FIA Stewards have retrospectively excluded Production Car World Rally Championship leader Nasser Al-Attiyah from the Acropolis Rally of Greece after deciding his car's engine did not conform to Group N technical regulations.
Al-Attiyah finished second in the P-WRC category in Greece to hold a four point series lead with just the two rounds in Australia and Great Britain to go.
But the results of the rally, which finished on 14 June, were always subject to a post event inspection of the engine fitted to Al-Attiyah's Subaru Impreza. And today in Finland Stewards reconvened to discuss the findings, and hear from Al-Attiyah's team representative Ken Skidmore and David Lapworth the technical director of Prodrive - the firm which built the engine.
The investigation centred on modifications made to the crankshaft in Al-Attiyah's car which had been machined by Prodrive in order to make it better balanced. Lapworth said the machining was regarded by Prodrive as 'normal servicing' and was therefore completely legal.
However the Stewards disagreed and concluded that the part had been modified and was not in conformity with the technical regulations. The Stewards added that they understood and agreed with Skidmore that the machining was not the fault of the entrant (Barwa Rally Team), or Al-Attiyah himself.
An appeal has been lodged against the Stewards decision, which means that for now the championship standings are unchanged and Al-Attiyah still leads the series. However if the Stewards decision is upheld, Portugal's Armindo Araujo will move into the series lead, six points clear of Nasser. Both Al-Attiyah and Araujo have one more qualifying round left this season.
If the Stewards decision is upheld Patrik Sandell, Eyvind Brynildsen, Martin Prokop and Toshi Arai will also have mathematical chances of winning this year's P-WRC title.

Shumlin hopes to drum up investors at Fla. trip
COLCHESTER — Vermont Gov. Peter Shumlin is traveling to Miami to attract investors for a big economic development project in the Northeast Kingdom.
Developer Bill Stenger hopes to use foreign investments raised through a program called EB-5 to expand Jay Peak Resort, build a bio-tech research and manufacturing center, and make upgrades to the state airport in Coventry.
Shumlin said he promised Stenger and his partners to help raise the $600 million they estimate will be needed to create some 10,000 jobs in the area.

After the upgrade of the switch this "Mbits versus packet size curve" (obtained by netpipe) looked OK. So I figured problem was solved, and started testing the speedup of the cluster, and this also looked reasonably up to three nodes, but after that it was really lousy.

text: Based on a BBC radio series of the same name, the British TV sitcom World of Pub starred Phil Cornwell and Peter Serafinowicz as Barry and Garry, the owners of the single most unsuccessful public house (or bar) in London's East End. In their efforts to improve what little business they had, Barry and Garry were susceptible to the outrageous promotional schemes of their buddy Dodgy Phil (Kevin Eldon). These schemes, which ran the gamut from a chug-a-lug competition to transforming the pub into a Michael Caine-themed establishment, were invariably doomed to hilarious failure. The TV version of World of Pub ran for six episodes, from June 24 to July 29, 2001. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Seventy-First guard Marcus Williams had seen it before.
Greenville Rose, visiting as the No. 14 seed against the third-seeded Falcons, conceded the game but preserving some pride by holding the ball for more than a minute as the clock ran out.
"Teams have done that when we get close to 100," Williams said. "Then the crowd starts saying, 'We want a bucket.' "
The Falcons (25-2) waited out the clock to beat the Rampants (10-15) 97-64 in the first round of the NCHSAA 4-A state playoffs on Monday night.
Seventy-First will host No. 6 seed Garner (22-4) of the Greater Neuse River Conference on Wednesday. The Trojans advanced after defeating Pine Forest 70-52.
Williams helped the Falcons near the century mark with a game-high 34 points, including seven 3-point goals.
The Falcons jumped all over the Rampants from the start, outscoring Rose 30-19 in the first quarter on the strength of the veteran backcourt's long-distance shooting.
Williams hit two 3-pointers in the frame, and fellow senior Quincy Swait added a trio of 3s.
Swait finished the night with 14 points. Senior point guard Sidney Knox scored 12.
"We felt like we had to come out with a lot of intensity," Williams said. "As a team that has a lot of seniors knowing we didn't want this to be our last game, so we all just played hard tonight."
Rose was led by guard Eric Smith, who scored 20 points on the night.
Falcons coach David Simmons said the Rampant guards pointed out an area where Seventy-First could tighten things up before facing Garner.
"We want to always improve on the defensive end," Simmons said. "I thought they hurt us early on with their penetration. But we were able to make that adjustment."

Which is the best screen recording program? CanStudio, HyperCam, Fraps and any other! I want you guys to answer two thing 1)Which is the best screen recording program to record normal windows? 2)Which is the best screen recording program to gameplay? I can buy premium also so don't hesitate to recommend paid product and i want it to record at 1mb/per minute not like camstudio 1.5GB for 30mins! --
I always liked Snag-It, though I never tried it with 3D Games, just training and marketing videos for AutoCAD.
The rare time I record video from my PC I use the free recording built into MSI afterburner. It supposedly records audio too, but my vids are always video only.
What size does it makes vids? I want 1mb/per minute size example : 30minutes = 30mb Is this even possible?
I haven't used it in so long I do not recall, but it was definitely dependant on the screen resolution. Also may also depend on the complexity of the screen being captured if the output is compressed. So it probably isn't a 1:1 relationship.
You're going to have trouble recording on that hardware. 1Gb of memory and a Pentium 4 isn't exactly known for handling real time media well. Just a friendly warning.
When I had a Core 2 Duo it didn't do a good job at it either, why not something modern? I don't know what you use your computer for, how much money you have, or what you have at your disposal, but if I were you I would just go for a straight up modern computer. At bare minimum, I would say a quad-core with the memory controller on the CPU. It doesn't seem very practical to build a new machine just to record your screen well imho.
Depends on the resolution, at 1080p, good luck with quality. At 480p should look great, 720p it should look pretty good at that kind of bitrate.
No it's not possible... But if U want a good software that have not so big file size try Action (in search engine Mirillis Action). Nobody says anything about it because it's new. I tested a lot of recording software because of my job. I can tell U that there is only two choices. Fraps and Action. Action is cheaper have lower CPU usage and better layout. Fraps is more know in gamer world because of time that he is on the market. It record in full hd by the way and U can automatically put the record on YouTube cellphone or Facebook. You can try 30 day trial and look on Your own.. Take care
Fraps works good for me, it records audio as well as video, even when im talking into my mic, but for some reason the videos that fraps record always have higher contrast and you cant see much stuff in dark areas, but I think its because I use it in 540p mode. Either one you choose, your not going to get 30mb per 30 minutes, no way no how.
Try to downloading Action and recording with the same settings. If U will have the same problem its because of 540p mode. But in action U can manually change levels. Action record audio and video too. It is just an alternative for Fraps and i understand someone like better Fraps i used to use it for long time so i understand too but without testing another software u don't know what u are missing
As I mentioned before on other "what´s the best recording......" topics and since you have a "low end" machine my advice is buy a DVR. You can buy DVR´s from 80€ [100USD] and that´s all you need, you can even have a 386DX4 and not having any problem recording @ 1080p. Connect the GPU to DVR, DVR to TV, Monitor etc and press record.
Well downloaded Action! and i am impressed with the vid quality but it is still big at the lowest settings 1min/25Mb i will like it if it were 5-10 mb btw, it is better then FRAPS **EDIT: Also it only have 480p, 720p and 1080p no 360p why? if it were at 360p it will be smaller vid size. Well you guys say that it is not possible to record at 1mb/min but how the guys on youtube do it well they do not do 1:1 but they do 3-4 min in 20mb with a above average quality.**

The Who: Quadrophenia Live
The struggles of a disillusioned young mod to come of age in the tumultuous 1960's is portrayed with musical thunder as The Who's Quadrophenia comes to the stage in this filmed version of the live performance taken from the band's 1996-1997 U.S. concert tour. Then-unknown actor Alex Langdon steps into the lead role of troubled youth Jimmy, with PJ Proby and Billy Idol dropping in for special cameo appearances. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Italian horror auteur Dario Argento produced and co-wrote (with director Lamberto Bava) this gory, nightmarish horror film set almost entirely within the "Metropol," a huge, cathedral-like Berlin cinema showing an invitation-only screening of a rather lame slasher film. The difference, of course, is that the cheap scares on the Metropol's screen are child's play compared to the horrors which soon emerge to lay hold of the unsuspecting filmgoers: when a young woman is scratched by part of a display in the theatre lobby, she begins to mutate into a fanged, slavering creature who then attacks other audience members, spreading the demonic infection until only a handful of survivors are forced to combat rampaging armies of inhuman beasts, making the latter portion of the film resemble Night of the Living Dead. A handful of sequels followed; there's a little "reward" for those who stick around for the end credits. ~ Cavett Binion, Rovi

More than anything else, 13-year old New Jerseyite Josh (David Moscow) wants to be "big". That's the wish he makes at an odd-looking amusement pier fortunetelling machine. The next morning, Josh wakes up-only to discover that he's grown to manhood overnight! (At this point, the part is taken over by Tom Hanks). Still a 13-year-old mentally and emotionally, Josh decides to hide out in New York City until he can figure out what to do next. He lucks into a job with a major toy company run by kid-at-heart McMillan (Robert Loggia). By cannily bringing a child's eye view to McMillan's business, Josh rises to the top-and in process, he falls in love with fellow employee Susan (Elizabeth Perkins). But he's still a kid, and he'd like to go back to his own world and own body. Written by Gary Ross and Anne Spielberg, Big proved a crucial success for budding director Penny Marshall, who'd work harmoniously with Hanks again on the radically different A League of Their Own. The cinematography was by Barry Sonenfeld, who went on to become a director himself with The Addams Family. That Big was heavily reliant upon the input of Tom Hanks and Penny Marshall was proven by the failed attempt to turn the property into a Broadway musical. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Controversial and often offensive stand-up comedian Andrew Dice Clay made his debut as a feature film star in this crude comedy. Fairlane is a "rock and roll detective" who works in the music business, has an office on Sunset Boulevard, and drives a 1957 Ford, with clothing to match. He floats through the rock clubs of Hollywood, picking up women and clients, and soon stumbles into a case involving the death of a heavy metal singer, a corrupt music executive (Wayne Newton), the murder of a radio shock-jock (Gilbert Gottfried), and the kidnapping of the jock's daughter (Maddie Corman). Music stars like Sheila E. and Motley Crue singer Vince Neil also have cameos in the film, which attempts to transplant Clay's aggressively obnoxious stage persona into a movie environment. ~ Don Kaye, Rovi

Val Kilmer delivers what was considered one of 1991's best performances as Jim Morrison in Oliver Stone's hallucinatory bio-pic of the seminal 1960s rock group The Doors. Stone cuts a jagged swath through Morrison's life, starting with a childhood memory where Morrison sees an elderly Indian dying by the roadside. It picks up with Morrison's arrival in California and his assimilation into the Venice Beach culture, followed by his film school days at UCLA; his introduction to his girlfriend Pamela Courson (Meg Ryan); his first encounters with Ray Manzarek (Kyle MacLachlan); and the origin of The Doors -- made up of Manzarek, Robby Kreiger (Frank Whaley), and John Densmore (Kevin Dillon). As the fame of The Doors grows, Morrison's obsession with death increases. The band grows weary of Morrison's missed recording sessions and no-shows at concerts. Morrison, meanwhile, sinks deeper into a drug-induced haze, having mystical sexual encounters with Patricia Kennealy (Kathleen Quinlan), an older rock journalist involved with sadomasochism and witchcraft. ~ Paul Brenner, Rovi

A group of mobsters fight for control in this satirical comedy-drama. Vic (Richard Dreyfuss) is a not-especially-stable crime boss who -- following a spell in a mental hospital after being diagnosed with schizophrenia -- is sent home and is ready to resume his place as supreme leader of the mob. Mickey Holliday (Jeff Goldblum), Vic's enforcer and right hand man, is trying to get everything squared away for Vic's return, which may complicate his personal life, since he's been having an affair with Vic's girlfriend Grace (Diane Lane), as well as her sister Rita (Ellen Barkin). While Vic has been away, a number of other gangsters have been squabbling over who will take control of his territories, including Jake Parker (Kyle MacLachlan), Jules Flamingo (Gregory Hines), and Jacky Johnson (Burt Reynolds). However, it's the seriously eccentric Ben London (Gabriel Byrne) who turns out to be Mickey's and Vic's most potent rival as the various gangsters shoot it out over who gets what piece of the pie. Inspired in part by the "Rat Pack" crime flicks of the 1960s -- such as Ocean's Eleven and Robin and the Seven Hoods -- Mad Dog Time (also released under the title Trigger Happy) was written and directed by former actor Larry Bishop, son of Rat Packer Joey Bishop, who pops up in a small role. Larry's co-star from Wild in the Streets, Christopher Jones, appears in a supporting role as a gunman; it was his first film appearance since Ryan's Daughter in 1970. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

Mousse up your hair and pull your Missing Persons records out of mothballs for this romantic comedy set in that era of questionable fashion decisions, the '80s. In 1985, Robbie Hart (Adam Sandler) is a vocalist whose rock band stubbornly refuses to get off the ground. In the meantime, he makes a living playing wedding receptions, where his easy charm and ability to schmooze brings him a steady income. Robbie meets Julia Sullivan (Drew Barrymore) when she's working as a waitress at one of his wedding gigs; he immediately takes a shine to her, but since he's engaged, he keeps his distance. Robbie learns that Julia is also engaged; unfortunately, her fiancée Glen Gulia (Matthew Glave) is an obnoxious, self-obsessed yuppie who is chronically unfaithful to her. When Robbie gets stood up at the altar by his fiancée, it's a crushing blow to his ego, and he moves from working weddings to bar mitzvahs to avoid the humiliating issue of matrimony, and he considers giving up on music altogether. In time, Robbie realizes that he needs to step in and stop Julia from marrying Glen before the woman he's come to love ruins her life. Adam Sandler's former Saturday Night Live co-stars Kevin Nealon and Jon Lovitz make cameo appearances, as do Steve Buscemi and Billy Idol -- as himself. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

This futuristic animated adventure is based on the graphic novel The Melting Pot, created by noted comic artists Kevin Eastman, Simon Brisley, and Eric Talbot and published by the creators of the well-known graphics magazine Heavy Metal. In a distant universe, the acronym F.A.K.K. (Federation Assigned Ketogenic Killzone) is used to designate places of extreme danger to all life forms. In a bid to keep out unwelcome visitors, the quiet civilization of Eden has designated itself as F.A.K.K., level two. However, a lunatic named Tyler (voice of Michael Ironside) invades Eden, and when he discovers Eden's secrets -- life-preserving if respected, deadly when abused -- he lays waste to the civilization, leaving behind only a female warrior named Julie (voice of Julie Strain). Julie sets out to find Tyler, determined to see the secrets of Eden returned to safety and eager to take her revenge for the slaughter of her people. Unlike the 1981 film Heavy Metal, Heavy Metal 2000 tells one long story rather than several shorter ones; in keeping with the first movie, it does features a soundtrack by a number of noted rock bands, including Monster Magnet, Pantera, Days of the New, Insane Clown Posse, System of a Down, Coal Chamber, and others. Heavy Metal 2000 was released in Europe as Heavy Metal F.A.K.K. 2. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

ohh excuse me silvio... he said and instead of the symbol... how many shirts with an ampersand can u have? google it. its not original. -
melbel said 229 weeks ago
dont get me wrong the artwork on the side is great... im just dont like shirts that resemble other shirts. -
silvioislame said 229 weeks ago
The designs don't look anything alike, and how do you know the other ones were made before his, your assuming, not showing any facts what so ever other than a picture and acting all high and mighty about how its already been done.
this shirt has a completely different feel then the one you showed, the line work on the ampersand its different, and much more outlined, let alone and instead of the symbol. -
MJ said 229 weeks ago
guitardriver6- the Jimiyo shirt is coming up soon, and it's fantastic :) We had to rearrange a few things to make room for that epic birthday collab shirt! -
melbel said 229 weeks ago
uhh lets see... if i already own this shirt... it was obviously printed before this one. thats kinda common sense.
and IN MY OPINION they are extremely similar... they are both ampersands with "and" inside of them... except this one is spelled out.
you need to smoke a joint or something, there is no need to jump down someones throat it is a tshirt website, we arent debating the war or abortion. Take it down a notch. -
MJ said 229 weeks ago
melbel, I think what he is trying to say is that we have no way of knowing which was designed first.
Personally, I see them as being pretty different thematically (though similar in construction). The one you linked is about how ampersands look, this one is about what ampersands ARE, to me anyway. -
melbel said 229 weeks ago
Mj--> No I understand what you are both saying... all im saying is how many ampersand shirts can you own? I just think like... when I do my designs and my paintings... I google stuff to see if there is something like it... I dont want any of my art to look like someone elses.. its supposed to be original.. and I just see it as & means and... so its the sam idea but instead if & it says and. It is just my opinion, Im not asking for anyone to agree with me, I thought that was the point of posting comments... to express our opinions. I have already said that I enjoy the side work and I checked out the portfolio.. Its great... but this is just my opinion on the shirt. -
silvioislame said 229 weeks ago
mel, apparently you don't know how designs work, they arn't designed and put up the day of. The design could have been in a portfolio from before, therefore, this guy could have designed it before and just had it printed now, and yours just happened to get printed then, there really is no way of knowing, i was just point that out, you say don't get down my throat about me jumping down someones throat and then you do it right back.
So next time you say someone lacks common sense, make sure you know what your talking about, or what they are really saying -
melbel said 229 weeks ago
I didnt jump down anyones throat, i was trying to express MY OPINION. Just like I told MJ.... the shirt had already been printed... whether it was designed first or not... it had already been printed. I do know how designs work... I went to college for it. My mother is vp of a printing company. I know how designs work and I know that it doesnt do any good sitting in a portfolio.
(some comments deleted) -
silvioislame said 229 weeks ago
Thank you Mel for putting words in my mouth
I never said only my opinion matters, i stated my opinion, everything you are saying I am doing, you are doing, seriously, read back everything you have said
To stop this pointless argument, I really don't care what you think, i was pointing out the fact that this is a great design, and also, it is well done and much different then anything else i've normally seen.
Now, go ahead, say more demeaning things towards me -
MJ said 229 weeks ago
Cut out the name calling and personal attacks, guys. It's okay to agree to disagree. Anything that sounds like an insult is getting deleted. -
Sirknifesalot said 229 weeks ago
Damn MJ, where are you when I get personally attacked all the time. LOL! :P -
nomnomnom said 229 weeks ago

But the T-shirt is nice.

Nocturne Series in Blackpool
Photos by Luke Bosman.
Over 4,000 spectators turned out for the Blackpool Nocturne on Saturday 1st August 2009. The third and final round of the series did not disappoint as cycling fans watched the racing along the North Promenade of Britain's famous seaside town. Even the passing tribes of stag and hen-do's, decked out in various fancy dress costumes, stopped to watch the action.
Beneath the Blackpool illuminations Olympic gold medallist Ed Clancy of Halfords sprinted to victory in the Elite Criterium. Kristian House, Rapha Condor's National Champion, made the first move over the 1km drag-strip style course. House opened a big gap but was chased down by the main pack, headed by CandiTV and Halfords. A group then broke away including Malcolm Elliott, Ian Wilkinson, Ed Clancy, Darren Lapthorne and Dean Downing. Matt Cronshaw put in a fizzing attack in the final three laps in an attempt to win on his local turf. However, Ian Wilkinson brought it back on the final circuit and Clancy was able to sprint out of sight of Dean Downing and Malcolm Elliott.
The Hoteliers Challenge allowed local hotel owners and staff to take the title of being the fastest in Blackpool. Matt Cossins from Sandford Hotel took the victory.
Rapha London's Graeme Raeburn won his second Folding Bike Race of the series upon his pink Brompton. Look out next season for a 100% record.
The Cycling Weekly Support Race was easily won by Phil Hersey of Eagle RC, almost lapping the field towards the end.
Swiss track star Franco Marvulli arrived in Blackpool with no bike and kit. He had to walk the length of Blackpool's promenade asking to borrow equipment from various teams. Fortunately Rapha Condor had a spare 57cm bike for him and Marvulli eventually finished in 18th place, between Rapha's Kristian House and Tom Southam.

I rode the Rapha Sportive. Firstly i must say i thought it was very poorly turned out. Also the signage was poor, the feed stations had little or none refreshments, no water only energy drinks, and to top off a very poor organsized sportive when we got back to the finish there was no refreshments or a rapha stand which was promised.
All other sportives i have done in the past you get a goody bag, for the money i spent on this sportive it was a total waste of money. No value for money, I will not be doing your sportive again.
I would like your response to the above.
I will also be passing on this email to cycling weekly to see what they think.
Your a very unhappy sportive rider, cold and hungry.

Looking for some ideas on griliing a turkey breast. Indirect? What temperature? Type of wood smoke? Seasonings?
For turkey breast I would either smoke it or grill indirect. If it's skinless, I'd smoke at 220-250*. With skin on, I'd grill indirect at 325* to help get that crisp skin.
For wood smoke I would use pecan which is fantastic with poultry, but hickory, maple, or the fruit woods would be good too. Those are all pretty mild in flavor, but you still want to be careful not to use too much smoke as you can easily overpower chicken or turkey with smoke, leaving too strong a flavor.
You may want to consider using a brine, which would help keep the breast from drying out and will also add flavor. Last Thanksgiving, I smoke roasted a whole turkey using a brine (first time using a brine) and it was the best turkey I've ever tasted. Had great flavor and was very moist throughout.
I tried something for the first time this past weekend…..spatchcock turkey! It turned out great, especially for those of us that like the dark meat.
300 degrees, indirect, with apple wood for smoke. Cooked until breast was 170 and thigh 180.
That's excellent. I haven't tried smoking turkey outside of Thanksgiving but I bet the leftovers would make great sandwiches
Even better than sandwiches with that leftover turkey, I like to use mine to make a big pot of turkey & smoked sausage gumbo. In fact, sometimes I'll smoke turkey or chicken along with some sausage specifically for this use. I pick all the meat off the bones and boil the carcass to make the stock. Even if I'm not making gumbo, I'll use the carcass for stock even if it's to freeze for later use, as it makes excellent smokey flavored stock and gets more use for your dollar. Also, making that stock leaves the wonderful aroma of that pecan smoked turkey or chicken throughout my entire apartment for a day or so, and you just can't buy air freshener like that in any store
If there's not enough left for gumbo, those leftovers do make a great sandwich.

hoyohi University New Orleans THE MAROON VOL. 79, NO. 05 FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 2001 MAROON.LOYNO.EDU Identity theft a problem on campuses By Eldred Gregory Laborie Staff writer Students are at risk of having their identities stolen, as Loyola becomes one of the many schools across the nation at risk for fraud, according to Lt. Angela Honora of university police. A Loyola student and a member of the Tulane University faculty first brought the identity theft problem to the attention of University Police two semesters ago when their personal information was stolen and used. Honora said. Honora said she received additional information from administrators at a Florida university, where identity fraud has already become a serious issue. According to Honora, someone removed several credit card applications from the Bank of America. The perpetrator was going around Florida university campuses posing as a Bank of America employee. Using the information on the applications, this person then was able to acquire credit cards in the names of the students who had filled out the application. With this information, he could charge the maximum amount allowed by each credit line. According Honora's information, 11 people were apprehended for committing these crimes, some dressed in business attire and some posing as students. The Florida campuses also were able to get in touch with the Bank of America's investigative unit in No changes for Danna Center By Erin Williamson Contributing writer Students hoping for major changes to the Danna Center won't be seeing them any time in the foreseeable future. According to Chris Cameron, director of the Danna Center and Student Activities, the main issue hindering improvements and renovations is a lack of money. "Part of the issue is the life of the building. Two years ago 1 was told that in five years we would have a new building: Now this year it's indefinite, and I'm fine with indefinite. But when the time comes for university budget allocations, there's just no money to go around," he said. Much of the the downstairs part of the consists of old office space used for storage. Cameron said the area is in such bad shape it probably wouldn't be worth the money to fix it. The rooms are small; the ceiling panels are falling; ventilation is poo;, and the pipes leak, he said. Until the school replaces the building or allocates more money, the situation is not likely to change, Cameron said. When the Rev. Bernard Knoth, S.J., university president, released the plans for campus renovations and improvements last year, the Danna Center was not among the various projects listed. "The argument, which is a valid argument that comes from Dr. Eiseman, Father Knoth and the business and Finance people, is that it's like a used car. How much more money do you want to put into it before you buy a new one? But in the interim, you're still in the old one," Cameron said. "So we're just trying to make do." According to Jennifer Dinsmore, assistant director of Student Activities and head of Commuter Services, the lockers in the lower Danna Center are other spaces that get little use. STAFF PHOTO BY CHUCK COSTELLO Jennifer Dinsmore, assistant director for Student Activities and director of Commuter Services, Jason Smith, visual arts junior, and Elida Erickson, history senior, chat during Commuter Coffee Talk in the Danna Center. Buchta editor of Wolf and magazine By Julia Stackler Staff writer Students will see Loyola's Wolf magazine and yearbook again this year. The magazine, expected to appear at least three times this school year, may assume the name Flow (Wolf spelled backwards), and the yearbook, keeping the Wolf name, will be the last edition of the year. Elizabeth Buch t a , "ifs going to be graphic design enough so that junior, is wel| be ab|e tQ editor of both . . . , . look back at our the magazine and yearbook. yearbook years Th e from now and magazine will remember the present pictures that we photos, see." columns and features, and _ iiaßy The Wolf will P|VKIK| QrA likely be in a FLYNN, SGA traditional PRESIDENT form AND FINANCE .including SENIOR, On student mug the future Qf sh° 1 s ' The Wolf organization iiicvvuh photos and Y63rbook. coverage of campus events among its offerings, said Liz Scott, student media adviser and part time communications instructor. Student Government Association president and finance senior Mary Flynn said that results of an SGA survey show that students favor a traditional yearbook. The Rev. Bernard Knoth, S.J., university president, met with Scott, Flynn and Buchta Wednesday to Business school ranked as one of nation's best By Curie Veronica Jones Contributing writer Faculty, staff pleased with school's posision in "U.S. News" Loyola's business school was ranked 130 out of more than 750 schools with business programs in the U.S. News and World Report 2002 college rankings. This is the first time the business school has been ranked. Several faculty and staff members are pleased with the business school's accomplishements. "We're ranked. That's a positive thing," said Caroline Fisher, a professor at the school. With this ranking, Loyola is ii the top 35 percent of all busines: schools in the nation. "I am tickled to death. This is a great thing. We've been working "I am tickled to death. This is a great thing. We've been working very hard for this for a number of years." - PATRICK O'BRIEN,DEAN OF THE BUSINESS SCHOOL, On the business school's ranking in U.S. News and World Report very hard for this for a number of years," said Patrick O'Brien, dean of the business school The publication surveyed officials at undergraduate business programs that are accredited by the Advanced Collegiate Schools of B us i n e s according to the U.S. News and World Report Web site. Deans and senior faculty from business schools across the nation rated the quality of all programs that they were aware of on a scale of one, marginal, to five, distinguished. Schools also were ranked by the specialty courses that were offered in certain areas of business, such as international business, marketing and accounting. Although Loyola's business school specializes in international business, it was not ranked in any of these specific categories.

Sheffield United 3 West Ham United 0 (14/04/07)Moderator: Gnome An afterthought, what a difference a week makes. Last week I was throwing Lager down my neck in celebration of such an unlikely win.
This week I'm comfort eating heaps of Chinese to ease the pain of a devastating defeat. Fortunes always hiding eh?
sums the bloke up. a bottling ****. off direct topic: as for all that "thank you for admitting you're a weak willed ****.....now you can be our hero" b*llocks.....what a load of cobblers
I ****ing despise the **** !! Please, get that **** out of our Football Club, sooner rather than later !!
Just got back from the game. A few thoughts:
We had three golden opportunities to equalise. One of them was a great save. If any of them had gone in, we would have gone on to win. C'est la vie. We weren't relegated today, we were relegated when we lost to Watford at home, when we were thrashed by Charlton, when Reading took us to the cleaners, etc etc. I don't know what Curbishley was playing at with his substitutions. I haven't read anything on this thread or elsewhere, so don't know why he took Noble off, but for me we should have taken off a fullback. And then, bringing on Muggins. WHY?!!!! The guy's utter *****. How many times do we need to see this guy fail to demonstrate basic footballing skill. Well, you brought him on, Curbishley, within two minutes he gave the ball away under no pressure because he can't execute one simple ****ing pass, and they nip in and tidy things off - goal. I'll tell you who I'd subsititute next. Alan ****ing Curbishley. It is becoming clear to me that he is a retard. It's your money, Magnusson, or rather - it's NOT your money, it's Gudmundsson's - and if you insist on pissing it up the wall with a tactically gormless manager, then maybe it will be you that gets subsitituted by Gudmundsson in due course. Mullins is ****, Curbishley is ****. Thanks Carlos, thanks Lucas - I hope you stay, and unlucky with the shot that Kenny did well to stop. b*llocks But nice weather today up in Sheffield. And that's the main thing.
At last, someone is in the REAL World !!!
Red orangutan confirms true statement.
To be honest I thought we were pretty much beaten fair and square. The Neill shot was a good save, the Tevez shot was abysmal for a player of his calibre (not saying he doesn't try, he does more than most but the fact remains), not sure what the 3rd chance your referring to was but the point is they scored three very good goals and created chances. I don't think you can say we would have gone on to win it, our defence looked dodgy all game and I am sure we would have conceded at least 2 even if we had equalised. I think we have to admit we have once again been well and truly outplayed by one of the worst teams in the division as has happened numerous times this season. We have lost at home twice to the side who are bottom of the league, we have lost to Charlton, we have lost to Wigan, we have failed to beat Fulham. As much as I hate to say it we do not deserve to stay up, especially considering the potential of the squad we have on paper. The problem is we have a team that does not have the motivation or fighting spirit of a team such as Sheff Utd. Sheff Utd have results wise performed as bad as us all season, but they still went and beat us 3-0 today. If we had their attitude, we would not be in the position we are in. We could still stay up now if we had the right attitude, we are a much better team on paper than Sheff Utd but we have a squad full of players who don't care if we get relegated because they will just **** off somewhere else and for me that is what it boils down to. Oh and the fact we now have a manager who it seems has taken it upon himself to fall out with half the squad and let it influence his team selections. If Pardew was still in charge (and I never, ever called for Pardew's head even when we playing **** in the 2nd Divison) I don't believe we would be in this situation.
King Louis has more of a brain than many on here !!!
I had resigned myself to relegation after we had lost to Watford and Charlton. Then when you see some light at the end of the tunnel and you think you might escape it just caves in on you .
Yessss i was when she kept singing 'going down going down going down' she was on fire today
I know it may be hard to face but yeah we are in the championship All weve got to look forward to is a few games at home where we can hopefully build our confidence ready for next season, a few away games which are just for the giant conga lines and then we have the summer........oh the summer..........where we offload players for half the price we could of got for them in January and watch them develop into englands "world class" players eg joe cole, michael carrick and that fat ****. This is the reality and although it seems harsh thats the way it goes
Anyone see any bother at the game today? Don't know if the OB were expecting anything but all the riot police lined up at half time on the concourse was a bit over the top.
Although tempers were getting frayed towards the end.
Well, to me, we played almost the same today as against Arsenal. We were lucky then not to get thrashed, and unlucky today not to draw. What I saw today was a Sheff U side very focused on targetting and throttling any play we had; almost the only WH player that managed to shake that off was NRC. The game today exposed the essential weakness of this side- that the formation has a weak left wing, and virtually no right wing at all. Hardly any play goes down to the corners, so that the opposition can concentrate on snuffing out our only two sources of attack- on the floor through the middle or long balls over the top. At least the fact that we can now occasionally do the former marks some kind of progress. I don't know if Harewood (on the right) or Benayoun would have made any difference- neither are real wingers, but the present system of NRC, Noble and Bowyer gives no width at all. NRC and Bowyer did appear on the right wing now and then, but you could see that neither had any desire to take play forward down the wing; they drifted inside as soon as they could. At least, from when I've seen him there, Harewood is quite disciplined when he's on the right wing- he tends to stay in position, and therefore spreads the opposition defence. He's not that hot at tracking back, but we do have Neill.
Sorry mate, but for a player of his skill he shouldn't miss opportunities like he had today or take a dive in the box.

Can I Have My SSN Back?
Maybe just one or two digits? The Grouse wishes corporate ownership of our personal data wasn't so irreversible
I like to think I'm protective of my sensitive personal info. I rip bills and credit card offers into confetti before throwing them out, I never give out my Social Security number, and I can spot a phishing scheme with the best of them. But I've recently come to realize that the safeguarding of my most intimate personal details is completely out of my hands.
This rather foregone epiphany dawned on me recently after I received a letter in the mail from a former employer offering me a year of free credit protection. The gift of an incredibly generous HR department? No. This was my consolation prize for having my Social Security number and street address stolen when some thieves made off with company computers.
Being exposed to the threat of identity theft through the carelessness of a former employer got me thinking: Who else out there has the goods on me, and what say do I have in all of this? The answer, of course, is that my personal information is being collected, stored and used in more places than I care to think about. As for my rights to that info -- well, I have none.
This needs to change.
I don't think I'm blowing anyone's mind when I say that information about all of us is being gathered, aggregated, and analyzed with nearly every step we take, both online and off. I'm not paranoid -- this is a fact of life. Whether it's at the supermarket, passing through a tollbooth, using our cell phones, or checking our email, notes are being taken down about our locations, our habits, our preferences, and our relationships to people, places, and things. That's the price we pay for modern conveniences, and I've accepted the tradeoff. I could fly under the radar by always paying cash, never using a cell phone, staying off the Internet, and having my bills sent to a P.O. box, but I can't be bothered.
In many cases the information being gathered on me makes my life easier -- Amazon.com being the very best example of this. I love my Wish List, I find the recommendations to be fairly accurate (most of the time), and I like that little sidebar that reminds me of the things I've recently viewed.
But what happens when I no longer want Amazon to keep tabs on me? Or what if I want to have a peek at that internal profile with my name on it? I asked Amazon these questions and was pointed toward the site's privacy policy. Fair enough -- I think everyone should read the privacy policies of every site they visit, including this one. Most sites are very forthcoming about the information they gather on you and what they do with it. But Amazon's privacy policy still didn't answer my questions. What if, fearing another computer theft, I want my personal information erased from Amazon servers? Or what if Amazon is bought out by another company and I don't want my personal info going along for the ride? What if I don't even want to delete my info, but I just want to see it, and maybe remove a couple of embarrassing purchases? I haven't heard back from Amazon reps at the time of this writing, but I'm pretty sure the answer would be a politely worded, "Hell no."
I'm sure it's the same over at Google, where my extensive history of Web searches -- no matter how freaky -- is directly linked to my name and other information, thanks to my Gmail account. What if I decide one day that I'm done with Google -- can I take that information with me? Can I have my emails deleted from the Google system? Of course not.
Yep, Countrywide Mortgage just informed me that a now-former employee of theirs stoled my identity. They were nice enough to offer free credit monitoring for two years. Oh, and they offered me all sorts of great advice about how NOT to be a victim of identity theft. But they did overlook one important bit of advice- never deal with Countrywide Mortgage.
One failure that exists is to think that any SSN produced is automatically trustworthy.
It is like trusting that a person with a key has legal right to access without verifying the real identity of the person.
A SSN is just a key that can help when trying to verify a persons identity. It should never be used in itself as authentication.
This is where most businesses fails - thinking that a series of numbers and letter by themselves is good enough to verify a persons identity.
Excellent article! I agree on all points. We should have the right in this day and age to have our data removed upon request if we terminate a relationship with a business. I doubt this will ever happen though. Much like you, I choose to not worry about my private information being shared.
You articulated this point very well: "Whether it's at the supermarket, passing through a tollbooth, using our cell phones, or checking our email, notes are being taken down about our locations, our habits, our preferences, and our relationships to people, places, and things." (Quote by article author, Tom Conlon.)
Because they take the information without our consent or permission, use it in many humiliating and harmful ways to our continued detriment, I refer to this practice as "data rape". Fortunately, with credit freeze laws in place we can stop the pain as far as our credit reports are concerned, but nothing is stopping anyone else from aggregating data about us. Hopefully that will change soon.
While we all wish big companies could keep a handle on our information, we must remember that these companies are made up of regular people just like you and me. As identity theft becomes more of an issue, credit monitors will play an increasing role in assuring your personal information is kept safe. Regards, www.creditloan.com
the problem with the opt out form is you end up giving them info without knowing for certain they have any info you may just be giving them info or connecting fragments of info for them i have done this before with spam and only managed to double my spam man was i stupid back then

We were all taught at school (well some of us were) that the March Equinox was the first day of Spring, but to most of us the first days of Spring are surely the Easter Holiday. A great time of the year. Everything looking spruced up and ready to go, Spring flowers showing their colours and two bank holidays to make a worthwhile Easter weekend break.
Easter is a popular family holiday time at the Langstone Cliff Hotel. We present a full programme for your entertainment and offer something for each of the family.
Easter Holiday Friday 29th – Monday 1st April 2013
If we could choose, we should like Easter to be a fixed holiday, ideally the second weekend in April – but we can't and it isn't! Easter this year falls at the end of March and this too has positive advantages.
- It is twelve weeks since the last Bank Holiday – and now we have two! Good Friday and Easter Monday making a "natural" five day holiday – Thursday to Tuesday! Well, what would you say if you were a hotelier?
- Without the Bank Holiday to cheer it up March might be a little lack-lustre, socially perhaps?
- Late March is usually a colourful time of year, with Spring flowers in abundance and the shrubs, plants and trees just beginning to show their colours.
- Having the Bank Holiday at this time of year means that it is a desirable five weeks away from the May Day Bank Holiday – this also means that you can book for both without the neighbours saying "You are not going to the Langstone again, already, are you"!!?
We have tweaked our entertainment programme just a little and
hope that we can tempt you to join us for this ever popular holiday
Good Friday 29th March
- 7.00 – 9.00pm Dinner
- 9.00 – 11.30pm Dancing with Galaxy Disco
Easter Saturday 30th March
- 7.00 – 9.00pm Dinner
- 9.00 – 11.30pm Dance with Latino Jalapeno – Four piece band – This will be the first visit to the Langstone for this lively and colourful quartet – as their name suggests they specialise in the rhythm of South America but they assure us that they have a wide repertoire to suit whatever is required – now there's a promise!
Easter Sunday 31st March 2013
- 10.00am Easter Egg Hunt for all the children – Make sure you are not late – it doesn't last very long but generates
- enormous fun! By the fervour it creates you would think the eggs were Faberge not chocolate!
- 12.00 noon Lunchtime Jazz session in the Lounge
- 12.30 - 2.00pm Traditional Sunday Lunch
- 3.00pm Merlin provides fun and magic for the Children
- 7.00 for 7.30 Dinner. Please be on time for Dinner this evening as we present a Murder Mystery Evening. The scene is set, the plot (the word is used loosely) unravels itself, a crime is committed and well…by the time you get to coffee all is revealed. Very light hearted, very unintrusive, but fun. The Candlelight Theatre Company return by public demand, as they say.

I have noted in the past that as soon as Americans hear my accent, the one question they always ask is 'What brings you to New York City?' I never know how to answer that question and always shrug my shoulders or say something stupid like 'the food' or 'the weather.' It took me a while but the truth is I now know exactly what brought me to New York City. I'll still shrug my shoulders if you ask me though.
The old adage 'life is too short' has been bandied around for generations now but it is only in the last six or seven months that it has come to make any sense to me. It first hit like a subway train when I heard a man at a local bar I all too frequently attend stating that the people of Ireland were like 'birds with broken wings'. He went on to explain this pseudo-poetic statement by claiming that the Irish youth were restricted and bound by the economy and had nothing to do but wait it out. It was only the next morning that I thought about how utterly nonsensical this assertion was and began to cringe for the young man. That morning, that horrifically hung-over morning, a few memories began to come crashing back to me.
The first was of a girl I once knew from the west of Ireland. She was a remarkably beautiful and talented girl who did not let anything get in her way. She lived through the same recession as us and her wings were not only broken, but permanently clipped in the form of Cystic Fibrosis.
Despite this and with a smile across her face, she excelled at school and at college, became a writer and worked in a place she adored. She travelled to places she wanted to see, surrounded herself with an army of friends and garnered a boyfriend who loved her unconditionally. She lived, she laughed, she loved. And she died early... like she always knew she would. She was 23 to be exact. Her huge funeral and the countless stories her friends and family told about her painted a picture of a girl who did not let her situation define her. Realising her wings were clipped, she evolved to enjoy life on the ground and in doing so achieved more in 23 years than many others have in 70.
My second memory went even further back to my underage football days. I was 16 and a budding corner forward on my local team. My manager at the time, realizing how diminutive and physically weak our full forward line was, decided to utilize our pace and told me and the other corner forward to make countless diagonal runs throughout the game to wear out our opponents and put ourselves in the danger zone. After a relatively unsuccessful first half of running tirelessly, my teammate and I complained that we barely seen the ball and questioned his tactics. Now, this was the sort of manager who was terrifying when he raised his voice but was even scarier when he looked you dead in the eye and spoke quieter than normal. He did the latter on this day as he stared us down and called us lazy. He stated that he knew that these runs may yield no results the first 5 or 10 times. 'Indeed', he said, 'you may need to make this run 15 times but if you get a goal out of it, wouldn't the other 14 runs have been worth it'?
Being inherently lazy and impossibly petulant at the time, I ignored this advice and so was surprised that I remembered it so vividly 7 years later. It began to make sense to me and I instantly compared it to the self involved, illogical comment from the drunken man the night before. The notion that we were 'birds with broken wings restricted by our economy' seemed absurd to me now.
Before you begin to think that I am being slanderous and malicious towards this man, I should drop the bomb that the statement came from me. I'm ashamed to admit that this was my train of thought for a while. The world was against us. Wrong place, wrong time. We all have to work in shitholes to get a pittance of a wage.
I now realise that this is not true. Life is too short to 'wait it out'. Even if we are birds with broken wings, broken bones heal and come back stronger. Remembering the girl from the west and my old manager's advice, I now realise that life is there to be lived no matter what the situation. If we can't fly, we learn how to run and even if it takes 15 runs, we keep going until we get what we want. This is what I am doing in New York City.
I am finally making the first run.
Schrivner: There was a club for higher enlisted men close to the brig - for the rank of e-7 and above, if I remember corerectly, but I was a mere corporal(E-4), besides I was a strict teetolar. The Brig Counselor was Chief Boldt (E-7) who was the reigning handball champion (Irish version) of the base. Many of the sailors and marines stationed at Subic Bay knew a few words and phrases of Tagalog, the native language of the region. The nearby town of Olangpo was staffed by Columban Fathers, most of them from Ireland. When the natives heard me use Tagalog expressions, they would say: "para ung padre" (like the priest).
Seanmor, after services, did you take them back via the Super Club after a couple of San Miguels?
Good for you Seanmor!
Well said Seanmor
The first paragraph of the above article reminds me of an experience I had at Subic Bay naval base in the Philippines in my younger days. As a marine NCO I used to volunteer to take some prisoners from the base brig to Protestasnt servises 2 or 3 Sundays a month and I soon got to know the Protestant chaplain as well as I knew the Catholic one. One Sunday the Protestant clergyman had a new asistant who asked me from what part of Ireland I came (which was his way of trying to find out the denominastion I belonged to). When I told him the Midlands, he asked, "the Northern Midlands or the Southern Midlands?". Not to be pinned down I replied, "the Central Midlands", which left him very confused. My homeland always was and always will be the whole Irish nation and all its parts.
