Aww Doc, I just say things like that to get under David W.'s skin Honestly though, I really think the reason some people (I include myself) don't watch college, even though they're football fans, is the lack of a play-off system. I guess all you college fans understand the BCS thing, but I sure don't. Seems playoff's would be fairer, not to mention enormously profitable. And let's face it, college ball (like the pro's) is about nothing but money. So what's the objection from those in power, or from the fans? |

I love college football, but don't have a clue about the BCS. There's a good story in this week's Sports Illustrated about the need for a Division I playoff system (there are playoffs in each of the other NCAA divisions) that essentially points to the Rose Bowl people as the primary reason for blocking the prospect of a playoff system. Seems there's too much tradition (not to mention money) involved for those folks to change. The best line in the story came from playoff proponents who said they can't believe that the possibility are having a playoff system is being held hostage by the Rose Bowl Parade. There's also a good story on Brett Farve in this issue, SI's sportsman of the year. I've always been a Farve fan, but this story confirms why. His work with the Make-A-Wish Foundation, among other things, is compelling. |

I have spoken with Big 10 fans who said that they would rather see their team in the Rose Bowl than the BCS Championship game. To me that is like saying you would rather see your favorite baseball team in the Hall of Fame game in Cooperstown than the World Series. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/20thMass Last edited on Sat Dec 8th, 2007 05:10 pm by 20th_Mass |

So Javal, see what happens when you crawl around under my skin, I crash your whole site. You going to mess with me anymore? The fans don't oppose a playoff; it's the Bowls and College Presidents who oppose it. I think they will come around in 2015 when the Rose Bowl's contract ends. This season alone shows the BCS doesn't really work when there is no dominating team. But does a playoff really work either? The hot hand usually wins in a playoff not necessarily the team whose whole body of work for a season is most impressive. Look at how many wild card teams win it all in pro baseball and football. |

Father Juan Carlos, 43
A Franciscan monk confesses about hearing confession.
Madison Street between Clark and LaSalle Streets
Ever been mistaken for a Jedi? People ask, yes. One person asked, "Are you real?" I said, "Pinch me."
The big man's birthday is coming. Is the commercialization of Christmas a bummer? Yeah, the commercial interests don't care about the real Christmas. Yesterday was the start of Advent. That's when we should've done the light parade.
How long have you been a monk? I was 20 when I entered the Order of Franciscan Friars Minor. I saw a need for people to reconcile first with God and then with one another. At St. Peter's, we hear confessions Monday through Friday, 7:30 in the morning to 6pm.
St. Peter's is near City Hall. Do politicians end up in the confessional? A lot! Yes. Many lawyers, too.
How do you decompress? I bring my guitar and I play religious songs while I preach.
Do you enjoy secular music: Judas Priest, Black Sabbath? I really like Adele. I was coming back from a trip and felt a loneliness. I heard one of her songs and it applied to my relationship with God. It hit me hard—her voice is so powerful!—and I just started crying.
Hearing confessions has to be draining. There is so much negativity I hear, sometimes I need to go walk and get distracted. Otherwise I'd go crazy. I have to remember that once a person leaves the confessional, their sins go with God, not with me. I don't want them!

Links on Images in the CakePHP Framework
Introduction: I have seen a fair number of posts on the cakePHP google group and also on a few blogs regarding how to make links in views that are images using the cakePHP helpers. There are ways to fudge this and hard code paths to images and links but when you start swapping between /pages and /controllers this all gets very messy and is not using what cakePHP provides so I thought I would write a quick tutorial on this. Actually it's more like a few notes with an example - this is a real easy task, and quite obvious once you consider what we are doing.
Assumptions: I'm assuming your using cakePHP 1.2 here if your not, go get it If you can't upgrade then just read this example code below then check the 1.1 manual for 'image' and 'link' and you should be able to work it.
Step 1: Displaying an Image on a View or Layout
O.K as you may or may not know, to display and image on a layout or view in correct the correct cake manor just ...
echo $html->image('home.gif');
Obviously above, change 'home.gif' to your image.
Step 2: Making a HREF Link on a View or Layout
Another one you may already know...
echo $html->link("Home", array('action' => 'features'), array('escape' => false));
And again, change 'Home' to your link text and 'features' to your action in your controller. The above example will link the text 'Home' to the 'features' action of the currently active controller. If you have this on a view in the /pages cake directory it will link to /pages/features. This is no good if you wan't to link to another controller, however this is easy too ...
echo $html->link("Products", array('controller'=>'products', 'action' => 'features'));
Above we are also specifying the controller name. The above example will link the text 'Products' to the controller 'products' and the action 'features'. ie /products/features.
Step 3: Coming image and link for a linked image
O.K the bit of code you came to this page for ...
echo $html->link($html->image("products.gif"), array('controller'=>'products', 'action' => 'features'), array('escape' => false));
As you can see, from a PHP point of view it is as simple as including a function within another function. So here, the image 'products.gif' links to the 'products' controller and the 'features' action of that controller. You may also noticed we have added escape = false. If you do not specify this as fasle, or you specify it as true then the raw html for the image will be out printed to the view as the link instead of the actual image.
That's everything you need for now to get you linking images within CakePHP views. For more information regarding CakePHP and more tutorials please visit CakePHP.co.uk

2007 looks like the year of the gyro for me
Right after the holidays, it appears that I'll be taking the first step (yes, FINALLY) toward being a gyro kinda guy. I'm going to get a Sport Pilot add-on to my current Private fixed wing license. It turns out that I can do this all locally in an RAF. While this won't be the most appropriate model (since I don't plan to build anything like that), it's mighty convenient, and I'll get the basic training and rating out of the way. Way back when I originally wanted to do the gyro thing, it was common to be able to fly experimental gyros with a fixed wing license. Next, a few years ago, they made it more difficult to carry a passenger by adding a rule about requiring an instructors endorsement. Now, the latest operating restrictions that are being issued by my DAR have a requirement that states: "The pilot in command of this aircraft must hold an appropriate category / class rating." That means I can't fly any experimental gyro that I build unless I have the appropriate rating. This isn't necessarily bad news, since having the rating "should" open up the possibility of buying (overpriced) liability insurance (my hanger lease requires it). I was told before that the insurance companies wouldn't write a policy without a gyro rating. It also clears me to eventually get a two place, and more importantly, will let me fly gyros without a medical under sport pilot rules. By the time the rating is done, I should have the single rotor engine on a test stand, and will hopefully have a redrive for it. That's the biggest hold-up right now. Once I determine that the engine and as-yet-to-be-found redrive works out, then I'll go for the actual gyro. The only two options I see at the moment are the Dominator (90% chance), and the Little Wing (10% chance because I don't feel like welding it all up). Now, if anyone made it this far, your mission is to HOLD ME TO THIS Cheers, Rusty |
That sounds like a plan to me. May I make a suggestion. See if you can get a check ride. Since most gyro instructors want to solo you in your own gyro then get the training and work on your gyro as you are getting the training. That way your training and the solo will be about the same time as you finish you gyro. Good Luck
Thom I think I am addicted to gyros. I fly a RAF N5127C Sonerai IILT N 42HL AOPA member PRA Chapter 6 Last edited by dragonflyerthom; 12-22-2006 at 04:53 AM. |
Hi Rusty
Are you going to try to use the single rotor rotary on your gyro and is it going to be a single place? Just started to replace the lower longerons on my tractor fuselage yesterday and it looks like it is going to work out fine. Maybe in a couple of months will be ready to make a choice of engine so I can start on the engine mounts. Tony |
Hi Tony,
Yes, the plan is still to use the single rotor, and I've got a message into Neil about buying an Autoflight drive for it. Hopefully, he's still got a rotary adapter plate laying around, or can make me one. Assuming the engine testing goes OK on a stand (and I'm sure it will), I'll be looking for something to put it on. More than likely, it will be single place, but since I'll be getting a sport pilot add-on, it could be two place I suppose. BTW, refresh my memory- what tractor design are you building? Cheers, Rusty Last edited by 13brv3; 12-24-2006 at 06:54 PM. |
Am using the fuselage of a "Texas Parasol " fixed wing. Bought one several months back to modify but when I got a closer look at it I decided that I wouldn't even taxi it let alone fly it because of the workmanship, so have totally rebuilt it and all that is now original is the upper and lower longerons and they will be replace in the near future, it is made from riveted aluminum angle. Shortened the fuselage 6 inches and am making the gear {was aluminum tubing) out of 4130 and making wider to about 60/66 inches and adding twin tail. If I can't find a rotary that I can live with, will revert to the old standby of the EA-81 with a Autoflight redrive. Tony |
Hi Tony,
So, you took the "easy" way out by buying an existing fuselage Sorry to hear about all the rework, but I guess I'm not really surprised. Every single used project I've ever purchased has ended up needing lots of re-work, and I've pretty much sworn off buying anything like that again. I'm still quite interested in a tractor gyro, but haven't commited the time to building a Little Wing yet. Cheers, Rusty |
Hi Thom,
Sorry I missed your comments earlier. I'm sure you're correct about the ideal way to do this, but I'm looking at it as two separate steps. One will be to get the sport pilot add-on, which teaches me the general skills I need, and gets the legal regulations out of the way. Later, when I've finished a gyro, I'll seek out refresher training that's specific to whatever type gyro I end up with. That's the plan anyway. Cheers, Rusty |

Should the Violence Against Women Act Be Reauthorized? >
Max Baucus: Work is Not Done to Combat Domestic Violence
This reauthorization strengthens the ability of states, law enforcement, and service providers to combat violence
March 19, 2012
Eighteen years ago, Congress took an important step to addressing the rise in domestic violence and sexual assault in this country. I was proud to help lead the effort to pass the Violence Against Women Act in 1994, and I am proud to add my name to the bipartisan bill to continue the program this year. The law is the backbone to provide highly-effective programs that have helped us gain ground in putting an end to domestic and sexual violence. This year's reauthorization legislation will continue to move us forward by strengthening the ability of states, law enforcement, and service providers to combat domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking.
Since we passed this historic legislation, the rate of nonfatal intimate partner violence against women has decreased by 53 percent. And the number of individuals killed by an intimate partner has decreased by 34 percent for women and 57 percent for men.
Still, our work is not done. In my home state of Montana, 98 people died from domestic violence between 2000 and 2010. These are not simply statistics, they are our mothers, sisters, daughters, and friends.
Just last week in the Billings Gazette, Maria Martin shared her courageous story of survival and her inspiring work to turn her experience into a source of strength for others. Following her abuse, Maria earned her master's degree in rehabilitation and mental health counseling and became active in the Billings Area Family Violence Task Force, the Montana State Coalition of Domestic and Sexual Violence, Carbon County Domestic and Sexual Violence Services, and many similar organizations supported by Violence Against Women Act.
[Read: Dems Put GOP in Political Box Over Women's Issues]
This year's reauthorization strengthens the legislation by specifically addressing the crisis of violence against women in tribal communities, who face extremely high rates of domestic violence and sexual assault. It fixes the patchwork of criminal jurisdiction over those who assault Indian spouses and dating partners in Indian Country, toughens up assault statues, improves grant programs, and clarifies jurisdiction for civil protection orders.
The bill also consolidates 13 existing programs into four. This helps reduce administrative costs and adds efficiency in getting resources to law enforcement, prosecutors, and victim service providers.
Survivors and advocates, like Maria, who work each and every day to put a stop to domestic and sexual violence tell us just how critical reauthorizing this law is. Congress reaffirmed its commitment to the Violence Against Women Act in 2000 and 2005, passing the measures unanimously in the United States Senate. Booting efforts to turn victims into survivors and holding perpetrators accountable by reauthorizing the Violence Against Women Act is something we can all agree on again this year.

— @StephClarkEcho 25 August 2013
Hartlepool U 0 Fleetwood T 1
From the off, Pools were bright and lively - but it came to nothing as they lost to a familiar outcome.
Southampton 1 Sunderland 1
Newcastle 0 West Ham United 0
All square in the end on a very wet afternoon at St James' Park.
Both teams had a chance to win it in the end.
The best fell to Yoan Gouffran but he somehow missed the target when Sammy Ameobi's cross hit the post and fell to him yards out.
Farsley 4 (O'Brien, Savory 3), Darlington 2 (A Johnson, Thompson)
Two penalties changed the game. Farsley scored theirs to go 1-0 up and alter the dynamic of the game, Darlington missed theirs at 4-2 down with ten minutes to go when they looked like mounting a comeback.
That said, it was poor defensive work that cost Quakers.
They try again on Monday against Kendal.
Southampton 1 (Fonte 88)
Sunderland 1
Sickener for Sunderland, Jose Fonte heads home to seemingly give Southampton a point.
Farsley 4 Darlington 2
Four minutes injury time to be played. The scourge of Darlington, Aidan Savory, has just been replaced and Leon Scott breathes a sigh of relief.
Farsley 4 Darlington 2
Darlington piling forward and winning corners. Imagine were they only one goal behind at this stage...
Southampton 0
Sunderland 1
Connor Wickham comes on for Giaccherini, who slots in alongside Altidore up top, while Ji goes wide right. Meanwhile, Osvaldo is booked for a foul on Diakite, tripping the centre-half who had sent a header back to his own keeper. Six minutes on the clock, Sunderland - at this stage - in front.
Hartlepool 0 Fleetwood 1
Ten to go - Howard goes closest for Pools with a header across goal, well saved, from a fine Baldwin cross.
Fleetwood hit a post on the break and still defending in numbers when they have to.
Farsley 4 Darlington 2
Penalty to Darlington MISSED by Stephen Thompson. Blasted well wide. Awful. Matty Young had grappled with Andy Johnson.
Shola has just got stick from Ben Arfa and some Newcastle fans for kicking the ball out after his head collided with Reid. The West Ham defender was on the floor waiting for treatment, his stare to the fans knocking him said it all.
Thirteen minutes left and Newcastle on top but yet to seriously test Jaaskelainen.
Farsley 4 Darlington 2
Arrgghh! Darlington thought they'd pulled one back, but David Dowson's 'goal' was ruled offside. Plenty of time yet.
Farsley 4 Darlington 2
Ten minutes to go and Darlington are making a go of it. Chris Moore shot was beaten away for a corner by Tom Morgan and the winger also blasted the ball across goal, but Andy Johnson couldn't turn home.
Southampton 0
Sunderland 1
Sunderland still lead. They're weathering the storm at present, have spent long spells in the second half out of possession. But the workrate is admirable.
Farsley 4 Darlington 2
Darlington pull one back again, Stephen Thompson this time. He tucked the ball home with a low drive after receiving Andy Johnson's pull-back from the byline.
Hartlepool 0 Fleetwood 1
Same story really - Pools pressing for leveller, lively in parts, Fleetwood standing up to it defensively and are a worry on the break
Downing makes way for Joe Cole just after the hour. The rain falling heavily now. Game entering crucial stage, with West Ham clearly thinking they can nick a goal.
Southampton 0
Sunderland 1
The ball is fizzing about like a pinball at the moment. Altidore denied by Boruc after Rodriguez headed into Westwood's hands. The Irish keeper also had to produce a pearler of a save from Lambert. End to end and exciting stuff. 27 minutes to play.
Farsley 4 Darlington 1
Dear me. Darlington sliced open so easily there. Aidan Savory's through-pass was latched on to by Matty Young who was one-on-one, but his shot was saved by Quakers keeper Mark Bell.
Kevin Nolan headed over from the near post when he was stood unmarked to meet Downing's dangerous cross. That was an ideal chance to find the breakthrough for West Ham. 0-0
Farsley 4 Darlington 1
Thompson hit a shot high over the bar following a neat turn on the corner of the penalty area after Andy Johnson's ball back from the byline. Darlington enjoying a better spell now.
Jonny Davis has now been replaced by Paul Robinson.
Newcastle have started the second half much stronger. Still a lack of real threat on the West Ham goal though and the Hammers are still getting forward enough to worry.
Southampton 0
Sunderland 1
David Vaughan is on for Jack Colback, meanwhile Southampton went close with an Adam Lallana volley that whistled just wide.
Southampton continuing all of their pressure from the first half but Sunderland's defence is holding firm.
Farsley 4 Darlington 1
Hat-trick for Aidan Savory. Darlington unable to deal with a throw-in. A bloody throw-in! Savory collected the ball and turned past a defender before unleashing a powerful shot into the corner.
Darlington woeful at the back today and no better going forward where Plan A, B and C is to lump it forward.
Farsley 3 Darlington 1
Andy Johnson got to the byline, but shot at goal from a narrow angle instead of shooting to the better-positioned David Dowson or Chris Moore.
Farsley 3 Darlington 1
Nine minutes into the second half and Darlington make a double change: Craig Gott and David Dowson on for Terry Galbraith and Amar Purewal.
RT @Coral: A warm welcome back to St James' Park for Joe Kinnear... (Via @NUFCFans). http://t.co/4zCNtjIGgo

Southampton 0
Sunderland 1
We're back under way here at St Mary's, and there have been three changes. For the hosts, Daniel Osvaldo and Nathaniel Clyne are on, while Ji Dong Won has come on for Sunderland, Sessegnon is the man to make way.
Farsley 3 Darlington 1
Mark Bell has to make a save to stop a volley by Marc Thompson after the keeper's punch fell to Farsley's No. 11. Clearly not the start to the second half Darlington were after.
Hartlepool 0 Fleetwood 1
After a lively start, Pools fall behind to a familiar scoreline.
With 5 new Cooper signings in his side, there was a bright nature to their start, Howard had a header knocked off the line, Dolan twice went close from distance.
But they conceded when a low shot was pushed into the path of Jeff Hughes who turned in from close range.
From then on, Pools were chasing the game - key to the second half is to keep the tempo and believe in what they are doing.
Newcastle 0 West Ham 0
The scoreline says it all really. A game of few chances and West Ham, if any, should be ahead.
Southampton 0
Sunderland 1
Decent half for Sunderland, Giaccherini's first goal in Sunderland colours preceding a spell of pressure from the Saints but the Black Cats, so far, have been more than equal to it.
Farsley 3 Darlington 1
Song on the PA is Celebration by Kool & The Gang – bit presumptuous isn't it, it's only half-time fellas...
Farsley 3 Darlington 1
Defensive horror show for the most part (when's Gary Brown back?). Johnson goal on 44mins gives DFC hope.
44mins. Joey O'Brien trips Ben Arfa and enters the book, basically because the Frenchman had too much for him.

Farsley 3 Darlington 1
Darlington pull one back via that man Andy Johnson. After a Chris Moore cross, Stephen Thompson turned a defender inside out and blasted into the six yard box where Johnson turned home.
Nine minutes before half-time and and a banner mocking Joe Kinnear is unfurled at the same time as Gallowgate sing 'where's the signings Joe Kinnear.
Newcastle need to take the lead here or things could get worse in the stands.
Downing's back post header dropped wide when he could have scored to give West Ham the lead.
Southampton 0
Sunderland 1
Sunderland looking compact and solid. Larsson and Gardner in centre-mid is reaping rewards thus far, they're not giving the Saints a sniff.
Farsley 3 Darlington 0
Farsley keeper Tom Morgan has just touched the ball for the first time in ages, though only because Stephen Thompson's pass was wayward. Darlington a pale imitation of the team that won on Tuesday.

Farsley 3 Darlington 0
It was that man Aidan Savory again after Darlington failed to clear the danger from their penalty area. The attack came about when Leon Scott handled the ball and from the free-kick Farsley Paddy Miller hit the crossbar, Quakers could not clear and Savory pounced to ram home from close-range. When's Gary Brown back from injury?
Seconds after Pardew instructs Shola to take more time and care with the ball, West Ham's free-kick from deep inside their own half missed everyone and had to be stopped from hitting the net by Krul.
Farsley 3 Darlington 0
3-0 after 35 minutes. Hells bells.
Newcastle's efforts have all so far amounted to wayward long range strikes from Ben Arfa. West Ham have had the best two opportunities but have not tested Tim Krul.
Farsley 2 Darlington 0
Darlington 2-0 down. This hasn't happened for a long time. Leon Scott misses his kick and allowed in dangerous striker Aidan Savory to shoot confidently beyond Mark Bell.
Darlington had a good first ten minutes, but faded dramatically after the penalty.
Farsley 1 Darlington 0
Another Mark Bell save to deny Aidan Savory after the striker received a neat pass from Matty James. Darlington struggling now, have replaced the short passes they began the game with by making long punts.
Southampton 0
Sunderland 1
Is there life after Simon Mignolet? Just might be - Keiren Westwood's made a storming full-stretch save from Ricky Lambert's header. Quality stuff.
Farsley 1 Darlington 0
Excellent fingertip save by Mark Bell keeps it at 1-0. Faraley's Aidan Savory tried his luck with an audacious volley after a throw-in. After the electric start by Darlington, Farlsey are very much back in it. 21mins gone.
Best chance of the half so far. Demel cross was perfect for Maiga. His free header was glanced wide from eight yards. Newcastle survive and it is 0-0 with 18mins gone.
Hartlepool 0 Fleetwood 1
And sure enough, Pools go one down. Long-distance shot from Sarcevic was spilled by Flinders and Hughes knocked in on the line.
Very harsh on Pools after a belting start.
Farsley 1 Darlington 0
That takes some doing. Farley's James Riley has just punted the ball so high over the bar that is sailed over the netting erected to prevent the ball leaving the ground. Well played, sir. #hoof
Farsley 1 Darlington 0
Darlington back on the offensive and should be level, Stephen Thompson scuffed wide from eight yards, under pressure from a defender, after a Chris Moore cross.
Hartlepool 0 Fleetwood 0
Ten mins in and this is positive from Pools. Cooper's selection and formation looking spot on.
Howard and Dolan (twice) had efforts, Howard's header cleared off the line and Dolan firing in from distance.
Five of Cooper's new faces in the side and it's been positive.
Farsley 1 Darlington 0
Goal for Farsley by Rob O'Brien from the penalty spot after Aidan Savory was tripped by Leon Scott.
Southampton 0
Sunderland 1
Leaping lizards! That was close. Rodriguez slotted past Westwood but the Saints forward was called offside. Replays show his head and shoulders were possibly offside but I would have called it level. Pleasingly, he was allowed to celebrate for a good 30 seconds before realising the linesman was stood there, flag aloft.
Horrendous free-kick from Ben Arfa completely missed the target from 25 yards. Sissoko had done well to earn that as well.
Newcastle need to make opportunities like that count.
Farsley 0 Darlington 0
Thompson on a mission here. At the centre of everything dangerous Darlington do. After beating a full-back he flashed a ball across goal but there was no team-mate on hand to take advantage and he then blasted a fierce drive at goal that Tom Morgan saved with his feet. And now Amar Purewal has had a shot deflected wide.
Strong start by Quakers
Ameobi has been asked to partner Cisse in attack. Something like that was needed because Cisse has been unable to lead the line on his own.
Ideally, though, Pardew would have preferred to be using Darren Bent, Bafetimbi Gomis or Loic Remy in that role today.
Southampton 0
Sunderland 1 (Giaccherini 3)
Sunderland go 1-0 up with their first attack. Emanuele Giaccherini scores his first goal for the Black Cats with an unmarked header at the far post from Seb Larsson's corner. Awful marking from the Saints. After Sessegnon, he's the shortest player on the pitch.
Southampton 0-0 Sunderland
Southampton v Sunderland
Teams are out. Southampton wearing all red, Sunderland wearing their new yellow away outfit. It's Southampton's first home match of the season but they're building it up like it's the chuffing Champions League final. At this point, I'd be hammering the start button if I was playing Fifa 13. But I'm not. I'm at St Mary's willing the noise, the incessant noise, to stop, and for a game of football, for God's sake, a game of football, to break out. THAT'S WHY WE'RE ALL HERE.
#Darlington are out and resplendent in their new pink away kit. @Farsleyafc http://t.co/Uh5BAPeSG6

Hartlepool v Fleetwood
Changes for Pools today in players and formation.
Cooper gives instant debuts to Michael Duckworth and Matty Dolan, with Darren Holden and Andy Monkhouse on the bench.
Duckworth is at right back, Neil Austin at left back, with Dolan alongside Simon Walton and Bradley Walker in a three-man midfield.
Hartlepool: Flinders; Duckworth, Baldwin, Burgess, Austin; Walker, Dolan, Walton; Poole, Howard, Compton. Subs: Rafferty (gk), Collins, Franks, Monkhouse, Holden, Rodney, James.
Fleetwood: Davies; Murdoch, Roberts, Pond, Evans, Hughes, Brown, Hogan, Sarcevic, Ball, Jordan. Subs: Howell, Parkin, Matt, McLaughlin, Blair, Crowther, Lucas (gk),
Referee: Steve Rushton (Stoke)
Farsley v Darlington
Farsley: Morgan, Lloyd, Serrant, O'Brien, Riley, Miller, James, Young, Ellington, Savory, Thompson. Subs: Higginson (gk), Hull, Bambrook, Grant, Etherington
Darlington: Bell; Hunter, J Robinson, Scott, Welden; Moore, Davis, Galbraith, Thompson; A Johnson, Purewal. Subs: Turns (gk), Gott, P Robinson, K Hedley, Dowson
Referee: Paul Vardy
Farsley v Darlington
Darlington have unsurprisingly named an unchanged team for today's game at Farsley as they bid to make it three wins from three.
On Tuesday they won 3-0 at Bamber Bridge and played impressively, combining pace and a high work-rate to control proceedings.
Andy Johnson scored twice having replaced David Dowson in the starting line-up, and Dowson returns to the bench today having not featured on Tuesday due to a slight niggle.
Farsley have won one and lost one of their first two games and are looking to improve on last year's 14th place finish.
Southampton v Sunderland
Bit of an update on a story that broke on Twitter this morning concerning an alleged 'fracas' - always a fracas, or a 'bust-up', isn't it? - between Sunderland's players and guests at the hotel they stayed at last night.
This, from our 'sister' paper in Southampton:
But a club spokesman denied the team were involved in any incident. She said: "I have no knowledge of anything like that. I'm sure the players would have been tucked up in bed." Police would not confirm if anyone from the club was involved. Inspector Scott Johnson said: "We did attend after a report of an assault at the hotel where the Sunderland football team was staying. "No arrests were made at the scene but 15 people were involved and officers are continuing to make enquiries. "We arrived at 12.15 and found no one was fighting. There were two groups of people. A number were spoken to."
Southampton Daily Echo
30 mins from kick off and it's like we have been invaded by @Official_Darlo fans.
— @Farsleyafc 24 August 2013
With no Cheik Tiote, Yohan Cabaye, Steven Taylor or Jonas Gutierrez, the Newcastle bench is looking really inexperienced today. No wonder Alan Pardew wants new faces.
Farsley v Darlington
Hearing that Darlington are to name the same side that won on Tuesday at Bamber Bridge. Would be no surprise given the 3-0 scoreline and how well they played.
Newcastle have gone for two strikers here at St James' Park today. An interesting choice from Alan Pardew, who clearly thinks it's time for a change up top.
The Magpies need a positive start at home against a West Ham side who have included Stewart Downing for his first start since a £5m switch from Liverpool.
Newcastle (4-4-2): Krul; Debuchy, Coloccini, Yanga-Mbiwa, Santon; Ben Arfa, Anita, Sissoko, Marveaux; Cisse, Shola Ameobi. Subs: Elliot (gk), Bigirimana, Dummett, Gosling, Gouffran, Vuckic, Sammy Ameobi.
West Ham (4-5-1): Jaaskelainen; Demel, O'Brien, Collins, Reid; Noble, Diame; Downing, Nolan, Jarvis; Maiga. Subs : Adrian, Rat, Tomkins, Diarra, Morrison, Cole, Vaz Te.
Southampton v Sunderland
Here's the Southampton team, #saintsfc fans.
Southampton (4-2-3-1): Boruc; Chambers, Fonte, Lovren, Shaw; Wanyama, Schneiderlin; Ward-Prowse, Lallana (c), Rodriguez; Lambert. Subs: Davis, Clyne, Davis, Ramirez, Cork, Osvaldo, Hooiveld.
Southampton v Sunderland
Southampton, or, as they like to be called #saintsfc, are unchanged from the team that beat West Brom 1-0 last weekend.
Seeing a bit of slight opposition to the decision for Sunderland to leave out Cabral on Twitter. Just a bit.
Surprised no cabral. Thought he looked good last week. Think Gardner right back, celestuka left and colback in the middle. #safc
— @samsonplace 24 August 2013
don't know what di canio is palying at dropping cabral who was our best player by a country mile last week! prove me wrong #hawaythelads

Surprised with Gardner back in starting XI, thought Cabral was impressive last week #SAFC
— @Discopants09 24 August 2013
Already disappointed at St Mary's to see Cabral on the bench. Larsson and Gardener in the middle doesn't feel very revolutionary #safc

Cabral and Gardner would have been better IMO

Southampton v Sunderland
Good afternoon football fans, we're LIVE from Southampton for Sunderland's trip to St Mary's.
Big team news is Cabral and Valentin Roberge have been dropped in favour of Craig Gardner and debutant Modibo Diakite. Both slight surprises if I'm being honest, but Gardner was available after suspension.
For Southampton, Daniel Osvaldo, the £15million man is on the bench.
SUNDERLAND (4-4-1-1): Westwood; Celutska, Diakite, O'Shea, Colback; Johnson, Larsson, Gardner, Giaccherini; Sessegnon; Altidore. Substitutes: Mannone Cabral Wickham Vaughan Moberg Karlsson Ji Roberge
Wigan Athletic v Middlesbrough (Kick-off: Sunday, August 25, 3pm)
Crainey Perch Bennett Boyce
McCann McCarthy Watson
McLean Holt Maloney
Carayol Adomah
Leadbitter Whitehead Varga
Richardson Woodgate Williams Friend
Wigan are without Callum McManaman as he serves second of three match ban.
Subs: Nichollas (gk), Gomez, McArthur, Espinoza, Defor, Beausejour, Fortune
Boro's Steele remains a doubt with an ankle knock, so new signing former Hartlepool keeper Dimi Konstantopoulos comes into contention.
Subs: Leutwiler(gk) Gibson, Parnaby, Smallwood, Ledesma, Emnes, Main.
Referee: David Coote (Newark)
Odds: H:4/5 A:16/5 D: 11/4
It's a fact: Boro have made five visits to the DW Stadium, the first coming on route to League Cup glory in 2004. In those five trips, Boro have lost just the one a 1-0 defeat on 15 August 2007 drawn one and won three.
Comment by DANIEL PEARSON: Both teams will be needing the three points this weekend but in reality both are evenly matched, can see a score draw. 1-1
Hartlepool United v Fleetwood Town (Kick-off 3pm)
Austin Burgess Baldwin Holden
Walker Dolan
Monkhouse Poole Compton
Crowther Ball Brown
Sarveic Schumacher Hughes
Jordan Creswell Roberts Hogan
New signings Matty Dolan and Michael Duckworth are in the squad, with the former likely to start in midfield with Simon Walton's place under threat. Duckworth should be on the bench.
Subs: Rafferty (gk), Collins, Franks, Walton, Richards, James, Duckworth
Jon Parkin could be involved for the first time this season for the visitors.
Subs: Lucas (gk), Howell, Murdoch, Pond, Evans, Matt, Parkin.
It's a fact: The teams have only met once before - when Michael Mackay and Joel Porter earned a 3-2 FA Cup win in 2008 for Pools.
Referee: Steve Rushton (Stoke)
Odds: H23/10; D12/5; A13/10
Comment by NICK LOUGHLIN: Four games in and Pools are due an upturn in fortunes in front of goal - 2-0.
Newcastle v West Ham (Kick-off 3pm)
Debuchy Mbwia Coloccini Santon
Tiote Anita
Ben Arfa Sissoko Gouffran
Cole Nolan Jarvis
Diame Noble
O'Brien Collins Reid Demel
Newcastle are without Steven Taylor as he starts his three match suspension, Jonas Gutierez is out with an injury he sustained on Monday whilst Yohan Cabaye's future remains up in the air.
Subs: Elliot (gk), Dummett, Haidara, Bigirimina, Obertan Marveaux, Sammy Ameobi, Shola Ameobi
West Ham are without former Newcastle striker Andy Carroll so the Hammers are likely to keep same team that beat Cardiff last weekend.
Subs: Adrian (gk), Tomkins, Rat, Morrison, Vaz Ta, Downing, Diarra
Referee: Phil Dowd (Stoke-on-Trent)
Odds: H: 11/10 A: 12/5 D: 12/5
It's a fact: Newcastle haven't scored or won at home in the league since April 7th when they beat Fulham 1-0.
Comment by DANIEL PEARSON: Newcastle need to bounce back from Monday and in front of the Geordie faithful the team need to put on a performance. West Ham will be a tough challenge for most Premier League sides. 1-1

Want to experience driving on the track, but not ready for a full weekend? We have the answer for you: our new 1-Day Taste of the Track program. On Friday, October 12, we will be offering a single day driving school for members looking to test the waters with High Performance driving.
Your experience will include 3 classroom sessions and three 20-minute sessions on track in a lead-follow arrangement. The pace will be a bit slower than what our 2-day students experience. Nonetheless, you'll experience driving your Audi in ways that aren't (legally) possible on the street. This program is open to any club member driving any vehicle (no convertibles or SUVs, though), with any experience level. BUT, only 6 spots are available so act fast to secure your spot. The cost for the day is $150, plus helmet rental ($20) and lunch ($10), if desired.

To the host:
As a young person, it is hard to find role models and peers who enjoy working hard... doing good work. In trying to be an aware, fit, and wholesome individual, it seems I only identify with old people. What do you suggest?
Jenna Lyons
You're so right, that the pleasure of work is crucial to a healthy life, but surely you know classmates who love their schoolwork, whether its math or history or writing or music, and that's where it all begins. In any school, there are the comedians and the hipsters, the joiners, the fluffheads, who make a point of sloughing off work, who take their identity from not doing well, and then there are us nerds who dig down into the material and want to do well, not to win approval but because the work makes them feel whole. Marge Piercy wrote a poem, "To Be Of Use," in which she said:
I love people who harness themselves, an ox to a heavy cart,
who pull like water buffalo, with massive patience,
who strain in the mud and the muck to move things forward,
who do what has to be done, again and again.
You can learn a lot from old people but the hard work needs to be done by your generation, Jenna, and I wish you well. Find some strivers your age and talk about the work you want to do in your life and look for people engaged in that work and see if they'll take you on. Be wary of fields in which there is rigid hierarchy, look for fields in which people of many different competencies are accepted as equals, in which everyone pulls together. And good luck.
My granddaughter is a freshman in college. What advice does a grandmother who has made more mistakes than you can name give to her? She's bright, talented, her own person and so excited. Perhaps she needs to go where she's never been without advice from me. What do you think?
Take care of yourself.
Pat Hall
Green Bay
What would be good for your granddaughter is an older, wiser, familiar soul (you) to whom she can speak freely and tell the truth and know that you respect her independence. A benevolent listener who will offer advice if asked but who will not pry and will not tattle, except in extreme circumstances. So make plans to drive to her town and take her out to dinner. A college kid can always use a free meal. Skip the advice. Tell her about the dumbest thing you did when you were her age, or the Five Dumbest Things. Have a good talk. Make her laugh. Get yourself a motel room and ask if you can come to a class with her. She'll be impressed that you take an interest. And you'll get to take vicarious pleasure in her adventures in the world. Don't discuss her with her parents except to stick up for her when they rag on her, as parents are wont to do. You're her grandmother. Entirely different job.
To the Host:
I am 35, and used to listen to the show when I was driving semi-truck. The music brightened my day, and reminded me how important it is to keep playing and writing my own music. What advice would you have for a young man trying to dedicate his life to his music and present himself to the world?
Steven Jones
Newman Lake, WA
Thirty-five is not so young in the music world, Steven, and I'm sure you know that. Eighteen is young, twenty-two is young, and thirty-five is sort of a gray area. My advice is to focus on the craft of performing, developing your musical craft, and put your original music on the shelf for a little while. Try playing music that people want to dance to, or hear in the background as they eat their dinners, or that has ceremonial weight (weddings, funerals), or that you could play in a public place and make people smile as they pass by. Music that will lift up the lonely. There are a lot of lonely people in the world and music can be therapeutic for them and right there is a big vocation. Think of people at the beginning and end of the life cycle, a roomful of 2nd graders squirming in their seats, a roomful of elderly in wheelchairs, and think what you could give them in 15 minutes that would brighten their day. That's a huge service and an enormous challenge. And those people are available for music. They need it, unlike most people in the middle years who are ferociously busy, distracted, hard to reach. At the age of 35, a person has lost some of that youthful ambition and drive to excel, but he has not lost the need to Be Useful.

Thanks guys, I've got the MIDI editor somewhat figured out now. My next question is, how do you set the proper BPM so that the gridlines match up with the song (as they do on the charts in RB)?
I tried doing it by "trial & error", changing the BPM and playing the song with a click track over it to see if the clicks are in time with the song. While it may start out that way, it gradually gets off-time as the song goes on. I know that some songs intentionally change tempo mid-song, but that's not the case here.
So basically, how do you figure out the exact BPM of a song? Is there an automated way to do that in Reaper?
(Note: I'm just experimenting using an MP3 I have on my computer. I don't have master tracks or anything. I realize that may be part of the problem as I'm assuming it's easier when you have an isolated drum track.)

From the WINSS home page, click on the red "Data Analysis" ribbon.
The next screen is a search screen. To view school or district data, fill in one of the boxes on the right. Type in a whole name or a part of a name. Next click on the "GO" button. If you have trouble finding your school or district, try typing in a part of the name, click on the first letter of the name, OR click on a CESA.
The database should return a list of schools or districts. Each school or district name is a hyperlink that will take you to pages where you can click on questions you want answered.
Data are organized according to four main questions:
How well are students performing academically? | Here you'll find data about whether students are meeting academic standards: test scores, grade advancement / retention, ACT, Advanced Placement Program Exams, graduation / high school completion, postgraduation plans and more. | |
What programs, staff, and money are available? | Here you'll find data about school programs and resources that may have an impact on the success of students: course offerings and school-supported activities, staffing patterns, teacher qualifications, district revenue, district costs, and more. | |
What about attendance and behavior at school? | Here you'll find data about standards of the heart and student behaviors that affect their success academically: attendance, truancy, student participation in school-supported activities, coursetaking, suspension rates, expulsion rates, weapon or drug related incidents, other infractions or offenses, dropouts, and more. | |
What are student/school demographics? | Here you'll find data about student diversity which may have an impact on strategies and programs to help all students meet standards: enrollment by grade, gender, race/ethnicity, English language proficiency, disability status, primary disability, poverty status, and more. |
After you click on one of the four main questions you will need to select a subquestion. You will then see a page with a graph and table that include the most current available data about that subquestion. Above the graph or table there is a set of user options. See Figure 1 for the typical set of user options.
Figure 1. Graph and Table Options
- "Year" options allow you to focus on data for any specific year you choose. "Year" options appear unless "Compare To: Prior Years" is selected.
- "School Type" or "Grade" options allow you to view or compare data for elementary, middle, and high school grades or grade ranges. Most District and State data pages have at least one of these sets of options. Some School pages have a "Grade" options row.
- "View By" options allow you to view or compare data about performance and behavior by student group. Student data pages typically have these options.
- "Compare To" options allow you to see trends over time, find out what is typical districtwide, statewide, or nationwide, and how other schools like or near your school are doing.
- Additional options, e.g. "Subject" or "Level", appear depending on the subquestion.
Figure 2.Navigation Between Schools and Useful Information
To change graph/table options, select one of the active links in any row above the graph (Figure 1). To focus on a different school or district, switch organizational levels, or better understand the graphs and tables, select one of the options in the red column to the left of the graph. See Figure 2. Here you'll find a "Change school or district" link that takes you to the school search screen, "District/School home page" links that direct you to a wide range of information maintained by your school or district, a "Read about the data" link that explains how data were collected and how rates are calculated, a "Glossary" link that defines terms used on the page, and a "Download options" link that provides information about how to access and use WINSS download files. Also included are links to special features, if any, for this subquestion.
Below the graph and table are links to other DPI-sponsored reports for your school or district and to raw data files. See Figure 3. Reports include your school's "Adequate Yearly Progress Report", "School District Performance Report", and the "Special Education District Profile". You can download any or all data on WINSS for any specific WINSS subquestion for the "Year" you select by clicking on "Download raw data from this page" or "Download all school and district data statewide".
Figure 3. Links to Other District/School Reports and to Download Files
To return to the four main questions, click on the red "Data Analysis" ribbon in the upper right-hand corner of each page. |
WINSS data have distinct limits so you are encouraged to click on the links to district and school home pages on the upper left for more information about the school or district. You may also want to review other sources of school information.

Trade in live dolphins
The trade in live dolphins continues to attract considerable attention and much negative comment from NGOs, the general public and a number of Parties to CITES. The CITES Secretariat is currently receiving many requests to intervene to stop such trade.
I have previously made statements on this subject, on 30 July 2003 and 5 March 2004. These statements can be accessed in the Archives section of the CITES website at: www.cites.org/eng/news/press/index.shtml
My earlier comments regarding the provisions of the Convention remain valid, but I should like to make the following additional observations today.
Many of the people and organizations who have contacted the Secretariat, to express their concerns regarding the trade in live dolphins, have referred to the fact that no export can be allowed without a non-detriment finding. This is indeed a basic principle of CITES, which is to ensure that the export of specimens of a species will not be detrimental to the survival of wild populations.
The Conference of the Parties to CITES has noted that there are various ways in which a non-detriment finding can be made and it agreed, at its 14th meeting, in June this year, that this subject should be studied further. For the moment, however, it has not recommended any particular method for the making of a non-detriment finding. It is a matter for each State to satisfy itself that any exports will not negatively impact upon wild populations and to decide how best to reach such a decision.
In relation to trade in live dolphins, the Secretariat has not been presented with any evidence which demonstrates that non-detriment findings are not being ade-quately made before exports are authorized. Similarly, it has received no evidence to demonstrate that trade which is now taking place, or is intended to take place, will have a detrimental impact upon wild dolphin populations. There is therefore, at present, no justification for the CITES Secretariat to take steps to halt the trade. If the Secretariat receives any information to show that there is such a justification, we will certainly act.
Willem Wijnstekers
Secretary-General of CITES 15 October 2007

Netscape Navigator 9 for Linux
AOL has just released a new version of Netscape Navigator based on the Mozilla Firefox browser just like its predecessor. Besides cross-platform capabilities, and thus Linux support, version 9 adds new features and a new look.
Version 6.0 was the first to use program code by the Mozilla Foundation under the hood of Netscape Navigator. And the latest version, Version 9, also uses Mozilla code. Based on Firefox 2.0, Navigator uses the Gecko engine to support cross-platform website rendering. Netscape is extensible using Mozilla plugins and styles. But the new browser is more than just Firefox with a new look. The developers have come up with a number of extensions to accelerate the browser.
The Link Pad stores temporary links without the user needing to bookmark pages.
The release notes describe the new features and functions in Navigator 9. One of them is the "Link Pad" (see figure) which stores temporary links without the user needing to bookmark a page. Clicking on a temporary link removes the link from the Link Pad. Temporary links are automatically deleted when you close the brower. This function aims to improve visibility in the favorites menu. The URL correction function attempts to correct incorrect entries. Typos such as ".cmo" instead of ".com" are changed to reflect the correct spelling. In our initial tests, we discovered that this function is not entirely reliable; in a few cases the browser failed to identify the typos, and in some cases the suggestions were wrong. A third difference to Firefox is the integrated mini-browser (see figure). The mini-browser is integrated in the sidebar and displays a second website simultaneously with the display in the main window. Navigator removes barriers for users faced with input boxes too small to type in. Users can now click on the frame to scale the frame as needed. Navigator adds a feature to Firefox's highly accoladed tabbed browsing feature. When a user opens a link in a new tab, the tab inherits the history of the window pointing to the tab.
The mini-browser in the sidebar displays a second website parallel to the main window.
Netscape Navigator 9 is available as a download for Linux, OSX and Windows.

South London's Tom Solesbury, a member of Team GB's Quadruple Scull.

Olympic rowing: 1. Germany 2. Great Britain 3. Ukraine 4. Switzerland
Tom Solesbury helped Team GB's Quadruple Scull to a comfortable second place finish in their heat as they booked their place in the semi-final.
Kent-born Solesbury and his teammates made a sluggish start to the race, lagging in third place behind Ukraine and the sensational Germans.
But while Germany quickly opened up a huge lead, the British quad began to make up ground on their Ukrainian counterparts.
By the halfway point of the race, Great Britain had moved into second place, leaving Ukraine and Switzerland in their wake.
From that point onwards, the second place finish never looked in doubt, and despite the considerable gap opened up by Germany, the British quad can look back on a job well done.
They will now take their place in the semi-final of a highly competitive field, where they will hope to achieve their pre-tournament goal of winning a place in the final.

Easter Sunday will see more dry and windy weather. Despite Saturday's rain that came with a passing cold front, high winds Sunday will cause that water to dry up very quickly.The National Weather Service has issued several Red Flag Warnings for the western U.P. that are scheduled to expire by 9pm ET/8pm CT.
Sunday should see more warmer than average temperatures in the 50s, but it is the first day of a cooling trend that will last much of this upcoming week. Skies will see a mix of sun and clouds. Winds will be strong out of the west and northwest with gusts easily exceeding 30 mph at times.
Sunday night will be cold with lows around 30 degrees. Some rain becoming snow will develop west near the lake. Elsewhere, skies should be mostly cloudy. Winds will remain breezy, but decrease in strength.
Monday will only see highs in the low 40s, a bit warmer out east near Lake Michigan. Skies will be mostly cloudy to overcast with some scattered rain and snow throughout the day. Winds will add a chilly bite to the air.
Monday night will see continued light scattered snowfall. Lows will fall to around 30, coldest in the western interior with 20s.
Tuesday should see some lingering snowfall east, again with cooler temperatures. The rest of the week will see more highs in the 40 degree range, which is seasonal for this time of year. Things will warm up again for next weekend with highs in the 50s along with some rain.
Keep your eyes open for any fires and report them if you see them. For more weather info, join me on Facebook where I will be posting Red Flag Warnings and updates as issued by the National Weather Service. Have a safe and happy Easter!
