Werner tops podium, Bobcats third at Cyclocross Nationals
The Lees-McRae College cycling team turned in an impassioned performance at the 2012 USA Cycling Collegiate Cyclocross Nationals this weekend, finishing one point behind team omnium champion Marian University and second-place Fort Lewis College to claim the third spot on the podium. Marian and Fort Lewis finished tied atop the team omnium standings with 167 points each, while Lees-McRae placed second in both the men's and women's races to claim the third spot on the podium with 166 markers. Lindsey Wilson College and the University of Wisconsin at Madison each finished tied with 113 points to place fourth and fifth, respectively. The weekend kicked off with the women's races on Saturday, as the Bobcats placed three riders in the top 10 and five in the top 20 to head into Sunday's men's races second in the team omnium standings with 83 points. Emily Shields (Salisbury, NC) turned in a third-place individual finish with a time of 46:01:00, while twin sister Katherine Shields (Salisbury, NC) and Erica Zaveta (Erwinna, PA) placed fifth and sixth, respectively, with times of 47:16:00 and 47:29:00. Cinthia Lehner (Greer, SC) placed 16th with a time of 1:00:10, while Mackenzie Filippi (Cary, NC) finished 17th. Kerry Werner (Birdsboro, PA) followed with the performance of the weekend for the Bobcats, winning the men's race with a time of 41:03:00 to grab the top spot on the podium. Bradford Perley (Kennebunkport, Maine) also finished ninth with a time of 44:20:00, rebounding from a bad crash and finishing the race injured in perhaps the gutsiest performance of the weekend. Nathan Larson (Erie, Pa.) and Davis Bentley (Mill Valley, Calif.) also finished 13th and 17th, respectively for the Bobcats. Werner closed out the weekend as the men's individual omnium champion, while Emily and Katherine Shields each earned a spot on the women's podium. Lees-McRae opens the 2012 road season on February 4 and 5 in Gainesville, Florida at the University of Florida's road weekend. Visit

A little off topic, Guys... I have a question. Last week I played around this site:
[url=http://www.rivalspot.com]Rivalspot.com - Play Ps3 tournaments for cash[/url]
They say you can play online FIFA Soccer game tournaments on any console for cash... had anyone tried that before? Looks like a cool idea...
Are there any other sites where you can play sports games for real moneys? I Googled and found only Bringit.com and Worldgaming.com but it looks these guys don't specialize in sport gamez. Any suggestions?

Starbucks helps foster youth in Kern County with annual gift drive
Last year, customers donated more than 3,500 gifts
BAKERSFIELD, Calif. -
This holiday season, Starbucks customers in California can share the magic of the holidays with a foster child in need.
Through the coffee giant's annual 'Light Up a Child's Life' holiday gift drive, foster youth being served by Aspiranet, one of the largest nonprofit social service agencies in California, will receive gift donations through this joint effort at participating Starbucks locations.
One of Aspiranet's greatest needs is serving older foster children – both in helping to provide them with meaningful holiday gifts, and when trying to find foster parents for this age group.
From now through Dec. 21, foster youths' gift wishes will be on display at one of 24 Starbucks stores in Kern County.
Starbucks customers who wish to participate can select a gift wish of a child in foster care from 5 to 17. Unwrapped gifts can be returned to the store location with the original gift tag attached.
Now in its fifth year, the annual Starbucks gift drive builds a bridge between the generosity of the community and the holiday wishes of foster children.
Last year, Starbucks customers donated more than 3,500 gifts, allowing Aspiranet social workers to deliver age-appropriate gifts for foster youth between the ages of 5 and 17 to thousands of children throughout the state.
"We are very grateful to partner with Starbucks again and for their generous support of Aspiranet and the children in our care," said Vernon Brown, CEO of Aspiranet. "As always, we see a greater need for our older youth between the ages of 10 and 17, and encourage the public to open their hearts to foster youth of all ages this season."
A list of participating Starbucks locations can be found at: http://aspiranetheroes.org/giftdrive . Those unable to visit a Starbucks store can help fund a holiday party for foster children by making an online tax-deductible donation at www.aspiranetheroes.org/giftdrive .

FORT WAYNE – Fort Wayne's Solid Waste Department needs tighter controls, officials said, after an audit found problems in what the city was being paid for recycled materials, billing for multi-unit residences and how it's paid for scrap metal.
The internal audit, released Friday, found that Republic Services owed the city $4,246 because of errors in rates and tonnage calculations.
Auditor Mindy Hurley said the totals on the spreadsheets used all matched, but when she added up the columns by hand they didn't match the totals.
The audit also found problems in the billing for multi-unit housing. Some were correctly coded for multi-unit but were only being charged as if it was a single-family home. Some single-family homes were coded as if they were multi-unit. Auditors said that it appeared that in most cases the incorrect coding was not resulting in incorrect billing, but there was no way to know for certain because of the errors.
The department said the problems stemmed from the data not being reviewed for several years but that it would be audited to ensure all coding and billing is correct.
Auditors then found that departments were not tracking the container numbers used by city departments for recycling scrap metal. The result was that there was no way to ensure they were being paid for the scrap they recycled.
Finally, they found that customers who had ordered an extra garbage cart were not being billed the extra $2 a month because the department was not sending the list of addresses in a timely manner. The department will now send the list monthly.
A separate audit brought almost nothing but praise for the city parks department.
This was a really clean audit, said Tracy Neumeier, director of the Internal Audit Department. They do a really good job over there.
Neumeier said the audit was especially impressive given the size and scope of the parks department, which is one of the city's largest.
The only item found was a minor one, dealing with a contract for maintenance of Headwaters Park. The base contract is for $100,000, but there are items that can be added on, which would push it above the threshold for requiring City Council approval. Auditors suggested getting City Council approval on the contract in the future in case the price is increased later.
The Audit Committee also discussed its review of the charter and city ordinance establishing and governing the audit department itself.
During budget discussions last fall, City Council members suggested eliminating the department; that move was later reduced to funding it only for the first quarter of 2013 and requiring audit officials to come back and justify the department's existence.
As part of that process, the department is reviewing its governing documents, policies and procedures.

My Sister's Secret Life
He hadn't seen her in years, not since she left home for good. Then he found her in the pages of a porn magazine.
By Robert Radin
The last time I bought a porn magazine was in the fall of 1996. My girlfriend, Amy, had gone down to New York to meet some friends from college. As soon as she was safely out of the parking lot of our apartment building, I got in my car and drove to an adult bookstore in Enfield, CT, a town and a state far enough away from where I lived that I could be sure I wouldn't run into anyone I knew. When I got home, I went straight into our bedroom and lay down on our bed. Then I looked at all the pictures from cover to cover before choosing one woman to focus on.
I was paging through the phone-sex ads when I saw a picture of my sister.
I closed the magazine and put it down on the bed. I stared at the ceiling for what felt like hours.
It was the scar that gave her away. When she was 18, she was driving drunk and slammed her VW into a tree. Her head had cracked the windshield, leaving a deep scar between her eyebrows. No amount of makeup could conceal it.
She was on a page called "Party Girls Hotline." She was with two other women. They were standing in a line, sandwiched together. First there was my sister, then there was another blonde, then there was a brunette. The brunette was kissing the blonde on the cheek, digging her fingernails into her ass.
My sister was the only one who was looking into the camera. She had a fake smile and an orange tanning-booth tan. She was wearing a lei with green and yellow and pink flowers.
I told myself it wasn't my sister. The odds were too great. I taped the page that had the picture of her to the page before it so I wouldn't accidentally turn to it again.
Six years later I was in a Thai restaurant on Van Nuys Boulevard in Los Angeles for a family reunion of sorts. Amy and I were married by then, and we were there with our son. It had been a long time since I'd been back home. I'd moved to Massachusetts in 1991 to go to graduate school, suspecting, even then, that I wouldn't return to L.A. unless and until someone died. I bore my family no ill will; it was just that I couldn't be around them very long without feeling sick.
My mother was there, and my brother and his wife, and my aunt. I was spooning Pad Thai onto my plate when my brother mumbled something to me about our sister.
"You know she's doing porn, don't you?" he said.
I felt like the floor was giving way below me.
"I didn't know," I said.
"It's nasty, Bob. She's doing everything. Girls. Black guys. Gang bangs. Taking it up the ass."
"How do you know this?" I said.
"Because I saw it. I saw it with my own eyes."
"It's true, brother," his wife said.
"Are you sure it's her?" I said.
"It's her, Bob," he said. "You don't believe me, check it out for yourself."
He told me her porn name. It sounded like the name of a character from a Victorian novel.
"She's a whore," he said.
My wife and I exchanged a look. Don't worry, she told me with her eyes, we'll talk about this later. Just get through it.
Thank God my son didn't hear. My aunt had taken him to the bathroom.
I don't know if my mother heard. Part of me thought she had but was just pretending she hadn't. She seemed entirely focused on her food, a plate of shrimp and green chiles. I watched her peel back the shells with her fingers.
When we were growing up, I tried to be a good brother to my sister. I was always encouraging her to build model airplanes with me or to play Parcheesi, but most of the time my efforts just backfired. I was only four years older, but it felt like we were a generation apart.
When I was 10 years old, I was obsessed with the Beatles. My sister reacted the way most little sisters would: She told me the Beatles sucked. But every Saturday morning, as I sat on my bedroom floor listening to their records, she came knocking. I made her wait. It was only when she was pounding on my door, begging me please and apologizing for everything she'd said about the Beatles, that I let her in.
She always wanted to listen to the same song over and over again. Usually it was "If I Fell." She loved that song. She'd try to sing along with it, but her voice would crack every time she came to the bridge: And I would be sad if our new love was in vain.
There was one Saturday morning when she didn't knock on my door. I waited for her for a while. Finally, I went looking for her. I found her in her bedroom, in bed with my brother. He was lying on top of her. They were both naked.
I don't know what was happening between the two of them that morning. I don't know if my brother was molesting my sister; I don't know if it's even possible for a 9-year-old to molest a 6-year-old. All I know is that I felt left out. I felt like my brother had taken my sister away from me.
The relationship between my brother and sister would become even more troubling three years later, when my father died, only a day after being diagnosed with leukemia. The cancer had been spreading inside him for years, completely undetected. It was devastating for all of us, but it was particularly devastating for my sister. She had always been a daddy's girl.
After my father died, my brother spent entire nights in my sister's bedroom. I'd see him leaving her bedroom in the morning and I'd ask him what he was doing, and he'd tell me he'd had a bad dream and he didn't want to be alone. When I told my mother, she told me to mind my own business. She had gone from being a full-time housewife to a full-time secretary at a company that made nail polish. She was about to lose custody of my brother for various crimes he'd been committing shoplifting, motor-vehicle theft, possession and sale of drugs and she simply couldn't concentrate on anything else.
Eventually, my brother was designated a ward of the court and placed in a juvenile detention center. I thought maybe now my sister would get some of the attention he had been siphoning off for so many years. And she did by imitating him. She dropped out of school, started doing coke and drinking, and developed a major case of bulimia. To support her habits, she stole cash and jewelry from my mother. She ran up my mother's credit cards and wrote checks on her accounts.
I was over at a friend's house one night during my senior year in high school when I got a phone call from my mother.
"Bobby," she said. "It's your sister. I think she was at the bowling alley. Maybe someone bought her a drink. I don't know."
My mother started crying.

At the Roundtable, I am hoping that there will be others that will also want to bring mustards of their making for all to sample. >>> Oh! I'm sorry, when you said this was for Roundtable, I thought you were talking about some other SCA event. "Roundtable" is not an uncommon name for various events. Although we had talked about your mustard class at Pennsic, I didn't connect the two until now. Your last message was the one where you were talking about *quarts* of mustard! What you can do to tremendously extend the storage time of your meats would be to freeze them at home and bring them from home in that state. In an ice chest, it will take them several days to just thaw out and by adding occasional ice they should stay safe. Still, I now realize that you aren't trying to provide a meal for an event or even something like a luncheon. The mustard(s) is really meant to be the star of the show, not the meat or whatever. Those are really just the carriers or the counterpoints. So the need to actually have meat is reduced. <<< Margaret...Thanks for the idea!!! I have no idea why I didn't think of that...and there is a pretzel recipe I want to try....for pretzel bites :) >>> I'm glad Margaret spoke up on this. It was something I meant to suggest but forgot to. Is this a period pretzel recipe that you have? If so... I want! I want! Hand it over! Err, please? I do have this file on pretzels and it includes lots of links to things like pictures of pretzels being sold on street corners. But I have this, and claims from several pretzel makers that their pretzels go back to period, I don't have any actual recipes. And nothing that says that although the things in the period illustrations look like today's pretzels, that they are indeed taste anything similar. Does anyone have a provably period pretzel recipe?

Big Ten Report: Don't believe the hype about Ohio State QB Kenny Guiton
BY SETH GRUEN email@example.com | @SethGruen September 22, 2013 12:20AM
Kenny Guiton threw six TD passes in the first half Saturday. | Getty Images

Updated: October 23, 2013 6:49AM
Kenny Guiton should come with some kind of disclaimer.
Warning: He might not be what he appears.
The senior quarterback has been on his honeymoon with the Buckeyes for the last three weeks. Since taking over for the injured Braxton Miller on the first drive of Ohio State's eventual 42-7 victory over San Diego State on Sept. 7, Guiton has totaled 643 yards passing and 12 touchdowns.
But that has come against the Aztecs, California and Florida A&M. Adversity comes in small doses against those teams.
So halt the campaign to make Guiton the starter or even for the senior to share snaps with Miller.
There's a reason Guiton didn't begin the season as the starter and has rarely seen the field throughout his career at Ohio State. In fact, Guiton had done so little before this season that the Buckeyes had to resort to hyperbole for his bio on the team's website:
"Kenny Guiton is a senior leader on this football team ... he leads in the classroom, weight room, film room, locker room and on the playing field."
Glad to know Guiton is there to remind his teammates to rack the weights when they're finished. It's as much an indicator as the last three games in forecasting how Guiton will play when Ohio State's conference season begins next week.
Coach Urban Meyer has to be trusted (I can't believe I just wrote that) when it comes to evaluating his personnel. He knows his players better than anyone and has to have had reasons for starting Miller over Guiton.
Where has this level of play been in practice against an Ohio State defense much more talented than any Guiton has faced this year?
Guiton's latest exploits against an FBS bottom-feeder included six touchdown passes in the first half of Ohio State's 76-0 victory over Florida A&M. But most of the teams in the Big Ten have backups who probably could perform at that level against the Rattlers.
Give Guiton an incomplete on the season so far. His midterm exam will come Saturday against Wisconsin, his first chance to prove the nonconference season wasn't deceiving.
Week 4 STARS
RB Melvin Gordon, Wisconsin
He ran 16 times for 147 yards and three touchdowns, averaging 9.2 yards per carry. The sophomore has run for at least 140 yards in all four games this season. Saturday was the first time his yards per carry dipped below double-digits.
QB Mitch Leidner, Minnesota
The freshman signal-caller carried the ball 24 times for 151 yards and four touchdowns. He completed 5 of 12 passes for only 71 yards.
DB B.J. Lowery, Iowa
The senior returned two interceptions for touchdowns in the Hawkeyes' win over Western Michigan. The two returns totaled 48 yards.
The Big Ten is a smashmouth conference rooted in defense. And in the first conference game of 2013, Wisconsin gave Purdue an object lesson.
The Boilermakers have scored more than 14 points only once, and they managed only 180 yards against Wisconsin. Facing early deficits, Purdue has been forced to pass the ball more, particularly in the second half.
But its inability to establish the run has allowed teams to drop more into coverage, making it more difficult on quarterback Rob Henry. He threw for only 135 yards Saturday and didn't complete a single pass of 20 yards.
Ohio State running back Carlos Hyde returned to the field after serving a three-game suspension for an incident at a bar, but he didn't see much action.
Hyde, the presumed starter before the season, carried the ball five times for 41 yards. He also had a one-yard touchdown catch.
Meanwhile, freshman running back Ezekiel Elliott had a big game, running the ball 14 times for 162 yards and two touchdowns.
Regardless, Hyde is sure to have a big role in the Buckeyes' game plan for Wisconsin next week. Ohio State will want to use the running game to keep the ball away from a Wisconsin offense that has had the most potent rushing attack in the Big Ten.
After the first quarter of Nebraska's game against South Dakota State, it appeared that the turmoil caused by Bo Pelini's comments and QB Taylor Martinez's absence had a serious effect on the Huskers.
Nebraska trailed its FCS opponent 17-14, but the Huskers responded well — even the defense — proving, at least in the minds of the players, that they had gotten past the hubbub surrounding their coach. Nebraska outscored South Dakota State 45-3 the rest of the way.
With Martinez out, Nebraska still managed 645 yards of offense. Running back Ameer Abdullah carried the ball 15 times for 131 yards and a touchdown. Defensively, the Huskers forced three turnovers.
388 — Wisconsin's rushing yards. In all three of their victories this season, the Badgers have run for more than 300 yards.
115 — Michigan State's penalty yards against Notre Dame. The Spartans committed 10 penalties.
3 — Third-down conversions allowed by Penn State. That is largely credited to its run defense, which allowed 56 yards and made third-down conversions less manageable.
"It's a new year. Our big thing is just laying one brick at a time, and every game is a new brick, every practice is a new brick. We're just trying to build that foundation that Coach [Jerry] Kill is trying to build here.'' —Aaron Hill, Minnesota linebacker

All-in-all, it didn't end up so bad after all. Nearly two weeks ago, Adam Clanton was fired from his position at 1560 AM as the station shuffled its lineup yet again. Clanton had only been on the air with broadcast partner John Wessling for a few months when the hammer fell. Wessling has been fairly ... More >>
One of the arguments against expansion in pro sports leagues is that it dilutes the talent pool. There are enough great players to fill out the lineups for 30 teams, but are there enough for 32? It's an important factor to consider. On Monday, 1560 KGOW fired Adam Clanton and John Wessling, hosts o ... More >>

It's been a long time coming for Adam Wexler, co-host of the Big Show mornings on 790 AM.

I've been listening to sports radio in the city of Houston a very long time. Too long, probably.

I disagree. I used to play PC games but it was such a pain making sure I'd got the right drivers, the right soundcard/graphics card I gave up. In the end I bought a PS1 and haven't looked back.
If you have regular access to a TV then consoles are far more convienient and cheaper.
Load of rubbish
If I want to squint at a screen while on the train and play tetris then fine - mobile gaming has come a long way the last few years. If I want to blast away play COD for a couple of hours then I think I'll stick with my XBox thanks.
As I think has been mentioned before - I don't remember portable DVD players wiping out the DVD/TV market, so why should mobiles wipeout big screen gaming?

Judge: Apple must run ads saying Samsung DIDN'T copy the iPad

Legally it makes as much sense.
Google now gets 250k copyright takedown requests EACH WEEK
Re: From the other point of view.
Prostitution still requires advertising - even if it's someone standing on a street corner winking at people walking by. And that was my point if you take ALL advertising avenues away, then the business disappears.
Also, as far as I'm aware - and I have gone through this process with my own site, google don't simply change their search results, they ask for the content to be removed. As long as google check that it is content theft I really can't see what people could possibly be whining about.
Re: From the other point of view.
Somewhat confused by the thumbs down on these posts.
I can only assume that some people think stealing content is acceptable.
Re: From the other point of view.
Not sure I get your point - The copyright holder has to inform google and google take action. I've had to do this myself and google acted quickly.
In the past I've tried directly asking for stolen content to be taken down and it just doesn't work. Contacting the website hosting company doesn't help either.
I think google do a good job here.
As to your prostitution example, its rubbish. If you take away every means of advertising a service then the service with wither away. On the web the whole point of stealing content is to build sites and make money on advertising - if google won't let you show in the search results then you are utterly wasting your time.

What this facebook exec is suggesting destroys the entire integrity of facebook as an advertising medium. She should be sacked as an example before the advertisers begin to walk.

Re: why?
One thing that stops me buying an iPad or android pad is that I don't want another device I have to keep synced, carry a charger for etc.
I need a PC for apps like lightroom and dreamweaver so can't survive with just a tablet, but I really want to start buying all my magazines and books in 'e-form', and reading on a widescreen is rubbish. So as to your non existing demographic - its got at least one person in it.

Re: Game Devs must be laughing
Not really a fair comparison comparing the second hand car market to pre-owned games.
When I go into Game and try to buy a new copy of a game for £40 and get offered a pre-owned instead for £37 what do you think is happening? Do you think this practice is helping the development of bigger and better games?
It's fair enough buying preowned games for a fiver or so when they're a couple of years old or whatever, but when game allow you to pre-order pre-owned games don't you think they're taking the piss?
Or perhaps you'd rather all the devs went bust - then you wouldn't have to buy any EA games, or any one elses either - but as long as the guys who own GAME have filled their boots - who cares.
Game Devs must be laughing
Game deserve this completely.
Are the supply issues really to do with cashflow? Or is this down to EA being pissed at Games determination to sell each copy of a game multiple times and rip off the devs?
Good riddance to their nasty business practices.
Microsoft mulls touchscreen controller for next-gen Xbox
Let Controllers control
The current XBox Controller is a great piece of kit - comfortable for long periods of time and not too heavy or too light. I really don't want 90% of games to be handicapped by a controller that is designed specifically to allow functionality for a minority of games.

Lord British: Games consoles 'fundamentally doomed'

"18-rated "games" ARE for kids. Why would an adult want an 18-rated game? If I want gratuitious violence - which I don't! - I can watch a movie; if I want pornography, I can watch a porn video."
Well you are free to do whatever you want, but why are your choices the only valid ones?
If I want gratutitous violence, then maybe i find a game more interactive than a movie. A bit like sex with a real person rather than porn.
Once you start a post basically saying that everyone should think the same way as you, do you think anyone is going to give a damn about what the rest of your post says?
And by the way, capitalizing WAR SIMULATOR doesn't make people hide behind the sofa either.
express "deep concern" about how videogame Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 allows players to "engage in gratuitous acts of violence against members of the public" -
Err, no it doesn't. The 'members of the public' in games are not real. In fact if instead of playing computer games we all went outside then we would have much more opportunity to engage in gratuitous acts of violence against members of the public.
But then when do people like vaz worry about real, tangiable things?

Sony: all new PS3 titles will require PSN Pass for online play
Good for Sony
Personally I'm really sick of the second hand game market. Just a couple of days ago I brought a nice fresh copy of Gears 3 in game for 39.99 only for the spotty oik to tell me I could have a second hand one for 37.99.
The thing is, I'd rather most of the money went to the company who made the game so maybe they might invest some of it in making something else I'd like to play, rather than going into the pocket of a money grabbing leech of an organization.
Surely not
unless you've got 4 PS3!
and the downside ...
is that as a gamer the arms race between Sony/Microsoft/Nintendo is actually a GOOD things. As an XBox owner I want sony to bring it on and force microsoft to bring out the best games they can!

But in all honesty, who gives a shit?
I guess you'd like to see sony wipe out microsoft and nintendo which is about the worst thing that could possibly happen from a consumers point of view. Or hadn't you thought of that?
Seems unlikely to me
Surely both PS3 and XBox360 sales will stay fairly flat or decline as rumours of the next generation begin to take hold. As to the new wii, that looks like a real gamble with that strange controller and I wouldn't be surprised if its own sales are low due to people waiting to see what sony and microsoft do this time around.
Maybe they didn't add it because ...
1) Changing specs would piss off current customers,
2) Blu-Ray happens to belong to Sony. I may be wrong, but do you think sony would licence the tech to microsoft to compete directly with the PS3?
By guessing ...
you mean interpretting the statistics in whichever ways allows you (the sad Sony Fanboy) to feel superior about your purchase.

Old Phil was always a bit of a knob with his statements while at sony during the Xbox360/PS3 early promotional days.

I run a couple of sites with around 330 pages between them, except for 2 pages on each site, every page shows in my stats as a landing page and is searchable. Do you think this is an uncommon model?

Blu-ray sales to overtake DVD... next year
@SteveBalmer - Why the rage?
Under my TV there is a sony blu-ray player sat neatly above my XBox360, and do you know what? I can leave them there all day and all night without the smallest of arguments or fights.
Even after I turn the lights out, they manage to co-exist. Bizarre isn't it?
I assume you feel you're fighting for Sony to win the console war. I, and many others, don't wish you luck. Have you thought about what would happen to the quality of games on your beloved console if Microsoft and Nintendo took their ball and went home?
As a consumer of games I hope the war continues for a long time...
Has Steve Jobs killed the consumer hard disk industry?
Wrong way around
A few years back loads of people had PCs and had almost no data on them at all. Now days people use more and more space - even AVERAGE users as you call them. I mean, why specify dSLRs specifically? Do other digital cameras not require hard disk space?
How many pc users do you think there are who don't fill their hard drives with photos, videos, and music these days? Data consumption and storage is rising fast not dropping.
For most people the cloud may be a handy way to share data but for day to day storage? Forget it. The future of personal storage is surely all about size. Once I can get a memory stick with 1tb for £10, why the hell would I want to pay to store my data on someone elses drive?

Steve, Please go back to pleasuring yourself with your PS3.
Remember the Xbox 1?
Yes I agree, that controller seems a tad large. Perhaps they should provide a seperate smaller one for games that don't take advantage of the screen.
I remember microsoft supplying japan with a different controller for the xbox so that could hold them in their tiny little hands. You think nintendo would know better.

just beautiful and fresh, inside-outl!!
I like the hidden rear door handle and the piano black interior details.
Coupled with traditional Renault ride and comfort should be a very good choice.
I'll definately go for a test drive and then see how it goes.
This red color with the black details is also very nice.
Yikes - that interior is a bit loud.
A real shame there's no 3 door version as that might be a pretty car - like a mini scirocco

Pa. troopers hope technology cracks '68 murder case


text: HISTORY OF FLIGHTOn August 2, 1999, between 2020 and 0004 on August 3rd, mountain daylight time, a Cessna 172P, N6497K, operated by Robertson Aviation, Jenks, Oklahoma, was destroyed when it collided with terrain near Grants, New Mexico, while on a cross-country flight from Hawthorne, California, to Tulsa, Oklahoma. The private certificated, instrument rated, pilot, who was the sole occupant, received fatal injuries. The flight was operating under Title 14 CFR Part 91 and no flight plan was filed. Instrument meteorological conditions prevailed in the area where the accident occurred.According to documents provided by the Federal Aviation Administration, the pilot's family reported the aircraft overdue at its destination on August 4th. An alert notice (ALNOT) was issued and subsequently, a search was begun for the aircraft in the area around Winslow (INW), Arizona, which was the last confirmed location of the aircraft.Reconstruction of pertinent portions of the flight provided information that the pilot contacted the Flagstaff airport control tower at 1854 and reported he was 9 miles southwest of the airport inbound for landing. The aircraft landed at 1901 and taxied to parking. Following fueling of the aircraft, the pilot called Flagstaff ground control at 1934 for taxi. He was told to taxi to runway 21 for departure. At 1938, the aircraft took off, made a left turnout, and departed the area eastbound.The pilot contacted Albuquerque Air Route Traffic Control Center (ABQ ARTCC) at 1949 and stated he was 12 miles east of Flagstaff at 9,500 feet. He requested flight following for a flight to Double Eagle (AEG) Airport in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The controller obtained the necessary information from the pilot to set up flight following and assigned a transponder beacon code of 0752. The controller established radar contact, issued the INW altimeter setting and advised the pilot that at 9,500 feet the aircraft would have intermittent radar contact.At 1952, the controller advised the pilot that radar contact was lost and requested the pilot report over or abeam INW. The pilot acknowledged this instruction, and at 2006 the pilot reported the flight was abeam INW. The controller asked the pilot to "IDENT," followed by the information, at 2008, that radar contact was still not established and that the controller would keep the pilot advised. The pilot acknowledged this information.Between 2003 and 2017, several primary (non beacon radar returns) were recorded, but the identity of the targets could not be confirmed without a beacon code. At 2017, a beacon return showing the aircraft to be at 9,300 feet and heading eastbound was recorded. One minute later, at 2018, a beacon return provided information that the aircraft was in a right descending turn and was passing through 9,000 feet. Several more beacon codes were received and showed the aircraft in a continuing descending right turn. The last beacon code from the aircraft was received at 2019 and gave the aircraft altitude as 8,500 feet on a westbound heading. At 2020, a primary target return was recorded along the projected aircraft track, which appeared to be proceeding towards the INW aircraft navigation aid. No further radar targets were recorded.The controller attempted several radio contacts with the pilot but received no reply. At 2035, the controller removed the flight following strips from his board.No further radio or radar contacts with the aircraft occurred. On August 11, 1999, about 1830, the New Mexico State Police found the aircraft near Grants, New Mexico, on Mount Taylor, at the 10,600 foot level. The state police aircraft was in the area on another matter and was alerted by a weak emergency locator transmitter (ELT) signal. Mount Taylor is approximately 161 miles from the point, near Winslow, where radar and communications contact was lost. The route and flight time from the last confirmed radar target of the aircraft to the location of the aircraft was not established PERSONNEL INFORMATIONAccording to Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) airmen records, the pilot was 20 years old. He held a private pilot certificate with a rating in aircraft single engine land issued on October 22, 1998. As of the date of inquiry, August 6, 1999, the FAA had no records concerning the pilot holding an instrument rating. However, documentation was found in the pilot's logbook and on documents in the pilot's personal effects found in the aircraft, which provided evidence that an instrument rating in airplanes was earned on July 13, 1999.The pilot held a first class medical certificate issued on June 6, 1999, with the restriction that he wear corrective lenses.A review of the pilot logbook provided the following information:First logged instructional flight - October 20, 1997, in a Cessna 172.Private pilot certificate practical test - October 22, 1998, in a Cessna 172. Total flight time when exam was given, 21 hours.Instrument airplane practical test - July 13, 1999, in a Cessna 172. Total flight time when exam was given, 111 hours.According to the pilot's logbook, at the time of the accident, the pilot had logged 213 total pilot hours, all of which was in Cessna 172 aircraft. He had 71 hours of cross-country flight time, 206 hours flight experience in daylight and 7 hours at night. His instrument experience was 3 hours actual, and 32 hours simulated. His pilot in command experience was 147 hours and he had 159 hours of dual instructional flight time. AIRCRAFT INFORMATIONThe aircraft was a 1981 Cessna 172P, serial number 17274203. A Lycoming O-320-D2J engine, serial number RL-18587-39A, rated at 160 brake horsepower at sea level on a standard day powered it. The propeller was a McCauley DTM7557M1 75 inch, 2-bladed, fixed pitch aluminum alloy propeller, serial number 82422.The aircraft had a seating capacity for 4 people and was equipped with dual flight controls. Maximum certificated gross weight for takeoff/landing was 2,400 pounds. The service ceiling was 13,000 feet above mean sea level and the aircraft's endurance (equipped with 40 usable gallon fuel tanks) ranged from 3.8 hours to 5.6 hours depending on the operating method and environment. Maximum range according to the flight manual is 520 miles. Average endurance for the operating conditions used was calculated to be 4.5 hours. METEOROLOGICAL INFORMATION (temperatures are in degrees Fahrenheit, distances in statute miles, and altitudes are in feet)The closest reporting station to the accident was located at Albuquerque. Prior to the accident, the 2056 observation was wind from 330 degrees at 12 knots; visibility 10 miles; thunderstorm; ceiling 4,100 broken cumulonimbus clouds; 6,000 foot overcast skies; temperature 64; dew point 63; altimeter 30.31 inches of mercury (hg). Remarks - wind shift at 25; thunderstorm began at 44; rain began at 36, ended at 46; sea level pressure 1018.9 hectopascals; thunderstorm, frequent lightning in cloud and cloud to ground northwest, little movement; less than one-hundredth of an inch of precipitation fell since last hour; a trace of precipitation has fallen; temperature 64, dew point 62; a steady increase of 2.3 hectopascals.The conditions near the calculated time of the accident taken at Albuquerque, provided by a 2156 observation was wind 360 at 3 knots; visibility 10 miles; thunderstorm, light rain; ceiling 6,500 broken cumulonimbus clouds, 8,500 overcast skies; temperature 66, dew point 62; altimeter 30.33 hg. Remarks - rain began at 26; sea level pressure 1019.0; thunderstorm, occasional lightning in clouds west through northwest, little movement; less than one hundredth of an inch of precipitation fell since last hour; temperature 67, dew point 67.At 2232, the wind was calm; visibility 5 miles; thunderstorm, rain, mist; ceiling 2,100 broken cumulonimbus clouds, 7,000 overcast, temperature 66, dew point 63, altimeter 30.34 hg. Remarks - thunderstorm, occasional lightning in clouds west through northwest, little movement; seven hundredths of an inch of precipitation fell since last hour. The radar summary chart for 2135 indicated the western half of New Mexico was almost completely covered with thunderstorms.At 2003, an aircraft hazardous weather information Convective SIGMET Three West for Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas was issued over the air traffic control frequency that the accident aircraft was using. According to the U. S.

The slope was approximately 40 degrees and was covered with a dense pine forest with trees ranging to about 80 feet in height. Witness marks found during the on scene examination of the accident site provided evidence the aircraft impacted trees parallel to the slope, in a wings level attitude and created a track 230 feet in length oriented on a heading of 259 degrees. First contact was made with the right wing and right main landing gear, which separated from the aircraft. The right horizontal stabilizer and elevator also separated during initial impact and remained lodged in the trees approximately 60 feet above ground level. The rest of the aircraft rotated to the right and went between two trees, which separated the cabin overhead and center wing section. The left wing also separated and was located approximately 20 feet from the main wreckage.The engine remained attached and exhibited impact related damage to cylinders and accessories. The engine was removed for transport of the wreckage.The propeller separated during impact and was found on the uphill side of the wreckage near the nose portion of the aircraft. One of the propeller blades was bent aft and exhibited chordwise scratches and paint removal. The other blade was bent aft at mid span and forward approximately 8 inches inboard from the blade tip. This blade also exhibited chordwise scratches and gouges. Several tree branches were found with smooth angular cuts across their diameter.Additional specific documentation at the accident site is as follows: All flight control surfaces were accounted for. The flaps were in the up position and verified by the right flap actuator position. Elevator trim could not be verified due to jackscrew damage. The pilot's seat was separated from the track and emergency personnel had cut the seat belt. The shoulder harness remained attached to the cabin mount. The fuel selector was in "both." The gascolator screen was observed clean and free of contaminates. Both fuel tanks were compromised and no fuel was present. The altimeter was a 2-pointer type and both needles were separated. The Kolsman window had a setting of 30.24. The cabin heat switch was on. The emergency locator transmitter (ELT) was intact but the antenna was separated. The battery due date was July 1999.

Another dollar store is slated to open in downtown Chattanooga with its owner banking on potential plans to breathe new life into M.L. King Boulevard along with the growing UTC campus.
"We're looking at the development of the MLK area. A lot of new business should be coming in," said Mike Hayes, who will own the store going into the Park Town @ 301 Building at MLK and Houston Street.
Hayes said he's hopeful of a late June opening in the 3,100 square feet he's leasing on the ground floor of the building, formerly known as Renaissance Square.
The EPB contractor said he's investing about $50,000 in the new business, which he says will be open every day from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Hayes said the venture will be an independent dollar store not affiliated with companies such as Family Dollar or Dollar General.
Troy Potter, who owns the two-story building, said Hayes is taking about a third of the leasable space on the ground floor.
"It's a good fit," he said, adding he's hopeful of leasing the rest of the space soon. The top floor remains residential space.
Potter said he bought the building after Regions Bank repossessed the $3 million mixed-use development from the 28th Legislative District Community Development Corp.
He said MLK has potential, and he foresees more businesses moving into the area.
"I see UTC growing in that direction," Potter added.
Hayes said he will employ six people in the business.
In 2011, Regions took over the building from the 28th Legislative District Community Development Corp. The group filed for relief under bankruptcy protection in August 2010 after it failed to sell any of the commercial space in the structure and was unable to pay back much of the project cost, including a $1.2 million loan from Regions.
Mike Pare, the deputy Business editor at the Chattanooga Times Free Press, has worked at the paper for 27 years. In addition to editing, Mike also writes Business stories and covers Volkswagen, economic development and manufacturing in Chattanooga and the surrounding area. In the past he also has covered higher education.

Google Chrome Extension Gallery treads lightly on copyright issues
Unlike Mozilla's add-on site for Firefox, it appears as though things are going to run in a slightly more Apple-esque fashion.
Developer Deepesh Agarwal submitted a Chrome port of his Firefox add-on Easy YouTube Downloader. Google declined to approve the extension, saying "Unfortunately, there are a few cases where legal restrictions or contractual obligations prevent us from hosting an extension(*). One of those cases is with certain kinds of video downloaders..."
That policy is clearly spelled out in the TOS, of course:
Hey, this is Google's baby, after all, so I'm not really surprised they don't plan to publicly exhibit extensions designed to play Google-hosted content offline (and beyond the reach of AdSense and Analytics). On top of that, Google has been careful of late when it comes to playing nice with rights holders.4.4.1 You agree that you will not engage in any activity with the Gallery, including the development or publication of Products or other materials, that [...] enables the unauthorized download of streaming content or media.
And don't forget, .crx files can be installed from any old website. Chromeextensions.org has been up for months and will no doubt be the place to go for non-sanctioned extensions. Like video downloaders.

The Nürburgring is officially broke. According to various German sources, the only chance the owners of the 'Ring have to fend off bankruptcy is if the track gets 13 million euros of new life injected into it. Problem is, state officials have said it's not going to happen.
In other words, the Nürburgring will go into administration and its future will at least in part be decided in court. Also up for debate will be the legality of 524 million euros worth of funding that the state has already pumped into the track, an amusement park with hotels and a shopping mall that make up the local attraction.
Reports indicate that the rest of 2012 will proceed as planned at the 'Ring. After that, it's anybody's guess what will happen to the famous German racetrack.

- You need a clean container to mix in the ingredients.I used a cupcake baking cup,lol.My boyfriend loves baking.I'm a lucky girl aren't I? :)
- A spatula/lip brush to mix the ingredients in(a toothpick will do just fine).
- A thick cream.I'm using Vaseline's Total Moisture 24 hr moisturising cream.You may use whatever thick cream you have.But it should not be runny and greasy.
- Pigments.For this you may use eyeshadows or blush in the choice of your colour.I have pink blushes so i used them.
- Foundation/Base.This will help the colours pop and last long.I used the Base of my Lotus Perfect tint foundation.
|Get your stuff ready
|Maybelline blush-Berry Sorbet
|Lotus foundation base
- Transfer the amount of cream you desire in to the container.
- Scrape the blush with the back of a spoon and transfer it into the container.You may keep adding till you get the intensity of colour you desire.You may add lipstick scrapings too.I mostly used my Maybelline blush in Berry Sorbet with a dash of my Clinique blush in Smoldering Plum.
- Mix the contents well.
- Add a pea sized amount of makeup base into it.I used Lotus My Perfect Tint foundation.It has two tubes consisting of a makeup base,and the other holds the Tint.
- Mix well.
- Extra- If you are a glitter person,you may add a dash of shimmery eyeshadow into it.Don't over do it,or you'll end up looking like a disco ball.My Maybelline blush already had shimmers in it,so i skipped this step.
|Mix it up!

Jackson, Miss. A federal judge has given the state until July 17 to respond formally to a lawsuit that challenges conditions at the East Mississippi Correctional Facility at Lost Gap.
The Mississippi Department of Corrections says it's working with Management & Training Corporation, operators of EMCF, to respond to the lawsuit that alleges barbaric conditions at the prison. MTC is not named in the lawsuit.
MDOC says its policy is to let the facts play out in court. However, it says the allegations made against MDOC officials are "unfairly damaging to its commitment to provide efficient and effective offender custody, care, control and treatment consistent with sound correctional principles and constitutional practices."
In a news release, the department says it has responded accordingly whenever it has been made aware of problems.
"MDOC has monitors at all of its prisons, including EMCF," said Corrections Commissioner Christopher Epps. "MDOC was not satisfied with EMCF's previous operator, The GEO Group Inc., and the plaintiffs in the recent lawsuit agreed with the decision to go with a new operator. The plaintiffs indicated they were happy when MTC was hired. Now they indicate they want the current operator fired. We believe that MTC is doing a good job, and are confident the court will agree."
MDOC says it does not knowingly ignore informed and sound requests for solutions and state prison in itself can be considered barbaric.
Epps said MDOC has shown its willingness to listen to concerns and do what's right by settling previous issues raised by the American Civil Liberties Union and the Southern Poverty Law Center.
The prison has a capacity of 1,362 inmates.
