WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – The Purdue men's swimming and diving team defeated Big Ten foe Michigan State today, 184.50-115.50 today at the Boilermaker Aquatic Center, while setting eight Doris Z. Holloway Pool records. The win improves Purdue to 5-1 (2-0 Big Ten) on the year.
"I thought that today's meet went well," said Purdue head men's swim coach Dan Ross. "Overall, I am very pleased with the way things went against Michigan State. I thought that we maybe made a couple of tactical errors, but hopefully this win will set the tone for us for the rest of our big meets coming up soon. We raced well and I thought that, most importantly, the effort to win was there today."
Several Boilermakers set or were part of multiple pool records today, but the most incredible leader in the Purdue camp was, by far, senior Jon Duncan. Duncan set two individual pool records in the 100 backstroke with a time of 51:04 and the 100 freestyle in 45.72, while also swimming the lead-off leg on the final relay of the day in the 400 free relay.
Another Boilermaker who made a huge impact against the Spartans was Louis Paul, swimming in his first meet as a member of the team. Paul, who began at Purdue at the semester break, hails from Sydney, Austrailia, and broke two pool records in his first outting. Paul should make in incredible impact on the team with a time of 1:52.90 in the 200 individual medley and a 50.91 lead-off leg on the 400 medley relay.
Along with Paul, sophomore Tamas Besseneyei, junior Tad Sayce and senior Javier Diaz finished first in the 400 medley relay for the Holloway Pool record with a time of 3:20.10. The Boilermakers' 'B' squad finished in 3:26.05 for second place.
Setting another pool record in the 1,000 free was freshman Rion Epping with a time of 9:21.26. Sophomore Garth Bringman followed in fourth place, while sophomores Nick Cenci and Ian Lehman were fifth and sixth.
In the 200 free, Michigan State's Joe Brennan finished first to set a pool record in 1:41.04. Junior Ehud Dekter was the fastest Boilermaker with a time of 1:42.14, followed by Kyle Jackson in 1:42.46.
Following Duncan's first-place finish in the 100 back for his pool record, freshman David Hughes was second with a time of 51.93 and freshman Eric Prugh was fourth in 54.55.
Junior Mike Miller finished with a great swim in the 100 breaststroke for first place and a time of 57.75, while Sayce,senior Donovan Crowley and sophomore Tony Ten Haagen were right behind for second through fourth places.
Bessenyei showed he is gearing up for another Big Ten championship, as he took a chance at the 200 fly and finished first in 1:53.72. Junior Jeremy Wright was the next-closest Boilermaker in fourth place.
Senior Ryan Sprengel finished second in the 50 free with a time of 21.49 and Paul finished tied for third in 21.62.
– more –
In the 200 backstroke, Hughes set a pool record with his first-place finish in a time of 1:53.88, as Jackson finished close behind in 1:54.53.
Bessenyei continued his record-setting day with a Holloway Pool record in the200 breaststroke with a time of 2:00.94, finishing almost eight seconds ahead of his closest competitor and teammate, Diaz.
In the 500 free, Dekter finished as the Boilermakers' top finisher in second, with a time of 4:37.54.
Crowley took away a first-place finish in the 100 fly with a time of 51.35, while Wright finished sixth in 52.40.
Finishing in third place, behind Paul's pool record in the 200 IM was senior Tom Drejer with a time of 1:56.92 and in the final event of the day, the team of Duncan, Wright, Diaz and Sayce finished first with a pool record in the 400 free relay and a time of 3:03.20.
On the diving boards, the Boilermakers continue to make their climb to the elite of the Big Ten under the guidance of first-year head coach Wenbo Chen. Despite a couple of injuries, the Boilermakers finished in second, fourth and fifth on the 1-meter board and first, third and sixth on the 3-meter board. Senior Kevin Young finished fifth on the 1-meter and sixth on the 3-meter, sophomore transfer Eric Warrick finished fourth on the 1-meter and first on the 3-meter and freshman Clay Davis finished second on the 1-meter and third on the 3-meter board.
The Boilermakers will look to gather a couple more Big Ten wins as they travel to University Park, Pa. for a double-dual meet against Penn State and Michigan on Friday and Saturday, Jan. 18 and 19.

Pierce has completely missed the mark this time. Indeed, it is extremely
disappointing that he is encoiuraging viewers to tune in to this crass, vulgar
excuse for a show.
Pierce has apparently ignored the fact that this show makes a life of crime to be a harmless, care free pursuit. Crime is not a laughing matter, and the producers of this show should be ashamed of themselves for belittling crime victims.
Pierce was right about one thing: this show continues the modern Hollywood trend of pushing more and more nudity and indiscriminant sexuality on the public. That is not what the public wants, and that is why this show is doomed to failure.

Greg Hicok was diagnosed with Primary Lateral Sclerosis, a rare form of Lou Gehrig's Disease, several years ago and has been confined to a wheelchair for the last six years.
Unable to walk or work, Greg slipped into a deep depression that even medicine couldn't save him from. Doctor's had exhausted their resources and had no other options until Greg's neurologist suggested electroconvulsive treatments for his depression. By the second treatment, Greg's state of mind was improved and so was the muscle flexibility in his legs. Slowly, but surely, Greg was able to walk again and doctors credit it to the electroconvulsive treatments.
While Greg's doctor says his outcome is exciting, it is uncommon. The treatment is not a cure for a neurological disease even though it seems to be working in this case. Greg's nuerologist is preparing to report his findings in an upcoming medical magazine.

(Sports Network) - The Cincinnati Reds look to secure a series victory on
Sunday afternoon as they conclude a three-game set with the Colorado Rockies,
who will have Tyler Chatwood back in their rotation.
The Reds are in the thick of the playoff chase, holding a six-game edge on the
Arizona Diamondbacks for the league's second wild card spot. They also trail
the NL Central-leading Pittsburgh Pirates by only 3 1/2 contests.
Cincinnati has won just three of its past eight games, evening this series
with Saturday's 8-3 win behind Brandon Phillips and starter Greg Reynolds.
Phillips homered and drove in two runs to give him a career-high 99 RBI on the
season, while Reynolds had one of the best performances of his career against
the club that took him second overall in the 2006 draft.
Reynolds hurled a career-high eight innings and limited the Rockies to three
runs on seven hits. He was rolling before giving up a two-run homer to Chris
Dickerson in the eighth, but did not walk a batter on the night.
"In this ballpark you can't walk people and can't give up home runs after
walking people," said Cincinnati manager Dusty Baker. "What he did really well
was keep the ball down and that's important in this place."
Colorado's Todd Helton came into the game one hit shy of 2,500 for his career,
but went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts.
Juan Nicasio took the loss, touched for six runs on seven hits over 4 1/3
"The first inning it looked like he was trying to get loose almost," said
Rockies manager Walt Weiss. "And then as the game went on, it looked like he
got looser and looser. His velocity was starting to climb, but he was laboring
through most of the night."
Colorado had won five of seven after taking Friday's opener and look to win
the rubber match today behind the returning Chatwood.
A breakout performer for the Rockies this year, Chatwood has not pitched since
July 31 because of a right elbow injury. He went 7-4 with a 3.15 earned run
average through 15 starts before getting placed on the disabled list.
The 23-year-old righty allowed just one run on five hits over 5 1/3 innings of
a rehab start with Triple-A Colorado Springs on Tuesday.
"It had been a while, so it was awesome to get back out there and compete
again," Chatwood told Colorado's website of the rehab outing. "I think it was
just sharpness of my command, and my command wasn't there early. They were
close misses, but early on I wasn't really getting strike one. So later on I
started getting ahead and felt good."
Chatwood faced the Reds for the first time in his career on June 3 and lost a
3-0 decision. He allowed one run over four innings.
Mike Leake looks to put August behind him today for the Reds after going 1-1
with a 6.44 ERA over five starts in the month.
Leake is unbeaten over his last four outings, but failed to hold an early 4-0
lead in Monday's outing versus St. Louis. He did not factor into an 8-6 loss,
giving up five runs on seven hits and a walk in 6 1/3 innings. The righty gave
back three runs in the third on a home run after Cincinnati scored four runs
in the second.
The 25-year-old is 1-0 with a 4.09 ERA in two previous meetings with the
Rockies. He is 11-5 with a 3.27 ERA in 26 starts overall this season.
The Reds won two of three when the teams met in Cincinnati in May.

Abortion doctor embraces 'emotionally satisfying career'
WASHINGTON (BP)--America has gained a peek into the closely guarded world of the abortion clinic recently and, as would be expected, it has not been a pleasant sight.
An estimated 47 million abortions have taken place since the procedure was legalized Jan. 22, 1973, by the Supreme Court. In the last 33 years, the practices of abortion doctors and the reasoning of the women who have received abortions have largely remained hidden from the American public. Shame certainly is a factor. The curtain around the abortion clinic normally has been pulled back during this time only when a clinic operator, doctor, nurse or post-abortive woman has turned from past beliefs and practices -- sometimes as a result of being converted to Christ.
One abortionist -- a term William Harrison uses for himself -- has allowed the American public in the last two months, however, to look more closely into his world without having any intention of leaving it. He opened himself, and his clinic in Fayetteville, Ark., up to The Los Angeles Times and ABC News.
Harrison, 70, has performed at least 20,000 abortions, according to the Times. Four days a week, he usually does six abortions a day.
For Harrison, such a use of his medical skills and training does not appear to be something he is ashamed of.
"I've had one of the most emotionally satisfying careers that I can imagine anyone having," Harrison said Jan. 11 on the ABC News program "Nightline." "I can't tell you how satisfying it is when two weeks after a young woman has come in distraught and thinking that her life is ruined, and she comes back two weeks after the abortion and she is a new woman. She's been given her life back."
To both the Times and Nightline, Harrison described as "born again" the women whose children he has aborted.
Nightline co-anchor Martin Bashir said to the doctor, "And for her to be born again, you've had to kill the fetus."
Harrison replied, "That's right."
"And that's a fair exchange?" Bashir asked.
"That's a fair exchange," Harrison said.
"My conscience tells me to do abortions because I consider the mother's life much, much more important than that tiny, little blob of tissue," Harrison told Nightline.
Bashir cited to Harrison as facts these stages in the unborn child's development: The heart is pumping blood after 21 days; brain waves are recorded after 42 days.
"And you are, every day, relentlessly terminating that life," Bashir said to the doctor. "And you are happy with that?"
"Am I happy with it? No, but I'm not distressed about it," Harrison said. "I would be a lot more distressed if I could not terminate that life for the patient that that life is going to be a disaster for."
Bashir also asked him, "When does life begin?"
"When fertilization occurs, that is a new life. And that's why I say that I kill life," Harrison said, while denying the unborn baby is a person, "that I kill something that's potentially a person. It's not a person."
When Harrison mentioned a patient who has had nine abortions, Bashir asked, "Is that really appropriate?"
"If she needs nine abortions, yes," the doctor said.
"Basically, abortion is a method of birth control," Harrison told Nightline. "You know, it's not the best method of birth control, but all it does is stop the birth of the baby that a woman doesn't want at a time she doesn't want it."
According to the Times and Nightline, Harrison said he witnessed the effects of botched abortions on women before the Supreme Court's 1973 action. He opened an obstetrics and gynecology clinic but later started doing abortions.
In the reports, the young women who were interviewed gave reasons for having abortions that focused, as might be expected, on their needs. Harrison clearly did as well.
"[M]y patients who have given up babies for adoption and then had abortions tell me the most difficult thing that they've ever done is to give up a baby for adoption," said Harrison, who does not talk about adoption unless a woman asks about it. "It's not like giving away a puppy."
When asked if she considered adoption, an unidentified 18-year-old woman at Harrison's clinic told Bashir, "I thought about it, but I really thought that ... might be even harder; going through the whole pregnancy stage and seeing the child and then having to give it away I just think would ... really, really tear me up inside."
Sarah, 23, told the Times she was planning her wedding when she became pregnant. "I don't think my dress would have fit with a baby in there," she said.
An unidentified high school volleyball player said she didn't want her body to go through what a pregnancy entails. "I realize just from the first three months how it changes everything," she told the Times.
Amanda, 20, told the Times, "It's not like it's illegal. It's not like I'm doing anything wrong. I've been praying a lot, and that's been a real source of strength for me. I really believe God has a plan for us all. I have a choice, and that's part of my plan."

UNT Robocamp for Girls nominated for industry award
DENTON (UNT), Texas -- The College of Engineering's Summer Robocamp for Girls at the University of North Texas has been chosen as a finalist for the Tech Titan of the Future-University Level award, which recognizes higher education institutions that encourage students to choose engineering and technology-related disciplines.
Now in its sixth year, the Robocamp for Girls is a free, weeklong day camp for high school aged-girls hosted at UNT's Discovery Park campus each summer. The camp features numerous hands-on activities and experiments in robotics, engineering design, critical thinking and computer programming.
The winner of the Tech Titan award will be announced at the 10th Annual Tech Titans Awards Gala on Aug. 27 (Friday) at the Renaissance Hotel Dallas in Richardson. Other finalists are the Caruth Institute for Engineering Education at Southern Methodist University, and the George A. Jeffrey NanoExplorers program and the Innovation Opportunity Camp, both at the University of Texas at Dallas. The Tech Titans Awards are presented by the Metroplex Technology Business Council, the largest technology trade non-profit organization in Texas.
David Keathly, co-director of the robocamps, senior lecturer and undergraduate advisor in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, said the camps provide traditionally underrepresented groups, especially high school aged-girls, a place to develop an interest in science, engineering and technology that will stay with them long after their participation in the camp.
"We hope they will enjoy the camp activities and that it will renew their interest and increase their participation and efforts in science, math and related courses in secondary school, as well as lead to continued interest in college and beyond," Keathly said.
The College of Engineering first initiated the Robocamp for Girls program in the summer of 2005 with only two camps and has since expanded the camps to include Robocamp for Boys, co-ed Xbox Game Development Camps, and a Robocamp Jumpstart program for girls entering 7th and 8th grade. This summer there were 10 camps with a total enrollment of approximately 200 students.
The Robocamps feature activities in which students learn to assemble and program small, rolling robots to perform various tasks. In one activity that camp directors call RoboArt, students attach colored markers to the robots and program them to draw on paper.
Campers also program robots called SumoBots to compete in a sumo wrestling-style tournament in which each robot is programmed to push the other out of the ring.
Students also learn to use 3D simulation software called Alice to create an animated movie or game. At the end of the week, certificates and prizes are awarded to the best designs in various competitions, and the students can present completed projects to their parents.
"We try to vary the activities so that they are always motivated and feel challenged and engaged by not dwelling on one activity for too long," said Dr. Robert Akl, co-director of the robocamps and associate professor in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering.
"We make sure that the camps that we do are in alignment with the goals of the department by increasing the recruitment efforts, providing visibility and helping provide engineering awareness to high school students. So hopefully when it is time to choose a college and a major, they choose UNT and an engineering field."
The Robocamps and jumpstart camps are funded by Texas Workforce Commission Youth in Technology Program and the Motorola Foundation, respectively.

Nordstrong's agricultural conveyors use the en-masse principal of conveying to achieve compact design. They are available in a wide range of standard sizes that are typical of industry standards to suit end user requirements.
The Nordstrong Tail Detector Device (standard on all models) provides for automatic chain tensioning, for longer life and complete chain protection. If chain tension is lost due to the presence of foreign objects, the Detector Device shuts off the conveyor before damage occurs.
Troughs are available in several designs. Gauge of steel used in construction varies depending on model and application.

Remembering the fight that turned the tide
Veteran's Day marks anniversary of U.S. assault to regain control of Fallujah
U.S.-led forces first stormed Fallujah, Iraq, in April 2004, days after insurgents killed four Blackwater security contractors.
After troops drove out the insurgents, President George W. Bush handed security oversight to Iraqi forces. The insurgency regrouped, and violence soon escalated.
In early November 2004, Camp Pendleton Marines and others mounted Operation Phantom Fury to recapture Fallujah.
Last December, following a period of relative calm, the United States started to fold Camp Fallujah and turn the city back to Iraqi forces.
Former Camp Pendleton Marine Shane Kruchten described it as "hell on Earth."
To decorated Army veteran David Bellavia, "we were in the Verdun of the global war on terror," referring to an epic World War I battle.
This Veterans Day marks the fifth anniversary of the early stages of an all-out assault by U.S. forces to retake the city of Fallujah — a critical military success in the Iraq war.
Camp Pendleton troops, including Kruchten of Lakeside, led the offensive along with Army units that included Bellavia, now living in upstate New York.
Their combat is the subject of several books and documentaries, and film producer Michael Shamberg — whose credits include "Erin Brockovich," "Pulp Fiction" and "World Trade Center" — is interested in making a movie about the battle, with Harrison Ford playing a major character.
For about a month in Fallujah, U.S. forces endured house-to-house combat that historians say hadn't been experienced on such a large and ferocious scale since the fight for control of Hue, South Vietnam, four decades ago.
"It was a pivotal point in 2004. Things were going badly for us. There were uprisings in the city, and the Sunnis were really carrying the fight to us," said Dick Camp, author of an oral history of the battle titled "Operation Phantom Fury: The Assault and Capture of Fallujah, Iraq."
"If we had not done it, the insurgency would have spread out from there," said Camp, a former officer once based at the Marine Corps Recruit Depot in San Diego.
There were actually two fights for Fallujah in one year. Once relatively calm, the city exploded March 31, 2004, when four Blackwater security contractors were killed in an ambush. Insurgents dragged their mutilated bodies through the streets and hanged two from a bridge.
Days later, U.S. Marines were ordered to wrest control back. But right after Marines accomplished their mission, President George W. Bush's administration handed Fallujah over to Iraqi-run security personnel, and the insurgency quickly reorganize.
"We got cold feet. ... It was a political decision all the way," said Camp, who now works with the Marine Corps Heritage Foundation in Quantico, Va.
Abdicating responsibility for Fallujah's security was a major blunder, said Bing West, a retired Marine officer and author of "No True Glory," an eyewitness account of the second Fallujah campaign.
"We, the coalition, backed off and surrendered the city. ... We had to go back in with more casualties," said West, who lives in Newport, R.I.
West, who said more than 50 U.S. troops died during the second battle, draws parallels to Fallujah as President Barack Obama weighs whether to send more troops to Afghanistan, particularly for the Marjah area of Helmand province, a Taliban and drug-lord stronghold.
"We've learned nothing from Fallujah. The longer we delay in Afghanistan, the tougher the fight in Marjah is going to be," West said.
Once again, Fallujah's security has been transferred to Iraqi forces as the United States gradually reduces its presence in Iraq.
"It's a great thing. If you look at the city, it really has come to life," Marine Col. George Bristol told The New York Times in December.

Finding and Using Military Records
We honor armed forces everywhere and their families. Thank you for your sacrifice.
Military service produces lots of records. Genealogists love records.
Draft Records –
Even without enrolling in the armed forces millions of people are part of their records through draft registration cards. For example, in the US all men, with very few exceptions, are required to register with Selective Service, even though the draft is not currently in effect. Such registrations are the first of many sources of military data in the United States.
I found my colleague's grandfather, a WWII flight engineer, at WorldVitalRecords.com in our WWII army enlistment records collection.
At WorldVitalRecords we have many military collections. These records include information from many wars.
A closer look -
Upon release from active duty the military service member will then be eligible, as a Veteran, to apply for benefits. The benefits to the soldier are many and varied. From health, education, housing, emotional support, and many other services the veteran will be creating a massive paper trail that becomes part of his Veteran status.
From recruitment to training and active duty records are created. Eventually all personnel become veterans. Each step brings more records.
Unique Military Record Collections
With nearly 300 million military records WorldVitalRecords provides some very interesting and unique source of military history and data. Here are some example collections and information:
Air Force Register Extracts
I have a living distant relative who is an Air Force Veteran
Using the WVR Air Force Register Extracts I can find out a lot about his military service including:
Full Name, Service Number, Promotion List Number, Perm Grade (pay grade), Date of Permanent Grade, Promotion List Service Date, Date of Birth, Temporary Grade, Date of temporary Grade and Pay Date.
While not all of this information may be useful to my genealogy it can certainly add color to a family history.
Record of Service of Connecticut Men in the Army and Navy of the United States during the War of the Rebellion
With a title like this you're bound to find some great stuff in these records.
While not every genealogist will have tie in to this war, otherwise known as the civil war, those that do will find a historic listing of the relative fighting in an epoch time in our nations history.
The information included in these records are:
Company, Regiment, Name and Rank, Date of Enlistment, Date of Muster in this Organization, also includes remarks which include such items as death information, discharged, sickness desertions and more.
Military Records versus Veteran's records
In searching for my Grandfather in the WWII archives I could find only his WWII enlistment record. He enlisted in Los Angeles on February 12, 1943.
In 2005 I attended the funeral and military salute for my grandfather. He was buried in a civilian cemetery in Idaho. I tried to find him via the national cemetery locator tool, and had no luck, probably because the cemetery is not an officially recognized veterans cemetery. Using the locator tool I was able to find the grave of his father at the Los Angeles National Cemetery, an official Veteran Cemetery.
I have often desired to know more about my Grandfather's military service as well as that of his father. Requesting those records can be done by the next of kin – if within 62 years of military discharge. (Next of kin meaning within the same immediate family – spouse, brother or sister – son, daughter.) I cannot request his records as a next of kin – but since it was over 62 years since discharge I can follow the public records process.
Standard Form 180 – Public Records Military Request
Standard Form 180 – yes, really called that – can be found by going to this link, This form is required to request the military history of anyone discharged more than 62 years ago. The request is not lengthy but will require some dates and military information in order to have better success in locating the requested service member's file.
Also after the 62 year mark the records go from being free to having a charge. I called the National Archives, NARA, and was told that I should fax my request form – Standard Form 180 – which I have done and that they would send me an invoice. They expect the cost to be between $25 and $70. I'll have to wait up to 14 weeks to find out. Once I pay the fees I will receive the files in another few weeks.
In summary, 62 years after death or discharge records are sent to NARA. Before that they remain in possession of the military and can only be accessed only by the military individual or the next of kin.
Thank you to our US military and military around the world for their dedication and service.

What's in it for me?
Good Christians are never dissatisfied with their church's worship service. The rest of us, however, grumble from time to time. Those songs were too contemporary. I didn't get the point the preacher was driving at. He throws out verses so fast I can't keep up.
We have, many of us, a consumerist mentality when it comes to church. We spend much of our waking hours as consumers-of food, entertainment, goods and services. This is especially true in an age when the average daily wage earns an American far more than he needs to survive. All that money has to go somewhere, and judging from our national savings rates, for the most part it isn't going into the bank. So perhaps it's only natural that many spending-drunk Americans have come to view church as one more consumer experience, to be evaluated like a movie or a steak dinner.
Churches haven't helped, splintering themselves into ever-smaller sects and factions with minimal governance. When a newcomer comes straggling through that front door on Sunday morning we are so glad to see him that it rarely crosses our minds to ask: So, why did you leave your last church? Since it wasn't our church, his former place of worship was likely wrong about some aspect of doctrine, so why scrutinize the reasons for the newcomer's departure? What matters is he now sees the light and is in the right church.
So we offer up a pew, and he settles in (likely as not with a cup of coffee in hand) to join the chorus of critical voices. I liked the preacher's message, but our old church played more contemporary music. Many churches greet people as if they are consumers, and so perhaps we shouldn't be surprised if they behave as such.
The proper response to this church-consuming business is to remind the complainant that worship isn't about him. A good many of us know that already, but we are apt to forget, caught up as so many of us are in that often-elusive search for a personal relationship with Jesus. Individual-minded at the outset, we easily slip into judging a worship service based on how it made us feel.
That doesn't mean one can't criticize a worship service, of course. God struck down Aaron's sons for offering "strange fire." And Paul instructed the Thessalonians to "stand firm and hold to the traditions which you were taught." It seems clear that in order to qualify as acceptable worship, an activity has to have more to recommend it than the fact that it is committed between the hours of 10 and noon on a Sunday morning.
So what qualifies as worship? Liturgical readings? Hymn singing? I'm inclined to say yes to both. Announcements about upcoming nursery duty? Probably not.
And now here's the tough question: Does the sermon count as worship? I've heard a precious few that certainly seemed to be worship, directed as they were to the praise of God. But many are simply lectures aimed at correcting some defect in thinking among their audience, or worse, rambling feel-good stories with a few verses thrown in for effect. Perhaps each has its place. But are all sermons worship?
If not, maybe some of that grumbling is justified. And further, maybe we can approach a new equilibrium: less grumbling, more worship. The more our worship periods are filled with genuine worship, as opposed to church administrivia and individual development, perhaps the easier it will become to tell the complainers to zip it. And even better, the more we will be, well, worshiping. Which is the point, right?

I just bought this game on steam recently. When i start the game up the opening cinematic starts to play. However, it is split in half: I can see a portion of the cinematic on the lower half of my screen. The top half is completely blank. The gameplay portion seems to work fine. But i'm only able to see half of the cinematics on my computer screen. Has anyone experienced a similar issue? If so were you able to fix it? Thanks.
I am using a computer with a GTX 480 graphics card.

- Stored and reflected XSS vectors via HTTP redirects.
- Stored and reflected XSS vectors via HTTP header splitting.
- Directory traversal (including constrained vectors).
- Assorted file POIs (server-side sources, configs, etc).
- Attacker-supplied script and CSS inclusion vectors (stored and reflected).
- External untrusted script and CSS inclusion vectors.
- Mixed content problems on script and CSS resources (optional).
- Incorrect or missing MIME types on renderables.
- Generic MIME types on renderables.
- Incorrect or missing charsets on renderables.
- Conflicting MIME / charset info on renderables.

Chase ends in pot bustSeptember 10,2013Chase ends
in pot bust
Police said a Rutland man claimed to be fleeing his ex-girlfriend when he allegedly led police on a high-speed chase through a residential neighborhood while carrying a felony amount of marijuana.
Brandon E. Davis, 30, is facing up to four years in prison after pleading innocent Monday in Rutland criminal court to felony marijuana possession and a misdemeanor charge of attempting to elude police.
On July 22, according to an affidavit filed with the court, Sgt. Christopher Barber with the Rutland City Police Department saw Davis drive east through the intersection of Main and Terrill streets at a high rate of speed.
Affidavits state Barber turned on his lights and chased Davis, who did not pull over but instead led Barber on a roughly half-mile pursuit along East, Lafayette and East Center streets, with speeds in excess of 50 mph.
Barber found Davis parked in a driveway on Bellevue Avenue.
I asked Davis about the incident and he stated he was trying to lose his ex-girlfriend, Barber wrote in his affidavit. Davis further advised that he then saw me and freaked out.
Barber said he could smell marijuana in Davis vehicle and after receiving consent for a search, found a bag of pot weighing 2.2 ounces.

News: KAW Ground Mechanics Level 3 Certified
Story by Sgt. Daniel Schroeder
KANDAHAR AIRFIELD, Afghanistan – Eleven soldiers from the Logistics Kandak, Kandahar Air Wing graduated from the first level 3 ground maintenance certification course on Kandahar Airfield, Afghanistan, July 9.
Wheeled vehicle mechanics from Headquarters Support Company, 209th Aviation Support Battalion, 25th Combat Aviation Brigade instructed the KAW soldiers on NATO and Afghan criteria for entry level wheeled vehicle mechanics.
"This class was good for the motor skills of the soldiers, non-commissioned officers, and officers," said Capt. Abdul Qahar, the maintenance officer for the transportation section of the KAW.
"We now have the ability to fix the Rangers, Internationals, HMMWVs [High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle] and LMTVs [Light Medium Tactical Vehicle] on a mission if something were to happen."
Before the KAW soldiers learned how to repair the vehicles, they received instruction on maintenance safety.
"We taught them to remove any watches, rings, loose fitting clothing, and anything that could be snagged while working on a vehicle," said Spc. Dennis Spiller, assistant instructor and wheeled vehicle mechanic with HSC, 209th ASB, 25th CAB, originally from Austin, Texas. "We also instructed them on the proper protective gear to wear during maintenance. If you are not safe, you can get hurt and not be able to do your job."
Along with safety, other covered areas included replacing basic parts on the engine and transmission, and troubleshooting procedures for maintenance and electrical issues.
"[Afghan mechanics] picked up on the training quickly," Spiller said. "They showed an eagerness to learn about their vehicles and understood the process of troubleshooting swiftly."
The KAW soldiers were shown piece-by-piece what a disassembled engine looks like and replaced worn parts, such as alternators and air conditioning units, on their vehicles. They were also taught how to fill out a Ministry of Defense Roster 63, which is used to identify faults on a vehicle before it is turned in for maintenance.
"I am happy that my soldiers and NCOs have received this important training because now they have the ability to fix the vehicle if repairs are needed while on a mission," said Qahar. "Also, I do not have to worry about the safety of my soldiers during maintenance. I look forward to continuing the training with our advisers."

Brooklyn's pride and joy, The Antlers, is set to release a new album, Undersea, on July 24th via Anti. The band entered the studio in January and crafted an absolutely beautiful record. The first single, "Drift Dive," is an ethereal track that speaks to the soul. The Antlers impressed us with Hospice and Burst Apart, but the evolution of this band is truly exciting. The music has a calming effect that is desperately needed, especially during a polarizing election season. The band had this to say about the new album:
"Undersea is the feeling of suspension- memories suspended in time and space, energy suspended in the air around us. It's the serenity of drifting off to sleep or of sinking to the bottom of the ocean. It's both the comfort of knowing that some questions have no answers, and the torment that we're never meant to know the truth…We've searched for patient, colorful sounds and found a meditative calm, a persistent pulse that leaves room for everything to breathe and expand as a new world takes shape."
You can catch The Antlers live on September 8th at Uptown Untapped at The Common Table. They will be performing alongside Givers, Akron/Family, David Dondero, and more. Purchase your tickets here.
Take a deep breath and ease yourself into "Drift Dive" below. If we had more music like this, we'd all be better off.

Potential candidates should be wary of approaches that appear to be offering a job for which they have not applied, especially if personal details or money must be sent in order to proceed with the recruitment. Neither Ericsson nor any commissioned third parties recruit in this manner. Such approaches are almost certainly fraudulent attempts to gain details of identity for illegal use.

Celebrity Apprentice's George Takei Gets Hired By Ellen DeGeneres
March 06, 2012 12:00 PM by Shayla Perry
Donald Trump may have fired George Takei on the last episode of NBC's Celebrity Apprentice, but the Star Trek legend has already rebounded with a job offer from daytime talk host and former American Idol judge, Ellen DeGeneres. What's Takei going to be doing on Ellen? Keep reading for all the details.
"I had a very unique firing," George Takei tells Access Hollywood's Kit Hoover and guest co-host Chris Harrison of his stint on the NBC reality show. "Everybody loved me, they respected me, and I'm not with The Celebrity Apprentice anymore, however Ellen DeGeneres liked me and she's hired me."
Hired him to do what exactly? From the sound of it, George is making a move from the boardroom to a position in the retail sector.
"What I'm doing for Ellen, is I'm selling her products — her T-shirts, mugs and shorts — men and women," the former Star Trek actor explains of his upcoming daytime gig.
"[I'm selling] to her audience there, going up and down the aisle. So, I am still gainfully employed."
As for his recent firing on Celebrity Apprentice….
"I still maintain that we had the classier window," says Takei. "We had an elegant, glamorous show window and I think the women had a much messier — a very busy two windows. We had a visually clean, elegant show window. We were 5th Avenue and they were 34th Street."

By Mure Dickie in Tokyo
As one of Japans biggest corporate dramas in years, the furore surrounding optical equipment maker Olympus already boasts a rich cast of characters including a disgraced chairman, the British president he fired and a hapless successor struggling to clean up the mess.
But some observers wonder whether shadier players - Japans notorious yakuza crime syndicates - may also have a role in the scandal.
The Olympus case appears to bear all the hallmarks of the sort of financial frauds in which organised crime groups have been involved in the past, says Velisarios Kattoulas of Poseidon Research, which advises multinationals on doing business in Japan and other Asian nations.
Mr Kattoulas says people his firm has spoken to on the fringes of organised crime are concerned whether one of Japans most powerful yakuza groups was involved.
Facta - the Japanese magazine that uncovered the more than $1bn in suspect payments connected with the acquisitions - in October highlighted possible involvement in the scandal of a company suspected of having a relationship with antisocial forces, a euphemism used in Japan for the yakuza.
Olympuss new president, Shuichi Takayama, has waved aside such suggestions, although he has been forced to reverse earlier denials and admit that former chairman Tsuyoshi Kikukawa and other executives used a string of corporate acquisitions to cover up hidden losses dating from the 1990s.
Asked by journalists on October 26th about the possibility of involvement by antisocial forces in the scandal, Mr Takayama said, I absolutely do not recognise this.
In an article on the scandal this month, the online magazine Gendai Business argued that speculation that yakuza had a central role was premature. Even if there are strange transactions, it does not look as if strange forces were directly involved, the magazine said.
No evidence of yakuza involvement has so far come to light, but the very possibility was enough to give Michael Woodford, the British Olympus president who was fired after asking questions about the transactions, cold and clammy hands.
Nor are such fears ridiculous. Nobody doubts that the yakuza, which claim roots in traditional associations of gamblers and peddlers, remain a force in Japanese society. Police have designated 22 syndicates as boryokudan - violent groups - with nearly 80,000 members and associates.
Police also say the yakuza have been stepping up efforts to expand beyond sectors such as gambling, prostitution, drug dealing and protection rackets into legitimate businesses including finance and securities

I'm an OK C/C++ programmer. I find Haskell very intriguing. But it seems to me, that although it's relatively easy to write clean Haskell code, as it mimics math (which I'm very comfortable with) pretty well, it's very hard to write clean code in Haskell that runs fast.
A faster version of quicksort of Haskell is very long and scary, which has no resemblance to the naive but short (two lines), clean and intuitive implementation. The long and scary version of Haskell is actually still much slower than the shorter and simpler C counter part.
Is it because the current Haskell compiler is too dumb or is it just impossible for mortals (other than SJP of course) to write fast Haskell code?

Hey you! Why don't we get better acquainted?
That's right—we want to know more about YOU, etnies Girls. That's why we're asking you to fill out the first etnies Girl Web Survey so we can get a better idea about what you like, what you wear and how you spend your time. It's short and 100 percent anonymous, so you've got nothing to lose. You do, however, have something to gain! As a little "thank you" we'll give you an exclusive Ryan Sheckler wallpaper when you're done.
Just think of it: a dreamy Shecky wallpaper on your computer at all times. Filling out a survey has never been so rewarding.

As part of slimming down my bianchi pista I'm going to upgrade all the rotational weights on the bike first:
1) wheels 2) crankset/pedals (probably FSA carbon w/ speedplays)
Anyone know of quality wheelsets under 1600g for $400? Local builders? Online builders? Production wheels? As long as it holds up nicely (I'm 173 pounds). Currently I'm riding stock Alex SOLOs @ 2011 grams for the pair (4 1/2 pounds of rotational weight that just needs to go!).

Ainhowe or Ana Cross ........................ ............................. . . Ana Cross (looking south)
Ainhowe or Ana
Cross is situated about ½ a mile east of Rosedale Chimney Bank
on wild Spaunton Moor
and has been a prominent landmark for hundreds of years.
The original cross
can be seen in the crypt of Lastingham Church, about 2 miles
south of the present structure
which stands at an impressive height of over 3 metres. This makes it the tallest cross on the moors but at one time it stood even higher,
8 metres high! The cross has been restored quite recently and the difference in colour of the new shaft can clearly be seen.
However, it will soon weather to match the top part in due course.
As you can see from the above photograph, Ana Cross is often a welcome resting place for walkers.
