All good things must come to an end.
For #shinsukenakamura fans, that day has come.
The King of Strong Style fell to Samoa Joe at #NXT Takeover: Toronto, in an outcome that was probably equally as shocking as Goldberg's stunning victory over Brock Lesnar at the Survivor Series.
Samoa Joe is champ, but the true undisputed winners are NXT fans, who were treated to a showcase of stellar professional wrestling action at NXT Takeover: Toronto.
Great wrestling is alive and well and happening under the NXT banner. NXT may be the WWE's developmental territory, but the WWE main brands could stand to learn a few things from NXT. Actually, they could learn a lot. Professional wrestling, when kept simple and free of overproduction, can feel like somewhat of a divine experience.
At NXT Takeover: Toronto, we all died and went to pro wrestling heaven.
Senior Editor Andreas Hale and staff writer Justin Molina run down each match and deliver their final grades.
Samoa Joe def. Shinsuke Nakamura
Nakamura entered the ring accompanied by live violinists who performed Nakamura's theme music. This was one of the greatest professional wrestling entrances ever. Nakamura has Hulk Hogan-level charisma and his walkout to the ring is worth the price of admission. Let's be clear: Nakamura is the best all-around performer in the business today. They topped their NXT Takeover: Brooklyn II match. The match started quicker and the action was fierce throughout. Lots of trading of stiff leg kicks and chops. Both wrestlers work stiff styles so this is the kind of match fans watch in awe. Joe won the match after a low blow, a slam onto the ringside steps and his patented Muscle Buster finisher.
JM: I didn't like the outcome. Nakamura should have stayed undefeated all the way through NXT, but nonetheless this was a great match and if Nakamura is going to put anyone over, Samoa Joe is the right guy. The fans respect his toughness. Seeing Nakamura lose felt a bit like seeing The Undertaker lose at Wrestlemania. I got a bit queasy. The good news is that maybe Nakamura will soon be headed to the WWE now that he is no longer the champion. Even if the Japanese wrestler stays in NXT, he will likely get the title back and that day will feel GLORIOUS (yes, we will get to him later).
Grade: A
AH: I liked the outcome because extending this feud is absolutely the right thing to do. But, for some reason, these two seem stuck just outside of the high level gear that we've seen them have in the past. This was much better than their Brooklyn match as Joe and Nakamura worked a convincing first quarter of the match with strikes. But it lost steam down the stretch. Knowing what these two have accomplished outside of the WWE, the bar is set remarkably high for them. There will definitely be a stipulation when these two meet again and hopefully we can get the classic match that we've come to expect. Oh, and Nakamura's entrance was absolutely amazing.
Grade: B
NXT Women's Champion Asuka def. Mickie James
Mickie's still got it. Even though she is well-past her WWE run, James returned and delivered against Asuka, who is one of the best female wrestlers in the world. James has appeared in Wrestlemania matches and was on the roster during much more popular WWE days. Here she did her job. James sold well for Asuka's stiff offense, including taking a German Suplex onto the floor outside the ring. Asuka retained the title after putting James in the Asuka lock for the tapout victory.
JM: Asuka hasn't had a bad match yet in NXT. She worked well with the veteran James, who brought her experience and maturity into the match. I felt like James was a real women's wrestler, not a model trying to do wrestling moves, like you see a bit with some other female talent in the WWE. Asuka needs to move to one of the main rosters because she's out of competition in NXT.
Grade: B
AH: This match didn't quite come together for me. It felt a little disjointed in spots and had a somewhat abrupt finish. Asuka is entering Demetrious Johnson territory here with absolutely nobody to feud with outside of an eventual collision with Ember Moon. Mickie James looked great and got in some offense. Asuka is still a bit of a jerk. All is well in the world. This just was perfectly fine, just not great.
Grade: C
DIY def. The Revival in a two-out-three-falls match for the NXT tag team titles
One of the greatest tag team matches in NXT history. Gargano & Ciampa and Dash & Dawson turned back the clock and made this match feel like we were watching the Midnight Express vs. The Rock 'n Roll Express in the 1980s. DIY won the championship two falls to one, in an electric match blew away anything with The New Day or Heath Slater and Rhyno, the Raw and Smackdown Live champions. The end came with a double submission, an armbar and a crossface on Dash and Dawson for the victory.
JM: Quick tags, cutting off the ring and working together are hallmarks of great tag team wrestling and both DIY and The Revival showed that they know their history. In doing so, the proved that they are the future. Both teams showed impeccable timing and their sequences were spot on. This match was athletic art. No lame unicorns or horn blowing, over sexualized promos that haven't changed in six months. This was tag team wrestling at its highest level. As Chris Candido used to say, "No Gimmicks Needed."
Grade: A+
AH: This was amazing. The Revival have taken old school ring psychology and brought it into the new era. Absolutely brilliant on all fronts. I was actually surprised Ciampa and Gargano went over as it felt like they were going to tease a blowup between the two. That being said, the crowd was electric and exploded with DIY got the job done. It's hard to put into words just how good this match was. But you can bet your bottom dollar that it is in MOTY territory and The Revival are a Godsend.
Grade: A+
The Authors of Pain def. TM61 to win the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic
Paul Ellering was locked in a cage suspended over the ring. Something about Ellering doesn't belong. He doesn't add anything to The Authors of Pain. TM61, like The Revival and DIY have mastered the art of tag team wrestling. They pushed the pace in this match and even though The Authors of Pain won, TM61 carried the match with their high-flying moves and tag team execution. Ellering dropped a chain from his cell, but it ended up flying into the crowd accidentally after TM61 Nick Miller blocked it.
JM: The Authors of Pain are big guys so they are getting a push, but they will need to improve their work rate if they expect to ever get over in the WWE. Big guys who throw little guys around isn't a gimmick that gets over strong in the modern era of the WWE. Besides, Braun Strowman already has that gimmick. This was the worst match on the show, but TM61 did what they could to make it bearable. The tag team wrestling scene is strong in NXT and TM61 proved that they are in line for a future title run, even if their job was to make the Authors of Pain look good at NXT Takeover: Toronto
Grade: C
AH: That finish sure was wonky and made zero sense. Having Ellering suspended over the ring in a cage felt unnecessary considering that there wasn't really a feud here. Then the chain drop felt completely contrived. TM61 did their best here but it was all about putting The Authors of Pain over as monsters. They still have some work to do. Not a bad match but for The Dusty Rhodes Classic finale, this was poorly booked.
Grade: C-
The Glorious Bobby Roode def. Tye Dillinger
We were treated to a choir entrance for Roode, who has the best music in all of professional wrestling. Roode came out, wearing his Ric Flair robe, with his Lex Luger narcissist gait, and knocked it out of the park. This wasn't pro wrestling; this was live theatre and it was perfection. Roode owned his entrance and the crowd was singing his entrance. Dillinger also has an amazing gimmick with his "Perfect 10" slogan. The crowd shouted "10" every time he hit Roode. If you can get the crowd to act interactively in your match, you'll be successful and sell a lot of T-Shirts. Great back-and-forth action, but Roode won with his version of the DDT after running Dillinger's shoulder into the steel turnbuckle. I felt like either one of these guys could have won the match at any point, which is exactly what you want in a match.
JM: Both Roode and Dillinger belong on the main WWE roster. Roode is Wrestlemania main event material and Dillinger is not far behind him. Roode is near technically perfect in the ring and even though he is wildly cheered, he plays the perfect bad guy role. Dillinger is also a veteran who has now found the best gimmick of his life. These guys should probably wrestle a few more times because they are capable of having a great match every time. This match was a Perfect 10
Grade: A
AH: Tye Dillinger's work is always masterful. He makes his opponent look like a million bucks every time out. Booby Roode's entrance is nothing short of stellar. He is ready for a bump to the main roster because his theatrics outshine his in-ring ability. He's not a bad worker, just better suited for the main roster. This match was solid and perhaps enhanced by the tremendously hot crowd who was still intoxicated by Roode's entrance. Roode going over was the right thing to do. But, seriously, we need to get Tye Dillinger a run.
Grade: B

Retiming Audio in GarageBand 2Using loops to fix tempo and key problems
Not everybody can rock as hard, as fast or as accurately as the rock legend known as Dave Nagel. So when these things happen, you need to look for workarounds. Here's a tip for fixing up these problems without having to re-record yourself.
To begin, let's say that this is your perfect riff right here.
The trouble is that after you recorded it, you discovered that your project was set in the wrong key. You were playing in B, and the project was set to D. (Not that something like this would ever happen to me.) Changing the key now, after you've recorded it, will mean changing the pitch of what you recorded to something horrible and still off because if you change the project's key, GarageBand is going to adjust the pitch of all of the recorded audio to "match" the new key.
So here's what you want to do.
Exporting the clip
1. Select the clip of the perfect riff you've created, as seen above. Copy it (Command-C).
2. Now create a new project in the same incorrect key and same tempo as the original project. (This will close your current project; so save changes, if necessary.) Give the project a name you'll remember, like "The Perfect Riff" (or whatever).
3. Delete the existing Grand Piano track (Track > Delete Track), and add a new one that matches the settings of your original track (Track > New Track).
4. Move the timeline to the beginning of the project (if it isn't already there), and paste in your clip.
5. Now choose File > Export to iTunes. This will render out your clip as an AIFF file that will be located in your iTunes music directory with the same name as the name you gave your project. It can be hard to find, so you might want to do a search for it in the Finder. (This is why it's a good idea to give your project a name you'll remember.)
Bringing it back in
So now you have your mixed down AIFF file, you're ready for the next stage of this project.
6. Now create a new project, this time in the correct key, but with the same timing as the original project.
7. Create a new "No Effects" track (Track > New Basic Track).
8. Grab your file from the iTunes folder and drag it into this new track manually. (There is no "Import File" type of menu command in GarageBand as of yet.) This imported clip will be colored orange.
And now you have your perfect riff in the correct key, ready for use in a full project. To make the rest of the process easy, we'll now add this clip to our Loops library so that it will be in the proper key for any project we create and so that we can retime it easily.
Adding the clip to your Loops library
9. Trim off the end of your clip. You can do this by moving the timeline marker to what should be the end point of your clip, then choosing Edit > Split (Command-T). This will split your clip into two separate clips.
10. Now select the first part of the clip only.
11. Then choose Edit > Add to Loop Library. Because you've trimmed your clip, you'll be able to store it in your Loop Library as either a looping file that can be retimed or as a static "one-shot" file. I'll choose the "Loop" option, and I'll store this in the Guitars > Elec Guitar category.
Now this clip is ready to be reused. Because we created the clip in a project whose key is set to B, rather than the incorrect D, it will sound appropriate in a project set at B (major). And because we've added it to the Loop Library, we can drag it into a project set to any tempo, and it will be retimed to match that tempo.
Nice, eh?

Lifesize Bride Wedding Cake - Need Your Feedback
Decorating By rana_cis Updated 9 Feb 2015 , 4:47am by Singerssoul
AYes I am being a bit hard on her because she is so dishonest and runs her business like crap. There is a yelp review all about that janky leopard cake and looks like she cant even own up to it. Apparently the cake tasted as bad as it looked. She ignores or lies about cake photo stealing. I find it despicable. Re: the witch hunt. When you set up your whole Fb and youtube ad on foolery, fakery, and thievery , then insult the online cake community's intelligence by trying to pass a mannequin off as modeling chocolate then you are going to get a backlash. I find her cakes to be tacky, poorly executed, and sloppy slopperton
Alright, she wasn't honest about it. Probably just wanted some free "press" and didn't realize how obvious it was to us.
No need to go on a witch hunt or totally slam her other work.
but, but... the internet must be told!!!! *insert righteous indignation here*
The 1st thing that made me think this was a mannequin was the placement of the top row of the pearl necklace. Why would you place a necklace up there unless it is to hide where the doll head attaches to the neck.
And where is the OP?? She has not even TRIED to defend herself!
What defense or reply... she is busted for trying to pass it off as cake.....
Interesting idea though a life size barbie wonder mold.
I would be crapping my pants to sit at that wedding with that creepy thing just...hanging around. She looks like she is being put up for sacrifice.
AWell done, would love to see your progress photos. How did you make the over the shoulder lace? And how did you attach the arms so they didn't drop? I have problems with arms on small things.
celiazumbach, really??? Or are you being sarcastic? I hope it's the latter.
I finally had a chance to go check out her FB page. You're right - she makes cute cakes but the caliber of what is on her page just isn't what it would take to make a human figure that flawless. (On a side note...You have to at least check your spelling. )
AThat spelling is often intentional on graduation cakes. Congratulations and graduation in one word. I think it was originally on Laverne and Shirley.
Since I've only ever seen it spelled that way on cakewrecks.com I had no clue it was a real thing!
That spelling is often intentional on graduation cakes. Congratulations and graduation in one word. I think it was originally on Laverne and Shirley.
I don't know; I'm skeptical about that misspelling being intentional. Not that I don't believe you, BrandisBaked, I just wonder about it. ??
I`ve heard it plenty before, and seen it on a few cakes as well.
AI've written it on several cakes over the years at the request of customers. I can't say for sure what the circumstances were for the cake the OP made, but I know it's not unheard of.
I'm a total dork, I write it in every graduation card I give out. (I even underline the 'grad' bit, in case people miss it, and to make it obvious that I am aware I am spelling it wrong, lol)
I also thought it was a misspelling. Cest la vie!
I thought it was a misspelling as well. I have seen it misspelled so many times that I just make that assumption. If it were me, instead of letting people think I couldn't spell, I would have put quotes around the word or I would have made the D stand out.
AThis cake officially made it to cake wrecks.
Ha ha! You found the thread! I saw the photo on Cakewrecks, and thought about this. Now we can enjoy the hilarity all over again.
I saw that too. That is one shocking cake! I also checked out the OP's facebook page..still "borrowing" other people's photo's of cakes.
Makes you wonder what people think when the cake they order from stolen pictures does not even closely resemble those pictures in terms of quality.

FlipKart don't allow you to use more than 15 E-Gift vouchers which is actually too much, but what happens when you get EGVs worth Rs. 50? :p Feeling poor? If you have not wasted your EGVs worth thousands buying small things, then you are at right place. Actually I was thinking to write the post from some days and today, a reader commented on the post that he wanted a trick like that.
If you follow the trick then you can use unlimited flipkart egvs to make a purchase at FlipKart, but unfortunately only from WS Retail. The good thing is that most of the electronics are from WS Retail only and so if you want to buy an Android phone, especially one like Xiaomi or Lenovo then this TRICK IS FOR YOU! 😀
UPDATE- Here's the latest FlipKart Trick (not basically a trick) to add FlipKart Gift Vouchers to Wallet and so you will not need to worry about Account Blocked / Banned because this is an official way to do so. 🙂
Once added to Wallet, you can purchase products only by WS Retail seller, so before adding the money, pls think twice.!
Use More Than 15 Flipkart E-Gift Vouchers in an Order – Official Trick
- Download flipkart mobile application from here.
- Sign in to the account in which you want to combine all the flipkart git vouchers.
- Tap on the three dots on the flipkart application.
- Click on your email ID to open your account settings.
- Open VIEW WALLET option from your account settings.
- Click on Have you received a gift card ? ADD NOW.
- Now enter your FlipKart Gift Voucher details and click ADD GIFT CARD to transfer your Gift Card amount to FlipKart Wallet.
- You have successfully added your Gift Voucher to FlipKart Wallet! 😀
How To Combine All FlipKart Vouchers & Purchase a Product from FlipKart (WSR) – EXCLUSIVE TRICK (OLD TRICK)
- Open FlipKart and hunt for any product from WS Retail. BROTIP: Search for DIGIFLIP.
- Add the product to cart and pay using your EGVs..
- Now cancel the order and when you'll be asked for the refund, click on REFUND TO WALLET to get the refund in FlipKart wallet.
- Next day too do the same thing, purchase the same thing and pay Re. 1 from your Wallet and rest from FlipKart Gift Vouchers.
- Again refund to wallet..
- Day by day repeat the same procedure until your all E-Gift Vouchers are converted to FlipKart wallet balance.
Confused? Here's an EXAMPLE! (FOR OLD TRICK)
Okay, I assume that I've 61 vouchers and each of them are for Rs. 50. I want to buy a product for Rs. 3000 and luckily, it's seller is WS Retail (Won't work on any other seller).
This means that actually we have vouchers worth Rs. 3050, but we cannot use all of them (61), but only 15 vouchers which worth only Rs. 750 (15 Vouchers each worth Rs. 50)..
Now I will follow this tutorial:
- I will find any product from WS Retail seller which is being sold for less than Rs. 750 (Rs. 600, 500, 650, any!), but I'll try to find the product which is closest to Rs. 750, BUT LESS THAN RS. 750!
- I will order the product and after 1-2 minutes will cancel it.
- I will choose "REFUND TO WALLET" to get the refund of the amount in FlipKart wallet.
- Next day, again I will order the same product, and will again use my 15 E-Gift Vouchers.. This means that I will pay Rs. 750 from EGVs, cancel the order and refund Rs. 750 (order amount) to FlipKart wallet.
- Next day too I repeat the above steps..
- I will keep repeating until all the Gift Vouchers have been made Rs. 0 and I have Rs. 3050 in FlipKart Wallet.
- Now I will order the product finally! :p
I hope you got the concept of flipping FlipKart vouchers to FlipKart wallet, but still because it's a little bit complex, having doubts is normal.
Do comment below if you have any doubts on this tutorial! 🙂

Spending The Summer With My Family In Holland
A closer look at how I spent my time back with my family in Holland, summer BBQ's and my mom's birthday were some of my favorite moments during the Summer of 2005.
Spending the summer in Europe. I picked the month of July since it includes my mother's birthday and I just had to attend her 50th birthday.
It also gave me the opportunity to see all my family and tell them about my years in Canada working at Motiongraphiks.
My dad had the BBQ already running in the backyard and grilled up some delicious spareribs, chicken satay's and veggies.
The next day I went with my dad to his cottage and checked up on all his plants... especially his favorite plant.
The IJmuiden name literally means "mouth of the IJ", which is a hint to the importance the town has for the Amsterdam harbour.
The name "IJmuiden" first appeared as IJ-muiden in lines written in 1848 by the professor and journalist (and, later, a liberal finance minister in the Van Lynden van Sandenburg Cabinet) Simon Vissering.
The present IJmuiden form was eventually adopted in 1876, as the North Sea Canal was being completed in this section.
In 1890 it had about 1,500 inhabitants, but boomed when the Koninklijke Nederlandse Hoogovens steelworks settled in IJmuiden in 1918.

I like a scoop of ice cream in a sugar cone. But when I buy sugar cones at a supermarket or a bodega to scoop my own, they are not the same as the cones used in any old restaurant or ice cream parlor.
Anybody know where to get the restaurant kind? The "fake" ones are dryer, sugaryer and brittle, while the restaurant ones have an ever so slightly moist suppleness or "chew". I'm thinking the difference is because the product at the supermarket is designed to sit around a long time, and or to just be cheap as hell.
An "artisanal" handmade cone would also be fine, I wouldn't reject them, but it strikes me that they'd not be so convenient, i wouldn't want to head out to buy a fresh made cone every time I wanted one.
I'm posting in Manhattan because that's where I want to buy them, but personal experience tells me that this problem exists on the national scale.

Hi. My name is Bruce and I am a esophageal cancer survivor. I had treatments in 1998 ending with surgery in Sept 98. I had my esophagus removed and my stomach made into a new esophagus. I had a feeding tube after surgery but did not use it. I was able to swallow prior to treatments but only small or slippery things. I have been talking to several persons on-line and would love to correspond with your grand mother-in-law. I am 55 years old, married for almost 30 years, have two grown sons, and live in California. Feel free to contact me or have her contact me directly. My e-mail is "email@example.com"
Best regards, Bruce
Jan 12, 2002 - 8:19 pm
Did you find a buddy for your husband's grandmother? My mother - age 71 - has just learned that she has esophageal cancer - stage III. She is not too Internet literate but I did get her a computer and she would probably like to have a buddy. I would ask her first of course.

For a long time hoarding was thought to be just a bad habit of messy, gluttonous or undisciplined people
But since hoarding was added to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM-5) used by psychiatrists to diagnose mental illness, hoarding is now considered an obsessive-compulsive disorder.
"Now," says Canada's foremost expert on the relatively new psychiatric disorder, "we have a defined psychiatric condition which means that there's a lot more time and energy and money invested in terms of understanding the problem, researching it and developing treatments for it." Dr. Peggy Richter, a psychiatrist at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre and an associate professor of psychiatry with University of Toronto says, "Hoarding is not a symptom. Hoarding is a disease. It is a disorder of the brain."
Richter says, "Hoarding can range on a spectrum from very mild to very severe. At the mild end are people whose clutter would clearly be more severe than most of us would consider normal, very messy and very disorderly but might still be somewhat manageable." At the other end "are people whose homes can be full literally up to the ceiling," she says.
"One lady I've worked with lives in a little tunnelled-out area in her apartment which is otherwise full right to the ceiling."
Up to four per cent of us could be hoarders, says Richter, who is also the head of the Frederick W. Thompson Anxiety Disorders Centre in Toronto.
"I think there's still a great deal of stigma attached to mental health conditions in general," says Richter.
This is a problem particularly for people who hoard, she says, because of the shame associated with hoarding. "That makes it all the harder to seek help and open up about it, even with people who care about them."
"I think there's still a great deal of stigma attached to mental health conditions in general." – Dr. Peggy Richter, hoarding expert
She explains that hoarders can be anyone. "They can be you, me, your neighbour, your friend, so although many people may have a stereotype in mind from seeing some of the TV shows which really dramatized extremely severe cases of hoarding, in fact hoarding is very common."
Because it's a newly recognized disorder, says Richter, "there's a lot about it we don't yet understand."
But there are enough commonalities to make a start at developing treatments.
"We see problems with time management, with organization, and that can often be misperceived by the person with the condition and those around them as laziness or lack of discipline. But the better we are getting to understand this disorder the more we're realizing that these are real deficits in planning that happen for most of us very naturally and easily that really go along with the condition and need to be targeted with treatment as well."
Five warning signs of hoarding:
Chronic disorganization
This impedes your ability to function. You can't find your keys, your purse, your wallet, your cell phone. You're chronically delayed getting out the door because of looking for things.
A lot of us are chronically disorganized, but this goes farther. It gets in the way of your normal daily activities.
Unwillingness to allow anyone into your home
This happens when the clutter has become so bad that you are too embarrassed to let anyone else see it.
Most people suffering from hoarding feel tremendously isolated by their shame. When you do let people into your home, they're taken aback by the clutter and comment on it.
'Clutter blindness'
"Clutter blindness" blocks people from realizing how their home looks to others. Hearing concerns from somebody you trust is a good warning sign.
Being distressed about your belongings
Many of us enjoy collecting. But have your accumulated belongings become a burden rather than a pleasure? Do you have no way to display all the collectibles?
If so, this has probably gone beyond understandable, healthy collecting and become hoarding.
Compulsive buying or acquiring
Do you bring home too much stuff? Perhaps it's shopping in person or online, or perhaps it's collecting free stuff.
Realizing that you're always coming home with more than you intended to pick up or with more than you need is a warning sign.
Another sign is that your purchases sit unused or unopened.
If you or someone you love thinks you need help with your hoarding habits, call the Visiting Homemakers Association and ask for the Volunteer Hoarding Support Program, 416-489-2500.
You may also call Frederick W. Thompson Anxiety Disorders Centre at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre in Toronto, 416-480-4002.
Outside the Toronto area, call your local community health centre.

text: Hey guys. I'm going to try and describe our current IEM setup and hopefully it will make sense. I need some help diagnosing a couple issues we've been having when we're playing live. Three piece cover band. We all use IEMs (Shure headphones). No stage (wedge) monitors at all. PA is a basic newer Peavey unit. I'm not sure on the exact model the guitarist has, but it's similar to this: http://www.musiciansfriend.com/pro-audio/peavey-pvi8500-8-channel-400w-powered-pa-head-w-bluetooth-and-fx We run two speakers on a pole off of it. No other subs, etc. For the IEMs, we run a mono cable from the monitor out on the front of the PA head. On the other end of the mono cable, I have a mono to stereo adapter, going into a basic Behringer headphone amp (http://www.musiciansfriend.com/pro-audio/behringer-microamp-ha400-headphone-amp). The headphone amp has four outs on it (we use three, one for each person in the band). Guitarist and I both use wireless units for our headphones (Galaxy Audio AS-900 on different channels). The drummer just has a headphone extension cable going from the Behringer headphone amp to his own headphones. We are using stereo headphone cables from the headphone outs on the Behringer (guitarist and I are using Y splitter cables to go into our wireless units). None of this seems to make a difference, as we're all experiencing the same issues. The biggest issue we've been having is that every other show, we seem to get really crummy sound in our headphones, even though we're hooking things up the same way from show to show. For instance, when we were playing Saturday night, we were all getting sound in only one ear (maybe a tiny amount in the other), which was fairly distorted. Fortunately, everyone said what was coming through the mains sounded great. I had to crank the monitor out level on the PA up to about 3 o'clock for us to get audible sound in our headphones. I'm sure I'm hooking something up incorrectly, but I can't figure out what. All of this equipment is pretty new, so I'd be fairly shocked if something was faulty or going bad already. Any help or advice would be appreciated.

The Sunday Rumours: Liverpool will be sold to Indians, Man City line-up Mancini & Southampton want Shearer
Comment & analysis round-up
Quote of the day: "He's [Gomes] got a hand on the ball – it was a terrible decision. It was a gift that United didn't deserve and it put them back in the game. Without that bit of help from the ref, I don't think United would have come back. If [Webb's] the best referee in the country, I wouldn't like to see the worst one. Once again, we've been the victims of a poor decision that has changed the course of a game." – Harry Redknapp.
Runner-up: "I am not a pundit any more. I am now the manager. I don't really care what people on the outside say, probably like they didn't care what I said when I sat there on a Saturday night a month ago. Everyone has an opinion. I respect that, because that is what I do – that's what I did. I respect it, but listen to it? No." – Alan Shearer.
Today's overview: The scribes are queuing up to dose lyrical champagne over champions-elect Manchester United this Sunday.
Daniel Taylor kicks-off the party saying "United deserve all the superlatives for the determination, drive and sheer guts of their fightback," while Paul Wilson chips in with "this was the day, and there's always one, when the sun bursts from behind clouds at three o'clock precisely and you can see all the way to the end of the season." While after pointing out "if you cannot defend you may as well attack," Wayne Rooney was singled out by Jonathan Northcroft saying "Rooney was the pivot upon which every action of United's comeback turned."
It was left to David Harrison to make the case that Manchester United only won becuase of the penalty which should never have been. "Webb's inexplicable intervention unsettled Tottenham to such an extent that they conceded five goals in 22 minutes. Their confidence had been shot to pieces and there was no way back into a match they had controlled up to half-time."
Reporting on Liverpool's win at Hull, Duncan Castles spells out the problems for the Tigers. "Hull's fall from grace has been as precipitous as their ascent was provocative." Yet Michael Walker finds the silver lining for Hull penning "show this level of commitment in their next home game – against Stoke – and Hull might still have enough to stay up."
On the Reds, the John Richardson meekly suggests that Liverpool may be about to be sold. "The Sunday Express Sport can reveal that leading members of the Indian-GMR group owned by Grandhi Mallikarjun Rao, who is worth £4.2billion, were wined and dined by Hicks and Gillett." The Sunday Mirror's Steve Millar also plugs the story printing "Liverpool are now the target of a £500million Indian takeaway."
With the Champions League semi-finals just around the corner, Sid Lowe waxes lyrical over Barcelona. "Everyone is fitter, better organised, brighter and hungrier than before. The identity of the side – the Dream Team's identity – is clear. It is not just the goals that blow you away but the control. The whole package."
Keeping with the Catalans. On Barca's number 10, Rob Shepherd comments "Cristiano Ronaldo may still sprinkle stardust and Kaka is touched with sporadic genius but nobody else embodies the purity of the game at its best. Nobody truly compares with Messi." Following suit, John Carlin risks making a fool of himself lavishing the ultimate praise on Leo Messi. "Messi is more than merely great, in the rather promiscuous, diminished sense that we use the word when we talk football; he is sensational. After two decades of waiting, a new Messiah (as he is known in Barcelona) has arrived, a player worthy of standing alongside Diego Maradona and Pele, two natural-born geniuses, in a class of their own."
There is however a dissenting opinion as, after paying lip-service to Barca's incredible season, Pete Jenson mischievously asks "have they actually faced really strong opposition yet?"
On Chelsea, Duncan White suggests that the Blues, regardless of winning, will remain envious of their Spanish opponents. "Will Abramovich feel envy on at the Nou Camp on Tuesday? There is every chance Chelsea's physical approach will destabilise Barcelona's regal demeanour, but then it is not just about winning."
Jonathan Northcroft makes the case for Arsenal being the smiling clown of European football. "Arsenal – in terms of support, wealth, history and consistently high playing standards during the modern era – may be the greatest club never to win Europe's primary football competition. Wenger, with Bill Shankly, is surely the greatest manager."
Staying with the Gunners, Oliver Brown reports on Arsene Wenger's fears "that the era of foreign domination in the Premier League will 'soon be over' due to the declining value of sterling and the imposition by last week's Budget of a 50 per cent tax rate upon high earners." Henry Winter concurs with The Proffessor adding "Sterling's collapse and the hike in income tax makes the Premier League less attractive. We should enjoy the golden age while it lasts."
Keeping with finances, Martin Hardy reports that "Mike Ashley is facing an £840million 12-month LOSS to his fortune by flogging Newcastle if the club go down. The Toon owner, who has poured £260m into the Magpies, is ready to sell for £120m. That deficit is on top of the £700m he is reported to have lost in the recession."
As usual, rumours, lies and pure works of fiction are churned out by the Sunday tabloids.
Paul Hetherington reports on how "Robert Mancini wants to succeed Mark Hughes as manager of Manchester City." The People's Steve Bates goes a step further adding "Roberto Mancini is being lined up to take over from Manchester City boss Mark Hughes this summer. Senior City officials and agents representing Mancini are scheduled to have a meeting this week." While in other managerial news, Aiden McGee publishes that "Avram Grant has told friends the Portsmouth job is his to turn down."
Perhaps the maddest news of the day is delivered by Alan Oliver reporting "Newcastle stand-in boss Alan Shearer will be offered another rescue mission – by Southampton. A consortium is ready to take over at stricken St Mary's, and their former striker is the man they want to kickstart a revival… the Saints consortium is ready to allow Shearer total control to rebuild the club."
And then come the proposed transfers. According to the NOTW, "Tottenham are set to make an £8million summer swoop for French striker Djibril Cisse." Chris Bascombe claims that "Daniel Agger has snubbed a new four-year Liverpool deal worth £10million." While The People link Wolves with Damien Duff, Sami Hyypia, Frazier Campbell and Bristol City midfielder Marvin Elliot.
Commenting on Frank Lampard's radio rant against James O'Brien, Rod Liddle wonders whether going public was the best course of action. "The red tops will be investigating every nuanced detail of Frank's tirade and promises to his ex; we will see photos of the Fulham pad and the new house Frankie is planning for his family and there will be ripostes from Elen and her family and her friends, sly comments from Frank's former girlfriends, a fugue of bitterness emanating from all points." (But wouldn't they have done this anyway?)
Paul Hayward challenges Roy Keane's theory of what constitutes success for managers in football. "For Keane to talk this way about Bruce, Hughes, Paul Ince and Bryan Robson (whose managerial career certainly trailed off) suggests the Darwinian tome he swallowed early in his playing days is still stuck in his throat." Paul Wilson also mocks Keane's comment writing "anyone with views so black and white should be managing Newcastle… Keane will be deemed successful if he gets his new club back into the Premier League. If he wins anything else with Ipswich Town, he will be the new Brian Clough."
Making Tony Cascarino look like the Irishman's biggest fan after farting "it's never very edifying watching a once great sporting hero turn into a bitter and twisted twerp," arrogant toff Piers Morgan predicts that "in all honesty I'd give it until Christmas before he's off out the door, moaning about how everyone is utterly useless, apart from him. With every new outburst like the one he spewed last week, Roy Keane's legend and reputation diminish just a little bit further." While lastly on Keane, Chris McGarth barks "if Keane walks away from difficulties at Ipswich he will be considered about as emotionally robust as Kevin Keegan. Perhaps only Cobh Ramblers would still take him back."
Finally, The Sunday Times publicise Rio Ferdinand's latest online venture, #5 Magazine, in which the footballer interview US rapper 50 Cent is the debut edition.

Mozilla Closes Down Critical Security Holes
The Mozilla Foundation has just released Firefox version 188.8.131.52 which resolves three critical vulnerabilities – but new issues have already reared their ugly heads.
One of the most serious vulnerabilities concerned handling of .jar files. An error in the Jar protocol implementation allowed cross-site scripting attacks on filters and other safeguards to grab login information and other data. Another scenario describes attacks with carefully crafted archives. Redirects allowed attackers to exploit the vulnerability. The second error to have been removed was exploitable by setting the "window.location" to redirect HTTP headers and thus launch cross-site scripting attacks.
The third error originated from a memory management bug which attackers could exploit to crash the browser or execute malicious code on the victim's system. These vulnerabilities also affect Mozilla Seamonkey, a new version of which (1.1.7) will become available in the next few days.
Despite the new bug, the Firefox developers still advise users to update to the new version of the browser. The Mozilla Foundation servers have versions in various languages with distribution packages due to follow in the next few days.

Antawn Jamison, who signed with the Los Angeles Clippers last week, says he never understood why the relationship between Kobe Bryant and Dwight Howard never developed on the court.
"It was difficult," Jamison said Friday in a radio interview on ESPN 710 in Los Angeles. "I really believed before we got started that those two could co-exist. But it just didn't work out that way. Both guys are unbelievable basketball players, the best we have in the game right now.
"But for whatever reason we just couldn't get that relationship as far as them communicating and them trusting each other the way you needed them to trust each other in order for us to win a championship. It just didn't happen that way."
Jamison said the Lakers had communication issues last year with coach Mike D'Antoni.
"Mike was pretty much put in a difficult situation," Jamison said. "There was no training camp where he could get a feel for guys. There was a breakdown of communication when we first got there. And throughout the season it was kind of up and down."
Now, Howard is in Houston, Bryant is rehabilitating his Achilles and Jamison is a Clipper.
"I was excited last year but this by far has been the most excitement I've had," Jamison said. "To be able to be coached by Doc Rivers and their coaching staff, and to play against these guys who had me on ESPN for the last couple seasons, throwing lobs and all this other stuff.
"On the outside looking in, you see these guys having fun. You see them interactive with each other, they're having fun, they trust each other and that's what basketballs all about. So for me to be a part of that, and for the fans to see that, I think they should be excited because our mindset is not just to get better this year , it's to come out of the West and try to win a championship."

Why Buy Canon EF 70-200 mm f/4 L IS USM Lens?
Reviews of Canon EF 70-200 mm f/4 L IS USM Lens*
Surpassed my expectations for video I've been shooting with the Canon 24-105mm f/4L for the past 1.5 years on my Canon C100. Overall it's done quite a good job and the footage has looked very nice. However, I needed a lens for wedding ceremonies with a much longer reach so I purchased the Canon 70-200mm f/4L and I've been utterly amazed at the quality of this lens. While the 24-105mm does many things very well, I noticed that when shooting at f/4, the subjects in the image did not look as crisp as my Canon 50mm f/1.4 when it's set to f/4.
After my first shoot with the 70-200mm f/4, I found that even when shooting wide open, the subjects look as sharp and crisp as I could ask for. Also, the contrast and color rendition has a much nicer look than the 24-105 as it just looks more natural and pleasing to the eye. Both are great lenses, but I'm just blown away by how nice the image of the 70-200 is. I decided to purchase a 2nd one for my other C100 as I plan to use it for many years to come. (Jan 2015)
Great all around lens Have only had this lens 3 wks. Have used it at my granddaughters volleyball games. Very sharp PICTURES and works fine with auto focus and servo settings. No issues yet. B@H was supposed to ship next day but it took 3 days to get it ,not a big deal. Still great service. Works great with my EOS 6D. (Jan 2015)
Great Lens I purchased this lens to photograph my granddaughter playing softball. I have dabbled in photography most of my adult life. I have taken a few courses and this Canon DSLR is my second digital camera. I own several lenses and I was hesitant to purchase a lens that was this expensive because I am retired. All I can say is WOW. I am happy i made the purchase. My first shot was my granddaughter sliding into 3rd base. I was amazed at the clarity without a tripod. The stop action was superb. The dust cloud perfectly suspended around the base. I was ecstatic!!! The auto focus performed fast and accurately. I really don't have anything bad to say about this lens. I read other reviews before I purchased this lens and I was worried about the weight. I found out right away that it was a non-issue for me. I wisch this lens came in a hard lens case rather than a pouch. (Jan 2015)

Just because immigration is out of the headlines doesn't mean it's off the minds of Hispanic University of Georgia students.
A year and a half after the Georgia legislature passed a sweeping package of immigration reform laws, and three months after federal reform collapsed in Congress, a couple dozen activists and UGA students tried to keep the issue in the spotlight Tuesday with a campus rally.
The rally got less attention than the argumentative preacher who usually occupies the Tate Plaza stage - most of the students walking to class didn't look up from their cell phones and iPods - but that didn't deter its organizers.
"People think, 'We've won this battle, let them talk, it's fine,' " said Claudia Chayco, a UGA student who was born in Peru and attended high school in Norcross.
The memory of Georgia lawmakers' successful efforts last year to limit Hispanics' access to state-funded education, health care and other services, though, still is fresh in the activists' minds, and they're expecting to fight more such battles next year.
For instance, state Sen. Chip Rogers, R-Woodstock, said Monday that Georgia needs a law to stop illegal immigrants from bonding out of jail when they're arrested so they don't flee the country to avoid prosecution, according to the Chattanooga (Tenn.) Times Free Press.
Rogers and others who favor strict laws against illegal immigrants say the laws will discourage them from coming to the United States and draining taxpayer-funded resources.
Critics like Jerry Gonzalez, though, say such laws are racist and divisive.
"All this talk about targeting illegal immigrants, don't believe it," said Gonzalez, president of the Georgia Association of Latino Elected Officials. "They're targeting Latinos. If you look different, if you talk different, you're a target."
Gonzalez criticized U.S. Sens. Saxby Chambliss and Johnny Isakson, R-Ga., for abandoning a comprehensive immigration reform package in the face of voter backlash earlier this year. He also attacked Rogers, the architect of the state's new immigration laws.
"We're going to send Sen. Rogers back to KKK land where he belongs," Gonzalez said.
Last year's state reform led the University System Board of Regents to stop offering in-state tuition to students who came to Georgia illegally.
Some students urged the regents to reverse that decision, saying that Hispanics need equal access to higher education to raise themselves out of poverty, and very few can afford UGA's $21,000 annual out-of-state tuition. They also urged Congress to pass the Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors (DREAM) Act, a bill that would allow immigrants who came to the United States illegally as children to pursue citizenship if they attend college or join the military.
Undocumented students often lose hope and don't even finish high school because they know they won't be able to attend college, said Chayco, who speaks to Hispanic students at high school college fairs across the state.
"Seven out of 10 students ask me 'Can I go to school without papers?' " she said.
Most of the Hispanic students said they are U.S.-born or immigrated legally, and came to UGA on the HOPE Scholarship, but feel a responsibility to speak up for illegal students who are afraid to speak up for themselves.
"Even though I was privileged to be born here, my family's been here for generations, there are so many who've been left behind," student Ben Medina of Marietta said. "They're my people, and I have an affinity for them."
The small size of the crowd didn't bother former Atlanta state senator Sam Zamarippa. The ones who count - the future leaders - turned out, he said.
"Leaders don't show up in crowds," Zamarippa said. "They show up in small groups."
The rally coincided with a national day of advocacy and was part of a slate of events UGA students and professors planned for Hispanic Heritage Month.

On Sunday, June 9, I spent about five hours volunteering at the IronMan 70.3 EagleMan Triathlon. In March, I was introduced to the idea of volunteering at races as a way of giving back to the running community. Because I'd always been so moved by the TV recaps of IronMan competitions, I decided to see if there was one in my area. Turns out, the EagleMan has been run in Cambridge, MD, for many years. I signed up and spent the next three months anticipating the event.
The job I volunteered for was "runcatcher." I Googled it and discovered that it would be my job to make sure finishers didn't fall over at the end of the race. Sounded good to me. I made my fair share of jokes about catching hot, sweaty men (and women, too, of course).
Cambridge is about an hour and a half from my home. I arrived around 10 a.m. and was in plenty of time to help unwrap medals in anticipation of the elite finishers coming across the line.
There were a bunch of us in a thirty foot long area, shaded by a canopy, wearing our yellow and green Eagleman Crew Shirts, getting ready with icy cold wet towels, medals, and scissors to cut off timing devices.
The finish line was more subdued than I expected it to be. Now that I think about it, though, I'm not particularly boisterous at the end of a long run and the folks crossing the finish for this race has just propelled themselves through a 1.2 mile swim, a 56 mile bike ride, and a 13.1 mile run, plus transitions. So, I guess it's not surprising that they weren't hootin' 'n' hollerin' as they came through.
There were plenty of people up front waiting to walk the athletes through the finish area, so I assigned myself a task that wasn't glamorous but needed to be done. I made it my responsibility to make sure there were icy towels for every finisher. Over the course of 3 hours, I hauled a dozen or more bags of ice, even more buckets of water, and stacks of towels, ensuring that the three big tubs of towels remained full.
|Jon Blais' parents (white and green tees) w/83 yo finisher
- Seeing at least three octogenarians finish strongly, with their heads held high and barely a wobble in their gait. I told one older lady (in her seventies, I think), "I say this without any irony: I want to be you when I grow up."
- Watching several people laying down to roll across the finish line. When I asked the volunteer coordinator why they were calling it a "Blazeman roll," he told me about John Blais who competed in an IronMan after learning that he had ALS. When he got to the end of the course, John could no longer walk, so he log-rolled across the finish line. The coordinator then pointed to a couple presenting medals and said, "Those are his parents."
- Hearing competitors jovially ask about each others' races and congratulating one another.
- Seeing a man carried across the finish line by six other folks when he could no longer move his own body. This sight was a little scary, too.
|Andy Potts medal-ing
There was more than one moment at that race that made me tear up. It was an emotional experience, watching people finish a journey they may have begun months or years before I ever laid eyes on them. I went home sunburned and tired but also content and hopeful.
In a slight paraphrase of the great Kathrine Switzer: "If you are losing faith in human nature, go out and watch an [IronMan]."

UCD SU launch Marriage Equality Campaign #VoteForME
UCD students union launch their marriage equality campaign ahead of the May 22nd referendum.
UCD Students' Union and the UCDLGBTQ+ society launched #VoteForME, their Marriage Equality campaign this week.
The #VoteForMe campaign aims to show people how the upcoming referendum is not solely about the LGBTQ+ community but about everyone in the country. During the launch, all students in the university were encouraged to tweet #VoteforME and give their own personal reason as to why they were in favour of Marriage Equality.
You can take a look at some of the reasons why UCD students are asking people to vote yes below:
Reasons varied from 'There shouldn't be 169 differences between my parents' marriage and my best friends' relationship' to 'No-one has ever asked them to 'civil union' them'.
Feargal Hynes, the president of UCD Students' Union stated: "This campaign is of personal importance to students. It is simply something that they see as normal and are determined to make a reality on May 22nd. Students want to create the world they want to live in and the Marriage Equality campaign is a perfect way to help shape and develop that world."

I just received my A-2 oxblood colored leather jacket on 08-2-17. I couldn't be more pleased with it! The leather is very soft, but thick. I thought the color of the jacket would be lighter, but I was pleasantly surprised how much darker it was. When your close to the jacket you can see the dark shade of redness, but from a distance the jacket is a dark brown like color. The knitting at the bottom of the sleeves and the bottom of the jacket, is not at red as the picture shows on the website. The brownish in the oxblood color pops in the light as well as the dark. In the dark this jacket could pass as the chocolate brown. This is a slim fitting jacket, the pockets openings on the side are almost at your hips, where the top openings are in front of you. The sizing help on the website works perfect. There is no insulation in this jacket as the narrative states below the pictures. The craftsmanship on this jacket is fantastic. This is my first purchase from Schott, and hopefully not my last. But, I see this jacket lasting me a very long time! Thank you
For quite some time I constantly had a look on the A-2's at Schott's via online shop.. But I hesitated to place an order as I was not sure about the size, the look and feel of the jacket and as the jackets are not what you would say low-priced. I live in Switzerland and honestly I am not good in handling a return delivery. So I thought I will visit one of the Schott shops during my next trip to NYC. But then I spotted this sale offer of A-2 Leather Flight Jacket and could not resist than to place an order. The jacket was in Switzerland within 3 business days. The jacket fits perfectly (size L = 54 European size), the quality of the leather is exquisite, the working is perfect - the jacket is worth every dollar. Thank you to Schott for this jacket but also for this perfect handling of the order.
The jacket is magnificent! Definitely worth every penny and will be buying this again as well as others. Will have to return due to size being too small. This was purchased for a man who wears a 42 in a regular wool overcoat. From what I read on the charts a Large should have been fine but I think it would be best to size up and go XL - hope this info helps someone because I really toiled over the decision on size. The jacket is a winner though and we absolutely love that it is made in USA!! Please continue we are new and loyal customers now!
I received my order of an A2 jacket promptly. I have had two of the same style, both by Schott, years ago. The new jacket is not nearly as heavy and doesn't seem to reflect the quality of the older products. The back has a huge seam running down the spine since two smaller pieces of leather are used instead of one large piece. Bad for adding art, etc. When the jacket was zipped up, the point at which the leather meets the knit waist was a full one inch higher on one side than the other. I expected better and I would have been very pleased had that been the case. Sadly, I had to return the jacket.
What I like most about this jacket is the quality of the leather which is thick but soft. This makes it very comfortable to wear. The quality of the hardware such as zipper and snaps feel very positive.
This jacket is a great example of American craftsmanship and skill.
Medium fit me well. I am in between Large and Medium but found the medium to be fine.
I own a Schott leather jacket, exactly like this one, same quality, and i bought it in 1994 in Greece. I still have it and it is as good as new. Excellent product, real "man" leather, still wear it, no matter how many jackets i bought ever since, just perfect, thank you for this excellent product.
The jacket exceeds my expectations. It is like the Porsche of leather. I pulled the trigger slowly on this purchase because even on sale, $500 is a lot of money for me. I have no regrets. I did not speak with anyone at Schott but read reviews and other comments about Schott, which were uniformly positive. I am 5'7", 150lbs, 41" chest. 32" waist. The medium is perfect both over a tee or a shirt with tee. Hats off to Schott logistics. I ordered on a M and it was here on Wed (N Virginia).
This is my first real leather jacket. The cowhide is beautiful to see and soft to touch. This particular jacket is a slimmer version of A2 bomber. Small fits me well and i normally wear 36 jackets. At the current discount, this is a great value.
Great quality product. Exactly as descibed and very authentic looking. Ordered on internet and deliveryed to Malaysia within 5 days. Fantastic service. Am a size 42-44 so that is what I ordered half ecpecting it wouldnt fit. Delighted to say it fits perfectly. Well done Schott!
I really like my new jacket. I appreciate all the patient and knowledgeable advice I received from your staff, both at the store and the factory. I had lots of questions and your staff answered them all. With their help i picked a style that I like and a size that is a great fit. I normally take a size 38 and I ordered a size small for my Schott jacket. The quality of the jacket is great too, better than I could find at any store that I know of. I would highly recommend this item to anyone who wants a nice flight style jacket, especially at its current sale price.

The popularity of 3-D printers is soaring. But how safe are they? Researchers at the University of California, Riverside, found that parts of materials produced by common commercial 3-D printers – including the one that melts plastic to build a part, and another that uses light to turn a liquid into a solid part – were toxic to zebrafish embryos. Of the two, the parts from the liquid-based printer were significantly more toxic. When exposed to toxic parts, the embryos' survival rate reduced. However, exposing the toxic parts to ultraviolet light for an hour reduced the toxicity. The researchers now wish to find out how harmful the 3-D printer parts are for humans. The research findings have raised questions about how safe is using a 3-D printer as well as how the waste from 3-D printers should be disposed.
