Reports from the South by Southwest conference and festival in Austin.
AUSTIN, Tex. — With his latest film "Chef," the actor and filmmaker Jon Favreau takes a break from directing large-scale Hollywood films to tell the more intimate story of a popular chef at a crossroads in his life. The movie, which includes a segment shot here, opened the South by Southwest film festival on Friday. In this video interview, conducted at QUI restaurant, Mr. Favreau discusses the food-related films that inspired him and the hands-on training he received from the chef Roy Choi. "Chef" is set to open nationwide May 9.
Jon Favreau's 'Chef' to Open South by Southwest Film FestivalBy Mekado Murphy
One more food truck will roll into Austin when "Chef," a comedy written, directed by and starring Jon Favreau, has its premiere on opening night of the South by Southwest Film festival, organizers announced Thursday.
Mr. Favreau plays a chef who leaves his job at a Los Angeles restaurant and eventually starts a food truck in Miami. The filmmaker was spotted last June in the kitchen of Wolfgang Puck's Los Angeles restaurant as part of research for the film. The cast includes Scarlett Johansson, John Leguizamo, Dustin Hoffman and Robert Downey Jr.
The festival announcement also mentioned other movies that will be playing the Austin, Tex., event, including the big-screen version of the television series "Veronica Mars," a documentary on zombie culture, "Doc of the Dead"; and "Creep," written by and starring Patrick Brice and Mark Duplass about the troubles that ensue when a videographer answers a Craigslist ad for a one-day job.
Other events on the schedule include a conversation with the cult Chilean director Alejandro Jodorowsky, the return of an acting workshop with Jeffrey Tambor and a keynote speech from one of the festival's biggest success stories, Lena Dunham.
The festival runs March 7 through 15.

Boeing 747-8 Completion signed by Jet Aviation Basel
Jet Aviation Basel is the first completions center to sign a contract for a private Boeing 747-8 interior completion. The contract is with an undisclosed Middle Eastern client. The company's in-house interior design studio also won the contract to design the cabin interior. A spokesman for Jet Aviation said the aircraft is slated to arrive in Basel early next year and will take about 24 months to complete. According to the company this will be the first widebody aircraft on which Catia and Smarteam, a 3-D design software suite for mechanical engineering, will be used for the engineering, production and data management requirements of the entire completion process. The software was introduced at Jet Aviation Basel earlier this year. The Basel completions center will also build a full-size mock-up model of the aircraft so the client can experience a 1:1 view of the cabin interior for the final decision-making process.

I'm trying to buy a Ruger online from out of state and I was wondering what the cheapest way to get it was. As I understand it I need to pay the price of the gun, tax on the gun, and some fees the FFL I'm shipping to charges. Is this correct? and to follow up does anyone know who the cheapest FFL in Orange County is?

Canyon- CA has a requirement that any FFL Dealer shipping TO a CA FFL Dealer must register with the CA DOJ. Many dealers in other states just will not do that.
When ownership is being transferred across a state line, it must come TO a FFL holder in your home state, Does NOT have to come FROM a FFL. While some dealers will not, a FFL can RECEIVE a firearm from anyone- they DO need ID on the sender so they can log it in to their bound book.
If you go to gunbroker.com, there is a "find a FFL" function. These are dealers that have registered with gunbroker as being willing to serve as a transfer FFL. Put in your zip code, will pull up folks in that area. MOST list their charges.
What we have here is... failure- to communicate.
C3 hit it on the head as usual, I just will add that the cheapest FFLs that do transfers are usually your pawn shops or home based. If it list by appt only, it's probably a home based FFL. So do some shopping around.

EDUCATION minister David Coltart says there is need to set up halls of fame for artistes, cultural and sports icons as a way of honouring them.
Report by Khanyile Mlotshwa
December28, 2012
in NewsDay
Contributing to the debate sparked by the failed bid to declare the late soccer star Adam Ndlovu a hero, Coltart wrote on the social network Facebook that the country should honour its celebrated citizens during their lifetime.
"The main point I made when speaking at Adam Ndlovu's funeral was that we need to devise a policy to honour sportspersons during their lifetime," the minister said.
"The same of course goes for our artistic and cultural icons as well. The United States has Halls of Fame, the United Kingdom awards knighthoods, why not Zimbabwe?"
Deputy Prime Minister and MDC-T vice-president Thokozani Khupe's request to have Ndlovu declared a national hero was turned down.
Speaking at the burial of the late Nketa MP Seiso Moyo on Monday, Speaker of Parliament Lovemore Moyo also took the opportunity to contribute to the heroism debate in the country.
"What will happen to the heroes' issue when all nationalists have died?," he asked. "The truth is that you (nationalists) will die. What is amazing is the question of heroes in this country. A hero should be someone who sacrificed for the nation at the expense of the family.
"But in this country, the tragedy is that we have a homegrown dictionary that gives us a definition of a hero as someone who went to a war, which is unfortunate. Don't be surprised tomorrow when the young generation closes the Heroes' Acre because the nationalists have failed to define the right path on the issue."
The heroes` acre is for Mugabe and his looters. When he dies we are going to name it zero`s acre and bulldoze all the graves of these thieves and start our own true heroes` acre.
It is individuals who have at some stage made the Ingutchen mental institution their residential home, who harbour the view of destroying a national monument. Of course, the law will take its course in arresting such individuals and let them prove themselves that at the time offence was committed they were suffering from a mental illness. If not, they will simply be incarcerated on jail. Ndikokuranga mapenzi seranyora izvi.
As if one more time, is not many, you are off course on your meaning here of a national hero. What we have at the Warren Park Hills, is a burial place for Zanu PF and it is time that the Party adopted an appropriate name by which to call it. Despite your illogical claims and fury, you cannot change the feelings of Zimbabweans.
This burial site has always and will at all times be referred to as a national monument for Zimbabwe. And being a national monument, only those who have shown outstanding and extraordinary work during their life time, will be buried there. Quite frankly, the late Adam Ndlovu was not an outstanding and extraordinary football player to be accorded the status of a national hero.
And remember this at all times that you do not represent the views and feelings of Zimbabweans. Zimbabweans are not as gullible as you want us to believe. They are intelligent and enlightened people who know what they want.
A national monument that houses mostly Zanu PF thugs The good persons buried there can be counted on ones fingers they must be turning in their graves
Your views can only be described as Utopian. I therefore have not time to argue with a confirmed idiot who has no respect for our national shrine or monument. As a white man who was our previous master, you can not appreciate the importance of our Heroes Acre.
As said before, your views represent those of a drunken person in a stupor. Zimbabweans had no before?. It took people from North Korea to create them and the "National Heroes Acre" for Zanu PF and the War Veterans? The case of bankruptcy on your part has already been established. What you are doing here is mumbling to yourself a clear sign of a mentally deranged person
This is the height of idiocy and ignorance when people like you think North Korea imposed its will on Zimbabweans to build the national shrine. Chikoro chishoma baba. I will not waste my time arguing with you from now on.
YESSSSS is that a promise? Maybe you would stay off the threads so sane people can dialogue and you go swing in the trees like a good Chimp!! Good boy now, off you go!
Oh gosh, no, no, Ahh this is interesting to note an idiot trying to silence a well polished and schooled man as Chimbwido Warvet. How possible is that?
One man alone can be pretty dumb sometimes, but for real bona fide stupidity, there ain't nothin' can beat teamwork.look at mugabe and zanu pf
How do you base your assertion that I am white. Even if it were to be so so what you black moron
I love the way as soon as anybody disagrees with a zanu propagandist the race card is pulled
THEN why dont you close your mouth and let us decide , take your own advice ..Zimbabweans are not as gullible as you want us to believe. They are intelligent and enlightened people who know what they want.And remember this at all times that you do not represent the views and feelings of Zimbabweans

It is individuals LIKE ME (CHIMPY IDIOTVET) who have at some stage made the Ingutchen mental institution their residential home, who harbour the view of destroying a ZANU PF monument. Of course, OUR CIO will take its course in arresting CHIMPY individuals and let them prove themselves that at the time offence was committed CHIMPS was suffering from HIS REGULAR mental illness. If not, CHIMPS will simply be incarcerated on jail. You really are a joke Chimpy!
It is better NOT to be buried at that place honestly. Later generations will view that place with controversy. When party pf blood dies that place will die with it.
Declaring the late Adam Ndlovu a national hero for just kicking the ball. Are you kidding me? This Minister should be out of his mind. Give me a break guys because it is the height of stupidity and foolishness.
Can you kick a ball besides carrying yours between your legs. Who is stupid?, are you talking about yourself. All you do is talk from your ass since you have nothing concrete to offer which has purpose.
But what. How many Zanus have been honouerd for their killing acts. It is you who is foolish for thinking honour comes from killing looting etc. The worl over pple are honouerd for excelence in different fields. Nobel prices being an example. Wait and see when the time comes heroes acre will be for every Zimbabwean who has done good for the country. Not just Zanu thieves and murderers

State offers food-safety advice
Daily Staff Reports
Virginia residents can take steps to better preserve food safely ahead of the arrival of the monster storm and potential power outages, according to a news release from the state's Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services.
So long as the door is kept closed, a large full chest freezer can keep the same temperature for about 48 hours, as opposed to 24 hours for one that is only 50-percent full, according to the release.
If your freezer isn't full, frozen containers of water can be used to fill it up, and if the electricity goes out, insulate the freezer by throwing a blanket or rug over top of it, it states.
"A full freezer that is not opened should maintain safe temperatures for several days," the release states.
Although a freezer attached to a refrigerator isn't as efficient at maintaining a safe temperature for food, if it's not opened, the contents could still be safe for a couple of days, according to the release.
Refrigerated food doesn't fare as well as frozen during power outages, the release indicates -- food would only be kept cold around four hours. Meat, poultry, fish, eggs and leftovers should be thrown out if above 40 degrees Fahrenheit for at least two hours.
Dry ice can help prolong safe temperatures for food in both freezers and fridges, and block ice can also help for refrigerated food, according to the release.
The release advises that if an in-freezer thermometer reads 40 degrees Fahrenheit once the power returns, the food is fine and can be frozen again. If your freezer doesn't have a thermometer, check each item -- if it has ice crystals or is 40 degrees or lower, it, too, is safe.
"Keep in mind that perishable food such as meat, poultry, seafood, milk and eggs that are not kept adequately refrigerated or frozen may cause illness if consumed, even when they are thoroughly cooked," the release states. "Never taste food to determine its safety, and always discard any items in the refrigerator that have come into contact with raw meat juices."
Some foods are safe even after two or more hours above 40 degrees, and include hard or processed cheeses, grated Parmesan or Romano cheese, jelly, relish, mustard, olives, pickles, soy sauce, barbecue sauce, fruit pies, fruit juices, canned fruits and raw vegetables -- with the exception of cut greens and cut tomatoes -- according to the release.
Most importantly, the release advises: "when in doubt, throw it out."
The VDACS also recommends that parents of infants stock up on prepared baby formula

Quotable Doctor Who…
How would you represent your favorite quote from Doctor Who?
"Yes, I shall come back. Until then, there must be no regrets, no tears, no anxieties. Just go forward in all your beliefs, and prove to me that I am not mistaken in mine."
~The First Doctor played by William Hartnell, Doctor Who, 1966
I love this quote because it relates to anyone you meet in life, like teachers, friends, or even family members. When you have to leave someone who is so dear to you, you should stay strong. Yes, it hurts and I admit that I am not one for goodbyes at all. In fact, I was a wreck when one of my friends moved back to Japan. But we have to remember that we will meet again someday, so we shouldn't worry or remain broken up about it.
Stay strong.
Believe in others.
But most importantly, believe in yourself.

† Appearances (Goals).
Jorge Luis Valdivia Toro (Spanish pronunciation: [ˈxorxe ˈlwjs βalˈdjβja], born 19 October 1983) is a chilean footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for Brazilian Série A club Palmeiras, of which he is also the club captain.[2][3] He is known for his technical ability with the ball. He also has played in the Chilean national team seven years, being his most successful period under the orders of the coach Marcelo Bielsa. Valdivia debuted in 2003 aged nineteen at the southern club of Universidad de Concepción, that gave him a pass to Europe and then to powerhouse club Colo-Colo, that served him with Claudio Borghi as coach, as a window to the success, devoting and being sold for a US$3.5 million bid to Palmeiras, in where earned a Paulistão honour in 2008 and a Copa do Brasil title in 2012. He also has between that facts a two–season spell at Middle East club Al Ain.
His style of play closely resembles to Joga Bonito, being alongside Juliano Belletti one of the mentors of the Chute no vácuo, that in his country is commonly known as Espanta chunchos in reference to a derision of strong rival of Colo-Colo, the team Universidad de Chile. In 2007, Valdivia was included into the Brasileirão best XI, and also named the UFL Most Valuable Player, seasons later. In 2008, year in where the player won the Paulistão title, was described according to Carlos Valderrama as one of the world's best players.
Despite of Valderrama's very well references and also receiving similar reviews of Jorge Toro (a football legend in Chile), Valdivia has a controversial public image, frequently appearing in showbiz programs, constant rumours of him "cheating" his wife Daniela Aránguiz, and in the other way around, and also of his brother Claudio, who has comments about his appearances in reality shows, dating with models, etc. In November 2011, Jorge was the main protagonist of the Bautizazo alongside another four players of the Chilean national team, and in following year's February he appeared in the Festival of Viña del Mar gala, being the Bautizazo the most controversial act of his career.
Club career[edit]
Born to Chilean parents in Maracay, Venezuela, Valdivia moved to his native country Chile at a young age, settling in the capital of Santiago. There, he would develop his football skills in the youth teams of Colo-Colo in 1990, aged 7. He was promoted to the first adult team in June 2002, but was loaned to Universidad de Concepción to get some first team experience and also for disciplinary problems.
Valdivia made his professional debut with U. de Concepción against his own club Colo-Colo, in a 1–1 draw. He immediately impressed in the club because of his skills, being a starter for the whole 2003 Apertura. He helped the club qualify for the Copa Sudamericana for first time in the team's history. After his good season with the Concepción club, also in the Clausura tournament, it was rumoured that he would return to Colo-Colo, but was loaned to the Spanish club Rayo Vallecano[4] and then to Servette of the Axpo Super League.
After two seasons in Europe, Valdivia returned to Colo-Colo in 2005. In January of the same year, Boca Juniors pre-registered the player for a transfer fee of $1.5 million, but shortly after Colo-Colo decided to keep the player. On 13 March 2005, Valdivia made his official debut against Cobreloa in a 2–0 victory at Estadio Monumental David Arellano. He scored his first competitive goal for the club in a 3–2 away win over Unión San Felipe, scoring the victory goal at 89th minute. After a lack of opportunities during the Apertura tournament, for the Clausura, he was a high-profile player of Colo-Colo, being the club's top goalscorer with 9 goals in 16 appearances.
In the next season, with the arrival of Claudio Borghi as the coach, Valdivia was established as the playmaker of the club, having more continuity in the club. He was the key player for the club, making up a dynamic trio in the midfield with Matías Fernández and Gonzalo Fierro. On 16 April 2006, during the derby lost 3–2 against Universidad Católica, Jorge was a protagonist in a scandal during the game, because of controversies with the referee Rubén Marcos Selman. Finally, after 4 years, Valdivia and his skills helped Colo-Colo win the Chilean Primera División.

International career[edit]
Born in Venezuela to Chilean parents, Valdivia was eligible to play for the national team of either country. In 2004, he was first capped for the Chile national football team in a match against Mexico.[12] On 16 November 2006, he scored his first international goal in a 3–2 defeat of Paraguay.
He was selected for Chile's Copa América 2007 squad and played in the team's first game against Ecuador in a 3–2 victory. For Chile's third goal, an Ecuadorian player fouled Valdivia and Carlos Villanueva scored the game-winning goal on a free kick. In the second game for Chile against Brazil, he was injured by Elano and before he had a heated discussion with Robinho during the match. Because of the injury, Valdivia missed the match against Mexico, but Chile qualified to the quarter-finals against Brazil. On 7 July 2007, celebrating for advancing to the quarter-finals, Valdivia, Reinaldo Navia, Álvaro Ormeño, Jorge Vargas, Rodrigo Tello and Pablo Contreras were caught in a scandal at the hotel of Puerto Ordaz, sexually abusing two waitresses according to Canal 13. After this incident, the six players that participated in the scandal were sancionated by the Anfp for 20 games, but shortly after the sanction was reduced to 10 games. However, Chile was eliminated by Brazil in a 6–1 loss.
On 5 August 2008, coach Marcelo Bielsa confirmed that Valdivia would officially return to the national team for a friendly match against Turkey. In this game, he came off the bench in the second half, however Chile was defeated by 1–0 with a goal by Hamit Altıntop. On 7 September 2008, he played his first game for the 2010 FIFA World Cup qualification against Brazil, during the match he received a red card in the 63rd minute, immediately he was acclaimed for the Brazilian fans, who chanted: "Valdivia is Brazilian." On 10 October 2009, in the 4–2 away win to Colombia for the qualifiers, Valdivia played an important roll during the match, scoring the third goal of the national team and gave the assist for the fourth goal to Fabián Orellana. Chile qualified to the 2010 FIFA World Cup, after a 12-year absence without making an appearance in the tournament, making history for Chilean football.
During the preparatory games prior to the World Cup, Valdivia was frequently in Bielsa's starting line-up. On 26 May 2010, in a match against Zambia that Chile won 3–0, he assisted Alexis Sánchez in scoring the third goal of the game. Valdivia was selected to the 23-man roster to represent Chile in South Africa. On 16 June, Valdivia made his World Cup debut as a striker, as Humberto Suazo was still recovering from an injury and a proper center forward replacement wasn't included in the squad, in a 1–0 win over Honduras with a goal by Jean Beausejour. He returned to his natural playmaker position in the second game, coming in as a substitute at the start of the second half where he helped set up the only goal of the game passing a long ball to Esteban Paredes who then assisted Mark González who scored with a header. The third game, against Spain, saw Valdivia replacing Suazo as a striker again, going on to play only the first half of the game.
After the abrupt departure of Marcelo Bielsa, former Colo-Colo coach Claudio Borghi was appointed as the new coach of the national team. Following a controversial event known as El Bautizazo where Valdivia along with fellow Chilean players Arturo Vidal, Jean Beausejour, Gonzalo Jara, and Carlos Carmona were attending one of Valdivia's daughters' baptism and were supposedly drinking heavily, showed up late to their training facility and were denied entrance by Borghi. Due to the players being denied entrance, they could not take part in the World Cup qualifying match against Uruguay, where Chile lost 4–0. Valdivia didn't play in the national team until September 2013 against Venezuela, when he was recalled by Jorge Sampaoli.
On 1 June 2014, Valdivia was selected in Chile's squad for the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil.[13] In Chile's opening group match against Australia, Valdivia scored the team's second goal in a 3–1 victory.[14]

Radley, a three-star safety, picked Utah over Texas Tech and North Carolina.
"I'm going with the Utes of Utah," said Radley. "I just felt comfortable there for the next four years. They want me to play running back."
Radley said the offensive angle impressed him.
"After I learn everything on the offense, they said they can throw me in on some DB to and maybe go both ways. But I'll start out as a running back."
Radley said he's been keeping things quiet for the past few weeks, including to some of the Utah commits he knows.
"Kenneth Scott is my boy, but I didn't tell him. I've been playing Utah down. And Brian Blechen is a great dude too," said Radley. "Them being there, that played a role too."
The recent success of the Utes weighed heavily with Radley.
"They're on an eight-game bowl winning streak and they're a great program, from top to bottom. They're on the upswing. Coach (Kyle) Whittingham is a great coach and I know he's a great coach because his name was in on the Florida job, the USC job and the Tennessee job. They're offering him a head coaching job everywhere and he's staying. That says a lot about his character. That's just saying something about the coaches. The facilities are nice. We can win a national championship there."
Radley visited North Carolina and Texas Tech, but said the family vibe at Utah won out.
"Utah is more hands on," said Radley. "At Texas Tech and North Carolina, they're building a football team, but Utah is building a family, more than a football team, they're a family."
Radley said he was happy to have the recruiting process draw to a close.
"It's been fun, I loved it, it's a great experience," said Radley. "And I've been waiting for this time for a long time, but at the same time, I'm glad it's over with. Now I can worry about getting bigger, stronger and faster."

Q: I have a business, but it is not motorsports related. Would your company still be interested in building my business a website?
Although the motorsport industry is our specialty at Dextreme Technologies, we are more than capable of building eye catching websites for any business. We are happy to build websites for anyone. Afterall, business is business and turning away business doesn't put beer in the fridge or gas in the jet ski and quads.
Q: Why should I put my business on the internet?
Dextreme Technologies believes one very simple rule, if you have a product or service to offer, you can't afford
be on the internet!!!
Q: What can Dextreme do for my motorsport business that other website builders can't?
As motorsport enthusiasts, Dextreme Technologies spends hours a day corresponding with others, promoting and discussing what we love. Most website builders will give you only what you ask for and then are off to another project. They do not go the extra mile by taking the time to promote and encourage traffic to your site or to build a long term relationship with your company. We truly feel that Dextreme Technologies is a useful "service" for the motorsports industry.
Q: Why should I use your company to build my website?
Dextreme Technologies has been building websites for over 5 years. We find that many clients know they want a website for their business, but do not know where to start or don't have the time to figure it out on their own. Some companies might already have an existing website, but it is outdated and needs an overhaul. No problem! Get in touch with us, let's talk about your needs. Hey, it never hurts to inquire!!!
Q: What motorsports is your company specifically interested in building sites for?
Is "all of them" a good answer? Whether it is PWC, MX, Karts, or even Pro Mod Chainsaws, if it has a motor and turns some serious RPMs, it is EXTREME!!!

The costuming department has put Kate in clothing so tight and heels so high, they make Ally McBeal's notorious miniskirt suits seem like something you would expect to find on Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
— New York Times television critic Ginia Bellafante, referring to Kate Reed, the protagonist of the new legal drama Fairly Legal (in a review of Fairly Legal, which premieres on Thursday at 10 p.m. on USA, and Harry's Law, a second legal drama, which debuts tonight at 10 p.m. on NBC).
(But don't forget that the fine-boned Justice Ginsburg was a beauty in her youth — she was even a high school cheerleader.)

The Dallas Cowboys have never gone 11-1 before, but that's not the reason they should be the most-feared team in the NFL. Why should opposing teams fear the Dallas Cowboys?
It's the new Triplets: Tony Romo, Terrell Owens and Jason Witten. Together, they make up the most-explosive offense in the NFL. But it doesn't stop there. We also have two of the best sack artists in the game: Greg Ellis and DeMarcus Ware, the hardest-hitting safety Roy Williams, and the best cornerback in the game, Terence Newman. The defense has a +7 turnover ratio, 33 sacks and 18 interceptions.
As you come to terms with the sheer power I just exposed to you all, it still continues. The Cowboys have a rushing duo of Marion Barber III and Julius Jones. They are 7th in the NFL with an average of 120 yards a game.
This team is better than the Super Bowl teams of the 90s. This team is better than the Super Bowl teams of the 70s. The Cowboys today are deeper, stronger and faster. They should be feared.
At anytime during a game, Tony Romo has a stock of weapons to whom he can throw. He runs the second-best offense in the NFL. Just as easy, he could hand it off to one of his two rested backs, who at any time, can break away for a touchdown with power and speed. There's no team in the NFL that has this rushing power, other than maybe the Vikings. Which reminds me: The Dallas defense stuffed the Vikings running game, holding Adrian Peterson to just 63 yards.
So why is everyone on the Patriots bandwagon? Not only does the team cheat to win, but they are the most overrated team in the NFL right now. I am aware that Dallas lost to the Patriots 48-27, but there were a lot of penalties called on Dallas and even more holding calls not called on the Patriots. The Cowboys also did not go for it on fourth down in the fourth quarter when they were down by 14 points. The game was a lot closer than the score. The Patriots have hit a plateau; Dallas has not.
But don't let me digress. Dallas is the best team in the NFL. I am confident they are. The Dallas Cowboys are even tops on the Internet, proven here.

|Introduction And Specifications
Samsung and AT&T are hoping to attract customers who want a sleek Windows Phone at an affordable price with the Samsung Focus 2. The Focus 2 is Samsung's first 4G LTE Windows Phone. It's also the third Windows Phone from AT&T that connects to the carrier's 4G LTE network. AT&T's 4G LTE network is currently available in 47 markets which covers over 74 million Americans.
Running on Windows Phone 7.5 (codenamed Mango), the Focus 2 features a 4-inch Super AMOLED screen, 1.4GHz Qualcomm processor, and a 5-megapixel camera. With Windows Phone 7.5, you'll get Live Tiles which gives you real time updates directly from the Start Screen; you can see calendar appointments, emails, social media updates, and more with a quick glance thanks to Live Tiles.
Click to enlarge
The Focus 2 is thin and lightweight, measuring 10.98mm thick and weighing 4.3 ounces. When you compare the footprint of the Focus 2 to many of today's popular Android handsets, you'll immediately notice the Focus 2 is smaller, enabling it to fit very easily in your pocket or purse and making it comfortable to hold in your hand.
The Focus 2 is currently available from AT&T for $49.99 with a two-year contract. Given its budget-friendly price, the Focus 2 isn't designed to compete with the high-end $200+ handsets on the market. Instead, it's designed to give Windows Phone users 4G LTE connectivity and reasonable performance without breaking the bank.
|Design and Build Quality
The Focus 2 has a white casing with a silver band on the edges of the phone. Above the 4-inch WVGA Super AMOLED (480 x 800) display, you'll find the VGA camera in the upper left corner. Between the camera and speaker at the top of the phone, you'll see proximity and light sensors. Below the display are three buttons: Back, Start / Windows , and Bing search.
On the left edge of the phone in the silver band, you'll find the volume rocker. The microUSB port is located on the bottom edge of the phone. On the right edge, you'll find the Power/Lock key as well as a dedicated camera button. The Focus 2's 3.5mm headphone jack is located on the top edge.
Click to enlarge
Upon pressing the dedicated camera button from any screen on the phone, the camera application will open. Similar to using a standalone point-and-shoot camera, pressing this button halfway down provides a focus lock and pressing the button completely down will snap a photo. It's a nice touch, and it makes the Focus 2's camera feel much more like a standalone point-and-shoot camera than most smartphone cameras.
You'll find the Focus 2's 5 megapixel camera and LED flash on the back of the phone near the top. The back battery cover is removable and provides access to the phone's SIM card. The Focus 2 does not have a microSD card slot.
The Focus 2 measures 4.79 x 2.47 x 0.43 inches and weighs 4.3 ounces, making it one of the lightest phones we've looked at recently.
|Software and User Experience
As we said in our review of the Nokia Lumia 900 smartphone, Windows Phone 7.5 has made great strides and now feels much more refined and elegant than previous versions of Windows Phone. This OS is finally at a state that can compete with Android and iOS.
Thanks to Windows Phone 7.5, the Focus 2 is able to offer a threaded email inbox, Office Mobile, and Microsoft SharePoint support. In addition to searching the web, Bing Search lets you search for music by having the phone "listen" to a playing track; scan barcodes, QR Codes, Microsoft Tags, and more; and dictate searches using the voice controls.
Microsoft is also focusing on providing information that's relevant to your location with Local Scout. Once the phone finds your location (it didn't take long on our test model), you can page through nearby restaurants, activities, shopping, and highlights. This app is easy to use and visually very appealing.
Like the Nokia Lumia 900, the Focus 2 also comes with Internet Sharing enabled, which lets you share the phone's Internet connection with up to five other devices. As far as browsing on the phone is concerned, the latest version of Internet Explorer is a definite improvement over previous editions. The browser felt smooth and responsive during our testing.
Click to enlarge
The Microsoft Marketplace app store is growing, but the number of titles available is still relatively small in comparison to what you'll see on iOS or Android. First time smartphone buyers will likely be happy with the Marketplace offerings, but long-time Android and iOS users will likely find some missing apps in comparison to these larger app stores.
Windows Phone 7.5 also supports multitasking. Just press and hold the Back button and you'll see a card-like interface that lets you quickly switch between apps.
Click to enlarge
|Performance, Camera, And Battery Life
Even though the Focus 2 has a single-core CPU, it feels quite responsive. The user interface is responsive and we didn't feel as if we were waiting on the phone to react to our demands. Multitouch controls work well and are quick to respond when pinching to zoom in the browser or when viewing photos.
Microsoft caps Windows Phone device screens to 800 x 480. As a result, the Focus 2's screen isn't quite as dense as other screens we've seen. Overall, the Focus 2's 4-inch WVGA Super AMOLED looks good. Viewing the screen outdoors under direct sunlight was no worse than on other phones with a Super AMOLED screen. In some instances, viewing the screen outdoors was a bit easier thanks to Microsoft's clean user interface and dark backgrounds on some screens. Viewing angles are excellent.
Click to enlarge
The Focus 2 has a 5 megapixel camera on the back of the phone. Some indoor images were occasionally washed out by the LED flash, but that's pretty common when taking a close-up shot indoors with any smartphone camera. Our biggest complaint is that some outdoor images didn't always display the best color. While we appreciate the implementation of the camera app and camera button, image quality is of greatest importance. The Focus 2's camera captured a number of respectable images, but since some of our images didn't really show the true coloration of the setting, we wouldn't recommend trading your point-and-shoot for this on-board camera.
The Focus 2 comes with a 1750mAh battery. Samsung says you should be able to get up to 10.4 days of standby time with 3G service or up to 6.5 days of standby time with 4G LTE service. Samsung rates the continuous usage of this phone at up to 6 hours. To put these numbers to the test and give a better feel for how the Focus 2 compares to other Windows Phone devices we've seen, we ran the WP Bench Battery benchmark. This benchmark keeps the screen on and loops a CPU-intensive task in the background.
In this test, the Focus 2 lasted for four hours and 36 minutes – just a few minutes longer than the Nokia Lumia 900. During the test, the Focus 2 was connected to AT&T's 4G HSPA network, not an LTE network. To be fair, we must point out that the Lumia 900 was connected to AT&T's LTE network during the test. Although the radio isn't exercised during the test, having it active and available in the background will make a difference. Still, this test shows you should be able to enjoy respectable battery life with the Focus 2.
|Performance Benchmarks
In addition to using the Focus 2 in a variety of everyday usage scenarios, we also conducted some formal performance testing to see how well the handset compares to other smartphones. WP Bench is a performance-oriented benchmarking application within the Windows Phone 7 Marketplace. To date, it's one of the only ways to test the small-but-growing stable of WP7 handsets.
Similar to the Nokia Lumia 900, the Focus 2 has a single-core 1.4GHz Qualcomm processor and 512MB of RAM. In comparison to today's hottest Android smartphones, the Focus 2 may appear under powered. Despite the hardware, the Windows Phone operating system functions quite well--it simply doens't need multi-core processors to feel quick. As you can see from the WP Bench scores above, the Focus 2 performs very well in comparison to a few other Windows Phone handsets we've seen recently. In fact, the Focus 2 always came in first or second place in all of the benchmarks.
The Samsung Focus 2 offers good performance using hardware that's not exactly top-of-the line in comparison to Android phones of today (the Focus 2 has a 4-inch Super AMOLED screen, a single-core 1.4GHz Qualcomm processor, and 512MB of RAM). Windows Phone 7 dictates some of the hardware requirements for the Focus 2 which may seem to hold it back on paper, but real-world usage shows the phone is very responsive and proves the OS / hardware combination really has a lot to offer.
The Focus 2 is also thin and lightweight, taking up less space in your pocket or purse than many of today's hot Android phones. As we pointed out, the Focus 2 is actually one of the lightest smartphones we've seen in recent months.
Click to enlarge
We definitely appreciate that the Focus 2 has 4G LTE connectivity. However, considering AT&T currently offers 4G LTE service in only 47 markets, there are still a number of Americans who won't be able to use this phone's full speed capabilities on a regular basis.
The Focus 2 isn't designed to be one of AT&T's high-end phones. Instead, it's designed to be a budget-friendly and feature-rich smartphone. If you're looking for a good Windows Phone smartphone or if you're new to the smartphone market and want something that's not going to break the bank but that will provide access to AT&T's 4G LTE network, the Focus 2 is definitely a smartphone to consider. Keep in mind though, that no current Windows Phone will be upgraded to Windows Phone 8. The Focus 2 is likely to receive an update to 7.8, which will make the interface and other visual elements looks like WP8, but the full blown version of Microsoft's next mobile OS will only arrive on new hardware, which may be worth waiting for.

John the Gun Lyrics - The Fatima Mansions
(Music/Lyrics--Sandy Denny) Warlock Music
"My shadow follows me wherever I should chance to go,"
John the Gun did say.
"If you should chance to meet me as I wander to and fro,
sad would be your day.
My life is mine and light did shine
'til the guns, they did go through me,
So now I shall never fall.
Ideals of peace are gold which fools
have found upon the plains of war.
I shall destroy them all."
Put away your guns of steel
Death comes too soon for all
Your master, he may need you soon
and you must heed his call
sponsored links"I am the master of the games that you will hardly ever play,
so I will teach your sons.
and if they should die before the evening of their span of days,
why, then they will die young."--CHORUS
"Condemn me not, for always will I play the game of war
in moonshine or in sun,
and if any cross the path I choose to tread,
their chances they are poor.
My name is John the Gun."
Oh, put away your guns of steel
Death comes too soon for all
Your master, he may need you soon
And you must heed his call

Loyola Marymount landed a big commitment from 2014 point guard Kyron Cartwright, who pledged to Max Good and the Lions on Monday night.
The 5-11, 165 lb point guard from Compton High School in Compton, Calif. had offers from New Mexico, Cal-State Fullerton, and San Diego, before ending his recruitment Monday night.
Cartwright is a left-handed point guard that has a great deal of raw athleticism. He is quick and bouncy, and has the innate ability to drive into the lane and either finish at the rim or kick out to the open shooter.
He is the younger brother of former Iowa standout Bryce Cartwright, who like Kyron was an under-the-radar recruit coming out of high school. After spending two years at Fresno State and Paris Junior College, Cartwright transferred to Iowa where he started 43 games. If the younger Cartwright progresses in the game way the older one did, LMU could be getting a steal with him.
According to ESPN, Cartwright is a three-star prospect, and 47th best point guard in the nation. Many national recruiting analysts described Cartwright as a nice pickup for the Lions:
Big commitment for LMU in Kyron Cartwright. Speedy PG can create and shoot. One of bigger sleepers out west in 2014.
— Josh Gershon (@JoshGershon) November 12, 2013
Loyola Marymount corralled two of the most underrated prospects in So-Cal in fast-rising Elijah Stewart and the explosive Kyron Cartwright
— Joel Francisco (@JoelFranESPN) November 12, 2013
Loyola Marymount picks up another good commitment by way of Compton High's Kyron Cartwright. He is one of the better 2014 PGs out West.
— Frank Burlison (@FrankieBur) November 12, 2013
Cartwright joins Devin Wyatt (TX), Elijah Stewart (CA), and Alex Rifkind (FL) in the Lions 2014 recruiting class. He is the only true point guard of the three.
With Anthony Ireland graduating after this season, Kyron Cartwright will join Nino Jackson and Chase Flint as the Lions perspective point guard next season. Although the other two will most likely have the upper-hand upon Cartwright's arrival, with his athleticism and skill he will get his chance.

Hodgson keeps Hart as England's No. 1 choice for goalkeeper
11/7/13 in Soccer | JamesSmith23 | 1413 respect
England manager Roy Hodgson claims he still has faith in Joe Hart's ability to give a top drawer performance in front of the sticks. The Three Lions boss confirmed Joe Hart as his first-choice goalkeeper, although the shot-stopper lost his first-team spot at Manchester City earlier this month.
Hart was sacked by Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini after the Englishman committed a number of jaw-dropping blunders. Hart's exclusion from Manchester City's first-team meant he could also lose his England spot. Celtic's Fraser Forster and Norwich City's John Ruddy are possible candidates for the job, although Hodgson is still eager to put his faith in Hart's abilities.
Speaking to reporters in a news conference at the Wembley ahead of friendlies with Chile and Germany, Hodgson announced Hart as his No. 1 choice in front of the sticks.
"Joe will definitely start one [of the matches] as he is our No. 1 goalkeeper. He might start against Germany, but I won't be pinned down on that," Hodgson said.
However, Hodgson insists that his decision not to field Forster or Ruddy doesn't mean Hart had any kind of immunity. The England boss insists Hart will fall down the pecking order if the goalkeeper doesn't record first-class performances.
"Every manager must manage his club in the way he sees best to manage his club," Hodgson said. "I do the same. I look at the English goalkeepers who are available to play and then I pick the best one. Up to now that has been Joe Hart, but Manuel Pellegrini and Manchester City are entitled to do whatever he wants with his club.
"It is important for me to look at one of the other two goalkeepers, possibly both, so that is what I intend to do."
Hodgson further stated that he believed Hart will soon be back in Manchester City's first-team. The former Liverpool manager also said that he was happy England had the luxury of choosing from three good goalkeepers.
"It is November. He made a mistake or possibly two mistakes," Hodgson said. "As a result of those mistakes, the [Manchester City] manager has made his decision. I would be a lot more concerned if Joe Hart never got his place back, and if in the spring of next year when I have to select 23 players he was a constant reserve, I will cross that bridge when I come back. I firmly believe Joe is such a good goalkeeper he will get back in the team.
"We are happy we have got three goalkeepers. Fraser Forster has not been held back by the SPL, he has been held back by Joe Hart. Goalkeepers can find themselves behind the No. 1 through no fault of their own. I want to put a word in with John Ruddy as well. It is up to me to decide which is number one."

I noted in a recent post that independent league teams are always looking for that one promotion to top all the others promotions that are out there. In that same post, Pete Rose managed a game for the Independent Bridgeport Bluefish. These clubs have to find a way to fill those seats. There's been a few rather creative ones that have hit this season.
Same goes for those minor league clubs that have a MLB affiliation, too.
Well, I may have come across one that does top all the others. At least in my book it does.
Now comes the Williamsport Crosscutters, the Philadelphia Phillies rep in the short-season New York-Penn league (A-). They have a promotion that rivals those of the Fresno Grizzles and their Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles jerseys or any Star Wars themed jerseys ever created. There's even a Fresh Prince inspired jersey from the State College Spikes, also of the New York-Penn League.
But how does the sight of ugly Christmas sweater jerseys grab you?
Check out the Ugly Christmas Sweater Jerseys players will be wearing tonight! #ugly pic.twitter.com/bmU2CBmE7L
— Cutters Baseball (@crosscutters) June 25, 2014
The Crosscutters aren't the first minor league franchise to implement this. Chris Creamer of sportslogos.net tells of a ECHL club, the Reading Royals, affiliate of the NHL's Washington Capitals, having a rather dreadful looking Christmas sweater as well.
As part of the Crosscutters "Halfway to Christmas" promotion, anyone bringing a new, unwrapped toy to their box office will receive a free general admission ticket. All toys donated will go to the local Toys for Tots campaign. Also, fans will be able to bid on the game-worn jerseys with all proceeds also benefiting the local Toys for Tots.
Sweet move, but those jerseys…
And Williamsport should be a familiar city to you. South Williamsport, which sits across the West Branch of the Susquehanna River, serves as host to the Little League World Series.
Now that I think about it, this might have served as inspiration to the Crosscutters creative team…

Re: If this happens...
God forbid upper management take some sort of pay cut. The recession hits everyone EXCEPT executives and the like. It's effing pathetic. "Lets screw everyone ELSE over, and demand MORE growth when the world is struggling" I love the logic. In fact...I'm lovin it!
