she noted during the segment, Romney said [1] on Monday: "I fully support the effort to extend the low interest rate on student loans." He went on to tell reporters:
"There's one thing I want to mention that I forgot to mention at the very beginning, and that was that particularly with the mention of the number of college graduates that can't find work or that can only find work well beneath their skill level, I fully support the effort to extend the low interest rate on student loans."
President Obama's proposal to urge Congress to extend the lower interest rates for federally subsidized student loans is especially important considering student-loan debt is "reaching crisis proportions." As the Associated Press reported [2]:
Surging above $1 trillion, U.S. student loan debt has surpassed credit card and auto-loan debt. This debt explosion jeopardizes the fragile recovery, increases the burden on taxpayers and possibly sets the stage for a new economic crisis.
With a still-wobbly jobs market, these loans are increasingly hard to pay off. Unable to find work, many students have returned to school, further driving up their indebtedness.
Average student loan debt recently topped $25,000, up 25 per cent in 10 years. And the mushrooming debt has direct implications for taxpayers, since 8 in 10 of these loans are government-issued or guaranteed.
Obama's proposal would extend the lower rates that were put in effect [3] in 2007:
President Obama used his weekly video address to launch what will be a weeklong push on the issue of college affordability, pressing lawmakers to act to prevent a sharp increase in interest rates for student loans.
Legislation passed in 2007 temporarily halved the interest rates for Stafford Loans from 6.8% to 3.2%. If Congress does not act to extend the lower rates by July 1, as many as 7 million families could face higher payments, the White House estimates.
Tantaros' uninspired criticism of Obama's latest effort to help ease the burden of student loan debts isn't new. After the president unveiled a plan last October to provide some student loan relief, several [4] Fox hosts similarly accused [5] Obama of trying to buy votes.

It was there that Haydn met him, and wrote to Dussek's father in high terms of his son's talents and good qualities.
Dussek was fond of ease and pleasure, and never developed his powers to the full.
Then Dussek entered and made away with the lot, leaving but the bones!
Those of Clementi and Dussek seem destined to perennial life.
My loved Rosa, also won general admiration by her execution of an aria, in which she was accompained by Dussek on the piano.
It is altogether likely that Beethoven was influenced by Dussek's playing, in the direction of tone-color.
The third, in C, is still different from the other two, and was fashioned apparently after some composition of Clementi or Dussek.
He is a nephew and pupil of Dussek, and played two concertos of that master in his manner.
My play met with the most enthusiastic applause, and Dussek in particular, seemed delighted with it.
Dussek was a famous eater, and it is said that his ruling passion eventually killed him.

Also have them bring paper or plastic to the picked event where there is a recycle bin located, as part of the requirement to get admission. Kids love that stuff.

La Toya Jackson confirms engagement, talks OWN reality show
La Toya Jackson says she's "very much engaged." On Wednesday's "Good Morning America," La Toya confirmed that she's marrying her longtime business manager Jeffre Phillips.
I'm SO HAPPY to share my engagement with you all!!! pic.twitter.com/pYKQdqt13P
— La Toya Jackson (@latoyajackson) June 4, 2014
Her engagement will be captured on the upcoming season two premiere of "Living With La Toya," her reality show on the Oprah Winfrey Network. On Saturday's new episode, La Toya says fans will get to see her fiance asking her father Joe for her hand. She jokes that Joe "is a nice guy, but he's not the easiest person to talk to."
The 57-year-old says she does have dreams of being a mother, revealing that she and Jeffre haven't ruled out starting a family. She adds that if she were to have a child, her first-born would be named Paris -- as a part of a childhood pact she made with her late brother Michael and close friend Kathy Hilton.
Congratulations to La Toya!

Mike Isabella
Mike Isabella is the Chef/Owner of Graffiato, which opened in June 2011 in the Chinatown neighborhood of Washington, DC.
The 130-seat Italian-inspired spot features small plates, locally cured meats, artisanal pizzas and pastas with seasonal ingredients influenced by the food Chef Isabella grew up eating in New Jersey prepared by his Italian American grandmother.
Before opening Graffiato, Chef Isabella was the executive chef of Jose Andres' Zaytinya. During his three-year tenure, Chef Isabella generated accolades and national attention for Washington, DC's Mediterranean powerhouse restaurant.
Chef Isabella's formal training began at The Restaurant School in New York, taking classes and cooking his way through some of New York City's finest establishments. After honing his skills in the Big Apple, he traveled down the coast to Philadelphia, first as a sous chef for James Beard award winner Douglas Rodriguez at Alma de Cuba, then as a host of other Stephen Starr restaurants. At El Vez, Chef Isabella learned the true craft of Latin cuisine under the direction of Jose Garces, and as Executive Sous Chef of Marcus Samuelsson's Washington Square he educated himself on the strenuous--yet exciting--task of opening a fine dining establishment.
While Philadelphia proved to be an incredible learning experience and launching ground, Chef Isabella still needed to find his niche. He discovered it when he moved to Atlanta and joined Buckhead Life Group's top-notch Greek restaurant, Kyma. As Chef de Cuisine of the seafood-inspired menu, Chef Isabella learned the slight flavors and techniques of Greek cooking and immersed himself in the traditions of one of the oldest cuisines in the world. While traveling through Greece and parts of the Middle East, Chef Isabella learned the nuances of these cuisines. Talking to locals and sifting through the daily markets gave Chef Isabella a chance to truly understand these foods, and helped to form a base for his culinary imagination.
Outside the kitchen, Chef Isabella appeared on season six of Bravo's "Top Chef" and he was the runner-up on "Top Chef All-Stars". In spring 2012, Chef Isabella opened Bandolero, a modern Mexican restaurant in Georgetown, and in fall 2012 he published his first cookbook with Da Capo Lifelong Books titled, Flavors from a Jersey Italian.

Was $79.95 NOW $49.95
This is the lidded pet bowl that automatically opens only when the intended pet approaches, preventing access to other dogs or cats. The included microchip tag attaches to the pet's collar and transmits an infrared signal that opens the lid of the bowl when the pet is within 2'. The lid closes when pet walks away, preventing other pets from eating from the bowl. The clear polycarbonate lid creates a secure seal that extends food's freshness and allows owners to monitor how must sustenance is left. The microchip is inside a water-resistant, locket-sized plastic case that will not interfere with the pet's normal movements, multiple microchip tags can be used with the same feeder (more available below) or assigned to open only one bowl when multiple feeders are present. The removable stainless steel bowl holds up to up to 1 1/2 cups of food and is dishwasher-safe. A switch allows owners to open and close the lid manually. Powered by the included AC adapter or three D batteries, not included. 8" L x 7" W x 4 3/4" H. (2 1/4 lbs.)

A good idea
By Loves Cats
from Ontario, Canada
Best Uses
Great product if you have more than one pet, one that's a picky eater and one that eats everything because the picky eater can eat at their leisure. The problem is, the tag that activates the lid dangles in the the water dish when the pet drinks so the battery doesn't last very long and needs replacing often. I haven't figured out a way to keep the tag out of the drinking water so I keep lots of extra batteries.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Scared my cats
By Teresa
from St Louis, MO
Remember the jack in the box that kids crank the handle and it pops up? Well this is similar and my cats were scared. Even my brave one wouldn't go near it after a couple of times. I tried the suggestions to get them used to it and it didn't work and I didn't want to keep scaring them. Once I decided to return it, I disassembled the battery from the microchip and it was all wet inside from the cats drinking water. The microchip is also big and clunky, bigger than I expected.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Not great for cats...
By Stephanie
from Texas
The bowl was okay, except for the aforementioned cons. The tag was especially annoying. I have a cat, and the bulkiness of the tag would hinder her ability to eat out of the bowl. In addition, it would either catch on the sides of her water bowl, or she would have to lean far enough over the side that it dipped halfway in the water. All in all, not great for cats. Probably good for medium to large dogs.

Not sure yet if its worth the money
By Karyn
from Wilmington, IL
It is loud when it opens & closes & scares my cat. Also, the microchip collar attachment is bulky & too big for a cat, wish it would have been a little smaller. Okay for a dog though. Not sure yet if my cat will get used to the loud noise or bulky microchip collar attachment.

It's Ed and Tim! Hello once again audience! When we last left our heroes, we were continuing with our research projects both on the reefs and intertidal zones. The morning was off to a slow start, but the pancake breakfast accompanied with bacon, which is the most beautiful thing on earth, worked wonders. The reef research teams had the morning off to rest for the rough afternoon ahead. The intertidal squads headed out right after breakfast to do some more sampling and data collecting. A couple from Club Med was walking on the beach and questioned the brittle star group as to what they were doing and had a nice conversation about it. For the most part, it was the most exciting part out in the field this morning.
After we had our lunch of grilled cheese and soup we headed out to the south end of the island for a long swim to High Cay. It was a long, bumpy ride sure to be well worth it! We arrived at the beach and crossed over the sand dune, ready to take on the challenge. However, the water was too rough to attempt the crossing to High Cay. We weren't too eager to hop back on to the truck and ride all the way back so soon, so we hung out and explored the beach and got even tanner! This beach was different because there were numerous conch shells strewn throughout the sand and water. Stubbed toes were a common sight. The ladies tanned along the beach, while the men skipped conch shells along the waves and played our favorite game "beached whale". After an hour of lolly-gagging, we headed back on to the truck back to the research center. But this was no ordinary truck ride. Something happened that has never happened on this trip. That's right; we all broke in to song! For the hour long truck ride back to the GRC, many songs were sung, including Don't stop Believing, I Wanna Talk About Me, and Wagon Wheel. Yours truly (Ed) became very enthusiastic when singing "Dirty Pop" by N'Sync.
We arrived back at the centre in time for dinner and some well-deserved naps. After we had our night class, we normally look over the pictures taken throughout the day. What some might not have suspected was that KR was taking videos of us singing on the truck. We're sure you can guess what happened next. Oh yes, we watched all the videos of the truck ride! After that, half the class decided to call it a night and went to bed while others stayed in the classroom and watched Pixar's UP.
We learned a lot from the experiences of today. We can't control what Mother Nature has in store for the day and field exercises don't always work out as planned or expected.

Hi all,
A common problem (and obsessive issue) for many BJJ/No gi grapplers is determining what weight class they want to compete in. I myself have this issue and have looked at several articles from respectable names in the game whom have very different opinions on the subject.
I weigh 77kg without the gi (79kg roughly with the gi) but could make the 76kg lightweight category if i made some consistent lifestyle changes- i.e dieting/ methods of training.
Does it even make a difference? What are the pro's and cons for going down a weight or fighting in the middle of a weight class but being your natural weight? Has anyone on this forum had similar thoughts/issues on the same subject?

The Washington Post's Bad Math Tarnishes Innovative Light Bulb
Blog ››› ››› SHAUNA THEEL
In a front page article on Friday, The Washington Post reported that a $50 LED light bulb manufactured in the U.S. by Philips had won the Department of Energy's L-Prize for using only 10 watts of energy to produce light as bright as a 60-watt incandescent bulb. But the Post completely obscured the consumer savings from the LED's energy efficiency, including in an infographic that had to be corrected because its math was wrong.
The graphic claimed we would be better off buying 30 incandescent bulbs over 10 years rather than one of the prize-winning bulbs:
But as several outlets pointed out, the Post greatly underestimated electricity rates. After correcting for this, the LED bulb that the Post called "costly" actually saves consumers a significant amount of money over time, as the corrected infographic shows:
Quite a difference.
Nowhere in the article did the Post make clear that people would save money overall by purchasing the LED instead of incandescent bulbs. This same inability to look beyond the up-front price tag and consider the actual operating costs is precisely why we waste so much money and energy through lighting.
Although The Washington Post ran the corrected graphic in today's paper, the misinformation lives on. Today, a Washington Times editorial falsely claims that the cost of the LED "eats up any long-term savings" from energy efficiency and lifespan, while others just completely ignored these savings.
The print edition of the Post article featured the sensational headline: "Affordability award goes to a $50 light bulb." But the L-Prize is not an "affordability award," it is an award for innovation in energy efficiency that was created by George W. Bush's Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007. In fact, Philips had already produced an 12.5 watt LED that you can buy for half the price of the L-Prize winner. Nevertheless, ABC News Radio and Investor's Business Daily copied the Post, calling it an "affordability prize." And again, if you're not considering operating costs, you're not really evaluating "affordability."
The Post never made clear that the L-Prize was a part of the Bush law. Fox Nation and Newsmax called it "Obama's 'Green' Light Bulb" and Rush Limbaugh declared "Nobody was unhappy with" inefficient incandescent light bulbs "except Obama and his buddies on the left." (Curiously, many of these same conservative outlets were previously claiming that consumers would be forced to buy only CFLs).
Unfortunately, low-quality clean energy reporting is becoming a pattern at the Washington Post. In September, the Post ran another front page story that featured fuzzy math, which was subsequently adopted by conservative media. That story assigned a high cost-per-job assessment of the Department of Energy's loan guarantee program that relied on the completely unrealistic assumption that every loan guarantee would default.
The Post also ran several editorials arguing against clean energy investments that left out important facts. Overall, the Post's reporting focuses on politics rather than energy policy, leaving their readers knowing more about what politicians are saying than what experts are saying.

Rock Star
In rock right now, you've got the Chris Martin approach to style (in which a great amount of care is taken to look cool) and you've got the Jack White approach, which just is. White gives the impression that he's wearing whatever happened to be on the floor, and he puts it on, owns it, and rocks it.
Masked Man
In July, it rained at the London premiere of The Dark Knight Rises. (Obviously.) And the man who broke bad as Bane proved that not only can you wear a trench coat all year round, but you can look like this while doing it. Plus, he's wearing driving gloves. Necessary in the middle of summer? Probably not. Sharp-looking? Sharp-looking.

CLEVELAND -- Cleveland city councilman Kenneth Johnson has introduced an ordinance that would prohibit the sale of energy drinks to anyone under the age of 18. The citywide measure would include vending machines to which minors have access.
Johnson contends that energy drinks, largely marketed to teens, contain 70mg. to 80mg. of caffeine per 8-fl.oz. serving, which is three times the amount in cola soft drinks.
His proposed ban comes on the heels of an U.S. Food and Drug Administration report that Monster Beverage Corp.'s energy drinks have been cited in the deaths of five people in the past year. Among them was a 14 year-old girl who died after drinking two, 24-fl.oz. cans of the drinks in 24 hours. The girl's parents have sued the maker of the drink.
Federal health authorities are also investigating reports of 13 deaths that may be associated with 5-Hour Energy shot. | SEE STORY
Under the measure, distribution of energy drinks to minors would result in a fourth-degree misdemeanor. Passage of the legislation requires a two-thirds majority approval from council and approval from the mayor.

Talented Young Texas Singer/Songwriter
From Concan Has Performed Since Age 9
Published January 2014
At just 17, country music performer and songwriter Camille Sanders is already a veteran of the music world, if you count the years she's been singing and playing the fiddle, since age 9. Camille's most recent performances include acoustic sets with Ace in the Hole Band leader Ronnie Huckaby. Yes, that Ace in the Hole Band, George Strait's backing group. She released her second CD in April 2013, "Smile." Her first, a self-titled CD of cover and orginal songs, came out in 2011. The Camille Sanders Band performed a set at the 2011 San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo and has opened for several big acts.
Though Camille has yet to garner the kind of huge attention that mean's a performer has "arrived" in Texas and across the country, she has already charted hits in Europe, where, by the way, many people love American country music. And, recently, Camille made her acting debut in a made-for-TV movie starring Dolly Parton.
It was Camille's maternal grandfather, Howard Yeargan, who spurred her early interest in music, she said. "I started learning how to play the fiddle when I was 9, and we would go from church to church and play gospel shows together and I'd play the fiddle and my grandpa would play the piano." Her fiddle playing then was a little rough compared to now, she said. "It was a little squeaky."
Her fiddle skills improved, and at the same time her grandfather taught her to play the piano. "My grandpa passed away," she said. "I thought, well, I'm going to continue what we started together, so I learned how to play the guitar." She had the music basics down, she said, but she needed some polish. "I needed real good training and stuff so I started training with my fiddle teacher, Dick Walker. And we would work together all throughout the summers trying to get theory and stuff, and I learned how to play the guitar and I started covering songs and writing my own music to play at a show in Concan."
Camille's parents, Paul and Beth Sanders, support her musical career from their home in Concan in Southwest Texas. Beth home schools Camille, who will be graduating high school very soon. Camille's older sister Caitlynn, who works as a radiology technician, supports Camille's career as well and is a fan and trusted critic, Camille said. "I'm so thankful to have her be so supportive of me."
Before she took up the guitar, Camille, at 13, had played at a "song swap" at the House Pasture Cattle Company in Concan, a restaurant and live music venue. "I only knew two songs on the mandolin and I got up there and I did my two songs, and it was with, like—Kyle Park and Cory Morrow were there and Emory Quinn and Luke Olson; they were all on stage and then there was me on the mandolin in the corner." The restaurant owner at the time liked what she heard and asked Camille to come back and perform Memorial Day weekend, only a month away.
"I didn't know any songs on the guitar . . . so I got a guitar really fast and I just kind of locked myself in my bedroom and I practiced, oh, so gruelingly, until it was time for the show. And, I got my hour of music down and I was ready to go, man, and it was terrifying, because I'd never done anything like that before."
On stage at the House Pasture, Camille performed the songs she'd learned. "I remember at the time the Hannah Montana movie was out and I played 'The Climb' from that . . . and just a ton of Taylor Swift songs, and originals," she said. "I had two originals at the time so I did those too, and, oh yeah, some George Strait. Had to get George Strait in there! I do remember "The Climb" was one of them. Oh man, I loved that Hannah Montana movie!"
Camille has been writing songs since age 13 when she wrote her first one about a crush she had on a boy in her church youth group. "The song, I remember, was called 'Don't Look Back,' and it's not on any CD or anything," she said. "It's probably not my very best written song but I was so happy; I had a song of my own and I had written it." She runs a lot of her cover song choices and original songs by her friend Molly to see if she likes them. Camille trusts Molly's opinion. "She's been there to tell me, 'Oh, Camille, that's song's terrible; do not cover that one.' I even wrote a song in her bedroom one time at a sleepover we had. So, she's been very supportive and she's one of my best critics, along with my sister Caitlynn."
After her Memorial Day weekend engagement at the House Pasture she was hired on as the "unofficial dinner music" every Thursday night for the big acts that would play there. She would play her fiddle and sing, sometimes going from table to table. Eventually, the management asked her to play on Saturday nights. "Oh my gosh, I thought the world was just so bright and shiny when that happened! That was cool!" Camille said. "Because, oh gosh, getting to go play on a Saturday night . . . there's actually people there!"
She would open for the big Texas music acts such as Kyle Park. "The House Pasture would be packed, so then here's this little girl, standing on stage," she said. "A lot of times I would get good a reception because it was when I would take my fiddle and go walk around and meet everybody there."
Until that point Camille had performed alone or had sat in with various bands or performers. But while performing at the House Pasture she'd been noticed and about New Year's of 2011 she received a call and was invited to perform a one-hour set at the 2011 San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo, set for just a month away. The short notice sent Camille and her parents scrambling to put together a band. Through her experiences performing she'd already made a lot of musician friends. One was guitarist Mark Buchanan, who delivered propane to the Sanders home.
"He was the one who taught me how to change my guitar strings and was there for me for my first show," Camille said. "He always supported me, and when I started in this business he would say, 'Hey, come sit in with me and my band at this Saturday night gig,' and so I would learn songs I knew his band would cover. So, whenever it came time when I was really needing to grow and have something more than just an acoustic act, he was our first call."
"This was, I mean, right into the new year. So we called Mark and said, man, we need to get a band together and it was for the Disney day at the stock show and we said we've got to get a band together that's willing to play Hannah Montana and Taylor Swift, because it's for kids and he was like, 'Ok, lets get a band!'" Camille knew a bass player in Sabinal named Joe Villasana, and through him they added a drummer, John Michael Bird, and a lead guitar, Roy Pivoda. "We just practiced so much throughout that time—that month—and we got our hour down."
What they thought was just going to be a one-time gig turned into more. "We really loved playing together, so we continued playing together, and it ws just a really cool opportunity that opened up just from that one show," Camille said. "We started playing together all over Texas, going from here to Austin to San Saba to everywhere, and it was cool. I was so thankful for the opportunity that those men brought into my life just by being a band and teaching me so much. They taught me so much performance wise." The Camille Sanders Band has opened for performers including Joe Nichols and Tanya Tucker.
During the holiday season especially and at various times throughout the year, Camille said, she does acoustic gigs. "I will call Mark in and we'll go and do a duo show together and that's always fun because he's a great guy."
She's also been performing duet acoustic shows with Ace in the Hole Band leader Ronnie Huckaby. "In the duo show we just play the music that everybody knows and loves, mixed in with some originals from the CDs that he's co-produced with me and Tommy Detamore out of Floresville, Texas," Camille said. "I just love Ronnie. You'll have to stop me 'cause I'll talk about him for pages!" Camille said she first met Huckaby when her grandfather, Caddo Sanders, brought him to Concan from San Marcos. "He's been so good to me and he's taught me so much. And he's such a good friend to me, most importantly, that we were able to have a good musical relationship." Camille's albums were recorded by Tommy Detamore at his Cherry Ridge Recording Studio in Floresville, Texas.
Though Camille's songs get some airplay on independent radio stations in the United States, a big part of the fan feedback that she's gotten is from France, Germany, the Netherlands and the UK. "This album ("Smile") and the last album ("Camille Sanders") have both had songs that were in the top 20 on the independent charts in Europe. And that was so cool!" she said. "The other day I got a message on my Facebook from a man in France that said . . . 'Hello from France. France loves country music. Love your music. Thank you.'" She said she was looking forward to being invited to travel to Europe and perform. "Oh gosh, I'm hoping! That would be incredible."
A second career path that Camille is considering involves acting. A recent series of events led to a role for her in a Lifetime movie starring Dolly Parton, "A Country Christmas Story," that was broadcast this past November. Camille had auditioned for and been accepted to a summer acting camp in Los Angeles. At the end of the acting camp the organizers presented talent showcase of the campers for L.A. agents. "I got an agent out of that, and he's so nice and ever since then we've always had a word agreement, like a handshake, that he would submit me for roles that he thought were worth me coming out there," she said. She's had a few auditions that didn't go anywhere, but then last year her agent called with a role just right for her. "He called and said, 'I've got the part for you. It's a fiddle player and it's just right down your alley.'" To audition, she recorded a video of herself, including some fiddle playing and singing, and sent it back to Los Angeles. The production company liked what they saw and asked for a second audition tape. After waiting for a week and thinking she wouldn't get this role just as she'd not gotten previous roles, the family got a call saying she'd gotten the part. "We all just freaked out! But then it was like, well gosh, I got a part; now what do I do with it?" she said.
For her movie role, Camille portrayed a young fiddle playing country music performer named Mary Lou Memphis, a bit of a mean girl, the opposite of Camille's exuberant and positive personality. And as Mary Lou she had to perform a song that Dolly Parton had written for the part. Camille enlisted the help of Tommy Detamore at Cherry Ridge Studio to lay down tracks for the song. She and her mother then spent a week filming in Los Angeles and another week filming with Dolly at Dollywood in Pigeon Forge, Tenn.
Camille discovered that for the scene where she sang the song she would sing along to her already recorded tracks for a studio audience of extras and for Dolly Parton. "I had never performed it, period. I had practiced it, and I had recorded the vocals for it here in Texas with Tommy Detamore. . . They said, don't worry, you've just got to play along and sing along with your audio so we can match your audio and your fiddle playing together for the movie, so, whew!, that was a relief!" she said. But Dolly seemed to have enjoyed her performance.
"She liked it, and she asked me if I was really a singer or if I was really an actor. And I told her I had mainly only ever done music," Camille said. "And she said, 'Oh, that's wonderful sweetheart, do you have a CD?' And I said, oh, yes ma'am I do, I have like an independent one . . . And, she was like, 'Can I have one?'. . . What!? Wait a minute, you want my CD? She said, 'Of course I do!'" When Camille gave Dolly a copy of her "Smile" CD, Dolly asked her to autograph it. "I was like, oh man, our roles are really reversed here right now. She said, 'No you're fine, just sign it.' And I was thinking, what do you sign to Dolly Parton? 'I will always love you?' I just wrote something silly because I was so nervous, like 'Thank you so much. Camille Sanders.'"
As she graduates high school, Camille said she will be pursuing both her career paths, singing and acting, and will put off going to college for now.

Raw materials for the solar future
SolarWorld's lithium activities
SolarWorld Solicium GmbH is a wholly owned subsidiary of SolarWorld AG, who has been exploring for lithium in Zinnwald, southern Saxony in Germany, since 2011. Currently, a feasibility study on the cost-effectiveness of excavating and preparing zinnwaldite, the mineral that contains lithium, as well as manufacturing lithium carbonate, is being performed together with the Technical University of Freiberg and other partners.
Lithium carbonate is one of the main source products in manufacturing lithium-ion batteries, which are high-performance batteries used in cell phones and laptops, in addition to supplying mobile energy in the electric and hybrid cars of the future. Lithium-ion batteries are also storage units for renewable energy sources – future-oriented and excellent examples of innovative technology.
Zinnwaldite is named after the region from which it is mined (Zinnwald, Germany) and it is a mineral containing lithium. The mineral is first extracted from the ore and then dressed or crushed in the subsequent stages of processing. The material is subjected to magnetic separation to separate the magnetic zinnwaldite from the non-magnetic raw ore, and it is enriched to a zinnwaldite concentration. This concentration is then roasted and leached by means of dilution in order to separate the lithium from the mineral. The lithium-rich solutions are further processed to lithium carbonate using chemicals, resulting in a white, inorganic powder. The customers of lithium carbonate are manufacturers of cathode materials for lithium-ion batteries.

Last year, instead of releasing a new album, Beck released a collection of sheet music.
Thanks to Portland Cello Project, the music from Beck's "Song Reader" can be heard (and purchased) in its entirety by Portland Cello Project, an ensemble with a goal of showing the music world that cellos need not be relegated to the background at classical concerts but can be impressive sonic devices on their own especially when performing witty, inventive tunes that cellists normally avoid.
Actually, "the main goal is to confuse the audience," joked the project's general manager, artistic director and cellist Douglas Jenkins.
While the six cellists and three additional musicians (including a singer) will perform some classical and jazz, the project is known for setting contemporary music to cellos. For example, the group's 2012 album, "Homage," consists of re-imaginings of hip-hop pieces from the likes of OutKast and Lil' Wayne, and one song is even called "Fugue on a Monstrous Theme of Kanye West."
The group typically tours with rock acts such as all-star guitarist Buckethead, who would never take the KFC bucket off his head but would ask, through his tour manager, if the cellists were enjoying themselves.
Yes, they were, Jenkins said.

text: One thing not a lot of people are talking about is what happens if Ware gets injured this year? The guy is a warrior and doesn't want to come off the field even when he's hurting, but he was largely ineffective down the stretch and he's getting older. If he has to miss a couple of games, who's taking over as a pass rusher on the weak side if Anthony Spencer isn't here? We currently have NO ONE on the roster I'd be happy with, and a lot of the draft focus has been on a DE to play the strong side. Butler was just okay as a 3-4 OLB, but don't forget the guy had 22 sacks in his final two years before leaving Oregon State. He has a history as a pass rusher, and a 4-3 may be just what the doctor ordered. If we end up not keeping Spencer, I'd divert some of those funds to Butler even if he's just a rotational guy and an insurance policy. Ware's neck and shoulder/arm are a bit worrying and we at least have a few years of watching Butler take on NFL talent, which is not the case for these draft guys.

Mandela Sign Interpreter: I Was Hallucinating
(NEWSER) – The interpreter blasted for supposedlymaking up sign language during Nelson Mandela's memorial service says he wasn't faking it—he was hallucinating and hearing voices. Thamsanqa Jantjie says he suffers from schizophrenia and he had an episode during the service, possibly brought on by the magnitude of the occasion. He says he felt unable to leave and continued to sign things that made no sense.

Best Optical Illusion EVER!
Reading the title, and understanding it came directly from me, I suppose adds some weight to the actual Leopard Illusion you see below. It's hard for me to explain how this illusion came to be, without revealing the actual solution, thus ruining the surprise-effect for you. There is much relevant info and background for it, but for now I'll retain myself just on revealing the author behind it – the magnificent Craig Tracy. First thing you'll notice is that it's not some photo of an actual animal, rather a realistically painted picture. But you're still far from seeing the illusion. Only tip I can give you, is that leopard's eyes were painted on a concrete floor. I suggest you examine the picture more closely before seeing this final hint. I'll monitor the forthcoming ratings, and am eager to see if you agree with me that this must be one of the best optical illusions ever created!
