Jordan Speith, a freshman on Texas' national championship golf team, is plus 7 through three rounds at the U.S. Open. Here is a portion of the transcribed interview with the media Saturday after Spieth's round of 69 Saturday.
Spieth is the second low amateur. Beau Hossler a 17-year-old junior who has committed to UT, is the low amateur at plus 3, just four shots off the lead.
Q: What is it about the course or setup that makes it so
Spieth: Off the tee, it's the most demanding. The course is really fast. Balls are bouncing in the fairway. And they're severely sloped. Even though it's an average yardage of 25 yards you're hitting into throughout the course, you really only have ten yards to hit it in.
You're trying to place a drive out there that's going to carry 275 in a ten yard space. So everyone is going to miss fairways. You pick and choose which side you miss it on. And one it up from there.
Q. What was your state of the game coming in? You were kind of struggling, and not happy with sectionals?
Spieth: I'm kind of going through a little change. I've been off with my swing for a good two months now. Been trying to work it back. I kind of got into some tendencies after taking some time off. I've been working hard with Cameron, my instructor. He's been out here. It's been a struggle off the tee with my longer clubs, trying to shorten my swing and stay back on it.
It's tough to trust when I really only have one ball flight right now. Especially when you get into a U.S. Open. You've got to hit it in that area.
Q. What do you feel like has compensated for maybe not hitting as well as you'd like?
Spieth: Well, my 3 to 8 footers have been strong this week, and that's what you have to do in a U.S. Open, hang in there. I've had quite a few par putts, even the 4‑footers that look like they're not that hard on these greens, you've got to be careful about how hard you're hitting them. They go a certain speed, and then they die, and they roll an extra foot, especially the downhillers, staying patient on my putter and short putts have been going in.
Q. Have these past four weeks and then sectionals and getting in as an alternate, has that felt like a rush?
Spieth: Yeah, after NCAA's and sectionals, I didn't think I was going to make it in originally. Actually in between sectionals and the first round here I'd only practiced three days. So I'd taken off five in there and that's not exactly typical U.S. Open. Prep is taking off five days and practicing three in different increments, they weren't even in a row.
Coming in, I wasn't hitting it great. I didn't hit it great the first couple of rounds, which is fine. I'm not too mad at that because I'm working on some stuff. The biggest thing is not to get too down on yourself, because when you do, you make some high numbers. I'm still going through this tournament with nothing worse than a bogey. That's pretty special.

The number of English wickets that Fred 'The Demon' Spofforth took in a Test at the Oval in August 1882 to help Australia to a seven-run victory.
It was their first against England in England and created the legend of the Ashes. After Australia had been dismissed for 63 on a difficult pitch, Spofforth claimed seven for 46 to restrict England to 101 and took seven for 44 in the second innings as the home side, requiring just 85 for victory, were shot out for 77.
Four days later, on Sept 2, The Sporting Times carried a mock obituary, written by Reginald Brooks, lamenting the death of English cricket and stating that "the body will be cremated and the ashes taken to Australia".
Spofforth played in 18 Tests against England, taking 94 wickets at an average of 18.41.
The number of Australian wickets that Hedley Verity, the great Yorkshire left-arm spinner, took in the Lord's Test of 1934 to help England to victory by an innings and 38 runs.
It remains the only occasion that Australia have lost a Test to England at Lord's since 1896, though the touring side won the five-match series 2-1 to regain the Ashes.
Verity was irresistible on a rain-affected pitch, taking seven for 61 in the first innings and then eight for 43 after Australia had followed on.
He claimed 14 for 80 on the third and final day, which is still the most wickets taken by a bowler in one day in a Test match.
Verity, whose final first-class analysis was 6-1-9-7against Sussex at Hove on Sept 1, 1939, died as a POW in Italy in July 1943, having been wounded in an Eighth Army attack in Sicily.
The number of English wickets that Australian swing bowler Bob Massie took at Lord's on his Test debut in 1972.
A right-arm bowler who could cut and swing the ball both ways, Massie took eight for 84 and eight for 53 to help his country to an eight-wicket victory, although England would retain the Ashes by drawing the series 2-2.
Only Jim Laker and Sydney Barnes have ever taken more than 16 wickets in a Test match, but Massie's star fell as rapidly as it had risen. He claimed only seven wickets in the remaining three Tests and eight wickets in two Tests against Pakistan the following season to finish with a career haul of 31 wickets in six Tests.
Within 18 months of his startling Test debut, Massie had been dropped by Western Australia, his state side.
The number of Test matches in which Darren Gough played for England against Australia.
England's most potent strike bowler since Bob Willis and Ian Botham, Gough took 74 wickets, at an average of 30.81 apiece, against Australia in a period when Australian domination against England was almost absolute.
At 5ft 11in, 'Dazzler' was short for a modern-day fast bowler but mixed up his pace intelligently and became England's first and finest exponent of reverse swing.
He also remains the last player to have taken a hat-trick in an England-Australia Test (and the first Englishman to do so in an Ashes Test since Jack Hearne at Leeds in 1899), having dismissed Ian Healy, Stuart MacGill and Colin 'Funky' Miller with successive balls at Sydney in 1998-99.
The number of runs by which England beat Australia at Headingley in 1981, after following on 227 runs behind and then collapsing to 135 for seven in their second innings.
Ladbrokes, from their tent on the ground, at one stage quoted an England victory at odds of 500/1.
The remarkable turnaround was instigated by Ian Botham, who slogged an unbeaten 149 on a difficult pitch, though the contributions of Graham Dilley, Chris Old and Bob Willis were also crucial as England added 221 for the last three wickets.
Still, Australia required only 130 to win and were handily placed on 56 for one until Bob Willis bowled England to victory with a devastating return of eight for 43.
It was only the second time in Test history that a team had won after following on and England went on to win the series 3-1, having been on the cusp of going 2-0 down.
The number of wickets that Jim Laker, the England off-spinner, took in the Ashes Test at Old Trafford in 1956.
To this day, no bowler has taken more than 17 wickets in a first-class game, let alone in a Test match.
On a pitch that was heavily marked and almost devoid of grass, Laker took nine for 37 in the first innings and 10 for 53 in the second, to finish with match figures of 19 for 90.
By comparison, Tony Lock, the left-arm spinner, bowled 69 overs in the game – which England won by an innings and 170 runs – and took just one Australian wicket.
Laker finished the five-match rubber with 46 wickets (the most in an Anglo-Australian series) at an average of 9.60 and England retained the Ashes with a 2-1 margin. Overall, Laker took 193 wickets in 46 Tests.
The number of Test matches that Australian batsman Bill Ponsford played against England.
The only player in the history of cricket to twice score 400 or more in a first-class innings until Brian Lara equalled the feat in 2004, Ponsford made 110 on his Test debut, against England at Sydney in December 1924, and 128 at Melbourne in the second match of a rubber that Australia won 4-1.
The right-handed opener failed, relatively, in the 1926, 1928-29 and 1932-33 Ashes series but averaged 55.00 against England in 1930 and 94.83 in 1934.
'Ponny', who scored 1,558 Test runs against the old enemy at an average of 47.21, recorded his highest Test score of 266, at the Oval in 1934, in his final Test.
The number of Test matches Australian fast bowler Jeff Thomson played against England.
The former surf rider from the Sydney suburb of Bankstown made an inauspicious debut against Pakistan in 1972-73, when he recorded match figures of 0 for 110, though it was subsequently discovered he had played with a broken foot bone.
He returned to play in the first Test of the 1974-75 Ashes series and proceeded, in tandem with Dennis Lillee, to blow England away. Thomson, who missed the sixth Test through injury, took 33 wickets at an average of 17.93 as Australia won the series 4-1.
In total, he took 100 Test wickets against England at a cost of 24.18 each. "Maybe it's that 'tally-ho lads' attitude, but I never could cop Poms," Thomson famously remarked.
The age at which Leonard Hutton scored a then world-record Test score of 364 against Australia at the Oval in 1938.
Having made nought and one on his Test debut against New Zealand at Lord's in 1937, he hit 100 in the next game at Old Trafford and never looked back.
His epic innings at the Oval, which spanned 13 hours and 17 minutes and surpassed Wally Hammond's previous Test record of 336, allowed England to declare on 903 for seven.
The home side won the match by an innings and 579 runs to square the series 1-1, though Australia, who already 'held the urn', retained the Ashes.
In 27 Tests against Australia, Hutton scored 2,428 runs at an average of 56.46 and was the England captain who won back the Ashes in the Coronation year of 1953.
The number of double-centuries that have been scored by Australian batsmen in Tests against England.
Billy Murdoch, who was captain at the time, scored the first (and the first in Test-match history) when he made 211 in a drawn game at the Oval in 1884.
Syd Gregory became the second by scoring 201 at Sydney in 1894-95, a match that was notable for the fact that England won after following on. It is Donald Bradman, however, who not surprisingly dominates the list.
The Don scored a Test double-hundred against England eight times in 63 innings, twice going on pass the 300 mark. The two most recent Australian double-centurions against England have been Allan Border (200 not out at Headingley in 1993) and Justin Langer (250 at Melbourne in 2002).
The number of Test matches that Stan McCabe played for Australia against England.
A right-hander from New South Wales, McCabe was one of Australia's most accomplished and enterprising batsmen, accumulating 1,931 runs against England at an average of 48.27.
In the first Test of the 1932-33 Bodyline Series, at Sydney, he made an unbeaten 187 in Australia's first-innings total of 360.
But it was at Trent Bridge in 1938 that he played one of the greatest Test innings of all, when he recorded an unbeaten 232 out of his side's first-innings total of 411, farming the strike and scoring at the rate of a run a minute.
Don Bradman called from the balcony to his colleagues in the dressing room: "Come out here, you may never see the like of this again."
The number of Tests that Glenn McGrath has played for Australia against England.
Having played only eight state games, the unerringly accurate right arm seam bowler was plucked from the New South Wales outback as a virtual unknown to replace Merv Hughes in the Australia side in 1993 and has now played in 119 Tests.
Against England, he has taken 136 wickets - a total bettered only by four other players in Anglo-Australian Tests - at an average of 20.47 and dismissed Michael Atherton in 19 of the 34 innings he bowled against him.
McGrath is the first Australian pace bowler to have won 100 Test caps and has taken a total of 542 Test wickets at 21.55 apiece.
His batting, a conspicuously weaker suit, has brought him 631 Test runs at an average of 7.51.
The number of Tests in which Australia have beaten England at Melbourne, the most victories by one side at any one ground in Anglo-Australian Tests.
England have won 19 times at Melbourne, but their most successful venue Down Under has been Sydney, where the visiting side have emerged triumphant in 21 Tests, as opposed to Australia's 24.
Melbourne and Sydney have each hosted the most Tests (52) between the two countries while The Oval (34 Tests) and Lord's (33 Tests) head the list in England.
Extraordinarily, England have beaten Australia at Lord's only once since 1896 - and that was Hedley Verity's match all the way back in 1934.
England's most successful ground is The Oval, where they have won 15 times compared to Australia's six.
The number of wickets that fell on the second day of the 1888 Lord's Test between England and Australia, a Test record that still stands.
After a heavy overnight storm had prevented any play until the first afternoon, Australia were bowled out for 116 – which turned out to be the highest score of the game – before reducing England to 18 for three by the close.
With the pitch a virtual mud bath, England were shot out for 53 on the second morning whereupon Australia were dismissed for 60.
Requiring 124 to win, England were rolled over for 62 and lost the match, at 4.25pm on the second afternoon, by 61 runs.
In one day, 27 wickets had fallen at a cost of 157 runs. England, however, went on to win the series 2-1, thereby retaining the Ashes.
The number of dismissals made by Australia wicketkeeper Rod Marsh in the 1982-83 Ashes, a world record for a keeper in any Test series.
Marsh, who made a total of 355 dismissals in a 96-Test career, played in 42 Tests against England and made 148 dismissals (141 caught, seven stumped).
In that 1982/83 five-match series Down Under, which Australia won 2-1, the Western Australian took 28 catches, 16 of them off seam bowler Geoff Lawson and one off Dennis Lillee, who played in only the first Test. Overall, "c Marsh b Lillee" was a combination that accounted for 95 Test wickets.
Jack Russell snared 27 victims in England's 1995-96 series in South Africa while Ian Healy also made 27 dismissals in the six-Test Ashes rubber of 1997.
The number of Test matches that Dennis Lillee played against England.
One of the finest of all fast bowlers — and possibly one of the most belligerent, too — Lillee took 167 wickets in Tests against England, a total that has been bettered only by Shane Warne in Anglo-Australian Tests.
Lillee returned match figures of 11 for 161 in the 1977 Centenary Test at Melbourne and took 39 wickets in the six-match series in England four years later.
For pure hostility, however, nothing could compare to the 1974/75 series Down Under where Lillee (25 wickets at 23.84) and Jeff Thomson proved to be one of the most fearsome fast-bowling partnerships in Test match history.
In all, Lillee took 355 Test wickets — a world record at the time — at an average of 23.92.
The number of Test matches that Ian Chappell played against England.
Though a less gifted batsman than his younger brother Greg, the no-nonsense Ian Chappell still accumulated a highly creditable total of 2,138 runs against England at an average of 41.11, as opposed to an overall Test average of 42.42.
But it was his resourceful and astute captaincy between 1971 and 1975 that helped transform a demoralised Australia into a side very much in his own hard-nosed image. He never lost a series as captain and was at the helm when Dennis Lillee and Jeff Thomson blew away Mike Denness' England by a 4-1 margin in 1974-75 to regain the Ashes.
Chappell led Australia in 16 Tests against England, winning seven and losing four.
The number of Test matches that the legendary Frank Woolley played against Australia, precisely half of the 64 he played overall.
Woolley was prolific as both a left-handed batsman and as an orthodox left-arm spinner in a 32-year career in which he amassed 58,969 first-class runs (second only to Jack Hobbs in the history of the game) and 2,068 wickets.
But the Kent all-rounder did not dominate in Tests against Australia as he might have done. In 51 innings, he scored 1,664 runs at an average of 33.28 and took 43 wickets at 36.16 apiece, although he did make his maiden Test century - one of only two he scored against Australia - in the fifth Test at Sydney in 1911/12.
He also took 1,018 first-class catches, mainly at slip, a record which remains unsurpassed.
The number of wickets that Nottinghamshire's Harold Larwood took in the infamous Bodyline series of 1932/33.
A fearsome fast bowler, the former pit-boy bowled to the instructions of Douglas Jardine, the England captain, and terrorised the Australian batsmen with a barrage of 'bumpers' to a packed leg-side field.
Larwood took his 33 victims at an average of 19.51 and claimed the wicket of Don Bradman, who averaged a mere 56 in the series, four times in eight innings. England won the series 4-1 but Larwood never played Test cricket again.
A gentle and modest man, he emigrated to Australia in 1950 and was awarded an MBE in 1993 before dying two years later at the age of 90.
The number of wickets that Ian Botham took in the classic1981 Ashes series, which England won 3-1.
The all-rounder, who also scored 399 runs, began the series as captain, but relinquished the role after losing the first Test at Trent Bridge and then bagging a pair in a draw at Lord's.
The selectors confirmed that Botham would have been sacked anyway. Retained as a player under Mike Brearley, Botham returned to form at Headingley, taking six for 95 in Australia's first innings and then smashing an unbeaten 149 to set up an 18-run victory.
He polished off Australia at Edgbaston by taking five for one in 28 balls, took five wickets and scored 118 at Old Trafford in another home triumph and finished the series by taking 10 wickets in a draw at the Oval.
The number of Tests that Greg Chappell played against England.
A tall, graceful right-hander, he was indubitably the outstanding Australian batsman of his generation, scoring 7,110 runs in 87 Tests between 1970 and 1984.
Against England, he accumulated 2,619 runs at an average of 45.94 – some way below his overall Test batting average of 53.86.
He led Australia in 48 Tests, winning 21 and losing only 13.
His captaincy record against England was: played 15, won 6, drew 5, lost 4.
Chappell also enjoyed the rare distinction of scoring a century on his Test debut (108 against England), in his first Test as captain (123 & 109 not out versus West Indies in 1975) and on his last Test appearance (182 against Pakistan).
The score that Australia mustered at Edgbaston in 1902, the lowest all-out total in Test matches between England and Australia.
In the first game of a five-match series - it was also the first Test ever staged at the Birmingham ground - England declared on 376 for nine on the second morning of the three-day Test and promptly dismissed Australia for 36 on a drying pitch.
Victor Trumper scored precisely half of the tourists' runs while Wilfred Rhodes, the great Yorkshire left-arm spinner, took seven for 17.
Rain restricted play to 75 minutes on the final day and Australia escaped with a draw.
They went on to win the series by a 2-1 margin, though not before Yorkshire had bowled them out for 23 at Headingley in the game immediately after the Edgbaston Test.
The number of Tests that Australia's Donald Bradman played against England. In an international career that began in 1928 and finished in 1948, 'the Don' participated in a total of 52 Tests, meaning that only 15 were not against England.
He appeared in five Tests apiece against West Indies, South Africa and India – all of which were played in Australia. He therefore featured in an overseas Test only against England.
Indeed, he only ever played first-class cricket in Australia and England. Bradman's record against England was axiomatically second to none, although it was not as prolific as his overall Test record.
He scored 5,028 runs, at an average of 89.78, against England as opposed to a career Test average of 99.94.
The number of Tests that Geoffrey Boycott played against Australia. The Yorkshireman, who made 2,945 runs in those games at an average of 47.50, scored 657 runs in the 1970/71 series to help England regain the Ashes Down Under.
But nothing could match his achievements of 1977. Having missed 30 Tests through a self-imposed three-year exile, the right-handed opener returned for the third Test at Trent Bridge and promptly ran out Derek Randall, the local hero, before more than balancing the books with scores of 107 and 80 not out.
In the fourth Test, at his beloved Headingley, Boycott famously recorded his 100th first-class hundred as England won by an innings and 85 runs to regain the Ashes. Boycott made 191 – the biggest of his seven centuries against Australia.
The age at which Donald Bradman played his last Test innings, against England at the Oval in August 1948. Australia had already retained the Ashes by winning three of the first four Tests when the two teams met in the fifth and final match of the series.
With Ray Lindwall having claimed six for 20 to help the Invincibles dismantle England for a meagre 52, the Don walked to the wicket for what would be his final Test innings after Sid Barnes and Arthur Morris added 117 for the first wicket.
Bradman, who required just four runs to ensure a Test batting average of 100, was dismissed for a second-ball duck by an Eric Hollies googly and so finished with a Test average of 99.94. Australia won the match by an innings and 149 runs and the series by a thumping 4-0 margin.
The number of Test innings that Graham Gooch played against Australia before he scored a century.
After making his Test debut in 1975 with a pair, against Australia on a spiteful pitch at Edgbaston, Gooch was on the verge of his maiden Test hundred (against any country) on the 1979/80 tour to Australia when he was run out for 99 at Melbourne.
He finally reached three figures against West Indies in 1980, but it was to be another five years before Gooch did so against Australia, making 196 at the Oval.
The Essex batsman scored three further centuries against Australia, but his record against them was comparatively poor. He averaged 33.31 in 79 Test innings against the old enemy, as opposed to a career Test average of 42.58.
The number of wickets that Bill Voce took in 11 Test matches against Australia.
At his zenith, Voce was the best fast left-arm bowler in the world and proved to be the perfect foil for Harold Larwood, his Nottinghamshire colleague, in the infamous Bodyline series of 1932-33. Though he was a touch slower than Larwood, Voce's line from over the wicket and his extra bounce made him a formidable proposition. His role in that series was to maintain pressure, and he did so admirably, taking 15 wickets in four Tests (missing the fifth through injury).
On the 1936-37 tour, Voce fared even better, taking 17 wickets in the first two Tests, at Brisbane and Sydney – both of which England won – and finishing the series with 26 victims, more than anyone else on either side.
The haul of wickets that Terry Alderman took in the 1981 Ashes series, the most by an Australian in a series against England.
A right-arm fast-medium swing and off-cutter bowler with outstanding control and a ready smile, Alderman took 42 wickets in the six-game series at an average of 21.26.
His match figures of nine for 130, on his Test debut, steered Australia to a four-wicket victory at Trent Bridge in the first match of the series, though an inspirational Ian Botham would eventually help England to win 3-1.
Alderman pulled out of the 1985 Ashes tour to join a rebel tour to South Africa, but was once again at his accurate best on the 1989 tour to England, taking 41 wickets at 17.36 apiece and reducing Graham Gooch to virtual impotence.
The number of runs that Bob Willis conceded while taking eight second-innings Australian wickets in an unforgettable Test at Headingley in 1981.
In the third game of a six-match series, England were on the cusp of going 2-0 down before an astonishing innings by Ian Botham, who slogged an unbeaten 149 from 148 balls, enabled the home side to recover from 135 for seven to 356 in their second innings.
Even then, Australia required just 130 for victory and seemed set fair to win, on 56 for one, before Willis blew away Trevor Chappell, Kim Hughes and Graham Yallop in rapid succession to reduce the tourists to 58 for four.
Willis' final figures were 15.1-3-43-8, England won the match by 18 runs and went on to win the series 3-1.
The number of runs that Australia scored at the Oval while losing their last seven first-innings wickets against England in the fifth and final Test of last year's Ashes series.
Having restricted England to 373, Australia were odds-on to claim a potentially decisive first-innings lead towards a win that would have tied the series at 2-2 and seen them retain the Ashes.
From 323 for three, however, Ricky Ponting's side collapsed to 367 all out, with Matthew Hoggard finishing off the innings by taking four for four from 19 balls.
An Australian victory was still a possibility before Kevin Pietersen, who smashed a memorable 158, and Ashley Giles guided England from the uncertainty of 199 from seven to the security of 308 for eight.
The match was drawn and the Ashes were England's.
Australia's winning margin against England in the 1977 Centenary Test at Melbourne – a one-off match that commemorated 100 years of Test cricket.
After being put in, Australia were dismissed for just 138 before England were bundled out for an even more paltry 95, Dennis Lillee taking six for 26.
With the match having looked as if it might be over in three days, Australia declared at 419 for nine in their second innings to leave England an unlikely 463 to win.
But a marvellous innings of 174 by the irrepressible Derek Randall offered England a scent of victory before they were eventually all out for 417.
By an extraordinary coincidence, 45 runs was also Australia's winning margin when the two teams had played in that very first Test a century earlier.
The number of Test matches that Steve Waugh played against England.
In 73 innings, Waugh, who batted almost exclusively in the lower middle order, scored 3,200 runs - a total surpassed only by Sir Donald Bradman, Sir Jack Hobbs, Allan Border and David Gower in Anglo-Australian Tests - hit 10 centuries and averaged 58.18.
In the 1989 Ashes series in England, he scored 393 runs before being dismissed and played in a record 168 Test matches overall, during which time his medium-paced bowling was good enough to earn him 92 wickets. But his catharsis arrived in 1991 when he was dropped in favour of Mark, his younger twin, after which he minimalised his batting approach to such an extent that he forsook almost all risk.
Steve Waugh captained Australia in nine Tests against England, winning eight of them.
The number of Test matches that Allan Border played against England.
In 82 innings, Border scored 3,548 runs — the third-highest total in England v Australia Tests behind Sir Donald Bradman and Sir Jack Hobbs - at an average of 56.31 and scored eight centuries.
The left-handed Border took over the captaincy of a struggling Australia from a tearful Kim Hughes in 1984/85 and scored 597 runs in the 1985 series in England at an average of 66.33, including a match-winning 196 at Lord's.
Border led Australia in 93 Tests and his record against England was: played 29, won 13, drew 10, lost 6. Border played in a then record 156 Test matches and scored 11,174 runs, a record that has been subsequently eclipsed by Brian Lara.
The number of times that Mike Gatting batted in 27 Tests against Australia.
Gatting scored 1,661 runs against the old enemy at an average of 37.75 and made four centuries, with the first and highest of those being the 160 he recorded in a drawn game at Old Trafford in 1985.
It was also at Lancashire's home ground that Gatting was bowled by the "ball of the century" from Shane Warne in the 1993 Ashes contest there. It was Warne's first delivery in an Ashes Test and spun so prodigiously from outside leg stump to clip the top of off that Gatting stood there, seemingly stunned, before trudging back to the pavilion shaking his head.
Gatting led England in 23 of his 79 Test matches and remains the last England captain to win a Test series in Australia.
The age of James Southerton when he became the oldest player to make his Test match debut – a record, it can be safely assumed, that will never be eclipsed.
Southerton, a short and sturdy round-arm bowler, was 49 years and 119 days old when he made his international bow for England against Australia, at Melbourne, on March 15, 1877, in the first Test match ever played.
The Sussex-born Southerton, who was also a handy middle-order batsman and a reliable slip fielder, had previously played for three counties – Surrey, Sussex and Hampshire – in the same season, before stricter qualification rules came into force.
Southerton played in his second and final Test a fortnight after his first and later became, at the age of 52, the first Test cricketer to die.

YORK, Pa. (AP) — The Bon-Ton Stores Inc., which operates department stores, said Thursday that a key sales figure rose in December even though a storm disrupted a post-Christmas sales event.
Revenue in stores open at least one year rose 2.4 percent during the five weeks ended Dec. 29. Revenue in stores open at least a year is considered an important measurement of retailer health because they exclude results from stores that have opened or closed within the last year.
Total revenue rose 1.5 percent to $512.9 million from $505.2 million in the prior-year period.
Year-to-date, revenue in stores open at least one year rose 0.6 percent and total revenue rose 0.3 percent to $2.72 billion from $2.71 billion.
Jewelry, women's sportswear, dresses, women's coats and shoes were the best sellers, the company said.
Bon-Ton operates 273 department stores in 24 states. Its shares closed at $12.03 on Wednesday and have traded between $2.23 and $14.99 in the last year.

You'll need to take at least 32 hours of graduate credit for the master's degree in anthropology. Because we believe that students should gain a broad knowledge of anthropology, core courses covering three of the major subdisciplines are required. This requirement can be waived only by the graduate committee.
Also required is a graduate studies seminar (ANTH 600), which will help you become familiar with research resources and practices in anthropology and develop a research proposal for your master's thesis. A required 6-hour thesis allows you to acquire skills in research methods and techniques in a specific subdiscipline.
Beyond these requirements, you will be able to tailor your plan of study to your individual needs. Although we encourage you to take general courses, electives may focus on cultural or physical anthropology or archaeology.

This is a selective listing of publishers. The information listed was compiled using the prior Psychology Committee Acquisitions website, Ulrichsweb (TM), Literary Market Place (TM): LMP 2011, and the websites of the publishers listed here. Some general publishers are included because their holdings have a significant impact on the field. The holdings are approximate. For specific title recommendations, see Magazines for Libraries and the Core Psychology Journals database. Resources are arranged alphabetically. Vendors and subscription agents are not included because they are typically in place in an institution.
Offers streaming video of hundreds of hours of therapy sessions, transcripts, reference works, diaries, and films. Content is all electronic. Useful for practice-oriented programs.
American Counseling Association (ACA)
Has 9 serial titles and various monographs. More trade in nature. Useful for practice-oriented programs.
American Psychiatric Publishing
Publishing arm of a major association in psychiatry, the American Psychiatric Association, and of the key work, Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM). Their publications are especially useful for medical school libraries. Most journals and monographs are indexed in PsycINFO and/or PubMed. Current output includes six serial titles of which four are core, and a few monographs per year. Monographs emphasize texts, manuals, guides, and handbooks, which are key in the field of psychiatry. Its monographs tend to be the more important publications. Editions need to be kept up-to-date in your collection. The publisher has developed some mobile content. PsychiatryOnline is the native platform for its serials and the current edition of the DSM, but content is available from other outside vendors. Imprints include Group for the Advancement of Psychiatry.
American Psychological Association (APA)
APA publishes the major psychology materials for the field. It is international in scope, though based in the United States. There were over thirty-five unique monograph titles published in 2010, none of which was produced in electronic format during the same year. Their e-book pricing model for libraries other than for the database PsycBOOKS is not developed as of 2011. Currently, APA publishes ninety-six serial titles, the largest number of the publishers listed here. The largest number of books available may only be obtain via purchase of PsycBOOKS. Signature reference titles, such as the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association are not available as online products that libraries can purchase. Databases published by APA are core. See Databases for more information.
Not limited to publishing in the field of Psychology, but the Annual Review of Psychology is as important in its own way as APA's Psychological Bulletin.
Association of American University Presses (AAUP)
Though not a publisher itself, AAUP is a starting point for learning about academic presses. It is not a publisher of psychology material itself. A downloadable pdf grid on this site, The AAUP Subject Area Grid has the most useful information. The grid breaks out psychology, psychiatry, child development, and gender studies among a few other subjects of interest to psychology librarians. Cambridge University Press and Oxford University Press are the largest journal publishers of psychology in this list according to a search of Ulrichsweb (TM) (Feb. 28, 2011).
Publishes the important Mental Measurements Yearbook (MMY) and Tests in Print (TIP). The print versions often go unused compared to the online versions. The first eight volumes of Tests in Print are not online, so many libraries retain these early pieces.
A general publisher of serials and monographs, many of which are core to the field. Elsevier is international in scope. It produces ScienceDirect, a platform for all of its electronic journals, and Scopus, a large general citation database that competes with Web of Science. It publishes some key products in the medical field, such as Lancet and MDConsult. Major imprints have included Academic Press, JAI Press, and Pergamon. Total active serial output in psychology, cognitive science, and neuroscience is about 115 titles based on a search of Ulrich's. Monograph output in psychology in 2010 was 50 titles. Monograph output in neuroscience in 2010 was 31 titles. Cognitive science is not classed by this publisher.
Main focus is on professional materials in psychology, psychiatry, and neuroscience. In addition, publishes works in education and research methods. Publishes 13 serial titles in the field. According to LMP (2011) published 90 books in print and online. A search of WorldCat indicates 12 titles in psychology. Appears to have simultaneous online publication available through popular providers.

I love theming. While I am not very artistic, I do have great admiration for places that understand theming and create immersive environments. My husband and I love to visit theme parks, water parks and resorts, not just for the attractions and rides themselves but also for the overall look, feel and even smell that is created to help "transport" you to another place.
At Great Wolf Lodge, we create an immersive environment for your family. The inspiration for the look and feel of the Great Wolf Lodge resorts comes from the Northwoods of Wisconsin. Our resorts have a quiet, comfortable, rustic feel. From the color on the wall, to the wood fixtures and "log cabin-like" furniture, to the warm and inviting fireplace, the focal point of each lobby, we surround you in our forest home. As you look up at the antler chandeliers, and around at the soft earthy colors and cozy furniture—have you ever looked down? You should. We theme for your feet, too.
I love that our carpets reflect our lodge theme. Depending on which resort you visit, you may be greeted by bears, moose and "patchwork" pattern or a lighter patterned floor with leaves, soft greens and fall colors. If you haven't really noticed the carpet—I guarantee your kids have. While visiting the Great Wolf Lodge Mason, I watched one little girl play her version of hopscotch by only touching the "animal squares." She skipped over the patterns and prints and moved her feet by hopping from the bear to the deer to the moose and so on. It took her family awhile to get to their room—but everyone had fun along the way!
In 2012, our resorts in Wisconsin Dells, Wisconsin and Sandusky, Ohio were fully renovated and that meant adding brand new carpet throughout the entire resort. The colors pop brighter than ever and little feet enjoy the plush feel as they scamper down the hallways from the family suite to the water park.
Breaking with the outdoor theme a bit, the Northern Lights arcades also got a full facelift (that will continue into 2013) and once again, feet were not forgotten. I love the new swirly design, stars and bright colors that enhance the overall look and feel of the arcade. And don't worry—Wiley the Wolf left his "paw of approval" on this new floor, too. The carpet is filled with our signature Great Wolf Lodge paw print.
Next time you visit a Great Wolf Lodge resort, be sure to glance down at your feet during your stay. They just may be pretty enough for a picture!

There is part of the Imperial War Museum North website that covers this topic:
In the UK parallels could be drawn with the contribution made by people of the British Empire and Commonwealth in WWI and WWII.
I have some trouble with the concept of one month set aside for focusing on the history of such a large group of pupils.
I wholeheartedly agree, and have also made an attempt to make my schemes of work and lessons more inclusive. However, at the moment I think that Black History Month is absolutely imperative. If teachers/schools/LEAs are encouraged to participate then this could spark of an interest, which will motivate more teachers to create an inclusive curriculum. If BHM is not used then the status quo remains.
positive discrimination is discrimination
Currently we have discrimination, so what is the difference? positive discrimination or quotas should only be needed in the short term until a 'critical mass' has been established - if you look at the moves by the Labour Party to positively discrimate in favour of women MPs it has been pretty successful, especially in Wales which now has 50-50 male-female members of the welsh Assembly, the first time anywhere in the world!
NB I have just found out that I have been given a grant of £250 for my school's Black and Asian History Month. I would like to get some Asian drummers / dancers to perform in my school. If anyone can make any recommendations it would be most helpful.

Suggestions for G12 setup
Posted 07 January 2013 - 06:19 PM
I've acquired myself a Canon G12 and perhaps naively at the time ended up buying the Canon housing for it. It seemed like the most practical option for travel as it's compact and lightweight. However after a recent dive holiday, I've come to realise that I would like to be able to add either a macro or wide angle lens as the situation dictates. Some Google searching suggests that it's not particularly practical with the Canon housing since the Fantasea adaptor that can be purchased for the front port to attach the lenses is apparently very flimsy. I am happy to stand corrected on this and would welcome any suggestions on how to improve this setup for the addition of external lenses.
The other option I have been considering is purchasing a new housing that is more suitable for the addition of external (wet) lenses. I have briefly looked at the Ikelite housing and the Recsea housing, since apparently the Fix housings have been discontinued. Both seem to have relatively straight forward solutions for adding macro and wide angle lenses. Does anybody have any recommendations on what might be a good setup for me (assume price isn't an issue)?
Welcome any feedback!
Posted 07 January 2013 - 10:15 PM
Well, I used the canon housing for quite some time on my G11 (i've now gone dslr), and I actually liked it. I had a setup with a single D2000 and 2 x achromatic diopters from Scubacam in Singapore. It was great for macro.
Have you tried using macro lenses, strobes etc underwater before?
If yes then thats awesome! If no, maybe start with some macro lenses and a strobe, learn how to shoot in manual mode (if you can't already) and then start considering a WA. WA is (in my opinion) a lot harder than macro if you are just starting out
The adapter that I had was simply a squeeze fit so it could easily be removed in case something slightly bigger came by. I never tried the fantasea wide-angle, I thought it was a lot of money to give out just to get the 25% extra wide-angle back that one looses with a flat port.
I am not quite sure if you can actually get some proper wide-angle lenses to fit on a G12? I have seen a lot of people using the s95/s100 with WA lenses but don't recall seeing anyone shooting with the G12 and WA lenses, anyone has some more info on this?
Happy bubbles, Morten
Posted 07 January 2013 - 10:36 PM
I've not used a macro lens underwater before, but I do have an Ikelite strobe which I've used a bit, so not entirely unfamiliar. And I'm comfortable shooting in manual mode. I also own a DSLR for topside stuff, so I believe I understand the fundamentals, just not prepared to take that one underwater at this stage.

Posted 08 January 2013 - 04:01 AM
You don't need this though, a friend of mine simply cut a neoprene glove off and placed it over the housing port+diopter, nice squeeze fit, worked a charm!
I would just start out with some macro, and then see how far it takes you! I would recommend that you buy 2 macro lenses right away if you are planning to buy something like the INON UCL165's. If you are looking at some of the higher quality diopters like the subsee then a single +10 should be enough
Oh yearh, http://www.scubacam.com.sg/ there is the link for the singapore shop!

But as my next dive trip is to Cocos Island, I'm really more focused on figuring out what I need for that. It's not really a macro diving destination, and indications seem to be I should be looking into a wide angle lens/dome port. A little more Google searching implies that the aluminium housings are the only ones really designed to handle the weight of the wide angle lenses. Something like the 10Bar. While I'm not against purchasing a new housing, I'm wondering whether it's really going to be worth the financial outlay. If I bought the 10Bar housing (or similar), I could fit the wide angle lens as well as any macro lens or diopter. Whereas if I keep the Canon housing, it's really only suited to fitting a macro lens.
Thoughts? Is the shark diving at Cocos Island worth forking out the money for a new housing and w/a lens for the G12? Or would I be fine just shooting with the camera and Canon housing (+/- strobe)? Given the distance for me, it's not a trip I'm likely to be making again in a hurry. And while I'm still a novice with the underwater photography, I would still like to be able to take some decent shots.
Posted 08 January 2013 - 07:37 AM
I think getting a good strobe (or even two) is the first thing that'll improve photos.. definitely for macro, and perhaps even those sharks that'll come close to you (I haven't been to Cocos, but I've been close enough to sharks in S Africa and Fiji so that strobes could be used; on the other hand, in Palau, I was shooting natural light only -- sharks were further away).
Since you're considering putting down a fair amount of money on a housing (not to mention the trip), why not consider getting a camera that has faster autofocus than G12, and makes good images in low light situations? G12 could be a good backup. I used to think the expense of backup cam was just stupid, but changed my mind after I flooded two cams in one trip to Lambeh.
I do look forward to hearing about your experience in Cocos! It's high on my list of places to visit.
Posted 08 January 2013 - 10:08 AM
I'm just wondering if there are any other options than the dome from fantasea when it comes to fixing a wide-angle lens to a G12.. Will google a bit!
Posted 08 January 2013 - 11:18 AM
The nice thing on the Patima housing is that it comes with 2 ports, one universal port and
one wide angle port. The universal port will allow you to fit 67mm treaded wet lens and zooming while
the WA port don't allow to zoom much as the lens would hit the glass.
A lot of people use the S95/100 and G11/12 with 2 S2000 strobes and it works fine even they are a bit weaker
than the D2000 or even better the Z-240 strobes.
For Cocos you need wide angle and powerful strobes and some times the only solution would be ambient light pictures
because of the distance to the marine life, especially Hammerhead Sharks.
Most of the strobes will create only backscatter as the big animals will be simply too far to get them right illuminated.

Cocos-Keeling islands or Cocos Island on the other side of the world?
Posted 08 January 2013 - 07:34 PM
Just browsing through some other forums seemed to suggest that the Ikelite housing wasn't really that good for attaching a wide angle lens because of the weight of the lens. If someone's actually had that setup work, I'm open to the idea since it's simpler to obtain Ikelite gear than some of the other aluminium housings.

That one is discontinued? Are you sure you therefore want it?
There's absolutely nothing wrong with buying discontinued items, rather more often than I like to think they're hugely valued (the Canon S90/95 anyone?) but sometimes, actually often, the heart speaks more strongly than common sense.

HANG TIME NEW JERSEY — The New York Knicks have three free agents – J.R. Smith, Pablo Prigioni and Chris Copeland – that can be offered more money by other teams than they can by the Knicks, a result of their limited time in New York and that the Knicks are over the luxury tax threshold.
At the same time, if any of the three got away, the Knicks had limited means to replace them with equal talent. All they have to offer is the tax-payer's (mini) mid-level exception and veteran's minimum contracts. And they would have to eat into the mini mid-level if they were to re-sign Prigioni or Copeland for more than the minimum.
But with the market for shooting guards drying up, Smith agreed to a new four-year deal with the Knicks Thursday morning, according to multiple reports. The contract will pay Smith the maximum allowed under the Early Bird exception, about $24.5 million over the four years. The fourth year is a player option.
Smith was the Knicks' second-leading scorer last season and was voted Sixth Man of the Year. With his one-on-one scoring ability, he was able to make something out of nothing on countless possessions last season.
But he often stopped the Knicks' offense and went iso too early in the shot clock. And after he got ejected (and suspended a game) for an elbow to Jason Terry's head in Game 4 of the first round, he proceeded to shoot a miserable 34-for-117 (29 percent) over the Knicks' final eight games.
(By the way, the Smith-Terry dynamic adds another layer to the Knicks-Nets rivalry.)
Smith is the ultimate feast or famine player and the Knicks would be better off if they could replace him with a better defender or a more disciplined and consistent scorer, especially since they're adding another no-D, tunnel-vision scorer in Andrea Bargnani. Looking up and down the Knicks' roster, it's becoming more difficult to find teammates who complement each other's skill set.
But again, there was no way to replace Smith's points and minutes with someone of equal value had the Knicks just let him walk. And his contract is reasonable enough that he could eventually be traded.
That may be the Knicks' ultimate plan. They couldn't sign a new player for full mid-level ($5 million per year) money, but they could sign Smith and then eventually trade him for a guy (presumably a a better fit) making mid-level money.
That's exactly what the Brooklyn Nets did with Kris Humphries. When Humphries was a free agent last year, the Nets didn't necessarily want to bring him back. But they had his Bird rights and couldn't spend the same amount of money on another team's free agent. So they signed Humphries to a two-year, $24 million contract, with the idea that they could eventually trade him for another player making similar money.
The plan worked, with the Nets using Humphries' contract (set to expire after this season) in the deal that will bring Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett to Brooklyn. If they had let Humphries sign elsewhere last summer, that trade couldn't happen.
Is that the Knicks' plan with Smith? Time will tell. As an Early Bird signee, he won't be eligible to be traded until Jan. 15, 2014.

Aarskog syndrome is a disorder of the genes. It causes a problem in how certain areas of the body develop. Most common features that are affected include height, face, hand, and genitals.
Genes are the plans for how your tissue develops and acts. In Aarskog syndrome, a specific gene has a defect that causes certain areas to develop differently. This genetic change is inherited from the parent. Women can have the gene and have no symptoms, this is called a carrier.
Risk Factors
A mother with the genetic defect have a 25% chance of having a son with Aarskog syndrome. Fathers cannot pass their gene to their sons but may pass the gene to their daughter, which makes them a carrier.
The main symptoms of Aarskog syndrome are:
- Short stature
Abnormalities of the head and face, including:
- Rounded face
- Wide-set eyes
- Slightly slanted eyes
- Drooping eyelids
- Small nose
- Front-facing nostrils
- Underdeveloped mid-portion of the face
- Wide groove above the upper lip
- Crease below the lower lip
- Folding of the top portion of the ear
- Delay in growing teeth
- In some cases, cleft lip or palate
Other symptoms may include:
- A deformed scrotum
- Undescended testicles
- Small, wide hands and feet
- Short fingers and toes
- Mild webbing of fingers and toes, or crease in palm of hand
- Mildly sunken chest
- Navel that sticks out
- Hyperextension of the knees
- Intellectual disabilities
A physical exam will be done. The diagnosis of Aarskog syndrome is usually based on facial characteristics. It can be confirmed with genetic tests. X-rays of the face and skull can also be used to help make a diagnosis.
There is no known cure for Aarskog syndrome. Treatment is focused on managing symptoms that may be causing problems. Specialist may be needed to help treat eye, ear, or dental problems. An orthodontist may be able to help certain facial and dental abnormalities.
Surgery may be needed for:
- Inguinal hernia
- Cleft lip or palate
- Undescended testicles
There is no known way to prevent Aarskog syndrome. If you have Aarskog syndrome or have a family history of the disorder, you can talk with a genetic counselor when deciding to have children.

BOGOTA, Colombia (AP) — Colombia's government and the country's main rebel group have pushed back the start of formal peace talks until next week.
The talks had been due to start in Havana on Thursday. But a four-day delay was announced in a joint statement by the Colombian government and the leftist Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC.
The statement was published on Tuesday on the website of Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos' office. It didn't say why the two sides had decided to delay the start of the talks until Monday.

Victory for Ledyard in slot machine tax case
An appeals court has rejected claims by the Mashantucket Pequot Tribe that the slot machines they lease from non-tribal businesses are exempt from local personal property taxes.
In what the town of Ledyard is calling "a precedent-setting decision in favor of state and local governments," the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit reversed a previous decision and ruled Monday that two non-tribal businesses must pay personal property taxes on property they own but lease for gaming activities to the Mashantucket Pequot Tribe.
The case dates back to 2005 when New Jersey-based Atlantic City Coin & Slot Co. refused to pay town personal property taxes on slot machines leased to the tribe, claiming the taxes would interfere with Mashantucket Pequot tribal sovereignty. In 2008, WMS Gaming, another slot machine company, joined the suit.
Last year, a federal judge in Bridgeport ruled in favor of the tribe, granting the tribe's motion for a summary judgment that had cited Indian Trader Statutes, the Indian Gaming and Regulatory Act, and a U.S. Supreme Court case called Mountain Apache Tribe v. Bracker, which weighs federal, tribal and state interests.
The appeals court ruled Monday that the district court erred and that none of the arguments bar a state from taxing a non-tribal entity.
"With this decision, the Town of Ledyard will be able to collect taxes that are critically important to providing government services, including those that result from being a host community for the Foxwoods casino," said Ledyard Mayor John Rodolico in a statement.
"This case was just the tip of the iceberg, and our tax revenues would have taken a huge hit if we had not persevered throughout this eight-year legal battle to achieve this victory," he said.
A spokesman for the Mashantucket Pequot Tribe was not immediately available to comment Monday night.
Ledyard Council Chair Linda Davis, in a written statement, said, "This was a very complex case, and the Town is gratified the Second Circuit addressed all of the key issues so there will be no future uncertainty that we can collect these taxes."
The town spent more than $900,000 on legal fees in the case.
Rodolico thanked former Attorney General Richard Blumenthal and his successor, George Jepsen, for working with lawyers from Perkins Coie, who have represented Ledyard for more than 20 years on Indian law issues and donated considerable time to the effort.
"The result of this case is a victory for the taxpayer, for fairness and equity in taxation, and for ensuring the Town has a consistent revenue stream for the years to come," Rodolico said.

BERLIN – A senior German judge has rejected calls to give the public greater access at the trial of a woman suspected of involvement in a far-right murder spree that has shaken the country's security establishment since coming to light over a year ago.
The trial of Beate Zschaepe — the sole surviving member of a neo-Nazi trio that allegedly killed nine businessmen and a policewoman between 2000 and 2007 — is expected to generate intense media interest in Germany and Turkey, where at least four of the victims were born.
Part of the case will center on how Germany's well-funded police and intelligence services failed to link the killings of nine men with ethnic minority backgrounds to far-right fugitives for more than a decade. Several senior security officials have resigned following revelations that authorities for years believed the murders to be the work of immigrant gangs, had informers close to the suspects and destroyed evidence linked to the case.
Karl Huber, the president of the Munich regional court where the case will be heard starting April 17, said in an interview published Saturday that reporters and members of the public will share just 100 seats during what is expected to be a yearlong trial.
"We are going to conduct proceedings in accordance with the rule of law, and not a show trial for the public," he was quoted as saying by Munich's Sueddeutsche Zeitung. "We won't do this in a football stadium the way totalitarian states do."
Huber said the court considered screening the proceedings in overflow rooms used in trials such as that of Anders Behring Breivik, who was sentenced to a 21-year prison term by a court in Norway last year for killing 77 people and wounding 200 others in 2011. Norwegian authorities even broadcast the trial to courthouses across the country, so the victims' relatives could watch.
But German court rules prohibit such arrangements and so access will be strictly limited to avoid a mistrial being declared, Huber told Sueddeutsche Zeitung.
Zschaepe, 38, faces a possible life sentence if convicted of involvement in the murders. She is also charged with helping found the group that called itself National Socialist Underground and with many other crimes.
The other two core members of the group, Uwe Mundlos and Uwe Boenhardt, were found dead in an apparent murder-suicide after a bungled bank robbery on Nov. 4, 2011.
Four other men are also charged with various crimes for allegedly helping the NSU, including providing the murder weapon. The prosecution case against the men has been complicated by the fact that some may have been informers for Germany's security services at the time of their alleged crimes.

YouTube April Fools Video: Selecting Best Video Winner!
YouTube has posted a hilarious 2013 April Fools' Day video about picking the best video on the site since the first upload back in 2005.
Featured in the fake contest are hits such as Charlie Bit My Finger, Kids React to Grumpy Cat, David After Dentist, and more!
The video winner, according to the hilarious video, will not be announced until 2023 when the site goes back live. LOL! Such a hilarious joke!
The "prize" for the best video, as promised back in 2005, is a brand new MP3 player and a $500 stipend.
WHAT DO YOU THINK of YouTube's hilarious April Fools' Day joke???

Legislators eyeing gambling on old horse races
By BILL SMITH
New Hampshire Union Leader
CONCORD - With a debate over allowing casino gambling looming on the legislative horizon, lawmakers will consider a proposal to allow a new form of betting: wagering on horse races run long ago and far away.
The proposal is for wagering on historical racing. It doesn't mean reliving the glory days of the turf; there will be no renewed betting on the 1964 New Hampshire Sweepstakes, which ushered in state lotteries in the United States, nor betting again on steeds with Granite State connections such as Kentucky Derby winner Dancer's Image.
With historical racing, bettors would pump money into a terminal that would then select a race from hundreds of thousands in its database. Gamblers would be given some, but not all, of the past performance information for the race. The names of horses, jockeys, trainers, owners, racetracks and results would be a secret.
The sponsor of Senate Bill 63, Sen. Andrew Hosmer, D-Laconia, said it's a jobs bill for a community that reaped the benefits of an active dog track for many years. The former dog track in Belmont is struggling along with little more than charitable gambling at a facility where dog racing - and later simulcasting - once brought thousands to the $2 windows.
"It will preserve 55 jobs, but will also allow Lakes Region to add 25 jobs if these machines come in," Hosmer said. "In addition, Belmont might be able to go back into simulcasting, which could add another 40 jobs, making it 120 jobs in total."
At the other end of the state, the owners of Rockingham Park are concerned historical racing will get in the way of casino gambling, eyed by Gov. Maggie Hassan as a way to boost state revenues.
"We believe a casino bill would be far more lucrative than a historic racing bill," said Edward Callahan, president of Rockingham Venture, which owns the track. "We're in competition with Connecticut, Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Vermont."
A national operator of gambling facilities has an option to buy Rockingham if casino gambling is legalized in New Hampshire.
Historical racing is currently legal in Arkansas and Kentucky, where the state's highest court will soon hear a case brought by a group opposed to gambling. A bill to allow historical racing in Michigan was pocket vetoed by Gov. Rick Snyder.
The betting machines used for historical gambling resemble slot machines and erupt in a whirl of colors and sounds when a bettor scores a big win.
Louis Cella, vice president of the Oaklawn Jockey Club, which runs historical racing in Arkansas, said the reliance on bits of handicapping information turns the betting into a game of skill rather than pure chance.
"Unlike slots, which require no skill to pick a number, we can show there is more skill in historical racing," Cella said. "If it was pure chance, the chances of picking the winner in 10 horse races is one in 10, but people are picking winners one in six times."
State Sen. Lou D'Allesandro, D-Manchester, a strong supporter of casino gambling to boost state revenues says historical gambling is not the way to go.
"I'm against it," said D'Allesandro, vice chairman of the Senate Finance Committee. "Do it right with expanded gaming."

Second gold: 400 free relay -- Aug. 11
To win eight gold medals in a single Olympics, Michael Phelps not only needed to be at his personal peak for 10 days, but he also needed his teammates to swim their best under intense pressure.
That's exactly what happened Aug. 11 at the Water Cube. The U.S. 400-meter freestyle relay team of Phelps, Cullen Jones, Garrett Weber-Gale and Jason Lezak came from behind to win the gold medal, upsetting France. The biggest hero of the day turned out to be Lezak, the American anchor.
Lezak trailed France's Alain Bernard, the world-record holder in the 100 freestyle, by half a body length when the two swimmers made the last turn. But Lezak slowly closed the gap, reeling in Bernard an inch at a time, and he out-touched the Frenchman by .08 of a second.
It kicked off a celebration by Phelps and the rest of the Americans that can best be described as four men going absolutely bonkers with joy.
Phelps threw his arms into the air and screamed as loudly as he possibly could. Weber-Gale bearhugged Phelps from behind, and Phelps shook his fists like a warrior king.
The Americans' relay victory was all the sweeter considering the way France declared itself the favorite before the Olympics. Bernard was asked what he thought about his country's chances against the United States. "The Americans?" Bernard said. "We will smash them."
Phelps said, "It fired me up more than anything else."
The relays have always been, in some respects, Phelps' favorite events. He has spent so much of his life with the focus solely on him, and he relishes the feeling of being part of a team. He turned in a strong opening leg of 47.51 seconds, a personal best for him. Then he cheered his teammates on like a chest-thumping NFL linebacker.
When Lezak touched the wall, Bernard hung his head, and the U.S. team began its celebration.
-- Kevin Van Valkenburg
400 free relay
Silver: France
Bronze: Australia
Time: 3:08.24 (Phelps, Cullen Jones, Garrett Weber-Gale, Jason Lezak), WR
Previous world record: 3:12.23
Key to the victory: Lezak trailed France's Alain Bernard, the world-record holder in the 100-meter freestyle, by half a body length when the two swimmers made the final turn. But Lezak slowly narrowed the deficit and edged the Frenchman by .08 of a second.
Highlight: It might go down as one of the most thrilling Olympic swimming relay finishes in history, with Lezak's closing leg the fastest relay split ever (46.06).
Quote: "That was awesome." -- Phelps, on Lezak's final leg

How to Update Sony Drivers by Yourself?
There are a number of typical alerts and other messages which you may get in the driver updating procedure, a number of which I've paraphrased and listed right here along with tips on what you can do:
QUESTION: I reformatted my Sony VAIO hard drive. I re-installed almost all Windows 7 updates, then installed all VAIO software updates, including VAIO Care updates, all through VAIO Update Manager. The latest update offered to me on that date was VAIO Care Update version 8.4.4.09181, which was automatically downloaded and installed successfully. Under my Control Panel's "add/remove programs", it also shows that this is the latest update installed. MY PROBLEM is that VAIO Update keeps nagging me to install an earlier version of VAIO Care (8.4.3.07161). Naturally, it will not install since it is an earlier version number compared to the one I already have installed. I verified through VAIO Update Manager (under installation history tab) that the installation was successful. When I clicked on the version I have installed (8.4.4.09181), I am directed to a Sony webpage that says that it's an "invalid entry" (http: //esupport.sony.com/US/perl/swu-download.pl? upd_filename=EP0000323829.exe). When navigating to the appropriate Sony webpage for driver updates for my model number, that update version number is also missing. Did Sony withdraw an update? If so, what am I supposed to do about it? When I Google the version number I've got currently installed, I can find a few entries listed; when I click on any of them, they direct me to pages that no longer exist. Could anyone at Sony give me input on this? Thanks.
ANSWER: I checked the web site and the latest version that only reveals is the Up-date VAIO Care Update 8.4.3.07161. For this reason the 8.4.3.07161 model keeps on turning up. I can't really notify why Vaio Care 8.4.4.09181 automatically updates on your laptop, as you said on the previous post. What you can do is now to uninstall/reinstall VAIO Care then after reinstalling, obtain all the upgrades on the website.
I hope this helps.

In introducing its 2013 line-up of returning models (as well as the updated F700GS & F800GS), BMW has announced that it has made anti-locking braking systems (ABS) a standard option on all of its motorcycles. The move is a part of larger safety initiative called Safety 360, which sees the Bavarian company taking a three-pronged approach to rider safety by focusing on: safety technology in the vehicle itself, safety derived from rider equipment, and safety derived from rider training.
Pre-empting the likely introduction of laws making ABS required on all motorcycles in the European Union by 2016, BMW is the first motorcycle manufacturer to make the braking technology standard on all of its models. Fittingly, back in 1988 the German company was the first motorcycle manufacturer to introduce ABS to production motorcycles, and again is the market-leader in this space.

Ten PlayStation 3 games you may have missed
The Sony side of the street
Transformers: Fall of Cybertron
High Moon Studios' Transformers outings have earned a fair amount of respect, due mainly to the franchise authenticity and the fact that none of its games are typical Activision movie tie-ins. This successor to the fairly well-received War for Cybertron, continues to stick its finger up to Michael Bay's recent cash cows and does so through true Transformer grittiness.
Sure, it plays like the average shooter it is – with a serious hat tip to Gears of War – but you'll have more fun churning through its repetitive levels than you would wincing at Bay's cheese-ball Hollywood explosions. I did, anyway.
Players take control of an Autobot for half the game, before switching to the Decepticon dark side for the remainder. Without giving much away, the finale is a predictable but entertaining mish-mash of the two, where players are forced into choosing which side of the moral fence they lie. It's hardly a game that'll leave a lasting impression, but certainly has its merits and might be worth picking up for a rainy weekend of button bashing.
Price £25
Platforms PS3, Xbox 360, PC
More info Activision
The Unfinished Swan
This downloadable indie title is a hugely original concept that proves there is plenty of untapped innovation in the pool of games design. Players start off in a completely blank world, controlling an orphan that throws paint around in order to find his way.
You're actually on the hunt for a swan that went missing from one of your late mother's paintings and dived into the blank canvas in search of it. As the world around is unveiled, further features – such as chucking water to grow vines – must be discovered and used to solve puzzles. It isn't by any means a lengthy game, but it's certainly an enjoyable experience and one unlike any other on offer. You'll come away feeling like you've just had a lucid dream. ®

My Highlights from Art Los Angeles Contemporary 2014
Iris Marden
Whether sculpture, photography, site-specific installation, or public intervention, Ruben Ochoa's work is a manifestation of the urban environment he is surrounded by in the Southern California landscape, where he was born and raised. Using vernacular building materials collected from hardware stores, construction sites, and family businesses—even employing the labor skills of relatives for production—Ochoa recalls the concrete, dirt, and rebar of his Los Angeles landscape with a sophisticated-yet-playful elegance. In exploring the geography and physicality of the city, Ochoa addresses the boundaries of the space—curbs, freeways, chain-link fences—all marks of contention, displacement, and division of social classes, which ultimately speak to the social and economic climate of the city.

Hmmm. And she's on the Bat Pod. Interesting.
I saw the Trailer at Sherlock Holmes on Friday. Looks like the third one will be as good as the others, though I'm skeptical o Bane as a villian. It had heavy messaging that this was the last story - have they flat out said there will only be three? Or are they going with the comic storyline where Bruce is broken and someone new will need to take up the mantle for the next movie? Seems kind of a shame to just end at 3 since these latest versions have been done so well.
