USC College/Los Angeles Times Poll: Whitman Ads Make Inroads in Governor's Race
Senator Boxer ahead of Republican opponent
Contact USC Media Relations 24/7 at (213) 740-2215 or email@example.com.
TODAY, 10:30 a.m. PST: A phone conference discussing results of the USC College/Los Angeles Times Poll. Domestic call-in number: (800) 230-1093
LOS ANGELES, April 5, 2010 -- Meg Whitman's massive ad buy appears to be paying off among voters, reveal new findings from the USC College of Letters, Arts & Sciences/Los Angeles Times Poll.
An overwhelming majority (72%) of registered voters who have seen Whitman's ads back her against California State Insurance Commissioner Steve Poizner. In contrast, only 38 percent of registered voters who have not seen Whitman's ads support her in the Republican gubernatorial primary.
In the general election for governor, 53 percent of voters who have seen Whitman's ads support her over likely Democratic opponent Jerry Brown, compared to 33 percent of voters who have not seen a Whitman ad.
Sixty-five of registered voters remember seeing an advertisement for a gubernatorial or Senate candidate in the last few months. Of this percentage, 75 percent specifically remember seeing an advertisement for Whitman, compared to 47 percent for Poizner.
Whitman, the former eBay executive, holds a significant lead among registered voters in the Republican primary. Sixty percent of registered Republicans say they plan to vote for Whitman, the former eBay executive, compared to 20 percent for Poizner. Whitman has already spent more on her campaign than any other state candidate in history, reportedly more than $46 million.
Against Brown, California attorney general and former governor, Whitman leads 44 to 41 percent among all registered voters polled. Thirteen percent of voters are undecided.
Whitman's ads have positioned her as a business executive who could bring strong management to California's problems, and the latest poll reflects changing voter attitudes about candidates' work experience. Forty percent of Californians polled now say it is more important for a gubernatorial candidate to have business experience than to have political experience. Thirty-five percent believed the reverse.
By a slight margin, Republican voters said they preferred a centrist candidate with appeal to independent voters over a conservative candidate who could motivate Republicans. Forty-six percent preferred a centrist candidate, compared to 42 percent in favor of a conservative candidate.
Brown's favorability rating remains virtually unchanged from where it stood in November 2009, with 41 percent of registered voters polled giving him a favorable rating and 28 percent an unfavorable rating. Whitman's favorability over the same period increased from 17 percent to 30 percent, but the percentage of registered voters who have an unfavorable impression of her also increased, from 14 percent to 23 percent.
Since November, the percentage of registered voters who said they had not heard enough about Whitman to have an impression, either favorable or unfavorable, fell from 60 percent to 39 percent.
Poll organizers said there is some indication that Whitman's lead over Brown will grow as her "name ID" continues to creep up. Among voters who can identify both candidates by name, Whitman's lead is a much larger – at 51 to 43 percent.
The race among voters registered as "decline-to-state" is a dead-heat (39 percent for Brown, 40 for Whitman).
U.S. Senator Barbara Boxer leads against an unnamed Republican challenger, with 48 percent of registered voters saying they would vote for her against a Republican candidate (34%).
Boxer's approval rating has dipped slightly in recent months. Forty percent of those polled approve of Boxer's job performance and 38 percent disapprove, compared to 43 percent approval and 36 percent disapproval in November. Boxer's favorability rating among voters is higher than her job approval, but has also fallen, from 49 percent favorable five months ago to 46 percent now, according to the USC College/Los Angeles Times Poll.
The Republican Senate primary race remains a toss-up between former Hewlett-Packard executive Carly Fiorina and former Congressman Tom Campbell, with more voters reporting they are undecided (31%) than saying they would support Campbell (29%) or Fiorina (25%). California State Assemblyman Chuck DeVore was far behind with 9 percent of voters saying they would support him.

Totally agree with you, but there must be people out there for whom seeing someone even using a cell phone up there is a problem. I don't understand it at all but there must be!
Then there's the whole thing of, why is someone talking on a phone any worse than someone talking to their friends/kids across seats, turning behind, talking across the rows, laughing etc.?
It seems to me like there's something special about cell phones which annoys people

Speaker Corrado Priami
Duration 01:21:55
Date recorded 13 October 2010
CoSBiLab is a software platform implementing the new conceptual framework of algorithmic systems biology. It is centered on the idea of representing biological elements as programs and elements interaction as message passing between the corresponding programs. This idea is guiding the programming paradigm supported by the new programming language BlenX. This approach is higher level and provides a component-based view of systems rather than reaction-based descriptions that are usually adopted in ODE or rewriting system tools. CoSBiLab allows its users to exploit compositionality and stochasticity addressing in a native way concurrency and complexity.
To make the approach intuitive, CoSBiLab has a tabular interface to model systems and to grasp data from databases so that non-experts can use CoSBiLab; i.e., programming in BlenX without having programming skills. CoSBiLab has also tools that can help inferring missing data, perform network analysis, and visualize simulation outcomes. In addition to the introduction of the conceptual framework, demos will be provided to help in understanding the software that will support the e-scientists of the future in their work.

NEW DELHI: With a sulking Jaswant Singh set to contest from Barmer as an Independent after being denied a party ticket, BJP leader Arun Jaitley today said leaders should sometime accept "no" after being showered with privileges and that his loyalty is at test.
"Membership of political party is a privilege. It is also an act of self oppression where personal views and ambitions are subjected to collective wisdom of the party. At times, the party may flood leaders with privileges and positions. On other occasions, the leader may have to take 'no' as an answer to his desires," Jaitley wrote on his website.

In automotive circles, the 1.3-litre MultiJet diesel engine made by Fiat is informally known as the national engine of India. This fabulous motor powers the Swift siblings, Ritz, SX4 and Ertiga (Maruti); Sail siblings, Beat, Enjoy (Chevrolet); Indica Vista, Indigo Manza (Tata); Rio (Premier); and, of course, the Grande Punto and the Linea (Fiat). So why is this the case that a Fiat engine in a Fiat car fails to sell as well as a Fiat engine in, say, a Maruti or a Tata vehicle? Understandably, then, its not only the engine that makes a car desirable, its also the things that surround the engine. Although the Linea is one of the most beautiful cars to be powered by the MultiJet, its sales have remained low. Fiat has now launched the 2014 edition of the sedan, which gets a thorough facelift and a major interior update. We figure out how good Fiats latest effort to push the sales of the Linea is; remember, the Linea faces competition from the Honda City, Hyundai Verna and Skoda Rapidcars that are no pushovers.
Not as flashy as the Verna, not as timeless as the Rapid, and not as futuristic as the City, yet the design of the Linea stands outit is clean, curvy and the facelift does a great job of giving the Linea a more premium look. There is a lot of chrome trim all around and the two-slat front grille looks striking. At the back, the number plate is now on the boot lid. The front and rear bumpers look fresh, as do the new alloy wheels. The car doesnt look vastly different from the sides thoughthe only change being ORVMs that have side-indicators on them.
Open and shut the doors of the Linea and you will find that it is built like a tank. The thud sound the doors produce are a testimony to its exceptional build quality. The Linea was and remains a solid European car. Step inside and you will see that Fiat has completely reworked the cabin. The colour schemeblack and beigeis a treat for the eyes. The in-cabin lighting is a warm orange glow and the new dials look smart. The digital trip computer provides a lot of information, including trip readings, distance-to-empty figure, average speed, average fuel-consumption and real-time fuel-efficiency.
There is ample space all around, though some tall people sitting at the rear may find their head

Why We Love Modern Tables
Tables are much more than just flat hard surfaces. In the home or office, they are social network sites, places where people come together, where they share a meal or cup of coffee, connect and communicate. In the process, these designer tables can't help but make a noteworthy aesthetic statement. Round, square or rectangular, tall or short, metal, plastic or wood, and with drawers for storage or sleekly without, modern tables are there to serve in more ways than one.
Where Modern Tables Work Best
In the living room, an accent table is the piece around which chairs, sofas and other furnishings are arranged. And what good would a dining room be without a modern dining table from the likes of Fritz Hansen or Gus Modern? These decorative table options make a statement in the dining room while also being completely functional for family dinners and get-togethers. Finally, along the sides of a sofa or bed, petite side tables provide an additional useful surface, storage and decorative pop.
Other Great Options
If you love these contemporary tables, then you'll love the entire line of modern furniture available at Lumens including sofas, lounge chairs and options to spruce up your outdoor living area. If you could use more organization or need a modern table on wheels, check out the selection of shelving and home storage solutions. And around your table, an assortment of modern chairs underneath a decorative chandelier will complete the room's arrangement.

Your tech guys know there is a problem, but I get the feeling it isnt the most important thing on their plate.
john, as long as you are in tampa, why don't you see if you can get kazmir to talk about the contract extension the d-rays are trying to get him to sign or if he has any regrets over 'the trade" in '04
I am 44 years old and have been a Met's fan since the third grade, when I rebeled against my Yankee breathing-eating-sleeping family. I have seen the Mets do a lot of things, but this might have been the strangest. I have seen the Mets ruin too many careers rushing people up early (Generation K, Jay Payton etc). I have seen them trade away leaders (Seaver) and young guys (It still hurts). I was all for sending Milledge, Pelfrey and Burgos to AAA for one last season or even half a season and in order to get their innings and/or at bats. Anyway, I actually like how it ended up. The key was that Chan Ho Park did a stand up act and accepted a demotion to AAA. Most egostisical athletes would have whined, asked to be traded or asked for extra money. Park is staying as insurance and I am proud the Mets signed him. The way he pitched yesterday he could be a starter in almost any club. Go Mets! We are going all the way.
Saw your article today. Good job.
By the way do you take the pics also? It was nicely framed.
WHy did the Mets sign Ledee to a minor league deal?
To Dave: (RE: Tech problems): Believe me, this is frustrating for everybody. Nobody is happy this is happening. From my end, there's times I don't know if what I post will get on. What's worse, is not being able to get your responses. That's the whole purpose of the blog in the first place. The fear is you'll give up. Please don't. We'll work this out.
To bcuster (RE: Kazmir): Matter of fact, I did talk with Kazmir this morning. No regrets on the deal. He said he wasn't ready at the time and knew Mets were shopping for a vet because they were contending at the time.
To TLC (RE: Ledee): No reason not to sign him. He doesn't cost them much and nobody knows how things will turn out. Why not stockpile reserves when you can?
Ricky Ledee will stroke the game-winning hit in the pennant-clinching game.

He is only 6 months, this is what is normal and expected. I would be worried if he was 6 years and that clingy. If he wasnt attached, wouldnt that hurt? think of it that way.posted 02/13/2012 by mari00404
I know this isnt what you want to hear, but what is the real harm in this? He will grow into independence in less than a year and not want you near him. He will want to do everything by himself and the closeness you share now will definitly help when you are trying to reason with a young toddler. If he is that close to you now, and stays that way then when he sees he has upset you it will mean more to him. I have had two toddlers adn the first was this way. The second I was determined not to spoil adn he and I do not have that close bond, as a result he does not listen to me nearly as well as my first did. I blame it on the critical bondign time from birth to 12 months that I was so concerned with not poiling him that I lost that really close connection. I think you should try not to lose this connection. There are many parent that would love to have that bond. You are the single, most important person in this little guy's life, and always will be.posted 02/13/2012 by a BabyCenter Member
Your son sounds very sweet and affectionate. He is probably experiencing separation anxiety, but that's normal. I would start with distracting him with a toy or engaging activity but give him pats on the back and hugs and kisses every now and then to soothe his need for closeness.posted 02/13/2012 by KandJstone

This is a "recreation" of the sounds heard at the beginning of the "Alice in Wonderland" Superbowl TV spot. I used Jobro's Cinematica 7 in reverse and Timbre's Bass Drum and Discordant Bells.

The couple both got ready in San Francisco (Alison at the Laurel Inn and Bryan at a private home) before having their first look at Lyon St. steps. They did almost all of their bridal party and couples portraits at Lyon St. steps, which was just a short drive from their ceremony site, Inspiration Point in the Presidio. After their ceremony, all guests walked across the street to the Presidio Hills Golf Course for the reception.
Alison used a rich red, black and white color palette, which she pulled together in a number of sweet details, such as the groomsmen socks, a signature cocktail, and her shoes which coordinated perfectly with her bridesmaids' dresses. The city of San Francisco was also an important part of their day as guests were treated to gorgeous views from Inspiration Point. It's where Alison and Bryan met and started their relationship so having such a quintessential San Francisco wedding seemed fitting.

S639F won't power on, won't charge
I have an S639F that's about 9 months old. Three days ago, I found that it wouldn't power on, or charge when I plugged it in, either to the computer or the mains. I'd been using it the previous weekend and I think I let the battery discharge completely.
According to Sony's support site, if the battery has completely discharged, it won't recharge through a computer's USB port because "PCs USB with 5V/500mA set up has not enough power to start up the charging process because loading current is greater than the set up, therefore USB is disabled immediately due to sudden current load." They say that the remedy is that "the supplied AC adaptor must be used firstly because it is providing 5V/800mA power. After a couple of minutes the unit can be connected to PC without problem then it can continue the charging during file transfer, etc."
Of course, an AC adapter wasn't supplied with the player. I'd been using a Lupo 1000mA USB Power Adapter to charge the battery -- I just plug the USB cable into the adapter. However, this won't work to recharge the battery either.
Has anybody else encountered this problem? Is it possible that the battery has died (it was holding a charge just fine up to last weekend)? Is is worthwhile buying the official Sony wall-charger, i.e. is that likely to work when the USB adapter didn't?
Thanks for any advice.

That may work, but how much would that cost? Unlikely, also, if your own charger doesn't work.
If it's under a year, send it back.
Well here is the thing, due to the fact I own both an A1000 and A3000, I have the AC adapters that shipped with both devices, the model name is AC-S508U.
the input is all world, output is 800mA DC 5V which means this would work on the S630. If you can find a charger that does 800mA and 5V then this should work.
I have use my charger in europe a lot when I traveled, it is handy when you have no USB to charge off.
I have never had this issue occur on my 818, but again perhaps the 630s are different? As Dreamnine said if it is still under warranty send it back because the battery should not have died in such a short period of time. Unless one can fry or damage the battery when using a too large of a charge ie 1000mA?
-Ascariss - Sony Crew
Thanks, Dreamnine and Ascariss. You're right, sending it back is indeed the most sensible option. Ascariss, my brother-in-law, who works with electronics and computer hardware, says that the 1000mA from the USB charger ought not to have had any adverse effect on the battery. Too much voltage, on the other hand, could indeed fry it.

Are they early braxton hicks or baby pushing/moving?
How early can you feel braxton hicks? I had lots of braxton hicks with my first 2 pregnancies, but more towards the end, and it was very obvious it was those, and not just baby pushing or rolling around. I'm 21 weeks along, and I have been feeling a lot of baby movement. Obvious kicking etc. For a while I thought I was also feeling the baby push out against my belly, or even rolling or turning, sometimes high, sometimes low. But now, sometimes I wonder if these are early braxton hicks contractions?? Wierd that I'm not sure of the difference?

sounds like kicks n punches to me :) braxton hicks is when your entire uterus feels like hardened ball lasts maybe 2 minutes then slowly relaxes back to normal.posted 06/20/2012 by tashstar
It sounds like you just may have a really active little one :) I know when I was pregnant with my daughter, she was ALWAYS moving. Rolling around and kicking constantly. In comparison, my son only stretched mostly while I was pregnant with him. :)posted 06/20/2012 by peanutwitt

Professional Standards
Each of these degree programs (BFA, MusB, MFA, MM) emulates the ethics and standards of its professional discipline. Students are expected to pursue their courses of study and conduct themselves in a manner consistent with each program's criteria.
Professional Conduct Standards
All students are expected to comply with the policies and regulations established by Purchase College and their respective programs. College policies governing student conduct are outlined under Academic and Professional Integrity and in the Community Standards of Conduct, which are published in the Purchase College Student Handbook (www.purchase.edu/studenthandbook).
In the BFA, MusB, MFA, and MM programs, prompt attendance and preparation for all prescribed classes, studios, labs, tutorials, workshops, rehearsals, concerts, and performances are mandatory. Unexcused absences, tardiness, or lack of preparation indicates a lack of seriousness or interest in the program and constitutes a serious breach of professional conduct. Students should consult individual conservatory or school handbooks for the complete professional conduct guidelines for their program.
Professional Conduct Probation and Dismissal
Grounds for professional conduct probation, suspension, or dismissal in the BFA, MusB, MFA, and MM programs include breaches of professional conduct, lack of artistic growth (where relevant), or failure to make satisfactory progress advancing through program requirements. Before being placed on professional conduct probation, a student may be warned informally, but such a warning is not required. The director/chair of the school/conservatory formally notifies the student of the professional conduct probation via email to the student's Purchase College address and regular mail to the student's home address. The notification specifies the areas of concern and the corrective measures required.
Failure to satisfy the terms of probation may result in dismissal from Purchase College. While dismissal is normally preceded by a probationary period, a serious breach of professional conduct may lead to immediate dismissal. Professional conduct dismissal decisions are the prerogative and responsibility of the director/chair of the school/conservatory, in consultation with the board of study.
Copies of all letters relevant to warning, probation, and dismissal are placed in the student's file, and immediate notification is forwarded to the student. Probation and dismissal letters are forwarded to the registrar. Dismissal letters are also forwarded to the Offices of Student Financial Services, Student Affairs, Academic Affairs, and Residence Life.
Students' Right to Appeal
A student may appeal a professional conduct probation or dismissal to the appropriate dean, who will confirm or reverse the decision of the director/chair after reviewing all relevant materials. (Refer to the Academic Review Committee and Midterm Warning section for appeals of academic dismissals.)
Any updates to these policies during 2016–2018 will be available on the College Policies site (www.purchase.edu/policies).

I find fashion more exciting than ever because I have never encountered so many diverse faces in ad campaigns. I don't think this is simply a case of tokenism – these models are appearing over and over again with other models of color within the SAME ad campaign (gasp!). More
While the fashion industry has a long, long way to go before women of color are fairly represented, it's great to know that we're getting closer. More

Hurricane Sandy was undeniably bad. It left thousands without food, water or power, and knocked a bunch of people on their asses who were already clinging to a precarious existence. Thankfully, the good folks at Vogue are here to pretty up all that unsightly damage with top models in thousand dollar ball gowns. No, really! Vogue's February issue features a beautifully shot Annie Leibovitz editorial consisting of well-dressed young women hanging out with various first responders. I'm glad Vogue helped raise money for hurricane relief, but does that give them license to do something this gross? Or maybe I'm wrong, and expensive fashion and poverty stricken disaster areas are just two great tastes that taste great together. How do you feel? More
The Cannes Film Festival: still a thing that is happening. Here's a staggering round-up of all the Cannes red carpet stuff that happened since our last Cannes gallery. Diane Kruger is still there (and still beautiful) along with Jessica Chastain, Mia Masikowska, Eva Longoria, Naomi Watts and more. Also, a bunch of models have landed (Natasha Poly, Bianca Balti, Liu Wen, Barbara Palvin) and the famewhores are still trying (Phoebe Price!). More
We're always surprised by which designer collaborations cause a stir and which don't: Versace for H&M inspired mass hysteria, Jason Wu for Target sold out in five minutes, but we browsed Giambattista for Macy's and it was downright serene.

Here's some campaign shots, which have that dreamy, lush suburbia quality that Sofia Coppola always seems to be after. Coppola, by the way, was originally said to be shooting the campaign, but FGR says these were shot by Markus Jans, which we assume means Coppola's shooting television spots.

I just want to say that the canapes at the Estee Lauder presentation Ashley and I attended were fantastic. Really, superb. These lovely little sashimi things on rice cakes. Just great!

I am a Jean Paul Gaultier fangirl. Still, I wasn't completely sold on the idea of "punk" (mohawks, tartan, fishnets) meets "can-can" (full skirts and ruffles galore!), as was Gaultier's description of his idea for Spring 2011 couture. At first glance, the collection struck me as a little too much in a few too many places, but if you squint past the crazy couture-spectacle details (that are part of the fun anyway) you can spot Gaultier's bread and butter: razor sharp lines, immaculate tailoring, and a whole lot of good humor.

People always tell the truth even when they are lying through their teeth because as Freud showed a long time ago, the unconscious is very powerful and given to eruptions like the earthquake faults beneath us.
Eric Garcetti is a prime example, proof of what I say, because he is so self-conscious, so contrived, rehearsed and scripted, in almost everything he says that the truth slips out under his breath or in a throwaway line as it did when he was blowing smoke Tuesday to obscure what the controversial Hollywood Community Plan Update was really about.
It's about high-density skyscrapers subsidized by taxpayers for the benefit of developers cashing in on the billions of dollars in previous taxpayer investment to restore Hollywood to a measure of its former glory.
Hollywood is just the beginning. Six more community plan updates – a cynical device to get around environmental laws — will be rolling out soon to revamp land use and zoning rules to allow high-density development in your neighborhood.
The excuse for increasing density is proximity to a transit corridor which includes just about anything from rapid buses, light rail or subway stops.
So when they ask you to make permanent in November the half-cent sales tax increase for the subway-not-quite-to -the-sea, you should understand it's not to build an efficient public transit system. It's to build skyscrapers in your neighborhood.

Feb. 14, 2000
You had to feel for the guy, because what they were asking him to do just wasn't fair.
But then you looked around and saw there was no other choice. For better or worse, for taller or shorter, someone was going to have to get out there.
Chris Crosby stood at 6-foot-6, and he stood behind the three-point arc. And every night some unlucky guy was going to have to step out there and try and guard him. Some high school kid with small-forward size.
It just wasn't fair.
On most prep teams Crosby would have been restricted to the low block, but not at Chatfield High in Littleton, Colo. Nope, Chatfield didn't need him down there muddling things up. Not with a 7-foot center and two ominous power forwards, one 6-foot-8, the other 6-foot-6. Down low Crosby would just be a waste. A waste, because unlike the others Crosby was developing a deadly outside shot.
It was that lethal stroke that led to the honorary title "Mr. Basketball" for Class 5A Colorado hoops when Crosby was a senior. It was that long-range threat that WSU quickly recruited. It was that net-kissing accuracy that made Crosby the Cougars' second-leading scorer as a sophomore and junior. And it was that perimeter prowess that stood out as one of the inescapable strengths that Paul Graham inherited when he took over as Cougars head coach in March of 1999.
Yet what stood out more was what Graham hadn't inherited: size. He had a pocket full of shooters, but few to corral any rebounds. And as Graham and Crosby examined the roster, one thing became glaringly obvious. A change had to be made.
"I grew up wanting to play the swing position because I would watch Michael Jordan and he was 6-6 and a two-guard," Crosby said. "I remember in high school knowing that there was no way that at 6-6 I could play the post and make it to the NBA. That's really when I stared working on my shot and trying to become a good shooter...But my high school team was taller than the team we have now, so I knew what had to happen."
This time you had to feel for Crosby, because what Graham was asking him to do just wasn't fair.
After four years of high school, after three years of college, after seven total years of being a shooter, Crosby had to give it up to play the post.
In high school, Crosby was almost too big for the perimeter. In college, although now listed at 6-foot-8, he was undersized underneath. But he (along with newcomer Brian Whitehead) was the second-tallest guy on the team. Like it or not, Crosby was going to have to spend his senior campaign leading a team with a new coach and a new offense, while playing a position he didn't know.
"I feel like a freshman at times," Crosby said. "It's almost like learning to play basketball again when you are learning a whole other position."
Crosby has accepted his new role without a single complaint. Still hopeful of playing professionally in the future, he vowed to not think about what was being taken from his game, but to concentrate on what was being added.
"It scared me a little bit, but it kind of excited me," Crosby said. "It was something I wanted to do. I didn't want to be known as just a shooter, I wanted to be able to do more than one thing. And I knew that just being known as a shooter wouldn't help my aspirations to play basketball after college."
Often outsized -- surely inexperienced -- Crosby has not only been educated this season, he's been humbled, too.
"I'm so used to chasing guys around screens the past few years that I never really had the proper respect for those guys down low having to guard big people," Crosby said. "It wears on your body. I get done with games and my body just hurts from banging around underneath...It just beats you up. I hadn't anticipated it being that difficult and that physical. I have a whole new respect for those guys now."
Slowly but surely, Crosby has shown potential in the post. Halfway through the season, Crosby had reduced his turnovers while increasing his rebounding. In general, his game is more well-rounded today than it ever has been, as he demonstrated in WSU's heartbreaking overtime loss to Oregon, Jan. 22.
Crosby poured in a team-high 25 points in the one-point loss. He hit four three-pointers, but scored inside as well. He made his way to the free throw line where he was perfect in eight attempts. He pulled down six rebounds. He did everything he could to get the Cougars a win.
"When I got done with that game, even though it hurt to lose, I was satisfied with the fact that I felt I had played a complete game," Crosby said. "I felt like I finally had been able to see all that work in practice carry over to the game. For so long in October and November I'd go home and wonder if I could really do this stuff, but the Oregon game showed that my hard work paid off."
These are the victories Crosby must be satisfied with. It's difficult, Crosby admitted, when such dedication in practice doesn't translate into checks in the win column. And it's bittersweet, he said, to know that while a great foundation is being laid in WSU basketball, he won't be around to enjoy the finished product.
"As a player you want to leave on a high note," Crosby said. "I want to leave it on the floor every night. I don't want any regrets. I don't want to look back ten years from now and wonder, 'What if?'"
It's a shame that an athlete coming into his own as a player would be forced to hang up his shoes. Collegiate athletics does that sometimes. And after all this, when it becomes Crosby's day to walk away, you'll have to feel for the guy, because sometimes what we're asked to do just isn't fair.
STILL GOING: Crosby's WSU career may be coming to a close, but that doesn't mean that this is the last of his basketball days. Whether in the United States or overseas, Crosby is still working toward his childhood dream of playing professionally. "If you think about it, to be able to go out and play a kids' game and get paid money for it, what more of a greater job could you ask for?" Crosby said. "Whether it's for twenty years or one year, I can look back and say that I played professional basketball. It may not have been at the highest level, but it's still professional basketball and I'm taking home a paycheck. I'm not ready to call it quits. I feel like my career is unfinished. There are still things out there that I want to accomplish in basketball. I'm just not ready to get on to the real world and work 9-to-5 everyday. I have my whole life to do that."
WHEN IT'S TIME TO STOP: While he may have hooked his current dream wagon on professional basketball's star, Crosby - a business major - is more than ready to take on the world by more white collar means. Although, not too white collar. "My dream is to make enough money, where I could be co-owner of a golf course," Crosby said. "I'd love to be able to just sit back and run it and play golf all day." And by "all day" he means it. After all, basketball isn't the only sport he wants to go pro in. "I want to make senior tour by the time I'm 50," Crosby said. "I figure I've got about 30 years to work on that goal."
A GAME TO REMEMBER: All athletes strive for perfection, but few get close. Crosby was within an eyelash of actual perfection Dec. 21, 1998 in a game against border rival Idaho. In what he called his best game ever, Crosby played 34 minutes putting up 17 shots, including ten from behind the arc. He missed only once from the three-point line, four times overall, and finished with 38 points as WSU won 84-69 - one of only ten wins on the season. More than a year later, Crosby said he is still amazed by the night. "The more I look at it, to make nine out of 10 threes in a game (is amazing)," he said. "There is a difference between making nine threes and nine-of-ten threes in a game. I look back and that's something that I'll probably never be able to duplicate. That's one of those games that you just sit back and take it. There are so many ups and downs in basketball that when a day like that happens you just have to sit back and enjoy it. I was having so much fun that game, not just because I was making shots, but because I was so relaxed and so calm. When I got the stat page after the game I couldn't believe it said nine out of 10. I mean what can you say? I just shot the ball really well, I guess."
SOMETHING TO PROVE: The departure of head coach Kevin Eastman left Crosby confused about his future at WSU, Crosby said. Coming up on his senior year, Crosby would have rather polished his game than rebuilt it, but it took only one meeting with Coach Graham to change his mind about leaving WSU. "I was really confused and frustrated and I was looking to go other places," Crosby said. "I didn't' know who they were going to hire here. When they hired Coach Graham and I had a chance to sit down and talk to him one-on-one, it was simple, I knew I wanted to play basketball for him." But in with the new meant out with the old, and that meant a lot of changes in Crosby's approach to basketball. However, thanks in part to some encouragement by Graham, Crosby realized he had areas of his game that not only needed improving, but just plain proving. "I'm banking on the fact that I can shoot the ball," Crosby said. "I know I can shoot the ball, other coaches know it, other teams know it, scouts know it, fans and everybody that comes to the games know I can shoot. But do they know that I can rebound? Do they know that I can get a guy open? Do they know I can play defense? Do they know I can score going off the dribble, or score in the post? Do they know I can do all that? And that's what I need to prove I can do if I want to play after college...This year I'm probably playing more for respect, and doing everything I possibly can to give myself a chance to play basketball beyond college."

Hello Fellow Bikers!
I'm in the early stages of planning an unsupported ride from Alaska to Oregon starting in mid-September 2012. I'm originally from Hillsboro, OR, and I work on a commercial fishing boat in Valdez, AK for the summers. So I thought this next year, why not bike home to see my family??!!
While the idea of doing this ride alone sounds fantastic to me, to the people who love me it sounds insane So I promised that I would look for someone willing/able to make the trip (or part of it) with me. If you or someone you know might be interested on embarking on this adventure with me, let me know!!!!
Here's a rough map of the route I'm planning: http://g.co/maps/55efm. I plan on 30 days of riding, with the possibility of 2-night stays in a few of the prime spots. The last 34 mile leg, we'd be joined in Vernonia, OR by a group of my friends/family that also like to cycle.
I'm very easy going, and I would welcome any good company! But knowing that not every pairing is a good fit, here's a little about me to help you make a decision:
-24 year old female web designer/fisherman/nanny/caregiver/whatever sounds fun
-Travel is a lifestyle for me, and I thrive on new experiences
-I've lived overseas for most of my adult life
-I like to "stealth" camp with my Hennessy Hammock, but if you have a tent and want to stay in campgrounds, that's not a problem with me
-I also use CouchSurfing/Hospitality Club/Warm Showers wherever possible (fantastic ways to meet great new people!)
-I really like to cook good, healthy food so I don't plan to eat in restaurants often
-This will be my first-ever long ride! Though bicycle is my main mode of transport wherever I am, I've never done anything more intense than a single-day century ride... but that's all about to change
Well, I guess that's all for now. Suggestions, comments, and questions are heartily welcomed!! I hope to learn a lot from you all!

Ferguson hails new boy Powell
It was a dream debut for 18-year-old, Nick Powell, who wasted no time in endearing himself to the Old Trafford supporters by firing a low drive from the edge of the box to cap off the emphatic victory for Manchester United on Saturday.
Manager Sir Alex Ferguson has hailed the instant impact, and said there is a lot more in store for Powell.
"He's going to be a really good player, the boy," Sir Alex told MUTV. "He's got two good feet and he can strike a ball."
Powell confessed to being nervous ahead of his debut, but showed calmness and composure to sell the Wigan defence a dummy before burying his effort.
"I was a bit scared when I first stepped out. It was a great feeling to score," Powell said.
United looked to have made the perfect start to match as referee Michael Oliver awarded a penalty for a foul by Al-Habsi on Danny Welbeck in the sixth minute.
However, Javier Hernandez's spot-kick was saved by the Oman international and it would take another 45 minutes of football before United finally opened the scoring, with Sir Alex blaming a slow start on the penalty miss.
"It wasn't a great penalty," Ferguson told reporters. "It can affect you a little bit in the sense you think you're having a good start but have to start again.
"We had a lot of strikes on goal in the first half without scoring. Danny Welbeck, in particular, had five strikes on goal."
Ferguson's Wigan counterpart Roberto Martinez, however, was furious with the decision to award a penalty, adamant that Al-Habsi had made no contact with Welbeck.
"He (Welbeck) dived, he dived for the penalty, you'll see it on the replay," Martinez said.
"The penalty was as bad a decision as you're going to see. It is a shocking decision, in many ways you find yourself fighting against a mountain.
"I've come to United three times now, we've had three players sent off, we just never seem to be measured in the same manner.
"(Welbeck's) last challenge was over the top of the ball, it was reckless, it's dangerous, it's a red card."

NL Game 16
Wilson Safe Company
Yankees 10

Joey Lewis, John Manos, Chris Urffer, Owen McGovern, Andrew Wilson and Josh Yoon all contributed to the Yanks first victory of the season.

Coming Down
After your successful completion of the mission Politics from Stubbs, you'll receive a frantic phone call from your sort-of-ex-girlfriend Ashley. Apparently she's holed-up in a crackhouse and wants your assistance. You drive to the scene (familiar to GTAIV main-story players as Dwayne Forge's neck of the woods) and you're told to seek her out on the second floor. Upon arriving, you're attacked by a band of drug addicts equipped with either very basic weapons (pistols, baseball bats, etc) or bare fists. Mowing through these foes rather easily, you find Ashley in the back part of a drug-addled apartment on a mattress atop the floor. After a brief cutscene, you're required to escort her off the premises and drive her back to her rundown apartment. In a cutscene, she expresses the desire to just pick up and leave forever and ride off into the sunset with Johnny. Johnny, knowing how Ashley is and fully aware of her addictions, takes none of this seriously and instead leaves her to her misery in the apartment. With that, the mission ends.

TUSCALOOSA, Ala.- The University of Alabama football team was able to work under much more comfortable conditions on Wednesday afternoon, as the team went through the paces of its second official practice of the 2006 season in Tuscaloosa.
"It was obviously a lot cooler out here today so the guys moved around better," head coach Mike Shula said. "We spent a little bit longer conditioning today than we did yesterday for that reason. Tomorrow we work in shorts and shoulder pads."
The blazing sun and 100-plus degree heat index readings from Tuesday's opening workout were replaced by an overcast sky and a cool breeze, making for a much more endurable day for players and coaches alike. Like yesterday, however, the players wore helmets, t-shirts and shorts per NCAA rules.
Alabama went through its workout in less than three hours and will return to the field on Thursday afternoon at 4:30 p.m. With the exception of two scrimmages in Bryant-Denny Stadium to be held later this month, all practices are closed to the general public.

Players On Plays is a feature here at CelticsHub where we ask a player to talk about a particularly notable play. A play that makes us say, "play on, playa."
Courtney Lee breaks down one of the plays of the game in the Celtics win against the Raptors on Wednesday. He also gives a special shout out to one of my all-time favorite cinema characters.

Europa League preview: Basel v Chelsea
Chelsea will be flying the flag for England when they go away to Basel in their UEFA Europa League semi-final first leg on Thursday.
English Premier League teams Tottenham and Newcastle United both bowed out at the quarter-final stage, leaving Chelsea as the country's sole representative in the last four.
Chelsea were not entirely convincing as they advanced to the semi-finals courtesy of a 5-4 aggregate win over Russia's Rubin Kazan.
With Chelsea out of contention in the Premier League, UEFA's second-tier competition is their only chance to claim silverware this season.
And if Rafael Benitez's men overcome the Swiss champions, last season's UEFA Champions League winners would be on track to become the first team to claim UEFA's two club tournaments, in reverse order, in successive seasons.
However, Chelsea will need to get past a Basel outfit that have continued to impress this term.
Basel edged Tottenham 4-1 on penalties to reach the semi-finals and if they manage to book a trip to the final in Amsterdam, they would become the first Swiss team to advance to a UEFA club tournament final.
Murat Yakin's troops are the only reigning domestic champions left in the competition.
Basel have not tasted defeat on home soil in the UEFA Europa League this season and will be buoyed by the fact that Chelsea have lost their last two away fixtures in Europe.
Thursday's encounter will be the first meeting between the two clubs but Chelsea have faced Swiss opposition before, losing 2-1 on aggregate to St. Gallen in the first round of the 2000/01 UEFA Cup.
As for Basel, they've played English opposition on 18 occasions - winning three of those and losing eight.
