Question: How is this any different than sponsoring someone in a "Walk for ...."?
Considering that this event already happened from August 27th-Sept 1st, I don't think you have to worry about saying anything at this point.
Mass Effect 3 wasn't released until earlier in this month, so it would have been very interesting had he been intending to play it this past August.

Party pics: Farmington Faerie Ball
Fairy wings of all shapes and sizes were proudly on display during the inaugural Farmington Faerie Ball. Those not donning fairy wings to the ball wore costumes inspired by healthy doses of Victorian literature, mysticism and fantasy. The Faerie Ball marked the conclusion of the first Farmington Faerie Gathering. The day long gathering was put together by local merchants and included a fairy tea party and scavenger hunt though downtown Farmington.

Graham Watson
Family of Jameis Winston's accuser to hold press conference Friday, one day before Heisman crowning
Graham Watson at Dr. Saturday1 day agoThe family of Jameis Winston's accuser will hold a press conference Friday in Florida, according to an email sent out to the media.
It will be the first media conference the family has held since the story went public last month and the first words from the family of the accuser since the very generic statement it released following the announcement that Winston wouldn't be charged.
On Dec. 5, Florida State Attorney Willie Meggs announced that he did not find enough evidence to charge Winston with a crime. Meggs noted that the accuser's statements were not consistent and that he didn't feel like she would have been a credible witness had the case gone to trial.
Pranksters page Nick Saban at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport
Graham Watson at Dr. Saturday1 day agoAs rumors about Mack Brown's future at Texas continue to heat up , some enterprising fans are doing their best to keep Nick Saban's name in the coaching search mix, including by trolling Austin's airport.
Several reports surfaced Tuesday morning that someone paged Saban over the intercom at Austin-Bergstrom International Airport. The page said a car was waiting for him.
Multiple people have confirmed that Nick Saban was paged at the Austin airport this morning. THAT is hysterical.
— Geoff Ketchum (@gkketch) December 10, 2013
At #atx airport. Over intercom, just heard Nick Saban paged to meet his car at curb side check in. Hmmm... — Matthew Brownfield (@mbrownfield) December 10, 2013
Of course, this was just hilarious trolling. Saban didn't come running out of the terminal into a waiting town car. Sorry, wishful thinkers.
Oklahoma State cheerleader to face discipline after trying to trip Oklahoma player
Graham Watson at Dr. Saturday1 day agoThe Oklahoma State cheerleader who tried to trip an Oklahoma player following the Sooners' final touchdown of last week's Bedlam matchup will face discipline for his actions.
According to The Oklahoman, Jarid Atkinson stuck his foot out and tried to trip Oklahoma's Eric Striker as he celebrated the game-ending touchdowns of the Sooners' 33-24 win.
The Oklahoma State loss cost the Cowboys a Big 12 title and a BCS bowl berth.
Atkinson told OSU deputy athletic director Dave Martin that he was playfully sticking out his foot and not actually trying to trip the Sooner. But Martin didn't find the act funny.
Martin said in a statement to the Big 12 that Oklahoma State "does not condone, physical or verbally abusive acts toward anyone working, attending or competing in our athletic events."
Home theater recliners are the newest addition to bowl game swag
Graham Watson at Dr. Saturday2 days agoIt's bowl season and we all know what that means, time to criticize, mock and marvel at the ridiculous bowl gifts teams are getting just for making a bowl.
And this year, not only are players being showered with watches, Oakleys, high-end electronics and gift cards, they're also being treated to luxury recliners.
Yes, bowl gift giving has officially gone off the rails.
Several bowls will have gift suites set up where participants can choose from an array of gifts as long as they don't exceed the $550 NCAA-allowed award. And for the first time, players can choose home theater recliners that have built in USB ports so they can charge their devices.
Not a bad deal for the third-string kicker that gets to make the trip.
Police looking for those who rioted in East Lansing following Michigan State's win
Graham Watson at Dr. Saturday2 days agoFollowing Michigan State's upset of Ohio State in the Big Ten Championship on Saturday, Spartans fans took to the streets of East Lansing and decided it was a good idea to riot.
Fires were started, cars were overturned, couches burned and several arrests were made in the wee hours of Sunday morning. No one was injured.
Police are looking for anyone to identify people in various photographs (and possibly in the above video) to help with more arrests.
"If you burn a couch, if you break the law ... you are not one of us," said Scott Westerman, executive director of the MSU Alumni Association told the Detroit News.
An estimated 2,000 people gathered near Cedar Village apartments across from the MSU campus, a traditional hotspot of large-scale celebratory partying. Revelers ripped landscaping trees from near the complex to feed a huge bonfire.
ESPN's Heather Cox defends asking Jameis Winston about sexual assault following ACC championship
Graham Watson at Dr. Saturday2 days agoESPN reporter Heather Cox took a lot of heat over the weekend after she asked Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston about the sexual assault investigation following the ACC title game.
Several fans, mostly from Florida State, felt that Cox ambushed Winston. His attorney, Tim Jansen, took to Twitter expressing his disgust and demanding an apology.
In an interview with SI.com's Richard Deitsch, Cox said Florida State told her the postgame interview was unrestricted and that her bosses gave her the go-ahead to ask anything she wanted, including trying to obtain Winston's first unrehearsed comments about a case that had nearly derailed his Heisman chances and Florida State's national championship hopes.
Ranking all the bowl games, from 1 to 35
Graham Watson at Dr. Saturday3 days agoWell, it's finally here – the last days of the BCS.
Go ahead, weep. It's OK. The BCS has been a good sparring pal, keeping us on our toes while we debated the merits of one team getting a bid over another. Heck, even in its final year it gave us a little controversy with an interesting decision that put Oklahoma in the Sugar Bowl ahead of Oregon.
Still, we'll miss our dear friend, the BCS, as we usher in a new era of a college football playoff.
When the dust clears on the 2013-14 season, either Florida State or Auburn will be crowned champion. But before we get to that, there are 34 other bowls that deserve our attention – some less than others.
The bowl season wasn't exactly kind this year, There are a couple good matchups, but there are also a lot of duds and a few games that are just absolutely unwatchable.
We here at Dr. Saturday break them all down for you, 1 to 35:

BCS National Championship capsule: No. 1 Florida State vs. No. 2 Auburn
Graham Watson at Dr. Saturday3 days agoBCS National Championship Rose Bowl, Pasadena, Calif. Jan. 6, 2014 No. 1 Florida State vs. No. 2 Auburn
An early look at the matchup: Initially, the draw of this game will be the offenses. Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston, the likely Heisman winner, has dazzled all season with accuracy and poise not often seen by a freshman. The Florida State receivers are big and physical and the running game with James Wilder Jr., makes the Seminoles a tough matchup.
Auburn's offense revolves around quarterback Nick Marshall and running back Tre Mason, who anchor the nation's leading rushing attack with 335.7 yards per game. The Tigers showed just how dominant that rushing game can be by throttling a Missouri rush defense that started the game ranked No. 2 in the SEC and finished No. 9 after allowing 545 rushing yards, including 304 to Mason.
But the story of the game will be defense. Florida State has a good one, Auburn doesn't. The Seminoles lead the nation allowing just 10.7 points per game and are ranked third in the country allowing just 268.5 yards per game. They have stifled almost every opponent they have played and are especially good against the run, allowing 116.5 yards per game.
Florida State handles business against Duke in ACC title game
Graham Watson at Dr. Saturday4 days agoThere was no doubt Florida State would beat Duke in the ACC title game, it was just a matter of by how much.
The Seminoles won 45-7 to finish 13-0 for the first time in school history and earned a chance to play for a national championship.
Florida State handled Duke the way it's handled almost every other team on its schedule this season – with relative ease. There was no suspense; the game was never in doubt.
Quarterback Jameis Winston, the Heisman frontrunner, didn't have a great game, but did little to harm his chances of hoisting the bronze statue next Saturday.
Florida State's pre-bowl season wrapped up with a nice little bow.
But there's still excitement on the horizon.
The matchup many wanted to see – Florida State and Auburn – will happen thanks to Michigan State's 34-24 win against Ohio State in the Big Ten Championship. The victory knocked the Buckeyes from their coveted No. 2 ranking in the BCS standings, sliding Auburn, the SEC champs, into their spot.
Sadly, that game is still a month away, but it's the last obstacle to what could end up a dream season for the Seminoles, who have proven they're back among college football's power programs.

This is an offshoot from the Dutch dagger thread.
I have been working on my flourish techniques and wanted to know if anyone had any tips. I have not had any in person instruction on flourishing thus far so I've been basically working from the videos of others. For the most part I've been working on getting a better feel for the blade and increasing my overall control. If anyone has anything at all to say about flourishing it would be much appreciated.

Republicans in Massachusetts have a second candidate interested in the race for the seat Secretary of State John Kerry resigned earlier this month.
Gabriel Gomez announced his candidacy Tuesday with a bilingual web video introducing himself to voters.
"I spent my career as a Navy SEAL and a businessman right here in Boston," he said. "I'm not a politician so I'll have a very different kind of campaign."
For either Gomez or State Rep. Dan Winslow, who said he was exploring a run last week, to appear on the ballot, they must collect 10,000 signatures by February 27, a deadline which is just over two weeks away. If more than one contender enters the race, a primary will be held April 30 to select a party candidate for the June special election to follow Kerry.
Since President Barack Obama selected Kerry as his next head of the State Department, a number of Republicans in the Bay State have announced they will not run, including former Sen. Scott Brown, who won the seat in a 2010 special election but lost his November bid for a full term against Democrat Elizabeth Warren. Brown said in an interview Tuesday that he could have raised the funds and was encouraged to jump in, but needs to "recharge the engines and spend some time with my family."
As Brown, former Gov. Gov. William Weld and former state Senate Minority Leader Richard Tisei announced they would not run, speculation swirled that the wife or son of former GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney might enter the field. But they, too, are sitting this race out, and political watchers began to wonder how a Republican candidate could collect enough signatures to be on the ballot -- especially with the weekend blizzard which shut down the Northeastern state.
Two Democrats have declared their efforts for the seat: Rep. Ed Markey, the longest serving member of the Massachusetts delegation to Washington, and Rep. Stephen Lynch. Markey has the backing of Kerry and several other Massachusetts Democrats, as well as the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee.
Gomez wrote in a statement accompanying his announcement that Washington harbors "a lot of unproductive noise, and bickering, and I see two parties attacking each other at all times over every issue." It is a place of "gridlock" and "severe dysfunction," he said, but said he is optimistic that he can be "a voice for bipartisanship, reasonableness and common sense."
"Look at my training -- serving my country, U.S. Naval Academy, Navy aircraft carrier pilot, Navy SEAL, successful private sector, business career," he said. "I'm not a politician, and there will be times when folks will ask me questions about the inner working of politics that I don't know about. I'm a quick study, I'll figure all the political jargon out, but I'm not going to adopt it."

Our president is a wordsmith.
Syllables are notes on a scale for Barack Obama, played deliberately and elegantly. He hears music when he speaks and so do we. The notes he chooses are revealing. He seldom plays what he does not intend.
As his inaugural address floated down the National Mall from the steps of the U.S. Capitol, we heard this comforting refrain: "We have never ... succumbed to the fiction that all society's ills can be cured through government alone."
The casual listener may have heard a call for balance and moderation, but the president's composition was breathtakingly radical.
There is no situation, he informed us, in which government is not indispensably needed. Sometimes, it may require a little help: Society's ills can't "be cured through government alone."
This president's audacity is no longer hope: Obama is pursuing a spectacularly bold and activist, big-government agenda.
He opposes austerity only for Washington: His attempt to protect our bloated government from the "sequester" was ferocious. Obama's apocalyptic warnings that the automatic budget cuts would "gut critical investments in ... education and national security" could make a professional alarmist such as Al Gore jealous.
Obama confronted the sequester deadline like a surgeon who could not bring himself to wield his scalpel upon a member of his own family. He rejected the authority to target the spending cuts himself, though he had called the alternative "a meat cleaver approach."
For Obama, taking personal responsibility for sparing one government program and not another was "Sophie's Choice": He loves them all equally and endlessly.
In this president's world, our government should never shrink. His vision of social equality requires expanding social programs to bring the poor up and higher taxes to bring the rich down.
Our only choice, to deal with the world's increasing complexity, is more political and artificial instruction from our antiquated, top-down public sector. This industrial age president tells us we have no alternative but government growth and the Washington do-gooding he terms "collective action."
Obama sees a changing world. He would change America to match his vision of it. What he doesn't see is the institution most in need of transformation: the government under his command.
Republican or Democrat, we would all like to see a new era of progress and prosperity for our country. We all hope this president will allow our economy to be as successful as his campaigns were.
To that end, perhaps we should explore if there is another, more modern way to deal with our evolving challenges and their accumulated complexity.
Years ago, in another essay, I offered the advice that follows to President Bill Clinton. Since Obama has dragged the Democratic Party back to the pre-Clinton, old Democrat "era of big government," I offer it again, with only modest revision. Let's discuss government in a way most of us can understand.
Let's talk about sex.
Hell of a mess, isn't it? Risky and inefficient. The eternal conflict between the sexes. The time wasted on courtship. So many failed relationships and so few successful ones. Why does Mother Nature spend such energy on the mating dance: The gravitational tug of brightly colored feathers or a sequined inaugural gown?
Half the genes here, half the genes there. The ungainly act required to mix those genes together. Is it all necessary?
Why are there two sexes? Wouldn't it be more efficient if, like the amoeba, there were but one? Perhaps, inspired by his Affordable Care Act, this president could lead the country to a "single-payer" sexual system? Wouldn't it spare us unnecessary expense and anxiety? Surely the architects of Obamacare could contrive a less troublesome method of reproduction, designing the thing from scratch.
Biologists have great jobs: They think about sex and explore such questions. Their answers, conveniently, boil down to this: Inefficiency and failure have advantages. For all its uncertainty, there are vast benefits in the tumultuous chaos of sex.
Through the rich differences between male and female, the reshuffling and recombining of genes, life finds its way forward. Male meets female, they shuffle the genetic cards and bang! Amphibians walk out of the water. Monkeys develop opposable thumbs. Man learns to walk upright. Shuffle the cards again and sex finds pathways around diseases and mutating viruses that would otherwise extinguish us. Another genetic shuffle and man learns to master the use of tools: a piece of flint, the spear, a Twitter app.
The chaotic jumble of sex is nature's creative secret. It allows change, adaptability and advancement. The cost, however, is astounding. For every evolutionary change or mutation that succeeds, there are hundreds, perhaps millions of dead-end journeys. One eagle survives a thousand dodo birds.
The alternative to nature's undisciplined creativity, however, is rigidity, paralysis and decline. Asexual reproduction is a short and stagnant avenue, an unimaginative path that leads no further than the amoeba.
It is a shame no one ever took Obama to a drive-in movie on a sultry, summer night to teach him this important lesson -- and explain how it applies, not just to the birds and bees, but to society and economics, as well.
Nature advances through the wasteful confusion of sex. Economies advance through the noisy jumble of the free market. Science advances not just through reason, but in random leaps of inspiration. Some species and businesses and scientific experiments fail. Others march forward. Life advances not despite chaos, but because of it. There is no chance for success, it seems, where there is no risk of failure.

2013 Ami Simms will be wrapping up the Alzheimer's Art Quilt Initiative. I would challenge us all to try and make a quilt or buy one this year. They are trying to reach 1 million by end of the year. http://www.alzquilts.org/ Rondi | |||
For sure! I'm not qualified to speak for the organization but - I think that while they are really grateful for each and every quilt they have received and will welcome more of them, it seems that at this point buying little quilts is probably more useful than sending more to them. | ||||
I was reading that last night. Even though they have a number of them on the site right now in the "buy it now" category, they are still running the monthly auctions and looking forward to the opportunity to sell again at the Houston Quilt Festival. They sell oodles of them there, and I look forward to buying there every year . I agree, let's help them get to the goal of one million big ones! | ||||
Bozie, I tried to buy one of yours, but your unsold ones dont seem to be available, is this because they are scheduled for auction? What will you do next, now that they are closing down? It must have been very satisfying to be a part of an organization that gives out all the money it receives, and not just a percentage. Jane_Kiwi | ||||
It's possible that one or more of them will be included in the February auction but I think it's more likely they will just be put up for sale on the website. I say that because there are currently about 360 quilts on the "Waiting for Assignment" list and it looks as if there is to be just one more auction of 26 regular Priority :Alzheimer's quilts. That will be Feb 1 - 10. After that the auctions will be either for the quilts that are now in the traveling exhibit or the celebrity quilts in the November auction. | ||||
Whoa! I guessed way wrong there! Four of mine are up for the next auction. That's a first. | ||||
As well they should be, Bozie. You've made a fine contribution to AAQI over the years. I'd be very proud to have any of them at my house. www.floridafarmgirlsworld.blogspot.com Life isn't about how to survive the storm, but how to dance in the rain. | ||||

This hardback edition is a larger size (apprx. 7 x 10 inches) to accomodate much more extensive commentary than in either the compact edition or the original paperback 12-volume edition. The commentary focuses in more depth and length as compared with the shorter, more detailed commentary on individual verses or very short sections. It avoids repetition between Scriptural books. There is a unitary vision and explanation for each Scriptural book, more attention to the sense of the text, and the avoidance of repitition in explanations of the synoptic Gospels. The larger trim size and more ample margin allows for easier reading and note taking than in earlier versions.

Good choices make good pets, and happy owners. Many animals are surrendered every year, because they did not fit the owners lifestyle. Pet owners often become frustrated when they encounter behaviors that they are unable to correct.
An improper correction can actually worsen the problem, or have an unpleasant side effect. It is important to be well informed and prepared before you get the pet.We think that many pet issues could be avoided by education in responsible pet ownership.

Easily "Your Song". When I first heard the song I just fell in love with it. My favorite line is, "If I was a sculpture, but then again, no" just because of the way he brings up a topic and immediately throws it away because he thought of a better way to express his love. The chorus is just so beautiful. Just a great way to say the three magic words. Elton's singing on this song is superb, not that he isn't great on any other track, but it just sticks out from his catalog. Not really much else to say, but I love this song, and Elton is one of my top 5 solo artists, #3 to be exact.

Excellent week, buying everything, including the pro upgrade.
With these new tracks, this year's DLC has contributed 31 songs that I really like, and we still have the promise of more John Parr in the RBN. That's a good year. And, that's a good run.
It's been five years of awesome tunes, great memories, and some improved chops playing and singing along with some of my favorite songs. I will always be grateful for what Harmonix has given, combining two of my biggest passions, music and video games, into a single experience. Here's hoping it keeps going for just a little longer, but as of now, it is everything I feel is fair to hope for.
Catch y'all on the flip side.

Thread: Singapore Open 2012 PICTURES
Singapore Open 2012 PICTURES
Although this year's Singapore Open is without some of the top names that normally take part because of their preparations for the forthcoming London Olympics, there were some upsets and exciting matches.
Hitherto unheralded players and underdogs were able to find their confidence and form to defeat much higher world ranked players.
The more successful of these were:
Viktor Axelsen DEN WR29 defeating Sho Sasaki JPN, the highest MS entry at WR6 in R1 and then accounting for veteran Sony Kuncoro INA in the QF, who himself caused another upset by beating Du Pengyu CHN WR9 in R1. Viktor was unfortunately stopped by finalist Wang Zhengming CHN WR18 during the SF.
Darien Liew MAS WR31 surprised Lee Hyun Il KOR WR10 in R2 but was himself beaten by Nguyen Tien Minh VIE WR11 in the QF.
Chong Wei Feng MAS WR37 caused another upset by eliminating Taufik Hidaya INA WR12 in R1 and Hu Yun HKG WR20 in R2. He was in turn beaten by Wang ZM in the QF.
Wang Zheng Ming CHN WR18, ex-World Junior Champ, had the pleasure of scalping Kenichi Tago JPN WR8 in R2 apart from killing Victor Axelsen's ambitions in the SF. VA was also a World Junior Champ, a few years younger than Wang.
But this Singapore Open has also revived the fortunes of Olympian Boonsak Ponsana THA WR32, who eventually overcame all his opponents to be crowned Singapore Open MS champion. Hafiz Hashim MAS WR27, Dionysius Hayom Rumbaka INA WR 19, Nguyen Tien Minh and finally Wang ZM, all fell into his hands. And this is Boonsak's second SS title, his first also at the same venue in Singapore.
Singapore also had a surprise when Xing Aiying WR49
emerged from the field to enter the WS SF by knocking out Yip Pui Yin HKG WR 26 in the QF. But Aiying was unable to stop Cheng Shao Chieh TPE WR13 in the SF although she did well to extend Cheng 23-21 in G1. However Aiying was the toast of Singapore and her unexpected presence made many Singapore fans happy to travel to SIS to support her. She did much better than her higher ranked teammates Gu Juan WR17 and Fu Mingtian WR29, both of whom were eliminated in earlier rounds.
Here are some SF pictures between Wang ZM and Viktor A:
The Venue Singapore Indoor Stadium (SIS)
From Wikipedia:
"The Indoor Stadium is Singapores largest and most versatile indoor sports and entertainment venue.
Officially opened in December 1989, the Singapore Indoor Stadium has a flexible arena that can be arranged to accommodate both small (2,500 spectators) and large crowds (up to 12,000 spectators). The Stadium has been used for various major sport events, entertainment events and concerts performed by international superstars such as Elton John and Janet Jackson. In 1999 and 2000, the stadium hosted the Tennis Heineken Open, and welcomed players such as Marcelos Rios and Lleyton Hewitt.
The Indoor Stadium is also no stranger to world-class badminton action. The Aviva Open Singapore is a high-profile tournament that has been held there since 2004.
The Indoor Stadium has since seen the crowning of top-seed players such as Men's Singles: Lee Chong Wei (2008), Peter Gade (2006), Taufik Hidayat (2005, 2001), Boonsak Ponsana (2012, 2007), and Women's Singles: Saina Nehwal (2010), Tine Rasmussen (2008) and Zhang Ning (2007, 2004, 2001) and this year Juliane Schenk at the tournaments.
This year the SIS has undergone some improvements to maintain it status as a preferred entertainment venue. Its huge capacity of up to 12,000 seats for sports events like badminton often times gives the wrong impression that attendance is not encouraging like the just concluded Singapore Open.
The SIS vicinity is a hive of construction activities. Last time it was for the building of the Stadium MRT. This time it is the Singapore Sports Hub which is expected to be ready in 2014. After which, this Kallang venue will be a centre of attraction for recreation, entertainment, F&B and particularly sports.
Justin L liked this post
How the Singapore Sports Hub will look lke in 2014
SIS's premier status as an indoor sports venue will be furthur enhanced by the completion of the Kallang Sports Hub. In fact the entiire area surrounding the Kallang Basin will be enlivened and become another favourite meeting place for the young and old alike, perhaps second only to the Marina Bay area, where Marina Bay Sands, the Esplanade -Theatres on the Bay, etc, with their retail, F&B, entertainment and varied events have pulled in lots more visitors, including tourists.
More people will be attracted to the Singapore Open in years to come and our quest for staging future Super Series and other sports tournaments will hopefully be well-received by the international bodies such as BWF.
MAS future successors Darien Liew & Chong Wei Feng shone until QF
Two of MAS' national players had a chance to dispel unfair criticisms against them in the past by performing creditably and causing a few upsets against higher ranked opponents.
Darrien Liew WR31
R1 - Alamsyah Yunus INA, 21-9, 24-22
R2 - Lee Hyun Il KOR WR10, 21-18, 12-21, 21-13
Lost to:
QF - Nguyen Tien Min VIE WR11, 14-21, 21-11, 21-13
Chong Wei Feng WR37
R1 - Taufik Hidayat INA WR12, 21-17, 21-19
R2 - Hu Yun HKG WR20, 21-17, 21-14
Lost to:
QF - Wang Zhengming CHN WR18, 21-12, 22-20
Singapore's Xing Aiying took over the baton
While SIN's WD seeded pair and 2010 champions of Yao Lei & Shinta Mulia Sari failed to advance beyond the QF, the unheralded and unseeded Xing Aiying WR49 managed to carry Singapore's flag into the SF.
A pleasant surprise for most Singaporean fans indeed although she eventually lost to much higher ranked Cheng Shao Chieh TPE WR13, 23-21, 21-7.
Aiying defeated:
R1 - Lianne Tan BEL, 21-11, 21-14
R2 - Liang Xiaoyu SIN, 21-19, 21-10
QF - Yip Pui Yin HKG WR26, 21-9, 23-21
Singapore's WS baby Chen Jiayuan stood relatively tall in this Open
Chen Jiayuan WR113 is the youngest of Singapore's four WS national players, namely Gu Juan, Fu Mingtian, Xing Aiying and herself. However, she is by far the tallest and she has also put on some weight, hopefully from her muscles.
This episode of perhaps the least number of entries for the Singapore Open has given her a chance to demonstrate how far she has improved and indeed, judging by her two appearances, she capitalised on the opportunity. The lower turnout also gave spectators the chance to return home early despite some extended matches.
First Jiayuan eliminated veteran Yao Jie NED WR21, in three hard-fought games, 24-22, 16-21, 21-15 in R1. Thankfully there were no qualifying matches for WS, otherwise I think Jiayuan would need to qualify instead of gaining direct entry to the main event.
Then she had to face eventual runner-up, Cheng Shao Chieh in R2, but she won the first game unexpectedly 21-13 before losing the remaining 17-21, 11-21 in 42 min.
For her spirited display, Jiayuan has now jumped 23 positions to WR90 in the latest rankings while Xing Aiying has improved by 15 ranks to WR34 now.Last edited by Loh; 06-29-2012 at 03:15 AM.
Other matches
Because of my toothache, I did not attend R1 and the Finals. I'm glad I did not heed the young dentist's advice to extract two infected teeth. They are still with me although I need to be very careful not to agitate them unnecessarily from now onwards.
But I managed to capture some other personalities and matches of the other rounds.
More Matches
More matches of Round 2.
Of particular interest was Japan's Sayaka Sato's battle against Bulgaria's Petya Nedelcheva, which the former won in straight games of 21-13, 21-15. Sato's skirt was really short to facilitate her movement on court.
Sato's teammate, Eriko Hirose also wore a miniskirt compared to her TPE opponent, Tai Tzu Ying, who wore a pair of Bermudas.
The INA WD of Anneke Feinya Agustin and Nitya Krishinda Maheswari also got used to wearing skirts. So were our SIN pair of Yao Lei and Shinta Mulia Sari.Last edited by Loh; 06-29-2012 at 04:02 AM.
The Most Striking of them all
This Singapore Open was rewarded with the sensational appearance of a ballerina shuttler, from where else, but cultural France!
She was none other than Sashina Vignes Waran who gave Yippy Pui Yin of Hong Kong an initial fright, not only with her exquisite attire and agility, but also with a close game of 21-16 in G1 before she crumbled 21-9 in the second.
The Lady from France
More shots of Vignes in her R2 batlle with Yip Pui Yin:
Two Future Stars crossed swords in Round 2
Wang Zhengming CHN and Kenichi Tago JPN are arguably the future stars of their respective countries and possibly the world.
Tago WR8 has qualified for the forthcoming London Olympics, together with Sho Sasaki WR 6 and Wang, who is currently just ahead of Tommy Sugiarto INA WR18, up one position from previously owing to his runner-up placing in this Singapore Open, was unable to qualify because of a few talented CHN players ahead of him, namely LD, CL, CJ and Du.
And while Sasaki was unexpectedly upset in R1 by young Viktor Axelsen DEN and Tommy was disposed of by countryman Dionysius Hayom Rumbaka WR19 in R2, Wang laboured in R2 against Tago and won in three games 17-21, 21-17, 21-16.
Here are some pics of their R2 encounter:
Fu Mingtian SIN challenged Sung Ji Hyun KOR in R2
Very few would expect Fu Mingtian WR29 to be able to beat Sung Ji Hyun WR8 who has qualified for the LOG whereas Fu did not.
Fu did not disappoint when she fought hard to limit Sung to a close match, losing out in 21-17, 21-18.
However, Sung also lost to eventual WS winner Juliane Schenke WR6, 21-11, 20-22, 21-12 in the SF.
Here are some pics of the Fu-Sung encounter:
Veteran Eriko Hirose JPN shattered the hopes of young star Tai Tsu Ying TPE
Touted as a future star, "Taiphoon" Tsu Ying WR12 fell to "veteran" Eriko Hirose WR18 in R2 in straight games of 21-15, 21-18.
I supposed Eriko's experience came in at the right time to counter an "off-colour" Typhoon.Last edited by Loh; 07-02-2012 at 04:47 AM.
Dion versus countryman Tommy
Both are fighting hard for the right to represent INA in the near future when veteran Taufik Hidyat retires.
While Dionysius Hayom Rumbaka maybe a rank below Tommy Sugiarto at WR19, he managed to eliminate Tommy 21-19, 21-17 in R2.

Peterson's father, Nelson Peterson, had no further comment.
Peterson missed practice Thursday to deal with a medical issue involving a young family member, according to the Argus (S.D.) Leader. He was spotted in Sioux Falls, S.D.
He returned to practice Friday and said he plans to play Sunday against the Carolina Panthers.
"I really appreciate all the support from fans and the Vikings," Peterson said. "I ask y'all respect my privacy."
The Argus Leader reported that the health issue is "very serious" and "likely will be a police matter." A Sioux Falls toddler is in critical condition with choking injuries after allegedly being assaulted by a man.
TMZ first reported that it involves Peterson's 2-year-old son. He was reportedly rushed to a hospital and medical experts determined the injuries were consistent with abuse.
According to police, emergency responders arrived at the apartment where Peterson's son reportedly lives at 5:46 p.m. Wednesday and found the child unresponsive.
Joseph Robert Patterson, 27, is being held without bail at the Minnehaha County Jail, charged with aggravated assault and battery of an infant against his girlfriend's 2-year-old son.

Review: Design With Nature
Comentário do usuário - Gmpicket - GoodreadsI like McHarg's method of working out solutions to specific problems, but I'm less excited about his philosophy. The projects he presents, if you look up about those places now, you can see that his advice was generally ignored. Kind of sad. Ler resenha completa

Arizona SCITECH Festival (Jan. 25 to March 14, 2012)
Wednesday, January 25th, 2012Over 150 free events put on by over 250 organizations state-wide for this upcoming science-themed celebration:
The Arizona SciTech Festival will take place February-March 2012 and will offer a series of hands-on activities and workshops, conversations and debates, exhibitions, concerts, guided walks and tours.
28 events in Pima County alone, too numerous to list. Pick up a brochure (I got mine at Bookman's on Grant/Campbell), or go online at www.azscitechfest.org, find the Events Calendar, click on Pima County:
Some of these science events with coincide with Tucson Gem & Mineral Show (Feb. 9), the Tucson Festival of Books (March 10 & 11), and the UA Living Beyond 100 series of six lectures, which I blogged about yesterday (click here), which runs from January 24 to February 28.
One of the highlight events in Tucson appears to be the one on Sat. Feb. 18 – Science in the City-
"Arizona Technology Council, Providence and Downtown Tucson Merchants: Experience science in downtown as never seen before with interactive science activities, demonstrations and exhibits. Features include downtown merchants demonstrating the science of their profession and interactive science exhibitions form local schools".
Other science related activities such as Zero Gravity and Mathematics Road Show will be in the Interactive Park on Congress. Tucson schools and Pima JTED will showcase their projects at various venues including the Children's Museum Tucson, Science Downtown, and the Pima County Joel D. Valdez Main library. Where: Congress St. Movie & Interactive Park, Scott Ave. and Stone Ave. When: 2 to 6 pm. Cost: Free.
Sounds like a great way to get your child/ren interested and passionate about science as a career. Or to renew your own interest in science and technology. So mark your calendars for any of these SCITECH Festival events.
And don't forget to check out the Mars & Beyond exhibit in the Rialto Building at 300 E. Congress St., scheduled to be there till June. I visited it on January 7 and found several of the exhibits quite fascinating, esp. a 3 dimensional globe depicting each of the planets and moons, and a film about the Hubble Space Station with incredible images from outer space.

Plain Label Podcast Episode 11 - Musicals Part 2
In this episode, we conclude Musicals Month with an examination on some of the newer musicals. We begin with a discussion on Moulin Rouge, before moving into the films: Chicago, Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street, Hairspray, and Rock of Ages!
Our discussion brings out the fact that Eric seems to have problems with female musical leads, and no matter had bad the film is, Rachel will still enjoy it, as long as there is singing. We marvel at Catherine Zeta-Jones in Chicago before looking at Edward Scissor…I mean, Sweeney Todd. The 2007 film Hairspray was a nice surprise before ending on the newest musical, the 2012 film Rock of Ages!

Now more than ever before, a down economy is demanding more be done by fewer people on tighter deadlines for less money. And while expectations keep getting higher, companies are offering less support to managers struggling to coach their teams to make them more efficient and productive.
Many of us talk about coaching, take courses on it, read books about it, practice it, and even consider ourselves "experts" on the subject. But the more complicated we make coaching, the less effective it is. Coaching needs to be easy and useable, like rolling out of bed or tying your shoelaces. So why are so many HR professionals making this critical skill so hard to execute?
Coaching is hot, But over-engineered
Over lunch the other day, Karen, a finance director at a major technology company, told me about a recent three-day coaching workshop she attended. Her experience illustrated how coaching skills are made difficult for managers to internalize and implement. "It was intense," she explained, "we studied models, observed coaching sessions by experts, and tried to practice on each other."
"Wow," I said, "sounds like you really got a good foundation on how to coach your people."
"Well," she countered, her tone changing imperceptibly, "to tell you the truth, while interesting at the moment, it happened three weeks ago and I can't really remember some of the complex models. I think it was a 10-Step model, and each step seemed more complicated than the one before. On top of that, even though the demos by the workshop leader were great, I knew I could never do it like her."
"She was a Ph.D. psychologist," Karen continued. "Is that what I need to be to coach my people? So I spent three days locked up in a hotel with other participants, trying to learn a coaching system I will never use! And it cost my company $10,000—not to mention the time I lost on the job."
Like many leaders I consult with regularly, Karen was merely expressing what most feel: coaching is "hot" right now, but over-engineered. It is more style than substance, more buzz than bonus, more sizzle than steak.
With more needing to be accomplished, and fewer resources at their disposal, managers have little time to practice communications models and, as we saw with Karen, after learning them in multi-day experiential workshops, these newly-acquired skills soon fade. Karen is far from alone. In our research, we found that, after three months, 73 percent of participants in these types of workshops can't remember the basic coaching concepts, let alone implement them in daily coaching sessions.
According to research from the Conference Board, "too many HR [departments] are trying to make the easy stuff hard. Managers want basic coaching skills that can be learned quickly, [are] practical, and can be used immediately."
20 minutes to a top performer
Many managers think coaching conversations need to last an hour or at least a half-hour to be effective. But my research over the past two decades shows you can achieve genuine, effective, and productive results in 20 minutes or less if you engage in carefully planned, focused conversations. The results were equally valid at large corporations, small companies, non-profit institutions, and government agencies.
Research by others supports this finding.
Writing in The National Teaching & Learning Forum, authors Joan Middendorf and Alan Kalish contend that, "adults can keep tuned in to a lecture for no more than 15 to 20 minutes at a time." Carmine Gallo, author of "10 Simple Secrets of the World's Greatest Business Communicators," adds that "research shows that after 15 to 20 minutes, our attention drops dramatically."
An October 2008 Wall Street Journal article cites research by the Hay Group detailing what managers need to do to manage more effectively, especially if they tend to micromanage. Their findings support the following three principles of quick, focused conversations that are at the heart of "20-Minute Coaching Conversations."
1. State clear expectations: this saves time and helps people know what success looks like.
2. Encourage questions and suggestions: this gets all parties involved in solutions.
3. Offer constructive feedback: this ensures employees can hit the target.
So—first and foremost, the tone of your 20 Minute Coaching Conversation must be clear and to the point. The leader is demonstrating how coaching communication should be done—leading by example, so to speak. In my work, I have found leaders do set the tone for the kind of communications people have with each other. The entire team will pick up on the mind-set of the manager. Teams act and communicate as they experience how their manager interacts with them. Managers who set clear goals, and invite openness in their conversations, set a great example that ripples throughout the work group.
At the end of the day, coaching needs to be easy for you AND those you lead; 20 Minute Conversations can help you achieve that critical objective.
