I'm new to TuDiabetes so here is my story for anyone interested:
I have a younger brother who was diagnosed with T1D at 12 years old, like many others, my family unfortunately was unaware of the symptoms until his bg was very high. The diagnosis had a profound effect on his eating habits and attitudes toward food, as it often does. Five years later, when I was 20 years old, I found myself experiencing the same symptoms I had seen in my brother. I promptly diagnosed myself,…

Biomedical Regulatory Affairs
Concentration Focus
The Biomedical Regulatory Affairs Concentration of the Master of Science in Leadership program will empower students with in-depth knowledge, technical and business skills necessary to address FDA-imposed regulation issues throughout the lifecycle of emerging medical products.
Concentration Goals
Who Should Pursue This Concentration?
Career Impact of This Concentration
Biomedical Regulatory Affairs builds knowledge and skills necessary to provide leadership and oversight of effective regulatory affairs and compliance. Trine University has recently (June, 2010) become a partner in the OrthoWorx initiative, which is a Warsaw, Indiana based industry, community, and education initiative to support growth and innovation in the region's orthopedics device sector. The "biomedical corridor" with its hub in Warsaw that radiates throughout Northeast Indiana is the largest in the world, hosting 3 of the 5 leading orthopedic device companies. According to the Indiana Health Industry Forum (2008), a total of 84 companies that support biomedical and life sciences exist in this region, all of which must demonstrate internal and external regulatory compliance:
According to a Lilly Endowment-funded needs assessment (BioCrossroads, 2009) that established the necessity of OrthoWorx as a coordinating body for education and workforce development, three specific needs were identified that will be met through the delivery of this concentration. First, federal regulatory and compliance scrutiny of the medical device industry has increased tremendously. Second, across the orthopedics device workforce, significant education and training shortfalls have led to a shortage of qualified workers. Third, the industry finds it difficult to attract and retain senior engineering and management talent.
Trine University has proposed, and has been welcomed by the members of OrthoWorx to meet these needs by delivering the Biomedical Regulatory Affairs concentration as both a part of the MSLDR program for individuals charged with leading departments in these companies and a stand-alone certificate program for designers, engineers, and others in the workforce who hold a bachelor's degree and desire only the content-area expertise. These two educational opportunities will equip workers with the capacity to effectively address regulatory issues. Students who complete this concentration area will be equipped to pursue the Regulatory Affairs Professionals Society (RAPS) Regulatory Affairs Certification for U.S. companies (RAC-US) through an examination, which, when passed, will provide a nationally-recognized credential in regulatory affairs (RAPS, 2010).
Concentration Coursework (15 Credit Hours)
LDR 6103 Introduction to Biomedical Regulatory Affairs (3) This course surveys government oversight of devices and biotechnology derived products; laws and regulations that apply to development, testing and production. It also addresses the responsibilities of a regulatory affairs specialist the regulatory setting.
LDR 6123 Product Development and Manufacturing Systems (3) This course covers product development and manufacturing concerns such as quality control, scale-up, good manufacturing practices (GMPs) and quality systems), the U.S. Food and Drug Administration inspection process, and FDA regulatory actions. Focus on the QSIT (Quality System Inspection Technique).
LDR 6133 Qualitative Decision Making in Biomedical Regulatory Affairs (3)
A review of methods used to collect information to support business decisions, such as surveys, focus groups, competitive studies, and benchmarking. Topics include designing procedures to obtain unbiased data, scaling methods, and analysis and interpretation of data to produce credible results and recommendations. Emphasis is placed on intelligence necessary to support strategic planning activities and initiatives. Upon successful completion of this course, a student will be able to discern when to use qualitative techniques and the limitations of qualitative studies, design a study around research questions, choose appropriate samples from the population, and prepare the research instruments, prepare to conduct in-depth interviews and focus groups, analyze data and correlate results of qualitative studies.
LDR 6143 Product Testing, Evaluation, Clinical Trials, and Post-Market Issues (3) This course focuses on post-marketing requirements, reporting and enforcement actions. Emphasis is on inspection (internal and by regulators) preparation, conduct and follow-up actions. It also introduces the major concepts under which clinical trials are designed and run, including the phases of clinical trials, study design and statistical concepts, the role of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, Institutional Review Boards, the Code of Federal Regulations and ethical principles. Post-marketing surveillance and studies, and reimbursement and economics of biomedical interventions are discussed.
LDR 6163 Biomedical Regulatory Affairs Capstone (3) This course provides a practical experience to ensure that participants can conceptualize the shepherding of new biomedical products through regulatory, clinical and quality assurance aspects. Students work on projects of their choice under the guidance of an adviser. The final report will consist of a comprehensive regulatory strategy work plan for a product, using knowledge gained in the concentration-area courses.

Stuart M Leiderman <email@example.com> dear Readers:it is less than a year since a Haitian bicentennial cruise ran into deep water because of tacit endorsement of Haiti's disputed temporary leadership. but, reading today's news, Haitian-Americans are again leaning on the same person to promote a charitable campaign for a war memorial in Savannah, Georgia. with the Haitian community at home and abroad so divided between the past and present leadership, where is the logic of courting such divisiveness? will there someday be a monument to Haiti's bandits?
thank you, Stuart Leiderman

Not sure what it is like at high tide, but low tide there were loads of dog walkers on the banks. The sun hitting the sand flats emitted a dreamy and relaxing feel to the area.

Treyarnon is a lovely clean beach with loads of rock pools to explore. The cliff top walks offer views of the spectacular scenery. The beach gets very busy during the summer months, but when we visited on a blustery October day it was very quiet, just a few walkers. There is plenty of space to park for a very reasonable... More
The most amazing Rock Pools in Cornwall. A beautiful cove with decent surf , easy parking and in summer a great bacon butty van . Easy walk to Constantine Bay.
The beach is about 5 miles outside padstow with good parking and life guards during the season. It does get busy but my fav beach in the padstow area. Its got a big tide swing and great surf in a relatively safe beach Well worth a visit if for nothing else to visit the large natural rock pool
The views were amazing and the Youth Hostel allows you to drink a glass of wine whilst watching the sun set
This is just a wonderful beach for anyone and any group. Sheltered and large area of sand when sea is on way out. Rock pooling heaven and there is this large natural swimming pool which is just glorious. Shop, YMCA and car park at the beach. YMCA accepts dogs outside but not inside. Food not wonderful but acceptable if nothing... More
A hidden beach, ideal for families with a long sandy shore, waves ideal for surfing and room for all.Superb views from the cliff tops, a shop which sells everthing for a day out and a large car park within easy walking distance to the beach.
Loads of room, lots of rock pools and great surf if you want it! Lifeguards on duty with toilets and cafe situated above the beach. Car park charges £3 for all day.
I am somewhat reluctant to recommend a visit to this wonderful wild place as every time I visit there are a few more people on the beach and it is a truly special place. The beach is approached down ridiculously narrow lanes which give it a secret feel and access from the car park is very close to the beach.... More
small car park, but very good beach, cafe next to beach sandy with plenty of room very good for small children.life guards on beach....

Featured video: 5 red flags in Michigan workmans compensation
Presented by: Alex Berman
Description: This is a video about common red flags in a Michigan workmans comp case. Alex Berman, a workmans comp attorney of more than 35 years and head of Alex Berman P.C., lists five red flags that may signify trouble in your work comp case.
Length: 2 minutes, 49 seconds
Video transcript:
I'm Alex Berman, I've been a comp lawyer for over 35 years. I'm currently the president of the Workers Compensation Trial Lawyers Association, and I wanted to discuss some red flags that you should be aware of.
The first one is a letter from the insurance carrier or the employer, scheduling you to see an IME, or an Independent Medical Evaluator. These are doctors that are hired by the insurance carrier, or the employer. And it's their job to find a way to cut off your benefits or reduce them. Truthfully, these doctors are paid vast sums of money to find nothing wrong with people.
The second red flag that you should be aware of is when you receive a letter from the insurance carrier or the employer, to see a vocational expert. The main purpose of this vocational expert is to find you partially disabled. If they find you partially disabled, which means there are jobs out there that you could do, even though those jobs may not actually be available to you, and even though you are not on those jobs, you would be considered partially disabled, and as a result, your benefits could be reduced.
The third red flag is a change in the way you receive your weekly comp checks. You will receive your check on the same day every week or every other week. And then all of a sudden, your checks are late and you have to start calling. And they tell you, "oh, we sent it out," or "there's a problem with our computer." This is usually a sign that something may be going on. You should be concerned about that as well.
The fourth red flag is when you're assigned a nurse case manager. The law states that the nurse case manager is hired by the insurance carrier or employer to help you to get better. But very often, they are more interested in helping the workers comp carrier than you.
The next red flag is a change in the attitude of the (insurance) adjuster. Usually when you have a claim in the beginning, the adjuster will be friendly and cooperative. But at some point you may notice a change in their behavior. They may not be returning your phone calls, ignoring your e-mails. They may not be as nice as they were. They may even be insulting. If you notice this change in the attitude of the adjuster, then this is something you should be concerned about.
If you recognize any of these (red flags), please call a lawyer who will help make sure that you are not taken advantage of and that your benefits are protected to ensure that you get everything you are entitled to.
To learn more about your workers compensation rights, order this free book: Injured on the Job: A Guide to Michigan Workers Compensation Law.
If you've been injured on the job and you recognize any of these red flags, it's best to speak with a Michigan workmans comp attorney who can protect your legal rights.
Call us (855) 221-COMP. Or you can fill out our free consultation form.
We can answer all of your legal questions, and there's no fee or obligation.

See the British Fashion Awards 2013 red carpet »
Last night, Britain's most fashionably influential took over the London Coliseum for the British Fashion Awards 2013. A red carpet of elite wearing elite can only be expected at such an affair, but Kate Moss and Gwyneth Paltrow's looks got our style radar beeping.
The ageless Moss, who was honoured with the Special Recognition award for 25 years in the industry, wore a Spring 2014 Alexander McQueen leather dress with a fur coat. The perforated effect and pleats added texture to the look that was accessorized with a studded clutch, red pout and black Louboutin heels.
Making an appearance to present the International Designer of the Year honour to Miuccia Prada, it's no surprise that Paltrow chose from the designer's collection. The dress, a plum and soft pink bodice with a black pleated skirt, was paired with strappy sandals that added to her signature long legs. Side-parted pin straight hair and a rosy lip made for her low-key beauty look.

Large waves rocked a boat with four people on it at the Fort Pierce Inlet just before noon Sunday.
Video recorded by the U.S. Coast Guard showed the rough surf that caused problems for the boat that nearly capsized.
"It was a smaller vessel and large waves and seas in the inlet strong outgoing tide and the vessel was a little too small for the waves," Jeffrey Vasseur of the U.S. Coast Guard said.
Vasseur estimates the waves on the Fort Pierce inlet around 11:30 Sunday morning were as high as 9 feet.
"The waves were crashing over the bow of our boat," Raymond Concepcion of the U.S. Coast Guard said. "We kind of just got close enough. We kind of got lucky."
Concepcion was lucky enough to pull up a father and his six-year-old boy. Both of them were thrown into the water because of the waves.
"(The kid) was frantic when we initially got on scene," Concepcion said. "He was screaming and yelling that he had to get off the boat. He wanted to get on our boat."
The water filled up half of the boat almost capsizing it, Vasseur said.
It sent others on board jumping off of it.
"When we got up to them they just had fear in their eyes," Concepcion said. "They were scared."
Vasseur grabbed one of them to safety.
"I was able to put my arm out my cabin door and grab him while still trying steer the boat safely without hitting anybody," he said. "I've never done that before," Concepcion said. "Just knowing that I also have a six-year-old and seeing a six-year-old out there and saving his life, it kind of hits home."
The child was the only one on board wearing a life jacket.
The Coast Guard urges everyone on a boat to have safety equipment.

Grant of £45,000 awarded for Red House Village Hall improvements
An award of £45,000 has recently been made to Albrighton Village Hall Trust to help to match fund a total project of £250,000 for improvements to the Red House Village Hall under the Shropshire Council's Market Towns Revitalisation Programme (MTRP).
The aim of the project was to provide a long-term legacy to the people of the village of Albrighton, which would enable local businesses to flourish and cultural activities to prosper.
Work has now been completed on the improvements to the current main hall and small hall, and a redesign of the interior of the hall so that it will accommodate a higher number of seated occupants.
The extension to the hall also allowed for an improved frontage to be developed, making the appearance of the Red House more in keeping with the area. The bar has been relocated to a more appropriate area, which has allowed the current bar space to be used as a further community room/meeting room. There has also been some minor refurbishment to the entrance of the kitchen allowing the space to be utilised more fully.
The application was made by the Albrighton Village Hall Trust, who will also be using receipts from the sale of the Old School House, which they owned, to significantly fund the project.
For more information, please follow the link on this page.
Grant of £31,300 awarded under Shropshire Council's Rural Challenge Fund
Under the Rural Challenge Fund element of Shropshire Council's Market Towns Initiative, Albrighton's Traders' Association was also successful in being awarded a significant grant of £31,300. This, together with other grants awarded from the Albrighton Parish Council and Donington with Boscobel Parish Council, make a total project award of £42,000.
This project is to manufacture and install a range of strategic and directional interpretive signs in and around Albrighton. A range of signs are being developed to include welcome / interpretation signs at key entrances, interpretation panels in the town centre and additional direction/interpretation signs at the exits of David Austin Roses, Boscobel House, Albrighton Railway Station and RAF Cosford Museum.
Albrighton is a quaint market town with a lovely High Street and some quality local independent shops. However, its proximity to Telford and the Black Country has resulted in a situation where the town has been bypassed by several major roads and is now off the beaten track. This project should help to alleviate the problems of reduced tourism and general footfall in the town.
This project was identified in a package of improvements (signage, new business, promotional leaflets, website development, Christmas Fayre) in order to bring more visitors, both tourists and shoppers, into the town.

I visited the castle in 1998 and it was an exhilerating experience. The origin of the castle dates back to the 10th century when Danish invaders threatened to attack. The castle has developed and grown over the centuries to be what it is today. Its construction however began somewhere in 914 AD. King William appointed Henry de Beaumont as the first Earl of Warwick.
The Ceaser's tower, the dungeon and the Guy's tower were all built in the 14th century. The gatehouse and the Barbican were completed in 1450.
Over the years that followed the castle had its own share of treacheries, attacks and also a fire. It also has a ghost tower where the ghost of Sir Fulke Greville, who was murdered by an unhappy servant.
One of the most beautiful rooms in the castle is the State dining room. This room was commissioned in 1763 It can supposedly be used for private parties as well. Wonder how much that would cost.
In 1978 Warwick castle was bought by the Tussaud's Group. Some other rooms in the castle like the Cedar drawing room, music room, the bedrooms have been fabulously and richly decorated and thanks to Madame Tussaud's, with wax statues all over these rooms it gives you a very realistic feel of the place.
It is also a very beautiful feeling to walk along the On The Grounds, River Avon and the peacock gardens.
Though I did not experience it the Kingmaker's feast is supposed to be another great experience.
The staff at the castle are very friendly and helpful and along with the fantastic work that Madame Tussaud's have put in a day spent at the castle is a very rewatding experience.

Memory loss occurs by diverse mechanisms, as different time constants of performance decrement and sensitivities to experimental manipulations suggest. While the phenomena of memory decay, interference, and extinction are well established behaviorally, little is known about them at the circuit or molecular level. In Drosophila, odorant memories lasting up to 3 hr can be localized to mushroom body Kenyon cells, a single neuronal level in the olfactory pathway. The plasticity underlying this memory trace can be induced without Kenyon cell synaptic output. Experimental extinction, i.e., presentation of the conditioned stimulus without the reinforcer, reduces memory performance and does so at the same circuit level as memory formation. Thus, unreinforced presentation of learned odorants antagonizes intracellularly the signaling cascade underlying memory formation.

From the Desk of | Abby | Fashion Intern
As a child of the early 90's I loved all things frayed, clunky, and comfortable – a love I never quite outgrew. Scrolling through Instagram, I lose count of the number of posts containing combat boots, and high-waisted shorts. It seems every gender, race, and social class has taken note of the reemergence of 90's grunge fashion, and embraced it with open arms. Stars like Miley Cyrus, Gwen Stefani, and Rihanna showcase their most scummy duds along with carefree, and rebellious attitudes.
If you're like me, these famous fashionistas may have you wondering, "Where can I get my hands on a couple of these edgy pieces without breaking the bank, or having to shuffle through used items at the thrift store?" Well, with the help of Polyvore I've compiled a few of my favorite looks (for day, and evening) that should have you feeling dangerously sassy in no time.

Quote Freely From The Article – Leave The Pseudonym Alone
According to a report from the United Kingdom's Telegraph, the world is not likely to face a severe fuel shortage, in-so-far as a declining supply of one particular type of fossil fuel is or might be concerned.
The story reports
Tony Hayward, BP's chief executive, said proven natural gas reserves around the world have risen to 1.2 trillion barrels of oil equivalent, enough for 60 years' supply – and rising fast.
"There has been a revolution in the gas fields of North America. Reserve estimates are rising sharply as technology unlocks unconventional resources," he said.
The story continues
Rune Bjornson from Norway's StatoilHydro said exploitable reserves are much greater than supposed just three years ago and may meet global gas needs for generations.
"The common wisdom was that unconventional gas was too difficult, too expensive and too demanding," he said, according to Petroleum Economist. "This has changed. If we ever doubted that gas was the fuel of the future – in many ways there's the answer."
The article points out that extracting natural gas from oil shale is a "messy" process and has many dangers from chemicals used in the refining process. So, as seems to be the case in any process that involves chemicals and heat there may be consequences to bear and costs to pay … maybe consequences impossible to bear and costs to expensive to pay.
For the United States, the article offers
As for the US, we may soon be looking at an era when gas, wind and solar power, combined with a smarter grid and a switch to electric cars returns the country to near energy self-sufficiency.
Not only might there be an abundant supply of the stuff, but if those that tout (as opposed to those that doubt) are correct, if the supply is actually developed, it could tip the economic fortunes of several countries upside down and might wreak financial havoc in some countries. You can read the article and follow other links to try to grasp the reasons this might happen GAS OR HOT AIR

MBTA's acting general manager reflects on his longer-than-expected tenure
If the MBTAs original plan had been carried out, Jonathan Davis would have been replaced as head of the T last December.
Instead, his last day as acting general manager will be Sunday, following an extra year at the position that came with numerous successes, but also many challenges, none more difficult than implementing controversial fare hikes and service cuts to balance the agencys annual budget.Still, Davis described the overall experience as positive: challenging, but fun. And, he looked on the bright side of many aspects of his tenure.
He even found a silver lining to the Ts service reduction and fare increases that began in July after months of emotional public outcry, including many face-to-face interactions with riders at a series of 31 public meetings, which Davis attended all of except four.
We had some tough conversations with our customers. But, I believe it has opened up a longer term discussion on adequately funding public transportation in Massachusetts, Davis said by phone Thursday. What weve heard is people want more service and wed like to do that but it really boils down to having adequate funding.
Its not a total surprise Davis likes discussing dollars. Before he began his 16-month stint as acting general manager, he was the MBTAs chief financial officer for more than 10 years. He will return to that job starting on Monday and he said he looks forward to continuing to talk about long-term ways to fund the Bay States mass transit, highways and bridges.
Were fortunate to live in an area where most people are very passionate and supportive of public transportation, he said.
Davis said other highlights during his time as acting general manager include how the T set record ridership figures and continued to post strong system-wide use after the service cuts and fare hikes took effect.
He also was particularly proud of several steps the agency took to improve customer service, like launching new ticketing and public safety smartphone applications and installing electronic train arrival countdown signs inside stations.
A husband and father of two, Davis, 64, rides the T every day. He takes a bus from his home in Medford to Haymarket and then rides the Orange Line to get to work.
What Ive loved about this job is the customers and the employees, he said, expressing thanks to both groups. It really has been an honor to represent all 6,000 men and women at the authority. It gave me a great appreciation for how hard all of our people work every day.
But, Davis time as T chief has included some hurdles. Despite launching a first-ever campaign to promote more courteous behavior toward T employees, allegations of riders assaulting operators have not seemed to slow. Drivers have also been accused of misconduct. While some major construction projects have wrapped up, slow progress on some work, as well as day-to-day service delays, persist.
"Jon from the first day jumped into a very difficult situation and just handled it I think beyond anyone's expectations," state transportation Secretary Richard A. Davey said by phone Thursday. "He just did a terrific job."
"In many ways, he's led the T through some of its most difficult times in recent history," Davey added. "He did it with class. He did it with grace. He did it engaging our customers and listening to their concerns. He was also a big supporter and appreciator of all of our employees as well and really has a sincere devotion and concern for them."
Davis took on the leading role in Sept. 2011 on an interim basis as the T began to search for a replacement for Davey, the former general manager who was promoted to head of the state transportation department. When Davis was named acting general manager, he was not being considered to take the job on a permanent basis. State officials also said then that they only expected him to fill in for about two months.
But Davis said this week that it became clear relatively early on in his tenure that he would probably be needed for longer than that. He said he was never fazed and has no complaints about his extended time in the role, saying that it actually has gone by very quickly.
I was prepared to serve however the Secretary and the board wanted, said Davis, who has worked for the T for nearly 18 years. I appreciate the opportunity they gave me.
In 2011, when he took on the agency's leading role, he made $147,600. This year, Davis' salary was $1,500 higher, which represents a year-to-year increase of 1 percent, the agency said. Beverly Scott, who will start her new role as general manager of the MBTA on Monday, is set to make $220,000 annually.
When asked about his future, Davis reiterated that hes ready and happy to do whatever his superiors ask.
His bosses are happy he'll continue to help the T try to sort out its finances.
"It's no secret that the MBTA and our entire transportation system faces yet another fiscal crisis this year because we continued to not get to the root of the problems," transportation secretary Davey said. "Jon is going to be an important part of [incoming general manager] Beverly Scott's and my team to, we hope, solve this once and for all."
Davis said he expects Sunday, his last day as acting general manager, to be like most others -- busy.
I understand were going to be seeing some snow next week, so well be working to get the system ready for that.
Still, he maintained an upbeat outlook.
I love working for the MBTA," Davis said. "Im having fun every day.

Josh Pastner led Memphis to an impressive victory over Belmont. (Icon SMI)
By Ryan Feldman email@example.com Wednesday, November 16, 2011
ESPN's 24-hour college basketball marathon got the sport off to a thunderous start on Tuesday. The marathon got underway late Monday night and saw 62 games take place on Tuesday. We saw some NCAA tournament-quality games, some upsets, and some exciting individual performances. Of the games that took place during the marathon, which team's win was the most impressive?5. DREXEL over Rider (80-62)Rider may be 0-3, but the Broncs are much better than that. They have a chance to compete for a MAAC title this season but are off to a tough start. Drexel, a team that will contend for a CAA title, went into a hostile environment in a small gym at 6 a.m. and came away with a victory. After the game was tied at the half, the Dragons rallied with an impressive second half performance. Samme Givens and Frantz Massenat led the charge with 21 points each.4. KENT STATE over West Virginia (70-60)West Virginia may not have the same expectations it has had the past few years, but it's still Bob Huggins and the Mountaineers. And they were at home. But Kent State, always a tough out in the MAC, came to Morgantown and showed it's for real this year. It's the first time WVU hasn't been 2-0 since 2003. Kent State's Carlton Guyton made a name for himself with a game-high 17 points, including a variety of impressive plays. The Golden Flashes held WVU to 37 percent shooting from the field.3. KENTUCKY over Kansas (75-65)John Calipari's teams often take a few weeks to get into the flow of things because of their youth. But the Wildcats took no time to get a meaningful win this year, defeating mighty Kansas on a neutral court at Madison Square Garden. With the game tied at the half, the 'Cats pulled away in the second half as all five starters scored in double figures. Anthony Davis was super impressive around the basket with 14 points, six rebounds and seven blocks, including a handful of ferocious throw-downs. This could be Calipari's most talented team he's ever had. If they can beat a team like Kansas on a neutral court in November, imagine what they'll be able to do in March after they learn how to play together.2. MIDDLE TENNESSEE STATE over UCLA (86-66)We understand that UCLA is not the same old UCLA that we're used to. Reeves Nelson has been suspended and the team is struggling right now. And of course the Bruins are playing in LA Sports Arena while Pauley Pavilion is being renovated. But Middle Tennessee State went to UCLA's "home court" and absolutely dominated the Bruins. This is a Middle Tennessee State team that is not known for ever accomplishing anything in basketball. Yet, they're now 3-0 with previous wins over Austin Peay and Loyola Marymount, which also won at UCLA. But here's the most impressive part: In their win over UCLA, the Blue Raiders shot 71.4 percent from the field. They had more turnovers than missed shots. They shot a better field goal percentage than free throw percentage. Seventy-one percent! That's unreal. Good offense or bad defense? Maybe both.1. MEMPHIS over Belmont (97-81)Sure, the Tigers were favored to beat Belmont. Memphis came into the game ranked in the top 15, while Belmont was not ranked. And it was at Memphis. But many believed the Bruins might pull off the upset, after coming within a point of Duke to start the season. Memphis started off up 16-4 but Belmont quickly got back into the game. Multiple times, after Memphis took a double-digit lead, the Bruins went on a run to cut the lead to just a few points. Finally, Memphis held off the furious comeback attempts for the win. But the Tigers impressed with their combination of speed, athleticism, length and outside shooting. They shot 59 percent from the field and 7-of-14 from 3-point range with only nine turnovers. Three different Memphis players scored at least 20 points (Will Barton, Wesley Witherspoon and Joe Jackson).

Marbury changes teams in China

08:05 AM ET 08.27 | Former NBA star Stephon Marbury is changing teams in China. According to Sina Sports, Marbury has agreed to a one-year contract with Beijing Shougang. The deal is worth anywhere from $100,000 per month to $1.4 million for the season, according to reports. Marbury played for the Foshan Darlions last season, averaging 25.2 points, 5.7 assists, 4.5 rebounds and 1.6 steals. Playing in China helps Marbury advance his "Starbury" line of inexpensive sneakers.
wasted talents, he could have done alot in the NBA
but at least he is doing something good in producing cheap sneakers

Do they love you long time, Bro?
Your shtick has run pretty dry, but you got a good chuckle out of me with that one.
Also: Wow, Starbury can't even stay on the same team over seas. What a great teammate he must be. ::eye-roll::
i wonder what they think of the star tattoo he got on his head
We like to poke fun at this guy, but this year, he may have the last laugh.While the rest of the league is out of work, Marbury is rolling along, playing pro ball, making decent money, and even taking care of the commercial side of things by selling shoes. His numbers suggest that he's doing quite well in that league as well.
His numbers suggest he is doing quite well in that league?
That's not that impressive, actually he should be putting a lot better numbers. If A-Rod was playing AA Ball, he would still be putting up "all star" worthy numbers...in a league with less talent.
After his declaration that MN was too cold for him, and Marbury wanted to play in the balmy weather closer to his hometown in NY, he was never viewed the same. The All Star game is based on player popularity, that's why even with his talent he was only elected twice. There is a reason that the player drafted right after him is still relevent and is still making an impact in the NBA.
He had the talent, but he didn't have the head and attitude to go with it. Another case of woulda coulda shoulda.

Yes, his numbers suggest he is doing quite well in that league, by their standards. Do you know of any coach who would balk at a player who averages 25/5/4/1 ? No **** it's not the NBA, that's kinda the point of the article.
Also did you just compare Marbury's performance in the NBA to A-Rod's in MLB? Apples to Oranges.
I thought this was a NBA T&R and rumor section? Out of country out of mind...

Nobody says Motorsport. That's just on the box incase the image of a CAR on the front doesn't give away what the game is about. This is what the game is about -
Collecting cars, painting cars and customising cars, and THEN racing in them.
This is what the game isn't about -
Listening to the engine noises and thinking Fuck Yeah, that's a fucking Ferrari Testarossa.
The engine noises are shit. The track textures are shit, which is only really a problem if you play in car. Which is more than half the planet. I wouldn't have noticed had I not played PGR3. Wait! Half the world has played PGR3. Not that I'm saying PGR3 is better (though it might be, it's hard to tell right now). What I'm saying is, Forza 2 isn't perfect. It's just FUCKING BRILLIANT. So far. After one night of collecting a car, painting it and racing it. I'll stick a body kit on it later, chosen purely on the basis of how it looks and not those stupid sliders on the side that assume I know what force drag coefficients are. All I know is, I want a hot Asian underage teenager to want to suck me off when she sees me in my Tokyo Drift tribute wagon. I'm road-safety-conscious, though, so I'll have to pull over and park before she Actions me. I can probably get a quick Battle tower Challenge in too, cos teenage girls have no idea how to suck cock. Boss Nonnu says.
The presentation is fucking brilliant. It's like someone saw the Ridge Racer presentation and said "I can do as good as that" and then did, but then didn't put a fucking SHIT game alongside it.
I like Dirt. That has nothing to do with its ability to convey the sensation of driving a car. It feels about as realistic as Outrun 2, though with less drifting. The car itself seems to be about 5kg heavy and the road surfaces are either "slippery" or "grippy", depending on if you're off-road or not. Well, that's an exaggeration, but not much of one. Dirt is most definitely an arcade racer. If it wasn't, it would be shit. It could do with some more colour, I think, but what do I know? I've hated all the previous Colin McRae games.
You only really need to know this about the physics -
Alex Grimbley (one of the developers): "they're one of the things about Dirt that we're most proud of. We've taken them right back to scratch and started afresh for the next-gen consoles. The physics we have now are probably about as realistic as you can get, and we're updating some of them 1000 times a second."
Only some of them? Which ones? Gravity? Anyway, SOME of them updating 1000 times a second isn't any use to me. I need them ALL to update 1000 times a second. For all those times when it's recalculating and the variables don't change, I have an incorrect result, because the variables are out of date. So this system is BULLSHIT. I know that's true because I spoke to a friend on MSN last night and he's an AI programmer. Admittedly we only talked about Pokemon but that has realtime physics so it's relevant.
Not that it matters. Dirt has just won. Any driving game that comes out now has to update AT LEAST 1000 times a second, or it's not as good. This is like when the Amiga added four million more colours than the Atari ST but nobody could tell the difference. Amiga won, midi ports or not. Dirt isn't just faster than my tv - it's faster than REAL LIFE.
Obviously, a hideous crime has been comitted here, but my custom character looks fucking amazing. Seriously.
PC version - check.
DS version - check.
Xbox Live version - check.
Real life deck of cards that aren't porno cards - negative.
It's like Halo 2 but better. My errection won't go away, possibly ever. Look.
They need to move the push to talk button. Somehow. Perhaps a footpedal. And a gearstick to change weapons.
Some people have clearly never stopped playing Halo 2 and they are now so good that the game must surely be slightly meaningless for them. I'm not one of those people. I still get excited when I headshot someone.
The sound design alone is insane, the muffled sound of distant gunfire and the sound of bullets whizzing past your head are both stunning and the explosions are comical. Which is how an explosion should be.
Amazing Squad will clearly be reforming come September and we'll kick your ass unless you're better than us in which case we'll lose, potentially very badly.
Overall, I would give Halo 3 Beta 10/10. Okay, goodbye!
Sound balance is wrong. You have to turn everything off and turn the engine right up for it to be anything remotely like being in a car. Thankfully, the demo lets you do exactly that.
It risks being dry to the point of being cold and mechanistic, but Forza 2 is seriously fucking wicked.
Still 0/10, though. VRRRROOOM YOU FUCKERS.
It has shit fucking teeth, vacant glazed over eyes and you want to kick the living shit out of it everytime you see it. It's the only pokemon that I won't run from for quickness - I'll batter it every time.
BUT! Pokefans! I urge you, keep one in your party. You can teach it Rock Smash, Rock Climb, Strength and Cut.
If you play Pokemon, this has just become the best thing you'll read on the internet today.
Catan is a board game. I feel I need to state that before we go any further, because when you see the score at the end (a million out of 10), if you have any sense you go and download this game for 800pts immediately. But you don't have any sense, obviously, because you're reading this fucking blog and all we fucking do is swear so if you're down for that you're probably not too bright.
So you probably don't care about how the recent Civ was alright at first, but once you realised how over-simplified it was, there was actually no point to it. They tried to streamline it, because they didn't understand what it was about the game that was amazing - it was the micro management. It was! Fuck off. How many games did you play before you got bored? Exactly. And then you went back to Alpha Centauri because it was the best and regretted telling everyone it was a 90% game. It's a fair cop, I did the same thing.
Catan is like a simplified Civ, in that it's about collecting resources, forming shapes on the board that maximise your resource collection while minimising your opponents' resources and it's about trading with other people. Which is kind of like Civ, only a game of Catan doesn't take up to three months, so you can actually find people to play with. Also, it's possible for a normal human being to be able to hold everything that's happening in the game in their head at one time, which is another thing that makes it better than Civ.
It's Civ crossed with Risk. There, I said it. If you liked either of those games (Civ before they fucked it, of course) then you'll probably like Catan. If you liked both then you'll crap your pants with glee. If you don't like either then you may be charmed by Catan's simple but effective representation of the board game, but not for long. You are also probably stupid and have a small dick.
The interface! It's perfect. Sending emotes are a bit fiddly but that's because they're prioritised ease of operation and information presentation, so that's fine. I need that more than I need to send fireballs to other players' avatars.
Graphics - COMPLETE PHOTO REALISM. 10 out of 10.
Sound - Amazing music, which is pretty much par for the course with Live Arcade games. 10 out of 10.
Playability - Arcade perfect. 100 out of 10.
Replayability - limitless! As they say. Or until you get bored. I mean, what the fuck does this mean anyway? Do most people when finishing a game play through it again immediately or do they go and play another game? Honestly, what the fuck is the point of commenting on how replayable something is? I don't care! I'm going to play more games in my life than just this one, so I don't need to know how great it is a second time through. Still, I'll score it 1000 out of 10, just to be on the safe side.
Overall (not an average!) - 1,000,000 out of 10. If you like that sort of thing. It's fun! And other cliches.
The new king of Live Arcade and proof that the Xbox 360 is the daddy.
WHY THE FUCK can't I assign more than one item to quick select? What is this shit? Some fucking restrictionist exercise in deciding which item will get used the most? You're only allowing me six pokemons and four moves so FUCK YOU. FUCK YOU.
I want to be able to RIDE MY BIKE and then hop off to USE MY FISHING ROD without having to use the fucking menus that seem to take A FUCKING ICE AGE TO FUCKING LOAD FOR NO GOOD FUCKING REASON.
GAH. This is almost as bad as the box management options.
In other news, zomg my LUXRAY is so fucking badass and he FUCKING LOVES ME. I wish I could take him for walks in the park. :(
