WP 2.3.2, Sandbox and MySQL crashing
Hi all,
I'm using a fresh WP installation (2.3.2) with Sandbox / MooPoint theme and the following plugins: Akismet, GeneralStats, SuscribeToComments, WP-Ban, WP-Footnotes. Running with a MySQL 5.0 database.
Now, something odd happened today after installing GeneralStats. I was opening a template file and, all of a sudden, WP stated a database connection error. After 10 seconds the connection came back and everything seemed fine (I could open and save template files). Then happend again when opening functions.php. And then again, after a handful of seconds, reverted.
What could be the cause of such random MySQL connection error?

The McLaren P1 hybrid hypercar is already the perfect car for many car enthusiasts but for those who want more Wheelsandmore has a solution. The well-known tuning company installed a new set of multipiece 20-inch wheels on the front and 21-inch on the drive axle. The wheelcenter design F.I.W.E. was customized with a full carbon tube.
Moreover, the center-lock design and the concave wheelcenter design are visually gaining the supercar´s look as well. If you don't like these wheels you should also check Gemballa's GForged-one wheels. Under the hood, there is the same 3.8-liter twin-turbo V8 engine that generates 737 hp and 720 Nm of torque. Moreover, the McLaren P1 also carries an electric motor that delivers 179 hp and a maximum torque of 260 Nm.
The electric motor comes mounted directly on the engine and helps the vehicle deliver a maximum output of 916 hp. The power is delivered via the dual-clutch seven-speed gearbox tot he rear wheels.
McLaren P1 is able to hit 100 km/h (62 mph) in less than 3 seconds, to 200 km/h (124 mph) in under 7 seconds and 300 km/h (186 mph) in 17 seconds.
Top speed is electronically limited to 350 km/h or 217 mph. In order to maintain exclusivity, McLaren will build only 375 units. If you want one, we have bad news for you: all the units are sold! The McLaren P1 has a price tag of 1 million euros and is a rival fort he Porsche 918 Spyder and the extreme Ferrari LaFerrari.

text: LEXINGTON, Mass., Jan. 24, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Agenus Inc. (Nasdaq:AGEN) today announced it has entered into a research agreement with Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) using Agenus' proprietary cancer vaccine technology. The collaboration will test Agenus' cancer vaccine in combination with antibodies that are intended to target specific markers on tumor cells, such as CTLA-4 and PDL-1. This group of antibodies represents a new class of immunotherapeutic agents that are thought to have complementary mechanisms of action with cancer vaccines. The studies will be performed in the laboratory of Jedd D. Wolchok, M.D., Ph.D., a leader in the field of cancer immunotherapy. Dr. Wolchok serves as the Associate Director of the Ludwig Center for Cancer Immunotherapy at MSKCC as well as Director of Immunotherapy Clinical Trials. "Collaborating with MSKCC and Dr. Wolchok's laboratory opens a new chapter in the development of our personalized cancer vaccine portfolio for targeting later stages of this disease," said Garo Armen, Ph.D., CEO of Agenus. "Partnerships with leading institutions are central to Agenus' strategy to bringing life-changing products for cancer patients to market faster." Agenus' cancer vaccine is designed to expand and specifically program the army of T-cells responsible for killing tumor cells; however, as cancer grows it becomes smarter and increasingly builds an 'immune fortress' that can protect itself from the attack of T-cells. Therefore, combining a product that activates T-cells with an agent that blocks the signal preventing the T-cells from effectively killing the tumor could have highly potent outcomes. "Combination immunotherapy in cancer is increasingly becoming a key focus of research, and this collaboration will add to this important and growing knowledge base," said Dr. Wolchok. "Our interest in Agenus' cancer vaccine is that it contains many antigens that are genetically matched with the cancer as the product is derived from the tumor itself."

My Experiences with a Picky Eater: Tips to Help you with Yours
(HealthCastle.com) Have you ever found it difficult to get your child to eat vegetables? I have. Years ago when I worked in public health, I had developed and taught classes on how to handle picky eating in children. I thought I had it all figured out – it was simple, right? Parents are responsible for offering nutritious foods in a safe place at fairly consistent times; children are responsible for deciding if they will eat, and how much. In other words, the "feeding relationship" developed by the highly regarded dietitian and social worker Ellyn Satter. When I was "blessed" with a picky eater of my own, I realized that handling picky eating is both simple – and yet very complex.
Picky eating is a very emotional experience for parents. I felt like a failure. I could set goals and achieve them in my professional life, but apparently not in my own family. Here I was – a dietitian - with professional experience in preventing and managing picky eating in other people's lives – but I could NOT get my own child to eat his vegetables.
I knew how important vegetables are for health – how they are a great source of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and that fiber will help to promote healthy growth, healthy weights and healthy bowels, and that children should consume 4-6 servings/day of vegetables and fruit. With this professional knowledge and experience, I felt a lot of social pressure to have a "good eater" – after all, if I couldn't do it, how good of a dietitian was I any way?
There are many things at play when it comes to a child's willingness to try a new food. Here are just a few questions to consider:
- Is my child healthy or does she have [yet another] virus? If she is sick, her appetite may be poor.
- Has my child been active so that he has an appetite for new food? If he has been mostly still, she may not need to eat large amounts of food.
- Has my child filled up on milk and/or juice before her snack or meal? Filling up on milk and/or juice takes away appetite and interest in trying new foods.
- Does my child arrive at the table hungry and ready to eat, or has he been grazing on little food snacks throughout the day? Children need to arrive at the table hungry and ready to eat. Structure and planned snacks are important. Hitting this magical window is not easy.
- What is the meal environment like – is there palpable pressure to try the new food? Can he see my vested interest in him trying this vegetable? Trying new foods is easier when there is good food and good feelings all around.
Shaping a Child's Eating Habits is a Bit Like Shaping Play Dough:
If I gave you a ball of play-dough and asked you to shape it into a round ball, how would you do it? You would gently take the play-dough in between your hands, and use circular motions to form a ball. If you are too rough, you get a flattened ball of play-dough. If you don't apply any pressure, you form a mis-shaped blob.
I have found this analogy helpful when I approach improving my child's eating habits [and other parenting challenges]. As Steven Covey so brilliantly said "Begin with the end in mind". Think about the "end" you envision for your child's eating. Provide structure, offer encouragement [not praise], set expectations, but don't be too harsh or too soft. It's that simple – and that complex.
There is absolutely science involved when it comes to promoting healthy eating in children. There is also a lot of art to your approach - what worked for me might not work for you – and vice versa. However, thinking of shaping your child's eating habits as it relates to play dough - be kind and firm - might help take a bit of the pressure off you.
I'd love to hear your thoughts.

Studies on Chronic Fatigue Syndrome with Gulf War Illness
Our research team is examining proteomic (protein) differences between veterans with Gulf War Illness (GWI) and healthy veterans in hopes of learning more about how GWI works. In our first study, we are also looking at differences in genetics, pain sensitivity, muscular, and autonomic nervous system function between GWI vets and healthy vets. Based on current data, we believe that GWI may be related to a certain genotype for an enzyme (carnosine dipeptidase-1) that degrades two of the body's important antioxidants.
Our second project is a treatment study using Carnosine, one of these antioxidants. If this genetic
difference does contribute to GWI, then replacement of this antioxidant could
provide relief of symptoms.
2) During
a previous study, our research team and our research collaborators discovered
some specific proteins in the spinal fluid of CFS and GWI patients. In this study
we will have a larger group of people with and without CFS/GWI and will look
for those and other unique sets of proteins in the spinal fluid and blood using
more sensitive equipment.

"Listen to your present time tapes and you will begin to see who you are and what you are doing here mix yesterday in with today and hear tomorrow your future rising out of old recordings."
Curator Mark Jackson is bringing together 23 musicians, artists, writers, composers and curators in a collaborative effort based on two unreleased tape experiments by William S. Burroughs from the mid 1960s. Dead Fingers Talk: The Tape Experiments of William S. Burroughs, explores the famous author's obsession with pseudo-scientific investigations of sound, technology and our relationship to them. The infamous ex-patriot Brion Gysin was a large influence on Burroughs' fascination with these type of extreme manipulations, although he is not on these particular tapes. This event will be happening at the continually impressive London contemporary art gallery, IMT
Each of the participants were asked to contribute "a recording" in response to these unique tapes and the result has been a wide variety of mediums and styles, each player reinterpreting what "recording" means to them. There is so far no word from IMT if these one-of-a-kind tapes will be released for public consumption, most likey they will not, so this may be the only chance for Burroughs fans to hear them!
The exhibition includes work by Joe Ambrose, Steve Aylett, Alex Baker & Kit Poulson, Lawrence English, The Human Separation, Riccardo Iacono, Anthony Joseph, Cathy Lane, Eduardo Navas, Negativland, o.blaat, Aki Onda, Jörg Piringer, Plastique Fantastique, Simon Ruben White, Giorgio Sadotti, Scanner, Terre Thaemlitz, Thomson & Craighead, Laureana Toledo and Ultra-red, with performances by Ascsoms and Solina Hi-Fi.
Dead Fingers Talk: The Tape Experiments of William S. Burroughs will be at IMT from 28th May – 18th July 2010.
The project is supported by the London College of Communication, CRiSAP and ADi Audiovisual and has been made possible by the kind assistance of the William Burroughs Trust, Riflemaker and the British Library.

It was in 1767, at a barn in Lancaster, Pa., that Martin Boehm and William Otterbein clasped hands and said, "We are brethren." That was our beginning. We will celebrate that event, and the 250 years that followed, in 2017.

Trump's 25 Million Job Promise Is a Demographic Challenge: ChartBy and
Donald Trump is making a big promise. The Republican presidential candidate says he'll create an average of 2.5 million jobs per year over a decade, which would be a challenge given the total number of unemployed is now at 7.8 million. With the baby boom generation retiring, the only way for Trump to reach his jobs target is if he "more than doubles immigration," according to Mark Zandi from Moody's Analytics. That would be a reversal of his current plan to crack down on foreigners, which would actually shrink the pool of available workers.

County Health Rankings & Roadmaps
County Health Rankings & Roadmaps compare the health of nearly all of the 3,000+ counties in the United States to others within its own state, and supports coalitions tackling the myriad social, economic and environmental influences on health.
The annual Rankings provide a revealing snapshot of how health is influenced by where we live, learn, work and play. They provide a starting point for change in communities. That is why we also provide the Roadmaps that provide guidance and tools to understand the data, and strategies that communities can use to move from education to action.
The program is a collaboration between the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and the University of Wisconsin Population Health Institute to measure the progress of building a Culture of Health.

The animosity between the Sydney Swans and GWS Giants wasn't sparked on the field.
It came to life at a high-powered lunch at Circular Quay six years ago, when inaugural Giants coach Kevin Sheedy and former Swans chairman Richard Colless roared at each other in front of the AFL's most senior figures, including chief executive Andrew Demetriou and chairman Mike Fitzpatrick.

"Let's agree to what we're going to fight about in the papers," Sheedy said, according to those in the room.
Colless, the AFL's longest-serving chairman who transformed the Swans into a powerhouse, wasn't having a bar of publicity stunts played out in the media.
"We don't even want you in Sydney," he said, according to those in the room.
Then it was on: two titans of the game passionately ripping into another. Fabulous stuff.
In the end, Fitzpatrick had to calm them down.
The other guests who had a front-row seat this day included Demetriou's deputy and eventual successor, Gillon McLachlan, Swans coach John Longmire and chief executive Andrew Ireland, Giants chairman Tony Shepherd and then chief executive Dale Holmes.
Sheedy confirmed the blow-up when contacted this week ahead of Saturday night's blockbuster between the two clubs at the SCG.
"[Giants chief executive] Dave Matthews called the meeting," Sheedy said. "I looked at Andrew Demetriou and Mike Fitzpatrick and said, 'What's this bullshit? Andrew, let's not play the Swans for five years, because we're only going to give them eight points so they can make the four.
"If he [Colless] doesn't want us in, why should we give them eight easy points?' How many top-four finishes and grand finals did the Swans make in those years when we were just starting out? This was on top of us being called an AFL propaganda hoax. I thought this was the biggest load of rubbish I'd ever heard."
Then Sheedy throws in this line: "Richard didn't appreciate the talent that was looking at him. He didn't realise how good we were."
The anecdote perfectly sums up the angst between the Swans and Giants, whose rivalry is intensifying as GWS edge closer to a maiden flag and Sydney struggles.
On one hand we have the Swans, who shrugged off mediocrity to become the strongest club of any code in the country.
On the other the Giants, who have been parachuted into Western Sydney and funded by head office. Sheedy – an Energizer Bunny when it comes to promoting the game – was the perfect choice as coach. He generated back pages by being, well, Sheeds.
"Kevin's default position is to put on a clown suit, to be fired out of a cannon, to generate publicity," Colless said. "The Swans position was 'no gimmicks'. If we were to be taken seriously, [the] Geoff Edelsten days had to be gone. We've had to be taken seriously as a club, and that was to be respectful of our position in NSW. We had to show humility and convey that we understood the history and culture of sport in this city."
To that end, Colless does not believe rivalry or animosity between the two clubs can be manufactured. He loathes the term "Battle of the Bridge", which positions the Anzac Bridge as the geographical divide between the two clubs.
"There's no question that the fixture has taken on a different complexion because Sydney is respected for its consistency and now you've had this spectacular rise from GWS," he said. "But the Swans have done the heavy lifting with sustained success. 'The Battle of the Bridge' is a stupid term. Big brother, little brother … Who thought of that? In Adelaide, there's deep-seated enmity. That type of rivalry takes time. With Sydney and GWS, I think it's more deep-seated respect."
Our tribute to the changing face of AFL, Western Bulldogs skipper Bob Murphy, over 300 AFL games.
A crowd of about 40,000 is expected for the round five match on Saturday night. It follows the 60,000-plus crowd at ANZ Stadium for last year's qualifying final between the two clubs.
Sydney get four big-name players back but they are eyeballing a possible 0-5 start to the season. There have been whispers around Moore Park all summer that two grand final defeats in three years have left deep scars.
It should be a fascinating game, but Sheedy won't be in attendance because of other commitments in Melbourne.
"But tell the NRL I'll come and help them any time that they need me," he said.
Like almost every conversation I've had with him, I don't know if he was joking.

Tigers' dramas drag on
Bravo, Ivan Cleary, bravo.
The new Wests Tigers coach did what his chief executive should've done months ago: he told off-contract stars Aaron Woods and James Tedesco on Thursday they had 24 hours to make a decision about their futures.
Then Cleary walked over to the gaggle of reporters at training at Concord Oval and told them, too.
Unfortunately, he should've also brought a white flag because it's a sure sign he knows both players are leaving.
Woods is basically a done deal at the Bulldogs. Fans will bag him but consider the fact he's been there for two rebuilds and is now expected to hang around for a third.
Tedesco has been genuinely torn but all roads seem to be leading to the Roosters instead of the Dogs. He's been sounding out Roosters players about joining them next season.
The Roosters are adamant Tedesco won't receive more than a $1 million a season, relying on the selling point of joining a powerful club. They expect a decision in the next day or two.
When the dust settles, can someone explain to me how Tigers chief executive Justin Pascoe and the board keep their jobs after all this?
In less than a year, on their watch, they have: disgracefully shoved favourite son Robbie Farah out the door; sacked coach Jason Taylor after three rounds (he found out from his coaching staff, who found out via Twitter, that he'd been punted); then watched three local juniors in Woods, Tedesco and Mitchell Moses walk out of the club.
Meanwhile, the all-powerful Wests faction that pulls all the levers won't talk publicly about the decisions it is making.
Someone wake me when this is over. It has officially become boring.

True grit
If you ever needed a reminder about the silliness – and importance – of sport, it was there for those of us lucky enough to attend the Ted Larkin Oration dinner at NRL headquarters on Wednesday night.
The oration was delivered by Curtis McGrath, the decorated former sapper who incredibly rebounded from losing both his legs from a mine blast while serving in Afghanistan in 2012 to winning a Paralympic gold medal four years later.
"My legs were gone," McGrath told a silent room. "Everything hurt. My earlobes, my bum, my tongue, my eyes were sore."
Then he uttered these immortal words …
"They loaded me on to a stretcher and as they carried me along, that's when I said, 'You guys will see me at the Paralympics. I'll compete for NZ in the black and white, not the green and gold'. They said, 'We'll drop you here'. They were crying as they were carrying me. That's what I have learnt: this injury wasn't just mine. It belonged to everyone around me, too."
As McGrath waited for a helicopter, his mood changed.
"I didn't think I was going to die until I was sitting there waiting for the helicopter," he said. "That's when I asked one of the lads, 'You need to print off some letters on my laptop to my family, my girlfriend, my friends' [to tell them] that I wasn't coming home."
When McGrath was eventually loaded on to an air force "nurse" headed for Germany a few days later, the enormity of the war in Afghanistan struck him.
"I was the only non-American on the flight, we were all wounded," he said. "This was when I realised this war was so much bigger than I realised. Up the front, there were two guys having surgery on them. They were trying to die on that flight."
McGrath took up the paracanoe and last year, in Rio, won the KL2 200 metres ... wearing the green and gold of Australia.
Still a chance: The Sydney Harbour Bridge could yet host a horse race.
Long shot, but a shot nonetheless
An exclusive story in last Saturday's Sydney Morning Herald about horse racing being held on the Sydney Harbour Bridge was met with scepticism, as tantalising as the prospect of thoroughbreds steaming over the Coathanger might be.
Racing writer Chris Roots revealed Racing NSW is in discussions with a promoter about synthetic turf being laid across the bridge for program consisting of six races of about 1000 metres.
This column made some calls on it and was surprised to learn – not least from a few state politicians – that this might have legs.
It still appears to be a long shot, but don't dismiss it as something a couple of marketing types schemed up over a long lunch at Mr Wong.
We're assured the promoter in question who approached Racing NSW isn't a lightweight, is serious about making it happen, and serious about it happening in Sydney.
Given the width of the bridge, temporary grandstands could be erected at either end so a crowd of 20,000 to 30,000 could watch.
The event wouldn't so much promote racing in NSW as Sydney itself. Images of horse races being held on Australia's most iconic landmark would be shown around the world.
No word yet on which way the horses would run, although it makes sense that they should head north so they don't have to pay the toll.
The week
"He would often do an entire weights session in his undies." – Bernard Foley's enduring memory of Wallabies and Waratahs teammate Drew Mitchell, who has announced his retirement.
In 1967, Kathrine Switzer became the first woman to run in the Boston Marathon. "Get the hell out of my race!" shouted race director Jock Semple as he tried to take her out. On Monday, half a century later and at the age of 70, she again ran in the race and officials retired her bib number in her honour.
Boston Celtics star Isaiah Thomas bravely took to the court in the NBA finals a day after his sister was killed in a car accident, and then knocked down 33 points. Of course, Charles Barkley thought it necessary to say the sight of Thomas crying pre-match was "not a good look". Just wow …
It's a big weekend for … the Western Sydney Wanderers, who meet a Brisbane Roar side that will have revenge on their mind in the A-League quarter-finals at Suncorp Stadium.
It's an even bigger weekend for … Polarisation, the English stayer who won the Sydney Cup two weeks ago and must do it again on Saturday after the first attempt was declared a "no race".

Snowboard Boots
What size Snowboard boots do I buy?
Generally buy the same UK size that you wear in trainers.
A good fitting snowboard boot should be a snug fit with your toes just touching the end of the liner and without them being crushed. It may seem strange at first having your toes touch the end as most people tend to buy their everyday shoes bigger rather than smaller but the boot liner will give quite a bit with use and the liner WILL stretch 5mm (half a shoe size!) over time.
The boot should fit snugly around your achilles and holding your heel firmly down in the boot. This eliminates heel lift which can ruin your riding. A bit of movement is fine but if you can lift your heel more than 1.5cm then you either need to re-tighten them or try another fit. Don't forget to try boots on wearing your snowboard socks as these are generally thicker than normal ones.
Most boot liners these days are heat mouldable which means that as your foot heats up it heats up the liner and it gradually moulds to the shape of your foot giving you a custom fit. So don't be afraid to wear your new boots around the house as you'll reap the rewards when you get on snow with them by cutting down the 'bedding in' time.
Ideally you are looking for a 'close fit' to avoid the boot being sloppy after use.

JUST THE FACTS: The Alberta Energy Dividend
After releasing the Energy Dividend Pledge, Ms. Redford and some commentators have made statements and raised questions about the Dividend which have already been answered in the Pledge document, which can be found at www.wildrose.ca/pledge. Here are the facts: Claim: In response to the Alberta Energy Dividend Redford said: "The question must be asked. If there are these daily announcements without understanding or being prepared to explain the overall framework, where do we end up losing?"
(http://www.edmontonjournal.com/news/canada/Smith+pledges+Ralph+Bucks+style+royalty+rebates/6398163/story.html) FACT: The "overall framework" is clearly presented in our first Balanced Budget Pledge: www.wildrose.ca/pledge. Perhaps the Redford should evaluate our positions before misrepresenting them publicly. FACT: As surpluses grow due to spending restraint, 50% of surplus will go to restoring our Heritage Fund, 20% to Albertans through the Alberta Energy Dividend, and 10% to municipalities. Claim: The Alberta Energy Dividend will make it harder to balance the budget. FACT: Just the opposite. Funds will only be distributed to the Energy Dividend after the budget is balanced. Once the budget is balanced 20% of all surplus funds will be put towards the Dividend. This will ensure future governments will not be tempted to spend surplus revenues on corporate welfare and other pet projects like the PC $2 billion carbon capture boondoggle. Claim: The Wildrose plan puts health and education funding at risk. FACT: The Wildrose Balanced Budget and Savings Act prioritizes funding on hiring more front-line employees such as nurses, teachers, and special needs assistants. Funding for the Alberta Energy Dividend will only be directed from 20% of provincial surpluses. FACT: The Wildrose Balanced Budget and Savings Act prioritizes funding on hiring more front-line employees such as nurses, teachers, and special needs assistants. Wildrose proposes increases to operational spending every year, and health and education will always be the priority. Funding for the Alberta Energy Dividend will only be directed from 20% of provincial surpluses - it will not affect annual program spending at all. Question: Why not lower taxes rather than pay out dividends? Fact: The Wildrose is the only party to make an unconditional commitment not to raise taxes. Tax cuts are also a long-term Wildrose goal. That said, because our resource revenues are volatile, tax cuts are not feasible in the short term because they make us susceptible to budget shortfalls in years when royalties decline. Dividends are a more responsible way to give back to Albertans until we have secured the kind of reliable surpluses that make tax cuts reasonable, particularly once our Heritage Fund is large enough that its annual returns are big enough to replace royalties.

Sleekback racing beetles were raced in Ferengi culture, often in high stakes competitions. The richest of these races was the Latinum Mandible.
Famed wooly slug herder Nix long had a passion for Sleekback racing beetles, and began breeding them after resigning from his career as a slugboy. His two finest beetles were named "Wisdom" and "Luck". (DS9 reference: Legends of the Ferengi)

Isco, David Silva to miss Spain's friendly against Chile
Chile play Spain in a friendly meant to prepare them for their respective regional qualifying tournaments. So far, Chile, led by coach Jorge Sampaoli, have at least secured a place in the playoffs for a ticket to the 2014 Brazil World Cup.
Isco and David Silva will miss Spain's football friendly with Chile in Geneva on Tuesday because of injuries.
Real Madrid's Isco sustained an ankle problem in training ahead of Spain's 2-0 win over Finland in a World Cup qualifier on Friday night while Manchester City's Silva picked up a slight muscular injury while training on Sunday.
Chile's captain and goalkeeper Claudio Bravo said the time has come to defeat a rival as high-ranked as Spain in their upcoming match in Geneva.
"It's the right time to face off against the world champions. I hope we can do it. It's time to defeat such a high-ranking rival. I hope (the match) helps us to grow and to find out where we place. We are very eager to win," Bravo said Monday, reports Xinhua.
Bravo, who plays for Spain's Real Sociedad, indicated his team was more confident than ever.
"We believe a lot more in our team and we feel we have a different degree of respect in comparison with what we had a few games ago. Teams face us in a different way and that makes you grow and work in a different way," said Bravo.
Chile play Spain in a friendly meant to prepare them for their respective regional qualifying tournaments. So far, Chile, led by coach Jorge Sampaoli, have at least secured a place in the playoffs for a ticket to the 2014 Brazil World Cup.
Argentina lead the South American tournament with 26 points, followed by Colombia (26), Chile (24), Ecuador (21), Uruguay (19), Venezuela (16), Peru (14), Paraguay (11) and Bolivia (10). The first four teams will automatically advance and the fifth-ranked team will go to playoffs against an Asian team for a chance to play in Brazil.
Bravo said his dream now is to qualify as soon as possible for Brazil.
"You always have dreams and goals to attain. Our next one is to qualify as soon as possible for the World Cup. We are very close and we depend on our game and our results," said Bravo.
The captain also referred to upcoming qualifying matches against Colombia and Ecuador in October.
"All the games are very tough, you are always risking something. The good thing is that we depend on us, we're not afraid or complexed or anything; we are doing things right. We hope everything turns out well and we secure the qualification as soon as possible and not have to wait until the last moment," he said.

(Reuters) - A proposed referendum that would enshrine the right to collective bargaining in the Michigan state constitution is too complicated for the ballot, the state's top legal official said, dealing a major blow to the labor movement's campaign for the measure.
Attorney General Bill Schuette, a Republican, said in a legal analysis obtained by the Detroit Free Press and published on Friday that Michigan ballot measures are limited to 100 words and the implications of the proposed measure are so numerous that it would be impossible to communicate them.
"Just to give a single word to each constitutional and statutory alteration would require double the allowable words," Schuette wrote.
A coalition of unions, supporters of the "Protect Our Jobs" measure, submitted petitions with nearly 700,000 signatures, twice the number needed, to get the measure on the ballot. Petition challenges must be filed by the close of business August 8, and a decision whether to place it before voters by a state election board is expected by mid-August.
The coalition includes the AFL-CIO, the United Auto Workers and the Michigan Education Association.
In an analysis prepared at Governor Rick Snyder's request and dated July 20, Schuette said the proposed referendum could limit or eliminate parts of 18 provisions in the state constitution and 170 state laws, and raises fundamental questions about the future control of private and public employment in Michigan.
In addition to publishing the analysis, The Free Press posted a copy on its website. Representatives of the governor and attorney general did not immediately respond to inquiries.
The union organizers responded quickly Friday. "Silencing the voice of all voters on the basis of a faulty legal argument defies the spirit of democracy and protections offered to citizens by our constitution," Dan Lijana, spokesman for the petition organizers, said in a statement.
Only a handful of states, including Florida and Missouri, protect union activity such as collective bargaining in state constitutions, while 23 states have "right to work" laws that bar employers from requiring workers to pay fees for union representation.
Earlier in 2012, Indiana became the latest state to adopt a "right to work" law and the first in the industrial Midwest.
Unions also suffered a setback in Wisconsin earlier this summer when Republican Governor Scott Walker survived a recall election prompted by a new state law he championed that severely reduced the power of public-sector unions such as teachers.
The Michigan ballot measure would cripple efforts to pass a "right to work" law in the state, which has been hit hard by the decades-long struggles of Detroit-based automakers.
Critics say the Michigan measure would discourage businesses from bringing new jobs to the state and encourage some to leave. Experts say the proposal likely would increase voter turnout in the fall presidential election.
Schuette, who was elected attorney general in 2010, served three terms as a U.S. Representative, eight years as a state senator and six years as a state appellate judge.
The United Auto Workers union is a significant, though diminished, political force in Michigan following the auto companies' reduction in employment.
Unions also are asking Michigan voters to repeal a law that widened the powers of state-appointed emergency managers to cut spending in municipalities and school districts deemed to be experiencing a "financial emergency." Such spending cuts have resulted in the loss of union jobs such as teachers, police officers and firefighters.
The Michigan Supreme Court on Friday ruled that the emergency manager law repeal question should be on the ballot.
That law has been used to take over more than half a dozen financially ailing cities and school systems in the state in recent years and to void union contracts.

Over the years, Washington Redskins owner Daniel Snyder has preferred to let splashy offseason acquisitions — with decidedly mixed results — speak for him publicly.
When Snyder does speak out, he usually is to the point, and so it was this past weekend after an event in Washington.
Snyder is pleased with the progress and approach of new coach Mike Shanahan and new general manager Bruce Allen.
But when the subject turns to standout defensive lineman Albert Haynesworth, a no-show at two recent voluntary minicamps despite a deal last season that put $32 million in the player's pocket, Snyder is clear.
He's not happy.
"I'm disappointed he's not here — absolutely," Snyder told news reporters. "We're expecting our players to lead by example, and we're expecting our players to understand that they're Redskins and they need to be here."
Shanahan has expressed similar sentiments but also has pointed out that Haynesworth — who has indicated he's not thrilled about his role in the 3-4 defensive alignment — could help himself and the team by showing up.
As it is, one of the league's most dominant defensive forces has told team officials he's working out with personal trainers at his Nashville home and he will be on hand for next month's mandatory minicamp.
On other fronts, though, Snyder is upbeat.
He seems particularly pleased about quarterback Donovan McNabb, the longtime Philadelphia Eagle for whom the Redskins traded last month.
"It's his leadership ability that stands out with me," Snyder said, adding he prefers to keep private the team's possible intentions of extending McNabb's contract.
And overall, under the new regime of Allen and Shanahan, Snyder said things feel different but adds that's a good thing.
"I'm having a lot of fun," he said. "These guys are incredible."
Texans adjust: Houston Texans coach Gary Kubiak has no choice but to proceed with the shaping of his team minus one important cog: linebacker Brian Cushing, who will miss the first four games of the regular season after testing positive for performance-enhancing drugs banned by the NFL.
"It affects the football team a great deal," Kubiak says. "He's a huge piece of the puzzle. We're sitting here all offseason getting ready to go, and now we've got to do some adjusting. So I'm very disappointed ... but we've got to move forward, and we will."
Welker on mend: New England Patriots wide receiver Wes Welker said he injured two knee ligaments last season but only one required surgery.
The NFL receptions leader said over the weekend that the anterior cruciate and medial collateral ligaments in his left knee were injured during the final regular-season game. Welker, who missed the playoffs, said the MCL didn't require surgery and "if you have that healing on its own, it almost becomes stronger."
"We just had to wait for it to heal," Welker said. "We didn't have to do surgery on it."
Welker wasn't certain when he would return to the field but said the fact he didn't need surgery on the MCL was great news.

For more than a century it was an institution in City social circles, the unofficial boardroom of the financial community, and as quintessentially English as public schools and cream teas at a cricket ground. Throgmorton's was the flagship restaurant of J. Lyons & Co, the teashop proprietors, and cost the princely sum of £30,000 when it opened back in 1900.
Recent winds of change blew unfavourably on this venerable grande dame - it closed in 2002, a time when the new generation of City workers began to eschew traditional haunts in favour of speedy lunches at modern watering holes. Two years later and it has undergone a bit of a facelift and reopened under new ownership, so I tripped over to see how it is being received.
Much of the unrestrained elegance in the design remains, with a lush, shimmering gold mosaic-tiled staircase leading you down into the bowels of the building.
Here you'll find the Long Room, a long and narrow dining hall which
could be a copy of an Orient Express railway carriage, the Long Bar, a smartly accoutered drinking salon bookable for private parties, the Mosaic Room cocktail bar, a welcoming, oakpanelled drawing room which is the main drinking area, and the similarly panelled Oak Room sports bar, where you'll find a couple of pool tables, a table football game and plasma TV screens that show all major (and minor) sporting events.
When I finally catch the attention of one of the team of lugubrious (mostly Antipodean) staff, I choose a bottle of 2003 Domaine Thomas Beaujolais Villages red wine (£14.60). 'Try it chilled,' the menu suggests. I say I will. 'Sorry mate,' says Lurch (not his real name), they're all warm. No worries, I say, joining in with the lingo, I'll take it as it comes. Lurch uncorks the bottle: 'You wanna try a slug first mate?'
On paper, this is a place I could burrow away and hide in for days on end without surfacing, but the drinks list - pedestrian lager brands and an unimaginative range of spirits - will probably not attract back the discerning City topers who once frequented this place.
The suited clientele of today - more likely to be photocopying machine repair men than high-flying City executives - seem happy enough here, though. Perhaps this is because the food - platters of charcuterie, Neal's Yard cheeses, sandwiches (from the ground-floor deli) and wholesome English grills --is so good and hearty.
Throgmorton's is a splendid venue, offering so much to so many, yet too few were taking advantage of its offer on either of my two visits. Next time I'm in the City and in need of a game of pool or to watch a footie match, though, this is the place for an unpretentious evening at play.

|Battle of the Rolling Waves
|Location: Unknown
|Date: Unknown
| Major Forces: Mantis Clan,
Crab Clan
|Generals: Nakano
|Battles of Rokugan
The story of the Battle of the Rolling Waves begins several years before the battle itself when a Mantis Clansman named Nakano was betrayed by a group of Yasuki Merchants for breaking off trade negotiations with them. Nakano roamed the seas as a ronin for several years, until he confronted the Yasuki. In the ensuing battle, all of the Yasuki who had betrayed him and his crew were killed.
Prologue Edit
A bushi of the Mantis Clan named Nakano was placed in charge of trade arrangements between his clan and the Yasuki traders of the Crab Clan. The transactions involved dealing with illegal artifacts from the Ivory Kingdoms. Nakano was an honorable man and he felt distaste for disobeying the edict that the Emperor put forth regulating the trade of such items.
Nakano arrived at the trade site and refused to do business when the Yasuki demanded a higher price than originally agreed. Returning to his ship, he found it occupied by magistrates. He admitted guilt to everything to keep the dishonor from reaching his lord. He was stripped of his name and clan but found a way to escape with his crew before execution.
The Battle Edit
Nakano returned years later in a suprise assault against the Yasuki traders who had betrayed him. The Yasuki were caught completely by suprise and were unable to fight back. Though outnumbered, Nakano's forces were victorious and sank all the Yasuki ships except their leader's vessel. The one man who was spared was the merchant who had betrayed Nakano.
Nakano strapped the merchant to the mast of his ship and sent it sailing straight into the maw of the Great Sea Spider. Nakano now roved across the sea, saving ships from pirates and is secretly considered a hero of the Mantis. He died peacefully in his sleep in his secret hideout in the Mantis Islands.

One of the three Primal Deities who created the universe. A crude translation of his name is Life of the World. Seen as the brother of Ashra. This is thought to represent the fact that these two ancient deities combine to create life and to oppose Elim. It is thought that along with Ashra, he created the first families of the younger Gods.
The peoples of northern Allansia once worshipped Ashra and Vuh in abundance before the War of the Wizards. Now their worship is limited to a few isolated settlements in the very far north.
The Shroud of Vuh is a powerful ancient artefact. The shroud will kill a servant of Elim with a touch, but will not have this affect on followers of the younger Dark Gods. The shroud's inherent power is that it reverses the physical effects of a spell cast on its wearer by a follower of Elim. Thus, as an example, the damage a magical Firebolt would have inflicted will be reversed and in fact will heal the wearer by a proportionate amount to the strength of the bolt.
