Ah you got me watching Yamashita videos now. That is one fat boy who is just beautiful to watch, dont care what anyone else says.
Ah you got me watching Yamashita videos now. That is one fat boy who is just beautiful to watch, dont care what anyone else says.
This happens in a lot of boxing gyms why shouldnt it work in BJJ ?
I think its a positive approach, they wont gas so early , less likely to get injured, ets etc etc....
OK please dont confuse FAT and FIT, they are not the same thing. You can be fat and fit and you can be a comedy midget and still unfit.
no, you can be podgy and fit, ......not fat , or porky and fit....
Its debatable of course, and it depends in the sport you are training for. Some Rugby forwards I would definitley call full on fat, and yet still fit. I would agree there is probably an upper limit of fatness where you could still be called fit, although Sumo wrestlers would probably disagree (and I would not argue with them myself)
Beautifull knock out from Butterbean in this clip. Would you tell him to his face that he should not be allowed to box? OK he was not at his fattest at this point, but still beyond "podgy".
IMO warm ups should not only warm up your body but also prepare your mind for the session. I really think warm ups should be a minimum of 15min long. Don't know about you guys but after a hards work it takes at least that long for me to get switched back on mentally and attentive enough to learn techniques.
You shouldn't be so so tired after a warm up that you can't think straight but you can't come in cold either because IMO your concentration levels won't be where it needs to be. Most injuries/accidents on the mat occur when people lose focus on what they are doing.
For the fatties if you can't make it through a 15 min warm up, you should suck it up, get some fitness and stop being such sisses lol.
Love the idea of a conditioning class btw.
Bateman, I am going to get you in Kami Shiho Gatame and use my gut to pin down your head.
See how you like them apples.
haha , i train with guys that dont like warm ups , to be honest i like a 30 min session of fitness before i roll. my brain cant take more than 30 mins of technical training a session to be honest..
Or perhaps there were a group of new people in the class that were being shown what they should be doing in order prepare themselves for BJJ.
Perhaps they are not as astute in the arena of "physical fitness" as yourself, and they could do with the insight?
Perhaps the Instructor felt that the greatest need for the Class as a whole was fitness. Apparently the Instructor knows best?

As a teenager, Brian Setzer strummed a guitar in his family's Long Island garage and couldn't imagine making a record.
Especially a hit record.
"The first time I heard my single, `Runaway Boys,' it was already a hit in England," Setzer said. "I remember hearing it on the highway and pulling over so I wouldn't lose the guitar solo under the overpass."
Setzer added that you just can't believe it when that happens - when it hits you that you've become successful - when you hear your own music on the radio.
Since then, Setzer's hot guitar solos have transcended generations, and his orchestra's Christmas shows have become a tradition for scores of fans, eager for tunes draped in the rockabilly arrangements that made Setzer famous.
On Friday, the three-time Grammy Award-winning guitarist, singer and songwriter and the Brian Setzer Orchestra plays San Bernardino's historic California Theatre of the Performing Arts.
It's the Brian Setzer Orchestra's ninth-annual "Christmas Rocks Extragaganza.
Founder of the rockabilly group the Stray Cats, Setzer formed the 17-piece swing and jump blues orchestra in the mid-1990s, complete with brass, woodwind, rhythm section and backup singers. It's a long way from the three-piece Stray Cats, but the Stray Cats influence is clear in the shows.
Setzer, who's been called the King of Swing and the Rockabilly Rebel, admits that when he's at home he picks his guitar, while he has a baseball game on in the background.
The process relaxes him, and suddenly, he comes up with something new, he says, it just happens.
He then writes it out musically with pen and paper.
He records new music he's written on an old 1970 Sears tape recorder and has to go online to buy the cassettes.
His last four or five albums he still has on the cassettes before he recorded them, he says.
"I need some sort of relaxation. That's how I do it," said Setzer in a phone interview somewhere between New Jersey and Kentucky.
His 2012 Christmas Rocks tour has criss-crossed the country, stopping at 26 cities since Nov. 17.
Following Friday's concert in San Bernardino, the band plays the Gibson Theatre at Universal CityWalk for its tour grand finale on Saturday.
Joseph Henson, Theatrical Arts International producer, said he has seen Brian Setzer almost every year at Christmastime.
"His Christmas spectacular is the best way to get you into the Christmas spirit," Henson said.
"He plays the best music from Christmas with a big band flair and also plays his Stray Cats hits and his retro songs. It's a must-see concert."
The orchestra's gigs have included the East Room of the White House and tree-lighting ceremonies at Rockefeller Center.
Setzer's huge "Rockabilly Riot" Tour, which ran from June 2011 to April 2012, featured sold-out performances in Europe, Japan, Australia and North America.
Setzer's Christmas tours, now in their ninth year, have become a traditional celebration, with performances usually sold-out.
"What got me going for the Christmas shows was when they called me to do something for `Jingle All the Way,' the Arnold Schwarzenegger movie."
He came up with his version of "Jingle Bells" and they loved it.
And then he wrote "So They Say It's Christmas, a song recorded by Lou Rawls.
"People wouldn't let me stop. I guess I'm the only rockin' guy who does Christmas songs."
This ninth-annual tour is unique in that Setzer is not plugging an album - the tour is truly a celebration of the season.
Jesse Dinkel, associate producer at the California Theatre, considers himself a big Setzer fan.
"He's amazing," Dinkel said. "One of the things that people love when they go to see him is how he makes rockabilly modern, yet classic and old-school," said Dinkel, who has seen him in concert several times.
"The stand-up bass guitars are really cool - I mean `Jump, Jive An' Wail' makes you want to dance."
Setzer, 53, who has three children, said the most important Christmas gift is time - being with your family.
His children don't want much, he says.
"My daughters live in Nashville and they don't want `stuff.' They just want to hang out. It's important, so I just make sure it happens."
His family - and staying busy - keep him going, he said.
"I keep myself going with music and hobbies. Lately it's been old junk - like on `American Pickers,"' said Setzer, admitting that he "loves" old junk.
His passions? Guitars and hot rods.
"You can't really say that I collect a lot, but I like to go through it. My latest passion is old motorcycles. I've got three of them. They don't run right so you tweak them and fix them and it makes you feel so good when you're drivin' down the road."
"It's kind of my thing."
Setzer and his wife, Julie, a former vocalist with the band, live in Minneapolis.

NEW YORK CITY -- New from Popcorn, Indiana is Warm Your Corn, which the company says is the first ready-to-eat popcorn supplied in a microwave-safe bag. The company's Original Movie Theater Popcorn now is packaged in the specially marked bags, so consumers can warm up the "already fresh and crunchy treat" to recreate the "at-home movie experience" with greater fidelity.
A specially designed packaging-material structure forms a high moisture barrier, allowing sufficient shelf life for the product to be delivered with the brand's hallmark freshness and crunchiness. Warm Your Corn began shipping to all retail outlets in mid-August.
As with all Popcorn, Indiana products, Warm Your Corn is free of artificial flavoring and preservatives. Its classic popcorn and kettle corn are formulated with 100% natural ingredients.
Popcorn, Indiana claims it drove 84% of the growth in the ready-to-eat popcorn category in 2011 and is the largest independent popcorn snack company in the U.S. Its snacks are certified gluten-free, made from non-genetically modified corn and contain whole grains.

A Jersey Guy: Big East ready to respond
So is this the Old Big East, or our basketball Big East? Can we use OBE and BBBE?
According to sources in the Big East, Arseco and company are planning on exploring the following moves.
1. Sell the name ""Big East"" to the basketball schools after getting some assurances from the NCAA that the cost of losing the Big East name will not cost them too much in the lucrative NCAA basketball tournament. If the name is sold to the new Big East, the old Big East will petition the NCAA to get a 32nd guaranteed spot for its champion.
Aresco's contention is that a basketball league with Connecticut, Cincinnati, Memphis and Temple has a decent foundation to build.
2. Give East Carolina full membership (the original deal was football only) which would give the new league an Eastern group of Cincinnati, UConn, South Florida, Temple, East Carolina, Central Florida, Tulane and in 2015 Navy.
College Basketball Talk: Cooley: "We're excited" about move away from Big East
The Big East was changing every single day. There were nontraditional schools being invited and I'm pretty sure it just wasn't in the best interests of them all. But we're excited. We're real excited about the direction. I don't know what's going to happen from here, I just know it's going in a different direction. And Providence College has solidified itself as far as what we're doing to be a powerful player in whatever league we're going to be in."

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — The experience of air travel has declined over the years, but the retail experience at airports has consistently been elevated as retailers look for new opportunities, such as this newly renovated Tom Bradley International Terminal, featuring 19 retail stores, at the western gateway to the U.S.
Last year, Westfield Concessions Management — the Terminal Concessions Manager for LAX — tapped the Hudson Group, as well as a group of local partners, to build and operate the 19 new shops in the newly renovated international terminal. The list of shops includes five travel essentials stores and 13 specialty retail stores, including luxury brands Emporio Armani, Bulgari, Coach, Michael Kors, Hugo Boss, Tumi, Virgin/Boost and Bliss, along with local favorites Fred Segal, Kitson, See's Candies and Pinkberry.
"This award is a milestone for our partnership group, probably one of the most significant wins in our 25-year history," said Joe DiDomizio, president & CEO of Hudson Group. "It demonstrates our transition from a company perhaps best known as an excellent newsstand operator to a company at ease with operating international luxury brands. For that we can thank the growing reputation of our marketing and merchandising team, and the support of our parent company, Dufry. As the largest duty free operator in the world, Dufry has relationships with all the top designer and luxury brands. This access has greatly enhanced the portfolio of offerings that we are able to offer to airports."
Working on the joint venture with the Hudson Group is an assembly of L.A. businesses that have their fingers on the pulse of the Los Angeles marketplace. The group includes equity partner Concourse Ventures (Dale Cochran, principal); ACDBE partners Palazzo Concessions (Simeon Stewart and Michael Washington, principals); The Zaman Group (Karim Zaman, principal); MAJ Collection (Julie Jun, principal) and Arandia Designs (Luis Arandia, principal).
The shops will be ready when the terminal re-opens this summer, beginning with a bevy of newsstand brands, including Entertainment Weekly News, CNN Newsstand — Los Angeles, a news/gift store called Angeleno and the newest incarnation of the Hudson News brand, called Hudson.
Hudson Group, the largest duty-paid travel retailer in North America, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of international duty-free travel retailer Dufry AG of Basel, Switzerland. The company operates some 700 Hudson News, Hudson Booksellers, cafes, specialty retail and duty free shops in 70 airports and transportation terminals in the United States and Canada, and additional newsstands in 12 more countries around the world. The combined Dufry/Hudson entity oversees more than 1,200 stores in 44 countries and 155 airports and terminals.

Q: What if the event I want to transfer into sells out before I receive my registration link?
A: Depending on when you submitted your request, and how much space was remaining in the event, we will still try to accommodate your original request. However, we cannot promise that your first choice will always be granted. We will ask you for three options during the application submission.
Q: What communication should I expect after I submit my transfer application?
A: You will receive a cancellation email for the event you are transferring out of, an email containing your registration link for the transferred event and a confirmation of the completed transfer request after the new registration link is emailed to you.

You will be contacted directly if your first choice is no longer available. If this is the case, we will follow up with you to confirm you still would like entry into your second or third choice of races.
Q: Can I transfer between regions (ie, a Oceania race to a European race)?
A: At this time, that option is not available.
Q: I previously withdrew from an IRONMAN Oceania event – can I return the refund and transfer into an event instead?

Q: Is taking the transfer option a better financial option than taking a refund and re-entering the new event?
A: If you want the chance to race an IRONMAN event in the same calendar year, the transfer option in most scenarios is better for you (depending on time of request and the available refund).
Q: What if I transfer into another event and I am unable to compete, am I eligible for a refund or additional transfer?
A: Once a transfer request has been completed, athletes are not eligible to receive a refund or any further transfers.

Q: I'm currently registered for the 2016 SunSmart IRONMAN Western Australia, 2016 Kellogg's Nutri-Grain IRONMAN 70.3 Taupo and/or 2016 IRONMAN 70.3 Ballarat, am I able to transfer across the calendar year?
A: As of June, 2016, yes you are now able to transfer across the calendar year for these events only. You will be able to transfer into an Oceania event which is available prior to the event you are transferring out of. Eg. 2016 SunSmart IRONMAN Western Australia will be able to transfer into any event prior to the 2017 SunSmart IRONMAN Western Australia.
Q: Why is the 2016 SunSmart IRONMAN Western Australia, 2016 Kellogg's Nutri-Grain IRONMAN 70.3 Taupo and/or 2016 IRONMAN 70.3 Ballarat able to transfer across the calendar year and not any other events?
A: These events under the old transfer program had no option to transfer as they were at the end of the calendar year. To ensure fairness across all events, all athletes have now got the option to transfer another event.

Audrey Hepburn Described Herself as "A Good Mixture of Defects"
Far from feeling beautiful all the time, Audrey Hepburn thought she was "a good mixture of defects"—a sentiment we LOVE.
-Lucia Peters
You're fabulous, you know that? And even if you have days where you feel decidedly UNfabulous, don't worry; everyone does—even Audrey Hepburn.
In the latest issue of Vanity Fair, Audrey's son, Luca Dotti, revealed that his mother didn't think she was nearly as perfect as the rest of the world did. Dotti's reflections come as part of a discussion of his new book, Audrey in Rome, which gathers roughly 2,500 candid photos of the Breakfast at Tiffany's star during her time in Rome.
Audrey apparently described herself as "a good mixture of defects": Said Dotti, "She thought she had a big nose and big feet, and she was too skinny and not enough breast. She would look in the mirror and say, 'I don't understand why people see me as beautiful."
Read Heidi Klum Saves Son + Nannies from Drowning (Everyone's Okay!)
I don't know about you, Bettys, but I love the phrase "a good mixture of defects." Maybe that's what we all are: Neither perfect nor a mess, but somewhere delightfully in between, resulting in a world full of utterly unique human beings.
We also love Audrey's thoughts about aging, of which she was apparently a big fan. Said Dotti, "She was always a little bit surprised by the efforts women made to look young. She was actually very happy about growing older because it meant more time for herself, more time for her family, and separation from the frenzy of youth and beauty that is Hollywood."
Audrey in Rome hits shelves everywhere on April 16. Snag it on Amazon—it's not to be missed!
Lucia Peters is BettyConfidential's senior editor.

The 1956 B-movie "The Mole People" had one of the strangest, most pedantic introductions in movie history: a USC professor sitting behind a desk, talking about the technological marvels that had allowed mankind to venture into space but not yet tackle the frontier of the world beneath our feet.
The professor, Frank C. Baxter, was an old hand at this. (He was the "Dr. Research" character in a series of specials made by the Bell System in the '50s. These educational films like "Hemo the Magnificent" and "The Unchained Goddess" were still circulating in the '70s when I was in elementary school.) And even though he was an English professor, he carried the intelligent air of a scientific expert.
When I came across "The Mole People" on TV the other night, it got me thinking: Would "Dr. Research" be considered an authoritative figure these days? Or would he be rejected as an elitist egghead?
It sometimes feels as if we are living in an age of the anti-intellectual, a time when actually knowing a lot about a particular subject is viewed with suspicion or derision.
To cite some recent examples:
• It was considered headline news this week when Bill Nye, aka "Bill Nye the Science Guy," said in an interview and in a YouTube video that the Earth has been scientifically proven to be 4.5 billion years old and that teaching otherwise, as people who believe in the literal interpretation of the Bible do, will harm American scientific progress.
"If we raise a generation of students who don't believe in the process of science, who think everything that we've come to know about nature and the universe can be dismissed by a few sentences translated into English from some ancient text, you're not going to continue to innovate," Nye told The Associated Press this week.
• Missouri Rep. Todd Akin, the Republican running for that state's U.S. Senate seat, caused a national uproar when he told a St. Louis TV interviewer that women who suffered "legitimate rape" could not get pregnant, because "the female body has ways to try to shut that whole thing down." Doctors called Akin's claim untrue, noting that some 32,000 pregnancies in the United Sates are caused every year by rape.
• While campaigning for president earlier this year, former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum decried President Barack Obama's efforts to make it possible for anyone to attend college, saying of Obama, "What a snob!"
• Many Republicans led by Oklahoma Sen. James Inhofe have declared human-caused global warming a hoax, in spite of the cascades of scientific evidence that it's real and that human beings cause it. (The award-winning documentary "Chasing Ice," due in theaters this fall, makes a stunning visual presentation of time-lapse images of receding glaciers around the world.) Inhofe's evidence includes a handful of climate-change deniers, the Bible, and bullying rhetoric that compares environmentalists to the Nazis.
The deepening divide over global warming can show up in even the most innocuous places.
A few months back, when Salt Lake City's Clark Planetarium screened the IMAX documentary "To the Arctic," which features astonishing nature footage of polar bears trying to survive on increasingly difficult terrain, the narrator made note that the polar bears' problems were being caused by global warming.
At that moment, Seth Jarvis, the planetarium's director, tensed up a bit. "We're going to catch hell for that," Jarvis told me, adding that he would get complaints from patrons who share Inhofe's opinion that global warning isn't real.
No one is immune from anti-scientific impulses not The Salt Lake Tribune (which publishes horoscopes every day), and not a place for science like the Clark Planetarium.
One of the films now showing at the planetarium's Hansen Star Theater is "Mayan Prophecies," which begins with a look at the mythology that the Mayan calendar foretells the end of the world this December.
The film, produced by the Houston Museum of Natural Science, starts with the damage caused by Hurricane Gilbert on the Yucatan Peninsula in 1988 and suggests that the Mayans predicted such events.
On the last page of the Dresden Codex, one of the few surviving Mayan books, "a cosmic monster gushes water from its mouth and from sky glyphs on its body," the narrator intones. "Is this the disaster Mayan astronomers saw in the heavens long ago? Or is there apocalypse still in our future?"
But as the film goes deeper, it explains how Mayan culture developed its astronomy and built pyramids aligned the setting sun at the summer and winter solstices, as a way to monitor seasons and predict the rains. It also argues that the end of the Mayan calendar on Dec. 21, 2012, is more of a reset button, something that's ultimately as much a non-event as Y2K was.
So, under cover of superstition, the Clark Planetarium sneaks some legitimate science into the lesson. That's so smart it's cool.

We disabled the factory installed Wireless Adapter (a DELL1520 with a BROADCOM chip set) and found that this had no effect on these observations and no matter what order for the previous descriptions are performed or what commands are used before the "airodump-ng",,,,the same behavior is observed.
For this system a VM BT4 POWER ON with only the following the above observations will occur:
airodump-ng -a wlan0
When the observed conditions begin (no APs listed in "airodump-ng") then a "startx" with the use of SERVICES---NETWORK ON and INTERNET--WICD will not lst any APs and no connection to our AP can be made.
On the other hand when the BT4 "startx" is executed after an initial POWER ON for BT4 the use of SERVICES---NETWORK ON and INTERNET--WICD will list many APs and allow a connection to our AP. And, FIREFOX as well as KONQUEROR will run and will maintain connection to our AP. These were usable for over 2 hours. By the time the system was SHUTDOWN it was well over 5 hours and the connection was still active.
Thanks for your time, advice, help, and views!Q!!!!

Anti-Piracy "Mafia" in Finland Raid House, Confiscate Winnie the Pooh Laptop
Jason Mick
November 23, 2012 9:16 AM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
(Source: South Park Studios)
The piracy police made one 9-year-old a very unhappy camper
Word to the kids: don't pirate files or your folks may have their houses raided and your toys seized.
A 9-year-old Finnish girl,
according to
, happened to be very into a particular local pop star named Chisu. So innocently, the 9-year-old went onto Google Inc. (GOOG) ubiquitous search engine. Lo-and-behold, the first result to pop up was
The Pirate Bay
, the world's biggest torrent and magnet-link site, which also happens to have been
launched in neighboring Sweden
The girl tried to install a program to read the torrent files she downloaded, but the downloads all mysteriously failed. Upset, she complained to her father, who took her to the store to purchase the Chisu album -- legally.
But it turns out that the downloads didn't fail. Instead they were malicious trackers, which flagged her home internet protocol (IP) address as an infringer. Working with her ISP, the local
Copyright Information AND Anti-Piracy Centre
(a sister organization to the
Recording Industry Association of America
) sent her father a suspicious letter, demanding a payment of 600€ and to sign a legally binding letter promising not to tell anyone about the payment or the threat.
[Chisu on YouTube]
Her father, confused, did not respond.
That's when local police raided the house in order to "assist" in the investigation. The father in the case recalls thinking that he'd wound up on the bad side of Mafioso or something, commenting, "I got the feeling that there had been people from the Mafia demanding money at the door. We have not done anything wrong with my daughter. If adults do not always know how to use a computer and the web, how can you assume that children or the elderly – or a 9-year-old girl – knows what they are doing at any given time online? This is the pinnacle of absurdity. I can see artists are in a position, but this requires education and information, not resource-consuming lawsuits."
The little pirate paid dearly for her "crime against humanity"; the armed police raiding her house seized her Winnie the Pooh laptop as "evidence" to be used in the case against her father.
There is a silver lining: Chisu, whose music the nine-year-old so-loved that she put her father in legal jeopardy, reached out to the family after hearing the story. She points them to her Spotify, where people can listen to her music for free, commenting, "I hope that the matter will be resolved soon and sorry to my 9-year-old girls."
Finnish police seized a certain little pirate's Winnie the Pooh laptop.
[Image Source: IBTimes]
Joonas Mäkinen of Finland's Pirate Party was outraged at the story. He praises Chisu's response, but complains the big media industry is holding artists hotage, leaving them with few real options to help abused fans. He comments:
It is sad to see how even the big artists have no idea what CIAPC / TTVK is doing in their name. And the worst part is that even after learning about this, like Chisu did just now and took part in the discussion on Facebook, they can't stop it since all copyright protection and monitoring is centralized.
I hope all musicians realize that the fan hunt that involves confiscating laptops and signing deals that require you to be silent about the payments are severely hurting the image of copyright and creators. Authors of works should actively rise up to say NO to what CIAPC/TTVK is doing if they wish to keep their fans.
The Pirate Party has
gained its first seats
in the European Union's Parliament, following public outrage at the Orwellian anti-piracy tactics that have been sweeping the continent.
The CIAPC confirmed, according to
, that the girl was among the pirates targeted by its anti-piracy sting operations.
"Nowadays, security guys break the Mac every single day. Every single day, they come out with a total exploit, your machine can be taken over totally. I dare anybody to do that once a month on the Windows machine." -- Bill Gates

Rosie - from Clermont , FL
It's important to constantly pick up and turn rolled fondant when rolling it out, to help prevent sticking. If the fondant has absorbed all the confectioners' sugar you've placed on the surface when you pick it up, add additional. Some decorators prefer to coat the surface with a thin coating of vegetable shortening. But again, you need to pick up and turn the fondant when you roll it. Hope that helps!

Page 435
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That the Secretary of the Interior is authorized to withdraw as much as may be necessary from the fund on deposit in the Treasury of the United States arising from the proceeds of the sale of timber and lumber within the Red Lake Reservation in Minnesota, according to the provisions of the Act
Page 436
of May 18, 1916 (39 Stat. 137), to the credit of the Red Lake Indians in Minnesota, and to pay therefrom $100 to each member of the Red Lake Band of Chippewa Indians of Minnesota who is living at the date of enactment of this Act.

Monday Morning Quarterback Week 7
The Good
The Bad
San Francisco 49ersSeattle Seahawks
A week after the 49ers got handled easily by the Giants, they got back on the winning track. Alex Smith did not have a stellar game, but he did enough in the second half to get the 49ers the comeback win. He threw a 12-yard TD pass to Delanie Walker in the third quarter that gave the 49ers a lead they would not relinquish.
Russell Wilson could not sustain the Week Six success he had against the shaky New England secondary. He was just 9-of-23 for 122 yards against the tough Niners defense and the Seahawks could not muster any decent offense in the second half. Smith threw for just 140 yards, and that's not good enough for a championship caliber quarterback.
Tennessee TitansBuffalo Bills
Matt Hasselbeck did not lose his cool after the Titans fell behind. While he had the good fortune to benefit from Chris Johnson's 195-yard rushing effort, he completed 22-of-33 passes and hit Nate Washington with the game-winning touchdown pass. Ryan Fitzpatrick threw for 225 yards and three touchdowns in the loss.
The Bills overcame an early deficit and rallied to take a lead with two Fitzpatrick TD passes in the third quarter. However, when the Bills had a chance to put the game away in the fourth quarter, Fitzpatrick could not sustain the momentum.
Dallas CowboysCarolina Panthers
Tony Romo completed 24-of-34 passes for 227 yards and he did not throw an interception, and that had to please head coach Jason Garrett. Romo's second-quarter touchdown pass to Miles Austin was thrown with a feather-like touch that few quarterbacks could match.
Cam Newton did not have bad numbers, but he was not able to bring the Panthers a much-needed win. He appears to be struggling with his confidence as well as his playmaking. Newton threw for 233 yards and ran for 64 yards.
Houston TexansBaltimore Ravens
A week after getting taken apart, the Texans bounced back and beat the Ravens without mercy. Matt Schaub was on top of his game, completing 23-of-37 passes for 256 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions. His accuracy put the pressure on Baltimore's shaky secondary.
Joe Flacco was not up to the task of matching Schaub's sharp performance. Flacco was just 21-of-43 for 147 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions. Injuries hurt the Ravens' defense and Flacco was not up to the task of carrying them.
Indianapolis ColtsCleveland Browns
The Browns may have lost this game, but Brandon Weeden appeared to hold his own in his personal battle with Colts' rookie sensation Andrew Luck. Weeden completed 25-of-41 passes for 264 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions.
Luck did what he had to for the Colts to get the win at home, but he did not have a razor sharp game against Cleveland's defense. He threw for 186 yards while completing 16-of-29 passes and did not throw a TD pass. He was sacked three times and he fumbled once while taking some big hits.
Minnesota VikingsArizona Cardinals
The Cardinals did not appear to have much of a chance because John Skelton had to play in place of Kevin Kolb, but the slowish Skelton made the most of his opportunity and threw for 262 yards while completing 25-of-36 passes. He nearly got the Cardinals back in the game after a slow start.
It wasn't all good for Skelton as his third quarter pass was picked off by Harrison Smith and returned 31 yards for a touchdown. Christian Ponder is starting to struggle badly. He threw for 58 yards and was intercepted twice.
New York GiantsWashington Redskins
While the Giants won the game, it was Robert Griffin III who continues to write a sensational script in his rookie season. He completed 20-of-28 passes for 258 yards with two touchdowns and one interception. He also ran nine times for 89 yards and kept his cool against the Giants' relentless pass rush. While Eli Manning did not have a great game, he threw a perfect 77-yard fourth-quarter TD pass to Victor Cruz that gave the Giants the victory.
Manning struggled with his consistency most of the game. When the Giants' defense recovered an RGIII fumble, Manning threw an interception on the next play. It was one of the two picks he threw in the game.
Green Bay PackersSt. Louis Rams
Aaron Rodgers is back in MVP form after a shaky start. He riddled the St. Louis defense, completing 30-of-37 passes for 342 yards with three TDs and no interceptions. His 39-yard fourth-quarter scoring pass to Randall Cobb while running to his left was perfectly placed. Sam Bradford threw the ball well for the Rams, completing 21-of-34 passes for 255 yards.
Bradford did all he could for the Rams. He can't match the performance of Rodgers or other elite quarterbacks and that's going to be a shortcoming for the Rams for the foreseeable future.
New Orleans SaintsTampa Bay Buccaneers
Another scintillating performance from Drew Brees. He threw for 377 yards and had four scoring passes, all in the first half. Josh Freeman was equal to the task. He led a never-say-die Tampa Bay offense by throwing for 420 yards with four TD passes and he was not intercepted.
While Brees opened the game in amazing fashion, he was rather ordinary in the second half. Much of that had to do with a more conservative outlook but he could not find the end zone with any of his second-half passes.
New England PatriotsNew York Jets
Tom Brady overcame an inconsistent effort by leading the Patriots on a desperation drive in the final moments of the fourth quarter that allowed Stephen Gostkowski to kick the game-tying field goal. He later led another FG drive in overtime that gave New England the win. Brady also threw two TD passes. Mark Sanchez threw for 328 yards and was aggressive.
While Sanchez had one of his better games, the Jets had to settle for field goals on two late drives. If he had gotten the Jets into the end zone on either one, they likely would have won the game.
Oakland RaidersJacksonville Jaguars
After an uninspired start, Carson Palmer led the Raiders on the comeback trail and he helped secure the overtime victory. Palmer threw for 298 yards and threw a touchdown pass to Denarius Moore in the third quarter and also ran for the game-tying touchdown.
Blaine Gabbert suffered a shoulder injury that forced him out of the game after getting off to a hot start that included a 42-yard TD pass to Cecil Shorts. Backup quarterback Chad Henne was unable to get the Jaguars offense moving, throwing for 71 yards.

Photo gallery: One thousand motorcyclists depart Rancho Cucamonga on Run for the Wall
RANCHO CUCAMONGA -- More than a thousand riders rolled out of Victoria Gardens Wednesday morning to begin a cross-country motorcycle trek to honor military prisoners of war and soldiers missing or killed in action.
Clad in denim and leather, participants sang the "Star Spangled Banner" and watched as aircraft soared overhead in a "missing man" formation.
The group was excited for the long journey to Washington, D.C., - the 25th annual Run for the Wall event.
"Gentlemen, start your engines," yelled one participant.
Another called out, "How far are we going?" Many in the crowd replied, "All the way! "
The 10-day ride honors American military prisoners of war, and those killed and missing in action during war. Many who ride are Vietnam veterans.
"Everybody has their own reason for participating in Run for the Wall," said Laurie Clay, coordinator of the southern route. "That reason could be honoring a loved one or a lost friend, or someone trying to rid themselves of some memories they want to leave at the wall or leave along the way from their military experience. We ride to ensure our country doesn't forget there are POWs, KIAs, and MIAs unaccounted for. There are 83,000-plus from all the wars. "
There are two routes, both start in Rancho Cucamonga - one through central states and a southern route. Each of the two main motorcades can be up to 5 miles long and are divided into "platoons," with a platoon leader and about 200 feet between each on the road.
"We're leaving this parking lot with a little over a thousand motorcycles between the two routes," said Ray McDowell, president of the Run for the Wall organization. "This is the biggest turnout we've ever had. It's awesome and it's great to see the people support Run for the Wall. We never forget the POWs, the KIAs and the MIAs and that's who we ride for. We ride for the ones who cannot, and that's why we're here. "
Prior to rolling out on Wednesday morning, dozens of platoons huddled with heir platoon leader for directions on hand signals, coordination on moving in and out of a group, and emergency situations.
The two main route groups meet up in Virginia and will arrive in Washington D.C. for Memorial Day weekend on Friday, May 24.
The riders will be at Arlington National Cemetery for a ceremony at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, and gather together at the Lincoln Memorial and at the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall.
The event was started by Vietnam veterans to honor service members in that conflict. Today, the event honors military members from all conflicts.

Handheld Metal Alloy Analyzers Provide Traceability
Designed to eliminate guesswork in verifying metal alloys for manufacturing quality assurance, the Niton XL2 and XL3 x-ray fluorescence (XRF) handheld analyzers provide analysis within seconds anywhere, any time, the company says.
New Product Post: 6/29/2010
Related Topics:
Designed to eliminate guesswork in verifying metal alloys for manufacturing quality assurance, the Niton XL2 and XL3 x-ray fluorescence (XRF) handheld analyzers provide analysis within seconds anywhere, any time, the company says. The instruments provide storage of all test results in a data format. Communication options include Bluetooth wireless, USB and RS-232 serial communication ports.
The analyzers come standard with Niton Data Transfer (NDT) software, a suite of data management utilities that enables users to set operator permissions, print certificates of analysis to document results or operate the unit remotely from a PC. The NDT file format preserves and protects data from each sample analysis, the company says.
Suited for small to mid-sized operations, the ergonomically designed XL2 features a daylight-readable display with large icons. Other features include customizable menus, multiple language options and a standard range of more than 25 elements.
The XL3 with geometrically optimized large area drift detector (GOLDD) technology features improved sensitivity and reduced measurement time, the company says. The unit measures light element content (magnesium, aluminum, silicon, phosphorus and sulfur) without the need for helium or vacuum purging. This provides the capability to analyze additional grades, including titanium alloys, aluminum and silicon bronzes, and aluminum alloys, for silicon and magnesium content. The unit can also identify SS303, SS416 and other free-machining stainless steels based on sulfur content. An integrated CCD camera records an image of actual test results along with analysis data. An optional small spot feature enables users to isolate and test small sample areas, such as welds and seams.

For PowerMac they use the IBM xlc to compile the MMA kernel. I'm not sure
what they use for the front end (CodeWarrior?). The MMA speeds on the
PowerMac are so good because of the excellence of xlc.

Who knows if Debussy really said it.
In discussing the early 19th century German composer Carl Maria Von Weber, he reportedly exclaimed that Weber achieved his unique sound "through the scrutiny of the soul of each instrument."
Thursday, in the first of four concerts in the Balboa Theatre that mark the conclusion of David Atherton's 25 year tenure as the Mainly Mozart Festival Orchestra's music director, you could say Atherton and the orchestra's success with Weber was achieved through the scrutiny of the soul of Weber.
In a satisfying program that also included Mozart's Overture to "Don Giovanni" and "Sinfonia Concertante," and Jean Françaix's all-too-brief "Mozart new-look" on Serenade from "Don Giovanni," Weber's Symphony No. 1 was a revelation.
A contemporary of Beethoven, Weber had the misfortune (in terms of posterity) and good luck (in terms of his success during his lifetime) to be living during a transitional period when the classical style was giving way to the romantic era.
Weber was considerably more successful in the opera house than Beethoven, but he was less capable in the concert hall. He wrote several concertos and only two symphonies, which are generally considered lightweight, especially when compared to Beethoven's mighty works.
But Atherton knows there's nothing lightweight about the soul of Weber. He possessed one of the most original, you could even say nutty, minds in the history of music and Atherton reveled in the unending surprises and musical riches in this too often underestimated score.
One moment the music is moving along in a relatively conventional fashion with the strings in full voice, and the next moment everything stops and out of nowhere there's a flute solo, or some odd instrumental combination asserts itself, or (in the second and third movements) a sustained, otherworldly chorale-like passage in the winds seems to arrive direct from heaven.
Atherton made it all sound absolutely coherent and yet never predictable; he approached it with complete seriousness but also acknowledged Weber's refusal to take himself as seriously as Beethoven.
On the concert's first half, Atherton treated Mozart with even more seriousness. Especially in the Overture to "Don Giovanni," it bordered on severity. Given the weight of the interpretation, the Overture never got off the ground.
The "Sinfonia Concertante," with violinist William Preucil and violist Cynthia Phelps, was more successful. Preucil and Phelps proved an ideal match and they were a model of collegiality.
The orchestra sounded a little rough, even strident at times, as its members are still getting used to each other, but they matched the collaborative approach set by Preucil, Phelps and ultimately Atherton.
You could say that together, they scrutinized the soul of Mozart.

Friedman became the talk of the town and launched a successful franchise on the back of his triumph.
LAGARDE: …But also throughout the entire organization… Friedman: I know how you feel today.
But as Friedman reports, while the attacks were reduced, they were hardly eliminated.
"I was seeking information and I was operating under the assumption that he would not tell people," Friedman adds.
The ideological inconsistency also grates on Friedman, for good reason.
"He calls it E.T., energy technology," Obama said of Friedman.
And given Friedman's thesis, how will we muster the social capital to welcome all these strangers with open arms?
Just add more reserves and believe in Ben Bernanke, whose mentor was Friedman.
Chaplain Davidowitz was sent home wounded, and Friedman accompanied his own division back.
Economics textbooks stop short of mentioning Friedman or Phelps.

Today I rode my bike to the store for ice cream. I've been having major sweet cravings lately- especially for ice cream- and could be denied no longer. I tried to justify a trip by trying to come up with a grocery list for the week, but was unable to take my mind off of the delicious ice cream that I was soon to have in my possession long enough to concentrate on the task at hand. So without even changing out of my work clothes, I headed to the store. Despite rolling up my pant leg, I still, as @cycleboredom likes to say, got hipster on my pants. But it was worth it, because the ice cream was delicious.

Python Bindings for Cel and CrystalSpace
CrystalSpace and Cel both have their own scripting bindings. The modules are pretty extensive and should give you access to most of the c++ api.
The CrystalSpace python module is called cspace, and the cel counterpart is blcelc. Also, a slightly higher level module is available in cel for entity behaviours, called pycel.
Additionally there exists a module called pycscegui in standard cs distribution that wraps the cegui-cs connector, plus the pycsextra module in CSExtra repository wrapping some additional plugins there, notably the cs-qt connector.
Ways of using python with crystalspace
- Pure Python cs-only app.
- Pure Python cs+cel app.
- Embedded inside a cs app through cspython.
- Embedded inside a celstart app through the python behaviour layer.
The easiest way to start by far would be the fourth method, as it eases you of all initialization of cs, and lets centering on the logic.
cspace Tutorial apps
You can find them at scripts/python/tutorial* with cs standard distribution.
Celstart Tutorial apps
Some simple celstart applications to get you started.
Note all of this examples are generated from .blend sources using blender2crystal.

Transferring all the fresh property qualities of self-consolidating concrete (SCC) from the lab to the field is now much easier. The introduction of two new portable rheometers, devices that measure a concrete's viscosity, will allow technicians to correlate lab results with field performance.
Measuring viscosity offers producers important information about fresh concrete's workability. Using technical terms, these units measure a mix's strength growth, Bingham parameters of yield stress, and plastic viscosity. In layman's terms, they measure thickness, robustness, or creaminess.
Researchers have used rheometers for decades. They look very similar to a mixer. A special meter records the resistance of the blade as it rotates through a semi-liquid material. In pure research, the devices can record the mixes' stiffening as the cementitious material begins to hydrate and harden the matrix. While the spread and flow tests provide an indication of an SCC's flowability, researchers have relied on rheometers to provide a quantifiable and repeatable measurement of a concrete's viscosity.
The combination of results often leads to accurately determining a fresh concrete's ability to flow without segregation. The less viscous the material that flows well, the better the mix.
Two respected concrete instrument manufacturers have recently introduced field-ready devices that measure viscosity. Both provide strong co-relation with field and lab tests. And both units use procedures that can easily be accomplished in the field with minimal technician training.
How they work
The ICAR rheometer, distributed by Germann Instruments, of Copenhagen, Denmark, is a fully portable test device. The unit is about the size of a drill and can be operated by hand or positioned above a standard container. It is accurate in m measuring a flow curve or performing a stress growth test for almost the full range of concrete workability, ranging from a 2-inch slump to SCC. from
The device is accurate enough to detect changes in workability and rheology and is well-suited for measuring high-microfines concrete and other highly thixotropic concrete mixtures. It's portable and durable so technicians can make routine rheology measurements in the field.
The BT2 rheometer, designed by Schleibinger Geräte, of Buchach, Germany, is geared to production and field measurements. It's accuracy is sufficient to detect any change in a recipe's viscosity from batch to batch. Precast producers in Germany have used the device to help reduce variability on even small production runs of SCC.
The technician places a small volume of fresh concrete into a shallow sample container. He then positions the rheometer, centering three probes in the sample volume.
As the technician turns a hand crank one complete round at a constant speed, an internal processor monitors the resistance of each probe's movement in the mix. The processor detects the momentum and angular velocity of each probe. The battery-powered processor yields a final output average from the probes.
The output data is transferred to a companion palmtop portable computer that uses a special software program to display relative yield stress and relative viscosity.
Both rheometer manufacturers have posted technical information about their instruments at their Web sites. Both market directly to the user.

cup feeding on expressed milk
Hi! Is it true that it is much better to cup feed an expressed milk rather than to feed the bub in a bottle? I am concern of a "choking" incident if i will cup feed my bub.
4th November 2013 07:14 AM #2
Dear Nadinne,
There is an article here from the Australian Breastfeeding Association on cup-feeding.
Once breastfeeding is well-established (i.e. between 8 and 12 weeks) you can use a bottle to feed your baby expressed breastmilk without the concern of nipple confusion which cup feeding guards against.
Does this answer your question?
Warm wishes,
5th November 2013 04:25 AM #3
I just wanted to add that with 'cup feeding' you are not actually pouring breastmilk from the cup into the babies mouth. You are right, this would make them cough and babies (under 6 months) cannot drink breastmilk in this way. Instead, you use a very open cup and tilt it near their mouth so that the baby can actually lap up the milk. The main reason for this technique is to stop nipple confusion. This is when a newborn baby becomes confused between an artificial teat (from a bottle) and the breast and it interferes with their ability to latch onto the breast properly.
I believe you said in another post that your baby is a few months old now and it also sounds like breastfeeding is well-established. Therefore, I think using a bottle to feed your baby the expressed breastmilk should be best.
Please do ask any further questions you have about this here.
Best wishes,

West Kentucky Community and Technical College plays a significant role in the local economy and is a sound investment from multiple perspectives. Students benefit from improved lifestyles and increased earnings. Taxpayers benefit from a larger economy and lower social costs. Finally, the community as a whole benefits from increased job and investment opportunities, higher business revenues, greater availability of public funds, and an eased tax burden.
According to a recent study by Economic Modeling Specialists Inc. (EMSI), WKCTC contributes more than $126 million each year to its community through a combination of college operations, student spending, and productivity of graduates in the workforce.
The $126 million annual economic impact is broken down into two ways. WKCTC alumni contribute $107.4 million in added regional income each year; this contribution is due to the higher earnings of former WKCTC students and the increased output of businesses. The college's operations generate $19.5 million in net added income, from its payroll as well as operating and capital expenditures. These two factors combine to provide a total of $126.9 million in income to the college's service area economy each year.
The study of West Kentucky Community and Technical College's economic and community impact was performed by Economic Modeling Specialists, Inc. EMSI provides socioeconomic impact and strategic planning tools for community and technical colleges throughout the United States and Canada.

Paula Deen releases statement, begs for forgiveness
The Food Network is putting a fork in Paula Deen's TV cooking shows. The network announced Friday it would not renew Deen's contract when it expires at the end of the month. The move follows a week of controversy over the celebrity chef's casual admission to using the racially-charged N-word during a deposition for a pending lawsuit. Deen also offered a public apology on Friday.
In an earlier statement on Thursday, Deen blamed her use of the word on her Southern upbringing. The celebrity chef is being sued by a former employee who claims she was subjected to racist, sexist and inappropriate remarks while working as a manager at Deen's Oyster House restaurant in Georgia.

An Old Hotel Gets A New Name: Meet the Sheraton New York Times Square Hotel
By Terry Trucco
Anyone who has seen the movie Taxi Driver knows that Times Square wasn't always a desirable location for a hotel. But that was a long time ago. Now even hotels that aren't all that close to Times Square are adding the spot-where-the-New-Year's-Eve-ball-drops to their name.
The latest Times Square pretender is the Sheraton New York Hotel, which today augmented its name to become the Sheraton New York Times Square Hotel – even though the hotel is ten blocks north of the Times Square's throbbing heart, where Broadway, Seventh Avenue and 42nd Street meet.
At least you can see Times Square from the Sheraton. The same cannot be said for the TRYP New York Times Square South, which is a lot closer to Madison Square Garden and Penn Station than Times Square. (more…)

To finish the look, apply wax to your fingertips, making sure to smooth the wax over all of your fingers, then simply pinch the wax onto the ends of your hair, applying as much or as little as needed.
3 . Style Bangs Forward Using Gel
Apply a small amount of gel to your fingertips and then using your fingers, rake through your bangs to the ends for hold and texture.
4 . Apply Hairspray
To finish, apply a minimal amount of hairspray from an arms length distance to the top, sides and back. Take care not to use too much or you will end up with a white, flaky residue which looks like dandruff.
