Thales Leites looked good last night - quite shocked he was trading punches with Watson...
Hats off to Tom Watson he did well considering who he was up against last night- just needs to cut down some of s*** he talks, I get it he needs to self promote himself but he hasn't done/achieved anything to warrant that behaviour.
I'm not a fan but I thought he done really well
Doesn't have a signature anymore
If Watson ever wants to make that next step, he needs to not fight for a year, and go spent a whole year training in America and training wrestling 90% of that time.

text: So I have a few Questions/Feedback. I realize this is a beta, so I'm here mostly to ask if things are working as intended or there is still work to be done on them. 1) Is GUI for the placement of probes final? It seems a bit... un-intuitive. From what I see there is no list of the probes I added anywhere. And to manipulate them, I have to search for them in the scene view. Also clicking add probe adds a probe... somewhere? It is not selected after wards and I have to navigate the scene view to search for it. I was starting to get a bit overwhelmed and I only added probes to a small part of the scene. 2) This is a bigger one for me. I like color correcting the lightmaps a lot (the images themselves). I usually add some more color and tint the whole lightmap a bit, some more contrast etc etc (I'm using single lightmaps mainly). Now the lightprobes seem to get their data from some cache which isn't affected from the lightmap image itself. So my problem is, I tint (let's say) my lightmaps red, but the lightprobes have the original colors and there is no way to edit them. I am sure that there is a very good technical reason why it works like it does, but I think there should be a way to edit the light probe data as well (maybe there is and I haven't found it? Or will there be one?). Can't the light probe data be exported as an image as well (an .exr) so I can edit them? That should work nicely and shouldn't be that hard to implement.

" Brand: Quaker / Type: Snacks "
I was in Home Bargains tonight picking up some snacks for packed lunches etc and came across these snacks at only 10p for a 30g pack. To be totally honest I think that for me to buy 'berry' flavour corn snacks, they would have had to be 10p, because the flavour just didn't sound right for a savoury snack.
The packet itself looked very similar to the one pictured here, and the flavour was just one of many, which now belong to the snack a jack range. Far gone are the days when you could just but salt n vinegar. Upon opening the pack you could get the distinct smell of berry, and I immediately thought that I had wasted my money - even if it was only 10p.
How wrong I could be. The pack itself was crammed with round disc shaped of rice and corn snacks. They are slightly hard on the exterior but soft in the middle and taste absolute delicious. The berry flavour works well with the rice and corn, which is something I really thought would not work. It wasn't tangy but just a nice mild taste.
The best thing about these snacks are that they are only 2%Fat. and there is also only a trace of salt per pack. This is fantastic for those who are on a diet, or are trying to keep an eye out on what they are eating. They are also suitable for vegetarians and coeliacs. Add to this the fact that they have no artificial sweeteners or colours, I personally think youb would be buying a great snack.
Would I buy again? Yes I would. Certainly at 10p. Not sure at 30p plus, but the health benefits may sway me. I prefer the salt and vinegar flavour, but these are quite acceptable. Give them a try.

Snack a jacks. Rather odd name, or is it just me? No matter, these are splendid little crispy treats.
I am sugar's whore, and therefore must have sweet versions of everything, including crisps. Yes, savoury crisps just will not do!
But why should I be a social pariah while everyone else around me is getting emotional over pringles and quavers and so on? These berry flavour snack a jacks fit neatly into such awkward situations.
These live in Tesco, but I have sneak suspicion you could purchase in any supermarket. They come in either 25g packs (49p) or multipacks containing 6 22g packs (£1.99). Why they decrease the multipack bags by 3g is beyond my comprehension, but seems they feel it's the right thing to do. Fair enough. Weirdos.
They're made by Quaker, by the way. The oat people, who thoughtfully use an old farmer-ish man as their logo. I suspect this is meant to soothe us with thoughts of caring grandfathers and knowledgeable wise elders and lull us into the subconscious where we believe this brand is a trustworthy one with gentle old folks at the helm. Quaker cares, people! They like the elderly, we must believe in their good nature and kind hearts! Hoho what sneaks. I don't hate on them though.
So these are kind of like mini rice cakes in a bag, involving corn and..rice and all that. Is that healthier than the traditional potato-based crisp? I let you be the judge.
Calorie wise these are pretty fair, with the multipack bags containing 97 calories. You get a decent helping in each bag, infact when emptied the contents will fill a standard cereal bowl (yes I do this, I wouldn't want to miss out on any of the crumb action left at the bottom of the bag. A little sad, I agree!).
When looking at the s-jacks (dyu like my cool little pet name?), you be excited to discover they are a vibrant shade of pinky purple. Bit alarming at first, I must say. But being a girl I'm into it. Pink food! Woohoo! It's almost as if they've been soaked in purple fruit juice.
They are actually rather inconsistent. Some are thicker and have a traditional rice cake appearance, whereas others look kind of..haggard. Thinner and a bit crazy and jaggery. The difference in these can be noted in the texture, the thickies being softer and puffy and the thinnies having more of a brisk, hard crunch.
There is also marked variation in flavour intensity (blimey, get me being all scientific). There will be ones that have a more vivid pink colour, blinking out at you, as if to say "save me to last, I am more tasty than the rest"
These are really satisfying to crunch into. All munchy and noisy. The flavour is quite sweet, but not maniac-inducing sweet. It's definitely a fake berry flavour, though. It really is like they covered these in a berry cordial drink, and although I think they're delicious I'm not completely convinced that everyone would feel the same. The corny, savoury-baked taste with the sweet artificial berry might need some getting used to.
Quaker haven't got carried away with the flavourings though, so kudos there. I'm going to sit on the fence, and suggest if you like the caramel version of these, or if you like trashy things like strawberry laces (shame on you!) then you should give these a go.
I also get a hint of turkish delight flavour from these. I'm fairly certain it's part of my fevered imagination, an effect of the pink colour perhaps, but there we are. Just thought I'd throw it out there.
All in all, a satisfying munch. Perhaps good as a lower-calorie alternative to toffee popcorn? Or for when you require sugar but don't want to go piggy on chocolate? Whatever, go crazy.
I like them a lot, but I think it's very much down to individual tastes.
I'll probably get over the novelty soon, and when I think about it they're rather expensive since there are apples to be freely plucked off the tree outside.
Most people who are dieting are familiar with Snack-a-Jacks products: they're low fat corn and rice snacks that come in a variety of flavours and come in either snack packets (like crisp bags) or a larger flat cakes which you can cover in toppings.
I bought my first bag of Berry Flavour Snack-a-Jacks in Sainsbury's for 45p (for a 30g bag) and then a few days later bought a six-pack (each bag 25g) for £2.00 as they were so nice!
When you first open the bag there's a sweet berry smell which makes you want to dive straight in! Some of the bags look quite flat and I expected to see lots of crumbs and broken ones but I was surprised that most were still intact although you still get a few bits at the bottom.
The individual snacks are more-or-less the same size as shown on the bag, about an inch and a half in diameter, and they're the same colour too, mainly a light pink with highlights of yellow. The only difference with the picture and the product is that they're not all such a regular shape. Some are quite twisted and sort of remind me of prawn crackers in the way they're curled over. Some also have a bit of a shine to them, like they've been glazed.
Now for the taste! They're very sweet and actually quite more-ish which I think sort of defeats the objective of having a low fat snack because I want to eat more than one pack (when I bought the six-pack I actually ate two packs in succession before I restrained myself!)
Their flavour is definitely berries, mixed berries though as they're not quite strawberry and not quite blackcurrant either. They sort of remind me of those berry jelly sweets. The ones with the darker colouring seem to have stronger flavouring than the others.
They have a very, very crunchy texture but it's not dry, I didn't need to worry too much about having a drink while I ate them.
They're suitable for vegetarians, coeliacs and contain no artificial colours or sweeteners. And the ingredients show that they're suitable for vegans too.
Overall, these make a great snack if you're dieting but craving something really sweet and the berry flavour is something a bit different to most other snacks.
Rice, maize (with the germ removed), sugar, berry flavour [juice concentrates (blackcurrant, strawberry, raspberry), flavourings], vegetable concentrates, sunflower oil, soya lecithin, salt.

I am a big fan of the Snack a Jacks range - they are great for elevenses or when you need to grab something on the go. The range is extensive and they even produce popcorn in a variety of flavours.
Snack a Jacks are rice cakes that are made of rice and corn and are available in a variety of flavours including chocolate chip, chocolate orange, caramel, salt and vinegar, cheese and their newest addition - Berry flavour!
They are available in multi-packs of 6 30g bags and they are also available as the larger rice cakes. These are good for lunch - I spread them with cream cheese and cucumber or marmite - yum!
I tried the sweet Berry flavour for the first time yesterday. I was a bit dubious as to whether they would taste nice but as the sweet caramel ones are my favourite I thought I would give them a try. The packaging is plain but modern and have the Snack a Jacks logo in the top left hand corner with a photo of the product underneath. It has a dark pink background and it also include adult's daily guidlines in the bottom left corner. They have a diameter of about 3-4cm and are pink in colour which is a nice touch. The taste was very delicate and reminded me of Rainbow Drops.
The pack contains:
117 calories
10.2g Sugars
0.05g Fat
0.01g Saturates
and trace salt
They feature less than 2% fat which makes them a good snack if you are on a diet.
Overall I am very impressed with this new flavour and will definately be adding them to my shopping list.

Scarborough's fact check compared Cheney lie to accurate Edwards remark
During MSNBC's After Hours coverage following the October 5 vice presidential debate [1], Scarborough Country host and former U.S. Representative Joe Scarborough (R-FL) compared Vice President Dick Cheney's false debate claim that he has "not suggested there's a connection between Iraq and 9-11" to a factually correct statement by Senator John Edwards: that the Bush administration's tort reform plan, "according to the bipartisan Congressional Budget Office, amounts to about half of 1 percent of health-care costs in this country."
Referencing former Isuzu Motors corporate spokesman Joe Isuzu [2] (who, in a series of "offbeat" commercials from 1986 to 1990, told a series of obviously outrageous lies in support of the company's products), Scarborough said the following in the early hours of October 6:
SCARBOROUGH: The first Joe Isuzu minute was when Dick Cheney said, "Connection? I never said there was a connection." The second one was when John Edwards said, "Lawsuits impacting medical costs? What are you talking about?"
But, as Media Matters for America has noted [3], the Congressional Budget Office report [4] cited by Edwards confirms that the tort reform favored by the Bush administration (a $250,000 cap on non-economic damages that would reduce doctors' malpractice premiums by 25 percent to 30 percent) would have a minimal impact on the high costs of health care. According to the report, "[M]alpractice costs amounted to an estimated $24 billion in 2002, but that figure represents less than 2 percent of overall health care spending. Thus, even a reduction of 25 percent to 30 percent in malpractice costs would lower health care costs by only about 0.4 percent to 0.5 percent, and the likely effect on health insurance premiums would be comparably small."
On the other hand, Cheney's claim -- that he never suggested a connection between Iraq and the September 11 attacks -- is false. On September 14, 2003, Cheney said the following on NBC's Meet the Press: "If we're successful in Iraq, if we can stand up a good representative government in Iraq, that secures the region so that it never again becomes a threat to its neighbors or to the United States, so it's not pursuing weapons of mass destruction, so that it's not a safe haven for terrorists, now we will have struck a major blow right at the heart of the base, if you will, the geographic base of the terrorists who have had us under assault now for many years, but most especially on 9-11."

Milwaukee • The Jazz overcame a 13-point second-half deficit, but couldn't hold onto a lead in the final minute of the fourth quarter, eventually losing 109-108 to the Milwaukee Bucks in overtime.
Enes Kanter put back Paul Millsap's missed 3-pointer with 1.6 seconds left, but the Jazz didn't get another possession.
The Jazz were led by 23 points and 15 rebounds from Derrick Favors, despite the third-year forward not playing in the fourth quarter or overtime. Down the stretch, coach Tyrone Corbin stuck with the group that brought the Jazz back: Alec Burks, Gordon Hayward, Paul Millsap, Enes Kanter and DeMarre Carroll.
Paul Millsap also recorded a double-double with 22 poitns and 14 rebounds, while Alec Burks added 19 points and Kanter finished with 18 points and 10 rebounds.
But the Jazz were ultimately undone by free throws. Despite shooting 31 free throws (18 more than the Bucks) the Jazz missed crucial ones. With an opportunity to put the Jazz up four, Millsap split free throws with 14 seconds left in regulation. Then, with a chance to tie, Carroll split a pair with 34 seconds left in overtime.
The Jazz had four opportunities in the final 10 seconds, but twice lost the ball out of bounds, and missed two 3-pointers, one by Randy Foye.

You probably don't know this, but I wrote a book! Simon, Who is Called Peter has just been published by Wipf and Stock Publishers, and it's also available through Amazon. I'm super excited about it, and I'd love for you to give it a read. If you've ever wanted to get a human picture of Jesus' most notorious disciple–if you've ever wanted to get inside the head of the man who walked on water, fished for men, denied Jesus three times, and served as a key foundation for Christ's church–then you should definitely give it a read. Not convinced yet? Let me tell you a little more about it!
The Book
Simon, Who Is Called Peter is an extensively researched, heavily footnoted first-person narrative following the life of the Apostle Peter as revealed in the New Testament. It combines the easy flow of narrative with the rigorous research and accountability of an academic work, making it ideal for both lay and academic readers. Dr. Matt Jenson, in his foreword, calls it "an extended meditation, a form of lectio divina in which the text being read is the life of a man in the pages of Scripture." Does that sound like something you want to read? Or do you need more convincing? Well then, here's what some very smart people who actually make a living by being good at this sort of thing had to say about the book!
The Endorsements
"From encountering Jesus with his brother, Andrew, to suffering for Jesus on a Roman cross, the Apostle Peter recounts his life and experiences as a devoted, but sometimes stumbling, follower of the Lord. . . . Mulligan succeeds in putting together an account that is both faithful to the biblical text and engagingly expressed. What a great resource this will be for a class on Peter or for Bible study groups who want to explore Peter's life."
—Clinton E. Arnold, Dean and Professor of New Testament, Talbot School of Theology, Biola University, La Mirada, CA
"Moving between contemporaneous episodes in prison and recollections of Peter's place in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus and the first days of the church, Mulligan gives meaningful shape to Peter's life and offers us a novel take on both Peter and Jesus, yet ever faithful and attentive to the biblical witness. This sounds like Peter and would be an excellent companion to students of the New Testament, both lay and academic."
—Matt Jenson, Associate Professor of Theology, Torrey Honors Institute, Biola University, La Mirada, CA
"Human beings are eternal and one of the greatest of those souls was the Apostle Peter. Peter did not start as he ended: a man willing to be martyred for faith. Mackenzie Mulligan has illuminated the life of this Christian hero and reminded us of his full humanity. Mulligan's classical training and bright mind are obvious as he unlocks his material in a manner that is intellectually stimulating, honest to the source documents, and devotional."
—John Mark N. Reynolds, Provost, Professor of Philosophy, Houston Baptist University, Houston, TX
"Never moving outside Scripture's own footprint and reading as a disciple of Jesus himself, Mulligan offers an imaginative retelling of the 'Peter of the Bible.' Rather than a speculative filling-in-the-blanks, he offers a comprehensive portrait of Peter that is delightfully and skillfully woven together with the fabric of the New Testament. In what Jenson aptly categorizes as a form of lectio divina, Mulligan's narrative is a sustained reflection on the text of Scripture."
—Darian R. Lockett, Associate Professor of Biblical and Theological Studies, Talbot School of Theology, Biola University, La Mirada, CA
The Excerpt
And just in case that's not enough, you can also download Dr. Matt Jenson's excellent foreword, as well as about half of the first chapter,right here. Give it a read, let me know what you think in the comments…and if you like the excerpt, then you're going to love the book!

AMD has announced immediate availability of the AMD FirePro W600 professional graphics card, the company's first professional graphics card to leverage AMD's Graphics Core Next architecture and 28nm production technology, for use in high-resolution, multi-screen display wall environments.
System integrators and display installation builders are rapidly replacing single, low-resolution displays with the latest in HD LED, LCD and plasma technologies that can reach audiences on massive, high-resolution screens grouped together to form a single image or divided into multiple streams of information, AMD noted. The thinner, lighter and increasingly cost-effective nature of these technologies makes multi-screen display walls attractive to a range of companies, including those in the advertising, entertainment, operations, security, training and video-conferencing markets.
The AMD FirePro W600 Professional Graphics card can support up to six high-resolution displays or projectors from a single-slot card and six mini DisplayPort connectors, while the card also equips with 2GB of GDDR5 graphics memory for multimedia performance, the vendor said.

BREAKING: 2 Injured in Shooting at Arapahoe HS
Two students are injured during a shooting at Arapahoe High School, located at the 2200 block of East Dry Creek Road in Centennial.
Arapahoe County Sheriff Grayson Robinson reports the suspected shooter, a student at Arapahoe High School, who is as yet unidentified, acted alone, and is believed to have taken his own life with a self-inflicted gunshot wound. The entire school has been evacuated.
Robinson says the shooter intended to target a specific teacher at the school. The teacher left immediately and is unharmed. A student who was in the area was injured by the suspect. This victim was taken via Littleton Fire Rescue to a hospital and is listed in critical condition. The identity of the victims is not being released at this time.
No law enforcement weapons were discharged during the situation.
Another victim incurred wounds, but is expected to be treated and released today, according to Robinson.
Many schools around Colorado are on lockdown as a result, including all Littleton and Aurora schools.
A staging area has been set up at Shepherd of the Hills Middle School across Dry Creek Rd. from the high school. Parents are urged to gather there to look for their children and await more information. Most parents will have trouble communicating with their sons or daughters because cell phones were most likey left behind at the school, as many had to evacuate quickly.
Arapahoe High School is a part of Littleton Public Schools. The school is just miles away from Columbine High School in Littleton which was the scene of the 1999 school massacre.
We will provide more details as we receive them.

As many readers will be aware I have spent recent months working on a book project. This arose when I was approached by the History Press Ireland to work on a publication which looked at the Irish in the American Civil War, as part of their new 'Ireland in the World' series. I have just received page proofs and the proposed book cover from the publishers, so I am excited to say it is entering it's final stages. The finished book will be available for publication from March 2013, and carries the title 'The Irish in the American Civil War.' It is not a traditional history of the Irish involvement and does not seek to be all encompassing; rather each chapter is made up of one or more personal stories which explore themes under the broad titles 'Beginnings', 'Realities', 'The Wider War' and 'Aftermath.' These are intended to give the reader a broader flavour of the Irish experience, both before, during and after the conflict, through the stories of the men, women and children it affected. The publishers have sent me on a jpeg of the cover as it will appear on the final publication, which I can share on the blog for the first time- I hope you like it!

CORPUS CHRISTI, TX – A gumball bandit in Corpus Christi, TX, has been sentenced to five years in jail. Robert Lee Johnson was apprehended after a local news program aired a video recording of his hauling a double-head bulk vender out of Spohn Memorial Hospital and depositing it in his pickup truck.
Johnson, who was apprehended still in possession of the machine in early May, was sentenced in early June. Local law enforcement is crediting the arrest on a tip from someone who recognized Johnson in the surveillance video on the local news.

There is a new method on how to crack WPA/WPA2, and that's WPS cracking
Backtrack5 R2 already has required tools installed, their names are "wash" and "reaver".
with wash tool you scan all the routers that have WPS enabled.
and with reaver tool you crack the PIN of the WPS enabled router.
It's about brute forcing router's PIN and takes about 10 hours to complete

You have less than S$200, you're still under contract, and you need a phone desperately. What should you do? Get the Xiaomi Redmi. From 21st February, the Android smartphone (known as Hongmi in China), will be available in Singapore.
Priced at S$169, it puts the Moto G's S$319 price tag to shame. Why? Both devices are running 720p displays and don't support 4G connectivity. Yet the Redmi's under S$200 price tag adds a dual-SIM option and the highly praised MIUI. In fact, the Redmi will most probably be the cheapest Android phone in Singapore when it's launched next Friday.
For shame, Motorola, for shame.
The Redmi also is armed with a MediaTek MT6589T quad-core 1.5GHz processor, 1GB RAM, and an 8-megapixel camera.
Where's the Xiaomi Mi3, you ask? Xiaomi Singapore hasn't divulged any information about that just yet, but we have a feeling it will be making its way here real soon.
[Source: Xiaomi Singapore]
Update 19/02/14: During its launch event, Xiaomi confirmed that SingTel, StarHub and M1 will be selling the Redmi. StarHub will be offering the Redmi as a S$0 phone for its data plans. While SingTel and M1 haven't revealed the pricing details, it shouldn't be too far off to assume that it'll be a S$0 phone too
Xiaomi also announced that their flagship model, Xiaomi Mi3, will be available in Singapore from 7th March, priced at S$419. It'll also be sold through its onlie retail store.

These are four of the 51 portraits that came out of the project, recently seen at Fitzroy Gallery in New York.
Fitzroy is before you; it is your Rupert who clasps you to his heart.
Also, Fitzroy's drum and cone, which show the direction of the expected gale.
Are you angry because Fitzroy is occupying the same hotel as ourselves?
Fitzroy offered him the choice, but hinted that he himself preferred a cot.
From the springs the journey was continued along the same meridian to the Fitzroy river.
Fitzroy seated in her, with his hands before his face; the men gloomy and sad.
And the stable orderlies had sworn that Fitzroy started alone.
They hailed him, and directed him to drive to Cumberland Hotel, Fitzroy.
Not far removed from her, within the hall and near where the earl was seated, stood Fitzroy, and by his side Edwin his secretary.

Healthways Puts Focus on Providers
Healthways is broadening its business model as it prepares for the loss of its Cigna contract, which over the course of the 14-year relationship grew to represent about 20% of Healthways' annual revenue.
The giant wellness program and disease management provider just announced a 10-year strategic agreement with Texas Health Resources (THR) to implement physician directed population health management.
Details of the agreement, including specific measures of success, are still being worked out, according to Jon Scholl, chief strategy officer for Arlington, TX-based THR, but will generally include claims analysis for its physician practices, risk modeling, and health coaching.
The non-profit THR system includes 24 acute care and short stay hospitals in the Dallas-Ft. Worth area. It employs 550 physicians and contracts with another 5,000. It generated $3.7 billion in totaling operating revenue in fiscal year 2011, but Scholl says that despite its substantial size, THR considered the idea of developing its own population health program to be a daunting task.
"There are a lot of things that are needed to manage the health of populations, including information systems that intake and analyze claims and risk modeling. Those are things that Healthways brings to us in this partnership that Texas Health Resources would otherwise have to invest behind."

Demi Moore, Rumer Willis, and Ashton Kutcher did not respond to requests for comment via their representatives.
"No sooner had he dropped the 11th-hour witness on our doorstep than he whisked him away," writes Ashton.
From a reading of 'Green Eggs and Ham' to jokes about Ashton Kutcher and pirates, watch the weirdest moments.
"She walks with great confidence to her office," Ashton told the jury.
"George is not a Machiavellian self-interested monster," Ashton said calmly on the last day of rebuttal.
"I am––that is, I––My tent was right there between those two trees," said Ashton.
"I do not agree with you in your religious sentiments, Ashton, as you know," said George.
My friend Ashton was almost gone when I dragged him into our boat; a few minutes more would have finished him.
Ashton was taken by surprise at seeing Mr. Brunton where he least expected to see him.
Mrs. Ashton went quietly up, put her arms round Lucy, and kissed her many times.

STANFORD, Calif.- The University of Oregon lacrosse team (13-4, 8-0 MPSF) advanced to only their second Mountain Pacific Sports Federation Championship match in program history with a 14-11 victory over California (8-8, 4-3 MPSF) on Friday night at Cagan Stadium in Stanford, Calif.
With the win, the Ducks face the Cardinal, who took care of Denver, 12-9 in the later match.
The Golden Bears raced out to a 1-0 lead in the early minutes of the match, but senior Jess Drummond evened the match up following a save by sophomore Caroline Federighi.
Back-to-back free position strikes by sophomore Nikki Puszcz and Je. Drummond put Oregon ahead 3-1, but a free position goal by Cal's Gaby Christman brought the match back to a 3-2 tally with only seven minutes of action gone.
The teams traded goals, but Cal's Amelia Burke tied the match up for the second time to a score of 4-4.
Oregon tried to put some distance between the two squads as they scored three unanswered goals, bringing the match to 7-4.
Alexa Rozelle was able to get one of the goals back at the 10:15 mark, but UO once again had an answer after sophomore Shannon Propst hit Je. Drummond for Oregon's eight goal of the half.
Christman tacked on one more goal for Cal, but Oregon held the 8-6 advantage after 30 minutes of action.
The Ducks came out aggressive at the start of the second half and following a foul by Rozelle, Oregon was able to capitalize and have senior Colleen Taggart find sophomore Hayley Milner for UO's first match of the half, but ninth of the match, granting them a 9-6 lead.
Oregon went on another run, finding the back of the net four straight times, grasping what was thought to be a comfortable 13-7 upper hand with 11:21 left in the match.
The Golden Bears went on a run of their own tallying goals by Christman, Rozelle and Melissa Humphrey, setting the match at 13-10 with 4:10 left and causing the Ducks to take a timeout to talk strategy.
Cal secured the draw control out of the timeout and four Ducks committed fouls out of the gates, but Paige Gasparino was allowed to break through to get unsuccessful shot off. The Golden Bears recovered the ball and went right back at Federighi, but this time Rozelle broke through, bringing her squad within two goals, 13-11.
Je. Drummond earned the draw control on the next possession and after she was fouled by Christman with 1:48 left, senior Kristina Barrett made the pass back to Je. Drummond for what was the match's last goal.
Je. Drummond finished the match with a career-high six goals and one assist for a career and match-high seven points. Puszcz and Milner were responsible for hat tricks while Propst added two for all of Oregon's goals. Barrett contributed two assists in the match.
Despite not scoring a point, senior Jana Drummond recorded six draw controls, collected four groundballs and caused two turnovers.
Federighi (13-3) played all 60 minutes in goal to notch the win behind five saves.
Rozelle led the Golden Bears with four goals.
Megan McGinnis (8-8) took the loss with two saves.
Oregon and Stanford face each other on Sunday at 1 p.m. at Cagan Stadium in Stanford, Calif. for the MPSF Championship. In last year's championship match, the Cardinal got the best of the Ducks, 12-10.
Fans can head to www.GoDucks.com for live stats of the match between the Ducks and the Cardinal.
The winner of the MPSF Tournament hosts the NCAA play-in match on May 5 at 1 p.m.

Hi Ian.
My name is Karla Ormsby and I have replaced Darrell Black as the Documentation Manager for Cisco Unified Communications Manager. I understand that you were working with him to correct or improve some information in one of the documents. I can help you with this issue, although I don't know where you left off with him; so if you wouldn't mind, could you please send me the information and I will see to it that the documentation gets updated as you wish.
Feel free to contact me via email or telephone and we will get these issues resolved. We apologize for the delay in communication. It has taken awhile to get things rolling again since Darrell's departure.
Best regards,

Hi Ian,
My name is Darrell Black. I am the Documentation Manager for CUCM. Hilde Weisert informed me that you have some feedback you wish to share for the Cisco Unified Communications Manager (CallManager) Dial Plan Deployment Guide.
I'd be happy to review your feedback and determine how we can improve the Cisco documentation. You can send your feedback directly to me at [email protected].
Thanks for your help, Ian.
It took the best part of a year since initially raising this with another team in November 2011, but finally the GB number plan documentation was updated a few days ago.
The new version resides at:
This now more accurately describes the current situation in GB.
There are still some minor issues concerning the fact that various GB non-geographic numbers tagged as "national rate" and "local rate" are not actually charged in that manner. These are now "special rate", "business rate" or some such other designation but that's for another day.

Rush Limbaugh: Conservatives Don't Suppress The Black Vote, Restrict Women's Choice, Or Lie
Displaying a remarkable lack of self-awareness, Rush Limbaugh tried to convince a caller that "it's a pretty safe bet" that liberals always lie and conservatives never do -- an assertion he backed up with a series of his own lies on everything from abortion to minority vote suppression and the IRS.
On the June 18 edition of his radio show, Limbaugh addressed a caller who expressed interest in hearing both sides -- liberal and conservative -- of any given debate before coming to his own conclusion on the issue. Limbaugh chastised the caller for informing himself in this manner, telling him, "The liberals lie. I do not form my opinions on what both sides say. I form my opinions on what I know to be right." Limbaugh concluded that it's a "pretty safe bet" that liberals are always lying, while conservatives don't lie. In his attempts to prove his theory, Limbaugh turned to some misinformation of his own on the subject of abortion and the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).
On the issue of reproductive choice, Limbaugh claimed that "nobody is taking away a women's right to choose .... it's never happened," which is deceptive, if not an outright lie. Limbaugh pointed to the U.S. Constitution as evidence, and he is correct that the Constitution protects a woman's right to obtain an abortion, and thus no Republican is able to restrict this right without meeting a high bar. But Limbaugh conveniently ignored the vast and varied efforts [1] of the Republican pro-life movement to restrict the ability of women and girls to obtain an abortion -- laws which have almost certainly resulted in women being denied access to abortion entirely. The New York Times wrote [2] on June 17 that the GOP push to "limit abortion in the near future is very real":
[B]eyond Washington, advocates on both sides of the issue say the chance to limit abortion in the near future is very real. Republican-dominated state legislatures in South Carolina and Wisconsin are weighing bans similar to the one the House will vote on, which would impose the 22-week limit based on the scientifically disputed theory that fetuses at that stage of development can feel pain.
The measures stand a reasonable chance of passing in both states as well as in Texas, where last week Gov. Rick Perry added abortion restrictions to the Legislature's agenda. Conservatives are pushing for a vote by next week.
Already this year, Arkansas and North Dakota have passed even more restrictive bans in attempts to directly challenge Supreme Court precedent.
Limbaugh continued his defense of conservative integrity by seguing into another common right-wing myth: that no one at the IRS has been fired for applying improper scrutiny of conservative groups. Limbaugh said, "Obama hasn't fired anybody for what they did in any of these scandals."
In fact, Treasury Secretary Jack Lew fired [3] Steven Miller. Lois Lerner was asked [4] to resign and was placed on administrative leave when she refused. Her deputy has also been placed on administrative leave.
And Limbaugh's claim that conservatives never lie didn't end with a distortion of administrative scandals and abortion myths. He continued with the same caller, next opining on the subject of GOP efforts to suppress minority voters, saying, "there's no evidence" that Republicans are attemped to suppress the black vote:
Limbaugh's claim that the GOP has not and is not able to suppress the votes of African-Americans is a lie. The Republican Party has tried -- and succeeded -- at suppressing the vote of minorities as recently as 2012. In Florida, black and Hispanic voters were disproportionately represented [5] amongst the tens of thousands of individuals whose votes were suppressed due to long lines stemming from Republican legislation that reduced the number of early voting days from 14 to eight during the 2012 elections. Commentators from across [6] the political spectrum [7] have written widely on Republican efforts in numerous GOP-controlled state governments to suppress minority voters -- with voter ID laws, administrative changes to election procedure and other similar tactics.
Of course, none of this should come as a surprise to Rush's listeners. His propensity [8] for pushing [9] conservative [10] misinformation [11] is well-documented [12].

A new folk-pop duo has just entered the Salt Lake music scene, and one member, Libbie Linton, has a master's degree in biological engineering.
But, more important, when it comes to music, Linton is a singer-songwriter who plays guitar as well as ukulele, banjo, mandolin, keyboards and bass with Salt Lake City-raised Spencer Harrison.
Together, they are Mideau (pronounced "Mid-oh") and the first time most Utah audiences saw them together was when Linton and Harrison opened for prominent Utah County singer-songwriter Mindy Gledhill at Provo's Velour on Nov. 30. (As a solo artist, Linton opened for the Doobie Brothers at a 2010 Red Butte Garden concert.)
The two began a Kickstarter campaign to raise $10,000 to make their first album and raised $11,891 from 337 backers.
The new album, produced by Nate Pyfer, Linton's friend from Logan High School, will be released soon.
Harrison and Linton answered questions about goals, inspirations and what they would name Princess Kate's child:
How are you inspired?
We draw inspirations from everything. Science and discovery, literature and current events. All these things seem to show up in our work. At a macro level, we draw most inspiration from personal experiences, the people around us, nostalgia, and the progression from young and innocent to older and more complex.
What's the goal for your forthcoming album?
We would like this album to be a shock to people in a "why haven't I heard about this already?" kind of way. We've worked for it to be a strong, unique blend of music, and we certainly hope for it to reach ears far and wide.
What are your most memorable experiences in music?
Linton • In my backyard growing up, we had cut down a huge pine tree and laid sections of the stump upright. I remember as a 5-year-old leaping from one stump to the next while singing "Tonight You Belong to Me." I still sing that song at shows and think about my youth every time. That is especially strong when I have had the chance to play at large shows like at Red Butte Garden. My 5-year-old self would think that singing that song to thousands of people is awesome and terrifying.
Harrison • On a few choice occasions, I have been the music to sing people to calm and then sleep. It's not so much being the soundtrack to sleep I love, but the moments where my voice has been what allows someone to disconnect from whatever troubles them. At least enough to relax.
If you could list one or two things on a tour rider that must be backstage at a show, what would they be?
If we were being good and thinking ahead, some blend of lemon-citrus tea with licorice root, and if not, Cinnamon Toast Crunch.
What is the most musical thing in the world?
Justin Timberlake.
If you could perform one song for President Barack Obama, what would it be?
We'd sing whatever he wanted us to sing. Without a request, we'd play one of the songs off the new record so we could have a possible chance to brag to people that President Obama tapped his foot to a song we wrote.
What are your plans for 2013?
We want to keep pushing ourselves and working to create new songs and sounds in 2013. Releasing the record, and then supporting it with touring and content, is a big activity for 2013.
What would you name Princess Kate Middleton's child, and why?
Orange. It's unique, unrhymable, and apparently famous Brits have a thing for naming children after lunchbox fruit. Either that or Anne.
So, the world didn't end on Dec. 22. What are you most thankful for?
Family and friends who support and criticize. Who love enough to tear down and push to new heights. The experience of learning something fresh, seeing a new sight, joking about the way things are and hoping for the way things might be. And other forms of art that express the human experience, and help us cope with times when things are unstable, and conversely that become the backdrop to joyful memories. We'll also be thankful that the world didn't end before we got a chance to have people hear the new album.

Snow forecast for this weekend in the Las Vegas Valley could lead to slick roads and tricky travel, according to weather officials.
The National Weather Service issued a winter weather advisory for Clark, Nye and Lincoln counties from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. Saturday.
Forecasters said precipitation will develop late Saturday morning and increase in coverage through the day. They said snow levels will be at about 3,000 feet and then fall to near 2,500 feet through the day.
Meteorologists said up to two inches of snow is possible mainly on the western side of the Valley, including Summerlin and neighborhoods west of the 215 Beltway. They said the greatest accumulations will happen in grassy areas.
Area roads will become slick through the day, forecasters said. They said Highway 95 and the western part of the 215 Beltway will be impacted the most. They said Charleston Boulevard, Sahara Avenue and roads in the west end of Summerlin will also become slick.
In addition to the possibility of snow, the forecast calls for frigid temperatures for at least the next seven days.
Watch FOX5 News at 5 p.m., 6 p. m., 10 p.m. and 11 p.m. and FOX5 News This Morning for the latest information about this developing forecast.

No dough, no show: Why you shouldn't take a gig just for exposure
Published March 16, 2013
When trained musicians play solely for exposure - except in the case of charitable and/or non-profit events - it devalues the work. Moreover, it means fewer paying gigs for musicians. Ultimately, it helps create a "talent drain" - sending top tier artists to other communities where the pay and prospects are better.

Tracking Rudy Gobert's path to the NBA has been movie worthy. After an accident at his former job at the local steel mill, Rudy had Jon Favreau (he really could be French!) keep his grades up in exchange for Rudy helping Jonny out with the ladies. Gobert almost gave up on his dream for basketball, but Charles S. Dutton gave a heartfelt speech on BEING REAL! Utah fans tried carrying Gobert off the court chanting "Rudy! Rudy!" after that win against the Spurs last Tuesday, but it was a big hazard to the overhead lights.
Derrick Favors' ankle turned into a kankle over the weekend, but luckily X-rays were negative and he's day-to-day. No reason for the lowly Jazz to throw him out there gimpy. Monsieur Elbow time! Filling in for Favors on Friday night, Rudy had one of the best games of his young career for 9/11/4/1/5 shooting 2-2 FG and 5-6 FT. Followed it up with a start last night next to Enes Kanter for 7/9/0/2/3 in 31 minutes. Playing with the big boys! A wingspan that would make a pterodactyl jealous, Gobert should murder blocks for you if you're able to stream him through the couple starts he's likely to get this week. No timetable for Favors, but big men + kankles = John Goodman. I mean, not good for a speedy return.
Boy did the Fantasy God of Injuries not get enough human sacrifices over the weekend! This might turn out to be the most depressing NBA recap I've ever written. Stay positive JB! Stay positive JB! Thanks inner monologue… Any other advice to help me get through today's news? Well, remember when in Interstellar it looked like there was no hope due to another Dust Bowl, then he just finds the newly incarnated NASA – – Wait, how does any of that make sense, they didn't know he was alive yet he was their best hope!? And then there's that giant plot hole with the planet with the – – it just makes no – – uhughuhguhguhguhgug – – – – F, now my inner monologue is injured… Here's how the weekend of death went down in NBA action:Please, blog, may I have some more?

Jenny Q Chai Plays Miller Hall, Manhattan School of Music, 12/3
Recently compared to pianists Pierre-Laurent Aimard and David Greilsammer by New York Times reviewers Anthony Tommasini and Vivien Schweitzer in reviews of her appearances at New York's Carnegie Hall and Le Poisson Rouge, pianist Jenny Q Chai (www.JennyChai.com) presents her lecture-recital "Dissecting Stroppa" – An Analysis of "Innige Cavatina" from Miniature Estrose by Marco Stroppa -- on Monday Dec. 3rd, 7:30 PM, at Miller Hall, Manhattan School of Music, 120 Claremont Avenue, in New York City. Tel: 212 749 2802. Free Admission.
In this groundbreaking performance mixing academics with theater, Chai, wearing a doctor's lab coat, will "dissect Stroppa" and in particular, his recent work, "Innige Cavatina" from the collection Miniature Estrose. Chai met the composer Marco Stroppa in Darmstadt, Germany five years ago, and she was immediately enthralled by his music. The two kept in touch musically, and Stroppa introduced Chai to Pierre-Laurent Aimard, with whom she has studied for two years. This lecture-recital is taking place as part of Jenny Q Chai's D.M.A. thesis and dissertation on Stroppa.
For her debut at Zankel Hall, pianist Jenny Q Chai was praised by the New York Times' Anthony Tommasini for her "resourceful technique and sensitivity" as well as playing that is "admirable for its refinement and directness." Of her performance at the Keys to the Future Festival, Zachary Woolfe wrote, also in the New York Times: "Jenny Q Chai opened the concert playing two of Ligeti's Études with rich tone and rhythmic clarity; especially strong was her "Cordes à vide." Chai is an active pianist specializing in contemporary music, and in addition to Carnegie Hall, Jenny has played at New York venues such as Roulette, Symphony Space, the Stone and recently made her Chicago debut playing Schumann's Kreisleriana at the Dame Myra Hess Series. Recipient of the Yvar Mikhashoff Trust's 2011 Pianist/Composer Commissioning Project, first prize winner of the Keys to the Future Contemporary Solo Piano Festival, and recipient of the DAAD Arts and Performance award in 2010, Chai has premiered, most notably, Life Sketches and Five Pieces (for Jenny Q Chai) by Nils Vigeland, Intimate Rejection by Ashley Fu-Tsun Wang, Messiaen's Canteyodjaya (China premiere) and Marco Stroppa's Innige Cavatina (US premiere). Chai has also premiered "Marriage (Mile 58) Section F" from The Road by Frederick Rzewski in Ghent, Belgium, where she was given the Logos Award for the best performance of 2008. Chai played the first contemporary solo piano concert in China this June at the National Performing Arts Center in Beijing; and she recently had the privilege of introducing the concept of prepared piano to a Chinese audience, with the world premiere of Mallet Dance by John Slover, in Shanghai Concert Hall. She has recently lectured at NYU, Manhattan School of Music, and in Shanghai at Fu Dan University and at FaceArt Music InterNations.

I like to use the Essex cotton/linen blend by Robert Kaufman as the off-set blocks because they give some added texture and contrast to the quilt. (You can find it here, and here.) Not to mention when the quilt is washed, the linen shrinks and crinkles up so nicely, giving the quilt a nice vintage feel. I have a simple pattern for this i-spy quilt in my etsy shop.
I had the perfect backing in my stash – a Moda print by Jan Figuroa from a few years ago with more items to spy! The quilting is a simple meander loop by Melissa of Sew Shabby Quilting.

LONG BEACH - Dogs may soon make the jump from the sidewalk to outdoor restaurant patios in Long Beach.
On Tuesday, the City Council will consider changes to city code that would give restaurant operators the option to allow canine companions at outdoor patios where food is served.
Councilman Robert Garcia introduced legislation in April asking Department of Health and Human Services staff to draft new regulations permitting dogs to join their owners who are dining outside.
The request follows similar policies adopted by Marin County, Santa Barbara County, Monterey County and, in December, Los Angeles County.
Restaurants won't be forced to accommodate pet dog owners under the proposed rules, which only apply to outdoor areas and will require a separate outside entrance to a dining patio.
"All we're doing is creating an additional option for business owners," Garcia said.
Garcia's initial measure was co-sponsored by Councilwoman Suja Lowenthal and Councilman Gary DeLong.
The policy was developed with input from several business and community groups. It would be implemented immediately, if passed.
Expanded citations collection
The council is also expected on Tuesday to renew its contract with its parking citations collections vendor - with enhancements that include reporting those with delinquent tickets to credit bureaus.
A report released in March by City Auditor Laura Doud found $17.6 million in outstanding parking fines during the past three years.
The audit blamed outdated software used in the collections process that required labor-heavy manual checks and laws that make it difficult to pursue debtors, compelling less aggressive collections.
The amended contract with Xerox/ACS State and Local Solutions Inc. would increase telephone and mail contact with those who have delinquent tickets, report them to credit bureaus and seize their state tax refunds through the state's established tax intercept program.
Long Beach is also taking steps to acquire and implement a new citation collection software system by October 2013.

The sheer level of delusion in that blog post is frankly alarming. But yeah, F2P launches the 15th.
For example:
We also felt it was very important to thank our subscribers for being members of The Old Republic community. To reward all of you, we will grant Complimentary Cartel Coins to every player who has been a subscriber prior to the launch of the Free-To-Play option. The actual size of the grant will depend on how many months you were a paying subscriber prior to our announcement and after our announcement. There will also be special grants to those who purchased the Star Wars: The Old Republic Collector's Edition and Digital Deluxe Edition. Want to know how many Complimentary Cartel Coins you have earned? Click here to find out! We are literally granting millions of dollars worth of Complimentary Cartel Coins as part of this program. But you'll only receive a grant of Complimentary Cartel Coins if you're an active subscriber when the Free-to-Play option goes live!
So, what's your saying, is that you did not feel it was very important to thank all your subscribers for being members of the TOR community, and you most certainly aren't rewarding "all" aof us, nor are you granting coins to every prior subscriber.
I hate to say it, but I don't think the F2P option is going to succeed. There's just way too much greed in that cartel store. I'll at least finish my Jedi Knight story, but I honestly don't know if I'll do more than that. This whole transition has left such a bad taste in my mouth.

Friday, Day 1: The nightmare hunt for Thome's autograph
Nightmare is the only word that I can used to describe my experience on Friday afternoon and evening. I arrived at the National Sports Center complex around 2:30 PM. Jim Thome was having an autograph signing starting at 5:45 PM. I figured that I would be able to get there early enough to get in line, read a little of my book, and eventually get an autograph from the future Hall-of-Famer. I was mistaken on the ease of getting the autograph.
|The line that I faced on Friday afternoon
|The line behind me was even longer than in front of me

Day 1 Autographs: Jim Thome, Ben Revere, and Corey Koskie
Saturday, Day 2: Blogger Connections
I stayed as far away from the Schwan Center as possible on Saturday. I was not going to relive my nightmare from the day before.
|Giant Get Well Card for Harmon Killebrew
Day 2 was all about making connections with other Twins bloggers. This was the first real time that I got to put faces with some of the people I have followed as I continue to make my mark as a Twins blogger. The one person that I was able to find pretty easy was Seth Stohs (SethSpeaks.net). And I say easy because he is the only other blogger that has my phone number. The next blogger that I met in the company of Seth was Jack Steal (Fanatic Jack Talks Twins). Andrew Bryz-Gornia (Off the Mark) was working at both Day 1 and Day 2 of TwinsFest. I was able to successfully pick him out of the throngs of other Twins employees and introduce myself. While waiting in an autograph line I was approached by Topper Anton (Curve for a Strike). There were also female personalities in the Twins blogging community that I met such as Betsey (For the Love of the Game) and you can follow Karlee Kanz on Twitter.
One of the funniest moments of the day might have been when Senator Al Franken was being interviewed by 1500 ESPN radio and he accidentally said, "I hate the Twins." He meant to say that he hated the Yankees and the Mets but the Twins slipped out.
Throughout all of this I was able to get a few autographs from some of the young stars that I have featured on my top prospect list (Minnesota Twins Top Prospects 1-10). I also snagged some pictures with current Twins player (Denard Span) and one huge prospect (Kyle Gibson).
The Twins blogging gang listed above and others went out to eat to wind down after a long day at TwinsFest. At this gathering I was able to meet John Bonnes (Twins Geek) and Nick Nelson (Nick's Twins Blog) of the TwinsCentric Crew. Overall, it was a very festive evening.
Day 2 Autographs: Kyle Gibson, Joe Benson, Aaron Hicks
Day 2 Photos: Denard Span, Kyle Gibson, TC
Sunday, Day 3: Filling in the missing pieces
The final day of TwinsFest 2011 was one filled of lots of first for myself. I talked to Twins General Manager Bill Smith for the first time, I took part in my first "Tweet and Greet" experience, and I got a picture with a member of the Hall-of-Fame.
|Bill Smith and myself at TwinsFest
I waited in line to get a picture with Twins legend Rod Carew. He seemed more outgoing this time than the previous times that I spoke to him. He was friendly and gladly shook my hand. I never got to see him play in a game but I know about the importance of the history to the game of baseball.
|In the presence of Rod Carew
The special experience of the day was a Twitter event put on by the Twins organization. This was a really exciting event to take part in and I will devote an entire post to this event later this week. It was the first time the Twins have tried something like this and it was a fun interactive experience with Twins players Michael Cuddyer, Denard Span, and Drew Butera. There are lots of funny stories to tell from this event.
Day 3 Photos: Rod Carew, Bill Smith, Glen Perkins, Drew Butera
Overall it was a fun weekend, full of lots of different Twins activities. It was a nice break from a winter and a good reminder that spring is right around the corner.
