Festival of Sails, organised by Royal Geelong Yacht Club, is to be held from Thursday 23rd until Monday 27th January 2014. A box of all-sorts, from Adams 10s to Matt Allen's new glamour Carkeek 60, will be slotted into their respective divisions when the impressive Racing Series fleet contest Victoria's 2014 Festival of Sails.
Black Betty - Festival of Sails
For the 2013 edition, the IRC fleet missed the traditional Festival opener, the passage race from Williamstown to Geelong, instead challenging for the Audi IRC Australian Championship on Corio Bay, Geelong.
In 2014, the larger fleet, minus the Melges 24s, sports boats, Sydney 38s and Flying 15s, will combine once again, on Friday January 24, for the colourful mass start off Melbourne at 9.30am. This will again be the first event of the Racing Series division's eight race Festival series, which will also incorporate the Victorian IRC and AMS Championships.
Among the 40-footers on the entry list for the popular Australia Day weekend regatta will be two first-timers. One is a few years old and about to embark on its first event outside Western Australia. The other is based on the opposite side of Port Phillip to Geelong and still has that new boat smell having only hit the water for the first time, last Friday.
Many racing entries fly the host or nearby yacht club burgee, so it's a short hop out to the starting stalls each day on Geelong's Corio Bay. Gary McNally and partner in the logistical challenge, Brian McMasters, are trucking the GP42 Black Betty with an escort almost 3,500 kilometres across the Nullarbor Plain from Perth to the Festival of Sails for their first foray into interstate competition.
Black Betty, from the Royal Freshwater Bay Yacht Club in Perth, will need an extendable semi-trailer and escort for the six day journey, which could mark the start of an extensive eastern seaboard campaign.
'If all goes well the Festival of Sails could be the first in an extended campaign which would see us truck the boat back to Perth after the Festival for Geographe Race Week, then back across to the east coast for next April's Audi IRC Australian Championship at Newcastle and up to the Whitsundays for Audi Hamilton Island Race Week in August,' said McNally.
'Next year we'll maybe turn Black Betty into an oversized trailer sailer,' he laughed.
A company director who made his money installing mining camps, McNally bought the former TP42 in 2010 off the Med Cup circuit and optimised it for IRC handicap, turning it into a GP42. Conditions on the west coast and depth of the Swan River suit the boat's keel depth and it's proven an all-rounder with some worthy results. Now McMasters and McNally want to benchmark it against the strong Victorian and NSW fleets.
Melbourne based businessman and Yachting Australia board member, Phil Coombs, has registered his 42-footer for the Festival of Sails. His is an HH42 called Simply Fun, a joint venture between Hudson Marine in China and Hakes Marine in New Zealand. The new Judel Vrolijk design was built in China, the third hull off the production line, and launched by Coombs and wife Cheryl last Friday.
'We had our first test sail last Saturday and it was awesome, very impressive,' said Coombs, both a Mornington Yacht Club and Sandringham Yacht Club member. 'The boat said 'Merry Christmas to us', to me and my wife.'
Purpose built as an IRC performer with offshore capabilities, Coombs says Simply Fun is capable of taking on a Rolex Sydney Hobart and performing on handicap at the major regattas with a club crew pulling the ropes.
Since selling his DK46 Dekadence three years ago, Coombs has been chilling out in cruising mode aboard his Beneteau First 50. Now he's back with a new high performance and high fun factor race toy structured around sailing with mates.
'We are aiming to put some fun back into keelboat racing with this new boat. It's essentially a shrunken TP52 with all the latest technology. I think this will be the next generation of IRC boat in the 40-foot range,' Coombs said.
At least half of his Dekadence crew have returned to make up the required 9-11 bodies needed to run the boat, 'that's pretty cool' admits the owner.
Latest Racing Series entry list
The regular entry fee for the 2014 Festival of sails, conducted by the Royal Geelong Yacht Club, applies to January 10th and a late entry fee of $100 will apply after thereafter.
In 2014 the event will host four Australian Championship events; the Melges 24 Australian Open Nationals, the Australian Teams Racing Championship, the Beneteau First Nationals and the Sydney 38 One Design Australian Championships.
From Tuesday 21st to Monday 27th January an extensive sailing program will cater for all levels, with 17 different classes open to keelboats and multihulls from Australia and overseas.
The event will conclude Monday 27th, the Australia Day public holiday, with the trophy presentations and the final Shoreside Festival program of activities.

in New York City.
the "Director's Diary" from
the original shooting in Israel thru the Israeli premiere of
the film.
Nord's article on Why
Being Jewish is Punk Rock
Oy Oy Gevalt: Punks Practice Judaism With Musical Rebellion
by Michael Croland
JE article with the best headline ever: Shira
is a Punk Rocker
stage diving, fists flying. Homemade band t-shirts, circle pits,
singalongs. These scenes are not unfamiliar; They have flooded
pop culture imagery for over 25 years. The punk rock ethos gains
new relevance in Israel when band members' choices are often
between picking up a guitar or picking up a gun.
Echo introduces us to some of the colorful characters of the little-known
Israeli punk scene, and gives us insights into their lives through interviews,
verite' scenes, and live musical footage. The young people in these
bands represent the future of this important region, and their views
are not those usually portrayed by the mainstream media.
topic that figures greatly in these young punks' lives is the decision
of whether or not to fulfill their mandatory military service. One of
the only ways to avoid service is to undergo evaluation by the Military
Psychiatrist and be legally deemed psychotic. This is the route that
many punks have decided to take. The implications of this decision are
thoughtfully covered in the documentary, along with topics ranging from
the Israeli Religious Right, to suicide bombings and the future of the
Palestinian-Israeli conflict.
Jericho's Echo displays a positive message by showing the perseverance
of these relative outcasts to make their art and make changes in society
despite the pressures to conform and the difficulties of living in a
seemingly un-ending war zone.

UNC Global Women's Health
UNC Global Women's Health (GWH) is a unique group of clinicians, researchers, and public health professionals working to improve the health of women in the world's poorest countries. Driven by outcomes and intensely practical, the majority of our diverse staff live full-time in Africa. We are not afraid to go after the big problems (e.g., maternal mortality, AIDS in women and children, cervical cancer, obstetric fistula), and we believe big problems can be solved. We believe firmly that real solutions come only by working side-by-side with our African partners. Collectively, we have raised over $200 million in funding for our work from the US government and private foundation sources. Our ultimate purpose is to make discoveries and implement programs that will substantially and measurably improve the health of women living in the world's poorest countries.
Our partnerships with Zambia and Malawi have transformed health systems and saved thousands of lives in the process. A sustained investment in our data driven methods is now strongly needed. We see huge gaps in the global women's health knowledgebase and very few organizations that are equipped to address them. Our team includes passionate thinkers and advocates that reflect the diversity of global women's health issues: safe obstetrics, preterm birth, obstetric fistula, family planning, and women's cancers. We want to move quickly, work broadly, and raise the bar for women's health in the world's poorest countries.
We see a future where we continue to work on-the-ground with our African colleagues using data to make discoveries that will substantially and unarguably improve the health of women. Key high-level initiatives defining the future we envision include:
- Transforming the program approach for prevention and screen-and-treat of cervical cancer globally.
- Proving a new concept for infant HIV diagnostics that will save the lives of millions of children
- Exploring the causes of pre-term birth to inform worldwide policy.
- Using output-driven funding processes to collect data and transform how foreign funders finance surgical activity (obstetric fistula, C-section, etc.) in Africa
- Structuring a University-to-University engagement model that builds on our history of collaboration to help more Africans lead high-impact, policy-changing research
- Building African NGO partners that operate at western standards of governance, financial controls and accountability.
- Building long-term relationship between UNC GWH and university partners in Malawi, Zambia and other countries
- Investing in clinical training of both doctors and lower-level providers
- Investing in data and monitoring infrastructure to better understand health outcomes and inform better programs
- Building research capacity in-country and continuing to conduct high-impact, policy-changing research with our partners
- Measurably reducing rates of maternal mortality, stillbirth, and obstetric fistula
- Measurably reducing rates of other poor obstetrical outcomes
- Eliminating cervical cancer
Introducing the 2015 Global Women's Health Fellows
Three new physicians joined the Global Women's Health fellowship in July.
Assessment is first to measure breast and cervical cancer landscape in Zambia
The assessment not only identifies the roadblocks to treatment, but also provides a path to overcoming them.

A Day to Reconsider
First appeared on 01/22/2013. Insights is also available to members via email delivery.
As we in the United States commemorate the fortieth anniversary of the arrival of legal abortion, it is certainly a day to think hard about our priorities and our prayers.
One irony is that so many around the world are focused on what the United States will do about gun control, a problem not even remotely in the same league as abortion. Phil Lawler has noticed the absurdity of the Vatican Press Director's pronouncements on this, especially right now: A Vatican spokesman's misguided statement on gun control.
Another very interesting story in the news is the Lutheran reaction to the idea of a Lutheran Ordinariate, like the Anglican Ordinariate. These ordinariates put ecumenism and its fruits in a whole new light.
The idea was floated by the (relatively) new Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith. Providentially, I was writing an In Depth Analysis on the Prefect even as the story was being posted. Contrary to some bizarre claims, he is doing great so far: Mythbusters: Archbishop Gerhard Ludwig Müller, Prefect of the CDF.... [more content for subscribers]

Peter Tomtlund , pp. 75. DSN/School of Planning and Media Design, 2012.
This study examines on both a general and a
detailed level how personal orientation can be improved in underground pedestrian systems (UPS), making it easier to get direction to one's desired destination. Previous studies have focused on either analyzing certain limited aspects of orientation in other indoor facilities such as hospitals, shopping malls etc., or analyzing from a more general perspective creating concepts of orientation. For this study, a literature review about orientation and UPS in general was combined with questionnaires, observations and surveys conducted at the case study of an intensively used UPS at Xin Jie Kou in Nanjing, China. The outcomes of all used methods were subsequently analyzed both independently and all together. Based on this analysis, a set of general design guidelines was established and these guidelines were concretized and used to make a design proposal for the case study in order to show how the general design guidelines can be applied into reality. Results give that UPS configuration (the basic architectural layout) is most important for benefitting orientation followed by signage, legibility and verbal aid. Results indicate that it would be possible to enhance orientation by systematic application of principles found in literature and explored in investigations of behavior on the site.
Time and resource limitations made it not possible to further evaluate the redesign scheme by confronting citizens with the proposal, or to do a full scale experiment with signage.

>>Mark Kirk Details Stroke Recovery On YouTube
(Chicago, IL) -- U.S. Senator Mark Kirk is walking again. In video posted on "YouTube," Kirk detailed his recovery from a stroke he suffered in January. The Illinois Republican thanked the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago for helping in his recovery. He was released from the rehab center last week. Kirk says he's hoping to be back in Washington, DC, soon and thanked everyone for showing him patience.
>>Emanuel Testifies In Springfield
(Springfield, IL) -- Mayor Rahm Emanuel appears before state lawmakers in Springfield. He told a state House committee yesterday there needs to be pension reform in Illinois or taxes will skyrocket. Saying "the day of reckoning has arrived," the mayor called for changes including an increase in the retirement age to 67.
>>Court Bans Enforcement Of Illinois Eavesdropping Law
(Chicago, IL) -- A federal appeals court bars enforcement of Illinois eavesdropping law, saying it is probably unconstitutional. The controversial law makes it a felony to record audio of any conversation without the consent of all parties,and specifically bans recordings of police officers in public. Critics had feared it could be used to arrest protesters who record police during the May 20-21 NATO summit.
>>Trial Starting In Madison County Heroin Death
(Edwardsville, IL) -- Testimony begins today for the trial of a man accused of supplying the heroin that killed 17-year-old Triad High School senior Shannon Gaddis last year. Taylor W. Kennedy of Troy faces a mandatory prison sentence of six to 30 years if he is found guilty of a drug-induced homicide. He would be required to serve at least 85 percent of the sentence. Gaddis was off school for a snow day in January 2011 when she overdosed at her home in Troy.
>>Tenaska Pulls Coal Gasification Plan
(Springfield, IL) -- Tenaska is giving up on plans to build a coal gasification plant in Taylorville, Illinois. The company has been unsuccessful for several years in trying to get lawmakers to support the plant. Company officials met with lawmakers and other business executives in Springfield yesterday. The new plan is to build a 650-megawatt natural gas plant instead, still on the Taylorville site.
>>Eavesdropping Law Unconstitutional
(Chicago, IL) -- A federal judge has outlawed Illinois' eavesdropping law. The court says it's illegal to prohibit a person from video or audio recording an on-duty police officer because it violates their right to free speech. Right now in Illinois, anyone convicted of either video or audio recording a police officer could face up to 15 years behind bars. Lawmakers are taking steps to reverse the law, but they're meeting resistance from law enforcement agencies across the state.
>>Identity Thieves Targeting Children
(Undated) -- Identity thieves are targeting children more frequently these days but Steve Bernas with the Better Business Bureau in Chicago says there are things parents can do to protect their child. He urges parents to monitor their child's online use and set strict privacy settings on social networking sites. He also says parents should know what school employees have access to their child's social security number, plus they should check their child's credit report once a year. Records show more than 19-thousand cases of identity theft were reported by people under the age of 19 last year.
>>Health Screenings Offered At Farmers' Market
(Springfield, IL) -- Health screenings are being offered at the Illinois Products Farmers' Market on the state fair grounds this year. It's part of a new partnership between the market and the Springfield Clinic.

Marianne Vos backs UCI's Women's Cycling Week
Profile-raising events to culminate with La Course by le Tour de France on Champs-Élysées
Backed by multiple world champion Marianne Vos, the UCI has declared July 20-27 to be Women's Cycling Week. It's the week leading up to La Course, the women's race on the Champs-Élysées on the final day of the Tour de France and will include a programme of events aiming to raise the profile of women's cycling.
The UCI says it intends Women's Cycling Week "to grow the profile of women's cycling at every level via a series of events that will take place throughout the month of July to get more girls and women riding."
Those events include:
Ride to Paris: A group of 25 amateur women cyclists from across the world will ride from Utrecht in the Netherlands to Paris in just four days, arriving on 26 July the day before La Course by le Tour de France. Along the way they will be sharing their experiences on UCI website and social media.
Female elite riders will be setting the pace for women participants in L'Etape du Tour on July 20. In addition, every female rider registered to ride in L'Etape will receive a free 'La Course by Le Tour de France' branded cycling jersey from the UCI (www.letapedutour.com).
Cycling training video company The Sufferfest, which sponsors the women's World Cup series has created a new training film - Halfiseasy - with footage from women's races which will be shown in gyms worldwide.
The UCI is inviting women riders to use Twitter to share their cycling experiences and show how they have pushed their boundaries using the hashtags #owntheroad, #ownthetrail, #ownthejumps, #ownthetrack. Best tweets will be shared on @UCI_cycling and @UCIWomenCycling.
UCI President Brian Cookson will present medals to La Course by le Tour de France podium finishers.
Marianne Vos, a leader of the Le Tour Entier campaign that helped secure the La Course race, current overall leader of the women's Tour of Italy, multiple world champion and widely considered to be the best all-round bike racer since Eddy Merckx, has given her support to Women's Cycling Week.
Vos said: "The sport has grown in the last few years and it is great to celebrate the achievement of women's cycling. During this dedicated week, I especially look forward to La Course and meeting the girls riding #RoadtripParis on the Champ Elysees.
"My dream is to make cycling more accessible to women. I want to take the best from both men's and women's cycling and use this to create a stage from which the dreams of every aspiring cyclist can be launched, whether they are young, old, fellow professionals or future talents."
UCI Vice-president Tracey Gaudry said: "The UCI is determined to maximise recognition of women in cycling as a sport and for participation. We are not alone with this ambition and have embraced that the rise of women's cycling must involve everybody. There's enormous diversity on the Women's Commission with leaders representing women's teams, sponsors, events, media, coaches and athletes. We'll be finalising our strategy at our next meeting in a couple of weeks in Paris, in conjunction with La Course by Le Tour de France.
"Our priorities can be achieved by working with, and supporting the initiatives of cycling stakeholders – such as La Course by le Tour de France by ASO. This outstanding event will showcase the strength, thrill and drama of women's cycling to millions of viewers worldwide."
UCI President Brian Cookson said: "We are entering an historic moment for women's cycling with La Course by Le Tour de France on July 27 which will attract a level of media focus and attention on women's cycling never before seen in the history of the sport. It is critically important that as a sport we embrace this unique opportunity to further shine the light on women's cycling, and get more girls and women riding bikes. This is exactly what the WCW is seeking to achieve.
"Since I became UCI President nine months ago, we have made unprecedented investment in the funding of broadcast packages around the UCI Women Road World Cup. This followed the appointment of Tracey Gaudry as the UCI's first Women Vice-president, and the establishment of the UCI's first Women's Commission. While we still have much to do, I believe that 2014 will be remembered as a breakout year for women's cycling."
I'm very proud to say that my wife and a friend of ours are two of the 25 amateur cyclists that will be doing the Roadtrip Paris from Utrecht that is organized/promoted by Marianne Vos. Based on what I've learnt through this, Marianne really is dedicated to helping to promote women's cycling in many ways, which is awesome.

She is. Great cyclist. Leading the Giro Rosa at the moment and looking good to win it. And another advocate of women's cycling, British ITT champion and also due to ride La Course, Emma Pooley, won the sixth stage yesterday with a dramatic solo breakaway after having a so-so race to date due to mechanicals, breathing problems and a nose bleed in the first stage. All a bit quiet coverage on here amongst everything on the TdF, especially yesterday when it was a double stage win for Lotto-Belisol after Greipel's exploits on Stage 6.

All very admirable stuff from UCI but if they're really serious about improving women's cycling there's two things they can do really easily:
1) Get rid of the rules that limit the distance and days length of women's races (Maximum 6 days, 130km per stage, 100km average daily distance over the race). Currently only Giro Rosa is allowed to be > 6 days
2) Have a serious review of the calendar so they get a coherent season.

Eastland Cafe Restaurant Review: Owners Willy and Yvette Thomas, who also operate Park Café on the other side of the river, have succeeded in gracing East Nashville with this neighborhood restaurant. Start with a local-cheese plate, drawing from creameries not far from Music City. Graduate to a Hereford strip steak, from beef raised in-state, or perhaps pan-seared Gulf shrimp with a coconut-ginger crêpe and basil-cilantro slaw. Do not miss the green chili mac 'n' cheese, offered at both of the owners' restaurants for good reason. For dessert, the fried apple is consistently good, but the blueberry beignets with white chocolate sauce are even better. The wine list offers plenty of seriously silky selections, not many above $50 a bottle.

Not just a great day for tennis - celebrations at Royston's improved BMX track
Posted: July 08, 2013|
Avid BMX riders were celebrating on Sunday when one of the "hidden jewels" in Royston's crown was officially re-opened.
The track, in Burns Road, underwent a major £100,000 transformation in March and is now recognised as one of the best BMX facilities in the region.
North East Herts MP Oliver Heald was joined by Royston mayor Cllr Robert Smith when he cut the ribbon to celebrate the re-modelled track - which is already attracting riders from all over the country.
Cllr Smith said: "I think some other towns are going to be a little envious of this excellent new facility, funded by Sport England's legacy Inspired Facilities' fund, and by developer contributions administered by North Hertfordshire District Council."
Mr Heald congratulated the Royston Rockets club on its success, reminding the audience that when the club started 30 years ago, many had said it wouldn't last, yet it had gone on to become one of the most successful BMX Clubs in the country.
More than 170 riders from the Eastern region gathered to compete on the new track for the first time after the official celebratory cutting of the ribbon.
Cllr Tony Hunter, NHDC's portfolio holder for Policy and Community Services said: "The new BMX track is one of the hidden jewels in Royston's crown.
"More local young people are using the track since the facilities have become available and the club's attendance has doubled in size.
"Access to the new facilities has also improved with the introduction of the new cycle path.
"It has been a great project to be involved with. It is now recognised as one of the top tracks in the region, and will benefit club members and the community for many years to come."
Royston Rockets applied for the Olympic legacy funding last year and was one of 310 projects in England to receive lottery investment from the Inspired Facilities fund.
The track's surface has been replaced and new jumps have been added.
Chairman Phil Townsend said maintaining the old track in its worn state had been a constant battle.

Heat 1 1/2 teaspoons oil in wok or skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering, then add eggs and stir-fry until just cooked through, about 30 seconds. Transfer to a plate and wipe out pan, if necessary.
Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in pan until shimmering and stir-fry shrimp and chile paste 30 seconds (shrimp will not be cooked through).
Add chorizo and garlic and stir-fry until shrimp are just cooked through, 30 seconds to 1 minute.
Add soy mixture, cooked noodles, jicama, and scallions, and stir-fry until noodles are heated through and scallion greens are wilted, about 1 minute.
Remove pan from heat and stir in eggs. Serve immediately.
Cooks' Notes:
In the 30 minutes it takes to soak the noodles, all other prep work can be done, including bringing the water to a boil to cook the noodles.
The chile paste is quite strong when it hits the pan, and will likely cause you to cough, so if you have a vent fan, turn it on high.
Some people prefer their chorizo with casing removed, but in Asia, they wouldn�t remove the casing on Chinese sausage, so it�s your choice whether you want to remove it or not.

Today Nikon released its 2.00 firmware update that will replace the previous 1.00 version. Yet, the upgrade process can be made only with the D7100 Digital SLR Camera, and only if the current version isn't already 2.00.
There are two different files that do the same thing, one is for Microsoft's Windows OSes, and one for Mac's platforms – in other words, an F-WRR10-V200W.exe file and an F-WRR10-V200M.dmg file respectively, both containing the "WRR10_0200.bin" needed for the update.
With this package installed, and WR-1 and WR-R10 used as a transmitter and receiver, respectively, you will be able to see and change the camera setting using the WR-1, and have support for the Release Hold Time feature built in the WR-1.
In order to update this version, after running the downloadable .exe or .dmg file, both will create a 'WRR10Update" folder in which you will find the "WRR10_0200.bin" file – copy this file onto the root directory of an SD card, insert the card into the camera and turn it on.
Now, from the Setup Menu, choose Firmware version and follow the on-display instruction, and afterwards, turn off the camera and remove the SD card – and that's that.
Therefore, follow one of the links below and stay up to date.
Nikon WR-R10 Wireless Remote Controller Firmware Update 2.00 for Windows

Questions—-OSU bye week
Duckfanmo: Ken, it seems like the next step in Jeremiah Masoli's impressive development is learning to look off defensive backs and check off to second and third receivers. How do coaches teach those kinds of skills? Are there drills and exercises, or is it all browbeating in the film room? Dennis Dixon made a huge improvement in these areas between his junior and senior years. Commentators always say, "the game has really slowed down for him." Are there ways to hasten this, to take a kid with a live arm and good feet and make him more ready for a rivalry game with the Holiday bowl on the line? How much more do you try to teach him in two weeks?
You can actually get a great deal done, and Kelly has been working non-stop on Masoli and the others, all year. In the Stanford game, when Masoli hit Terence Scott with the diving catch on a post pattern to get the final winning drive going, Masoli (I saw this on field level film from head on, looking right at Masoli), got the ball, looked to his left and shifted his shoulder, thus holding the safety, while he came back to his right and hit Scott with the pass. It was an excellent example of what he needs to continue to do to be successful. If you are familiar with the style of junior college football, suffice to say it's wide open with a lot of free lancing by all talented players. I think especially at quarterback, JC players coming to the Pac-10 are not used to having to be precise every single throw—they didn't face the caliber of athlete or as well-coached, with JC defenses. Kelly does a lot of specialty drills with the quarterbacks while special teams are practicing, and with, all those team drills to get done, it gives him about 15-20 minutes a day, outside of his individual drills to polish quarterback skills. This time is golden, and is especially effective because it reinforces the mental work done in the film room. I've only known one quarterback who didn't like to watch film, Jim McMahon, who used to complain, "It just doesn't look like that (on film), from my view on the field inside my football helmet."
Duxsfan: One more comment about defense, how they could unravel in the second half vs. Arizona. We've heard a lot of debate about possession time, and there is a lot to that. But consider this: the Duck offense went AWOL for 25 minutes without a first down or converting a third-down conversion at all, due mostly to mistakes that could and should, have been prevented (like Dickson falling down in the open field after catching a third-down pass without any defender close to him, or a wide receiver running the wrong route on a long pass down the sideline.) Oregon ran 21 plays in the final half, while Arizona ran 53. With Tonio Celotto, defensive lineman out for the game, and Thurmond out for the second half, the Ducks got worn down. They did get three turnovers and stopped the Wildcats three more times on fourth down, which is a turnover as well.
Kyle Harris: Rob Moseley's blog post on Oregon's defense having to play more snaps than any other team in the nation is quite interesting. In your guru-rific analysis how much blame does the offense shoulder on this? When the offense is either going 3 and out or scoring on the within the first minute of possession what do you do?
Kyle, I think a lot. Chip Kelly explained that he felt the play calling was as aggressive in the second half as the first, the difference being 0-6 third down conversions in the second half, after going 4-for-5 in the first half, on drives that eventually scored three touchdowns. He said the offense made mistakes that cost them converting all the third downs in the second half. When the defense comes on the field after the offense went for a touchdown, giving them a bigger lead, there is an obvious psychological advantage, which impacts energy and stamina. Your opponent is struggling with just the opposite sense of psyche. Think about how frustrated you got seeing the Arizona offense score quickly; this definitely doesn't give you more energy or focus. The other advantage you have coming off a short break after success, is that your opponent may be more limited in what they can try to do to you, strategy-wise. An example is Oregon in the BSU game, calling 31 passes in a row to end the game, when they got so far behind, they couldn't stick with their offense, or their quarterback and had only one way to go. Although the Ducks and Darron Thomas made some big plays, it was still an advantage for Boise State's defense to know what the Ducks had to do and how they had to try and do it. So, from the mental and physical side, I think there is a big difference in how you feel and how you play, even in both situations you aren't getting much bench rest time. The Duck defense is not deep and it showed in the fourth quarter.
Ken Woody is a former Fox Sports football commentator who played defensive back, receiver and kicker for Oregon from 1966 to 1970. He coached college football for 18 years, including stints as an assistant coach at Oregon, Washington, WSU and Utah State, and was head coach at Whitman College and Washington University-St. Louis.

Three-time scoring champ Kevin Durant responded to the Lil Wayne controversy after the Grammy winner rapper was denied a late request for tickets to Game 3 at Chesapeake Energy Arena on Thursday night.
Thunder-Spurs: Kevin Durant responds to Lil Wayne controversy
Wayne took to Twitter to criticize Thunder officials and cheer on the San Antonio Spurs, then later said in an interview he feels unwelcome in Oklahoma City for what he viewed as racism.
"Of course, when someone tells Lil Wayne, 'No,' that he can't come in, 'We're sold out,' you feel a certain way. Unfortunately, it had to go down like that," Durant told The Associated Press on Saturday. "We'd have loved to have him here in Oklahoma City. We'd have welcomed him with open arms. Hopefully, we get past that and next time he can come and enjoy a game.
"It was just a misunderstanding. We were sold out of tickets, I heard, and we didn't come through. He knows a few of us on the team and he knows it's nothing like that. We offered him tickets to tonight, but he had to do something. He's a superstar in his own right ... so he can't just pick up and go to a game."
Wayne said one of his managers has advised him not to return to Chesapeake Arena for sports events or concerts, but Wayne said, "I never say never."
Durant and teammate James Harden offered Wayne tickets to Game 4, but the rapper refused.
"He had something to do," Durant said, "but I'm sure if his schedule was free, he would have came tonight. We're still inviting him to games — maybe not this year. Next year or whatever."
Harden scoffed when asked if he ever felt unwelcome in OKC because he is black. "Not even close," Harden said.
Thunder forward Serge Ibaka shot 11 for 11 from the field and 4 for 4 from the free-throw line to finish with a career-high 26 points in Game 4.
Ibaka finished one field goal short of tying the NBA record for highest shooting percentage in a playoff game, set by Larry McNeill of the Kansas City-Omaha Kings on April 13, 1975.
Unlike Ibaka, however, McNeill was not perfect in his game.
In a 102-95 victory over the Chicago Bulls in Game 2 of an opening-round series, McNeill went 12 for 12 from the field, 4 for 5 from the free-throw line and finished with a career-high 28 points. Interestingly, he also fouled out of the game.
There are similarities between McNeill and Ibaka.
The 6-foot-9 McNeill was a second-round pick (25th overall) of the Kansas City-Omaha Kings in the 1973 NBA Draft. He died at age 53 in 2004.
The 6-foot-9 Ibaka was a first-round pick (24th overall) in the 2008 NBA Draft.
McNeill's career scoring average was 8.5, the exact same as Ibaka's career average through three seasons.
The Thunder had 27 assists in Game 4, which tied a season high.
OKC finished last in the NBA in assists during the regular season at 18.5 per game and that's exactly what the Thunder is averaging this postseason.
"We have to keep moving the basketball," said Thunder coach Scott Brooks. "We've done a great job all playoffs of not turning the ball over, which was a problem of ours during the regular season, but we somehow have done a good job with that. But just moving the basketball, everybody's touching it, everybody's participating in the offense. You're not just a one-sided offensive team. We're moving the ball to the second side and coming back to the strong side. That's what we have to do."

"The Road to SOA Is Not So Smooth," Says Anne Thomas Manes
from http://webservices.sys-con.com/read/118070.htm
Burton Group recently released an in-depth research report that points to three significant impediments that are slowing adoption of service-oriented architecture (SOA). The report, "Vantage Point 2005-2006 SOA Reality Check," highlights SOA infrastructure, design and culture as hurdles to SOA uptake.

Transportation: Manila City - Batangas City - Puerto Galera-Talipanan Beach / El Canonero Diving Beach Resort.
When arriving at Manila with one of the many international airlines, if you arrive during the first hours of the morning and do not have the intention of stopping at Manila, you can continue towards Batangas for reaching the Resort on the same day. On the contrary, since the last ships leave Mindoro, Sabang, Puerto Galera and White Beach at 16:00 hrs. You will have to reach Batangas during the following morning. * * Special schedule ships from Lea Beach.
From Manila the easiest, most convenient and safest way to reach us is the combined Sikat service. It departs daily in the mornings, at 08:00 from the Citystate Tower Hotel on 1315 A.Mabini Street in Ermita, Manila, there are other comfortable hotels in the area. The Sikat bus will take you directly to Batangas port and then board the ship to Puerto Galera, Sabang Beach or White Beach.
There is another way: from Manila to Batangas you can take a taxi or the Buendia Station buses, take one of the frequent buses that reach Batangas Port in about 2 hours. From Batangas preferably take a ship to White Beach, the closest to Talipanan or through Puerto Galera. You can also board the ship in Sabang but the path is 4 miles longer.
Arrive on these means of transportation, or through the Sicat service mentioned before, in one of the three locations. Then for reaching the Resort at Talipanan Beach, you will need to take a Jeep or Tricycle. It is only a few minutes away from White Beach, 15 minutes from Puerto Galera and 30 minutes from Sabang.

Adelaide boy STEVE HART follows up his spate of main room bombs with yet another slice of high-energy goodness in "Bring The Noise".
Smashing it out of the park on this one, encompassing a tough-as-nails drop into hands-in-air breakdowns, Aussie big room legends DENZAL PARK loved it so much they even churned out their own Re-Edit!
Also on the remix pack, DENZAL PARK give us their alternative take, JASON RISK thumps out a bouncy electro banger and WELLSAID provides a quality bass-heavy house cut.

My wife, who is my caree, and I were sharing the other day the gaping wounds we feel in our hearts from our lives taking a 360 degree turn from the life we had before she became severely disabled from four back surgeries; critical illness neuropathy; and a Parkinsonian Movement Disorder.
We concluded that we need to relate to each other in new ways that heal the pain; fill the emptiness; and not let what's happened overcome us.
She wondered if anyone else on our site is experiencing anything like this. I said, "In all likelihood."
So we begin our journey of learning how we can relate to one another in healthy, enriching ways in which we respect each others needs, wants, etc. We have been talking more openly of the myriad feeling of the issues we have faced: Me having to make the horrible choice of having her placed in a nursing home; facing the physical changes that have occurred for her psychologically/emotionally; my still being on disability; me having to live with family; getting our house ready for foreclosure; fears about the future; and a thousand other topics.
We laughed for a moment as we talked about all the things we have been through in our lives personally and together. We thought of writing a book called "And Then…," a humorous look at the constant challenges we face one after another in life and how we face them. I want to start working it with her.
On Thanksgiving, I picked up dinner from our favorite restaurant. A funny Thanksgiving story is that I went to put my wife's cheesecake in the patient refrigerator/nutrition room with the combination an aide gave me, only to wind up getting locked in because the lock mechanism went south. I was locked in for an hour. I stayed calm as a cucumber. I had my cell phone on me so I could call the nursing station, thank God. I called my wife's cell and told her how I was locked in the nutrition room. She was concerned and then we both laughed. Finally the director came with some tools and I was able to dismantle the lock from within. Cool, I thought, proud as a peacock. So that's my funny story.
Would love to hear People's experiences of what I will call the "gaping wound of the heart" phenomenon.
Got to go. Thanks for reading….Bob

For example, suppose you need to pitch an idea for a new product or service to
both a team of project managers and a company's executive team. Many
of the slides would be the same for both groups, but the presentation to the
executive team would include more in-depth competitive and financial analysis.
You would develop the executive team's presentation first and then
create a custom slide show for the project managers by using a subset of the
slides in the executive presentation.
During a presentation, you might sometimes want to be able to make an
on-the-spot decision about whether to display a particular slide. You can give
yourself this flexibility by hiding the slide so that you can skip over it if
its information doesn't seem useful to a particular audience. If you
decide to include the slide's information in the presentation, you can
display it by pressing the letter H or by using the Go To Slide command.
In this exercise, you'll select slides from an existing presentation
to create a custom slide show for a different audience. You'll also
hide a slide and then see how to display it when necessary.
On the Slide Show tab, in the
Start Slide Show group, click the
Custom Slide
Show button, and then click Custom Shows.
The Custom Shows dialog box opens.
Click New.
The Define Custom Show dialog box opens.
The default custom show name is selected in the Slide

on the right.
You can change the order of the slides by clicking the
Up or Down arrow to the right of the Slides In Custom Show
Add slides 9, 10, and 14 through 16, and
then click OK.
Of the 16 slides in the presentation, you have chosen 11 to show to
In the Custom Shows dialog box,
click Show to start the custom slide
Click the mouse button to advance through all the slides, including
the blank one at the end of the show.
In Normal view, on the Slide
Show tab, in the Start Slide
Show group, click the Custom
Slide Show button.
The Managers custom show has been added to the list. Clicking this
option will run the custom slide show.
In the list, click Custom
In the Custom Shows dialog box,
verify that Managers is selected, and
then click Edit.
In the Slides in custom show list,
click slide 3, and then click
PowerPoint removes the slide from the custom slide show, but not from
the main presentation.
Click OK to close the Define Custom Show dialog box, and then
click Close to close the Custom Shows dialog box.
On the Slides tab of the Overview pane, click slide 3, and then in the Set Up group, click the Hide
Slide button.
On the Slides tab, PowerPoint puts a box with a diagonal line around
the number 3, and dims the slide contents to indicate that it is

EW critic says Dexter should get rid ... of Rita?!?
Entertainment Weekly critic Ken Tucker said in his most recent review at his "Watching TV" blog that the three things he wouldn't miss are the Batista/Laguerta relationship, Quinn's touchy relationship with a scoop hungry reporter and Rita, played by Julie Benz.
His issue isn't with Benz's performance, but he said he feels "dubious" about the fixes that have to be made to Dexter and Rita's relationship. All this talk of working out issues could turn an edgy show about a body chopping serial killer into an episode of The View with less screaming and violence.
The critic has spoken. What say you?

i zoom for rail
Type: Posts; User: tuart
i zoom for rail
try playing another game type bro.
you say you're good at insta.. well go play CA and hide with rail for a while.
nice mini movie..
liked it a lot
i have like 9 or 10 days, had this account since it first started
thats a really good idea
bro in all honesty id should just focus on RETAINING the players who already play quake. lets face it, not many new people are going to start playing this game and get really into it.. it has an...
no you didn't because you're a ******
dude i miss CAL and cs1.6 so much.
i've always used r_mode -2, but i'm curious as to what the actual resolution it is displaying is. is there a way to find that out? i'm using a CRT with a max refresh of 85hz
quakelive is losing money. i don't think they're going to add any servers
you used to be able to accelerate while bhopping over flat planes in source when the game was first released, but since it was exploited, it was removed.
bro if you keep going back to t3 games you're never going to get good. in t4 movement is very important.. if you run around like an idiot which you can do in t3 you're going to get pooped on.
lol its been 70+ for t4 for a long time now bro. you're just that bad
music can improve gameplay. sometimes its better to play based off feel as opposed to being passive and trying to outplay the enemies movement
comfortably numb is terrible and will make your clan terrible.
i know they did a few months ago
mine has been **** ever since then
no one hits 60%+ RL in CA because everyone spams it or uses it to RJ around. 40%+ rail is much more common and the 27% lg is pretty accurate.
idk bros sg used to be good and then they made it terrible
yeah but he has a point. lower tier games are filled with friendly players who like to tell you to 'have fun' and 'enjoy the game'. tier4 is 'im better than you fgt'
idk bro i came to this game with no quake experience what-so-ever.. played t3 for a while and got the point where i would lead my team every game. then i moved to t4, did AWFUL for a month or so,...

Following decades of civil war, South Sudan declared its independence and became the world's newest country in 2011. Yet, it has continued to be mired in violence. Patriarchal practices like early and forced marriage, coupled with the crippling effects of conflict, limit women's ability to obtain basic healthcare services, education, and their basic rights.
Yet women like Regina have not lost hope. With your help, the Women for Women International – South Sudan team provides our yearlong training program for women, as well as outreach efforts to engage men.
Since 2006, Women for Women International – South Sudan has served more than 11,000 women through our yearlong program.
After graduating from our program, women report positive changes in four key areas:
Women earn and save money: Nine times as many participants report saving a portion o ftheir income at graduation.
Women develop health and well-being: More than nine times as many participants report having knowledge of good nutritional practices at graduation.
Women influence decisions in the home and community: More than twice as many participants report having knowledge of their rights at graduation.
Women create and connect to networks for support and advocacy: Eight times as many participants report participating in social networks with others in their communities at graduation.

Some final words about distribution divergence...and a request for Java Gotchas..
A few weeks ago, I wrote about distribution divergence and that spawned what I thought was a pretty terrific comment stream, so thanks. I wanted to talk just a smidgen more about this, something I consider very important.
I think that divergence is a tempest in a teapot.. if you look over just the last 5 years of Linux and open source development, the greatest periods of chaos were not brought about by a distribution divergence problem. In fact, I wouldn't even put distribution divergence in the top 5. The times when Linux had its most severe bumps wasn't even when kernel stable versions changed, although I think accommodating new kernels is an interesting , if not all that dangerous, time.
The one that really sticks with my is when there are wholesale, non-backward compatible, changes to glibc or any really large , extremely popular library set. You saw it whenever glibc advances, or when you have a popular library like expat that is used in such a way as to conflict with other instances of expat.
That said, I really see this as just another facet of that long running deployment problem that you can solve only by developing only the most trivial of programs. Windows users call this dll-hell, but we aren't immune. Linux upgrading and repository systems are okay at dealing with this, so it isn't as bad as the windows common dialog or visual basic runtime problems of years past.
What I'm trying to say here is that while distribution divergence is an issue worth thinking about when deploying, I don't see it as big an obstacle as others might. And at the risk of sounding like a complete rube, wasn't WORA supposed to fix this issue for Java developers anyhow?
BOF at OSCON!
For those of you attending the O'Reilly Open Source Convention, I'll be throwing a Java on Linux/Java Newbies birds of a feather session. on Wednesday, July 28th at 9pm. It'll be late, so I might relocate it to a bar if enough people want it to happen that way.
I'll also be taking part in a developer community BOF on Thursday night.(We think, it has not become finalized yet). Either way, I look forward to meeting anyone I happen to at OSCON next week.
Now I'd like to leave this article with a question that might strike some as a troll, but a friend of mine inherited some C++ code that he is considering porting to Java, quote: "I've only personally worked with java once many years ago implementing a simple network game and I found it incredibly easy to implement fairly non-trivial systems (eg. async network io + synchronization + threads) and that was 6 years ago."
What's the hardest thing about developing Java applications? He wanted some thoughts on what to worry about when porting an application from C++ "which is
heavily templated, poorly commented, but thoroughly unit tested" and I thought, where better to ask then here. What gotchas would you pass on about java development?

Recognizing the need for an integrated and fully funded public health system, the director of the Iowa Department of Public Health commissioned a work group made up of state and local public health partners (13 local and 12 state public health practitioners), in the summer of 2004. The need had become apparent in the collection of comments from public health meetings between state and local public health stakeholders, held throughout the state in 2003.
The charge for the work group was to assess the current structure of public health service delivery and to make recommendations for redesigning public health in the state.
The structure of public health is comprised of the State Board of Health, Iowa Department of Public Health, 101 local boards of health (98 counties, 2 cities, and 1 district), and many local public health providers. Local public health agencies (governmental and non-governmental) provide a variety of direct services, while the state provides funding, technical assistance, training, and consultation.
Understanding the magnitude of its task, the Work Group for Redesigning Public Health in Iowa decided early to limit initial discussions to governmental public health - local agencies, the state department, and local and state boards of health. Private health care agencies that function as lead public health entities through contractual agreements with local boards of health are considered, for the purposes of this process, to be local health agencies.
The decision to focus initially on governmental public health created a strong backbone of the system before including the other entities that play critical roles in delivering public health services to Iowans.
To gain a national perspective, the Work Group researched improvement plans and performance standards from other states. National resources include organizations such as the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)   and the National Association of County and City Health Officials (NACCHO)  .
The Work Group decided that one of the first steps for Redesigning Public Health was to develop standards for local and state public health that would define what every Iowan should expect from public health. The Work Group asked a broad group of stakeholders with expertise in public health to serve on committees to draft standards and criteria. Following three public comment periods the Iowa Public Health Standards were finalized in December of 2007.
Upon completion of the Iowa Public Health Standards the Work Group decided to continue to move forward by working to implement the standards. In order to achieve this, five implementation committees were developed. It was the charge of one of those committees to determine whether or not the Iowa Public Health Standards should appear in Iowa Code. The group determined it would be appropriate to do so and drafted the Public Health Modernization Act.
Having met the original goal of developing standards for Iowa's public health system, and having put in motion a mechanism to implement the Iowa Public Health Standards, it seemed that the work of Redesigning Public Health in Iowa was completed. The Work Group voted to officially declare Redesign complete in November 2008. At that same meeting the work of Modernizing Public Health in Iowa began.

[Ask Tami] What's That Song "singer had a similar voice of Steven Tyler"

What's the name of the song playing between 8:00-8:15 p.m. It sounded like a country rock ballad and the singer had a similar voice of Steven Tyler.
Hi Vangie-
That was [lastfm link_type="similar_artist_radio"]Aerosmith[/lastfm] "Cryin'".
Got anymore brain-busters?
…What's that song: "70s song male artist with a great guitar?"
