Olly Murs Confirms Taylor Swift + Harry Styles Are Dating
In the world's most Capt'n Obvious move, British darling Olly Murs has confirmed what the entire world already knows and what Mario Lopez of 'X Factor' spilled the beans about recently. You ready? Wait for it, wait for it… Taylor Swift and Harry Styles of One Direction are dating!
You don't say. Didn't the photos of them holding hands or the pulling 'Dirty Dancing' moves at an afterparty convince you of their couplehood?
The adorbs Murs actually confirmed the news in the cutest way.
He was playing the "Kill, Marry or Snog" game, where he has to assign one of those activities to three different ladies. If you're not up on the British slang, snog is, well, the no-pants dance, to borrow a phrase from Ron Burgundy!
Murs had to chose between killing, marrying or snogging Florence Welch, Swift or Pink.
While he said he couldn't kill anyone since he is not the killing type, he changed the rules to "avoid" instead of kill.
What Murs said is below:
I would avoid Taylor because she is dating one of my friends, she is going out with Harry Styles, so I couldn't obviously go near Taylor because that's his missus.
And there you have it.
Directioners, back away from the sharp objects and from the ledges. Do not hurl yourselves into oncoming traffic at Murs' use of the word "missus." That's another British term for "lady love." Swift and Styles aka Haylor are not married, as that term might suggest, so chillax, please.
We know the confirmation (along with the photos of them holding hands) is a bitter enough pill to swallow. But don't do anything rash.
Be happy that Harry is happy.

EUGENE, Ore. -- Oregon cornerback Cliff Harris was suspended Monday after he was pulled over for several infractions, including driving on a suspended license and driving without insurance.
In a statement released by the school, Ducks coach Chip Kelly suspended Harris pending further review and he will not be able to take part in any football-related activities.
Eugene police said that Harris was stopped on a city street Monday afternoon after an officer noted he wasn't wearing a seatbelt, for which he was also cited.
He faces fines in excess of $952. The car he was driving, which police say belongs to a relative, was impounded.
Harris, an All-American who broke up 23 passes and averaged 18.8 yards per punt return last season, was also ticketed in June by Oregon State Police for driving 118 mph on Interstate 5 on a suspended license.
Harris, who was driving a rented car he says was lent to him by a university employee, was suspended indefinitely after the incident by Kelly and did not play in Oregon's season-opening loss to LSU at Cowboys Stadium.
He was allowed to practice with the team during that earlier suspension and was reinstated just before Oregon's 69-20 victory over Nevada on Sept. 10.
Harris' family paid the $1,620 in fines for the citations. The university compliance office was looking into whether NCAA rules were broken when the school employee allowed him to use the rental car.
Later, a dashboard video released by the Oregon State Police revealed that Oregon quarterback Darron Thomas was a passenger in the rental car.
Harris has nine tackles in six games this season for the No. 7 Ducks (6-1, 4-0 Pac-12.) He also has an interception and nine punt returns for 68 yards.
In Oregon's 45-2 victory over Colorado last weekend, the Buffaloes tackled Harris on a punt return in the end zone for a safety. He was also flagged before the game started for taunting, which allowed Colorado to kick off from the 45 to start the game.
As a sophomore last season, Harris set an Oregon record with four punt returns for touchdowns. He became known not just for his explosive speed, but for his colorful quotes: He coined the term "The Natty" to describe the BCS national championship game.

The United States' 2-1 win over Ghana in Monday's World Cup game netted a ratings best, according to early numbers from Nielsen.
The contest that started at 3 p.m. scored an overnight household rating of 7.0 from Nielsen's 56 metered markets, the highest number for a men's World Cup match on the cable network since it began receiving local stats for the tournament in 1998.
Complete national viewership and demographic numbers for the match-up won't be available until later Tuesday.
The previous record-holder was the 2010 contest between the U.S. and Algeria, which notched a household rating of 4.0 and averaged 6.16 million viewers total.
The top-five markets for Monday's victory were Washington, D.C. (11.8), New York (10.2), Hartford-New Haven (10.1), Boston (10.0) and Columbus, Ohio (8.9).
In broadcast television, Fox won the night in prime time with new episodes of "Masterchef" and "24: Live Another Day."
The network averaged 5.38 million viewers overall and a rating of 1.6 among the key 18- to 49-year-old audience. The Gordon Ramsay cooking show was up 20% from last week to a 1.8 in 18-49, while the "24" reboot fell a 10th of a point to a 1.5. In 18-49, a ratings point equals about 1.3 million viewers.
Second place in the advertiser-coveted demo was ABC, where "The Bachelorette" fell 11% to a 1.6 and "Mistresses" was flat at a 0.9. "The Bachelorette" drew 6.1 million viewers total, making it the most-watched show of the night on the four major networks.
NBC's "American Ninja Warrior" scored a 1.6, down slightly week-to-week, and CBS only showed reruns, other than a special "48 Hours."

The game is out in Japan, and it's being completely brutalized in the reviews on Amazon.co.jp. Lot's of 1 star ratings. People still like the story and characters, but apparently it suffers from absolutely horrible load time issues. In addition the 3D character models are animated extremely awkwardly, worse than fan-made stuff you find on the internet. Falcom did not handle the transition to 3D well at all. These are the lowest review scores I've ever seen for a Kiseki game...So maybe that will make you feel better about the fact that we'll never get it.Now where's SC?
Wait. Even the PS3 version had absolutely horrible load time issues?
(Also, SC's coming).
So maybe that will make you feel better about the fact that we'll never get it.
http://gematsu.com/2013/10/next-legend-of-heroes-game-aiming-for-june-2014Just to reiterate, the Kiseki series has been running for the last ten years. Meanwhile, we're still waiting for game #2 to drop. Even with thrice the effort constantly and solely devoted to localizing this series over the next decade, we would still never see even half of the series localized.
...what'cha gunna do?
Though as I commented in that very article, I'm concerned about whether or not they would actually be able to release a quality product by June. Sen no Kiseki just came out and its release was kind of a mess. Though I guess a lot of its problems have been patched and they're still working on patching it, suddenly they're going to make the entire next game in less than 9 months?
No, it's Xseed's fault these games haven't sold! Xseed is holding the series back and preventing other companies from localizing it! Never mind that the games went unlocalized for years precisely because nobody else wanted to take on a project of this magnitude...it's still Xseed's fault!Sorry, I've been reading too many idiotic comments elsewhere on the web...

The Internal Revenue Service's watchdog told top Treasury officials
around June 2012 he was investigating allegations the tax agency had
targeted conservative groups, for the first time indicating that Obama
administration officials were aware of the explosive matter in the
midst of the president's re-election campaign.
The disclosure to the Treasury general counsel and the deputy
secretary was a cursory one, according to J. Russell George, the
Treasury inspector general for tax administration. He said he didn't
reveal conclusions of the probe, which was in its early stages, and
his disclosure came as part of a routine update to Treasury leaders.
At the time, Republican lawmakers were complaining publicly about
alleged IRS targeting of tea-party groups.
The revelation nonetheless raised a fresh set of questions about who
was aware of the problem within the Obama administration. It was one
of several new details that emerged during a contentious four-hour
House committee hearing Friday, held one week after an IRS official
revealed at a legal conference that the agency had taken "absolutely
inappropriate" actions in targeting conservative groups seeking
tax-exempt status for often heavy-handed scrutiny.
Among other disclosures: The conference revelation was itself
stage-managed. Ousted IRS acting Commissioner Steven Miller testified
he planned it with the director of the division in question.
Republican lawmakers expressed amazement that IRS officials didn't
tell them first.
The hearing left numerous other fundamental questions unanswered,
however, including who ordered the targeting and why it continued so
long, pointing to a protracted investigation ahead. Mr. Miller
conceded the agency likely disciplined the wrong employee in one
effort to address the problem. Another was reassigned in the agency's
Cincinnati office, but he couldn't provide the employee's name.
Following the hearing, House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Dave
Camp (R., Mich.), who led the proceedings, expressed frustration and
left open the possibility of issuing subpoenas to the IRS. "I think
the most interesting revelation was the overall arrogance of the IRS
and the lack of information from somebody who was in charge," Mr. Camp
The Treasury Department, in a statement, confirmed officials were
notified in June 2012 that an audit had begun. It added an underlined
sentence, "Treasury strongly supports the independent oversight of its
three Inspectors General, and it does not interfere in ongoing IG
Treasury also said Neal Wolin, the deputy secretary, didn't notify
anyone outside of Treasury that the audit was under way and that Mr.
Wolin and Treasury Secretary Jacob Lew "learned about [the inspector
general's] findings when they were reported publicly last week." A
White House aide said Friday that Treasury officials didn't share the
information with White House officials.
White House officials say they learned about the targeting of
conservative groups from the report, and not before. President Barack
Obama on Thursday said, "I can assure you that I certainly did not
know anything about the IG report before the IG report had been leaked
through the press."
At the hearing, lawmakers of both parties expressed anger that IRS
officials didn't reveal the problems to them in 2012. GOP lawmakers,
after receiving complaints from tea-party groups about IRS scrutiny,
asked then-commissioner Douglas Shulman about that in March 2012. He
testified before the Ways and Means committee then that there was
"absolutely no targeting," but he didn't correct his testimony after
learning of the problems in May, according to congressional
investigators. Mr. Shulman couldn't be reached for comment.
Several other IRS officials, including Mr. Miller, didn't disclose the
problems to lawmakers in letters and testimony. Mr. Miller Friday
cited the continuing inspector-general investigation, even though he
obtained an internal IRS investigation in May 2012 that came to some
of the same conclusions as the inspector general report.
"I was not going to go there because I did not have full possession of
the facts, sir," Mr. Miller said at one point.
In sometimes combative testimony, Mr. Miller also took exception to
the idea that the IRS had engaged in targeting conservative groups,
pointing out that groups representing other ideologies also were
caught up in the extra review.
The inspector general's report said that based on a statistical
sample, "all cases with Tea Party, Patriots or 9/12 in their names
were forwarded" for extra scrutiny. Many of the cases were delayed for
Lawmakers of both parties questioned his response.
"Throughout this time, the IRS leadership has demonstrated a total
disregard for the oversight role of the Congress and this committee,"
said Rep. Sander Levin (D., Mich.), the committee's top Democrat. Mr.
Shulman "had an obligation to return to this committee and set this
record straight. So did Mr. Miller."
"How was that not misleading this committee?" said Rep. Paul Ryan (R.,
Wis.) to Mr. Miller. "How can we not conclude that you misled this
"I did not mislead the committee," Mr. Miller responded, adding later,
"I answered the question truthfully."
Messrs. Miller and George, the inspector general, said so far they had
discovered no evidence that the targeting was politically motivated,
and Mr. Miller described it as a bungled way to try and screen
Later Friday, the woman who posed the question at a conference to IRS
official Lois Lerner—the moment last week that first revealed the
problems at the IRS—said Ms. Lerner planted the query. Washington
lawyer Celia Roady said in a statement that Ms. Lerner provided her
the question to ask. She added that Ms. Lerner "did not tell me, and I
did not know, how she would answer the question."
The IRS didn't respond to requests for comment from Ms. Lerner, who
runs the exempt-organizations unit at the agency.
Mr. Miller said the IRS, meanwhile, had "called to get on the
calendar" to also brief the Ways and Means committee—a statement
Republicans met with barely disguised disbelief.
Mr. Camp and other GOP lawmakers suggested a pattern of efforts to use
the IRS to attack conservatives. Those include a White House
official's discussion in mid-2010, during a briefing with reporters,
of the purported tax-filing status of Koch Industries. Its owners are
big donors to conservative causes. The tax-filing status of businesses
is often confidential. The White House said in 2010 that the
official's statement "was not based on any review of tax filings." It
promised not to use the example in the future.
In an interview, Mr. Levin said the IG's report to Treasury officials
constituted only "a brief reference," that he doubted was communicated
up the chain.

RALEIGH � Earl Wolff gained a reputation as a hard-hitting safety at North Carolina State.
He showed his speed this week at the NFL Combine.
�I turned a lot of heads,� he said upon returning to N.C. State�s football facility. �I impressed a lot of people. I�m pretty sure I surprised a lot of people. My draft stock went up (because of) it.�
Wolff�s performance during drills in Indianapolis received some rave reviews among the experts analyzing results. Wolff might be considered a late-round draft prospect next month.
Wolff tied for the longest broad jump among safeties at 134 inches. His 4.44-second time in the 40-yard dash was second for safeties, while his 39-inch vertical jump rated fourth among the safeties.
Many of his speed numbers compared favorably to cornerbacks, something that could give Wolff a boost on draft lists.
�I move like a safety,� he said. �I know how to (play there, too).�
Wolff has spent weeks training in Boca Raton, Fla., with other draft prospects. That list included N.C. State cornerback David Amerson out of Greensboro Dudley.
Wolff said he knew he fared well in the combine, giving him a boost in confidence. He�ll participate in N.C. State�s pro day for scouts March 20.
�I�m really pumped up,� he said. �I�m ready to see how the story unfolds.�
Elon University receiver Aaron Mellette had a solid if not spectacular performance based on numbers. He was 10th among receivers in the broad jump at 123 inches. His 4.54-second clocking in the 40-yard dash was considered a good mark.
Others from area colleges had notables during the combine. Those included:
-- Wake Forest fullback Tommy Bohanon, who�s 36 repetitions in the 225-pound bench press the most of any running back and fourth-most of all participants for any position. Only five other running backs eclipsed 25 repetitions and only one other reached 30.
-- North Carolina running back Giovani Bernard was third among running backs with a 4.12-second timing in the 20-yard shuttle.
-- North Carolina offensive guard Jonathan Cooper was second among offensive linemen with 35 repetitions in the 225-pound bench press. N.C. State offensive guard Zach Allen was fifth in that category with 32 repetitions.

"I want to do it again!"
"That was so fun!"
"I want to do it again!"
"That was so fun!"
These exclamations of excitement could be heard over the roar of aircraft engines Saturday at the Cajun Fly-In in Houma.
About 20 children, ages 8 to 17, got the chance to see south Louisiana from the air after taking off from the Houma Airbase, part of the Young Eagles First Flight program. The event was hosted by Houma's Bill Fornof Memorial Chapter 513 of the Experimental Aircraft Association.
The chapter formed in the mid-'70s, participating in air shows that included the Blue Angels, Bill and Corkey Fornof and other groups.
The annual fly-in was started about 10 years ago to promote aviation education and show off the airport's modern facilities to locals.
The fly-in brought planes and enthusiasts from all over the region. By noon, about 30 planes of all kinds had gathered — 10 more than last year — from larger passenger planes to tiny one-seaters built in home garages.
The event also attracted antique cars, military vehicles and fire trucks from local stations.
Newton Boudreaux, an EAA member who helped organize the event, said he's happy it is growing. Saturday's Cajun Fly-In saw about 200 attendees by noon.
"It's been great so far," Boudreaux said. "We had more kids than expected, so everyone didn't get to fly."
Boudreaux said some pilots have agreed to come again soon to fly the children who missed the chance at a ride.
"I've had to break so many hearts today," volunteer and Boy Scout Committee member Regina Trax said, waving a stack of applications from about a half dozen kids and adults who didn't get a chance to fly. "They cried. I was like 'I didn't sign up for this.' "
The kids did get up-close tours of the planes and helicopters, including Coast Guard helicopters based in Belle Chasse and used for search-and-rescue missions, environmental patrols and other purposes.
Houma's Regional Military Museum had some of its World War II-era uniforms, vehicles and weapons on display.
A U.S. Army Jeep caught the attention of two little boys, who spent most of their time pretending to drive.
"It's so cool," 5-year-old Job Lyons said. "I like the Army stuff."
As he spoke, his 3-year-old brother, Isaac, made engine noises, turning the steering wheel and shaking his body as he imagined driving down a bumpy road.
"OK. It's time to fly," Isaac said, his attention taken away by the revving of a helicopter engine preparing for flight.
His mom, Samantha, said she'd make sure her boys get the chance to fly next year.
"We do this every year to get kids interested in flying," said local aviator Charlie Hammonds, one of the pilots taking Young Eagles to the sky.
"That's what it's all about, and they have a wonderful time. Everything today has been great," he said.

World's Largest Network of Marine Reserves Suspended
On 13th December 2013, the Australian Government took a major step backwards for marine conservation, suspending the implementation of management plans for the 33 new marine parks, including parks in the Coral Sea, the Kimberley and the Great Australian Bight. These management plans outline the levels of protection the parks provide to fragile ocean habitat and the marine species within them.
It is critical that Members of Parliament (MPs) understand how important marine parks are to Australians and the world. Please send your letter now to ensure your voice is heard.
After 15 years of extensive scientific investigation and the most thorough public consultation process in Australia's history, protection of these parks was to come into effect on 1st July 2014. Australia's decision effectively freezes the introduction of any protection while the Government conducts a review of the science behind the plans and undertakes yet more consultation. This additional government process is expected to take up to two years during which the future of the protected marine sanctuaries that are located within marine parks will be decided.
Marine sanctuaries provide a safe haven for some of our most threatened species including sharks, rays and turtles; helping ensure marine ecosystems are protected for years to come Ensure your voice is heard. Send a quick letter now to show how important protecting the marine environment is to you.
It's imperative we don't let all this hard work go to waste. We must let the Government know how much we care about the protection of the marine environment.

Last year, I mentioned a lesson I learned from one of my CS professors many years ago:
He began by recommending every project start by hiring a mathematician for a week or two to study the problem. If a mathematician could find an interesting property or algorithm, then it would be money well spent, and drastically reduce the time/money/effort needed to develop a system.
A few weeks ago, I came across a paper about Arrows in Javascript. It's an interesting adaptation of arrows to do asynchronous, event driven programming in Javascript. It makes an excellent example of this dictum.
Here's the problem in a nutshell. There's a very interesting language lurking underneath Javascript. It's an object oriented language with namespaces, closures, and dynamic typing. Doug Crockford has written and presented these concepts over the last few years.
This paper by a team at UMD starts by bringing continuation passing to Javascript, and implementing arrows on top of that. Once arrows are available, building a library for asynchronous event programming is much easier than brute force chaining of event callbacks. For example, drag and drop programming can be specified common method chaining:
.run ()
The plumbing inside the library can be a little hairy, especially if you find CPS or arrows befuddling. But the exposed API is quite elegant and appears to be easy to use. It'll be interesting to watch the Javascript library space to see when and where it pops up.

Children's sports can start out as an enjoyable activity, but an overly competitive environment can quickly turn the fun into a chore.
American Academy of Pediatrics Report
Pointing to the increasing pressure and competition involved in children's athletics, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends that parents do not push children to specialize in one sport, at least until they reach adolescence.
Overall, any physical activity is better than watching too much television. Organized sports contribute to physical fitness while developing basic motor skills. In addition, it can help your child with learn leadership skills, self confidence, and the importance of teamwork and sportsmanship. It will also teach them the importance of success and failure.
In making its recommendation, the AAP cited research showing that young children who participate in a variety of athletic activities and delay specializing in a particular sport until adolescence tend to:
- Have fewer sports-related injuries
- Be more consistent performers
- Participate in sports for a longer period of time
Positive Steps for Parents
In some cases, parents pressure their children into playing sports and having a "win at all costs" attitude. This type of pressure, though, takes away the many benefits of participating in an organized sport, like being part of a team, exercising, competing, and having fun.
There are steps that you can take, though, to highlight these benefits:
Promote Variety
Instead of having your child specialize in one sport, encourage him to participate in various sports and/or athletic activities.
Evaluate the Benefits and Potential Harm
Organized, competitive sports for young children can also have its down side. Consider a series of questions to help determine whether your children's athletic activities are beneficial or harmful:
- Is the activity fun?
- Does my child have friends on the sports team or group?
- Is my child participating because they enjoy doing so?
- Does my child look forward to going to practice and/or games?
- Am I pressuring my child to participate in a sport or athletic activity?
- Am I deriving more enjoyment or fulfillment from my child's athletic activities than my child is?
Here are other tips:
- While praising your child for and pointing out the benefits of winning, stress the greater importance of simply enjoying the activity.
- Applaud your child's good efforts.
- Ask your child if the team won, but only in addition to questions such as: "What was the best part of the practice or game? " or "Did you have fun?"
- Do not pressure your child. Instead, offer to help your child practice and improve his or her skills.
Evaluate the Coach and the League
Make certain your child's coach and league are creating a safe and enjoyable atmosphere. Ask yourself the following questions:
- Is the coach putting too much pressure to win on my child and their teammates?
- In addition to giving proper athletic training, is the coach teaching good sportsmanship and proper and acceptable behavior?
- Is the coach pushing the children beyond the physical limitations appropriate for their age?
- Does the coach emphasize a team effort by working toward a common goal?
- Does the coach yell or belittle team members when they make mistakes?
If you discover that a coach or league is violating any of the above ground rules and safeguards, speak to the coach or supervising organization about the problem and, if possible, offer to help. If, after doing so, the problem is not solved, remove your child from the situation and find another team or league.
Show Good Sportsmanship Yourself
In addition to coaches, parents must practice good sportsmanship and acceptable behavior when watching their children participate in sports and athletic activities.

Blac Chyna has done another Kim Kardashian. First it was the hair changing to look just like Kim's, now it seems like Blac Chyna, who is due to give birth in the next few weeks has done another copycat move of her sister-to-be.
Chyna has starred on the cover of Paper Magazine topless, adorned with her own real-life gold halo snapchat feature making her look all golden and luminous.
The 28-year-old forgoes all clothing on the latest issue of Paper and shows off her very round baby bump! So, was Kim pissed about it?
Paper Managing Editor Abby Schreiber told E! News: 'Kim actually came by the shoot, which was really nice to see her giving encouragement to Chyna and talking to her.'
Schreiber went on to say Kim was very talkative and not only clearly gave her blessings for the shoots but seemed to be giving Chyna some sisterly advice.
Meanwhile, the soon to be mother of two gushed in the mag about her fiance Rob Kardashian, explaining how while she may be a private person she likes to share her love.
'I don't mind sharing a funny video of him or some pictures with my followers, because I want to show everybody his greatness,' Chyna said. 'He brightens up my whole day.'
The always provocative star went on to discuss her upcoming reality show and what she hopes her fans will get out of it. 'I'm funny and smart, and they'll see me as a mom with several businesses just keeping everything together.
I'm looking forward to showing my relationship with Rob, our day to day, our struggles and what we're dealing with, positive and negative.'
She continued: 'I hope when people think about Blac Chyna, they think of a mogul and entrepreneur, a mother and a badass bitch.'
Well, two out of four so far ain't bad, eh?

The DiversICARE Disaster & Relief Foundation Raised More Than $100,000 for Diversicare Team Members Affected by Hurricanes Harvey & Irma
BRENTWOOD, Tenn., Sept. 15, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The DiversICARE Disaster & Relief Foundation (the "Foundation"), and Diversicare Healthcare Services, Inc. ("Diversicare") (NASDAQ:DVCR), today jointly announced that the Foundation has raised over $100,000 for those affected by Hurricanes Harvey and Irma.
When Hurricane Harvey devastated the Texas coast, Diversicare team members at its Yorktown and Houston area nursing centers were heavily impacted. Some of them lost everything. In Florida, in the Wauchula area Diversicare team members suffered great loss due to Hurricane Irma.
As a result, the Diversicare family and friends donated money to the DiversICARE Disaster & Relief Foundation to help support the Diversicare team members during this difficult time. The Foundation has already raised more than $100,000, and that figure is expected to climb in the coming days and weeks.
"Every penny of these donations will go directly to the Diversicare Texas and Florida team members who lost their homes, cars and personal belongings to the hurricanes and subsequent flooding. We are amazed by the generosity of the donors and are so grateful for their contributions," said a spokesman for the Foundation.
"More than 400 Diversicare team members at these centers, combined, worked around the clock during the storms to provide care for our patients and residents. Some team members even slept in cars in our parking lots, so they wouldn't miss their shifts. These heroic actions led to no evacuations for our affected centers and the opportunity to provide care for our patients and residents in place. We are blessed to have such a dedicated team of caregivers," said Kelly Gill, Chief Executive Officer of Diversicare.
The DiversICARE Disaster & Relief Foundation was created for the sole purpose of providing relief to current and former Diversicare team members who are suffering due to various hardships.

sgtToni95 wrote:your answer on heat was "Heat will behave as heat are supposed to behave" (really MY bad if i didn't understand this) which means... nothing regarding my questions.
Ok mate, so I will once again try to illustrate what I mean shortly or in a more simple way.. just so we could hopefully get over this loop.
- M10 = has hit and run tactics ability, has flank speed, can ambush, has HEAT shells = pure AT role.
And I really like how Hawks managed to describe the ridiculous hit and run tactics ability btw :P Anyway... let's continue:
- M36 (not B1) = NO hit and run tactics ability, has flank speed but after engine upgrade, can ambush too but has no HEAT shells = still pure AT role.
- Achilles = has hit and run tactics ability, has flank speed, can ambush, has HE rounds = AT role and anti-infantry role too + available for all CW docs.
Now, what I was thinking.. is to keep the Achilles as pure AT role only. Regardless how HEAT shells would behave, as I already consider the Achilles very dangerous against all Axis tanks! But if you like to hear some specifications on the HEAT rounds, then they should have short range just like any other HEAT shells.. great penetration chances but not very cheap! in short; it should be very similar to the M10 Wolverine's HEAT.
I hope I've finally answered what you want...

Anibal realizes Fenway dream in Game 1 of ALCS
BOSTON -- Anibal Sanchez used to dream about pitching at Fenway Park in a big game.
Oh, he was a tourist, too. He remembers sitting in the seats on top of the Green Monster once. But he remembers the guys on the mound more.View Full Game Coverage
BOSTON -- Anibal Sanchez used to dream about pitching at Fenway Park in a big game.
Oh, he was a tourist, too. He remembers sitting in the seats on top of the Green Monster once. But he remembers the guys on the mound more.View Full Game Coverage
"I played in two leagues really close to here," Sanchez said. "I played [in 2004] in Lowell, Mass., really close to here. And Portland, Maine [where he played in 2005] is really close, too. When I was in the Minor Leagues, I remember I came to a lot of games [when] Pedro Martinez [was] pitching. And I say one day I would like to have the uniform and be here. But that's what you think at that moment."
Nearly a decade later, he's got his big game at Fenway to open the American League Championship Series. When he finally takes the mound there Saturday night (live on FOX at 8 p.m. ET), however, he'll have the other uniform on.
Long before the Jose Iglesias trade, there was the Sanchez deal, sending him, Hanley Ramirez and two prospects to the Marlins. The Red Sox picked up Josh Beckett, Mike Lowell and a World Series championship in 2007. Sanchez got a chance to blossom in South Florida until he became the veteran Marlins starter on the move last summer.
Detroit gave up prospects to trade for him, went to the World Series last October, signed him to a new contract and completed the American League's toughest rotation. Now the Tigers' path back to the Fall Classic takes him back through Boston. And his opposing starter will be Jon Lester, his old teammate in Portland in 2005.

|Game breakdown
|Why he'll win: Has allowed three earned runs or fewer in eight of nine postseason appearances
|Why he'll win: Career 3.10 ERA in September/October
|Pitcher beware: Tigers batters have a lifetime .378 average off Lester
|Pitcher beware: Has never pitched in Fenway Park
|Bottom line: Get ahead early in count and establish cutter
|Bottom line: Take advantage of facing hitters for the first time, keep them off-balance
"I think we were probably completely different pitchers back then -- naive, young, stupid, throwers," Lester said. "But obviously [I've been] watching him over the past couple of years in Florida and now Detroit really mature and figure out who he is."
Sanchez has long since made his peace with that part of his career. He has faced the Red Sox once, back in his rookie season of 2006, but not since.
"I think I'm a baseball open mind," he said Friday in the interview room at Fenway Park. "I think everything is business. The Red Sox needed a couple people. At the end, it's a business. I'm feeling good right now. I like my team, and I'm really good over here."
He's stingy good, having won the ERA title (2.57) in his first full season in the American League. And if not for Justin Verlander and Max Scherzer on the same staff, he'd be looming as an ace against his old squad to open the ALCS.
Logistically, the Tigers had no choice but to start Sanchez. The other three members of their postseason rotation -- Scherzer, Verlander and Doug Fister -- all pitched in one of the last two games of the Division Series. As an only option, though, they couldn't have laid it out much better.
"He led this league in earned run average," Tigers manager Jim Leyland said. "That's pretty impressive."
So was his strikeout rate. With 202 strikeouts over 182 innings, he fanned 10 batters per nine innings. Two more strikeouts for the season would've matched him with 21-game winner Scherzer for the team lead. Had he not missed three weeks with a strained right shoulder, he would've had a chance for a stellar season.
It would've have rivaled a Pedro Martinez season, but it was in that mold. To Lester, however, Sanchez doesn't have to compare himself to anybody.
"I think that's everybody's kind of nemesis when you get called up is figuring out who you are as a pitcher," Lester said. "You try to model yourself off of a lot of people growing up and in the Minor Leagues, and when you get to the big leagues you have to figure out who you are. And I think he's done a good job of that. Obviously, his stats speak for themselves."
Sanchez was a postseason workhorse for the Tigers last October, which made his struggles in Game 3 of the Division Series look foreign. With a fastball he couldn't throw to his spots and offspeed pitches that hung, he gave up more home runs to the A's (three) than he gave up in his final six regular-season starts combined.
The next day, he started getting ready for this, holding faith that the Tigers could dig out of a Division Series deficit and return to the ALCS. He's got his chance now, and yet it's a familiar foe he hasn't seen in years.
"It's a big day for me, especially because I'm going to start the series again," he said. "This team, a pretty good team. But I think every day is different. I need to keep working. I need to be focused tomorrow."

Race came up again during a Monday night meeting of the Alamance-Burlington Board of Education as one reason families request transfers from one school to another.
Before the board discussed and approved a transfer policy regulating how the system will handle requests to attend schools in another zone, local pastor Edward McDowell shared statistics showing a large imbalance in the racial makeup of some schools.
At Cummings High School, he said, 85 percent of students are black or Latino. That compares to Southern Alamance and Western Alamance High Schools, which are 80 percent white.
�I wonder if your work is being spent on the wrong problem,� he said, suggesting examining how attendance zones are drawn could be a better first step.
Among school board members, Patsy Simpson and Brad Evans have raised the issue during the past several years.
Discussions of race aside, more specific talk about school crowding and how to define it did the most to shape the vote.
It wasn�t clear that everyone voted audibly, but Vicki Stafford, executive assistant to the school board, recorded the vote as 7-0. When a board member does not respond either verbally or otherwise when a vote is cast, the member�s vote is counted as a �yes.�
In what seemed an attempt to address Simpson�s concerns the policy does not do enough to reduce crowding, board member Jackie Cole made a motion incorporating Simpson�s suggestions that crowding be defined both at the classroom level and school-wide, with the impact on �core� facilities such as cafeterias taken into account.
Simpson had called for eliminating reasons other than health and safety as factors allowing transfers to be considered, but they stayed in the policy. Those include potential impact on academic performance and providing evidence of buying a house in another attendance zone.
The policy says students who ask for and get a transfer from one zone to another may not participate in athletics for 365 days.
School board member Pamela Thompson said the school board needs to determine from the public �the why� behind people asking for transfers to different attendance zones. Thompson said the board should consider anything the system can do to improve public perception of schools from which transfers are being requested.
�I gave you the why,� McDowell said from the audience.
Simpson made some comments comparable to McDowell�s.
�Why is everybody leaving Graham High School to go to Southern High School,� she asked, with others leaving east Burlington for Western.
Board chairman Tony Rose said either approving the policy or voting it down while keeping the old one would let administrators know how to plan for 2013-2014. He suggested the board and system can consider further changes after a transition period, with input from the community at forums or other venues taken into account.

NEW DELHI: India on Tuesday took a decisive step towards countering China's assertive power, by committing to help Vietnam's defence modernization, a move that will resonate unpleasantly in Beijing.
After his meeting with visiting Vietnamese Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung, Narendra Modi said, "Our defence cooperation with Vietnam is among our most important ones. India remains committed to the modernization of Vietnam's defence and security forces. This will include expansion of our training programme, which is already very substantial, joint-exercises and cooperation in defence equipment. We will quickly operationalise the $100 million line of credit that will enable Vietnam acquire new naval vessels from India."
For the first time, India sent clear signals that it may be willing to sell the Brahmos short range cruise missiles to Vietnam, a long-standing demand by Hanoi. The previous Indian government was a little hesitant, citing reservations by Russia (which is a co-developer). Russia has now indicated its willingness. India will wait to enter the MTCR (Missile Technology Control Regime) before making a sale, but both countries have decisively crossed this hurdle.
Vietnam's importance to New Delhi was evident when President Pranab Mukherjee paid a state visit to that country, almost coinciding with Chinese President Xi Jinping's first visit to India.

Oh my god. That's so funny! I'm gonna have to pause it like a million times to get all the wordplay jokes. Did you write it and the coup and Patton gave you input on it or were they just down with the idea?? AND HOW THE FUCK DID YOU GET PATTON OSWALT!?!?!?!? Incredible. It looks like the funnest thing to shoot ever. Great job man, I thought it really elevated the song even though your original video was AWESOME too. I like how simple yet intricate the visual style is, putting the song in a lighter context that I honestly can't say I've seen in many artist approved hip hop videos ( a good example would be Zach Galifianakis' hilarious version of 'Can't Tell Me Nothing' by Kanye West). I hope this gets you a lot of attention to do more stuff with artists you admire, I'm sure it will because it shows real talent. I'd love to know a little more about how this came together and what kind of hijinks you got into with Patton. Ahhh what a great dude. Congrats Pete! I caught the magic clap from Ricky Jay once
I was actually just nervously trying to keep everything in order at the time, and my AD/art director - this goofy girl from Portland who recently got into art direction full time - was somehow just very funny and charming and developed a rapport, which made everyone at ease.

SAN FRANCISCO — For decades, former eight-term Bay Area Rep. Paul N. "Pete" McCloskey Jr. has dreamed of a Korean War battle moment he cannot shake: Peering into a trench he sees the terrified faces of his teenage opponents, clutching wicker baskets full of grenades.
He empties his weapon.
Last week, at 86, he at last had an opportunity for personal reconciliation. As a member of a small delegation led by Donald Gregg, a former U.S. ambassador to South Korea, McCloskey traveled to Pyongyang with a singular intention.
"My primary hope was that I could salute, shake hands and embrace one of those kids who fought against us," said McCloskey, a decorated war hero who now farms olives and citrus in Yolo County and continues to work part time as a lawyer. "It's something I've wanted to do for 50 years."
It wasn't easy. Many have died. But North Korean officials called around and found a retired three-star general, in full regalia, working as a docent in the North Korean capital's imposing Victorious Fatherland War Museum.
Ji Young Choon was a 17-year-old machine gun platoon leader when his division drove through the South Korean town of Inje and the county of Yanggu, McCloskey would learn. McCloskey, a Marine second lieutenant who led six bayonet charges and came home to two Purple Hearts, the Silver Star and Navy Cross, was 23 and fought in the same theater.
Through an interpreter the men spoke, haltingly at first, in the museum courtyard. "He wondered, really, what we were doing there," McCloskey said with a laugh in San Francisco on Friday, after his long trip back to California. "I said I had been in the American Marines. That didn't impress him."
But when McCloskey asked the 81-year-old Ji how many times he had been wounded — Ji answered three — and deferentially offered that he had only been wounded twice, the ice cracked. As McCloskey rattled off the ridges and other geographic landmarks of his 1951 ordeal, the two men acknowledged a shared experience.
He returned the following day to continue the conversation. Then, McCloskey stepped back and saluted.
"I told him how bravely I thought his people had fought, and we embraced," said McCloskey, who served in Congress from 1967 to 1983, became the first Republican to oppose the Vietnam War and helped craft seminal environmental legislation.
"We ended up friends," he said. "We ended up agreeing that we don't want our grandchildren or great-grandchildren to fight, that war is hell and there's no glory in it."
McCloskey, who in 2007 became a Democrat, had accompanied Gregg and another colleague from the Chatsworth-based Pacific Century Institute, which works through private and public sector channels to improve relations with Pacific Rim nations, North Korea among them.
Gregg met McCloskey a dozen years ago at a war crimes inquiry. Now chairman of the Pacific Century Institute's board of directors, when organizing the trip to Pyongyang he turned to his old friend, a man with a near-legendary reputation in military circles for his battlefield bravery who turned conciliation into the cornerstone of his career.
"He was known as the Beowulf of the 5th Marines. But he wanted to make peace," Gregg said in an interview. "So we thought, what a terrific addition he would be. And he was tremendous."
Gregg conceded that he worried about how McCloskey might be received: Korean War veteran Merrill Newman of Palo Alto was arrested in the North Korean capital last fall and held for 42 days after he tried to make contact with former anti-communist guerrillas he had trained. But the purpose of the institute visit was openly stated as "bridge building" and dialogue. They took the chance.
Some media accounts suggested that the unofficial envoys had traveled to Pyongyang specifically to press for the release of prisoner Kenneth Bae, a U.S. citizen detained since 2012 and sentenced to hard labor. Gregg said that although they broached the topic and strongly recommended his immediate release, that was never the purpose of the trip.
Instead, the North Koreans laid out their national economic improvement plan, and asked for technical advice with the ins and outs of bid requests. The institute hopes to offer know-how through private volunteers.
Gregg, who last visited Pyongyang six years ago, said he was surprised at its vibrancy — new buildings, thriving restaurants, a flood of cellphones. Yet he said the most moving aspect of the trip was watching the personal bond blossom between two men who had battled on opposite sides of a painful war.
It was, Gregg said, "diplomacy of the best kind."
To McCloskey's wife, Helen, once his congressional staffer, it was a significant step on a lifelong road.
"This has been something that has been in his mind and heart for decades," she said. "Like many vets who served in combat, he has PTSD," also known as post-traumatic stress disorder. "It's the plain and simple truth. The recurring dreams, the kids in the trench."
On the advice of a psychologist, McCloskey years ago wrote a letter to those young boys, the ones he had killed after fending off a bayonet charge in hand-to-hand combat, the ones whose faces he cannot forget.
But what he really needed, Helen McCloskey said, was to stand face to face with a contemporary who had experienced the same war, to make human contact. The chances, she said, "seemed to be about nil" — until the invitation arrived.
"For Pete, psychologically and emotionally, to be able to embrace an enemy combatant, it's healing and it's profound," she said. "The residue of war, particularly fought so closely and personally as with Pete's bayonet assaults, never leaves a soldier's psyche," but the encounter might just "allow him to live a fuller and less traumatized life."

Inflation AND Political Unrest!
Now that the Federal Reserve has grudgingly begun to acknowledge inflation—and how could it not, with oil over $100 a barrel, "beans in the teens," and gold near $1,000 an ounce?—a different contingent of the Powers That Be may be forced to likewise pay attention to what's happening with the food supply around the world.
That's because rice is now in short supply. And that's not even the bad news. The bad news is that a shortage of rice, unlike the recent shortage of corn in our Midwest, can, and is, causing political unrest.
Here are a few excerpts from the New York Times' report this weekend.
High Rice Cost Creating Fears of Asia Unrest
By KEITH BRADSHER
Published: March 29, 2008
HANOI — Rising prices and a growing fear of scarcity have prompted some of the world's largest rice producers to announce drastic limits on the amount of rice they export.
The price of rice, a staple in the diets of nearly half the world's population, has almost doubled on international markets in the last three months. That has pinched the budgets of millions of poor Asians and raised fears of civil unrest.
Shortages and high prices for all kinds of food have caused tensions and even violence around the world in recent months. Since January, thousands of troops have been deployed in Pakistan to guard trucks carrying wheat and flour. Protests have erupted in Indonesia over soybean shortages, and China has put price controls on cooking oil, grain, meat, milk and eggs.
Food riots have erupted in recent months in Guinea, Mauritania, Mexico, Morocco, Senegal, Uzbekistan and Yemen. But the moves by rice-exporting nations over the last two days — meant to ensure scarce supplies will meet domestic needs — drove prices on the world market even higher this week.
There's more—much more—to the story, including political panic in the Philippines and export reductions by Vietnam, India, Egypt, and Cambodia.
Good thing our Consumer Price Index excludes food as well as energy. Unfortunately, you can't adjust hunger for food, too.

Barrons did an interesting article this weekend saying that the commodity boom is going to fall ASAP. I guess all these excerpts are wrong, and there is no shortage, it's just hedge funds and speculators driving agriculture prices higher.
