TULSA, Oklahoma, December 15. TCU and Missouri State practiced together under the guidance of both school's coaching staff, competed in part one of a two-day dual meet, then held a free stroke clinic yesterday in Tulsa. The second half of the dual meet concludes this afternoon.
TCU Press Release
The TCU swimming and diving team had a strong showing in day one of its two-day dual with Missouri State in Tulsa, Okla. The unique meet situation included a combined training session followed by a free swimming clinic hosted by both teams.
In a unique meet situation, the Horned Frogs began the day with a combined training session at the Jenks Trojan Aquatic Center. During training, both the men's and women's teams had the opportunity to break down into stroke groups and complete practices led by the coaching staffs from both universities. Despite difficult practices, both teams rallied together and cheered each other on.
Once meet competition began, the TCU women came out strong out of the gate with the relay team of Julia Grace Sanders, Ali Bleasdell, Mackenzie Schuler and Hannah Briant posting a first-place finish with a 1:36.21. First place finishes were also posted by Bleasdell (50 butterfly and 200 IM), Mikayla Winkler (200 freestyle) and Ashley Alspaugh (100 backstroke).
Sophomore transfer Lyndsie Gibson led the Horned Frogs in a 1-2-3 sweep of the 1000 freestyle. Gibson finished first with a 10:20.53, Sara Brzozowski took second with a 10:24.88 and Carley Stevens finished third with a 10:28.77. The relay team of Gibson, Gabi Korac, Bleasdell and Sanders capped off the first session with a win (3:54.51).
On the men's side, Cooper Robinson, Ford Story, Adam Szilagyi and Josh Mangus posted a second-place finish in the 400 relay (3:24.26) while Corey Nix, Ryan Wilcox, Szilagyi and Mangus posted a silver-medal finish in the 200 free relay (1:23.51).
Following the session, the teams combined to host a free swimming clinic for 125 local age group swimmers. Each participant had the opportunity to work with groups of student-athletes from both teams. The hour-long clinic included six stations working on various aspects of the sport including starts, turns, breakouts and relay starts. Following the clinic, participants had the opportunity to interact and get autographs from the student-athletes.
The dual continues tomorrow, Sunday, Dec. 15 at 4 p.m. at the Jenks Trojan Aquatic Center.
Missouri State Press Release
The Missouri State swimming team opened the 2013 Oklahoma Splash Bash at the Trojan Aquatic Center Saturday with several solid swims as the men won all 20 events contested and the women received victories from sophomore Dora Kiss and seniors Anna Ahlin and Renata Sander.
Through the first day of the meet, the MSU men lead TCU 133-53, while the women trail, 131-55.
Kiss claimed the 200-yard butterfly in a career-best and pool-record 1:51.31. Ahlin and Sander took the 100 backstroke in 57.47 and Sander the 100 breaststroke in 1:04.61 to lead the MSU women. Junior Roni Balzam was third in the 200 fly and also achieved a career-best 1:53.61.
Junior Paul Le paced the men, winning the 100 back in a pool-record and NCAA-`B'- time of 47.91, exciting a large crowd seeing the Moore, Okla., native compete collegiately in his home state for the first time.
In all, the Bears set pool three pool records in individual events on the day, which stated with a combined practice session with the student-athletes and coaching staffs of both schools, and ended with a free swim clinic that drew 125 area children from third to eighth grades.
"Today was a special day for our program," said head coach Dave Collins. "To have the opportunity to train in a combined setting with TCU created a very unique and beneficial experience. Then, to watch both teams compete in many close races, helps our season development.
"Finally, having the chance to provide a great free swim clinic for 125 young area swimmers, was just awesome," Collins said. "To see the smiles on their faces as they received advice from our athletes was very neat to see."
Le also set the pool record in the 50 freestyle in 20.33, led the 200 free relay and 400 medley relay squads to victory in pool-record times of 1:22.57 and 3:19.36, respectively.
Sophomore Uvis Kalnins was the only other Missouri State swimmer to win multiple events as he took the 200 free (1:40.64) and 200 IM (1:50.72).
Other event victories came from Isaac Springer in the 100 breast (56.32), Vitalli Baryshok in the 50 fly (22.72), Matthew Wilson in the 200 fly (1:51.31) and Miguel Davila in the 1,000 free (9:27.01).
The Bears benefitted from the unique chance to train with TCU prior to the meet.
"I felt the training set went great," said senior Jared Roberts. "It was completely different than anything we had done before. Since we intermixed the teams, it took the normal practice aspect out of the set and made it a two-hour, non-stop race."
Sophomore Kate Gately agreed. "I thought we got a lot out of the set and training with a good team like TCU this morning. Even though the main set was tough, we all pushed each other and everyone was going really fast. It was cool mixing up the lanes and getting the chance to get to know some of the TCU swimmers."
The schools will conclude the meet Sunday beginning at 4 p.m.

It's a little hard not to be wary of a Carrie remake. The iconic 1976 film starring Sissy Spacek and a terrifying Piper Laurie is one of my favorite horror movies. But bring in acclaimed director Kimberly Peirce, one of my all-time favorite actresses Julianne Moore and arguably one of the best young actresses working right now, Chloe Grace Moretz as Carrie--it's hard not to be sold. The teaser trailer cements that this will be a movie to see when it hits theaters in the spring.

I'm writing a JavaScript template parser, and I'm close to the final solution, however I want to allow whitespace in my template's binding blocks (which I'm matching with regular expressions).
Right now I have the following:
var codeblock = new RegExp("%\{[\S)]+\}%", 'g');
And given a template line that looks like:
%{toFixedEx(#{extendedPrice()}#,2,2)}%
Will match:
However I want to allow whitespace and line breaks between the
%{ and
}%, so I tried the following regexp:
var codeblock = new RegExp("%\{[\S\s)]+\}%", 'g');
Which ends up matching:
%{toFixedEx(#{surcharge()}#,2 ,4)}%
%{toFixedEx( #{extendedPrice()}#,2,2)}%
What I want to be able to do is match something like:
if (condition) {
toFixedEx(#{surcharge()}#,2 ,4)
else {
Where the match ends at
}% instead of continuing on to the last closing brace in the template. I tried subtraced character classes, however it does not look like they work in JavaScript.

Modern Spain represents the culmination of centuries of crossbreeding, political union, exclusion and division. The country's history is a complex one, enlivened by myths and legends, and punctuated by significant historical and cultural landmarks. A heady mix of Carthiginian, Roman, Visigothic, Moorish and Christian imprints have blended to form a culture that has made a profound impact on world history. From the flourishing of arts and literature in the Spanish Golden Age; the colonization and identity of much of Latin America; to the establishment of a democratic and constitutional monarchy, Spanish culture and influence have combined to create a unique and proud people.
Time Line
From Antiquity to the Visigothic Kingdom
11C–5C – Phoenician and Greek trading posts founded on the eastern and southern coasts of Spain, inhabited by Iberians and Tartessians respectively. In the 9C BC, the central-European Celts settle in west Spain and on the Meseta, intermingling with the Iberians (forming Celtiberians ).
3C–2C – The Carthaginians take over the southeast after conquering the Greeks and Tartessians. The capture of Sagunto by Hannibal leads to the Second Punic War (218–201 BC). Rome expels the Carthaginians and begins the conquest of peninsular Spain (with resistance at Numancia ).
1C BC–1C AD – Cantabria and Asturias are finally pacified in AD 19. Spain is now known as Iberia or Hispania.
1C – Christianity reaches the Iberian Peninsula and begins to spread.
5C–6C – Early Suevi (Swabian) and Vandal invasions are followed by those of the Visigoths (415), who establish a powerful monarchy with Toledo as capital. The peninsula unites under King Leovigild (584–85).
Muslim Spain and the Reconquest
8C – Moors invade and annihilate the Visigothic Kingdom after the Battle of Guadalete in c 711. Pelayo's victory at Covadonga in 722 heralds an 800-year-long Christian War of Reconquest. The first Muslim invaders are subjects of the Umayyad Caliphate in Damascus. Abd ar-Rahman I breaks with Damascus by founding an independent emirate at Córdoba in 756.
9C – Settlement of uninhabited land by Christians.
10C – Golden age of the emirate of Córdoba, which is raised to the status of a caliphate (929–1021) by Abd ar-Rahman III . A period of great prosperity ensues during which the expansion of Christian kingdoms is checked. Fortresses are built in the north along the Duero river.
11C – Christian Spain now includes the Kingdoms of León, Castilla, Navarra and Aragón, and the County of Barcelona. On the death of Al-Mansur in 1002, the Caliphate of Córdoba disintegrates into about 20 taifa (faction) kingdoms (1031). Alfonso VI of Castilla conquers Toledo (1085), and the area around the Tajo river is resettled by Christians. The taifa kings call upon the Almoravids (Saharan Muslims) for assistance and in a short time the tribe overruns a large part of Spain. Pilgrims begin to tread the Way of St James of Compostela. El Cid conquers Valencia (1094).
12C – Dissension stemming from a second age of taifa kingdoms assists the Reconquest, especially in the Ebro Valley (Zaragoza is taken in 1118, Tortosa in 1148 and Lleida in 1149), but after Yakub al-Mansur's victory in Alarcos (1195), the Almohads (who routed the Almoravids) recover Extremadura and check Christian expansion towards the Guadiana and Guadalquivir rivers. Sevilla, with Córdoba under its control, enjoys great prosperity.
Great military orders are founded (Calatrava, Alcántara and Santiago).
Unification of the kingdoms of Aragón and Catalunya (1150).
13C – The taifa kingdoms enter their third age. The decline of the Muslims begins with the Battle of Las Navas de Tolosa (1212). Muslim influence is reduced to the Nasrid Kingdom of Granada (modern provinces of Málaga, Granada and Almería), which holds out until its capture in 1492. Unification of Castilla and León under St Ferdinand III (1230).
The crown of Aragón under James I the Conqueror (1213–76) gains control over considerable territory in the Mediterranean.
The Catholic Monarchs (1474–1516) and the unification of Spain
1474 – Isabella, wife of Ferdinand, succeeds her brother Henry IV to the throne of Castilla. She has to contend with opposition from the supporters of her niece Juana la Beltraneja until 1479.
1478–79 – The court of the Inquisition is instituted by a special Papal Bull and Tómas de Torquemada is later appointed Inquisitor-General.
The court, a political and religious institution directed against Jews, Moors and later Protestants, survives until the 19C.
Ferdinand becomes King of Aragón in 1479 and Christian Spain is united under one crown.
1492 – Fall of Granada marks the end of the Reconquest. Expulsion of Jews.
12 Oct 1492 – Christopher Columbus lands in the Americas.
1494 – The Treaty of Tordesillas divides the New World between Spain and Portugal.
1496 – Joanna, daughter of the Catholic Monarchs, marries Philip the Handsome (Felipe el Hermoso), son of Holy Roman Emperor Maximilian I of the Habsburgs.
1504 – Death of Isabel. The kingdom is inherited by her daughter, Joanna the Mad (Juana la Loca) but Ferdinand governs as regent until Joanna's son Charles (1500–1558), future Emperor Charles V, comes of age.
1512 – The Duke of Alba conquers Navarra, thus bringing political unity to Spain.
The Habsburgs (1516–1700) and the Conquest of America
1516 – The apogee: Charles I (1516–56) and Philip II (1556–98).
On the death of Ferdinand, his grandson becomes Charles I (Carlos I) of Spain. Through his mother, Charles inherits Spain, as well as Naples, Sicily, Sardinia and American territories. Cardinal Cisneros governs until the new king arrives for the first time in Spain in 1517.
1519 – On the death of Maximilian of Austria, Charles I is elected Holy Roman Emperor under the name of Charles V (Carlos V). He inherits Germany, Austria, the Franche-Comté and the Low Countries.
1520–22 – The Spanish, incensed by Charles V's largely Flemish court advisers and the increasing number of taxes, rise up in arms. The emperor quells Comuneros and Germanías revolts.
1521–56 – Charles V wages five wars against France in order to secure complete control of Europe. In the first four he conquers Francis I (imprisoned at Pavia in 1525) and in the fifth he routs the new French king, Henri II, and captures Milan.
The Conquistadores move across America. Vasco Núñez de Balboa discovers the Pacific; Hernan Cortés seizes Mexico in 1521; Francisco Pizarro and Diego de Almagro subdue Peru in 1533; Francisco Coronado explores the Colorado river in 1535; Hernando de Soto takes possession of Florida in 1539; and Pedro de Valdivia founds Santiago de Chile in 1541.
1555 – Charles V signs the Peace of Augsburg with the Protestants in Germany after failing to suppress the Reformation.
1556 – Charles V abdicates in favour of his son and retires to a monastery in Yuste. Philip II becomes king, inheriting Spain and its colonies, the kingdom of Naples, Milan, the Low Countries and the Franche-Comté, but not Germany and Austria which are left by Charles to his brother Ferdinand I of Austria. Philip II turns his attention to Spain and the defence of Catholicism. He chooses Madrid as his de facto capital in 1561. Spain goes through a serious economic crisis.
1568–70 – Revolt of the Moriscos (Muslims who converted to Christianity) in Granada.
1571 – The Turks are defeated in the Battle of Lepanto by a fleet of ships sent by the Pope, the Venetians and the Spanish, under the command of Don John of Austria , the king's natural brother. The victory seals Spain's mastery of the Mediterranean.
1580 – The King of Portugal dies without an heir. Philip II asserts his rights, invades Portugal and is proclaimed king in 1581.
1588 – Philip II sends the Invincible Armada against Protestant England, which supports the Low Countries. The destruction of the fleet marks the end of Spain as a sea power.
1598 – Philip II dies, leaving a vast kingdom which, in spite of huge wealth from the Americas, is crippled by debt after 70 years of almost incessant war and monumental building projects like El Escorial.
1598–1621 – The decline – The last Habsburgs, Philip III (Felipe III, 1598–1621), Philip IV (Felipe IV, 1621–65) and Charles II (Carlos II, 1665–1700), lack the mettle of their forebears. Paradoxically, Spain enjoys a golden age of art and culture.
Philip III entrusts the affairs of state to the Duke of Lerma, who advises him to expel the Moriscos in 1609. 275 000 Moors leave Spain with disastrous consequences for agriculture.
1640 – Under Philip IV (Felipe IV), the Count-Duke of Olivares adopts a policy of decentralisation which spurs Catalunya and Portugal to rebellion. The Portuguese proclaim the Duke of Braganza King John IV, but their independence is not recognised until 1668.
1618–48 – Spain wastes her strength in the Thirty Years' War . In spite of victories like that of Breda (1624), the defeat in the Netherlands at Rocroi (1643) signals the end of Spain as a European power.
The Treaty of Westphalia gives the Netherlands independence.
1659 – The Treaty of the Pyrenees ends war with France. Philip IV arranges the marriage of his daughter María Teresa to Louis XIV of France.
1667-97 – Spain loses strongholds in Flanders to France during the War of Devolution (1667–68). The Dutch Wars (1672–78) end with the Treaty of Nijmegen . The Treaty of Ryswick (1697) concludes the war waged by the Confederation of Augsburg (Spain is a member) against France (1688–97).
The Bourbons, Napoleon and the War of Independence (1808–14)
1700 – Charles II dies without issue. He wills the crown to Philip, Duke of Anjou, grandson of his sister María Teresa and Louis XIV. Emperor Leopold, who had renounced his rights to the Spanish throne in favour of his son, the Archduke Charles, is displeased, but the appointment of the Bourbons to the Spanish throne stabilises the balance of power in Europe.
1702–14 – War of the Spanish Succession – England, the Netherlands, Denmark and Germany support the Archduke of Austria against France and Philip of Anjou. Catalunya, Valencia and Aragón also side with the Archduke and war spreads throughout Spain (1705). By the Treaty of Utrecht , Spain forfeits Gibraltar and Menorca (taken by the English) and many of her Italian possessions. Philip V (Felipe V) is proclaimed King of Spain (1683–1746).
1759–88 – The reign of Charles III (Carlos III), an enlightened despot, is the most brilliant of those of the Bourbons. He is assisted by competent ministers (Floridablanca and Aranda) who draw up important economic reforms. Expulsion of the Jesuits in 1767.
1788 – Charles IV (Carlos IV) succeeds to the throne. A weak-willed king, he allows the country to be governed by his wife María Luisa and her favourite, Manuel de Godoy.
1793 – On the death of Louis XVI, Spain declares war on France (then in the throes of the Revolution).
1796–1805 – Spain signs an alliance with the French Directorate against England (Second Treaty of San Ildefonso, 1796).
Napoleon enters Spain with his troops on the pretext that he is going to attack Portugal. The renewed offensive against England in 1804 ends disastrously with the Battle of Trafalgar the following year.
1805–08 – Napoleon takes advantage of the disagreement between Charles IV and his son Ferdinand to engineer Charles IV's abdication and appoint his own brother, Joseph, King of Spain. The Aranjuez Revolt takes place in March 1808.
2 May 1808 – The Madrid uprising against French troops marks the beginning of the War of Independence (The Peninsular War), which lasts until Napoleon is exiled by Wellington in 1814. During the war there are battles at Bailén (1808), Madrid, Zaragoza and Girona.
1812 – The French are routed by Wellington in the Arapiles Valley; King Joseph flees from Madrid. Valencia is taken by the French General Suchet.
Spanish patriots convene the Cortes (parliament) and draw up the liberal Constitution of Cádiz.
1813–14 – Anglo-Spanish forces expel Napoleon after successive victories.
Ferdinand VII (Fernando VII) returns to Spain, repeals the Constitution of Cádiz and so reigns as an absolute monarch until 1820. Meanwhile, the Latin American colonies struggle for independence.
The Disturbances of the 19C
1820–23 – The liberals oppose the king's absolute rule but their uprisings are all severely quelled. The 1812 constitution is reinstated after a liberal revolt led by General Riego in Cádiz in 1820, but only for three years.
In 1823 Ferdinand VII appeals to Europe for assistance and 100 000 Frenchmen are sent in the name of St Louis to
re-establish absolute rule (which lasts until 1833).
1833–39 – On the death of Ferdinand VII, his brother Don Carlos disputes the right to the throne of his niece Isabel II, daughter of the late king and Queen María Cristina. The traditionalist Carlists fight Isabel's liberal supporters, who, after six years, win the First Carlist War (Convention of Vergara). In 1835, the government minister Mendizábal has a series of decrees passed which do away with religious orders and confiscate their property (desamortización) .
1840 – A revolutionary junta forces the regent María Cristina into exile. She is replaced by General Espartero.
1843–68 – Queen Isabel II comes of age. The Narváez uprising forces Espartero to flee. A new constitution is drawn up in 1845. The Second Carlist War (1847–49) ends in victory for Isabel II but her reign is troubled by a succession of uprisings on behalf of progressives and moderates.
The 1868 revolt led by General Prim puts an end to her reign. Isabel leaves for France and General Serrano is appointed leader of the provisional government.
1869 – The Cortes passes a progressive constitution which, however, envisages the establishment of a monarchy. Amadeo of Savoy is elected king.
1873 – The Third Carlist War (1872–76). The king abdicates on finding himself unable to keep the peace. The National Assembly proclaims the First Spanish Republic .
1874 – General Martínez Campos leads a revolt. The head of the government, Cánovas de Castillo, proclaims Isabel's son Alfonso XII King of Spain. The Bourbon Restoration opens a long period of peace.

The fall of the Monarchy and the Second Republic (1931–36)
1914–18 – Spain remains neutral throughout the First World War. A general strike in 1919 is severely put down.
1921 – Insurrection in Morocco; General Sanjurjo occupies the north (1927).
1923 – General Miguel Primo de Rivera establishes a dictatorship with the king's approval. Order is restored, the country grows wealthier but opposition increases among the working classes.
1930 – In the face of hostility from the masses, Primo de Rivera is forced into exile and General Berenguer is appointed dictator.
1931 – April elections bring victory to the Republicans in Catalunya, the País Vasco, La Rioja and the Aragonese province of Huesca. The king leaves Spain and the Second Republic is proclaimed.
Jun 1931 – A constituent Cortes is elected with a socialist Republican majority; a Constitution is promulgated in December. Don Niceto Alcalá Zamora is elected President of the Republic. Agrarian reforms, such as compulsory purchase of large properties, meet strong right-wing opposition.
1933 – The Falange Party , which opposes regional separation, is founded by José Antonio Primo de Rivera , son of the dictator. The army plots against the régime.
Oct 1934 – Catalunya proclaims its autonomy. Miners in Asturias spark off a revolt against the right-wing government and are brutally repressed.
Feb 1936 – The Popular Front wins the elections, precipitating a revolutionary situation. Radicals hit the streets and the right promptly retaliates.
The Civil War (1936–39)
17 Jul 1936 – The Melilla uprising triggers the Civil War. The army takes control and puts an end to the Second Republic.
Nationalist troops based in Morocco and led by General Franco cross the Straits of Gibraltar and make their way to Toledo, which is taken at the end of September. Franco is proclaimed Generalísimo of the armed forces and Head of State in Burgos. Nationalists lead an unsuccessful attack against Madrid.
While Madrid, Catalunya and Valencia remain faithful to the Republicans, the Conservative agricultural regions – Andalucía, Castilla and Galicia – are rapidly controlled by the Nationalists. These regions out-supply the Republicans and the Republicans themselves are torn by dissension between the Anarchist CNT party, the Communist PCE and the Marxist POUM. They do, however, receive assistance from International Brigades.
1937 – Industrial towns in the north are taken by Nationalist supporters in the summer (on 26 April, Gernika is bombed by German planes). The Republican Government is moved to Barcelona in November. In the battle of Teruel in December, the Republicans try to breach the Nationalist front in Aragón and thereby relieve surrounded Catalunya. Teruel is taken by the Republicans and recaptured by the Nationalists soon after.
1938 – The Nationalist army reaches the Mediterranean, dividing Republican territory into two parts. The Battle of the Ebro lasts from July to November: Franco launches an offensive against Catalunya, which is occupied by the Nationalists in February 1939.
1 Apr 1939 – The war ends with the capture of Madrid.
The Franco Era
1939–49 – Spain is declared a monarchy with Franco as regent and Head of State and remains neutral in the Second World War. Period of diplomatic isolation.
1952 – Spain joins UNESCO.
1955 – Spain becomes a member of the United Nations.
1969 – Prince Juan Carlos is named as Franco's successor.
20 Dec 1973 – Prime Minister Carrero Blanco is assassinated.
20 Nov 1975 – Death of Franco. Juan Carlos I becomes King of Spain.

Race Face Turbine
8 / 10
Yes, we know, Race Face has closed its doors. But until a few weeks ago, it was gaining momentum, so you can bet there are plenty of products still available. Is the warranty any good? Not likely. But closeout prices? You betcha. Before the company bit the dust, this CNC'd all-mountain stem was shaping up to be one of its most promising new products. Milled from 7075 alloy the $100 Turbine weights just 135 grams in the 90mm size. It's also available (while supplies last!) in 60, 70, 100 and 110mm lengths—each with a 6-degree rise. Act fast to get a piece of mountain bike history.

Rayman Origins Leaps Onto Mac This Week
By Ryan Winslett 2 years ago comments
Not every hero needs a spandex suit or a cape. Heck, some heroes dont even have arms or legs. And thats exactly the case when it comes to the mighty Rayman, whose finally making his way to Mac with the launch of Rayman Origins on Dec. 12.
Easily one of the best games of 2011 and one of my favorite platformers of all time, Rayman Legends gave new life to a classic platforming series that, until just a couple of years ago, had been completely taken over by Rabbids and silly mini-games. Those mini-games were usually pretty awesome, sure, and the Rabbids have their lovable moments, but what gamers really desired was a limbless wonder who could once again remind folks what fast-pace platforming was all about.
Enter Rayman Origins, a beautifully rebooted entry in the series from original creator Michel Ancel and lovingly pieced together for its new platform by Feral Interactive. Origins returned to the genres 2D roots and featured an amazing soundtrack and even more amazing visuals, perfectly complementing tight controls, crazy creatures and enough platforming goodness to give your thumbs permanent callouses.
When a marauding army of the Livid Dead threatens his magical homeland, its up to Rayman to leap into action and save the day, reads a statement from Feral. With a riotous mixture of unique moves, outrageous enemies and boldly psychedelic environments, this is Rayman at his hilarious and heroic best.
While folks got to enjoy this colorful romp on consoles a couple of years ago and subsequently on PC, its taken a bit of extra time to bring Origins to Mac. That time has finally come, however, as it launches Dec. 12 for just $19.99. Offering up dozens of levels, multiple playable characters, co-op craziness and a handful of diabolical speedrunning levels, that makes Origins an absolute steal. Players will jump, swim, sprint and hover thorugh over 60 fantastical levels, from a desert of immense digeridoo formations and bouncy bongo drums to the fiery stomach of a dragon chef, reads the official Mac launch announcement. Theyll punch out enemies with Raymans telescopic fists, confound bosses with gravity-defying wall-running and soar through perilous platforming challenges with Hairlycopter-powered gliding.
According to Feral Interactive Managing Director David Stephen, everything fans loved about Rayman Origins on consoles has made the transition to Mac.
Rayman Origins is a beautifully balanced game, both welcoming and challenging, Stephen said. Players will need to explore every inch of the world and push their platforming skills to the limit to uncover the games biggest secrets.
And Mac users can start doing exactly that in just a few days. Look for Rayman Origins on Mac this Thursday, Dec. 12, pretty much anywhere digital video games are sold.

Lindsey Buckingham talks solo work, Fleetwood Mac
LOS ANGELES Though Fleetwood Mac rose to fame in the swinging 1970s, guitarist-singer Lindsey Buckingham says he's having the time of his life right now.
The 61-year-old musician is at a creative and personal peak, and one supports the other. He thanks his happy home life with wife Kristen and their three young children for enabling him to enjoy the recent reunion tour with Fleetwood Mac and to create some of his best work yet, which he released this week as his sixth solo album, "Seeds We Sow."
He took time out of his preparations for his upcoming national solo tour to talk about the new album, Fleetwood Mac and what the future might hold.
AP: What inspired this album?
Buckingham: It wasn't any one thing that inspired it. Normally there's kind of a calling. ... In the case of this one, Fleetwood Mac had just come off the road and I thought we'd do some more dates. There was no agenda to make an album, no agenda to express anything in particular, but the time opened up as a surprise, and I thought I guess I better fill it.
AP: Why do you say this may be some of your best musical work?
Buckingham: When I'm working with Fleetwood Mac, it's more like moviemaking. It's collaborative, and you have to bring in something like a full-on song, which would be like the analogy of the script. It's a more political process. When you work alone, it's more like painting. You go down to the studio and you've got this sort of one-on-one with the canvas. You've got the freedom of not necessarily having a full-on song. You can have a rough idea and you make a start. It's like a painter throwing colors on the canvas - at some point, they'll paint over some part but the work starts to take on a life of its own and lead you in a direction you might not have expected to go. There are many more surprises that happen when I'm doing solo work.
AP: You wrote, played, mixed and engineered the entire album. What are the challenges there?
Buckingham: Basically, you kind of grow into all that. ... It's all my own sense of how to do things. It always has been - how to teach myself how to play guitar, how to teach myself to write or sing, how to teach myself to record. Because I don't really know music. I mean I do, from a certain center, but not from an academic point. I think a lot of people who get taught try to get back to the place I'm at, but I think of myself as kind of a refined primitive.
AP: What was it like touring with Fleetwood Mac again in 2009 after being apart all those years?
Buckingham: I keep feeling like the Fleetwood Mac experience ... seems like it keeps getting better for me. That's just a reflection of how things have gotten better for me personally as a solo artist and just in my personal life, and I can bring all that back and appreciate all the nuances of Fleetwood Mac and add to the mix in a very communal and supportive way.
AP: The band's biggest album, "Rumours," was partially about your breakup with Stevie Nicks. What is your relationship like now?
Buckingham: I've known (Stevie) since high school. I spent some time with her when she was finishing up her solo album and mine was already done. We worked on some stuff together and had some real quality time. And all these years later, that there's still some chapters to unfold with the two of us seems just to be the sweetest thing.

I don't think I have any idea what the definition ever was for having a pure heart.
An untainted piece of gold in the middle of the beauty that surrounds and solidifies it in its cocoon of safety. A heart where every beat is simply designed to dance with the happiness of the person it inhibits until its work is done.
Where did I miss the joy of being innocent and untouched by circumstances surrounding my inner core? Did I fail in making it affect me in the wrong ways and taking it to my core when I should have shunned the ugly? Will you ever get it back or didn't you have it to start with?
When you view my web browser history you might be shocked to what extent I have searched to find the answers I'm looking for. Search engine to search engine asking extensively to find out where all my anger and hatred originated from. When I couldn't find out where it all started I turned against myself and blamed myself for the ways the world saw me and the way I wanted them to see me. Blaming myself for my short comings and for who I was and brainwashing myself too think I could change this.

Also thanks Tim for unbanning me from when this mutha fucka banned me.
*sigh*, Bayleef, that is why he doesn't let you
1) You just called him a jackass, and did in the past
2) They are your... pity friends :lol:
3) You can't spell for shit, that is one strong focus point of RPs, GRAMMAR!
4) You just called him a motha fucka xD
5) You would lose that vote
6) Demanding?
7) 7
8) Why 11? I say have an open vote for a week (if this retarded plan goes), then see how badly you lost.
9) :lol:, you called Kakashi a nerd. He's in high school, you realize. I think it's funny you think he's 7, that would mean you have worse grammar then a 7 year old XD
10) You won't stfu, you even said that before you were going to when he first banned you, but that didn't last
11) Tim probably unbanned you to stur up this kind of shit.
EDIT. Oh yeah, kick ass response Chrizz ;)

- Heineken International buys United Breweries Ltd shares for Rs 275 crHeineken inches past Vijay Mallya to become top shareholder in United BreweriesKingfisher Airlines dues: Income-Tax Dept asserts first claim on dues recovery from Vijay Mallya's firmCourt rejects Vijay Mallya's United Breweries Ltd plea on BNP Paribas' petition
United Spirits (USL) stake sale to British liquor major Diageo suffered a setback as the Karnataka High Court on Friday annulled the sale.
A division bench of the high court set aside the order of a single judge that allowed the sale of 7 per cent shares in the Vijay Mallya-owned company in May.
The order was in response to a winding-up petition by the creditors of the holding company United Breweries (Holdings) or UBHL.
UBHL had given a corporate guarantee to the creditors of Kingfisher Airlines, which has ceased operations.
The division bench ruling has now put a question over Diageos stake purchase in USL from UBHL and the matter is now dependent on winding-up petitions filed in the court against UBHL by creditors of Kingfisher Airlines.
The development comes nearly five months after Diageo completed the transaction, acquiring a majority stake in USL.
The division bench comprising Justices N Kumar and Rathnakala stated in its order on Friday that the court which allowed the stake sale in May did not have jurisdiction to pass its order as the winding- up petitions had not been admitted at that time. The share transaction was not valid as a result, the bench ruled.
A single judge of the high court had on May 24 given UBHL permission to sell the 1.35 crore shares to Diageo on the condition that it deposit Rs 250 crore in court as a guarantee to Kingfisher Airlines creditors.
Following the court clearance, Diageo picked up a 26 per cent stake in United Spirits including a 7 per cent share held by UBHL at a total cost of Rs 5,707 crore.
The division bench also asked for Rs 379 crore to be deposited with the court as guarantee along with the Rs 250 crore already deposited.
Kingfisher Airlines creditors, who moved the appeal before the high court, included BNP Paribas, Rolls Royce and Partners Finance, RRPF Engine Leasing Ltd and IAE International Aero Engines AG.
A court had in November admitted two winding-up petitions and allowed newspaper advertisements to be published.
We will take all necessary steps to protect Diageos interests as well as our own, chairman of the UB Group Vijay Mallya said in a statement.

Though it feels like a lifetime, it's hard to believe it was only about six months ago that Quentin Tarantino's snarling slavery spaghetti western epic "Django Unchained" was riding high in theaters, and causing no small amount of chatter. While the movie earned praise from critics, and box office approval from audiences who made it the director's most successful movie to date, there were noted dissenters including Spike Lee who refused to see it and Katt Williams who threatened to punch Tarantino over the frequent use of the n-word in the movie. Those are probably two of the more extreme examples, but in general -- and as underscored by our three different reviews -- there were those who concerns were a bit more measured, and it turns out "Sin Nombre" and "Jane Eyre" director Cary Fukunaga is one of them.
Our own Jessica Kiang had a chance to chat with the filmmaker last week at the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival, and the conversation turned to "Django Unchained" after she first asked about whether Fukunaga was still working on the Civil War film, "No Blood No Guts No Glory."
"I took myself off that project, in the fall of 2011. It's funny because the project is still out there, I love the story, because I'm really obsessed with the American Civil War. I've studied it for many years and I've always wanted to do an American Civil War story," he explained. "I saw an opportunity there to tell an amazing story of The Andrews Raid and the Confederacy, but I think the producer wanted to tell a much more 'Inglourious Basterds' complete reinterpretation of history which I didn't feel comfortable with. I think the history alone was captivating, we didn't need to invent action scenes."
Naturally, Kiang had to ask what he thought of the Tarantino school of using history as a backdrop to tell elevated genre stories, and Fukunaga isn't quite sure the approach works. "I really like Quentin Tarantino, but I couldn't figure out what he's doing. I couldn't figure out if the irreverence for history, was it to be controversial and because he wants to have fun or is it just really poor research? Even from the very first title [in 'Django Unchained'] the title card says '1859, 3 years before the Civil War.' He even gets that wrong…," Fukunaga said. "[The danger is] there's a lot of people out there who don't bother to learn history, and will believe [this stuff] no matter how ridiculous it is."
"I hope that ['Django'] doesn't become 'the Civil War movie.' It's the 150th anniversary of the Civil War in America, [July 4th] was the 150th anniversary of Vicksburg which was the battle that really won the war, not Gettysburg, and no one's doing anything [movie-wise]. Maybe it's too expensive… studios won't pay for that stuff anymore. Not enough robots blowing shit up," Fukunaga lamented.
It's another intriguing viewpoint on Tarantino's film that's clearly still giving folks a lot to think about. What do you think? Does Tarantino need to stick a little closer to historical fact if he's going to play in those waters, or does he have license to bend where he needs to? Tell us below. We'll have more from our conversation with Fukunaga later this week.

He saved my life!!
Thank you God for Dr. Daniel Smith. He is a life saver.
He was awful! Don't use his services!!!
When awakened after surgery, two foreign speaking doctors were talking about residency experiences rather than giving attention to closing my abdomen. Dr. Smith took off and did not check their work! Result was a crooked very obvious half inch wide and 6 inch long scar.
Dr, Smith is the best dr. I had a hysterectomy due to uterine cancer .He made me fell so relaxed, great bedside manner. He seen me every day in the hospital. After discharge he would call in between visits to follow up . He also has a great sense of humor, totally up beat.. I have never felt better I do belive its do to Dr. Smith"s positive attitude ...Thank You Dr. Smith... forever grateful..! " I can't imagine why any one would write some thing negative ??????? DR. SMITH GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS " YOU ARE THE BEST"
I was blessed to have found such a wonderful doctor, would like to give the highest compliments.I found Dr.Smith to be very cheerful, down to earth manners.Which helped to make my surgery go all the better.I only wish him well wherever he chooses to practice.
Nice experience
Dr. Daniel Smith is the most professional,kind and caring doctor I have ever known. He saved my mother-in-laws life and is so down to earth. He always makes time to talk to you and will help you in any way he can. He is truly a gem.
I had a full hysterectomy. the Dr said he was gonna remove ovaries,tubes and cervix . finding out months later due to complications . only one ovary was removed and my cervix was left behind. also suffered with a small bowel blockage it was in the report but he never even told me. He is not thorough in letting his patients how the surgery went. He contrdicts what he says hes gonna do. I do not recomend him for any surgical procedures. Go elswhere,run.
Treated me in the most respectfull manner, did my surgery and it went great.To that patient that wrote bad about him at least 3 times... sorry but alot of people dont agree with you.
has a photographic memory and a mind like steel trap. a master surgeon and his optimism and sense of humor make every visit inspiring and healing.
Dr. Smith is very professional, he is confident and will explain everything to you. I had some other doctors give me the wrong information when I first got diagnosed with cancer. He knows what he's doing . He went above and beyoung.Where you go at the beginning of your treatment makes all the difference. Highly recommend
Well the highway billboard is no longer in effect. I wonder if Hackensack booted him out like Columbia Presb did and that's a fact. Other physicians verified he was thrown out of his long time, NY affiliation. So now he's with Holy Name/Teaneck after he's out of Hackensack. He's recertified, I've never heard of a doctor needing recertification. Maybe he did because his surgeries didn't turn out well or because of his prostatic cancer.He also treated me like garbage as his patient. I saw his residents and he barely saw me while back in the hospital for 6 weeks for complications he blamed me for??? He blamed my long time ob/gyn that took excellent care of me. Daniel Smith MD is an arrogant, cocky doctor with no bedside manner unless your family is contributing heavily to the hospital he's currently affiliated with. Those of us that have excellent health insurance but not the monies to make huge hospital donations are treated terribly. The surgery he did on me was incomplete. He left behind reproductive organs he said he took out which leads me to believe he left the OR with the residents doing my surgery. He began me on medications for menopause but I wasn't going through menopause because ovaries were left behind, so were fallopian tubes and he knew he didn't get my uterus out. So why medications for menopaause? So all the education in the world means little if the surgery was a flop and the patient almost died. Stay FAR away, he's riding on his very old reputation of 25 or more years ago. He is NOT the doctor people claim he was. The wealthy are treated nicely because he's a Scarsdale snob. If you donate, you get better treatment but the average, middle class are treated as if they don't exist. If you have a bad problem, go to Sloan Kettering or one of the NYC hospitals. Don't use Hackensack or Holy Name which is now his palace. Let's see how long that lasts. It's time for retirement for this doctor in my humble opinion.Best health wishes for all
Noticed Dr.Smith has a new billboard off of Rt.4E. That is a far cry from the Dr. which initially first treated me at Columbia. It took him 8 months to diagnose my cancer and 3 weeks to get back to me with the diagnoses. Being an Oncologist if someone which is post menopause and has a firoid is bleeding that is a RED FLAG for cancer! Getting back to someone after 3 wks with a pathology report??? When the window of curablity after surgery is 6 wks!Speaking to my family over your shoulder as you are walking away......Offensive.All I have to say is shame on you Dr. Smith. What happened to that caring Doctor? You should consider throwing in the towel instead of changing hospitals and giving them a bad name.
I was within days of doing away with myself to save my family grief. By a stroke of luck, I was referred to Dr. Smith and was able to make an appointment with him within days. Reluctantly, I kept that appointment. Within five minutes, he gave me hope to go through with surgery. Another doctor pretty much told me to forget it.I had my surgery, chemo, three more surgeries, for other reasons, and I feel great. If it were not for Dr. Smith's up-beat words, I would not be here today.When I was in the hospital he visited me each and every day, sometimes twice, like clockwork. He has given me time during every visit to ask questions, etc.I would reccomend him to anyone.In the last several years, I have heard the same thing from friends of friends, etc.
I did NOT have the experience the above patients did. The doctor had a terrible attitude & blamed ME for contracting many bacterias during a surgery he supposedly performed. I later found out from different doctors, after my surgery & rehospitalizations that went bad, this doctor was *kicked out* of (forced to leave) Columbia Presbyterian Hosp! That is why you have him at Hackensack. The big fish in a little pond. My ovaries and fallopian tubes were NOT fully removed, that was the purpose of the surgery. Why I still have a good part of both no one understands. Menses were present for 6 years post op. With ovaries removed, that does not happen. To blame the patient for a bacteria ridden surgical suite or equipment is beyond anything I've ever heard of from a *wonderful doctor* as some of you seem to think he is. I almost lost my life due to one of the bacterias and am still living on the edge due to MRSA. I highly do NOT recommend this Dr, 3 (not 4) board certifications or not. I am lucky to still be alive today but the problems I had and still have put my life on the edge daily and I am not being dramatic. Living with MRSA in your body, leaving behind diseased ovaries/fallopian tubes and not communicating or taking care of the patient is *not* done by a wonderful doctor. I was cared for strictly by residents, almost never saw this Dr. for the many weeks I spent in the hospital as his supposed patient. Please be careful, he was kicked out of Columbia, he's on his best behavior. Give him time and he will be walking in his same shoes again, the arrogant, cocky ones that don't care if his patients live or die. :*( I agree with the person that posted about how his residents do his work, they sure did with me and possibly did my entire surgery for all I know.Best of health to all,An x patients
Dr. Smith is the most amazing Dr. I have ever had the privilege of meeting. I am usually incredibly unnerved by Dr.s and he put my at ease for a very serious condition and I am now fully recovered thanks to his amazing bedside manner and technical excellence.
He is wonderful doctor I have been seeing since 1987. I followed him from Columbia Presbyterian in NY to Hackensack, even though I live in NY. He is the best.

Open secrets
Technology | Anonymous sharing apps have become the Wild West of social media
Whisper, Secret, and Yik Yak are among a new wave of social media applications for sharing comments among friends or acquaintances. In this wave, nobody knows who's doing the talking.
The apps are anonymous, allowing users to compose short messages—no names attached—others can read or reply to. You may wonder: What's the fun in posting anonymously? Some find it lots of fun, and not always the good kind.
This year the creators of Yik Yak temporarily disabled the app's use in Chicago after it inadvertently became a platform for high-school bullying. Yik Yak is intended for college students, who allegedly make up the majority of its roughly 200,000 users. But it doesn't require email or password, and has no way of checking age. After downloading the free app, a user can post anonymous thoughts—or gossip, or threats—visible to other Yik Yak users within a five-mile radius.
I downloaded Yik Yak to my iPhone to see what the fuss was about. Since there was apparently only one other user within five miles of my house in northwest Indiana, I scrolled through top posts ("yaks") in the Chicago region, several of which referenced high schools. Many yaks contained vulgarities or sexual remarks. Although Yik Yak has a "zero tolerance policy on using people's full names," some did: "[Redacted name] is pregnant." Another claimed so-and-so had an STD. Since everything is anonymous, of course, there's no way to distinguish truth from a bad joke. You can vote yaks up or down, or report them as inappropriate. (I helpfully reported several.)
"When I send in a Yik Yak I feel like I'm sending in a tip to gossip girl. Xoxo," wrote one user. "I wish we could all get along like we used to in middle school," wrote a second. A third broadcast an invitation to "smoke weed." A fourth said her (or his) school had issued an emergency mobile phone ban: "Yak started at my high school and it got really bad. … Don't tell people about this app."
Beyond Chicago, anonymous Yik Yak users this year posted false bomb threats at two high schools in California and Massachusetts, prompting a lockdown and evacuation. In March, after high schools began banning Yik Yak, the makers of the app tried to stem criticism by disabling Yik Yak service, via GPS coordinates, at most high schools and middle schools across the country.
Removing names removes accountability, which, for too many, removes respectability. You'd hope the app's target audience, college students, would behave better, but on an app page displaying "All-Time Greatest Yaks," sex, drugs, and drunkenness are recurring topics. Maybe this anonymous social networking is a flawed idea.
Ready, aim, zap
This summer the U.S. Navy will deploy a battle-ready laser weapon on a ship for the first time, a defense against guided missiles or enemy drones. The Laser Weapon System (LaWS), attached to the deck of the USS Ponce, will be able to blind imaging sensors on missiles or unmanned aerial vehicles, or heat them until they catch fire. The system, resembling a telescope, has successfully shot down several drones in tests since 2009. The Navy says it costs less than a dollar to fire. —D.J.D.
