Walkthrough: Defining Classes
This walkthrough demonstrates how to define classes, which you can then use to create objects. It also shows you how to add properties and methods to the new class, and demonstrates how to initialize an object.
The dialog boxes and menu commands you see might differ from those described in Help depending on your active settings or edition. To change your settings, choose Import and Export Settings on the Tools menu. For more information, see Visual Studio Settings.
To define a class
Create a project by clicking New Project on the File menu. The New Project dialog box appears.
Select Windows Application from the list of Visual Basic project templates to display the new project.
Add a new class to the project by clicking Add Class on the Project menu. The Add New Item dialog box appears.
Select the Class template.
Name the new class UserNameInfo.vb, and then click Add to display the code for the new class.
You can use the Visual Basic Code Editor to add a class to your startup form by typing the Class keyword followed by the name of the new class. The Code Editor provides a corresponding End Class statement for you.
Define a private field for the class by placing the following code between the Class and End Class statements:
Declaring the field as Private means it can be used only within the class. You can make fields accessible from outside a class by using access modifiers such as Public that provide greater access. For more information, see Access Levels in Visual Basic.
Define a property for the class by adding the following code:
Define a method for the class by adding the following code:
Define a parameterized constructor for the new class by adding a procedure named Sub New:
Public Sub New(ByVal UserName As String) ' Set the property value. Me.UserName = UserName End Sub
The Sub New constructor is called automatically when an object based on this class is created. This constructor sets the value of the field that holds the user name.
To create a button to test the class
Change the startup form to design mode by right-clicking its name in Solution Explorer, and then clicking View Designer. The startup form for Windows Application projects is named Form1.vb by default. The main form will then appear.
Add a button to the main form and double-click it to display the code for the Button1_Click event handler. Add the following code to call the test procedure:
' Create an instance of the class. Dim user As New UserNameInfo("Moore, Bobby") ' Capitalize the value of the property. user.Capitalize() ' Display the value of the property. MsgBox("The original UserName is: " & user.UserName) ' Change the value of the property. user.UserName = "Worden, Joe" ' Redisplay the value of the property. MsgBox("The new UserName is: " & user.UserName)
To run your application
Run your application by pressing F5. Click the button on the form to call the test procedure. It displays a message stating that the original UserName is "MOORE, BOBBY", because the procedure called the object's Capitalize method.
Click OK to dismiss the message box. The Button1 Click procedure changes the value of the UserName property, and displays a message stating that the new value of UserName is "Worden, Joe".

"I got a text from David," Davis said. "He said (WBC manager) Joe Torre asked about me. I'm glad they thought of me." When asked if Wright put in a good word for him, Davis said: "He said he did … but I didn't make the team." Davis said he would be intrigued to play in the World Baseball Classic. "I'd get some at-bats, but not as many (if he had a regular spring training," Davis said. "The games would be more intense. That would be a good way to jump start the season."

Wow…. I didn't expect that at all. This is the most flattest and blah ending to a lakorn ever in the history of my lakorn watching career! It didn't end stupid or weird or bizarre. It was just… FLAT and unsatisfied!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's like…I can't even complain because the ending is somewhat a happy ending, but it felt like .. like I was on a stranded island and I was very thirsty, and then I saw a bottle of water , but I just couldn't drink that water! So all I can do is just sit there and look at the water feeling more thirsty and unsatisfied.
First of all, why did Noy kill Nut?? during the whole lakorn, Noy was a voice of reason and goodness. She kept trying to stop Prayong from harming people but she herself kills Nutt?? Plus they weren't really clear as to why Luang Kajohn didn't meet Noy as promised? Supposedly, he decided to marry Chalin after all? And then… they never mention exactly how Prayong died besides her mentioning to Noy that.."some things are too horrible to mention?" Gee.. I wonder if she killed herself ?? And top of that, they didn't show just how exactly Pratt died? I know that he was locked in that secret room, but how did he get in there?? Gosh.. so many unanswered questions!
My version of how it should end?? They should burn Prayong's painting and while her painting is ablaze, chedta turns into tun jao khun and finally admits to his faults and wrong doings and then he drops dead! End . lol
I guess the only message I got from this lakorn is.. "if you love someone, let them go! If they don't come back, then they weren't yours to keep in the first place…"
So if you still care to know what happened.. here goes…

"Get my topi, boy, and order the gari quickly," the memsahib called to her bearer.
Morbid sort of fancy I call it; but I've got to do what the memsahib tells me.
Here Cazi Moto came up in great perturbation to announce that two of the memsahib's porters were missing.
I don't think I shall ever outlive the memsahib or Tsin-ling.
Clearly he could not deliver a letter to a memsahib who was not.
But no memsahib came, and, next day, he went on to Simla cross-questioning the bearer every hour.
The nephew does things very shabbily, and I think the memsahib must help him.
When the dear old eyes opened at last, they looked around in wonder until they rested upon the memsahib's face.
It was the strange memsahib, the khansammah observed to himself.
Then a glad light shone from them and an eager voice whispered: "Oh, memsahib, is this heaven?"

Detailed Description:
Rationale: Clinical ARDS occurs primarily as the result of inflammatory injury to the alveoli producing diffuse alveolar damage.
Objective: To evaluate the effects of an enteral diet enriched with ginger extract on inflammatory factors, respiratory profile and outcome of patients with ARDS.
Methods: In this single center, randomized, controlled double blind study, 32 patients with ARDS were randomized to receive a high protein enteral diet enriched with ginger extract or placebo.
Measurements and Main Results: Serum levels of IL-1, IL-6, TNF-α and LTB-4, oxygenation, measured as PaO2/FiO2, static compliance measured on days 0, 5 and 10.
Patients fed enteral diet enriched with ginger extract had significantly lower serum levels of IL-1, IL-6, TNF-α and LTB-4 on days 5 and 10 compared to control group (P<0.05). Significant improvement in oxygenation was observed on day 5 (P=0.02) and 10 (P=0.003) in ginger extract group compared to control group. Static compliance was also increased significantly on day 5 (P=0.01) in ginger extract group compared to control group. A significant difference was found in duration of mechanical ventilation (P0.02) and length of ICU stay (P=0.04) in favor of ginger extract group. We did not find any difference in barotraumas, organ failure and mortality between the study groups.
Conclusions: An enteral diet supplemented with ginger extract in ARDS patients may be beneficial for gas exchange and could decrease duration of mechanical ventilation and length of stay in ICU.

The 20 Most Anticipated Electronic Music Festivals of 2013...
Via Beatport:
Sure it's just February, but with festival-announcement season in full swing, it's high time we took a look at the most promising dance-music gatherings of the year ahead. Whether it's been going for 20 years, like Barcelona's venerable Sónar Festival, or if it's a relative newcomer to the scene, like Playa Del Carmen's BPM Fest, if it rocks, it's got our attention—and hopefully yours, too. Read on for a killer list of must-attend parties this year.

In September 2013, I interviewed at the XOXO conference and festival the four lead editors of Boing Boing, this fine publication, a descendant of zine culture that is one of the most popular blogs on the Internet, on the occasion of its 25th continuous year in existence. For the day after Christmas, it seems appropriate to celebrate generosity and gift culture with Mark Frauenfelder, David Pescovitz, Cory Doctorow, and Xeni Jardin. (Photo by Jenni Leder.)

Confusing Reviews
Thanks everybody.
I got the F770EXR, well it's in the post somewhere between Amazon and here anyway.
I actually have the Nikon P7100 and find that the 200mm end is just that bit short as is the 200mm on my DSLR even after allowing for the 1.5x 300mm equiv so I figured that the 500mm end of the Fuji's lens should do it.
I also looked at the Nikon P510 with it's 1000mm lens and decided I really did not want to be wandering around with that even though it's quite a small bridge camera.
Fortunately there are quite a few fence posts, rock outcrops and the odd bit of stone wall I can prop the camera on to steady it, but nothing you can actually hide behind while you edge up close and the birds always seem to have some eagle eyed sentry out there to sound the alarm. It's nearly impossible to get near them at low tide as there are very wide expanses of mud flats and they seem to stick around the river mouth.
Thanks again.

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — Leonard Williams was unimpressed by his production last year, no matter how many people told him he had a good rookie season for the New York Jets.
The big defensive lineman showed flashes of what made him the No. 6 overall pick in the draft and the player many regarded as the best all-around talent available. Williams finished with a modest three sacks and a combined 63 tackles while starting 15 games.
Not bad. But not eye-popping, either. Well, the man nicknamed "Big Cat" is hungry for lots more.
"Being at USC and having the production numbers that I had every year, I kind of hold myself to those high standards every year...

Is anyone aware of a medication for high blood pressure that does not have a side effect of vivid dreams or nightmares? My quality of sleep is very poor since being diagnosed with high blood pressure 3 years ago. I have tried many, but with no success. Would also like suggestions on alternative treatments for high blood pressure. I am a healthy eater and do moderate exercises. I am 5'3 and weigh 140 lbs, so I'm not really overweight. Someone suggested cider vinegar and honey oncea day to reduce my pressure naturally. Has anyone tried this and had success?READ MORE
is ther a blood pressure medication that does not cause vivid dreams and nightmares?
This question has not been answered by one of our experts yet.
I am having consistent nightmares and taking Norvasc for High Blood Pressure. I am also taking 112mg of effexor daily. Can either of these drugs be causing these nightmares. Should I ask for a change of medication. I have taken taking this combination of drugs for 2 and a half years.

You knocked on the door of your friend's house for what seemed like millionth time.
"Ludwig! Open up! I know you can hear me!" You shouted at the door to your German friend's house. He was home, you knew this because, first of all, you called him about an hour to let him know you would be over in an hour because you were bored. And second of all, you could hear some sort of music playing faintly from inside the house. You sighed and rolled your eyes impatiently as you stooped down and lifted up the mat, revealing the emergency key that he kept under there.
You picked it up and slid it into the lock and turned it, than pushed the door open. The place looked empty, but you heard the music more clearly now. So you continued down the hallway following the sound of the music, which you now judged to be classical piano, until you came to Ludwig's door.
"Ludwig?" You asked as you slowly opened the door a bit. Ludwig's phone was connected to the speaker, which was playing the classical music, and Ludwig himself was dancing a slow waltz, by himself, in the center of the room. You opened the door completely, and Ludwig still hadn't noticed you. His eyes were closed and he had a small smile plastered on his face as he danced around the room. You slammed the door to his room shut, and this brought him out of his trance as he jumped in the air in surprise and turned to you. His faced turned an incredibly bright shade of red.
"__-________!" He shouted. He ran over to the speaker and practically swatted his phone onto the floor, trying to disconnect it. "Um- H-Has an hour passed already I hadn't realized-" he began babbling, which was very unlike him, before he shut himself up, his face remaining a bright shade of crimson.
"I didn't realize you liked to dance," you said, trying not to crack a smile. Ultimately you failed, and the German's face turned from a bright crimson to a much deeper red.
"Vell I do," he said in a tone that meant that he didn't want to be contradicted. He picked up his phone and placed it on the table next to his speaker. You cleared your throat and managed to adopt a more straight face.
"Well okay than. Sure." You said. Your friend crossed his arms and his face adopted an expression of I-do-not-believe-a-word-you're-saying. But his face returned to it's normal peach color instead of one of Antonio's tomatoes. He sighed and rolled his eyes, turning away from you, which you took as a sign of him saying that he believed you after all. He placed his phone back on the speaker and unpaused the music, and classical piano began to
play through the speakers once more. He turned back to you, a small blush on his face.
"Um, _________, vould you, like, to dance?" He asked you, not being able to meet your eyes. You blushed.
"I-I don't know how," you said, looking down at the floor. It was true, but that wasn't the only reason you didn't want to dance with your life-long best friend. Truth was, you'd had a crush on him ever since you were little. And you were afraid of slipping up or embarrassing yourself in front of him.
"I can teach you," he offered, holding out his hand. Your blush widened, but you took his hand. He showed you where you put your hands, and the dance step, and you two started dancing. It was slow at first, and you were both blushing like idiots. But pretty soon the dance began feeling more smooth, more natural. And you two began getting closer to each other, until before either of you knew it you were practically against Ludwig's broad chest.
But suddenly and without warning Ludwig abruptly stopped dancing, and you were forced to stop. He didn't step back though, and neither did you, so you two were simply standing in the center of his room, just looking at each other.
"Lud?" You said quietly, your face heating up. Ludwig's face was hovering just above yours, his bright blue eyes looking into your (e/c) eyes. It was silent other than the classical music playing quietly in the background, but other than that everything else seemed to cease to exist as you and Ludwig stood there, only a few centimeters apart. After what felt like an eternity he seemed to wake up from a trance, he shook his head a little.
"Um, sorry," he muttered, and began dancing again. But this time it felt a little different and you wondered what was up with your crush. After a few minutes of slow-dancing Ludwig stopped again.
"__-______-" he stammered, than cut himself off. "Nothing." He mumbled, he started to try to move with the music again, but this time you weren't budging.
"Ludwig, seriously, are you okay?" You asked him, looking up at him.
"I-I," he stammered, looking at you, a blush plastered on his cheeks.
"Are you sick? Maybe you should l-" you began to say, but were cut off by a pair of lips as Ludwig closed the small distance between you two. You stood there for a brief second, to shocked to do anything, when suddenly your brain was able to process the fact that your long-time crush was kissing you. You kissed back and you two stood there for what felt like forever, and maybe you could have stood there forever if it hadn't been for oxygen.
"Ich liebe dich," Ludwig stammered out when you two finally parted. You surprised him by hugging him fiercely around the waist.
"Ich liebe dich auch," you whispered as Ludwig hugged you back. The classical music continued to play in the background, and you might not have been able to see it, but Ludwig was smiling.

Feds: Hospital hacker's 'massive' DDoS averted
Arrest foils 'Devil's Day' scheme
Posted in Security, 1st July 2009 21:32 GMT
The leader of a malicious hacker collective who used his job as a security guard to breach sensitive Texas hospital computers has been arrested just days before his group planned a "massive DDoS" attack for the July 4 Independence Day holiday.
Jesse William McGraw, 25, of Arlington, Texas, was taken into custody late Friday evening after posting screenshots showing he had complete control of computers that administered air-conditioning systems at The Carrell Clinic in Dallas, federal prosecutors said. McGraw also brazenly posted videos showing him installing malware on hospital computers that made them part of a botnet he operated, said a network security expert, whose sleuthing uncovered the breach.
As a contract security guard at the hospital, McGraw had no authorized access to any of its computers. But that didn't stop the miscreant, who went by the handle GhostExodus, from taping himself as he walked down the halls of the hospital with a blue security guard uniform poking out through a gray hoody, as he bragged about gaining control over sensitive computers.
"It's a unique mindset among these hackers," said Wesley McGrew, a 29-year-old network PhD network security researcher at Mississippi State University. "It's all about respect and fame and the respect of their equally weird peers."
According to McGrew and federal prosecutors in Dallas, McGraw was the leader of a hacker gang known as the Electronik Tribulation Army. He had recently posted videos admonishing fellow hackers to carry out a "massive DDoS," or distributed denial of service, attack on July 4, a date he called "Devil's Day". While the target and other details of the attack are unknown, the investigators are taking the threat seriously because McGraw, prior to his arrest, had tendered his resignation as a security guard job effective July 3.
According to court documents, hospital officials had experienced problems with their HVAC, or heating, ventilation and air-conditioning, units and were perplexed why none of the system alarms had gone off as programmed. Had they seen screenshots posted here by someone calling themselves GhostExodus, they would have known why. They images showed the HVAC control window for the hospital's surgery unit. A test alarm setting was turned to "inactive."
"You almost can't help it ya know," GhostExodus writes. "It must be done!"
GhostExodus outed
In some respects, McGraw's hacking regimen bordered on the paranoid. He kept a webcam over the outside door to his one-bedroom apartment so he'd know in advance when someone was calling on him. But otherwise, court documents portray someone who was sloppy in covering his tracks. The picture on a fake FBI credential he showed in one video matched the photo on his driver's license. Another video in which GhostExodus showed off Wireshark and other hacking tools revealed an IRC session that revealed an IP address issued by swbell.net.
His need for attention led him to volunteer a wealth of information about himself. A profile here made in March lists his age as 24 and shows the face of a white male that is identical to the one belonging to the individual McGrew says he observed in the hospital videos. (Those clips have since been taken down).
Combining the IP address with a Craigslist posting and GhostExodus's YouTube videos, McGrew soon deduced the miscreant probably was a night security guard at Carrell Clinic.
Besides breaching the security of the hospital, McGraw also posted evidence that he accessed a computer used by the aviation unit of the Dallas Police Department. Police officials confirmed that a machine assigned to that unit was known "to have been compromised by an unauthorized individual."
McGrew - who despite the name similarity has no relation to McGraw - first learned of the HVAC breach after someone from Electronik Tribulation Army sent him an unsolicited instant message on June 18 bragging of the exploit. The message pointed to screenshots that suggested it wasn't a hoax. With a specialty in SCADA, or supervisory control and data acquisition, McGrew quickly took notice. Three days later he tipped off the Texas Attorney General's office and the FBI.
"I can't just see that and let that go," he said. "I spent the entire weekend trying to find out as much about GhostExodus as possible."
Of particular concern was the sinking realization that someone had unauthorized access to the system that controls the air-conditioning systems that cool operating rooms and other critical areas of the Texas hospital, where temperatures regularly hit the triple digits.
"Elements of critical infrastructure, like HMIs for control systems in hospitals have such low security that even someone like this can get in," he said. "It really shows how dangerous even a low-skilled attacker can be." ®

Immersed in Kakadu splendour
The Sun-Herald
Page Tools
Breathtaking . . . Kakadu wetlands.
Photo: NT Tourism

Destination: Northern Territory Australia
Theme: National Parks & Bushwalking
Camping with crocodiles? It doesn't get any better, Clara Iaccarino writes.
On the blackboard at Kakadu National Park's rangers' headquarters is a list of frequently asked questions. Given the pulsing heat of the Northern Territory, particularly at the height of the dry season, it's no wonder one of those questions is: where can you swim in Kakadu? The answer: Jabiru swimming pool.
Not prepared to recommend watering holes or plunge pools for fear of being liable if the infamous Kakadu crocs are lurking, the rangers take the most extreme safety precautions. But thankfully, as we swelter in the 30 degree sunshine, we discover a few waterfalls where even the boldest crocodile is unlikely to surface.
Lying on my back in the freshwater pool at the base of Maguk or Barramundi Gorge I'm immersed in Kakadu splendour. We're ignoring a styrofoam buoy flecked with multi-coloured markings that highlight the teeth marks of freshwater crocodiles. But our guide Kerry is happily freestyling his way to the waterfall where he spreads out on a rocky outcrop and basks in the sun. It's all about safety in numbers.
On tour in Kakadu for three days with Odyssey Tours & Safaris, we're hardly roughing it. We can stand in our tents, they have wooden floors, two single beds and a table complete with herbal body wash, shampoo and conditioner and a framed verse of Banjo Paterson. Our camp hosts cook up roast dinners and marinated barramundi served in a candlelit dining tent with a dash of wine to complete the blissful image. And while the toilet block is shared, the showers are hot.
There's a lot of ground to cover in the national park, so while I'm not usually a fan of organised tours, it's a relief to have an itinerary of hot spots and an enthusiastic guide.
The first day of the tour is spent exploring Aboriginal rock art at Ubirr. As we drive into the park, the landscape is stark and scrubby with termite mounds dotted on either side of the road. But once we climb to the top of the rock at the Ubirr site, the view out to Kakadu's wetland area is breathtaking, not to mention the ancient rock paintings along the way.
Traditional owners still live in the park, hunting native animals. But the only contact with the Bininj (Aboriginal people) is via the Warradjan Cultural Centre, which glosses over colonisation, focusing on hunting methods and arts and crafts. Perhaps the most resonant words are those of spokespeople from the local clans, including Elizabeth Pettersson of the Murumburr clan: "My kids are growing up. They may work for Parks or at the Cultural Centre. They may marry Bininj or Balanda [non-indigenous]. We got to be the same."
The emphasis on "looking after the country" permeates the centre. The park is being administered by the Bininj and Balanda in partnership and there are plans for adjustments to the park's program to introduce a more effective cross-cultural tourism exchange.
A sunset cruise on Yellow Water is one of the best opportunities to immerse yourself in Kakadu's natural glory. The driver spies a crocodile. We've been fooled a number of times by suspicious-looking "logodiles", but the real deal is spine-tingling.
We spend the final evening camping at Gunlom Falls, site of the famous swimsuit scene in Crocodile Dundee. A lone traveller plunges from the rushes into the pool and, ignoring the warning signs ("Swim at your own risk"), I follow, the cool, fresh water tingling my body. Later that night our fellow campers go to the pool and, shining their torches into the rushes are greeted by half-a-dozen pairs of tiny eyes: freshwater croc babies. They watch as the mother slides into the water behind her bubs, free now to reclaim her territory. But not to worry. These freshwater variety are the only crocs in this pool and they don't, we are assured, eat people.
The writer was a guest of the Northern Territory Tourist Commission.

Art For Haiti
In the wake of Tuesday's catastrophic earthquake which struck Haiti, several artists — Halifax's James White among them — have decided to direct 100% of the proceeds from sales of their work for the next week towards Haiti relief.
Social media and modern technology has proved quite responsive to the crisis: at the time of writing, over $ 3million has been raised for the Red Cross through a text message campaign, with a host of other donation efforts sprouting up, including efforts from Wycleaf Jean on Twitter which also direct donors towards text message donations.
This disaster has managed to touch a nerve around the world, and the more we can do to help the people of Haiti, the better. If you or anyone else you know is doing something similar in response to the crisis, please let me know and I'll add a link to this post.
Below is a list of visual artists who are currently forwarding all proceeds from their online store towards Haiti. Please not that Applied Arts is not affiliated with any of the artists below, and that it is entirely the individual's responsibility to choose an organization and handle the funds. We're just trying to spread the word, and there's rarely been a better cause for which to purchase some visual and graphic art.
James White (donating 100% of sales from his online store)
Chuck Anderson (donating 100% of sales from his online store)
Sargent House Records (donating all proceeds from downloaded music)
Nathalie Bertin (donating 100% of the proceeds from any commission (with deposit) in January + 50% of sales from her online store)
Matt of Orizon Studio (donating 100% of the proceeds from his ActiveDen portfolio of Flash Components for the next week)
Martha Marshall (donating 100% of the proceeds from any piece preceded by art4haiti in her online store)
Emek (special Haitian benefit poster coming later this week; will update with the details)

I have a degree in psychology, which I have found to be useless. And I am planning on going back to school and getting a Masters in Creative Writing, because I enjoy writing and would love to learn more techniques to make myself a better writer. I am worried, however, that this degree will not open up many doors in terms of the job market (just as my psychology degree has failed to do). Any thoughts? Thank you..
Hi. A degree in creative writing will open fewer doors for you than psychology. I'd reassess your choice, unless you really love writing.
Reading some of the comments on this blog, Id need to say I agree with the majority. Only a and an very interesting post to see on this nice website. Rarely write some feedback but now i couldnt i could not resist

Men's Basketball Hosts Portland State
Related Links
Southern Utah's men's basketball team plays the third game in a four-game homestand Thursday when the Thunderbirds host Portland State. The game is scheduled to tip-off at 7:05 p.m. in the Centrum.
The Thunderbirds (1-22/0-14 Big Sky) are coming off a 75-65 home loss to Idaho State. SUU is still looking for its first Big Sky win of the season and the Thunderbirds almost got it the last time they met the Vikings, but Marcus Hall hit a 3-pointer with 30 seconds to go to give PSU a 66-64 lead and the Viks held on for a 67-64 win in Portland on Jan. 25.
Portland State (11-12/6-8 Big Sky) began a four-game winning streak with the victory over Southern Utah as the Vikings went on to post home wins over Eastern Washington, Northern Colorado and North Dakota, but since the win over UND they have lost four straight, most recently a 72-65 home loss to Sacramento State last Saturday night.
The Game: Portland State (11-12/6-8) at Southern Utah (1-22/0-14) Thursday at 7:05 p.m. (MST) in the Centrum Arena (5,300), Cedar City, Utah.
Media Availability: Players and coaches are made available for interviews on Tuesdays at 2:30 p.m., with occasional adjustments because of travel and class schedules.
Radio: All SUU men's basketball games are broadcast live by Power 91 KSUU (91.1 FM) as well as on the internet at www.power91radio.com. Art Challis is in his 40th season as the Thunderbirds' basketball play-by-play voice. Dr. Challis is joined on home and selected road broadcasts by former SUU standout Dean O'Driscoll.
On The Internet: All of Southern Utah's home games and Big Sky road games will be available on Watch Big Sky, at www.bigskytv.org. Audio of SUU home and road games is available at the Thunderbirds' website at www.suutbirds.com or at www.power91radio.com.
Live Stats: Live stats of all of SUU's home games and selected road contests will be available at www.suutbirds.com.
Video Highlights: Video highlights of the Thunderbirds' home games will be available to accredited media outlets via SUU's FTP site. For information on obtaining those highlights contact SUU Director of Athletic Media Relations Neil Gardner.
The Series: PSU holds a 3-1 edge in the series between the two schools on the hardwood, including the 67-64 win in Portland last month. Although the two teams were both members of the Western Football Conference in the late 1980s and early 1990s and met on the gridiron on a yearly basis, this will be just the fifth meeting between the two schools in men's basketball. The two teams split a pair of games last season, with the Thunderbirds taking a 76-63 win in Cedar City and the Vikings answering that with a 90-69 win in Portland later in the season. The first meeting between SUU and PSU came early in the 1969-70 season when the Vikings took a 107-93 win over the then-NAIA Thunderbirds in Portland.
The Coaches:
SUU Head Coach Nick Robinson (Stanford '05), a 2013 finalist for the Joe B. Hall Award which honors the top first-year coach in the nation, has a record of 12-42 in his second season at SUU and his second season overall as a head coach. In his first year at SUU Coach Robinson led the Thunderbirds to a sixth-place finish in the Big Sky Conference, earning a BSC tournament berth in the school's first season in the league. SUU posted an 11-20 overall record, including an 8-12 mark in Big Sky games last year, when two Thunderbirds, seniors Jackson Stevenett and Damon Heuir, earned all-conference honors. Coach Robinson came to Southern Utah from LSU, where he spent three seasons on the staff. Prior to his time at LSU, Robinson spent a season at William Jewell College and two on the staff at his alma mater, Stanford. During his time as an assistant coach, Robinson helped guide his teams to a combined record of 87-47 and four post-season appearances, including two NCAA, one NIT and one NAIA Division I national tournaments. Coach Robinson is 1-2 vs. the Vikings.
Robinson is assisted by Todd Okeson (Nevada '05), Chad Bell (Nevada '06), and Drew Allen (Southern Utah '10). Yahosh Bonner (Northern Colorado '10) serves as Director of Basketball Operations. Okeson and Allen were with the Thunderbirds last season while Bell and Bonner are in their first seasons with the program.
Portland State is coached by Tyler Geving (Central Washington, 1996), who is 63-82 in his fifth season at the helm of the Viking program and his fifth overall as a head coach. Coach Geving is 2-1 vs. SUU.
Captains: This year's captains are seniors Jayson Cheesman and Jaren Jeffery and junior Chris Nsenki.
Pre-Conference Schedule: The Thunderbirds' non-conference schedule was one of the toughest in the nation, as SUU's strength of schedule ranked 46th in Division I and second in the Big Sky after their nine non-conference games. The Thunderbirds' 2013-14 SOS has been as high as 34th. The non-conference schedule was heavy with road contests as the team scheduled just three official games in the Centrum before the conference opener. The Thunderbirds went 1-2, with a win over Arizona Christian and losses to UC Riverside and UNLV, at home in the pre-season and 0-6 on the road. The road slate included games at No. 23 San Diego State, California, Utah State, San Diego, Portland and Cal State Northridge.
SUU by the Numbers: In Big Sky games the Thunderbirds are averaging 57 points per game on 42.3 percent shooting (.323 threes) while knocking down 67.8 percent of their free throws. SUU has allowed conference opponents an average of 70.7 points on .474 shooting (.394 threes) and has been out-rebounded by an average of 33.8-26.9 caroms per game. Sophomore wing A.J. Hess leads the team in scoring at 9.6 ppg while senior forward Jaren Jeffery adds 8.7 and freshman guard Trey Kennedy is third at 8.8 ppg. Sophomore forward Casey Oliverson leads the team in rebounding with 4.7 caroms per Big Sky game while Jeffery is second on the squad with 4.2 boards and Hess averages 3.5. Kennedy leads the team with 2.6 assists per game while freshman guard John Marshall is second on the squad in assists with 1.9 per game and leads the team with 15 steals, an average of 1.1 per game. Junior Cal Hanks leads the team with 12 blocks and senior Jayson Cheesman has nine.
Scouting Portland State:
The Vikings – who have been starting four guards with three under 6-1 – are 1-7 on the road this season, 1-5 in conference play.
Junior guard Tim Douglas (5-10, 160) leads the Vikings in scoring (13.1 ppg) and assists (3.7) while junior guard DaShaun Wiggins (6-2, 185) – who spent a season at Eastern Utah – comes off the bench to average 12.8 ppg. PSU's leading rebounder and third-leading scorer, Aaron Moore (F, 6-8, 210, Sr) has appeared in and started nine games but is under a team suspension. Moore was averaging 11.8 points and 5.8 rebounds per game. The leading active rebounder is senior forward Kyle Richardson (6-7, 235) with 5.5 rpg and a team-best 16 blocked shots as well. The Vikings have four players who have each attempted over 50 3-pointers and all are connecting at .333 or better: Douglas is 35-of-105 (.333) from long-distance, Wiggins is 26-of-74 (.351), Marcus Hall has knocked down 37-of-91 threes (.407) and Gary Winston (G, 6-0, 190, Jr) has been deadly from beyond the arc, hitting 30-of-61 attempts, a Big Sky-best 49.2 percent.
As a team the Vikings have averaged 72 points on 46.4 percent shooting (.370 threes), while allowing opponents an average of 71.4 points on .473 shooting (.385 threes). PSU has converted 71.3 percent of its free throw opportunities and has been out-rebounded by an average of 32.9-to-30.7 rebounds per game.
Young T-Birds: Southern Utah is one of the youngest teams in America, with just 10 combined seasons of collegiate experience heading into the 2013-14 campaign. SUU has five true freshmen (not including walk-ons) on the roster and three of the five have played in every game. Freshman point guard Trey Kennedy has started all but two games while guard John Marshall has started 13 games and wing Juwan Major has started five. Wing Race Parsons, who has appeared in all but one game, got his first career start against Idaho State while wing McKay Anderson has also had one start – alongside Kennedy, Major and Marshall – at Cal State Northridge. In addition to the freshmen, forward Casey Oliverson, a sophomore in his first season with the Thunderbirds, has started 13 games.
Thunderbird Notes:
• Race Parsons scored 12 points vs. Idaho State in his first collegiate start. He hit four 3-pointers as the Thunderbirds tied their season-high with nine long distance connections.
• Jaren Jeffery came off the bench to score 12 points and lead the team with even rebounds vs. Idaho State. He has posted double-figure scoring nights in three straight games and has led or co-led the team in rebounding in all three.
• Walk-on freshman Taylor Jenson hadn't scored until knocking down a 3-pointer against Weber State. He then played a career-high 10 minutes against Idaho State, connecting on 2-of-4 3-point attempts for six points. He also had a rebound and an assist vs. the Bengals.
• SUU out-rebounded Idaho State 35-33 and had 12 assists to the Bengals seven. It was just the fourth time this season the T-Birds have had more rebounds than their opponent.

Top performing equity hedge funds have dwarfed returns of the market in the past quarter.
As the best performing hedge fund last year, the NAOS Emerging Companies Long Short Equities fund has held its rank, returning 23.7 per cent in the March quarter, Australian Fund Monitors reports.
This compares to 1.95 per cent for the S&P/ASX 200 Index and a 1.2 per cent fall in its benchmark, the S&P/ASX Small Ordinaries Accumulation index, over the same period.
NAOS managing director Sebastian Evans said the group was speaking with several ratings agencies in its bid to gain retail distribution.
"We're a five star-rated fund according to Morningstar [ratings and research agency]" Mr Evans said. Financial planners had contacted NAOS independently and invested based on their own due diligence, he added.
"We're getting more high net worth individuals with experience in the equity markets who are willing to invest a larger sum of money because they're looking for more diversification away from resource companies."
NAOS has been bolstered by industrials and biotech stocks over the last five years, and Mr Evans said there were still opportunities in these sectors.
The star performers for NAOS in the past quarter included telecommunications service provider
The fund also has a large holding in former non-bank lender
Second-placed Evergreen Capital Partners' fund added 11.7 per cent during the quarter despite recording losses among its uranium exposures in March.
The fund exited positions in Paladin Resources, Extract Resources and UraniumSA in line with its stop-loss policy.
"There could be a major buying opportunity brewing in the uranium sector, but we need to reassess the situation without capital at risk so we can make an objective decision," Evergreen Capital chief investment officer Tim Hannon said.
Mathews Capital's Velocity Fund, in third place, notched up 9.9 per cent in the first quarter. The fund's chief investment officer, Ben Henri, said events in Japan had focused attention on coal, its commodity of choice.
"There are not many other places to go if you don't use nuclear [power] and you want to get large-scale electricity generation capacity installed," Mr Henri said. "[This] can only be beneficial for thermal coal and liquified natural gas, which we have exposure to through
The Velocity Fund has 42 per cent of its investment in coal stocks and 29 per cent in gold.
Australian Fund Monitors chief executive Chris Gosselin said evaluating hedge funds based on a headline return masked funds' volatility. Investors should look at risk-adjusted returns and a range of factors like correlation to the market's worst months, the frequency of losing months and drawdown – the peak-to-trough difference between returns over a specific period, Mr Gosselin said.
"NAOS, for instance, looks attractive, but had a drawdown in 2008-09 of over 60 per cent. Funds such as Herschel, Bennelong and Optimal not only had quite small drawdowns in 2008 but provided investors with a positive return for the year."
Many hedge funds are trying to expand into the retail market after a focus on their traditional market of wholesale and high net worth investors hurt them during the credit crisis.
Attracting institutional support from superannuation funds in Australia continues to be fraught, however, with local super funds often preferring larger, more established hedge funds offshore.

Today we are featuring Flyover Zine Distro, a newly created distro that "archives and publishes anti-authoritarian, queer, and POC zines that are of/about the U.S. South." We go behind the scenes about the formation of Flyover, upcoming projects, and more!
ZFH: Tell us about Flyover Distro's mission. What gaps in the broader narrative is it seeking to fill and how do you think it will reframe discussions about PoCs and queer people in the South?
FZD: We actually found each other as collaborators after having a conversation about what it means to live in the south as any combination of queer, radical, or POC. There's this idea that if you're here & queer, you gotta get out. Our lives have been shadowed by a pull from the mythical north, the "progressive" cities, where queer lives are somehow more legitimate- and Flyover works to resist that notion. We are also interested in the idea of the "romantic south" and how class/race/gender/sexuality work to complicate this romantic image with something more authentic for those who are marginalized. We hope that this archive helps facilitate a conversation we've been living our entire lives, and we hope to contribute towards the collective liberation for others who feel similarly.
ZFH: What new projects are you working on this year?
FZD: We've done a lot of work on building our archive, so now we are interested in publishing new original zines! We hope our presence at Zine Fest will encourage other radical / POC / queer southerners to create zines about their experience and put them on the internet (preferably with us but whatevs).
ZFH: What will be on your table at this year's Zine Fest?
FZD: Our free, online archive is organized into three categories- art, history, and theory- and we will have original copies of every zine in our digital library to peruse at the table during Zine Fest. We are also releasing Lena's new zine, Light Skinned Tears, with a few other zines for purchase from Flyover Press. We even have a few surprises that we're working on right now and really excited to pass out- you'll have to stop by our table and see!
ZFH: What is something that you're looking forward to about the 2014 Zine Fest Houston?
FZD: We're definitely looking forward to building a presence for radical zinesters, and finding that community among those we meet. Zine Fest is also the first event where Flyover Distro has a physical presence! We are really excited to show up, put our archive out, and see what resonates with everyone.
ZFH: What are your favorite zines/mini-comics etc.?
Cecelia: The first zine I read in our archive is a popular one, Memoirs of a Queer Hapa #2 by Jackie Wang, and it gave me a really personal understanding of how zines can be a tool for radical self-education. Being a queer hapa (part Asian) myself, that zine was the first time I found the language for a systematic understanding of race and sexuality that applied to my nuanced lived experience. Zines can do that- illuminate your position in the world in a really humanizing and transformational way.
Lena: It's hard to choose just one! For theory zines, Anarchist Reimaginings: Communities of Resistance because it is so simply done and focuses on borders and prisons, two really important issues in the south. I also love The Radical Cheerleading Handbook, a uniquely femme form of protest that a lot of radical queers and women use to be visible at protests and rallies, which can be disproportionately dominated by masculine or male voices.
ZFH: What other creative ventures do you have besides making zines?
Cecelia: We joke that one of us brings art and the other bring activism to the collab. I was introduced to the zine scene less than a year ago, coming from an arts perspective. My work as a playwright deals with crafting interesting and honest narratives surrounding queer experience. My work as a theatre teacher deals with helping students understand ways in which they may be systematically oppressed and subverting these structures through art. So Flyover felt like a great way to continue this work on a larger scale.
Lena: I've been hanging around the activist crowd for a few years, and sort of make art on the side. I really value the activist focus on the big picture and strategy, but I feel like art is crucial for remaining human when shit gets hard, remembering to be playful and feeling/processing the emotional fallout from events that people might classify as "activist". I'm a writer, and a giant book nerd, so my main gig is with the radical library in town, Solidarity Houston, formerly Sedition Books, as well as some other coalitions.
ZFH: Why does self-publishing appeal to you?
FZD: Zines are written by real people who are not focused on a self-validating endgame that is created by traditional publishing. And because zines have no value to mainstream publishing, the content is not edited in the same way. People who self-publish know that they are accountable not to a huge corporate entity but to their community, so zines become then this form where the exchange value or "currency" is trust-based, where providing honest education is the goal.
Thanks y'all! We are very excited for you to make your debut at ZFH 2014!!

Scythe Bags?? Edit
Is that information real?? I mean, I haven't seen anything about "scythe bags" or something like that, we don't even know if he really uses the bag at his back to carry the scythe. I'm really not trusting that information--Kind-Hearted-One 16:32, June 29, 2010 (UTC)
Name Edit
Isn't "Doc" just an honorific? Like "Doctor" Hogback, "Doctor" Vegapunk, etc. Shouldn't we move this to just "Q"? Yatanogarasu 23:35, October 14, 2010 (UTC)
are GRIM-REAPER and SHINGAMI the same? i dont think so!Roranoa zoro 23:59, February 2, 2011 (UTC)
Well, if it was an honorific like Hogback's or Vegapunk, I think it would be "Doctor", not "Doc", since Doc really is the romanization of his name. And Roronoa zoro...yes, they are the same. GMTails 00:01, February 3, 2011 (UTC)
Sick doctor? Edit
He might be only known doctor to be sick in One Piece, is that trivia worthy?A Wikia Helper 22:14, February 7, 2011 (UTC)

But would not a joint-stock company answer the purpose better, and carry more weight?
And that makes me think: Why not start a joint-stock company to build them?
But I would call attention to the following points: There is no compulsion on any joint-stock company to publish a balance sheet.
What share had he in what may be a joint-stock company for the production of these plays?
In his office was executed the deed which established the joint-stock company of the Universal Bank.
It was a joint-stock company, and managed by trustees or directors.
But are the advantages of the individual undertaker over the joint-stock company really so great?
In 1609 this charter was revised and enlarged, granting the privileges to a joint-stock company.
The trade of insurance may be successfully carried on by a joint-stock company, 317, 318.
A joint-stock company that undertook to remove Ben-Nevis, is beginning to find unexpected obstructions.

Integrating faith with the demands of work is a challenge many Christians face. Two men with a lot of insight on faith, business ethics, integrity, and leadership recently sat down to discuss this challenge: Al Erisman of Seattle Pacific University and Bill Pollard, retired CEO of ServiceMaster and professor emeritus at Wheaton College. They recorded a video conversation about the God-honoring business model, thoughts on Peter Drucker, and the struggles of godly leaders in corporate management. [Read more…]

text: Quinn measured in at 6'6" and a lean 280 pounds. Quinn's unofficial time in the 40-yard dash was 5.03. Other unofficial numbers include 30 reps of 225 pounds on the bench, 33.5 inch arms, 9'3" broad jump, 30.5" vertical jump, 4.46-4.55 range on the short shuttle, and 7.45 in the 3-cone drill. Quinn played three years at BC before leaving the team for personal reasons and transferring to C.W. Post. Playing defensive tackle at over 300 pounds for most of his college career At the combine, Wharton, who set national powerlifting records as a teen, showed his strength, completing 30 reps in the 225 pound bench press, more than all but one linebacker and three linemen in a group of over 80 professional football hopefuls. WHARTON Wharton showed off his speed with the fastest 40 yard dash time at the combine, finishing in 4.47. He also proved one of the most agile, turning in a 4.06 in the shuttle, the third best time, behind a pair of cornerbacks. He put his explosiveness on display with a 40' vertical leap, tied for third in the entire field, while his 10-5 broad jump was the second best at the combine. Dustin has been the hardest working athlete I have ever had the pleasure of coaching," Sports Performance Coach Carl Johnson said. "His attitude and work ethic has been infectious and inspired everyone else to become stronger and more consistent in their training. I wasn't surprised on his combine stats, because those are the numbers he's been putting up for the last three years. He has demonstrated that strength is the key ingredient to being a more explosive faster and powerful athlete." Wharton has also provided the on-field credentials during his career on the Hilltop. The 2013 Preseason Patriot League Defensive Player of the Year is also a two-time Patriot League First Team selection, while moving into third place in career tackles (280) during his senior season. His versatility on the field has allowed the Hoyas' coaches to move the 6-0, 216 pound athlete between outside linebacker, safety and defensive end. "I've never coached a more versatile, more explosive athlete than Dustin Wharton," said Georgetown Head Football Coach Rob Sgarlata, who served as the Hoyas' defensive coordinator through Wharton's career. "Goal line he played safety, first and second down he'd play linebacker and third down he would rush the passer. He has an unparalleled work ethic and just as a person, the work he's done in this community has been tremendous." But his impressive combine performance may have created enough of a stir to help Wharton get to the next level, wherever teams eventually want to play move him on the field. "To be honest I am not too sure what position teams want me to play at the next level," Wharton said. "I've heard safety, nickel, linebacker, etc., so I just feel I have to be prepared for anything

Conexant Systems and Maxim Integrated Products jointly developed a reference design for PC-based video surveillance products with digital video recording (DVR) capabilities. The new reference design is based on Conexant's CX25853 multi-port video decoders and CX258521 media bridge. It also includes Maxim's MG3500 H.264 video compression solution, which increases recording capacity on DVRs and supports multiple channels of low-latency, full D1 video. The reference design supports up to 16 channels of real-time capture and compression. The reference design uses Lattice Semiconductor's ECP2 FPGAs to perform key video format conversions.
The Conexant CX25853 is an eight-channel video decoder that enables multiple analog video streams to be captured and displayed simultaneously. Key features include the capability to acquire low-level video signals, horizontal and vertical scaling, and hue, brightness, saturation, and contrast controls. In addition, the high-density architecture lowers per-channel costs by approximately 35 percent, and substantially reduces board space requirements compared to using two separate four-channel devices.
The CX25821 media bridge enables multi-channel, bi-directional uncompressed digital audio and video transfers to a host computer for preview, processing, or compression through the PCI Express (PCIe) interface. The CX25821 also acts as a bridge for compressed H.264 data from the MG3500 to the host via PCIe.
The Maxim MG3500 video codec supports de-interlacing and full D1 resolution, high profile, H.264 video encoding for the highest quality recording. It also simultaneously decodes video streams and combines multiple video images for viewing on high-definition displays. The MG3500′s extremely low power consumption helps guarantee system reliability.

Ask The Pros
Ask the Pros: Live! Featuring... Elliot Stokes
Today we meet designer Elliot Stokes, currently Designer for Every Day with Rachel Ray. He graduated from the University of Georgia in 2010, studying design and making a lot of posters for WUOG, the college radio station. He also made pencil drawings and greeting cards in his free time.
As a senior, he entered our annual Student Design Competition and won first place (check out his award-winning entry here), granting him a magazine internship in New York. After his summer internship at Inc. magazine, he took a position at Fast Company doing marketing design, occasionally helping with editorial pages.
Later Elliot applied for a position at Rachael Ray after thinking he belonged in editorial. He's now primarily a designer at the magazine, but frequently he makes small drawings and does title lettering as well. Sometimes he'll also do freelance jobs if they come up, for clients such as the NYTimes, Fast Company, and Nylon Guys.
To help prepare for Wednesday's event, we asked Elliot what was something he knows now about career/job-hunting that he wish he knew in the beginning. Read on for his advice ...
Freelancing is very okay.
Want to know more? Join us this Wednesday 10/24 to hear from all of our amazing panelists. Sign up now to reserve your spot! (Tickets will be sold at the door at a higher price only if space remains.)
