Amazon has rolled out high-performance virtual cloud computing services mated to its speedy new flash-based storage with its new High I/O Instance offering, taking cloud computing up a notch (some would say to 11.)
Amazon CTO Werner Vogels wrote in a blog post late last week:
AWS customers are bringing their most demanding workloads onto the cloud. These include the likes of high performance computation, for which we introduced the Cluster Compute and Cluster GPU instance types. Customers are also bringing workloads on AWS that require dedicated and high performance IO for which we are now introducing a new Amazon EC2 instance type, the High I/O Quadruple Extra Large (hi1.4xlarge), to meet their needs.
The hi1.4xlarge has 8 cores and 60.5GB of memory. Most importantly it has 2 SSDs of 1 TB each and a 10 Gb/s Ethernet NIC that using placement groups can be directly connected to other High I/O instances.
The SSDs will give you very high IO performance: for 4k random reads you can get 120,000 IOPS when using PV and 90,000 when using HVM or Windows. Write performance on SSDs is more variable depending on, among other things, the free space the disk, the fragmentation and the type of filesystem. With PV virtualization we are seeing between 10,000 and 85,000 IOPS for 4k random writes and with HVM between 9,000 and 75,000.
A key benefactor of High I/O: Databases, says Vogels, because of the opportunity for scaling.
Earlier this year I attended a panel on "Scaling to Infinity" with the top engineers from Netflix, Facebook, Tumblr, etc. In unison they proclaimed that in all of their systems the scaling bottleneck had been the database. These bottlenecks can often be attributed to constraints in the I/O system and the challenges of providing consistent I/O performance in systems that have not been designed for high performance I/O. The fast growing popularity of Amazon DynamoDB, which provides consistent read/write performance through an I/O provisioning interface, demonstrates that if the database can be configured such that it no longer is a bottleneck, applications can become much simple, and thus more reliable and scalable.
Netflix was one happy Amazon Web Services customer with regard to Amazon moving to SSDs, and it said of High I/O: "The ability to leverage SSD-backed instances, which provide tens of thousands of I/Os per second, will significantly increase the performance of our Cassandra clusters and overall service capability," Netflix's Adrian Cockcroft said in a press release last week.
High I/O is available as a service from Amazon's northern Virginia data center, as well as from Dublin, Ireland. Cost from Virginia: $3.10 an hour; Dublin: $3.41. More locations will be available later this year, Amazon said. But the additional cost is justified for the right application, Vogels writes. "Even though SSDs are still more expensive from a storage point of view they are a much more cost effective solution from an iops point of view."
Tal Broda writes in the comments section of Vogels' post, "We are very excited about what this can do for real time analytics… Thank you from your friends at SOASTA! :)"
What will Amazon High I/O Instance do for you? In the future, will High I/O just be the norm… In other words, will all amps go up to 11?Go Back to Top. Skip To: Start of Article.

30-Year Mortgage Rate Slips For Second Straight Week, To 4.31%
The recent settling-down of Treasury rates is playing out in the mortgage market, as the average 30-year fixed-rate mortgage rate slipped lower for a second straight week, to 4.31% from 4.37% a week earlier, per Freddie Mac's (FMCC) latest weekly Primary Mortgage Market Survey, down from a two-year high 4.51% two weeks ago. That rate is still up nearly a full percentage point from 3.35% in early May, which nearly matched the all-time low of 3.31% seen last November. The average 15-year fixed-rate mortgage rate also fell to 3.39% from 3.41% a week earlier, up from an all-time low 2.56% in early May.
A similar 30-year mortgage rate measured by the Mortgage Bankers Association's weekly survey fell to 4.58% from 4.68% a week earlier. That survey also showed mortgage applications dropped by 1.2% last week.

Topic: Mom is now in Hospice care
My mom is now in home hospice care, she was transferred to the hospice house two weeks because her pain was so bad, they believe she has a small bowel obstruction. They wanted to keep her a while but she wanted to go home so we brought her home last Tuesday. She eats next to nothing , maybe 1 cracker all day and drinks very little. friday night she started projectile vomiting and stays nauseated. She seems disoriented and I'm scared. Could it be she is being over medicated or is it most likely the cancer? I'm so worried , I don't know what to look for in the end stages, can someone please let me know their experiences ?

i'm new to this forum and have had two of my topics locked. one i appreciated as it was turning into something negative instead of just a discussion. it would be nice if it could just be deleted. the other was just a topic about violence and when and if it's ever ok to fight back from a buddhist standpoint and it turned into something more along the lines of whether or not using weapons for target practice was violent. it was locked and no reason was given. are topics locked when they get boring? that seems unfair to people who are still talking on them. i could see locking them when they are inappropriate or cease to make sense but just because someone's opinion is that they are not interesting any more?
also it would be nice to be able to delete a posting. why can't you delete your own posting?

Yes! Yes! Yes! The Raw Review (#YYYTRR)
by, 01-29-2013 at 02:55 PM (3202 Views)
Anybody who happens to follow me on Twitter (probably after seeing me plug my account on a weekly basis) will know I was far from happy at the way this past Sunday's Royal Rumble pay-per-view ended. It was a great PPV, I refuse to take that away from it since every match was good and the Royal Rumble match was awesome, but it did far too much to set the main event of WrestleMania XXIX in stone. We're all now pretty certain we're getting Rock vs. Cena II come April, and more disappointing is that The Rock ended CM Punk's 434 day WWE Championship reign (rather than having someone progressive who plans to stick around for more than three months dethrone Punk). All in all, Royal Rumble got a huge reaction from the WWE Universe (that reaction being "what the hell is wrong with your creative team!?") and we headed into Raw hopeful that the road to WrestleMania would at least start with a bang…
Unfortunately Raw Roulette was the first stop on the road to WrestleMania this year, and it delivered exactly what it does every time.
We got gimmick segments, Vince McMahon's corny 'comedy', and very few matches. The only things which kept me awake were CM Punk's mental breakdown (how WWE didn't show #PhoenixScrewjob trending is beyond me), Brock Lesnar's underwhelming return, and seeing Chris Jericho back on Raw.
Opportunity knocks, but WWE ignores it
You would think that after a PPV which caused such a huge reaction from its fan base WWE would have used that momentum to deliver a Monday Night Raw to keep people talking, but last night they seemed completely oblivious to everything they accomplished on Sunday.
I'm not talking about John Cena's Royal Rumble win or The Rock's dethroning of CM Punk here (although the thought of WWE taking a main event rematch that almost nobody wants to see to a big WWE city like New York is intriguing since both Rock and Cena received a vast amount of jeers from the Las Vegas crowd last night as it was – they need to add Punk to that match in order to have a fan favourite on the night). Rather, I am talking about the possibilities that were thrown up by the Royal Rumble match itself. The return of Chris Jericho, Goldust and Cody Rhodes facing off, Bo Dallas' impressive performance in his first Rumble, and many other moments provided WWE with seemingly endless possibilities in building towards, at the very least, Elimination Chamber.
In fact, of the moments I mentioned WWE only really recognised one of them effectively – Bo Dallas' elimination of Wade Barrett could, and should, lead to Dallas' first Intercontinental Championship. Other than this we were given Dolph Ziggler and Chris Jericho teaming up again (this rivalry was initially started by the same stipulation), and not much else – although I do have high hopes for Jericho vs. Ziggler at WrestleMania should it happen.
It is the fact that WWE has so many options that threw me last night. Instead of riding the wave of momentum that they caused on Sunday they ignored it and gave us a throwaway show similar to that of their last visit to the UK. I'm going out on a limb here, but I'm willing to bet that the Vegas crowd would have much preferred to see the start of either the split of Team Hell No or a Randy Orton vs. Sheamus rivalry instead of Tensai and Brodus Clay dancing.
My point is that WWE seems to have intentionally set the bar exceptionally low heading into Elimination Chamber. They now have two and a half weeks to build a semi-meaningful card for the final stop on the road to WrestleMania, and it looks like it's going to be a bumpy and tedious ride for us fans.
To give WWE some credit, last night could just be a one-off given that they think we enjoy these gimmick shows, but if it isn't WWE has dug itself into a rather large hole. With The Rock vs. John Cena pretty much set in stone, they need to build the card around another match now that many fans have shown disgust at the choice to, in my mind, undo everything CM Punk did for the WWE Championship and its relevance by booking a predictable main event for WrestleMania.
Off the top of my head I can think of maybe one or two matches that would serve better as the main event, but I'll put it as simply as saying that any combination of CM Punk, Daniel Bryan, Chris Jericho and Dolph Ziggler would sell WrestleMania to me.
As a point of comparison, my all-time favourite WrestleMania match is Chris Jericho vs. Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania XIX, and that is followed closely by Jericho and Punk's encounter last year. The similarity between the two, other than the involvement of Jericho, is that they were both well-developed rivalries which had the promise of a great technical match. They both stole the show at their respective WrestleMania's (although Hell in a Cell at XXVIII was amazing I consider Punk vs. Jericho the match I wanted to see) because they had both elements.
It is for this reason that I think WWE is heading in the wrong direction by having Rock vs. Cena II as a WWE Championship match after what Punk has done in the past eighteen months. Last year's Rock vs. Cena match was a terribly built match because of The Rock's limited dates and Cena's inability to get the crowd behind him, but the major reason it fell short to me and many others was because there was no indication that we would be getting a great wrestling match. It was given the main event spot purely for its similarities to Hollywood Hogan vs. The Rock at 'Mania X-8, a match that I personally loved because I was a huge Rock fan at the time. That match delivered because the crowd loved it and it was all about bragging rights and passing the torch. Rock vs. Cena last year was far below that standard and hype, and a rematch involving the WWE Championship indicates that Punk's title reign was for nothing because we will see the landscape of WWE return to the same as it was before Punk's infamous 2011 pipe bomb.
What this WrestleMania needs in order to preserve everything Punk did for the WWE Championship and the revolution he began is a main event which has the silver lining of a great technical match built on the foundation of a heated rivalry. I just hope WWE can find that match before the entire build of WrestleMania relies on Rock vs. Cena II.
Raw Results
Randy Orton pinned United States Champion Antonio Cesaro following an RKO with The Miz as Special Guest Referee; despite my negativity toward this week's Raw, this match was a good start. It's just a shame that Orton's heel turn looks no closer to happening.
Ryback def. The Prime Time Players in a Make Me Laugh challenge; this was the first of many pointless segments.
Bo Dallas pinned Intercontinental Champion Wade Barrett in a Players Choice match following a Belly-to-Belly Suplex; the smartest match of the night. Dallas looks set to gain a title during WrestleMania season, and Barrett can then turn his sights onto the main event spot he has long deserved.
John Cena pinned Cody Rhodes following an Attitude Adjustment – The Shield attacked Cena, Sheamus & Ryback; Rhodes was right when he said he was better than this match, but the real spotlight belongs on The Shield for asserting their dominance over Cena, Sheamus & Ryback. They looked strong and should continue to do so.
Brodus Clay and Tensai competed in a Dance-Off; pointless segment #2.
World Heavyweight Champion Alberto Del Rio vs. Big Show in a Body Slam challenge ended in a No Contest after chaos ensued; this started out well and then became far too tedious because of how long it actually was.
Divas Champion Kaitlyn vs. Tamina Snuka ended in a No Contest after the match's Lumberjills flooded the ring; a new low point for the divas, they couldn't even finish their two minute match.
Sheamus def. Damien Sandow in a Tables match; the third real match of the night, and the second good one. A rivalry between the two would be both pointless and leave me disinterested though.
3MB crashed Zack Ryder vs. The Great Khali w/ Natalya & Hornswoggle in a Karaoke challenge; I've never been so happy to see 3MB, and Natalya is truly wasted in WWE.
Chris Jericho walked out on Dolph Ziggler resulting in Team Hell No picking up the victory in a Strange Bedfellows match; a Submission match would have been a much better match for the impending resumption of this rivalry, perhaps at WrestleMania?
As you can tell, I was far from thrilled with Raw this week. It had so much potential but was ultimately tarnished by a series of pointless segments and the apparent power John Cena has in booking matches for Elimination Chamber (no wonder Vickie was just the hostess for the evening).
If you really look at the happenings of last night there are some things to take away from it in the form a rematch between CM Punk and The Rock, Brock Lesnar's (I still maintain underwhelming and predictable) return, and the fact that Jericho is back and he and Dolph could put on the show-stealer at WrestleMania.
Sadly the bad outweighed the good last night, but I'll remain as optimistic as ever and hope for a huge improvement come next week and the settling of my Rumble disappointment.
I'll leave you with this question; what is your favourite WrestleMania match of all-time, and who would you book as the main event for 'Mania XXIV?

The Collector's market here on July 1 had only two items that really interested me. This was one of them. I just love the turned lip and those bubbles/blister! It was designed by Kaj Franck for the Nuutajärvi Notsjö factory in 1966 and was in production until 1980. It was produced in green, clear, rosé, brown or green 'rakkolasia' or 'blister glass' . Sargasso was a range that included glass vases, bowls, jugs, bottles, baskets and a mug. It is signed Nuutajärvi in script on the deeply ground pontil.
This vase is 11 cm high.
It still retains the Arabia sticker.
"Finnish Nuutajärvi was established in 1793, ... Kaj Franck was appointed chief designer for Nuutajärvi in 1950 as part of his duties at Arabia, Nuutajärvi and Arabia were both owned by the industrial concern Wärtsilä."

Hello everyone,
Being mindful of my thoughts I realized that I have a lot of angry thoughts many times a day.
I tend to be quickly upset/irritated by small/stupid things (people walking to slowly in front of me,co-workers making mistakes, etc.). It seems I'm lacking patience.
I almost always keeps these thoughts for me, so basically I'm the only one suffering from it.
When I see irritated thoughts appear, I try to brush them away, or replace them by something positive. Sometimes it works, sometimes it does not.
What I would really like to do is prevent these angry thoughts from arising.
Meditating has been helping a lot because after a sitting my mind is very calm for some time, but it does not last until the end of the day.
What can I do?
Thank you for reading me.

Kimi Räikkönen and Romain Grosjean both reach the podium at the Hungarian Grand Prix and challenged Lewis Hamilton for victory throughout. It was Lotus's second double-podium of the year, the drivers having finished the same way round in Bahrain.
Kimi started fifth and lost a place to championship leader Fernando Alonso, forcing him to lap behind the Ferrari for his first stint and conserve his tyres. He had a problem with his KERS, which failed at the start of the race and only later returned at 50 percent power. Team-mate Romain, who started P2, was the one putting the initial pressure on Hamilton before pitting on Lap 19 and losing a second during his stop due to a slow rear tyre fit.
Räikkönen profited as the pitstops shook out and rose to P4 on a long 26-lap stint on soft tyres before re-pitting for mediums on Lap 46, six laps after Grosjean and five after Hamilton, and preparing for a final hard charge. The Finn exited the pits just as Romain, who had been held up by a backmarker, came screaming down the main straight, causing their engineers to sweat as they went through Turn 1 side-by-side and Räikkönen forced Grosjean wide in order to steal the racing line and hunt Hamilton.
He was soon within a second of the Englishman, but the McLaren driver was able to eek out faster third sectors, protecting himself down the main straight. There were no other opportunities for the Lotus to pass. Grosjean held on to third ahead of Vettel, who made a third pitstop without losing a place and charged back to attack the Lotus on fresh softs, to no avail.
Kimi Räikkönen : "We came second and it's not enough, but McLaren had very good speed. It's very difficult to overtake here, and Lewis was pulling away on the straight. My only chance was if he ran out of tyres. We had a lot of speed but we just couldn't use it. Nevertheless, a double podium is good for the championship and I'll take second place. We keep making it very hard for ourselves in qualifying. But it's a long season and they'll probably be another time. I've been long enough in the business that I don't worry about it too much."
Romain Grosjean: We were fighting for the win throughout the race, and it's a fantastic result after such a difficult race in Germany. It didn't go all my way though. Our first pitstop was a disaster, and then I got stuck behind another car and lost 1.5 seconds, which meant Kimi was able to get ahead. He did what he had to do and pushed me to the outside. It's a good result for the team but to be honest I'm a bit disappointed. I think we were really close to winning here."
Lotus legend and double world champion Emerson Fittipaldi looks back on last weekend's Hungarian Grand Prix, where Lotus got two cars on the podium…
In Hungary, Lotus scored its first double F1 podium since Bahrain. How important was this result going into the Summer break?
It takes Lotus even closer to winning a grand prix. Expectations at the Belgian Grand Prix, in a month's time, will be high. Kimi Räikkönen is particularly fast at Spa-Francorchamps, so it's going to be really interesting to watch.
Kimi put an aggressive move on Romain Grosjean to seize second place as he came out of the pits. Do you think it was overly risky, given that they're team-mates?
No, I think it was a great move, well executed, and it didn't put either Lotus at risk unnecessarily.
Romain was disappointed not to challenge for the win at the end. Do you think he should be happy with third?
Racing drivers should never be happy until they finish first. We can never be satisfied with third, but its still a good result and he can take consolation in the fact that the car is getting better and better and can challenge for the win. I think we'll see him on the top step soon enough. Romain is driving very well.
Both Lotuses looked quicker than Lewis Hamilton's McLaren. What could they have done differently to leapfrog him?
Nothing. I think the strategy was perfect and towards the end the tyres were bad for everyone. It was great to see Lotus in there challenging for the win.
Are you frustrated that Lotus seem to have a car fast enough to win multiple races, yet still haven't done the business?
The Lotus E20 has been the most consistent Formula One car this year so far, so I'm confident that once it starts winning it will keep on winning. There should be no frustration at all, winning is part of a process. I'm a good friend of Lotus's team principal Eric Boullier and I am very happy to see him taking the team in such a solid direction.

The Wickedest Googly Ever
One of the greatest statistical achievements in sports history just took place, even if that's news to most U.S. fans. The Sports Retort explains it all with the help of our resident NFL-loving Brit, Jonathan Clegg. This represents the first time the word "mullygrubber" has been used on the show.
With Clegg in residence, we discuss Britain's sudden sports ascendance, and push him for a candid answer on whether the average Englishman would have preferred Tim Henman to win Wimbledon before Scot Andy Murray. He also explains why he walked the length of Manhattan looking at basketball courts. We ponder why on earth there's a climbing wall in Milwaukee's Miller Park and whether archery and cricket fans can co-exist.

LOVED ones will come together tomorrow to remember a fallen firefighter killed a year ago.
On July 13 last year, a fire broke out at Paul's Hair World in Manchester city centre, and Stephen Hunt, of New Road, Radcliffe, died in hospital after getting into difficulty tackling the blaze.
The 38-year-old father of two and former soldier was based at Manchester's Philips Park Fire Station and was fighting the fire with about 60 colleagues.
An investigation into the incident is ongoing.
Friends and family are set to gather at St Ann's Church in Manchester at 2pm for a special hour-long service in his honour.
Members of the public are welcome to join them, though space in the church is expected to be tight and there is a plan to broadcast the service into the square outside.
County Fire Officer Steve McGuirk was at the scene of the fire in May for a ceremony in which a plaque was unveiled paying tribute to Mr Hunt.
Mr McGuirk said: "The support we have received from the people of Greater Manchester since Stephen's death has been overwhelming.
"Stephen died protecting the community he loved and we would like to invite the public to join us in remembrance this Sunday."

ST. JOHNS COUNTY, Fla. - Good news for a local community: Developers reported 2012 was their best sales year yet.
It was a long time coming for the master planned community of Nocatee in St. Johns County. It broke ground eight years ago, and the recession put a major halt on development.
But the good news coming out of the project this week is that the community is doing better than ever.
Cranes moving and construction workers on the job is a sign the homebuilding market continues to work its way back.
"We just finished our best year," managing partner of Parc Group Rick Ray said. "We had over 500 new home sales in 2012, compared to a little over 300 in 2011."
Ray is a managing partner for the company developing Nocatee in St. Johns County.
The master planned community broke ground in 2005. A couple years later, development was halted as the economy took a dive.
"It slowed it down considerably, partially because in 2005 and 2006, the market was exceptionally hot," Ray said. "So we went from a very, very hot market to a very slow market."
After several challenging years, developers are reporting tremendous growth.
There were 508 new homes sold in Nocatee in 2012, a 62-percent increase over 2011 and nearly three times more than 2010.
"We're seeing about 40 percent of the population is relocation, people who are coming in from out of places," Ray said. "It could be out of the five-county area, so about 60 percent of the growth is people relocating within the Jacksonville area."
There are four new neighborhoods being built within Nocatee, some within walking distance to the eventual Town Center; others are lakefront.
Most homes are energy efficient, all perks Nocatee boasts.
"The amenities are here, so those that live in Nocatee, they can come home, park their car, get in their golf cart," Ray said. "Outdoor enthusiasts have everything from the Intracoastal Waterway to an unparalleled water park green-way trail system."

Against stiff competition from a variety of legendary Lotus cars, including 2-11, 340R, Exige S, and Exige Cup, the new V6 has proven that it has the track driving and handling capabilities to back up the stunning V6 powertrain; by winning consecutive Cup races, it becomes the benchmark for Lotus Cars on track.
The new Lotus Exige Cup V6 has already stormed to victory in the Lotus Cup UK inaugural race at Snetterton at the beginning of April and once again last weekend during the Lotus Cup Europe opener at the Nurburgring. The Exige Cup V6 is bred solely for racing, remaining true to Lotus genealogy; and is distinctly recognisable as offspring of the award-winning Exige S.
Powered by a 3.5 litre supercharged V6 engine driving through a 6-speed sequential gearbox, performance is impressive, with the Exige V6 Cup delivering a scorching 100km/hr (60mph) in 3.8seconds. That's around 0.5secs/km quicker than the ever-popular Exige S. Lotus is about lightness, and with the V6 cup weighs at a featherlike, 1080kg.
With a great exterior, the car is visually compelling with bespoke livery courtesy of the skilled team at Lotus Design. Mouth wateringly muscular and ready to battle on track, it's little wonder this car making waves in the Lotus Cup enthusiast series.
The Exige V6 Cup is available to drive at dealers. FIND YOUR NEAREST DEALER TO BOOK YOUR EXIGE V6 CUP EXPERIENCE >

American actor, the author of a movie script that he and his buddy, actor Ben Affleck, wrote for themselves, called "Good Will Hunting." They sold the script to Miramax for over $1 million, and played the key roles themselves.
The son of a realtor dad and a college professor mom, Damon grew up in Boston. He left Harvard a year short of graduation in favor of an acting career.
The film, "Courage Under Fire," gave him a start and he played an attorney in "The Rainmaker," 1997. His role in "Hunting" showed why he became Hollywood's Young Man of the Moment. Minnie Driver played his onscreen romance, a role that they continued off-screen until he hit a new low by announcing on a 1/12/1998 interview that he was a "single man." Driver said that it was the first she knew that they were no longer a couple.
At the Academy Awards of 3/23/1998, Damon was a nominee for Best Actor, and winner of an Award for Best Original Screenplay. After breaking up with Minnie Driver, he began seeing Winona Ryder in 1998 in between a stream of film commitments and an salary that escalated to $5 million a picture. He suffered a financial setback in 2000 through his investments with Dana Giacchetto which proved bogus, defrauded out of a reported $100,000.
In September 2005, Damon's representative confirmed that the actor is engaged to Luciana Barroso (aka Luciana Bozan), an interior designer whom he has been dating since 2003. They married in a private ceremony in New York City on December 9, 2005.
The actor and his wife welcomed a daughter, Isabella, born on June 11, 2006 in Miami, FL.

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (AP) -- Cody Zeller scored 16 points and Christian Watford finished with 13 points and 11 rebounds to help No. 1 Indiana pull away from Nebraska 76-47 on Wednesday night.
The Hoosiers (22-3, 10-2 Big Ten) have won seven of eight and regained a share of the league lead. They are tied with Michigan State.
But it wasn't easy early against Nebraska (12-13, 3-9), which frustrated Indiana by limiting possessions and repeatedly taking the shot clock inside of 10 seconds in the first half. Dylan Talley scored 10 of his 16 points in the first half to lead the Cornhuskers.
Indiana took charge after Zeller went to the bench with his second foul midway through the first half. It used a 10-0 run to take a 21-14 lead and closed the half on a 6-0 run to make it 27-18, then opened the second half on another 6-0 run.
No. 2 DUKE 73, NORTH CAROLINA 68
DURHAM, N.C. (AP) -- Mason Plumlee had 18 points and 11 rebounds as Duke erased a slow start to beat North Carolina.
Quinn Cook scored 18 points and Rasheed Sulaimon finished with 13 for the Blue Devils (22-2, 9-2 Atlantic Coast Conference), who gave coach Mike Krzyzewski a nice present on his 66th birthday.
They shot 44 percent -- 52 percent after halftime -- and used a big run in the second half to win their sixth straight this season and sixth in eight meetings in college basketball's fiercest rivalry.
P.J. Hairston matched a career high with 23 points and Reggie Bullock had 15 points with four 3-pointers for North Carolina (16-8, 6-5), which led for the first 26 minutes but lost its second straight.
The Tar Heels were 13 of 23 from the free throw line and missed seven of 10 during a critical late stretch while falling to 1-4 this season against ranked opponents.
No. 3 MIAMI 74, FLORIDA STATE 68
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) -- Shane Larkin scored 13 of his 22 points in the final 7� minutes to help Miami hold off Florida State for its 12th straight victory.
Reggie Johnson added 15 points for Miami (20-3, 11-0), which became the first ACC team to start league play 11-0 since North Carolina in 2001. Two years earlier, Duke was the lone team in conference history to go 16-0.
The ACC has gone to 18 conference games now because of expansion.
Durand Scott had 13 points and Julian Gamble 10 for the Hurricanes.
A three-point play by Scott gave Miami a 51-39 lead with 13:05 left, but Florida State countered with a 12-0 run keyed by a pair of 3s by Terry Whisnant to tie the score on Okaro White's basket. The Seminoles never could get the lead, though.
Miami built its lead back to 68-56, largely behind Larkin.
White led the Seminoles (13-11, 5-6) with 15 points before fouling out with 2:04 left.
CONNECTICUT 66, No. 6 SYRACUSE 58
HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) -- Freshman Omar Calhoun scored 15 points, including three 3-pointers in the deciding second-half run, and Connecticut beat Syracuse in the last scheduled game between the national powers.
Syracuse will play next season in the Atlantic Coast Conference while Connecticut will stay in the realigned Big East, although the Huskies could be enticed to head to another conference if asked.
There is no chance they would meet again this postseason as Connecticut has been banned from the Big East and NCAA tournaments as part of a punishment for failing to post a passable APR score.
Their last game was a close one until Calhoun started hitting from beyond the 3-point line.
He started the run with a 3 that gave the Huskies (17-6, 7-4 Big East) the lead for good at 45-42 with 9:49 to play.
Calhoun's others 3s were the last two baskets of a 13-4 run that gave the Huskies a 55-46 lead with 6:14 to play. The Orange (20-4, 8-3), who dropped into a three-way tie for first place in the conference with Georgetown and Marquette, came up empty in four of their six possessions during the run.
Ryan Boatright had 17 points for Connecticut while Shabazz Napier had 10 points and seven assists.
CHARLOTTE 71, No. 11 BUTLER 67
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) -- Pierria Henry scored 17 points to help Charlotte hold off a late charge by Butler.
Chris Braswell and Willie Clayton each had 11 points for the 49ers, who ended a two-game skid.
Rotnei Clarke scored 18 and Roosevelt Jones had 17 points and nine rebounds to lead the Bulldogs (20-5, 7-3 Atlantic 10), who hadn't lost at home in 12 games.
The 49ers (18-6, 6-4) went on a 7-1 run late in the game and then held on after Butller closed within one.
Butler played without Andrew Smith, who was out with an abdominal injury sustained in a victory over George Washington on Saturday. He will also miss Saturday's game at Fordham.
No. 17 OKLAHOMA STATE 91, TEXAS TECH 67
LUBBOCK, Texas (AP) -- Markel Brown scored 25 points and matched a career high with seven 3-pointers -- all in the first half -- to lead Oklahoma State over Texas Tech.
Phil Forte added 14 points for the Cowboys (18-5, 8-3 Big 12), who have won six straight.
Brown was 8 for 11 from the field, including 7 of 8 from beyond the arc. He was held scoreless in 7 minutes of playing time after halftime.
Brown's first five shots were from beyond the arc and he hit each one. Oklahoma State jumped out to a 24-6 lead and never trailed.
Oklahoma State shot 56 percent from the field (32 of 57) and 60 percent from 3-point range.
Cowboys sophomore Michael Cobbins had his first career double-double with 13 points and 12 rebounds.
Dusty Hannahs scored 14 points for the Red Raiders (9-13, 2-9), who have lost five in a row.
No. 19 NEW MEXICO 54, FRESNO STATE 48
FRESNO, Calif. (AP) -- Kendall Williams scored 13 points, capped by an emphatic dunk just before the final buzzer, and New Mexico overcame an 11-point halftime deficit to defeat Fresno State.
Alex Kirk had 10 points, nine rebounds and six blocks for the Lobos (21-4, 8-2 Mountain West Conference). Tony Snell also scored 10, and his 18-foot leaner with 20 seconds left sealed the victory as New Mexico remained a half-game ahead of second-place Colorado State in the conference standings.
Kevin Olekaibe led Fresno State (8-15, 2-8) with 11 points, while Kevin Foster had 10 points and 10 rebounds. Foster scored all of his points in the first half.
The Bulldogs scored only three points, on Olekaibe's 3-pointer, in the final 10:08.
No. 21 NOTRE DAME 82, DePAUL 78, OT
SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) -- Jerian Grant scored 21 points, including a big three-point play in overtime, to lift Notre Dame past DePaul in overtime for the second time in 11 days.
It appeared the Fighting Irish (20-5, 8-4 Big East) might cruise to victory until the Blue Demons (10-14, 1-10) used an 11-1 run to take the lead. Notre Dame then rallied to force overtime -- four days after beating Louisville in five overtimes.
Grant, who scored 12 points in the final minute of regulation against Louisville, came up big in the extra session this time.
Jack Cooley added 16 points and 10 rebounds for the Irish, who beat DePaul for the eighth straight time.
Cleveland Melvin led DePaul with 23 points and Brandon Young added 20, but the Blue Demons lost their ninth straight.
No. 22 MEMPHIS 93, UCF 71
MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) -- Joe Jackson had 21 points and 10 assists, four other Memphis players scored in double figures and the Tigers beat Central Florida for their 15th straight victory.
Jackson was 10 of 12 from the field, hitting his only 3-pointer. Geron Johnson had 19 points, nine rebounds and eight assists for Memphis (21-3, 10-0 Conference USA), while Adonis Thomas added 17 points.
Isaiah Sykes led the Knights (17-7, 7-3) with 17 points and six rebounds. Keith Clanton, UCF's leading scorer at 16 points per game, was limited to 10 on 3-of-10 shooting.
Memphis put the game out of reach in the first 13 minutes of the second half, highlighted by a 21-1 run that featured 3-point shooting, strong defense and fast-break layups.
No. 23 OREGON 65, WASHINGTON 52
SEATTLE (AP) -- Johnathan Loyd scored all 11 of his points in the second half, Damyean Dotson finished with 13 and Oregon snapped a two-game road losing streak with a win over Washington.
The Ducks (20-5, 9-3 Pac-12) had dropped three of four, losing their grasp on sole possession of first place in the conference. They regained it for at least for 24 hours, moving a half-game ahead of Arizona and UCLA, who both play on Thursday night.
Oregon played its sixth straight game without Dominic Artis, out with a foot injury. The Ducks continued to stumble offensively without their starting point guard, but their defensive effort was enough to hand Washington its seventh loss in eight games. It was the first time Oregon has swept Washington in the regular season since 1995.
Abdul Gaddy led Washington (13-12, 5-7) with 17 points.
No. 24 COLORADO STATE 66, SAN DIEGO STATE 60
FORT COLLINS, Colo. (AP) -- Dorian Green hit the go-ahead 3-pointer with a minute remaining and a three-point play with 19 seconds left as Colorado State celebrated its first game as a ranked team in 59 years with a thrilling win over San Diego State.
The Rams (20-4, 7-2 Mountain West) matched their win total from last season and extended their homecourt winning streak to 27 games.
Green's 3-pointer with 1:03 left gave Colorado State a 61-60 lead -- the 15th lead change of the game. After Xavier Thames' airball, Green's three-point play made it 64-60, and the Rams capped the victory with Jon Octeus' breakaway dunk with 10 seconds left.
Green led the Rams with 16 points, the same total that Chase Tapley had for the Aztecs (18-6, 6-4).

With the ugliness of the presidential election finally behind us, some market players thought we might see relief buyers provide support. Instead the action reflected a great amount of unhappiness with the results and turned attention to the looming problem of the fiscal cliff and the deterioration of the economy in Germany.
A big part of the problem was that the market didn't have a very good technical pattern to begin with. It already had pressure from poor earnings, economic issues and the problems in Europe. The spike in the indices Tuesday didn't help to provide a favorable setup for the market to deal with the election. If it had not run up already, there was a better chance of a gap down and then a recovery.
Although it didn't close at the lows, there was nothing positive about the price action today. The market breached the recent lows, had a poor intraday bounce and breadth was very weak. It showed all the signs of a market that can easily gain momentum to the downside.
I tend to stress how important it is to respect the market trend, and after a day like today, it is important to do so again. The way to make money in the market isn't to try to buy the exact low but to buy when there's the best chance of sustained upward movement. You make the big money by riding trends, not by calling turns.
Stay focused on the price action. It is obviously poor and that is a signal to stand aside and let it play out. We'll see bounce action eventually, and we'll see the trend turn back up. But be patient and don't be too quick to assume the worst is over.
Have a good evening. I'll see you tomorrow.

Shaun Johnson produced a miracle to get New Zealand to the Rugby League World Cup final and the Kiwis will be looking for the mercurial halfback to pull another rabbit out of the hat in Friday's Test against Australia.
With several top-line players missing through injury, the 23-year-old Warriors star will be tasked with guiding an inexperienced side around the park at Allianz Stadium in a game the tourists been given little chance of winning.
Bookmakers are offering $8.25 for a Kiwi victory with the home side paying $1.08 to keep their four-year unbeaten record intact.
However, Johnson's magnificent last-second try and nerveless conversion effort to break 70,000 English hearts at Wembley Stadium last November is still fresh in the minds of Tim Sheens' side.
They're also aware he'll go into Friday's game full of confidence following a match-winning display for the Warriors against Melbourne at AAMI Park on Anzac Day.
Like he did at Wembley in that epic semi-final, the talented playmaker delivered when it mattered, scoring the match-clinching try to seal a shock 16-10 victory.
"He's electric in the second phase, he offloads and for mine he's one of the best," said reigning Golden Boot winner Johnathan Thurston.
"He's still learning the game but he'll be the cornerstone of their side for many years and their go-to man on Friday night.
"He's the reason why people come through the gates, his footwork, his vision are simply outstanding."
Thurston's Test and North Queensland teammate James Tamou is also a big admirer and believes the extra responsibility could bring out the best in Johnson.
"Everyone still remembers the semi-final against England when he pulled out that miracle try and that's just what he's capable of," Tamou said.
"We've got to be on our toes. With the Warriors, he does it week in, week out. So it's up to us to stop him."
Kearney has named six debutants in his side including five-eighth Issac John, who has played mostly in the NSW Cup for Penrith this year, and novice hooker Siliva Havili who has less than an hour of NRL action under his belt.
But winger Jason Nightingale, who at 27 is one of the elder statesmen of the side, believes the presence of so many youngsters can work to their advantage.
"There's a lot of unknowns there as far as our players go, which might work in our favour," Nightingale said.
"It's just a good opportunity for everyone involved.
"I remember when I was playing in my first Test all those years ago, that was one thing on my side; I was very excited. We need to run on that excitement and use it and harness it as much as we can."
Kearney bristled at suggestions he's shown disregard for the international game by fielding a side lacking so many household names.
"How would we be disrespecting the game?" Kearney said on Thursday.
"All we have done is go through a selection process. We don't disrespect our jumper.
"We understand there has been negativity, but we're getting the chance to go out and play for our country.
"The guys going out there for us will do a wonderful job and play with a great deal of energy."

So, as I'm sitting here in my second week of half marathon training ready to go for my run in the morning, it's slightly stormy out and definitely raining a lot. I am sitting here instead of running because I have nothing to keep me semi dry except for a hat. What are your limits to running in the rain? If you do go in the rain do you have a rain jacket? What kind? Do you just go to the gym/treadmill on days like this? Or do you just go out and get drenched?
Running in the Rain
I get wet whether it is raining or not. Rain is not a factor in weather I run or not. Warm rain by itself can be pleasant to run in. I live in New England so usually the rain is cold (not between now & mid Sept though), so I will throw on a shell. Just be aware you clothes will get heavy faster and chaffing can be an issue if running long. Wind or heat are much more of a challenge then rain.
I hate the treadmill more that I hate getting wet...gonna sweat anyway, right? I have a "track suit" type jacket with a hood, and throw on a base ball cap. Keeps me dry enough. I try to not have the elements deter me from running (unless its storming really bad) because you never know what mother nature will be throwing at you on race day, so might as well mentally prepare to handle everything.
You get in the shower don't you? What's the difference?
I love running in the rain just as long as it's above 50.
I love running in the rain (at least the warm rain). Certainly preferable to running in the weather we have now (heat index > 150). In the last three weeks I've run in a tropical storm and several torrential downpours. A bonus of running in the rain is that there usually is no one else out on the paths, so no bikers to avoid
I think the trick to running in the rain is accept the fact that you are going to get wet. Run through the puddles, not around them!
On a practical note you need to put glide on spots that chafe because wet clothes will cause chaffing much faster than dry clothes. A hat with a brim will keep water out of your eyes. Have a towel and a dry top to change into after the run.
On days when the rain is not warm and you do want to stay "dryish" use a water repellant wind breaker. You can take most any windbreaker and get a can of spray water repellant. This will keep you dry in light rain but heavy rain will soak through even treated fabrics.
I used to have the same feelings as you do about running in the rain- i would go back to bed and then hope it wasn't raining after work- BUT then I thought if it's raining on race day am I going to skip it? So, I better start practicing running in the rain now in case it happens on Race day---- I found out I enjoyed running in the rain- but I did wish I had a hat- so I think with a hat you will be good!
You get in the shower don't you? What's the difference?
Shower is in the bathroom.
In late June, temperature isn't an issue. You'll get wet, but you'd get all sweaty anyway, right? Personally, I find rain a lot more comfortable than heat.
You might want to take a hat with a visor to keep the rain out of your eyes, though.
i reeeeaalllly love running in the rain (so far it's just been spring, early summer) feel just like a kid again.
but don't forget the waterproof sports mascara...otherwise, looks like leaving a disco in tears. "-)
happy running, imarex! best of luck, training for your half! :-)
Rain = Run
I don't run in the rain because I don't enjoy it. I have a high treadmill tolerance and can go 15 miles on one without thinking twice about it. That said, if it's raining on race day, I race. I don't wear anything different on those days but I make sure to bring a change of clothes for after the race.
You might want to take a hat with a visor to keep the rain out of your eyes, though.
+1. I use a visor to keep rain out of my eyes, wear tech clothing since they don't get heavy with water, then just go for it accepting that I'm about to get wet.
Disclaimer: I only run in the rain if it's a warm drizzle, but around here we usually get cold downpours and when that happens I hit the gym to lift or go see a matinee.
Nobody will ever convince me into believing that there is a jacket that will truly keep rain out and let sweat out at the same time. I've tried one and any rain it kept out was thoroughly negated by the sweat that was kept in.
I'm guessing that since you are training for a half that your mileage is up there. If you were only doing a couple miles I'd say you could get away with one of those maical jackets and it would work, but if you're going to be running any length of time you just need to face the fact that you're going to get wet. Wear a hat to keep the rain/sweat out of your face and wear your tech gear simply because it won't get soggy and heavy when it gets wet.
You get in the shower don't you? What's the difference?
Shower is in the bathroom.
Come to think of it, I've never run in my shower.
Running in the rain during the warm weather months (wearing a hat or visor): Yes. It is a very enjoyable experience. Yes, you get wet, but you won't melt like one of those wicked witches of the Wizard of Oz. Lightning is certainly something to worry about here. Why do people freak out in the rain?
Running in the rain during the cold/cooler months: No. When it is below 60 or 55 degrees, I'll take it indoors to either a TM or an indoor track.

Absolutely! I think of it as an adventure. Just don't run in electrical storms.
Keys to success = wear a visor or hat to keep the rain out of your eyes (not guaranteed to work, but worth a shot); make sure you are visible to drivers (rain reduces visibility) and put extra room between you and the car when crossing roads (rain reduces stopping time); put a few towels next to the front door so you don't track water through the house when you get home; if it is a cool rain, be prepared for the possibility of getting chilled, especially towards the end of the run (hands especially).
I hate running in the rain, even when it's the summer. Your shoes get soaked and feel like cement blocks. Your cloths get water logged and are extra heavy. A slight mist is nice but full on rain sucks.
With that said, you have to make a personal choice about what is worse for you - outside in the rain or inside on the treadmill. Unless there is thunder and lightning, I'll suck it up and head outside. No coat if it's summer b/c that's too hot. In fact, the less cloths the better. May go shirtless since I'll be soaked immediately anyway. Definitely a cap/visor to keep it out of my eyes.
Hate to break it to you but there is nothing you can wear that will protect you from a tornado and the stuff you could wear to protect you from lightning would make for lousy running gear.
Get wet.

I tend to wear an interior room in case of tornado and stay away from windows during lightning. I don't suggest people go outside during either.

How about this?
I like me a good rain run. It makes me feel really energized (and kinda hardcore). If it's below mid-50's I wear my rain jacket. If it's any warmer, I just get wet - as Jeb said, there is no such thing as rain gear that can completely keep rain out without also keeping heat and sweat in.
It goes without saying to use your judgement about dangerous weather. But full-on lightning storms, tornadoes, etc tend to pass through an area quickly. Just wait out the hazard and then go.
I live on the west coast of BC. If I didn't run in the rain I would be limited to very few running days in the year.
Unless its cool (below ~13 degrees C or below 55 F) there's no reason for any special clothing. Even wet, as long as your running you'll stay warm and that's the only thing you need/want to worry about.
If its much cooler than that a breathable jacket is nice (make sure its breathable or you'll quickly sweat underneath and be super uncomfortable). You'll still eventually get wet but it does keep you dry enough until your warmed up and will keep the heat in nicely.
I may wear a hat but if its super wet then its harder to wipe the water away with a hat on.
I know you shouldn't run in electrical storms and I'd never recommend anyone else do this... but I ran yesterday during an incredible lightning display and was enthralled. This is not an endorsement - don't run during lightning storms.
I've had lightning strike within 10ft of me twice and once felt the electric jolt of a lightning strike on wet pavement, but these incidents did not occur while I was running.
Most days my schedule is fairly flexible. To me there is a difference between monsoon and light rain. There is also a difference between starting in the rain or finishing in the rain. I will not start in a monsoon. But I realize when your year long training is focused on one race on one day you have to take what the day gives you so you do need to prepare for running in the rain.
There is also a difference between starting in the rain or finishing in the rain. I will not start in a monsoon.
I'm the same way; if it's raining really hard, to hell with it. But... I never stop if it starts raining during my run.
I don't mind running on the TM, so avoiding that isn't an issue for me. But, as long as it isn't raining, or raining real hard when I leave the house, I'm ok. I don't wear anything special, just get wet and suck it up.
We ran a 5k last night in a driving storm and the only real problem I had was the rain pelting my face made me want to put my head down to sheild the rain and made breathing a little more dificult. I find that if I'm thinking about the rain and how wet I'm getting, I'm not thinking about how tired I am.
Running in adverse weather builds character and gives you the confidence come race day. On rain days I hit the trails on purpose so I can muck in the mud. Love it!!
Running in the rain is my very favorite. 50 degrees and rain is ideal running weather in my book. I should live in Seattle instead of Phoenix because we get about one day a year like that.
Put on a hat and go run :- )
As has been mentioned, tech clothes help. A hat helps keep the rain out of your eyes which alone goes a long way toward feeling comfortable.
Where I live it's either run in the rain or don't run. Can't say I like it compared to a nice, dry 65 degree day, but it's OK. Summertime rain I can deal with, cold sleet and hail blowing sideways can be pretty hard to take. For that I manage moisture first, cold second.
I love running in the rain. If it's above 50F, I wear what I would if it wasn't raining. If it's below 50F, I'll wear a light jacket. The only thing I do differently for running in the rain, I don't take my mp3 player with me. A smll, waterproof mp3 player would be great though.
During the week I run at lunch time. So if it is raining (and it is about once a week or more) then I either run or stay at my desk and work. Answer is usually obvious. Takes lighning to stay.
I enjoy running in the rain. Yesterday morning, however, I chose not to as it looked like the end of the world outside. Decided to wait until last night and had a nice steady rain for the entire five miles and got to see a little lightening as well.
If there is no lightning or a reporter and camera crew from the weather channel out there, go for it.
I wold stay closer to home or your car so if things turn bad, that way you know where and how long it takes to get to a more comfortable or safe location.
Always think safety.
I don't run in the lightning/thunder. I also don't run if tree limbs are falling down right and left (which tends to happen during big storms). Typically one can avoid a storm if one is willing to be slightly flexible (running in the morning instead of night; taking a rest day on a different day of the week). The few times a year you can't where I live, I doubt make a difference.
If it's summer and there are no thunderstorms I like running in the rain since it keeps you nice and cool. If the temperature is in the 60s or lower I hit the treadmill because =at that point running in the rain isn't enjoyable.

The most miserable heat I've ever run in was in the rain here in Georgia. Unless it's a real frog strangler, a light rain hitting hot asphalt will create a hellacious steambath.
One of my favorite races I ran was the color run here when it was pouring down rain. What a mess! What fun!

13 5-Minute Updos for Day or Night
A little history lesson for you: Smith's Rosebud Salve ($7) was created in 1892 by pharmacist G.F. Smith whose goal was to find a perfect blend of oils and botanicals. Mission accomplished—it's been a cult favorite ever since. Beauty pros love the non-sticky salve for lips, but it also works wonders on dry cuticles, scrapes, and burns.
We swear by Nuxe Rêve de Miel Ultra-Nourishing Lip Balm's ($19) ability to turn dry, flaky lips soft and velvety, thanks to protective, moisturizing grapefruit essence, acai, reparative calendula, and Chilean rose oils.

Let's preface this by saying Kyle has petitioned the NCAA for another year of eligibility and if it is granted, he will likely stay at Oregon. But if not, he could turn out to be a sleeper who jumps up boards based on potential. I can see him being a prudent 5th-round pick as a backup T/G. 2.

How many 258lb football players, besides Jason Pierre-Paul, do you see bounding around on a football field like a young springbok? Bojay does. He's a high-motor, physical, aggressive player, and that jumps out. http://www.gbnreport.com/westcoastreport.html

Hot-hitting Uggla scuffles in return to two-hole
SAN FRANCISCO -- When the Braves opted to move Dan Uggla into the second spot of their lineup for the first two games of a series in Detroit, the veteran second baseman was still a week away from breaking out of his offensive funk.
After providing some encouraging signs over the past week, the Braves opted to put him back in the lineup's second spot for Saturday's game against the Giants. But the results proved to be quite similar as he struck out in each of his four at-bats and is now 0-for-11 with 10 strikeouts while in the two-hole this year.
Uggla entered Saturday having hit .346 (9-for-26) with two home runs and a .452 on-base percentage in his previous seven games. In the process, his batting average rose from .167 to .207.
"It's good when you start seeing him drive the ball to right-center field and start seeing him make consistent contact," Braves bench coach Carlos Tosca said before Saturday's game. "His posture looks a lot better at the plate. It's been a lot of fun to see what he has done the last week to 10 days."
The second spot in the lineup is not exactly foreign to Uggla, who primarily batted in that spot during his first two full Major League seasons. The lineup's fifth spot is the only one where he has tallied more at-bats during his career.
