Florida's unemployment rate for August is 11.7 percent, a .2 percent jump from July, according to figures released by the state Agency for Workforce Innovation this morning. Another 16,000 jobs disappeared during the month.
The news isn't all bad, however.
Although 1,084,000 Floridians don't have a job – and those numbers don't include those who've given up looking for work – the state's annual job growth rate is up 0.4 percent, representing an increase of 29,800 jobs from last August.

The Game of the Night is Oklahoma City vs. Miami, but as always, I want to give the NBA undercard some love.
While injuries take it's toll on these teams, New Orleans-Minnesota has some intrigue to it. Anthony Davis is constantly moving up the ranks of the best basketball players in the world, while Kevin Love remains at the top of the "Best PF" perch for me. The Houston-Dallas matchup offers you the stars (Harden, Howard, and Dirk; who should make the all-star game this season.), while Detroit-Atlanta offers you Josh Smith returning to Atlanta for the second time this season. Orlando and Toronto gives you Oladipo (16.1 points, 5.0 rebounds, 4.9 assists in his last 10 games) and Kyle Lowry (a potential 2014 all-star). So yes, while Thunder-Heat will collect most of your attention, keep an eye and ear out on some of the other games.
Not much to say about the Thunder that I haven't already said. Kevin Durant is scorching at the moment, averaging 36.9 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 6.1 assists on 54% shooting for the month of January. So, you know, not bad for the 2014 MVP frontrunner. The more interesting thing is how Oklahoma City's supporting cast is helping Durant as he sets the league ablaze. Kendrick Perkins (#PerkNowitzki) is putting up a modest 5.0 points and 6.5 rebounds, which is an uptick from his 3.5/4.8 averages. Serge Ibaka is now the defender he was perceived to be, constantly swaying defenders from the rim, and quietly defending the rim with ease (opponents are shooting 43.2 percent at the rim while Ibaka is defending it, according to NBA.com's SportsVU Data Tracking). The key is Reggie Jackson (15.3 points, 3.7 rebounds, and 4.0 assists in the month of January. Truth be told, he isn't shooting real well, just 43% from the field), whose ability to attack the rim (46% on drives, and the team averages 8.0 points per game on his drives, per NBA.com's SportsVU) and replace Westbrook in the interim has kept Oklahoma City in the race for the number one seed in the West.
The Miami Heat are also great. LeBron James is averaging a ho-hum 26-7-6 on 57% shooting, the Heat have found success in a Chris Bosh-Chris Andersen lineup (The duo of Bosh and Andersen are have a 23.7 net rating), but ultimately, the Heat thrive when they play LeBron at power forward (the lineup of Chalmers, Allen, Battier, James, and Bosh has a net rating of 17.0, per NBA.com's Media stats). The defense is great, the offensive is stellar, and Dwyane Wade is unreliable at the moment. That being said, the East is very weak, and Miami does look better in other areas. Getting any production of Michael Beasley and Greg Oden counts as a plus, but Norris Cole is a respectable backup point guard, Andersen is giving them productive minutes, and all of their shooters are still contributing. As long as they have that, and LeBron, no reason to be worried about them kicking it to another gear come playoff time.
The Call: Miami 109, Oklahoma City 104. I don't know what Miami we're getting, and that will make the game a bit more unpredictable. Kevin Durant will get his production, even with LeBron guarding him, and vice-versa. Wade played on Sunday against San Antonio, and I'm sure he'll be up to play Oklahoma City. I'm much more interested to see Reggie Jackson's efforts in getting into the lane against the duo of Chalmers and Cole, how Serge Ibaka deals with Chris Bosh, the impact Kendrick Perkins will make, and what Scott Brooks do to manage his minutes.

IFP Markets Sets Opening and Closing Films for 2004 Event
by Eugene Hernandez
A pair of new independent films have been set to bookend this year's IFP Market & Conference, running September 19 - 24 in Manhattan. Brad Anderson's "The Machinist" will open the Market, while Rodney Evans' "Brother to Brother" will serve as a closing night film at the annual event.
Actor Christian Bale stars in "The Machinist," a film that debuted earlier this year at Sundance and was later acquired by Paramount Classics. The film will have a red carpet premiere on Monday, September 20th at New York's Ziegfeld Theater to mark the beginning of the 26th annual IFP Market and Conference. The director and cast are expected to attend the gala kick-off.
Anthony Mackie, last seen in Spike Lee's "She Hate Me," stars in "Brother to Brother," another Sundance debut. The film is set for a theatrical release by Wolfe. The IFP/New York will close this year's Market with a premiere of the film in Harlem on Thursday, September 23rd at the Magic Johnson Theaters.
"With the departure of the IFP Gotham Awards from Market week, we now have an opportunity to really blow out Opening Night," said Michelle Byrd, Executive Director of IFP/New York, in a statement. "We couldn't think of a better launch of our week-long celebration of independent film than by toasting Brad Anderson, an IFP Market alumnus, and celebrating his powerful collaboration with Christian Bale. And once it became clear that Rodney's film would open theatrically a few weeks after the Market, we decided to create a Closing Night event that enabled us to celebrate him, Gordon Parks, Sr. and New York's own Harlem."
Also scheduled to screen during the IFP Market this year is the Canadian production, "Fallen Angels," directed by Scott Smith, starring Miranda Richardson and Callum Keith Rennie. The film will be released by Film Movement.

On Saturday, April 30th, over a thousand student, business, community, and religious leaders from around Illinois packed St. Nicholas of Tolentine Church, a member institution of the Southwest Organizing Project (SWOP), in support of the IL Dream Act, Smart Enforcement Act, the Immigrant Services Line Item and a fair legislative map that reflects immigrant communities.
SWOP, together with the Illinois Coalition for Immigrant and Refugee Rights(ICIRR), organized the action which brought both Speaker Mike Madigan and Senate President John Cullerton together in support of the new legislation and immigrant services. Senator Cullerton is the sponsor of the IL Dream Act, which would create private scholarships for undocumented students and provide training for high school counselors to better assist undocumented students continue their education.
Southwest side State Representative Dan Burke, who is the sponsor the Smart Enforcement Act, also attended the action along with State Representative Edward Acevedo and Senate William Delgado. The Smart Enforcement Act would track the local impact and costs of so-called "Secure Communities" programs, which requires local police to act as immigration enforcement agents. The Smart Enforcement Act would also allow counties to opt out of the program and would bar spending state resources on detaining and deporting non-criminal immigrants. This legislation would allow law enforcement to focus on catching serious criminals and prevent many innocent families from being separated.
Throughout the action at St Nicholas, community leaders passionately shared their testimonies to each issue. Carolina Rivera, SWOP leader from Talman Elementary School, spoke directly to Speaker Madigan and Senator Cullerton regarding the nightmare that families go through because of local police acting as immigration agents and asked the two powerful politicians for their support on the Smart Enforcement Act.
The event came at an opportune time with the IL Dream Act coming up for a vote four days later. The dream act, which had already passed the Illinois House, was passed in the Illinois Senate on Wednesday, May 4th by a vote of 45 for and 11 against.
A group of SWOP leaders traveled down to Springfield to witness the vote. Immigrant rights supporters won a second victory that day when Governor Quinn signed an order terminating participation in Secure Communities in Illinois.The Smart Enforcement Act passed in the house 66-43 vote on Friday, May 6th and is waiting action in the Illinois Senate.

WAILUKU, Hawaii (AP) — Maui police say they don't have any suspects in the case of a pregnant woman who vanished more than a week ago.
Capt. John Jakubczak told reporters at a news conference Tuesday that police have interviewed people who were last in contact with Carly Scott, including her ex-boyfriend.
Jakubczak says the case continues to be classified as a missing person's case.
The expectant mother was last seen Feb. 9 at her sister's Haiku home. Family members said she left the house to help her ex-boyfriend, whose car had broken down on Hana Highway.
Maui Mayor Alan Arakawa says police are doing all they can to find Scott and another Maui woman missing since last month.
He says the community needs to be patient as investigators look into what happened.

Faculty and students
collaborate with McNenny Fish Hatchery to publish research - top
Ongoing research at BHSU that involves faculty members, students and staff members of the McNenny State Fish Hatchery, has resulted in a number of published research articles in fisheries journals.
Dr. Dan Durben, associate professor in the College of Arts and Sciences at BHSU, and Michael Barnes, biologist with the South Dakota Department Game, Fish and Parks, collaborated on research that resulted in the publication of an article titled "Effects of Partial Tank Covers on the Growth of Juvenile Feral Rainbow Trout during Hatchery Rearing." This article was published in the October issue of the
North American Journal of Aquaculture.
Barnes worked with Hans Stephenson, a recent BHSU graduate, and Dr. Mark Gabel, BHSU professor emeritus, to publish an article titled "Microbial Inhibition in Response to Treatments of Hydrogen Peroxide and Formalin on Landlocked Fall Chinook Salmon Eyed Eggs as Determined by Scanning Electron Microscopy" which was also included in the October issue of the
North American Journal of Aquaculture.
Previously, Barnes, Stephenson and Gabel worked together on research that resulted in the publication of an article titled "Use of Hydrogen Peroxide and Formalin Treatments during the Incubation of Landlocked Fall Chinook Salmon Eyed Eggs" in the April 2003 issue of the
North American Journal of Aquaculture.
A group of students worked with Barnes and Dr. Micheal Zehfus, associate professor in the College of Arts and Sciences, to publish "Maternal Liver and Egg Thiamine Concentrations in Chinook Salmon from Lake Oahe in South Dakota" in the June 2003 issue of
Prairie Naturalist. BHSU students involved in this research project included former BHSU students Jonathon Schumacher, Kelly Stock, Fraz Farrokhi, Rebecca Nutter and Robert Hanten.
Barnes, Stephenson and Gabel also published "Use of Low Vacuum Electron Microscopy to Quickly Estimate Bacterial Populations on Incubating
Salmonid Eggs" in the North American Journal of Aquaculature.
Barnes noted the unique collaboration between the university and the state fish hatchery in ongoing research projects. He praises the exemplary research work and contributions of the BHSU faculty and students.
"These students have the opportunity to be involved in the whole science process," Barnes said. "They learn from the research and writing and have a greater understanding of what it takes to publish research."
In recent years, BHSU has increased research opportunities for undergraduate students. Currently there are approximately 50 BHSU students involved in research in a variety of subjects.
Professors present at
Western Literature conference - top
David Cremean, Kent Meyers, and Christine Shearer-Cremean, all members of the Black Hills State University humanities department, recently attended and presented papers at the 2003 Western Literature Association meeting in Houston, Texas.
The conference title and theme was "The West of the 21st Century."
The three BHSU faculty members formed a panel, entitled "Charles Bowden: Probing the Borderlands," about American literary journalist Charles Bowden, who has published numerous books and writes for publications like
Harper's, Mother Jones, and Mountain Gazette, among others.
Cremean, who also moderated the panel, read his paper, "Take It To the Limit, but Don't Take it Easy: Charles Bowden and the Artifice of Borders," arguing for Bowden as a major contemporary American literary figure. His essay attributed a great deal of Bowden's literary value to the author's willingness to act as a modern prophet who tackles hard, dark topics that most journalists refuse to cover and his being a "writer's writer."
Cremean received his master's degree in English from the University of Dayton and his Ph.D. in English from Bowling Green State University. He has been a member of the BHSU faculty since 2002.
Meyers' piece, "Charles Bowden, Marking the Border" discussed Bowden's two major books about the Drug Wars,
Juarez: The Laboratory of Our Future and Down by the River, contrasting them with discussions of South Dakota's own Crockett, the Yellow Lab who has sniffed out numerous drugs and received much media attention. Meyers also underscored the importance of Bowden's literary mission and achievements.
Meyers received his master's degree in English from Washington State University. He has been a member of the BHSU faculty since 1986.
Shearer-Cremean's paper, "The Murdered Women of Mexico in Charles Bowden's
Juarez: The Laboratory of Our Future," dealt predominantly with Bowden's book by that title. Her argument centered on how Bowden's text teams up with Mexican street photographers to form a powerful document that
rehumanizes the women of Juarez, Mexico, who have been murdered while working for the Mexican maquiladoras. Her essay also emphasized the insufficiency of mainline American feminism, due to its materialistic, consumerist center, in dealing with the plights of women in other countries.
Shearer-Cremean received her master's in English from the University of Dayton and her Ph.D. in English from Bowling Green State University. She has been a member of the BHSU faculty since 2000.
Wallerstein publishes
article - top
Dr. Nicholas Wallerstein, associate professor of English at Black Hills State University, has published an article in
The Middle-Atlantic Writers Association Review.
The article, "The Eloquence of Anger in Audre Lorde's Sister Outsider," uses Aristotelian rhetorical theory to analyze
Sister Outsider, one of Lorde's most important prose works.
Wallerstein argues that, on the one hand, a classical rhetorical analysis seems to prove Lorde's craft; on the other, it seems to collide with her labor to signify Black identity. Putting Lorde together with the Aristotelian rhetorical tradition suggests that she is ultimately concerned with an existentialist rather than essentialist portrait of her anger and as such, her writings can be situated within the Western cultural environment.
Wallerstein has taught at BHSU since 1997. He holds a Ph.D. in English from the University of Oregon and a master of theological studies degree from Harvard.
Mass communications students create a video
greeting for 842nd soldiers - top
BHSU mass communications students Sami Stout from Winner, Nikki Underwood from Brookings, Cody Oliver from Lemmon and Gus Karinen from Spearfish review a personalized holiday video greeting that will be sent to members of the 842nd National Guard unit in Iraq.
A group of mass communications students at Black Hills State University used their broadcasting skills to create a video holiday greeting that will be sent, along with other items collected, in a care package for members of the local National Guard unit that is currently stationed in Baghdad.
The video features personal greetings from BHSU students and members of the community. The students used their break in classes on Veteran's Day to create a video that will be sent to the newest group of veterans, the soldiers who are currently serving
with the 842nd unit in Iraq.
"Campus organizations were doing different things for the care package," Cody Oliver, a BHSU student from Lemmon, said. "We have the technology and knowledge, so we decided to personalize our contribution and make a video."
The students videotaped personal greetings from faculty, staff and students on campus as well as group greetings from several Spearfish area businesses.
"We just asked people around town and had a very good response," Oliver said. "Many people were happy to take part in the project."
The students plan to add graphics, holiday music and footage of recent BHSU events including the community group photo taken at Lyle Hare Stadium. The video is narrated by BHSU student Jess Hinker, who is from Forestburg. Gus Karinen, Spearfish, is editor of the project. Other students involved in the production are Roni Ackerman from Belle Fourche; Miranda Huber from Belle Fourche, Nikki Underwood from Brookings, and Sami Stout from Winner.
"I thought the video was an excellent idea. I'm proud of the BH students for being involved," said Joy Carroll, who works at Ketel Thorstenson in Spearfish. "Our entire office was extremely proud to be a part of it."
The Council of Student Organizations at BHSU has been spearheading a campus effort to collect items for the holiday care packages. They are planning to do one collection specifically for the 10 BHSU students and staff members who are deployed and a larger collection for the entire unit to share.
To request a copy of the holiday greeting video contact the BHSU campus television station at 642-6141.

United Ministries, LaMASA (Spanish Club) and the Global Awareness Committee are sponsoring the event. Student leaders are: Kelly Dickey, a freshman political science major from Pierre; Katie Lembcke, a sophomore human services major from Madison; Ben Bryce, a senior education major from Worland, Wyo.; and Laci Schmalz, a freshman art major from Williston, N.D.

BHSU student leads standings at
halfway point of South Dakota Stock Market Game - top
A Black Hills State University student is leading the state standings with an impressive Return on Investment (ROI) of
16.22 percent at the halfway point of the fall 2003 session of the South Dakota Stock Market Game (SDSMG).
A total of 371 students on 136 teams representing 13 South Dakota schools are participating in this semester's SDSMG. The teams started the
10-week trading period Oct. 6 with $100,000 in "play" funds. The student teams, ranging from
three to five students per team, research companies on the Internet and decide in which stocks to invest. All trading is done on-line and team portfolios and divisional rankings are updated daily.
The top team portfolios in the high school, college and elementary/junior high divisions after week five follow. For comparison purposes, $100,000 invested in the major stock market indices at the start of the game would have yielded: Dow Jones Industrial Average,
2.49 percent or $102,490; Standard & Poor's 500 Index, 2.23
percent or $102,230; and NASDAQ Composite Index, 4.78 percent or $104,780.
The SDSMG is an educational program that motivates students to learn in subjects such as social studies, math, business, computers, economics and accounting. The game is sponsored by the Securities Industry Foundation for Economic Education, the South Dakota Council on Economic Education and the Centers of Economic Education at Black Hills State University and the University of South Dakota.
The Spring 2004 SDSMG will begin Monday, Feb. 13 and conclude the 10-week trading period Friday, Apr. 23.

Arrive in Bandar Seri Begawan and transfer to the hotel for an afternoon at leisure. Gather this evening for a welcome dinner and briefing, overnight at the hotel.
Today tour the sultanate of Brunei, a small monarchy encompassing both the capital city of Bandar Seri Begawan and villages. Visit the Brunei Museum with its displays of tribal artifacts and Islamic art and the Royal Regalia Building which highlights the history and memorabilia of the Sultan's family legacy. Make a photo stop at one of Brunei's most magnificent mosques and the Sultan's Palace. After lunch board boats for a tour of a "water village" where you will visit a traditional Malay home. Continue to the port of Muara to embark the Odyssey.
Visit the highlights of Kota Kinabalu, the capital of Sabah, including the iconic Tun Mustapha Tower, Sabah State Mosque, and the Sahah Museum. The Heritage Village displays replicas of traditional houses and the colorful costumes of the people of North Borneo. Or, travel to the countryside for a cultural tour of traditional Batangan Village followed by a mangrove cruise. Return to the ship for lunch and spend the afternoon at sea, as your lecture series begins.
This morning drive through the modern city of Sandakan, set on a beautiful natural harbor. Pass colorful markets and a water village on your way to an area of lowland rain forest, home to the Sepilok Orangutan Rehabilitation Center. Here, beneath a cathedral-like canopy, watch young orangutans as they swing through the trees to a feeding platform. These gentle arboreal apes, often orphans, are rehabilitated and taught to live in the wild before eventual release into their natural habitat.
Arrive in the oil-producing city of Tarakan this afternoon and board local boats for the journey up the Kayan river to visit a traditional Dayak village. The Dayak are native to Borneo, and includes over 200 river- and hill-dwelling ethnic sub-groups, each with its own dialect, customs, and culture. On arrival enjoy a warm greeting by decorated villagers in beaded ceremonial attire and elaborate headwear who perform songs and dances.
On beautiful Kakaban Island, have the unique opportunity to snorkel in a crater lake filled with stingless jellyfish. Explore the waters surrounding this uninhabited island paradise, where snorkelers and divers find iridescent reefs covered with gorgonian sea fans and barrel sponges, beautiful nudibranchs, giant clams, and the unusual ghost pipefish.
Attend lectures where your naturalists and historians add insight to cultural and natural encounters.
From Pare Pare, drive into Sulawesi for a two-day exploration of Toraja. As you ascend, the terrain turns into rugged mountains towering over valleys lush with terraced rice paddies, bamboo groves, and grazing water buffalos. The Toraja bury their dead in graves chiseled into vertical cliffsides; beside these honeycombed graves are life-like wooden effigies, providing a receptacle for their souls to guard the gravesites. Walk through several villages and investigate the gravesites, markets, and ornate rice barns of the region. Meals and overnight are at your hotel. The following day, tour more traditional villages as you descend 4,000 feet to the east coast where you will reboard your ship in Papolo in the evening.
Your lecture series continues as you sail toward the Tiger Islands. Spend the afternoon snorkeling and diving among colorful coral reefs.
Komodo National Park is a sanctuary for the fabled prehistoric giant monitor lizard, the Komodo dragon. Walk along a forested pathway to a viewing area for a close inspection of these reptiles which grow up to 10 feet in length and weigh up to 300 pounds. The surrounding forest is home to Javan rusa deer, the favorite prey of the Komodo dragons, as well as elegant yellow-crested cockatoos. In the afternoon enjoy snorkeling, diving, or a glass-bottom boat ride over the undersea spectacle off splendid "pink beach."
Sumba is known for its unique high-peaked architecture, colorful dyed batiks, and elegant woven ikats. At Wanokaredi Village be greeted with a merapu, welcome ceremony, and enjoy a cultural performance of singing and drumming. Then attend one of Indonesia's most unusual traditions — the pasola. This show of horsemanship includes elaborate mock battle scenes, hurling long spears while riding bareback astride galloping horses. Spend the afternoon snorkeling or diving over the fringing reefs.
This morning stop at deserted Satonda, a small circular island that is the ancient cone of a volcano. Snorkel over enchanting reefs that boast more than 64 species of coral, or ascend the ridge to view the island's interior sacred lake. Return to the ship for lunch as your captain positions to Sumbawa Island.
Soaring above the landscape on Sumbawa's north coast, is the massive Tambora Volcano whose 1815 eruption was the largest in recorded history. Zodiacs take you ashore to the small village of Kenanga, home to about 500 traditional Muslim fishermen and their families. You will be greeted with drumming, dancing, and a pole-climbing competition.
For centuries, Bali has captivated the imagination of artists, writers, and travelers with its landscapes of emerald terraced rice fields backdropped by the sacred volcano of Mt. Batur. Disembark in the port of Benoa and drive to Ubud, surrounded by the sacred Monkey Forest, where a large artisan community displays their talents in painting, sculpture, silver-working, and batik. After lunch at a local restaurant, enjoy time at leisure for strolling among the countless galleries, small museums, and artisans' workshops. Transfer to your hotel in the late afternoon for dinner and overnight.
Transfer to the airport for independent flights home.

There are so many fantastic horses throughout the 150 year history of Saratoga Race Course. We are thrilled to be able to honor some of them on items for fans for the 2013 season - a giveaway beer stein and limited edition trading cards. There are so many others we would like to highlight throughout the meet. Follow @NYRAnews #SpaStars for a chance to win prizes each day! You can also check back here to see a new horse added each racing day!
Breeder: John Clay
Owner: John Hunter, William Travers, and George Osgood
Trainer: A.J. Minor
Though we now know Kentucky as a Hall of Fame member, the colt was actually the third choice in the wagering for the first edition of the Travers. A colt named Tipperary was the heavy favorite. He led for much of the 1 3/4 mile race, but Kentucky took over turning for home and finished full of run to win by four lengths. Back at four, the bay colt was regarded as a "foregone conclusion" in the Saratoga Cup, winning by an easy length. He added another Saratoga Cup at five, his nineteenth in what would be a twenty race win streak.
Breeder: Aristides Welch
Owner: Pierre Lorillard
Trainer: William Brown
Hall of Famer Parole found success early at Saratoga, particularly noteworthy since he was still winning stakes races at the age of eight. Wins in the in the Saratoga Stakes and Kentucky Stakes at two confirmed him as the best juvenile of his year. In further years he would take the Sequel, All Ages, Summer and a pair of Saratoga Cups. The gelding, derided as a "Yankee Mule" when shipped to compete in Europe, was called "fast and trustworthy" by The New York Times. It was the Times he lived up to, winning stakes races overseas and retiring as the leading money earner to that time.
Breeder: Woodford & Clay
Owner: Bowen & Company (2), Phil & Mike Dwyer (3-6)
Trainer: James G. Rowe, Sr., Frank McCabe (5)
Jockey: J. McLaughlin
The first thoroughbred to top the $100,000 threshold was a filly, Miss Woodford. The brown filly took the Spinaway as a two-year-old before being acquired by Brooklyn heavyweights Phil and Mike Dwyer. She would go on to star at Saratoga in the Misses' and Alabama. The latter, The New York Times wrote, "the further Miss Woodford went the wider became the gap between the filly and her pursuers." The race was part of an impressive sixteen race win streak that included victories over the best males of her era.
Breeder: Marcus Daly
Owner: James R. Keene
Trainer: James G. Rowe, Sr.
Jockey: Redfern (2), Nicol (3)
Near-perfect Sysonby exceeded the expectations of his early beginnings as a small, plain colt. In fact, he was a bit of foul play away from an undefeated career and was called "possibly the greatest race horse of the American turf," by The New York Times at the time of death. He was perfect at Saratoga, taking the Flash and Saratoga Special at two. When the popular bay returned at three in the Great Republic, the Times called it, "the greatest day ever seen at the Union Avenue Park of the Saratoga Association for the Improvement of the Breed of Horses." Sysonby didn't let the fans down. The win was "tremendously popular," with "prolonged cheering." "Handkerchiefs fluttered in the hands of women, while hats and canes filled the air," as the crowd of at least 20,000 cheered their star.
Breeder: James R. Keene
Owner: James R. Keene
Trainer: James G. Rowe, Sr.
Jockey: Walter Miller
Colin arrived at Saratoga with a five-for-five record… and a cough. He didn't let that slow him. His victory over the previously unbeaten Uncle in the Saratoga Special was called "one of the most remarkable races ever run," by The New York Times. He was called, "The Public Idol," and "the most interesting horse on the American turf," following his win. He came back just four days later to take the Grand Union Hotel Stakes, giving fifteen pounds to the runner-up. Colin never did lose, retiring fifteen-for-fifteen. His trainer, who conditioned over thirty champions, held him in such high esteem that he reportedly said he hoped his epitaph simply read, "He trained Colin."
Breeder: Clay Brothers
Owner: A. Miller
Trainer: A. J. Goldsborough
Jockey: G. Byrne (2), J. Butwell (3-6), F. Robinson (7), A. Schuttinger (7)
Incredibly popular and called "game to the core," by The New York Times, Roamer's lengthy career, largely for owner Andrew Miller and trainer A. J. Goldsborough, included nine Spa wins, including the Saratoga Special, Travers, Saratoga Cup, and three Saratoga Handicaps. On August 21, 1918, in a race against the clock, he was the first to break the 1:35 barrier for one mile. For the effort, he "received an ovation such as…had never been accorded to a horse before."
Breeder: H. P. Whitney
Owner: C. V. Whitney
Trainer: Tom J. Healy
Jockey: R. Workman
Top Flight's brilliant two-year-old year for C. V. Whitney and Tom Healey was one for the ages. Unquestionably the best of either gender, her resume included impressive wins in the Saratoga Special and Spinaway. Her brilliance allowed her to shed a yearling image as a "scrawny little miss…with no great prospects," according to The New York Times. Top Flight returned to Saratoga at three to romp in the Alabama with regular rider Sonny Workman up.
Breeder: Belair Stud
Owner: Belair Stud
Trainer: "Sunny" Jim Fitzsimmons
Jockey: Jimmy Stout
The very first Horse of the Year secured his title largely due to a terrific Saratoga summer. Granville ran three times at the Spa as a three-year-old, winning each one. His tendency to expend as little energy as possible while winning was on display in the Kenner. The son of Gallant Fox cut it close again in a muddy Travers, avenging his sire's infamous loss in the race. His final race of the summer came against just one – a head-to-head match with the older Discovery in the Saratoga Cup. Younger Granville "amazed" the crowd, according to The New York Times, coasting to an eight length win.
Breeder: George D. Widener
Owner: George D. Widener
Trainer: W. F. Mulholland
Jockey: Harry Richards, Don Meade
The most prominent two-year-old at Saratoga in the summer of 1938 was El Chico, but that didn't stop Eight Thirty from making his presence known. The chestnut colt set a stakes record in the prestigious Flash Stakes and was unpopularly disqualified from victory in the Albany.. He was even better at three. Facing older horses in the Wilson Mile, he set another stakes record, propelling him into discussions regarding the best of his crop. Just a few days later, he beat his elders again, taking the Saratoga Handicap. Johnstown, viewed as his chief rival, was scratched from the Travers, leaving Eight Thirty as an overwhelming favorite who didn't disappoint. Although he was originally expected to rest following the win, he instead made his fourth start of the meet. It was another victory, as he rolled in the Whitney as the meet's heaviest favorite.
Breeder: Joseph F. Flanagan
Owner: Kent Miller
Trainer: Kent Miller
Jockey: H. Cruz (4), J. Penrod (4), FD Adams (8, 12-13), J. Rich (10)
There is no horse in the Hall of Fame with more starts than Elkridge. It's not surprising the "King of the 'Chasers" made several of his 123 appearances at Saratoga. The durable gelding, who retired as steeplechasing's leading money earner, had an inauspicious start to his relationship with the Spa, losing his rider in the Shillelah at four. No matter – he collected his first Spa win in his next start. His final Saratoga win would come an amazing eight years later at the age of twelve. He won the Saratoga Handicap, Shillelah, and three North Americans for owner-trainer Kent Miller.
Breeder: Ogden Phipps
Owner: Ogden Phipps
Trainer: "Sunny" Jim Fitzsimmons
Jockey: Eric Guerin, Ted Atkinson
Coal black Busanda wasn't the most consistent horse around, winning only ten of her sixty-five lifetime starts. She was, however, a big fan of the Spa. The first noteworthy victory of her career came when she upset the field in the Alabama. She had the best year of her life at four, a year that included a wire-to-wire win in the Saratoga Cup. At five she went one better. Not only did she defeat the boys in the Saratoga Cup again, but she added the prestigious Diana to her resume. Of course, her most famous accomplishment was still to come – producing the Hall of Famer Buckpasser.
Breeder: John A. Bell, Jr.
Owner: G. D. Widener
Trainer: W. F. Mulholland
Jockey: Eddie Arcaro (2, 3), Eric Guerin (2), B. Green (4)
Anyone purchasing a yearling at the Saratoga Sales hopes to be back the following year to win a race at the historic track across the street. $4,500 yearling purchase Battlefield made those dreams come true. The best of his age at two, the chestnut colt took the Saratoga Special and Hopeful on the way to being crowned champion. He came back to the Spa at three to add the Travers trophy to his collection. In front of a record crowd, his battle with Yildiz through the final stages, "provided plenty of excitement," according to The New York Times. When Battlefield crossed the wire in front, it pushed his earnings to nearly $350,000.
Breeder: Christiana Stables

When Tempted went to post on closing day in 1958, she had never won a stakes race. That was about to change. The chestnut bounded out to the early lead in the Alabama and never looked back as 3-4 A Glitter faded to tenth. She came back at four, the year she was named champion older female, to take the Diana by 5 ½ lengths. The following year, it would be understandable not to back the mare in the same race. She had been well-beaten in her prior two starts. It didn't matter. Tempted scored a "smashing," victory, as described by The New York Times, rolling home by seven. By then, the same paper had noticed what we're pointing out, adding simply, "Tempted likes Saratoga."

F. P. and E. B. Ryan's Quick Pitch is a fairly unique horse in Saratoga history. He was a good flat horse who made his Spa debut as a three-year-old. He ran four times that summer, with a win a three seconds, including a narrow defeat in the Saratoga Cup. The chestnut returned at four, setting a track record the same year he was DQ'd from a Seneca win. At five he won the Bernard Baruch, beating a champion, while at six he took an allowance. In twelve flat starts here, on dirt and turf, he finished worse than second only once. When his age started to show on the flat, his connections tried something new. At seven, he became the country's best hurdle horse. His brilliant 18-length Lovely Night Handicap win, according to Sports Illustrated, demoted Damascus's 22-length Travers win the following day to the week's "second-largest round of applause." The 170lbs Quick Pitch carried, 20-40 more than the rest, was the most carried by any winning American hurdler in history. The big chestnut "with a wild white eye and a fighting, kicking disposition," called "bold and quick" by his trainer didn't just win… he took nearly three seconds off the track record. Even in retirement, the gelding would make the trip to Saratoga for a summer vacation from his Virginia home.

Ogden Phipps' Buckpasser was bred for Saratoga success. Between them, his parents had nine stakes wins at the Spa and his dam was discussed earlier in this series. The Winfrey and later Neloy trainee made them proud. Regular rider Braulio Baeza guided the handsome colt to victory in the Hopeful and Travers. The former was part of a two-year-old campaign that set a record for juvenile earnings. The latter, in which he broke the track record, was ninth in what would become a fifteen race win streak. His victory pushed him over the million dollar mark in earnings, making him the youngest to reach the milestone at the time.

Damascus only made one start at Saratoga, but he made it count. Despite rain, then the second-largest crowd in Saratoga history turned out. As The New York Times pointed out in predicting the large crowd, the reason was obvious, "the fans will want to see a great horse in action." The late-running colt fell far back early, trailing by sixteen at the first call. There was no reason to worry. He caught them. He passed them. And he kept going. Damascus's 22-length margin of victory remains a Travers record.

The prestigious New York Turf Writers Cup is the highlight of the steeplechase season at Saratoga. Only one horse has won it three times - Happy Intellectual. One would think a streak like that would start young, but "Happy" didn't pick up his first until he was ten. At eleven, he carried the great Joe Aitcheson to victory in what would be the Hall of Famer's final stakes win. Aitcheson was retired by the following summer, but the old gelding was back. Happy Intellectual took his third straight New York Turf Writers Cup at the grand old age of twelve.

Hall of Famer Arts and Letters had an inauspicious start to his career and relationship with Saratoga, tiring to fourth in his debut. Things got better from there. He returned to the Spa at three off of consecutive wins in the Met Mile and Belmont Stakes. He started his summer with a ten length win in the Jim Dandy, called an "unqualifiedly impressive showing" by The New York Times. The 100th Travers, the first worth as much as $100,000, was next. The largest crowd of the year was reportedly "pleased and entertained" by the record-tying victory by the "idol of the thoroughbred world."

Very, very few dual-Classic winners have been denied champion three-year-old honors. Riva Ridge is one of them, and Key to the Mint's Saratoga summer is among the reasons why. The three-year-old kicked off his meet in style with a "remarkably easy," win in the Whitney, as described by The New York Times. Braulio Baeza said "he ran a corking race," to leave the field of older horses behind. He came back in the Travers with another terrific effort. "A more fitting setting for the remarkable performance of the Rokeby colt could not have been found," wrote the Times, detailing, "Perfect weather attracted the largest crowd in the history of Saratoga racing."

Perhaps no one made a greater impression in a single Saratoga start than Ruffian. Her Spinaway was the fastest six furlongs by a two-year-old in 111 years of Spa history. The 1:08 3/5 also bettered the stakes record, which had been set on the old Widener straight at Belmont in 1945. Ruffian's margin of victory was also noteworthy. She finished 12 ¾ lengths in front of Laughing Bridge, who had already won two stakes races at the meet. With the bulk of her career still ahead of her, Ruffian left major publications looking for adjectives. The New York Times opted for "majestic…magnificent," and "the wonder filly." SI called her "unbelievable," "astonishing," "effortless," and described her as "striding gracefully … with almost ridiculous ease." It was "one of those rare events that racegoers treasure forever," detailed the great Whitney Tower. Perhaps the greatest praise came from Lucien Laurin, who said, "As God is my judgment, this filly may be better than Secretariat!"

Fio Rito won the Albany as a three-year-old at Saratoga. He also won allowances here at four and five. That pales in comparison to his fifth start at the Spa. Facing horses from connections like Paul Mellon and Ogden Phipps, the Finger Lakes shipper became the very first New York-bred to win a Grade 1 race. The six-year-old gray with an attitude was, as Steven Crist wrote for The New York Times, "a dream come true for upstate breeders and racing fans."

General Assembly was Saratoga perfection. In four starts at the Spa, the chestnut was never defeated. In the process, he took home trophies from some of the meet's most prestigious races and set a track record which still stands. At two, the LeRoy Jolley trainee set a stakes record in the Saratoga Special before wowing the crowd in the Hopeful. The following year, he used an allowance victory to prep for the Travers. His fifteen length win in 2:00 set a stakes and track record in addition to cementing his love of Saratoga. LeRoy Jolley commented after the win, "There has been some talk about making the Saratoga meeting longer. As far as General Assembly is concerned, they should make it a year-round meeting."

It's no surprise that a successful New York-bred may find themselves in the Saratoga winners' circle. Such was the case with Win, the first horse born in the Big Apple to become a millionaire. The gelding turned quite a profit on his $8,000 auction price, retiring with $1,407,210 in earnings. That total still places him among the top-10 for statebreds. Once called a "giraffe-looking thing," by his trainer, Sally Bailie, Win developed into one of the nation's top grass horses. His back-to-back victories in the Bernard Baruch included a defeat of champion Cozzene in the race's fastest renewal in a decade.

Beautifully bred Chief's Crown has a few claims to fame. He's widely known as the very first winner of a Breeders' Cup race. More quirkily, he's the only horse to be defeated as the favorite in all thee Triple Crown races. Here at Saratoga, however, he was just nearly perfect. In four starts, he always crossed the wire in front. He impressed in the Saratoga Special and Hopeful at two, part of a championship campaign. When he returned at three, a disqualification in the Tell continued, as The New York Times put it, a "star-crossed" streak. Steve Christ called the Travers a "day for vindication." Chief's Crown delivered, giving "The King of Saratoga," Angel Cordero, Jr., his only Travers. As Bill Christine wrote, "both horse and man, as though they had booked a passage for two with destiny, ended the ignominy beautifully Saturday."

"Eccentric and speed-crazy," as described by Steven Crist for The New York Times, Groovy made his Saratoga debut at the age of three. Facing older horses on a muddy track, the colt went right to the lead and never looked back, taking the Forego in 1:21 1/5. He came back for the Forego the following year, not as the hot-shot young gun, but on a four-race win streak and regarded as the best sprinter in training. That warranted a hefty assignment of 132 pounds. As Keith Marder explained in the Albany Times Union, "it t would be like Nolan Ryan throwing fast ball with a shot put." The burden didn't bother the chestnut, who led them wire-to-wire for his second straight win in the meet's premiere sprint.

British-bred Steinlen began his career in France, moved to California, and eventually made his way to Saratoga. He took the Budweiser Breeders' Cup at five while giving seven pounds to the runner-up. The following year, he took a division of the split opening day feature, the Daryl's Joy. Wheeled back just eleven days later, giving weight, and trying to prove himself at 1 1/8, Steinlen rolled home in the Bernard Baruch, then a Grade 1, by five lengths. When he returned at seven as the reigning Eclipse Award winner for champion grass horse, he joined the legendary ranks of "Graveyard of Champions" victims. Giving sixteen pounds to the winner, he finished second at 3-10.

You know you made an impression at the Spa when they name a stakes race after you. Such is the case with Quick Call. Over four consecutive years, he won a total of nine races at Saratoga, including back-to-back years with three wins apiece. At three, that total tied him for most wins at the meet with stablemate Crivitz, a feat which secured the leading trainer title for Sidney Watters, Jr. Quick Call was a perfect three-for-three at four, culminating in a victory in the prestigious Forego. The gelding "only" won two Saratoga races at five, but again prevailed in the meet's premiere sprint race. The following year's Forego was called the "tightest and most competitive race of the Saratoga meeting," by Steven Crist in The New York Times, but it was Quick Call on the losing end of the photo, and neither an inquiry or claim of foul was enough to give him a third straight win in the race. Appropriately, Quick Call is retired to his favorite area, upstate New York, as a resident of the Thoroughbred Retirement Foundation's Wallkill Correctional Facility herd.

There is perhaps nothing rarer in racing than a champion who retires undefeated. Colin did it in 1908. It took 80 years for the next to come along. Like Colin, Personal Ensign's path to glory took her right through Saratoga Springs. On a sloppy August day, she became just the sixth filly to take the historic Whitney. She trailed a pair of millionaires early on a speed-favoring track before bounding past them. Her tenth victory in a row was a popular one. Steven Crist wrote for The New York Times that it, "brought the fans to their feet and left them cheering her in the winner's circle." While she would go on to win her final three starts, the Whitney may be viewed as a tipping point in her legacy. As Crist wrote in the days after the win, "in victory, Personal Ensign crossed the line from being a nice filly to being a great one." In retirement, her influence continued to be felt at the Spa. Both her first and last foals broke their maidens at Saratoga, with Miner's Mark also collecting a win in the Jim Dandy. Her legacy was never more secure than on August 27, 2004, the day her granddaughter, Storm Flag Flying, won the Grade 1 race named in her honor.

Theoretically, Go for Wand's Saratoga debut was meant as a prep race. She had been off from the races for seven weeks and had the Alabama on the horizon. Someone forgot to tell her and she flew to a stakes-record tying Test victory in 1:21.09. Nine days later it was more of the same. Her seven length victory in the Alabama, three furlongs longer than the Test, set a stakes record of 2:00.84 that has yet to be threatened. Trainer Billy Badgett couldn't describe the win, saying "'I'm at a loss for words. She still just amazes me." Rider Randy Romero went with "unbelievable," while Craig Perret, who rode the very good Charon in second, labeled her a "super horse." Superlatives often fly in the moment that don't linger, but with the benefit of perspective in a meet wrap-up piece for The New York Times, Steven Crist had this to say, "Go for Wand proved herself Hall of Fame material with a sizzling victory going seven furlongs in the Test on Aug. 2 and then stretching out for a brilliant display of stamina in the Alabama nine days later."

Nineteen days before two-year-old Irish Linnet broke her maiden at Saratoga Fourstardave had won the Daryl's Joy. It was the fourth straight year he had won at the Spa. Perhaps he gave his stablemate some advice on how to succeed here. Irish Linnet came back the next five years and won the Yaddo each time. The streak began by defeating her elders as a three-year-old. At four she set a stakes record. At five she tied it. At six she lowered it. In her final appearance in the Yaddo, at the age of seven, she gave 11-17 pounds to the field and won by eight. Bill Finley, writing for the New York Daily News, with a nod to her more famous stablemate called her the "Sultana of Saratoga." Leo O'Brien credited the mare, saying, "I'm proud of her because she started this when she was a 3-year-old, and that's not an easy thing to do."

In his Saratoga debut, Thunder Rumble equaled a stakes record. In the Jim Dandy. At 24-1. As Joseph Durso put it in the New York Times, "in racing's celebrated house of upsets, chalk up one of the biggest." Trainer Richie O'Connell was understandably enthused, saying "I can taste the $1 million," referring to the upcoming Travers. He was dismissed as the fifth choice in the wagering that day, but someone forgot to tell him. Thunder Rumble was the first New York-bred in over a century to take the historic Mid-Summer Derby. The hero of Saratoga didn't make it back to the Spa for two years. He had ankle surgery at the end of his three-year-old campaign, thus missing his entire four-year-old year. In a remarkable comeback, having won just once, late in that year's Belmont meet since the Travers, Thunder Rumble scored in the 77th Saratoga Cup. Richard Migliore was effusive in his praise, saying, "I always read the Black Stallion books when I was little, and Thunder Rumble is Black Stallion to me. He acts like him, and even looks like him." Thunder Rumble is retired not far from his favorite track at Old Friends at Cabin Creek.

When you spend $4,000 on a yearling steeplechase prospect, ending up in the Saratoga winners' circle doesn't sound far-fetched. After all, the annual tradition of steeplechase racing at the Spa is renowned. Ending up there following one of the meet's premiere flat races, however? That's a little more out there. Well into "old age" for a flat horse, John's Call became Saratoga's oldest G1 winner when he won the Sword Dancer at nine. The chestnut gelding, who had three Saratoga wins to his credit already in lesser company, drew off to score by better than nine lengths. "Some horses do well here, and some horses don't," said rider Jean-Luc Samyn, adding, "It's got to be something about the climate and the water. John's Call showed he definitely loves it here." The feeling was mutual. Each year the John's Call Stakes is run in his honor. In retirement, he even led the post parade for it during his summers as a pony for trainer Tom Voss.

The success of Jonathan Sheppard, particularly at Saratoga, is remarkable. It's a wonder it took him until 2000 to get his first Grade 1 winner on the flat, but it did. The horse that finally delivered the big one for him was the popular, appropriately named With Anticipation. The six-year-old led nearly every step of the way to take the Sword Dancer over a tough field that included defending champion John's Call. He came back the following year, this time making a late move to just get there in time. Of course, he had the right rider when impeccable timing is needed. Patient Pat Day, who guided the near-white horse to both Spa wins, had done that before. A lot. In fact, the victory in the race made him racing's all-time money earner.

On the Whitney undercard in 2000, a dark gray two-year-old hit the gate, was bumped shortly after the break, and was forced five wide turning for home. He won anyway. In a career that lasted until he was ten, Evening Attire would go on to become one of the most popular local runners in recent years. The gelding picked up his first Saratoga stakes win as a four-year-old in a quirky edition of the historic Saratoga Cup. Fellow popular gray Gander stumbled at the start, leaving rider Mike Smith behind. He bounded under the wire ahead of the field, but it was Evening Attire who collected the trophy. Despite lacking a stakes win here at five, Evening Attire had another terrific summer, winning twice and running third in a tough rendition of the Whitney. 2004 saw what would turn out to be the penultimate edition of the Saratoga Cup, a race which originated in 1865. The headliner was Funny Cide, making his local debut, but at the end it was all Evening Attire who rolled home by five. "He was one of a kind," Tommy Kelly said when the gelding retired in the fall of 2008, adding, "he always put in his run. I've never seen him back once. He might have finished second, third, fourth, or fifth, but he was always running at the end." Evening Attire now lives at Akindale Thoroughbred Rescue in Pawling, NY.

I want to calculate 2n-1 for a 64bit integer value. What I currently do is this
for(i=0; i<n; i++) r|=1<<i;
and I wonder if there is more elegant way to do it. The line is in an inner loop, so I need it to be fast.
I thought of
but it doesn't work for
n=64, because
<< is only defined
for values of
n up to 63.
EDIT: Thanks for all your answers and comments. Here is a little table with the solutions that I tried and liked best. Second column is time in seconds of my (completely unscientific) benchmark.
r=N2MINUSONE_LUT[n]; 3.9 lookup table = fastest, answer by aviraldg r =n?~0ull>>(64 - n):0ull; 5.9 fastest without LUT, comment by Christoph r=(1ULL<<n)-1; 5.9 Obvious but WRONG! r =(n==64)?-1:(1ULL<<n)-1; 7.0 Short, clear and quite fast, answer by Gabe r=((1ULL<<(n/2))<<((n+1)/2))-1; 8.2 Nice, w/o spec. case, answer by drawnonward r=(1ULL<<n-1)+((1ULL<<n-1)-1); 9.2 Nice, w/o spec. case, answer by David Lively r=pow(2, n)-1; 99.0 Just for comparison for(i=0; i<n; i++) r|=1<<i; 123.7 My original solution = lame
I accepted
r =n?~0ull>>(64 - n):0ull;
as answer because it's in my opinion the most elegant solution. It was Christoph who came up with it at first, but unfortunately he only posted it in a comment. Jens Gustedt added a really nice rationale, so I accept his answer instead. Because I liked Aviral Dasgupta's lookup table solution it got 50 reputation points via a bounty.

Intake Manifold removal
Im trying to disconnect the fuel lines from the manifold. The metal tool i purchased did not close fully around the line, and the plastic piece goes all the way around the line and all the way in the fitting, but no matter how hard I tap on it, or how hard i pull the line, it just wont come off.
What am i doing wrong
Re: Intake Manifold removal
I've had the same problem everytime I disconnect mine. I purchased the metal tool and it doesn't fit well at all but the plastic ones will at least get it apart.
The only trick I can tell you is that you have to make sure that the tool is engaging all 4 tangs on the female side of the connector. Also, when your pressing down on the tool, try sqeezing the connector together...this will take some of the pressure off of the tangs.

Any way we can get clarification on "ship builders will not only have a much easier time finding the resources needed to build ships, they will also notice that their banks will be substantially less drained when it comes to overall building costs." ?
Is the module cost being reduced? or the amount of modules needed per ship being reduced? I'd rather not throw mats away on shipcrafting now if the module cost is being reduced come expansion.
Another great lie?
An aspect of Ships and also Warhulks which me really interests why AV didn't changed the requirements to building them. And not only this have heard that Astrolabes and Orbs are as rarely than before. Without these changes which was announced, Naval Combat is only possible at the Sea Towers, all other targets arent really worth to waste a ship.
We know that we have to use cannons, warhulks or battlespikes to destroy city walls, its a joke if they really think that this will increase the use of Warhulks. The prices of them doesn't justify their utilize so the only thing we will see is that there are lesser Sieges. And the ones we will see are without such impressive siegeeuquip like Warhulks and cannons, expect of Battlespikes because they are the only equip which went cheaper with the patch.
No one can "Conquer the Seas" if they are afraid to risk some thing that takes a month to gather for and build.
AV we need some clear word on when and if this is working as intended.
