Japan's industrial output unexpectedly fell 1.2 per cent in July, government data showed on Friday, in a sign the global slowdown is taking its toll on the country's factory activity.
The fall compared with a median market forecast of a 1.7 per cent increase, and followed a 0.4 per cent rise in June, data from the trade ministry showed.
Manufacturers surveyed by the ministry expect output to rise 0.1 per cent in August and decrease 3.3 per cent in September, the data showed.
The ministry stuck to its assessment that industrial output is flat as a trend.
Separately, Japanese manufacturing activity contracted in August to the lowest level in 16 months, a survey showed, as the weakening global economy continued to weigh on exports and industrial output.
The Markit/JMMA Japan Manufacturing Purchasing Managers Index (PMI) fell to a seasonally adjusted 47.7 in August from 47.9 in July.
The index remained below the 50 threshold that separates contraction from expansion for the third straight month and was the lowest reading since April 2011, one month after a record earthquake, tsunami and ensuing nuclear disaster struck Japan's northeast coast.
"The data provide further evidence to suggest that growth in the world's third largest economy is faltering in the face of weakening global demand conditions," said Alex Hamilton, an economist at Markit.
"Overall new business declined at a solid rate, while the index measuring trends in factory output fell further over the month."
The index for new export orders, a leading indicator of Japanese exports, rose to 45.5 from 43.2 in the previous month but remained below the 50 threshold for the fifth consecutive month.
The output component of the PMI index fell to 46.9 from July's 47.3, also the lowest reading since April last year.

Criminal Law
Criminal Law Questions? Ask a Criminal Lawyer.
Yes. In drug court, they will test for all drugs, from heroin to marijuana to alcohol. You must be both alcohol and chemical/drug free for the entire period. They do not just limit testing to the drug you were charged with.
At the beginning, everything will be very intensive, both urine samples as well as classes and court. However, over the course of a year, or less, presuming you are clean, everything will slow down. But I would certainly expect at least once a week for testing.
Does this make sense?
I truly aim to please you as a customer, but please keep in mind that I do not know what you already know or don't know, or with what you need help, unless you tell me. Please consider that I am answering the question or question that is posed in your posting based upon my reading of your post and sometimes misunderstandings can occur. If I did not answer the question you thought you were asking, please respond with the specific question you wanted answered.

YOU MUST COMPLETE THE RATING FOR THE EXPERT TO RECEIVE ANY CREDIT, if not the site keeps your money on deposit.
Also remember, sometimes the law does not support what we want it to support, but that is not the fault of the person answering the question, so please be courteous.
Since I know that the original charge was in Oct 2011 and revoked in June 2012 - then new court hearing in July 2012 which now has been switched to drug court July 2013 because he failed a test. I can find all this online. All that county's records are accessible. But I don't know what the exact original charges were. Can I find that online or do I have to go into the court to find out what he was actually charged with?
NOW - case in drug court which means every Friday. So, today it was set to go in on Monday for evaluation or assessment or something like that. And for court again on Friday. So what would the assessment/evaluation mean?
well, he went to his assessment - and guess he felt pretty safe till court on Friday. They raided his house and he is now in jail. So, - - - is it safe to assume they will keep him in jail this time?? he had guns, knives, paraphanalia and I am sure drugs too. and alcohol that my granddaughter tried to say was hers so the cops called me and asked if she got it from my house and I told him that we don't drink.
so I know this is going to be second guessing the judge - especially since they seem to be trying to clear out California prisons, but doesn't this mean that they are going to put him in jail for at least 1 1/2 years? the original arrest goes back to oct 2011.

THEY were portrayed as bizarre delusional "incompetents" who happened to be out for a drive in the country.
But a jury yesterday found two men guilty of plotting to kidnap international pop star Joss Stone, stab her to death and then dismember her body all because she was both rich with close to royal power couple Prince William and wife Kate.
Kevin Liverpool, 35, and 32-year-old Junior Bradshaw were said to have had a deep hatred for the soul singer and song writer as well as other international stars including Eminem, Beyonce, Dizzee Rascal, Craig David, Chris Brown and girl band Girls Aloud.
But it was the 25-year-old Stone they were plotting to stab, behead and then rob her Devon country house when they set off from their Manchester home armed with a samurai sword, hammers, three knives, a section of house pipe, balaclavas, metal spikes and black tape and plastic bin bags and gloves.
Liverpool was sentenced to life in jail, with a minimum 10 years and eight months for the murder plot with Bradshaw yet to be sentenced. A jury yesterday took just four hours after a three week trial to find them guilty.
Stone said yesterday she was relieved with the decision and that the men were no longer in a position to harm anyone.
Judge Francis Gilbert QC told the court told Liverpool he was going to rob and kill Stone, dump her body in river then flee overseas.
The court had heard the pair was initially questioned by police enroute to kill Stone after being involved in a minor car accident with a freeway guard railing and a digger.
Such was the damage to the car, police thought it undrivable and left the scene expecting the car to be towed. But the pair continued on during that early June 2011 morning only to then become lost and forced to ask a postman for directions, even showing him a picture of Stone to ask whether he had seen her.
They again became lost and drove around the streets near her home in their smashed Fiat Punto arousing the suspicion of many locals who then called police. As driver Bradshaw was not licensed he was arrested on the spot prompting a search of the car and the discovery of the tools a court heard were for the plot.
The court later heard the pair had Google maps with Stone's likely address area which they also identified by studying a video documentary she made for MTV.
They also had several damning notes which linked their plot to her association with the royal family and in particular her friendship with William and Kate for which the pair had "express disapproval".
"The Queen – she devil. But she likes Joss Stone. Invited to Will's wedding by Queen. Where's the sense in that?"
Other notes found in the flat the pair shared described Stone as a princess and noted "Jocelyn – try to get info. Rob and kill."
Prosecutor Simon Morgan said the pair had refused to comment but what was in their possession spoke for itself.
"The items in their possession, the trips to the area, the fact that the intended victim was at home, the notes and maps all point to a determined effort on the part of the defendants to carry out the plan they had hatched some time before."
After the verdicts Stone said: "I'd like to thank everyone for all their support and kind wishes. I am relieved the trial is now over and that these men are no longer in a position to cause harm to anyone."
Outside court, her mother Wendy Joseph, who attended the trial each day, echoed her daughter's sentiments.
"Joss would like to thank everybody for their support and all of their good wishes. Joss and myself and indeed our whole family are relieved the trial is now over and these men are no longer in a position to cause harm to anyone."

Erik Marcus wants to hear you sing about Balls.
I'm all about having things made easier for me, saving money, and not having to lug heavy groceries home on the subway. Erik Marcus seems to be of like mind (save for the subway part; he's now out in Tahoe). The author of Meat Market: Animals, Ethics, and Money and the voice behind the Vegan.com podcasts has scrutinized Amazon.com's myriad offerings and pulled all the vegan and vegan-related products into the Vegan.com Grocery.
Because you buy in multiples or bulk, the prices are pretty awesome—just make sure you have somewhere to store all that extra cereal—and you get free shipping if you spend $25 or more. Plus, a portion of your purchases help keep the podcasts going, which is a worthy cause since Marcus gives great AR news, calls attention to important programs like Vegan Outreach's Adopt a College project, and broadcasts interviews with funny peeps like Dan Piraro.
To shop through the Grocery, click on the banner at the top of the Vegan.com homepage, then search through categories like Appliances/Kitchenware, Books, Nut Butters and Jams, and Produce. When you click on a section, a few highlighted items with photos will appear on the left, and a list of subsections will appear on the right.
One of the star attractions under Sweets & Healthy Snacks is Betty Lou's Almond Butter Balls, which sell for $26.13 for a container of 40 (instead of $43.60). Marcus has been singing the praises of Almond Butter Balls for a while now, even inviting listeners to come up with an ABB theme song—the crappier the better, apparently (contact Marcus here with your lyrical brilliance, or lack thereof). This near obsession aside, the Grocery's selection is pretty comprehensive, and they're adding new items all the time. That said, if you do end up ordering some ABB, let me know how they are! I'm allergic to almonds. :(

Six Flags Fiesta Texas Tells Customers--Give Us The Finger!
Six Flags Fiesta Texas, as well as the Six Flags theme park in Arlington, are encouraging its best customers to give them the finger.
In a move to speed entrance times and to make a park visit more enjoyable, Sydne Purvis of Six Flags Fiesta Texas says season pass holders will no longer be asked to bring a photo i.d. to the park, they will simply ask for a finger instead.
"You will take your right index finger, place it on the scan, and then you will be given a card, a season pass card, with a bar code on it," Purvis said.
"The bar code will be married to a numeric value that is assigned to your finger scan, and we will know it's you."
She says the entire process will take 'about ten seconds.'
Now that the Six Flags theme parks are getting more involved in water parks, they have been coming up with ways to lighten the load of customers. This will enable season pass holders to leave their licenses, purses, and wallets at home, and not risk them getting wet in the water park, or flying out of their pockets on the Iron Rattler.
"That's the way we can verify that it is actually you using that pass," she said.
Purvis said the finger scan system will enable Six Flags season pass holders to also participate in other amenities which can be purchased with the pass. That information will be transferred by finger scan as well.

Motorola MotoACTV – small and light
At only 46x46mm and weighing just 34g, this music player and GPS sensor is both light and barely noticeable. It's like an iPod Nano with a built-in tracker.
Oh, but there's even more – not only does it track your position while you're running, but also your heart rate using a revolutionary pair of (optional) wireless headphones that read your pulse using infra-red beams. It's even ANT+ compatible, meaning it'll link up to most other sensors that you're carrying around (such as bike cadence readers) without fuss.
Motorola MotoACTV – touchscreen
The Gorilla Glass touchscreen works well, even while moving at speed, thanks to the included armband. The music player's sound quality won't blow your mind next to the best MP3 players, but it's good enough for running, and smartphone connectivity means you can even take calls through it.
And when the work is done, you can sync your stats wirelessly to motoactv.com via its built-in Wi-Fi.

Four free creative workshops geared to students in middle school will be offered on Saturdays in March as part of the Montana State University President's Fine Arts Series.
Art Saturdays, hands-on workshops for students in grades 6-8, will be taught by faculty and students from the College of Arts and Architecture in celebration of the fine arts series, which this year is called "Art Matters." All of the workshops will be held from 9 a.m. - noon on the MSU campus.
"All of the workshops are designed to engage our community's youth in creative thinking and the joy of artistic expression," said Nancy Cornwell, dean of the MSU College of Arts and Architecture, which is sponsoring the events. "Through these hands-on workshops, students will experience why ArtMatters."
"Making Music" will be taught on March 1 by Greg Young, interim director of the MSU School of Music and a clarinetist, and Bill Clinton, woodworking instructor in the School of Architecture, as well as a musician. In this School of Music instrument-building workshop, students will learn how to build instruments from recycled materials. The workshop will be held in room 108 of Cheever Hall.
"Building for Your Future" will also be held on March 1. Taught by members of the MSU chapter of the American Institute of Architecture students, workshop participants will learn architectural principles from a skyscraper building activity. The hands-on workshop will also include a scavenger hunt around campus looking for architectural styles and building types. The class will be held at 214 Cheever Hall.
"Photo Scavenger Hunt" will be held March 22. Taught by MSU photo students and Alexis Pike, professor in the School of Film and Photography, students will participate in a scavenger hunt in which they are given themes for photos and then instructed to go out and take photos that capture those themes. Workshop instructors will work with the students to produce final prints of their work. The workshop will be held in room 148 of the Visual Communications Building, located on the corner of 11th and Grant.
"Rock Stretching 101," a ceramics workshop, also will be held March 22. Taught by Dean Adams, professor of ceramics, students will explore ceramic production. The workshop will be held in room 108 Haynes Hall.
Space in each workshop is limited, and pre-registration is encouraged. Call 994-6654 for more information or to register for a workshop.

Los Angeles • A NASA spacecraft bound for Jupiter will swing by Earth on Wednesday to get the boost it needs to arrive at the giant gas planet in 2016.
Using Earth as a gravitational slingshot is a common trick since there isn't a rocket that's powerful enough to catapult a spacecraft directly to the outer solar system.
Launched in 2011, the Juno spacecraft zipped past Mars, Earth's closest planetary neighbor. It looped back and will make a quick pass by Earth to gather momentum to continue toward Jupiter, located 484 million miles from the sun.
During the maneuver, the solar-powered, windmill-shaped Juno will briefly pass into Earth's shadow and emerge over India's east coast. At closest approach, Juno will fly within 350 miles of the Earth's surface, passing over the ocean off the coast of South Africa shortly before 12:30 p.m.

Why do this problem?
This is an engaging problem
that challenges students to work in 3 dimensions and to use different representations of the cube. It can be used to encourage students to persevere, collaborate, work systematically and reason logically.
Possible approach
Introduce the task by challenging the students to create an anti-rubik's cube.
Offer them multilink cubes (plastic coloured cubes that fix together), pencil and paper and the computer interactivity so that they have a choice of ways in which to approach the problem.
Let students pursue their own attempts to orientate themselves within this context, but attention may be drawn, at well-judged moments, to the number of faces that cubes in individual positions will have 'visible'.
Key questions
Some of the 27 cubes have faces that are invisible from the 'outside' of the large cube. How many cubes have no 'visible' faces? One face visible? Two faces visible? Three faces visible?
If one colour appears in a corner, where will the other two cubes of the same colour need to appear?
There will be a cube of some colour at the centre. Where else will cubes of that colour need to be positioned?
Possible extension
If students have chosen how to solve the problem from a range of possibilities (ie. multilink cubes, pencil and paper or the computer interactivity) challenge them to solve the puzzle again from scratch using a different approach.
Possible support
Students could attempt
Painted Cube
before trying this problem.
Handouts for teachers are available here (

), with the problem on one side and the notes on the other.

Shweiki is pleased to announce that they will be serving as a sponsor for the 27th annual Old Settler's Music Festival, and will show their support by taking care of the printing needs for the four-day Texas Hill Country event.
Austin, TX (PRWEB) March 11, 2014
Shweiki Media Printing Company is pleased to announce that they will be serving as sponsors for the 27th annual Old Settler's Music Festival and showing their support by taking care of the printing needs for the four-day Texas Hill Country event.
Old Settler's Music Festival presents bluegrass, folk and Americana acts performing on four stages over four days--an experience enhanced by a beautiful setting and camping in the Texas Hill Country. The yearly festival, which kicked off in 1987, has developed into a nationally recognized event and celebration of Americana and roots music--all of which is evidenced by past headliners: Patty Griffin, Joan Osborne, Bruce Hornsby, Iron & Wine, Alison Krauss, the Avett Brothers, Robert Earl Keen and more. This year's lineup is no exception to past years' excellence, with 30 bands scheduled to play over the four-day span, including Jeff Bridges & the Abiders, Big Head Todd and the Monsters, Robert Randolph & The Family Band, and others.
Taking place April 10-13 at the Salt Lick Pavilion and Camp Ben McCulloch in Driftwood, Texas (right outside of Austin), the festival will also boast a market filled with unique crafts; family-friendly activities for children; and craft beer and food selections. Old Settler's private-label wines will also return, with new red and white blends produced exclusively for the festival by the nearby Duchman Family Winery.
For those who haven't been to the festival, the atmosphere and experience can best be described by the following phrase from their site: "We're more craft beer than light beer. We'd rather kick back than crowd-surf. And every year is full of surprises."
More information on the festival is available at oldsettlersmusicfest.org, and single-day wristbands, 3- and 4-day packages and the all-inclusive platinum pass can be purchased on the website or by calling 888.512.SHOW.
Shweiki is a big supporter of both the arts and the Austin community, and is proud to serve as a sponsor for this established event by doing what they do best: providing high-quality, hassle-free and on-time printing.
Shweiki Media's mission has always been to help publishers improve by providing the most profitable, hassle-free printing experience possible.

The information concerning fat transfer out there is confusing and contradictory. Can fat be used to correct rolling scars or contour deformities (such as dents in the face caused by bad dermabrasion or laser?) If it is possible it can, what kind? Thanks in advance.
Fat Transfer for Facial Contour Deformities?
Doctor Answers 4
Fat grafting to the face
Fat grafting is a very powerful and effective technique to recontour the face. This technique has been used to help rejuvenate the face, camouflage areas of lipoatrophy or birth defects, and help correct scars. A successful result is dependent on the quality of fat that is used in the technique in which it is applied. You may be a good candidate for fat grafting to the face. Be sure that you're working with board-certified plastic surgeon with regular experience not only in fat grafting techniques but also in facial corrected and rejuvenation surgery. Such an expert will be able to assess the quality of your skin and determine if you have enough volume for the fat grafts and if your skin is of good quality to accept the grafts and produce a natural result
Fat grafting helpful for deep contour deformity
Fat grafting is helpful for larger and deeper contour deformities (depressions) on the face. If the depressions are small and superficial then fat is not the best option

Use of fat transfers to correct defects caused by laser and dermabrasion
Fat transfers can be EXTREMELY useful in these cases.
I have used it for acne defects, laser defects, and what strikes me is the improvement in the quality of the skin itself, which is as much a plus as the actual volume fill.
The reason is that properly harvested fat grafts are rich in stem cells. These stem cells actually create new tissues and make the skin younger.
See the blog post below if you are interested in stem cells and how they can help.

Uses of Fat Transfers
Fat Transfers are the moving of viable fat cells from one area of the body to another and having it re establish a blood supply so that it lives and lasts forever. Fat can be used in any areas that fillers are used and is especially cost effective when large quantities are needed -- such as in corrections of liposuction deformities and in Buttocks augmentations.
It can certainly correct dents in the face, lip augmentations, facial volumization to youthen the face.

Israel hits Gaza security compound
Repeated air strikes on Gaza have destroyed several targets including a Palestinian security forces compound after Israel threatened to respond to missiles being fired into Sderot.
At least 32 people were injured, including children, when an F-16 fighter jet "decimated" a building used by the Executive Force, Al Jazeera's Nour Odeh said.
About two hours later on Thursday afternoon another missile hit a car killing a senior members of Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of Hamas, the group said.
The group has threatened to renew its suicide bombing campaign in response to the strikes.
Abu Ubaida, the group's spokesman, said: "This is an open war launched against Hamas. All options are open, including martyrdom operations."
Rocket attacks
At least two Israelis in the town of Sderot were injured by rockets fired by Palestinian groups on Thursday.
Miri Eisen, spokeswoman for the Israeli prime minister, told Al Jazeera: "Israel has been under attack for days, for weeks. The Hamas themselves have already openly said that they support terror.
"Israel restrained itself completely for the last five months when every day there were rocket attacks. Israel will defend our citizens, we will not let the Hamas, we will not let the rocket people, the launchers, this Hamas-led government define the situation."
Israel says that about 70 Qassam rockets have been fired into the southern Israeli town in the past two days.
Executive Force
David Chater, Al Jazeera's correspondent in Jerusalem, said: "The Israeli prime minister is under great pressure to try and stop these rocket barrages ... and Israel has obviously decided to loosen its policy of restraint.
"[The Executive Force] are not completely, exclusively Hamas and also they have not been responsible, as far as we know, for launching any Qassam rockets, that has been in the hands of the military wing of Hamas and Islamic Jihad.
Thursday May 17th, 2007 7:49 AM
An Israeli aircraft has bombed a building of the Hamas-run Executive Force in Gaza, killing at least one person and injuring about 45 others.
Israel had threatened a harsh reaction to repeated barrages of Palestinian rockets over the Gaza-Israel border.
Meanwhile the latest truce between Hamas militia men and rivals from Fatah appeared on the edge of collapse.
One person was killed at a funeral for two Hamas fighters. At least 40 people have died in five days of fighting.
Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, who leads Fatah, suddenly cancelled a trip to Gaza that had been billed as an effort to shore up the fourth Hamas-Fatah ceasefire in five days.
Officials said he might now travel from Ramallah in the West Bank on Friday.
Suicide bomb threat
The Israeli air strike destroyed the second floor of a two-storey building belonging to Hamas's Executive Force, a militia force tasked with maintaining security in Gaza.

SPORTS>>Red Devil D shuts down Vilonia
Leader sports editor
CONWAY Reject and deny was the theme of the evening for Jacksonville in a 43-32 win over Vilonia in the opening round of the Wampus Cat Invitational on Monday night.
Cortrell Eskridge blocked eight shots and altered countless others in a physical game in which both teams struggled on the offensive end. Jacksonville blocked a total of 12 Vilonia shots, including five in the opening period.
Cortrell was tough but hes been doing that, said Jacksonville head coach Vic Joyner, whose Red Devils improved to 3-1 and will take on last nights Benton-Forrest City winner on Friday night at 5:30. But they all played hard. It was a physical game.
Most games, they wont let a lot of that stuff go.
Despite the physical nature of the contest, only 17 free throws were shot. Jacksonville made 6 of 11.
Eskridge also skied for nine rebounds to go along with five points. Antwan Lockhart led the Red Devils with 12 points.
Had Jacksonville made half of its inside shots, the game would not have been nearly as close as it was, though Joyner credited the physical play with his teams easy misses.
Thats what Im talking about, he said with a laugh. Why do you think they were missing all those? Those kids were pulling our jerseys, knocking us off the ball. But our kids played through it and did a good job.
The Eagles, a 5A team which earlier this month ended Rose Buds 41-game winning streak, used a pair of three-pointers over a one-minute, 20-second span of the third period to trim an 11-point halftime deficit to 26-23 withtwo minutes left in the quarter.
But Lockhart, normally an inside player, stepped out to hit a three 20 seconds later and sparked a 10-0 run that gave Jacksonville its cushion again. Deshone McClure followed Lockharts bomb with an end-to-end lay-up, and Darris Morant knocked down a 10-footer at the buzzer and the Red Devils led 33-23 at the end of three periods. After missing its first eight shots of the third quarter, Jacksonville made its final four.
Two buckets inside by Laquinton Miles early in the final period kept the lead at 13, and Lockhart delivered the exclamation point with an alley-oop jam, compliments of Miles looping pass.
For style points, Demetris Harris finished off the scoring with another dunk along the baseline after taking a behind-the-back pass from McClure. It was the final of McClures five assists in the contest, to go along with his eight points and six boards.
Miles also had eight points and three assists.
Harris added five points, four steals and eight boards.
The Red Devils connected on only 1 of 9 three-point attempts and just 18 of 49 overall. But the Jacksonville defense forced Vilonia into an even worse 12-of-44 performance.
You cant take anything away from Vilonia, Joyner said. They played the best style for Vilonia. Its going to be tough to beat that team. But we never got frustrated. We just played through it and youve got to give them credit for that.

i think you can still use an ios device with cable on a non bmw assist car. just the interface i think is different, and you dont get cover art and such.
in my opinion the only real thing you get is a2dp streaming and the actual on star like service that you have to pay for. if you have bmw apps and nav you get the google maps send to nav feature.
i'd try my ipod at a car at a dealer that doesnt have it and see if im happy with it. like i would have liked a2dp , but didnt get bmw assist since it didnt seem worth it for just that (i dont have an ios device though, so it had even less appeal).

New claims for unemployment benefits stuck above 400,000
WASHINGTON (AP) The number of Americans seeking unemployment benefits was mostly unchanged last week, evidence that the weak U.S. economy is struggling to generate jobs.
The number of new claims for unemployment benefits ticked down 1,000 to a seasonally adjusted 428,000, the Labor Department said Thursday.
Applications have topped 400,000 for 12 straight weeks. Applications had fallen in February to 375,000, a level that signals sustainable job growth. They stayed below 400,000 for seven of nine weeks. But applications then surged to an eight-month high of 478,000 in April and have shown only modest improvement since that time.
The four-week average, a less volatile measure, has been stuck at about 426,000 for a month.
INTERACTIVE: Where the jobs are
"Another disappointing report," Jennifer Lee, an economist at BMO Capital Markets, wrote in a note to clients. "This report does nothing to reassure anyone that the job environment is improving."
Many economists say temporary factors prompted companies to pull back on hiring this spring. High gas prices have cut into consumer spending. And a parts shortage stemming from the March 11 earthquake in Japan slowed U.S. manufacturing production, particularly in the auto industry.
Employers added only 54,000 jobs in May, much slower than the average gain of 220,000 a month in the previous three months. The unemployment rate rose to 9.1%.
The economy needs to generate at least 125,000 jobs a month just to keep up with population growth. And at least twice that many jobs are needed to bring down the unemployment rate.
Gas prices have fallen steadily in the past two months since peaking in early May at an average of nearly $4 a gallon. On Thursday the national average was $3.54 per gallon, according to AAA.
Still, the U.S. economy isn't growing quickly enough to generate that many jobs. The government said last week that the economy grew only 1.9% in the January-March quarter. Most analysts expect the economy is growing at about the same weak rate in the April-June period, which ends Thursday.
Weekly unemployment claims
The economy typically needs to grow at 5% for a year to reduce the unemployment rate by one percentage point.
The International Monetary Fund on Wednesday became the latest institution to forecast weak growth for the U.S. economy this year and next. The lending organization said it expects growth of 2.5% this year and 2.75% in 2012.
Unemployment will still average 8.4% in 2012, the IMF predicted in its annual report on the U.S. economy.
Last week, the Federal Reserve acknowledged that the economy has slowed in recent months. Fed officials said that "recent labor market indicators have been weaker than anticipated."
The central bank reduced its forecast for employment and growth this year. It projects that unemployment at the end of 2011 will be 8.6% to 8.9%. That's worse than a Fed forecast two months ago, which put the unemployment rate at 8.4% to 8.7%.
The number of people receiving unemployment benefits fell 12,000 to 3.7 million, the fewest in about two months. But that doesn't include millions of additional laid-off workers who are receiving extended benefits under emergency programs put in place during the recession. All told, about 7.5 million people received unemployment benefits in the week of June 11, the latest data available.

NATHAN CLEVERLY is eager to box in America again soon after fans in Los Angeles warmed to his crowd-pleasing style on Saturday night.
The WBO light-heavyweight champion produced a stylish and dominant display in his fourth defence to send late replacement opponent Shawn Hawk to the canvas three times towards the end of an eight-round technical knockout win at the Staples Center.
The 25-year-old did not have it all his own way, occasionally shipping meaty right hands from his American foe when in all-out-attacking mode, but the ringside judges would not have required Cleverly's degree in mathematics to identify a wide lead on the scorecards when the stoppage came.
"I like to take risks sometimes, so I get caught with punches, but this is boxing," said Cleverly. "It's a combat sport.
"I enjoyed this, I enjoyed the atmosphere. He was a tough opponent but eventually I broke him down. I'm really looking forward to coming back to the US and fighting here again."
The Cefn Fforest fighter said: "I got some good exposure on American TV and I think the crowd enjoyed the fight.
"They booed me as I went in but some fans gave me a standing ovation when I left the ring, which shows my exciting style can win people over here."
Winning over the locals has been the name of the game for Cleverly during fight week and he leaves the Sunset Strip with some friends in high places.
Final sparring sessions at Freddie Roach's Wild Card Gym caught the eye of the Hall of Fame trainer, who expressed an interest in working with a boxer who now boasts a perfect 25-bout professional record.
Oscar De La Hoya professed himself to be a member of the Cleverly fan club and the six-weight world champion turned promoter touted an enticing match-up with 47-year-old ring veteran Bernard Hopkins next year.
The other major alphabet champions in Cleverly's division – American duo Chad Dawson and Tavoris Cloud and US-based Kazak Beibut Shumenov – are also potential opponents in 2013, which must surpass a quiet past 12 months for the Welshman.
Cleverly also ensured there was a touch of Hollywood glamour added to proceedings as Sir Tom Jones and actor Mickey Rourke accompanied him to the ring.
"Mickey is a cracking guy and Tom is a Welsh legend who is known and respected around the world," he added.
"It was an honour to have them both in my team and I can't thank them enough for wanting to help me make a name for myself in America. Although it was quite surreal – my mum loves Tom Jones and she's well chuffed."

Greetings everyone, Im currently a TL in one of the call centers in makati. I thought of creating this thread for everyone in the same position who can share their best practices in handling a team. Areas like increasing sales, team building, effective coaching, dealing w/ "uncooperative" team members etc. Though we are from different call centers I still believe that being on the same industry we can help each other out with productivity.
Call center agents are welcome to post their suggestions/comments too in order for us, teamleaders, to improve our job.

DE GUSTIBUS; Seaching Out Chilies and Such North of the Border
By MARIAN BURROS
Published: December 13, 1989
TWO years after Casa Moneo closed for renovation, never to open again, New Yorkers are still scrambling for the fixings to produce Mexican dishes like burritos, salsa verde and mole poblano. The 59-year-old store on West 14th Street was the single most important source on the East Coast for ingredients and equipment used in Mexican cooking.
Although Mexican food has grown in popularity and just about every New York City neighborhood has some version (Mexican, Tex-Mex, New Mexican, California-Mex or Southwestern), retail sources for the ingredients have not.
The desperate state of affairs has improved somewhat in the last two years. In January 1988, Stuart Tarabour, the owner of Kitchen, a California-Mex carryout at 218 Eighth Avenue (21st Street), promised that his shop would become the new Casa Moneo. But Mr. Tarabour said recently that a shortage of money had kept him from opening a full-fledged successor.
Still, in its 12-foot-by-50-foot space, Kitchen has far more ingredients than a quick glance would indicate. Most of them are back in the kitchen or under the counter. ''We have more things than anyone in town,'' Mr. Tarabour said, ''but we don't look like much.''
It is doubtful that anyone has a larger assortment of spanking fresh tortillas. Blue, yellow and white corn tortillas are available in the 6-inch size; 11- and 12-inch tortillas come in whole-wheat and white flour, perfect for a meal-in-one burrito.
Back in the refrigerator there are several varieties of fresh jalapeno, serrano and poblano chilies, and there are tomatilloes, fruits that resemble green tomatoes in a papery husk.
The dried chili assortment is extensive: pasilla, mulato, pequin, arbol, cascabel, serrano, chipotle, guajillo and japones as well as dried jalapeno flakes and dehydrated pasilla. Dried chilies are always handy to have, and the jalapeno flakes can be used in a pinch in place of fresh jalapeno.
The dehydrated pasillas are of particular interest. Soaked in hot water for several minutes, they soften and turn green again and can be used just like the roasted fresh version.
Some of the canned products are of very high quality, especially the red mole and the chipotles in adobo sauce. Even for those who don't cook Mexican, a little of either of these sauces adds a subtle hot flavor to poultry, beef and rice.
Canned tomatilloes, canned cactus (nopales) and pickled jalapenos are available for emergencies when neither can be found fresh or it's just too much trouble to go 30 blocks out of the way to get them.
Also available are corn husks for empanadas; blue-corn meal; posole, both blue and yellow; roasted pinon nuts in the shell; Mexican cinnamon; hot sauces, and some fresh herbs.
There's no question that Kitchen has some of the best freshly made chips in the city: blue, white and yellow corn chips and whole-wheat flour chips are made each day. They are not salted (they don't need it).
A discussion of Kitchen would be incomplete without at least a mention of the high quality carryout food it provides.
Its burritos, which last for days, are filled with unusual combinations like vegetarian chili made with chickpeas, rice and greens. And for the more traditional there is the cinnamony pork filling.
Equally appealing are the black bean salad with corn and posole, the tomato-corn soup and the black bean soup, all subtly seasoned with different chilies. There are two superb corn breads: the yellow (slightly sweet, very moist and delicately flavored with chilies) and the blue corn (with an intense, rich cheese taste).
The desserts, with their Mexican accent, make choosing difficult, but my favorite was the aromatic pound cake with a hint of cilantro and a touch of lime. Banana-chocolate pound cake was almost as good, and there was something very comforting about the two bread puddings, one made with chocolate and cinnamon, the other with bananas and cinnamon.
Mr. Tarabour also recommends Fines Herbes, a wholesale herb and greens company owned by Peter Goldstein, which will, on special request, order some Mexican ingredients that are particularly difficult to find: epazote, Mexican oregano, mint marigold as well as nopales and that indescribably delicious and exotic corn fungus called huitlachoche. The company has a small retail store at 4 Leonard Street between West Broadway and Hudson Street. Call 212-334-7022 for hours.
Just as Mr. Tarabour at Kitchen has plans to expand his line, two others who said two years ago that they were working on opening stores are still at it.
One of the two, Josefina Howard, an owner of the restaurant Rosa Mexicano, 1063 First Avenue (58th Street), said recently that she would open a place in a minute if she could find someone to give her the money. She hasn't given up.
Zarela Martinez, the owner of Zarela's, a Mexican restaurant at 953 Second Avenue (50th Street), is further along in her pursuit. In fact she is negotiating for a location in Manhattan. In questionnaires answered by Zarela's patrons, the vast majority said they would like the new shop to offer Mexican takeout food, home delivery and Mexican ingredients.
In the meantime, Ms. Martinez and Rosa Mexicano will sell ingredients used in the restaurants.
Fresh chilies and cilantro are regularly available at Fairway Market, 2127 Broadway (74th Street), along with a number of other Mexican items.
Other sources for some Mexican ingredients include Balducci's, 424 Avenue of the Americas (Ninth Street); Dean & DeLuca, 560 Broadway (Prince Street), and depending on the neighborhood, supermarkets and stores specializing in Asian ingredients.
La Marqueta, a collection of enclosed stalls under the railroad tracks above Park Avenue between 112th and 116th Streets, also has some Mexican produce.
In New Providence, N.J., Favio's restaurant will sell its ingredients, including homemade chorizos, with two days' notice.
In Connecticut, the three Hay Day Markets - in Greenwich (203-637-7600), Westport (203-227-9008) and Hamden (203-288-3148) - have some ingredients.
In Middletown, N.Y., L. A. Barbone Inc. Fine Mexican Food Products (Crystal Run Road, Middletown 10940; 914-692-9221) has an extensive selection of fresh and packaged ingredients that may be ordered by mail. The Pecos Valley Spice Company sells ground spices and chilies, yellow and blue corn masa, dried corn husks, salsas and tostados by mail: 500 East 77th Street, New York, N.Y. 10162; 212-628-5374.
In pursuit of Mexican ingredients, I called several sources in Texas. They were unable to help, but each of them had a similar comment: ''I thought you could find everything in New York.''

Bleeding (hemorrhage)
Bleeding within the brain (intracerebral hemorrhage) may be small, but also may cause associated swelling that may cause damage to the brain and result in coma. Blood is in the brain tissue is irritating and leads to inflammation with swelling. Many patients with small amounts of bleeding have the potential to recover very well.
Epidural, subdural, and subarachnoid hemorrhages
The lining of the brain has multiple layers, and these layers can act as potential spaces where bleeding can occur.
Epidural hematomas are located between the skull and the tissue that covers the brain (dura mater). These hematomas that are localized collections of loose blood are often associated with skull fractures and tears in arteries located near the fracture site.
Subdural hematomas are located beneath the dura mater and occur when the bridging veins from the skull to the brain are torn.
As the blood continues to accumulate, pressure builds within the skull and the brain is shifted away from the site of bleeding, compressing the brain against the skull. With both hemispheres of the brain compromised, loss of consciousness and coma may result. The more swelling, the higher the intracranial pressure, the deeper the coma.
Each brain is different and in older patients whose brains have atrophied and become smaller with age, there is more room in the skull to accommodate a small amount of swelling or bleeding. Each bleeding situation is different and each patient is assessed individually. However, being unconscious because of brain bleeding and/or swelling is associated with a poorer outcome than unconsciousness from drug toxicity, or seizures, etc.
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (bleeding beneath the arachnoid layer) occurs in the layer of the brain lining where cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is located. CSF is produced in the ventricles that are located deep in the brain and is the nutrient fluid that bathes the brain and spinal cord. Bleeding here may cause few symptoms or it may cause significant problems like coma or stroke. Bleeding is often associated with a significant headache and neck stiffness.
Bleeding can occur within the skull or brain without trauma. Some medical causes of this form of bleeding include:
- Hypertension (high blood pressure): when blood pressure is too high, and not controlled, blood vessels in the brain may not be able to tolerate the high pressure and may leak blood into the brain, subarachnoid space, or both.
- Cerebral aneurysm, or an area in a blood vessel that is congenitally weak and ruptures. Some people are born with blood vessels that have a weak wall that can gradually balloon, like a weak spot in an inner tube. At some time in their life, or perhaps never, the weak spot gives way and blood is spilled into the subarachnoid space.
- Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are abnormal blood vessels where arteries connect directly to veins and cause potential weak spots that can leak blood. Normally, arteries branch into smaller and smaller vessels until they form the smallest set of vessels called capillaries. Capillaries form meshes where chemicals, nutrients, oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged from the blood stream to individual cells. The capillaries then merge to form larger blood vessels, the veins. In AVMs, this relationship of artery to capillary to vein is abnormal and is at risk for bleeding.
- Tumors, either benign or malignant, can be very vascular (composed of many arteries, veins, and capillaries) and have significant bleeding potential.
Picture of the brain and potentially brain injury areas
Just as blood takes up space within the skull and can cause coma, so may brain tumors. Brain tumors may be associated with localized swelling edema, inflammation and bleeding. Seizures, stroke-like symptoms, decreased mental status, and change in behavior may be the initial symptom. Most often, the symptoms have a gradual onset, but coma can progress quickly if bleeding or swelling occur.

Aid Your Immune System and Promote Optimal Health with Antimicrobial Peptides
Good health is something that isn't to be taken for granted. Through proper nutrition, exercise regiments and yearly check-ups at the doctors, we do everything possible to live longer, healthier lives. In addition, many people take supplements such as multi-vitamins or even pills that promote weight loss. In fact, every day there are more and more natural alternatives introduced that promote healthy lifestyles and one such product is an antimicrobial peptide supplement that has been proven to have many health benefits.
How Do Antimicrobial Peptides Help My Immune System?
Every day we as humans come into contact with the millions of bacteria that thrive all around us. In fact, over 95 percent of all bacteria on this Earth live in harmony with us and we need some of it for our very survival. Although in many aspects bacteria are lifesavers, the ones that do cause us harm can unfortunately at times be fatal. Taking an antimicrobial peptide supplement is the perfect way to find a balance between killing the bad bacteria and viruses that we might encounter in our everyday lives and help cleanse and balance our immune systems for optimal health.
Benefits of Taking Antimicrobial Peptide Supplements
By taking supplements like antimicrobial peptides you'll reap many health benefits and therapeutic agents that can help treat many different diseases. Because the peptides are in competition with bacterial cells and foreign host cells in your body, it enables them to kill foreign microorganism and host cells without being toxic to the host-which is you. Through this selective process these peptides are good for individuals who have been exposed to a wide range of bacterial and viruses that can cause infections such as HIV, SARS, Influenza and cancer. Unlike many known antibiotics, peptides are thought to have the ability to enhance the natural immune system, making it stronger and more capable to fight foreign particles when they enter the body. An antimicrobial peptide supplement actually aids in the prevention of diseases and illness, not just the treatment of them.
There are many benefits to taking antimicrobial peptide supplements that will increase all aspects of your health. They are a wonderful natural alternative to many other chemical products out on the market today. Not only do antimicrobial peptides help your immune system to be stronger and better at fighting off illness and diseases but there are also positive anti-aging benefits as well. Through the use of these supplements and by maintaining proper health, you'll be able to live longer, happier and healthier lives.

The following observations were made in the Alpine village of Bellcombe and the outlying hamlet of Brossieux, Savoie France.
Brossieux seen from Bellcombe.
Bellcombe seen from Brossieux.
The community bake house in the hamlet of Broissieux, Savoie France.
The oven its self was re built in 1941 in the hamlets original bake house, which is about 150 years old. All occupants of the Hamlet worked voluntarily on the construction, and money was collected to pay for the prefabricated elements of the bake chamber and the specialist who was brought in to construct the vault.
One of two community wash troughs in Brossiex now used as flower pots. Though once the nuceus of communal life, the wash troughs, like the oven, are now little more than romantic village ornaments.
Iron tie bars traverse the bake house from side to side, retaining the lateral throw of the ovens vault.
The oven was fired every two weeks in winter and every third week in Summer.
The villagers would take turns at firing, each bringing their own faggots and firing for their own bake loads. Those who fired it first from cold would need about 12 to 15 faggots and have to wait half a day for it to achieve operational temperature. Those using it last at the end of the second day of baking, needed only two faggots. Those who used it first on one occasion would use it last the next time.
Ashes were equally divided amongst the inhabitants, and used as fertiliser.
The vault is formed from refractory brick of several different formats, bought by the hamlet as a semi prefabricated kit that was assembled by an expert.
The round flue at the back of the bake chamber is the principal outlet of the gasses, and leads into a masonry flue that passes over the outside of the vault and feeds back into the avaloir above the loading opening. This helped reduce time taken to reach operating temperature and could be used to reduce temperature during baking, without opening the door.
The steel door originally slid to the left, when opened, on a steel rail affixed to the facing. The operating handle top right controls the draw through the exit flue in the back of the vault. The flue feeds into the avaloir through the square opening in the face behind, below and slightly left of the operating handle.
The flue leading from the exit opening, over the vault to the avaloire. The rod connects the operating handle to a shut off damper over the exit opening in the vault. The flue runs through 50 cm of sand and clay which covers the vault.
The Bake house in Bellecombe.
Like the bake house in Brossieux, the structure seen here is at least 150 years old. The oven its self though was rebuilt, apparently some time before the rebuilding of the Brossieux oven.
The bakehouse seen from the road behind.
The interior of the bakehouse.
Though in worse condition than the Brossieux oven, the vault is of essentially the same construction, being made from several formats of refractory brick. Like the Brossieux oven there is also a flue exiting the rear of the vault, traversing the mass on the outside of the vault, and feeding into the avaloire.
The refractory brick vault. No reliable information was available concerning the origins of these specially formed moduls, though slightly different to the Brossieux oven's vault, and said to be earlier, the materials look to be from the same source.
The facade of the oven. The operating handle (top right) for the flue is of
exactly the same fabrication as the one in Brossieux.
View up the avaloire, showing its shut off plate in the open position. The iron bar keeps the hinged shut of plate in position when closed.
The rectangular flue, (at middle left), inside the avaloire, and the corner
of the avaloirs shut off plate, at top.
This dwelling in Bellecombe still has an operational cookstove and domestic oven, as well as a standard RWA.
Note the Faggots stacked on top of the wash trough.
A couple who moved into the village recently, were firmly informed by the local wood dealer that he would not deliver more wood if he saw them storing it outside, unprotected from the elements.
The villager living opposite the oven in Brossieux, as a 14 year old boy witnessed a thousand fascist troops enter Bellecombe in 1944. Looking for the Marquis. They executed Jules Laboret, Emile Bouvier, Jean Lachenal, August Nicould, Andre Pricaz, and Albert Bouvier. And tortured several others. Though the details of his account are too horrific to describe in this article, it should be noted that these Fascists were not all Germans.

Worst shoe ever?
New York magazine's The Cut has a slideshow feature of the 50 Ugliest Shoes in History, and while "ugly" is of course in the eye of the beholder I'd defend Doc Martens and maybe even the Earth Shoe in terms of form following function some of these Dr. Moreauvian creations perhaps ought not to be beheld at all, and as it happens, of the two I like least, one has already been featured here. This is the other:
Said The Cut of the Brian Atwood "Charleston" peep-toe platform ankle boot, unleashed this year:
Dripping with a bordello's worth of upholstery tassels, the "Charleston" has a Clydesdale look without the unsavory reality of actually killing and wearing a horse's hoof.
Evidently and perhaps surprisingly to some I have a great deal of resistance to hooves in this context.

Best East Hampton location. Close to village and to ocean. This beautifully decorated stylish house is the perfect vacation home for two weeks in July. Incredible grounds for entertaining with sounds of the ocean. Seating for 20! Incredible living spaces with large living room, sun porch, dining room, eat in kitchen. 7 bedrooms and baths including a master that overlooks the ocean. Other / Short Term - June: $70,000
The Hamptons may be internationally renowned as a playground for the rich and famous, but there's so much more to this striking region on the eastern end of Long Island, New York than parties and polo within Gatsby-esque luxury homes. For starters, while the sidewalks of the hamlets and villages that make up the area collectively known as The Hamptons are often teeming with a who's who of bold-face names and C-suite executives, the beaches are the real stars here.Read more about luxury homes in The Hamptons And Northfork

The tale: I ran a 1.5.1 system that was working well. If it had screen sharing, I was too dumb to find it so I used the x11vnc port instead. No problems that I could see. I put off upgrading until 7.0.2 seemed to settle down. I didn't look for screen sharing. I just installed x11vnc and started trying to use it. This did not work well. It seemed to behave as though the sleep/screen saver would kick in on the VNC window after only a few seconds. It could be awakened just about long enough to position the mouse and hit a button ... if you knew right where it was. So, I started looking for a reason. Still haven't found one but I did discover Screen Sharing. So, I tried it. It did not behave well either. It seemed to provide two screen images, offset by about a 1/4-inch, mushed together. On top of that are flickering, moving color blocks. The system seems to work well used at the console. No funny screen artifacts. No quick sleep or screen saver invocations. I've not changed my viewer, though I experimented with a range of its settings to see what the behavior would be, and am, in fact, using it to type this message right now (not via a PC-BSD machine, however).

text: A session is a Unix/Linux concept of a collection of processes usually for the purpose of associating those processes with a tty, eg. login session. The session id of a process is set to its process id by calling setsid(). Children of that process will inherit that session id. Run ps -ej to see the PID, PGID and SID of all processes. A PBS job is made up of tasks which are also just collections of processes. The MOM initially spawns one task (a shell) which runs the job batch script. That batch script (through calls to the PBS tm API inside mpiexec or pbsdsh commands etc) may request MOMs to spawn other tasks as part of the PBS job. PBS would like to believe that each task in a PBS job has a session id associated with it. Certainly the MOM calls setsid() as it initializes each task so they do start with a unique session id. For the purposes of resource monitoring and signalling, the MOM uses the session id of a process to decide if the process is part of a job task or not. (The MOM walks the whole process tree on a host to track jobs.) But since any process can call setsid() at any time (with some restrictions), this tracking method is fallable. After calling setsid(), a process has effectively "escaped" from MOM. Ideally within the kernel each process would also have a JID ("jobid") that can only be set by a privileged user (like MOM) and inherited by all children.

A fourth-order Runge-Kutta in the interaction picture (RK4IP) method is presented for solving the coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equation (CNLSE) that governs the light propagation in optical fibers with randomly varying birefringence. The computational error of RK4IP is caused by the fourth-order Runge-Kutta algorithm, better than the split-step approximation limited by the step size. As a result, the step size of RK4IP can have the same order of magnitude as the dispersion length and/or the nonlinear length of the fiber, provided the birefringence effect is small. For communication fibers with random birefringence, the step size of RK4IP can be orders of magnitude larger than the correlation length and the beating length of the fibers, depending on the interaction between linear and nonlinear effects. Our approach can be applied to the fibers having the general form of local birefringence and treat the Kerr nonlinearity without approximation. Our RK4IP results agree well with those obtained from Manakov-PMD approximation, provided the polarization state can be mixed enough on the Poincaré sphere.

Fighting fans have plenty to celebrate this week with the arrival of THQ's mixed martial arts title UFC Undisputed 3.
The series returns with a revamped control scheme, new mechanics for submissions and the debut of stars from Pride Fighting Championships.
Dozens of fighters will appear, including UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Jon "Bones" Jones.
The 24-year-old champ spoke with Game Hunters earlier this week to talk UFC and more.
Game Hunters: Have you checked out the game?
Jones: Yeah, actually I was playing it like 30 seconds ago.
GH: What are your initial impressions?
Jones: I love it. I love the energy, and I love how it's Pride and UFC. I love how you can mix weight classes, like GSP (Georges St. Pierre) vs. Brock Lesnar. That's pretty insane. The game is just sweet. It's a fight fan's dream.
GH: How well do you think developers captured you in the game?
Jones: I think they did a great job. They made me a lot more muscular than I actually am (laughs). The kickboxing is awesome, the ground and pound is devastating. It's pretty accurate.
GH: For players that choose you in the game, what tips would you give them to win?
Jones: Oh, dominate. Just dominate.
GH: Any specific areas to focus on?
Jones: The ground and pound. I have really good takedowns in the game, as I do in real life, (and) really good clenches in the game. Use that clench, take the guy down and use that devastating elbow attack from the top. That's how you do it.
GH: Earlier, you mentioned liking to mix up weight classes. If you had to pick one fighter to take on outside your weight class, who would it be?
Jones: GSP, without a doubt.
GH: Why?
Jones: Because he's my boy. He's a friend of mine. He's an absolute animal, and that's beyond the welterweight class. Why not challenge yourself against one of the best?
GH: How do you see this game reaching out to people who might not be familiar with UFC?
Jones: It's really a great tool. I remember when I was a little dude -- had to have been almost eight years ago now -- I ran into the very first Pride game. At the time, I had never seen UFC, never heard anything like it, but I was a wrestler.
And I'm playing this video game where -- like Mortal Kombat you can kick and punch and do flying techniques, but you can shoot on a guy and take them down and punch them. That's what drew me to the sport, the fact that you could shoot on a guy and (that) it was so similar to wrestling.
Subconsciously, I'm educating myself on mixed martial arts and found myself really liking the sport. A few years later, I saw an event on TV and was instantly captivated. Now, I'm a world champion of mixed martial arts. So, I think that video game in some way had something to do with my career path.
GH: Any other video games you enjoyed growing up?
Jones: I grew up playing lots of (NFL) Blitz with my brothers. We played that all night long. I was big on Splinter Cell for a few years, and now I'm a Call of Duty head -- I love Call of Duty.
GH: Career wise, what's up next?
Jones: I'm getting ready to defend my title for the third time against Rashad Evans. Upstate New Yorker, really tough guy, Michigan State wrestler, former world champion -- right now, he's the No. 1 contender. That's gonna be April 21 in Atlanta. UFC 145 -- Jones vs. Evans.
Mike Snider began covering the video game industry during the Super Nintendo-Sega Genesis clash in 1992. An original pinball wizard, he eventually was seduced by Robotron: 2084 and Tempest. These days he is a fan of action/shooters and lives out his Keith Moon fantasies playing a mean drum kit on music games. More about Mike.
Brett Molina has been writing about video games for USA TODAY since 2005. He is well-versed in Madden NFL, the fighting genre and first-person shooters. The first video game he played was Asteroids at a local arcade. He has been hooked ever since. More about Brett.

BALLET dancers from the York area are leaping for joy after winning places at prestigious ballet schools and companies.
Several girls from the Rebecca Davies School of Dance in Huntington have secured places at the Royal Ballet School and Northern Ballet, while 19-year-old Joseph Poulton has been awarded a contract with Ballet Black, which provides a role model for aspiring black and Asian dancers.
School principal and teacher Rebecca Davies hailed the achievement of her pupils in the face of stiff competition for places as "absolutely fantastic".
She said Jazmin McNiff, 11, from Acomb, Olivia Rippon, 11, from Osbaldwick, and Aimee Thompson, 12, and Alex Copley, 12, both of Haxby, had won places at both the Northern Ballet in Leeds and Louise Browne Yorkshire Ballet Scholarship Centre in York, which both involved regular lessons at weekends.
Chloe Good, ten, of Huntington, had become a junior associate of the Royal Ballet School, and Georgia Hunt, 13, of Haxby, had become a mid-associate of the Royal Ballet School and an associate of the Northern Ballet, which meant travelling to Leeds and Manchester for lessons every weekend.
Sophie Reynolds, 13, of Huntington, had won a place at the Louise Browne Yorkshire Ballet Scholarship Centre.
Joseph, from Huntington, who has British and Trinidadian parents, will graduate this month from the Central School of Ballet in London with a BA (Hons) in Professional Dance and Performance and will join Ballet Black in September.
Sara Matthews, Director of the school, said graduate employment of dance students had been severely affected by the challenging economic climate, so she was particularly delighted that so many of the school's students, like Joseph, had found jobs in the world's top ballet and dance companies.
"This is an excellent opportunity for Joseph, one of our most talented students," she said. "We will follow his progress with interest."
