Tony Lama was a cobbler for soldiers stationed at Fort Bliss, Texas. After his term, he moved to the nearby town of El Paso and setup his first boot shop. He produced the best fitting, most comfortable boots around. This is when Tony Lama Boots was born. in the 1930's Tony Lama began distributing boots in Western Wear stores and by 1961, Tony Lama Boots was producing over 750 boots a day. When Tony Lama passed away in 1974, his family continued the tradition of quality and handcraftsmanship, making Tony Lama Boots a true American success story. In 1990, the company became part of the Justin Boot family and the tandem has set the standard for quality and craftsmanship worldwide. If you have never tried on Tony Lama Boots, you are in for a treat. Each pair celebrates the humble and hardworking beginnings of the old west. With over 100 steps to producing every pair of boots, today's Tony Lama's incorporate the same craftsmanship combined with modern comfort and durability technologies. This construction and quality makes Tony Lama the most recognized western boots in the world. Not to mention the selection of men's boots and women's boots is outstanding. Whether it's the TLX series, their Handcrafted series or their classic Western boots, Tony Lama will not disappoint.

YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio (AP) -- A judge has sentenced a gunman to 90 years to life in prison in a fraternity house shooting that left one dead and 11 others wounded.
The judge imposed the sentence Thursday on 20-year-old Jamelle Jackson of Youngstown on his convictions for murder, felonious assault and firing a gun into a house.
Jackson's attorney says his client plans to appeal the conviction.
A co-defendant was sentenced Thursday to 10 years on involuntary manslaughter and felonious assault charges. Another co-defendant was sentenced earlier to 92 years to life in prison for murder.
The Feb. 6, 2011, shooting near Youngstown State University killed 25-year-old student Jamail Johnson. The senior was killed while trying to usher a group of partygoers away from the gunfire and out of harm's way, according to police.
According to The (Youngstown) Vindicator, the victim's mother told the judge she often wishes the ordeal was a dream.
"The reality is I will never wake up and have my son," Shirlene Hill said. "I miss his smile. He had a beautiful smile ... He was a very special rock in my life. I can no longer see his smile or see his face."
Hill said Jackson's family has comforted her and she realizes that family also is in pain.
"It hurts me so much to see two families in so much pain. We should not be here. None of us should be here today," she said. "Your senseless act has cost me many sleepless nights and gut-wrenching pain, the kind that never stops and never goes away."
Jackson's only comment before sentencing was to deny any part in the crime. "I never one time fired a gun into that house, never one time even aimed a gun at that house," he said.
Shavai Owens, who was shot in the head, said people see her now and think she has completely healed, but she said the shooting has left both physical and emotional scars.

UV 'pens' don't kill viruses, but instead render them harmless by scrambling their DNA so they can't reproduce. They're highly effective, easy to use, and don't affect the water's taste, but they do require a power source of some kind.
Chemical water purifiers come in either drops or tablet form. They're inexpensive and easy to use, but they could impart a taste to the water.
No matter how clear water may appear, there's always a chance it's contaminated with microscopic organisms like Giardia or, if you're around or downstream of human activity, viruses. Water purifiers eliminate these threats, using a chemical or UV light to kill any bacteria, protozoa, and viruses that might be lurking in the water. It's always a good idea to use a purifier on conjunction with a filter.

Space ShuttleScience brain teasers require understanding of the physical or biological world and the laws that govern it.
Why is it that a plane is allowed to take off and fly in a thunderstorm, but the space shuttle is not?
AnswerThe exhaust plume of the space shuttle effectively grounds the space shuttle for a considerable part of its initial flight. Therefore, the shuttle could be struck by lightning. A plane is not grounded, so it does not conduct lightning.

Rumor Roundup
Wednesday, January 9
The Adam LaRoche derby came to an end on Tuesday, when the first baseman chose to stay in the nation's capital on a two-year contract with a mutual option for the 2015 season. Today's Roundup is a look at the implications of the deal; Ben Lindbergh analyzed the agreement itself here.
After re-signing LaRoche, Nationals mulling options with Michael Morse
Just minutes after news of the signing broke, national baseball writers swarmed Twitter in a race to break down the Morse sweepstakes. FOX Sports' Ken Rosenthal heard from a source that five or six teams were actively speaking with Rizzo about the 30-year-old Morse, who is set to earn $7 million in 2013, the second year of a two-year, $10.5 million extension that he signed last Jan. 20 in a decision to forgo his remaining arbitration eligibility. ESPN's Jim Bowden doubled Rosenthal's total, claiming that Rizzo is actually fielding calls from 10 or 11 of his counterparts. And thus, by the mid-afternoon, our own Jason Collette quipped that armchair GMs from all 29 other teams were concocting hypothetical offers for Morse, in a frenzy trumped only by the Giancarlo Stanton madness that swarmed the Internet during the past few weeks:
The Phillies are among the teams still seeking offensive upgrades, and Morse—a (kind of) versatile right-handed hitter—would complement manager Charlie Manuel's incumbent pieces well. But Rosenthal is skeptical that Rizzo would trade Morse to a division rival, and he named the Mariners, Orioles, Rays, and Yankees as viable alternatives. CBS Sports' Jon Heyman added the Indians, Mets, and Rangers as possible fits, and it's possible that Sandy Alderson will have more luck wooing Rizzo than Ruben Amaro because the Mets are not viewed as a threat to the Nationals in 2013. Assuming that all of those teams are on Bowden's list of 10 or 11, two or three other suitors remain unidentified.
Rizzo's intentions are also somewhat muddled. He told reporters in the wake of the LaRoche agreement, "Nobody said that we have to trade Michael Morse," and added that while as many as a dozen teams have shown interest, there is no financial pressure to unload him. On the other hand, Washington Post beat writer Adam Kilgore reminded followers that manager Davey Johnson said earlier this winter that keeping both LaRoche and Morse would leave him with too many mouths to feed. If the skipper and his boss are on the same page, then Rizzo's statement on Tuesday was most likely just an attempt to improve his leverage in trade talks.
And that leverage could be critical, because Morse's preferences may serve to diminish it. Rosenthal followed up on his initial report by speaking with sources that indicated that Morse "strongly opposes being a [designated hitter]," a sentiment that, if rigid, would make him unattractive to some American League suitors. A lumbering 6-foot-5, 230 pounder, Morse is a below-average outfielder (-2.4 FRAA in 2012, -8.7 career FRAA) with poor range and a mediocre arm, and his defensive shortcomings eat significantly into his offensive contributions. If he is unwilling to help teams to hide those shortcomings, then many will be reluctant to match Rizzo's price tag.
A Nationals insider told Bowden that the asking price for Morse is a left-handed reliever and/or prospects to revive a farm system that graduated Bryce Harper last year and now lacks depth. Johnson's primary bullpen southpaws, Sean Burnett and Michael Gonzalez, departed in free agency to the Angels and Brewers, respectively, and while Rizzo retained Zach Duke and inked Bill Bray to a minor-league deal, finding a reliable complement to Tyler Clippard and Drew Storen would provide the finishing touch to a roster that is otherwise complete.
Many of the aforementioned suitors have lefties to spare. The Mariners, who shipped Morse to the Nationals for Ryan Langerhans in 2009, could try to bring him back with an offer that includes either Charlie Furbush or Lucas Luetge. Meanwhile, the Orioles might make Brian Matusz available, the Rays could dangle Jake McGee, and the Yankees—enticed by Morse's expiring contract—may put Boone Logan on the table. Then again, Rizzo told reporters, including CSN Washington beat writer Mark Zuckerman, that he is confident in his righty relievers' ability to retire opposite-handed batters, a comment that suggests that his focus is on obtaining minor-league talent.
Does the LaRoche deal affect Mike Napoli's limbo with the Red Sox?
Remember the aforementioned staring contest between LaRoche and the Nationals? The Red Sox were one of the teams that maintained their interest in LaRoche throughout the offseason, and they were keeping tabs on his status as recently as Dec. 27. The connection was a win-win: Milchin could use the Red Sox to pressure Rizzo into a three-year hitch, and the Red Sox could use LaRoche to hedge their bets on Napoli, whose three-year, $39 million contract still hangs in the balance. Now that LaRoche is gone, Cherington's has lost his primary backup plan to Napoli, and Morse represents his most credible alternative.
ESPN Boston's Gordon Edes corroborated the Morse idea, and also noted—after speaking with Napoli's agent, Brian Grieper—that there appears to be no progress on that front. Boston Globe beat writer Peter Abraham repeated what has been the Red Sox' company line since concerns arose during Napoli's physical: They remain "hopeful," but the process of amending the pact to include language that protects the team from what is "believed to be a preexisting hip injury" has moved at a glacial pace. There is no reason to believe that the sides are not negotiating in good faith, but as long as Morse remains on the trade market, the Red Sox have little motivation to cross the T's unless they have their way with the medical jargon.

It seems that LaRoche didn't hurt the Nats by waiting so long to sign. It gave the rest of the offseason clutter a chance to clear, and left Morse as the best bat left for teams that didn't get through their entire shopping list. The fact that the Yankees actually like the idea that Morse only has a one-year contract would seem to give them a leg up. Wherever he goes, though, he will go with Nats fans' best wishes, because we love the guy.

The following php code when added to the html of a post prints the folowing:
Price/per: [custom field :'item price'] €
or if the site is in greek (qtranslate):
Τιμή/τεμ: [custom field :'item price] €
<?php $price = get_post_meta(get_the_ID(),'item_price',true);?>
'<?php _e("Price/per: Τιμή/τεμ: "); ?><?php echo $price;?><?php echo "\\xE2\\x82\\xAc";?>'
What i'd like to do is create a shortcode so i don't have to go to html and copy paste this snippet in every post. Instead i'd like to type [price] and simply set a value to my custom field. The custom field is also displayed in the categories and soon in the store page. So i'd like to automate this as much as possible. I've tried to make the shortcode in several ways and i've tried several insert php to post plugins... All my function.php attempts result in a white screen and the site going unresponsive, the only way to recover is to ftp a copy of function.php to replace my changes.. No empty space is left at the end btw.
The site is mainly empty due to small issues but the link is <snip>
Another issue i have, is there any way to automatically fill in the style variable when adding an image to post? Everytime i have to click, image properties, advanced and type into styles : border-radius:10px;
Wordpress manual has good explanation on how to make shortcodes http://codex.wordpress.org/Shortcode_API, there's not that much work to get it done.As for image styles, you can add style to your style.css and target all post images:
.post img {
Thank you so much for the style code, it works great even if it doesn't show the image oval in post the result is perfect

IT was a big day for New Brighton who clinched the South Lancashire / Cheshire One title with three matches remaining.
Birkenhead picked up a losing bonus point but now trail their Clatterbridge rivals by four points.
A key decision in the third quarter had a major bearing on the outcome with Park's Lawrence Cowan dismissed for alleged foul play which was claimed to be retaliation.
At the time Park were ahead 15- 12 but Wirral took advantage of the situation to score a crucial third try via Craig Harvey with their opponents down to thirteen men at the time through a yellow card.
The visitors were against the elements in the opening period but managed two forward tries via Stu Brown plus an unlikely touchline conversion by Dave Hall.
Alistair Baker and James Annetts ran in excellent touch downs for Wirral with a Harvey goal making it 12-12 at the half way stage.
A Hall penalty nudged Birkenhead in front before the Harvey try and then a penalty by the same player saw Wirral to a double after a tense last quarter.
The title and automatic promotion is still in the balance but really it is in Wirral's hands.
They have enjoyed a terrific season to date and can make sure by winning their last three outings which is very much on the cards.
That would leave Birkenhead facing a play-off, probably at home, for the second promotion spot.
Caldy travelled to Birmingham Solihull in National Two North.
They found the Midlands outfit to strong and fell to their fifteenth reverse 15-35 but are safely placed towards mid table.
New Brighton were too good for Wigan at Hartsfield and finished 32-10 winners. Win number 22 put them 18 points clear of nearest rivals Northwich.
Wigan did not surrender easily but Joe Silcock was the first to breach their defence with the conversion and two penalties by Anthony Birley earning the Blues a 13-3 interval lead.
Kati Tuipulotu helped himself to a brace of touch downs later with Joe Cardus also getting in on the try act.
Influential fly-half Birley added two more goals and it was time to celebrate.
Brighton can now enjoy the last stages of the campaign and the Cheshire Vase final before preparing for next season in North One West.
Anselmians are third in the table after edging the verdict 26-22 in the Isle of Man against Douglas.
Hoylake went down 22-33 against West Park at Melrose Avenue but now have a big chance of escaping the drop with second bottom Tyldesley having been docked a vital ten points.
Port Sunlight came away 37-5 to the good from Dukinfield in Division Two but it was another demanding day for winless Wallasey who were beaten 0-53 at Ormskirk.
In Division Three Ellesmere Port beat Oxton Parkonians 14-10 and share top place in the table with Trentham.
Prenton came away 45-21 to the good from Capenhurst whilst Oldershaw played out a 19-19 draw against Congleton at Belvidere.
Caldy have a tough but attractive home clash with table toppers Macclesfield this Saturday.
Birkenhead Park should be too strong for lowly Altrincham Kersal at the Upper Park whilst Wirral take the road to Warrington.
There is an Anselmians v Hoylake derby with New Brighton away at Ashton on Mersey who are facing relegation.
Other fixtures include Port Sunlight at Bowdon, Wallasey v Orrell, Ellesmere Port at Congleton, Oxton Parkonians v Helsby and a Prenton v Oldershaw derby.

This is what Tiger Woods cheated on.
Because my journalistic instincts enable me to cut to the very essence of a story, here's more bikini pictures of Tiger Woods' wife that surfaced online thanks to their inability to argue without taking a sand wedge to an Escalade. I'm pretty sure the only way I'd get tired of having sex with this woman is if we were married for five years and I had enough money to make cocktail waitresses pretend golf is a turn-on. — Wait.

On the night before His Crucifixion, Jesus Christ met with His Apostles and instituted the sacrament (see Luke 22:19–20). After His Resurrection, He instituted the sacrament among the Nephites (see 3 Nephi 18:1–11). Today the sacrament is an ordinance in which Church members partake of bread and water in remembrance of Jesus Christ's atoning sacrifice. This ordinance is an essential part of worship and spiritual development. Through this ordinance, Church members renew the covenants they made with God when they were baptized.
Additional Information
When He instituted the sacrament, Jesus Christ said, "This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me. … This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you" (Luke 22:19-20). The sacrament provides an opportunity for Church members to ponder and remember with gratitude the life, ministry, and Atonement of the Son of God. The broken bread is a reminder of His body and His physical suffering—especially His suffering on the cross. It is also a reminder that through His mercy and grace, all people will be resurrected and given the opportunity for eternal life with God.
The water is a reminder that the Savior shed His blood in intense spiritual suffering and anguish, beginning in the Garden of Gethsemane and concluding on the cross. In the garden He said, "My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death" (Matthew 26:38). Submitting to the will of the Father, He suffered more than we can comprehend: "Blood [came] from every pore, so great [was] his anguish for the wickedness and the abominations of his people" (Mosiah 3:7). He suffered for the sins, sorrows, and pains of all people, providing remission of sins for those who repent and live the gospel (see 2 Nephi 9:21-23). Through the shedding of His blood, Jesus Christ saved all people from what the scriptures call the "original guilt" of Adam's transgression (Moses 6:54).
Partaking of the sacrament is a witness to God that the remembrance of His Son will extend beyond the short time of that sacred ordinance. Part of this ordinance is a promise to remember Him always and a witness of individual willingness to take upon oneself the name of Jesus Christ and to keep His commandments. In partaking of the sacrament and making these commitments, Church members renew the covenant they made at baptism (see Mosiah 18:8-10; D&C 20:37).
In return, the Lord renews the promised remission of sin and enables Church members to "always have his Spirit to be with them" (D&C 20:77). The Spirit's constant companionship is one of the greatest gifts of mortality.
In preparation for the sacrament each week, Church members take time to examine their lives and repent of sins. They do not need to be perfect in order to partake of the sacrament, but they should have a spirit of humility and repentance in their hearts. Every week they strive to prepare for that sacred ordinance with a broken heart and a contrite spirit (see 3 Nephi 9:20).

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 17/8/2014 (1101 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
Police and fire crews pulled a body from the Red River at the Alexander docks Sunday afternoon -- it just wasn't the body they had been searching for since Friday.
Police were saying little Sunday other than to confirm it is a homicide.
The grisly discovery is also unrelated to an intensive search in the same area for a man who fell into the river three days ago.
Around 8 p.m. Sunday, police using a boat pulled what appeared to be a body from the Red River near Kildonan Park. No other details were available at press time.
Witnesses told accounts Sunday of a body found tightly bound in a bag or some kind of plastic, floating about 30 metres north of the docks near the shore.
'That's somebody's loved one. To witness something like that, it's really sad to see a human body dumped like that'
After the discovery, police divers were still seen continuing to search the river at a nearby train bridge for signs of the man who disappeared Friday.
"It is an apparent body but we don't know the identity," Winnipeg Fire and Paramedic Service platoon chief Ted Kuryluk said shortly after the emergency crews arrived.
Police cruisers and several emergency vehicles pulled up to the docks Sunday afternoon after a 911 call. They waited there for about an hour until the medical examiner arrived to remove the body.
Almost immediately after, police released a statement to say they were investigating the death as a homicide. There was no word on when an autopsy would be performed or when the results might be made public.
Witnesses described the scene as shocking and disturbing.
Three women and a little girl were at the docks around 1:30 p.m. when they saw a man and a boy walking a pair of dogs north of them along the river bank. The pair stopped suddenly and acted distressed, the women said.
They watched as the pair called the dogs to them and the man made a call on a cell.
In response, a fire truck and police cruisers arrived almost immediately.
As the women watched from metres away, authorities in a boat joined police officers at the docks. Divers retrieved a tightly bound bundle that appeared to hold a body, the witnesses said. It had floated to the surface about 30 metres north of the Alexander docks.
"It was wrapped in a bag or grey plastic or a grey blanket... This body here has got nothing to do with that (other) one. You can clearly tell; it's wrapped up in a bag," said one of the women who gave her name as Kim.
The man and the boy who called in the discovery spoke to police and then very briefly to media as they drove away from the docks.
"We were just walking along and we saw this body sticking out of the water," said the man.
He looked composed but shaken, a man in his late 30s at the wheel of the pickup, holding two small dogs in his lap. His 12-year-old son sat quietly in the passenger seat beside him.
He and his son, 12, had taken their dogs for a walk when they stumbled on the grisly find. The father said they drove here from Calgary and are headed back home in a few days.
The women said the tightly wrapped bundle held what appeared to be a body in a fetal position. Two of the women said they saw a hand, which appeared petite and possibly feminine, poking out from the bundle.
"The circumstances, where they found the body, you know there has to be more to the story. That's somebody's loved one," said one of the women, who gave her name as Loren. "To witness something like that, it's really sad to see a human body dumped like that."
All weekend, the Alexander docks had been the launching site for an entirely different reason.
Police had been engaged in an intensive sweep of the Red River, diving in an effort to recover the body of a man who was last seen Friday in the river, near the Provencher Street bridge.
A man was seen struggling in the current and was carried some distance before he submerged near the train bridge within sight of the docks.
Sunday, police divers and the harbour master had been focusing their search efforts at the bridge, until the discovery was made north of there.
On Friday, a river boat captain with the Splash Dash water taxi suffered a heart attack trying to rescue the man who'd fallen in the river. The riverboat captain had surgery over the weekend and is expected to recover.

Katie's Healthy Bites: 3 Refreshingly Minty Recipesby Katie Cavuto-Boyle in Uncategorized, May 30, 2010
When I think of mint, my mind drifts to a hot summer day and a frosty glass of herbal iced tea muddled with this refreshing and invigorating herb. But it's not just for tea — popular parings include lamb, carrots, spring peas and beans and desserts. There are over 500 varieties of the herb — here are a few of my favorites types and recipes.
Each type of mint has a distinct personality. Here are several types to try:
Spearmint: This type of mint adds the distinct flavor to Wrigley's Spearmint Gum. Make this herb your own by grabbing a handful of fresh leaves to flavor an iced tea, lemonade or fresh salsa.
Peppermint: One of the most pungent varietals, peppermint is the flavor you taste in many commercial toothpastes and liquors. Peppermint tastes great paired with sweets like hot chocolate, fresh fruit and marmalades or jams.
Lavender Mint: With a soft floral overtone, this variety has similar uses to peppermint and spearmint but is best used in cosmetics and cleaners as a fragrance. Want to try it? Lavender mint in tea is very soothing.
Basil Mint: Though tangy and spicy, I wouldn't call it basil. A splash of peppermint makes this treat an excellent complement to lamb or pork
Pineapple Mint: Sprigs of this citrus flavored herb can be warmed in a pot of water for tea, leaving behind its fruity sent.
Chocolate Mint: The chocolaty flavor of this mint adds rich dimensions to any kind of desert or quick bread recipe.
Plant Your Own!
Mint grows far and wide in semi-shaded, moist areas; it's been known to blanket any garden space. Planting it is the simple part; the challenge is keeping it tidy. To prevent it from disturbing the rest of your garden, confine it to a pot. All it takes is a 12-inch container filled with compost-rich potting soil. Sprinkle your seed, water regularly, and watch it flourish.
Too Much Mint?
Dry it! Bundle some fresh sprigs together and hang them upside-down in a paper bag in a warm, dark room. Wait for a couple of weeks until completely dry.
Here are a few of my favorite mint recipes…
Mint Ice Cubes
Fill ice cube trays with water. Submerge several mint leaves (you can use a different varieties) in each compartment. Freeze. Serve these beautiful ice cubes with water, ice tea, lemonade or your favorite cocktail.

The 2010 NFL Cheerleader Kickoff Awards
Running backs get the attention but your QB sets the tone for your team. Three of the four starting QBs are top ten picks and I have a feeling when all is said and done, the fourth one, Matthew Stafford, will finish in the top, too. Take Aaron Rodgers first. (Yes, over Drew Brees and Peyton Manning.)
Brett Favre should be solid this year, but don't expect last season's numbers, especially with sidekick Sidney Rice out after hip surgery. Percy Harvin and recent acquisitions Javon Walker and Greg Camarillo will do their best to fill the void, but Favre's ankle is an issue.

Box Score
PHILADELPHIA - Junior Courtney Wilson's turnaround jumper went in-and-out at the end of regulation, but her three-pointer in overtime officially sunk Bucknell as the University of Pennsylvania outlasted the Bison, 58-53, Monday night at The Palestra.
All five of Penn's contests have been decided by single digits. The Quakers (2-3) won their second straight and halted Bucknell's (5-3) five-game winning streak.
Wilson's 10-foot jumper with 1:21 left in regulation broke a 46-46 tie. Bucknell tied the game with 29 seconds left and the Quakers once again turned to Wilson. Her turnaround jumper in the lane went halfway down, but rolled out as time expired.
In the overtime session, the Quakers never trailed. Both teams managed just one field goal over the first four minutes of the extra frame, but freshman Keiera Ray, who had a team-high 13 points, had three free throws to put the Red and Blue in front, 53-50.
A pair of Bucknell free throws cut the lead to one, but that's when Wilson drained a three from the wing to put Penn up, 56-52, with just 45 seconds to play. That all but put the Bison away. The visitors made a free throw to briefly make it a one possession game, but Baron hit two free throws to seal the five-point victory.
It was a defensive battle from the start. Both teams shot just 23 percent in the first half. Penn jumped out to a 6-2 lead after Ray sunk a three at the 16:28 mark. But over the next five minutes, the Quakers only managed a layup from sophomore Katy Allen and Bucknell went up, 9-8.
That Bison lead only lasted 13 seconds as Ray hit home another three to spark an 8-2 run. When Allen sunk a triple from the top of the key, the Red and Blue were on top, 17-11, with 4:36 left in the half.
The Penn advantage grew to seven - the largest lead for either team on the night - when Wilson hit a three to go up 20-13 with 2:50 to go in the opening half. However, Bucknell scored the final four points and Penn's halftime lead was just 20-17.
A quick start to the second half had the Quakers back up by seven again, 26-19, after a pair of free throws from Allen at the 17:28 mark. But Bucknell went on a 9-0 run over the next three minutes to go up 28-26.
Bucknell held its largest lead of the night, 37-33, midway through the second half. But Penn responded with a 9-2 run - sparked by two layups from sophomore Kara Bonenberger and capped by a free throw from Ray for a 42-39 edge with 6:57 to play.
Junior Alyssa Baron, who finished with 12 points, five assists and six rebounds in 42 minutes, hit a jumper in the lane to go up 44-40. However, Penn only managed a pair of Bonenberger free throws over the next five minutes. Bucknell tied it at 46-46 before Wilson's basket gave Penn a brief lead with just over a minute remaining in regulation.
Wilson finished with a career-high six rebounds and four steals in addition to a season-high eight points. Ray added a career-high eight rebounds for the second straight game and had a career-best four assists. Bonenberger was the third Quaker in double figures with 10 points, while Allen had a season-high nine. Busch added three points and four rebounds off the bench.
Penn finished 19-of-66 (28.8%) from the floor, while Bucknell was 20-of-56 (35.7%). The Quakers held the Bison to 2-of-15 (13.3%) shooting from beyond the arc and connected on six of their 20 three-pointers (30.0%). Penn had just 12 turnovers compared to 13 assists, while forcing 21 Bucknell miscues. The Bison won the rebounding battle, 45-41.
The Quakers were 3-1 in an extra session last season and have won now four of their last five overtime games. Penn improved to 2-1 at The Palestra this year with its only loss a three-point defeat to Virginia of the ACC.
A pair of games in New York City await the Quakers - the first against St. Francis (N.Y.) on Wednesday at 7 p.m., and the next against LIU-Brooklyn on Sunday at 2 p.m.

Sapphire mITX and a Budget Tahiti GPUby Jarred Walton on 1/12/2013 2:17 AM EST

Back to Article
Robert Pankiw - Saturday, January 12, 2013 - linkAccording to the product page, the 7870 XT only has a 256bit memory bus, but Tahiti should have 384bit.
Source: http://www.sapphiretech.com/presentation/product/?...
What gives? If AMD let them name it the 7930, would it have the larger bus, or is it not allowed to be the 7930 because of the bus, or some other similar reasoning?
Regardless, it looks like a really attractive sub-$300 card. Reply
JarredWalton - Saturday, January 12, 2013 - linkI'm not sure on the bus; I would assume that's potentially the reason AMD is selling this harvested chip -- that maybe one of the memory controllers is flaky so they have to go with a 256-bit bus. Maybe that's also why AMD is requiring the part to be sold as a 7870 XT instead of 7930, but either way it's a decent looking card on paper. Reply
funguseater - Saturday, January 12, 2013 - linkPeople will be more inclined to buy a high end "upgraded" 7800 series than the lowest tier 7900, even though its just a number. Check out the reviews it gets almost the same performance as standard 7870 just marketing hoodoo to sell imperfect 7900's. Reply
Gc - Sunday, January 13, 2013 - linkFor double precision GPU compute, Tahiti has much higher performance than Pitcairn. According to specs listed at GPUZOO (http://www.gpuzoo.com/GPU-AMD/), the performance is very near the 7950.
160 GFLOPS DP, 2560 GFLOPS SP - 7870 GHz (Pitcairn)
710 GFLOPS DP, 2841 GFLOPS SP - 7870 XT (Tahiti LE)
716 GFLOPS DP, 2867 GFLOPS SP - 7950 (Tahiti)
761 GFLOPS DP, 3046 GFLOPS SP - 7950 Boost (Tahiti)
947 GFLOPS DP, 3788 GFLOPS SP - 7970 (Tahiti)
1024 GFLOPS SP, 4096 GFLOPS SP - 7970 GHz (Tahiti)
I wonder if these are measured LinPack numbers or theoretical maximums; I suspect the latter, especially the round numbers for 7870 GHz and 7970 GHz. Reply
CeriseCogburn - Monday, January 14, 2013 - link
It has an Intel socket on board for the cpu right ?
I checked the whole article twice - still no clue here other than the absence of information.
Instead we get amd vid card promo.
Well amd cpu's suck so badly it's so embarrassing, we just couldn't say it's a mobile Intel cpu socket.... right ?
They have to hide that fact. They made the author cover up too. Reply
LucianMLI - Tuesday, January 15, 2013 - linkYou can see in the 5th picture on the box it says it uses an AMD APU Reply

The Northwood Idea
Bringing the lessons of the American free-enterprise society into the college classroom.
We view a Northwood University education as an investment in your future. Any person who devotes time to a Northwood education gives up the opportunity to devote that time to all the other pursuits he or she might engage in during that time.
The Value of The Idea
Northwood graduates emerge prepared to shape their world.
We believe and teach that…
- Competitive, productive effort can overcome obstacles, solve problems and achieve goals
- Human beings can make a difference in the world in which they live
- Political and economic freedom are of paramount importance in releasing creativity and productivity
- Sacrifice – savings – is a necessary prerequisite to progress
- Equality of opportunity based on contribution and inequality of reward using the same criteria are not only appropriate, but the necessary conditions, in a system not forced into conformity with some master plan
- It is the differences among us that make us interesting and useful to each other
- We need the freedom to fail
- We must be free to bear the positive and negative consequences of our actions
- In a competitive system, all who participate benefit from it
- As a society we cannot gain from the establishment of legal monopolies except in a very few and constrained circumstances
- An understanding and appreciation of the arts and humanities is a primary source of human enrichment in the lives of productive human beings
- Education is never something that one person can do to another. It is, rather, something two people do together
We dedicate ourselves to…
- The elimination of artificial barriers to equal opportunity for all human beings. Racial, religious and sexual barriers are anathema to us.
We practice…
- A healthy skepticism of large and powerful government, because we think history has clearly demonstrated that such structures move rapidly from being of the people toward being over the people, and freedom is lost in the balance. Our intolerance of monolithic power is consistent across the business, labor and government spectrum.
On March 23, 1959, two young men with an idea, a goal and a pragmatic philosophy to encompass it all, broke away from their careers in a traditional college structure to create a new concept in education.
Their visionary idea became a reality when Dr. Arthur E. Turner and Dr. R. Gary Stauffer enrolled 100 students at Northwood Institute. They used a 19th century mansion in Alma, Michigan, as a school building, a small amount of borrowed money for operating expenses and a large amount of determination.
Northwood was created as the world was changing. The Russians had launched Sputnik and America was soon to follow. Stauffer and Turner watched the race to space. They envisioned a new type of university – one where the teaching of management led the way. While the frontiers of space were revealing their mysteries, Stauffer and Turner understood all endeavors – technical, manufacturing, marketing, retail, every type of business – needed state-of-the-art, ethics-driven management.
Time has validated the success of what these two young educators called "The Northwood Idea" – incorporating the lessons of the American free-enterprise society into the college classroom.
Dr. David E. Fry took the helm in 1982 and then Dr. Keith A. Pretty in 2006, each continuing the same ideals as Stauffer and Turner, never wavering from the core values. The University grew and matured. Academic curricula expanded; Northwood went from being an Institute to an accredited University, the DeVos Graduate School of Management was created and then expanded; the Adult Degree Program and its program centers expanded to over 20 locations in eight states; international program centers were formed in Malaysia, People's Republic of China, Sri Lanka, and Switzerland; and significant construction like the campus Student Life Centers added value to the Northwood students' experience. New endeavors such as Aftermarket Studies, entertainment and sports management and fashion merchandising, along with a campus partnership in Montreux, Switzerland, demonstrate an enriched experience for all our students.
With a clearly articulated mission to develop the future leaders of a global, free-enterprise society, Northwood University is expanding its presence in national and international venues. Professors are engaged in economic and policy dialogue; students are emerging as champions in regional and national academic competitions. At all campuses and in all divisions, Northwood University is energized and is actively pursuing dynamic programming and increased influence.
Northwood University educates managers and entrepreneurs – highly skilled and ethical leaders. With more than 35,000 alumni and a vibrant future ahead, The Northwood Idea is alive and well.

TPW Magazine July Issue Dives Into Gulf of Mexico
AUSTIN, Texas — As an ecosystem, the Gulf of Mexico functions on a global scale. At more than 579,000 square miles, it's the ninth largest body of water in the world. The July issue of Texas Parks & Wildlife magazine offers an in-depth exploration of the gulf from a number of angles.
With floodwaters from the Midwest rushing toward the gulf via the Mississippi River, Wendee Holtcamp's article, "Dead Zone," is particularly timely. Every summer, an area of oxygen-starved water forms at the mouth of the Mississippi, killing much of the region's marine life. In the special issue, readers can find out how the ethanol boom threatens to exacerbate the problem.
Also in this special issue, former TPWD Coastal Fisheries Director Larry McKinney delves into the gulf's dual roles as both an ecological and economic powerhouse in "The State of the Gulf of Mexico." Commercial gulf fisheries annually yield over 1.5 billon pounds. Shrimp are the predominant species and can account for 68 percent of total U.S. landings. Oyster production can exceed 24 million pounds and account for 70 percent of U.S. total landings. Recreational fishing is a significant economic engine — more than 45 percent of all saltwater anglers fish in gulf waters.
Joe Nick Patoski writes about "The Big Laguna," describing how the long, shallow and pristine Laguna Madre serves as the lifeblood of the gulf. Melissa Gaskill pens "Gardens of the Gulf," which details the wonders of the annual mass coral spawing event at the Flower Garden Banks coral reef. Larry Bozka contributes "Underwater Oasis," a look at the role oil rigs and sunken ships play as artificial reefs for fish and other marine animals. In "Hidden Giants," Elaine Robbins writes about the gulf's largest residents: sperm whales. Eileen Mattei's "Fishing for Dollars" examines the gulf's commercial fisheries. And in a nod to the gulf's fun side, Sheryl Smith-Rodgers contributes "10 Best Beaches," describing the prime spots for birdwatching, fishing, camping or simply escaping from civilization.
The special issue is the seventh in an award-winning annual series of July issues covering water resource challenges facing Texas. The first special water issue, titled The State of Water, debuted in 2002. This set the stage for the series, which has covered a broad range of topics about springs, rivers, aquifers and bays. It also launched a multi-year, multi-media communication effort of the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department under the name Texas: The State of Water.
Texas Parks & Wildlife magazine has a tradition of award-winning quality. The 2005 and 2006 July issues won top prizes for theme issues from the International Regional Magazine Association. The "State of Wetlands" and "State of Springs" special issues garnered a total of 11 top awards from the International Regional Magazine Association and the Western Publications Association.

About this Publication TitlePhotos - Native Americans (Rinehart)
Frank A. Rinehart, a commercial photographer in Omaha, Nebraska, was commissioned to photograph the 1898 Indian Congress, part of the Trans-Mississippi International Exposition. More than five hundred Native Americans from thirty-five tribes attended the conference, providing the gifted photographer and artist an opportunity to create a stunning visual document of Native American life and culture at the dawn of the 20th century.

Topic: LATEST MRI
Dear All,
We have had some good news / bad news and really do not know what to make of it! Originally I had thought we were in the better area when my Dad's CA 19-9 dropped to 134 from 1450 last month. This week we had MRI results / CA 19-9 results and as follows;
MRI, no new lesions, no shrinkage, however doctors report some lesions / tumors look like middle have been "necrosized" in other words he said had a "rotten center." So sounded like some positive news.
CA 19-9, went from 134 back up to 1305.
Doctors are a bit stressed and now thinking of switching regimen to Avastin / Gemzar. I am obviously quite depressed, as we had such good news for the last month or so and was hoping for better tumor marker. My dad's general condition is very good wtih no weight loss, good energy and even 45 mins on the treadmill 5x a week. Oncologist says let him think it over the weekend, but really worried as afraid of running out of options. People have said CA 19-9 not a really good marker, but Docs said in my dad's case he's pretty sensitive to this marker, so need to take it into account. That is it for now and if any suggestions please let us know.

A FINAL push of £5,000 has completed the match-funding target for a grant of £2.7million, ensuring the protection of Dorset heathland.
The generous £5,000 donation from Haskins Garden Centres Ltd has enabled Dorset Wildlife Trust and its partners to gain the Heritage Lottery Fund grant for its Great Heath Living Landscape project.
The aim is to protect and manage land which provides a wildlife-rich habitat for rare and threatened species, including the Dartford Warbler and all six UK reptiles, such as the nationally rare smooth snake and sand lizard.
Warren Haskins, chairman of Haskins, said: "As a child living in the region I explored many of the local heaths and woodland and enjoyed the variety of wildlife to be seen. I'm delighted that these areas are now to be protected by the trust."
Brian Bleese, the trust's director of operations, added: "We are very grateful to Haskins Garden Centres for this generous donation which has helped DWT to reach its fundraising target for the Great Heath Living Landscape Project.
"We are pleased that so many individuals, schools, local groups and businesses, both large and small have recognised the importance of this project for both people and wildlife and have chosen to support it."
With help from the grant and £2million of local fundraising they have bought nearly 1,500 acres of wildlife-rich land in east Dorset, Poole, Bournemouth and Christchurch.
The next phase will create a network of access across the area and there will be events and volunteering activities.
However the project still needs funds for associated projects such as improving access, land management and site interpretation.

Outstanding cyclists of all ages have had their achievements acknowledged at an awards evening in Otley.
Otley Cycle Club made more than 60 presentations to members aged from seven to 84 at the event, which was held at the Old Otliensians Rugby Club on Friday, January 24.
Among the winners were:
- Eighty-year-old Peter Yates, who won the Veterans Best All Rounder Trophy and the joint Club Person of the Year award, for becoming the National 24 Hour Time Trial Champion by cycling 24 hours – and 343 miles – without sleep.
- Emily Middlebrook, who received a Gold Standard Award for the Under-12s for winning the National Roller Racing Competition at the age of seven
- Rebecca Sharpe, who won the overall Time Trial Championship women's award with 40 points accumulated in various competitions, and was the fastest women on the Triangle Circuit.
Many members of the Cullen family — who, between them, collected 18 per cent of all the awards on the night – were also celebrating. James Cullen won the Best All Rounder award, while his brother, Ian, received the Track Championship Plaque. Ian's son, Tom, was the fastest Otley rider on the Hill Climb Champion with his sister, Megan, who won the National Champion Grass Track Competition, also winning a Gold Standard Award.
Megan collected the 10 Mile (Under-16) Award based on handicap, too, while James Cullen's daughter, Lucy, won the Bronze Standard for under-12s.
A special award was also presented to the widow of John Robb (received on her behalf by Ken Hodginson), a member who died suddenly in 2013, in recognition of his contribution to the club.
Press secretary Jill Birch said: "It was a fun-filled evening as new and old members got to know each other and had fun selecting raffle prizes from a generous selection of donated items.
"This included a voucher from the Shoulder of Mutton in Kirkby Overblow, where one of our members will now be able to enjoy a delicious meal.
"This year the club took a decision to shop local for the trophy engraving and were delighted with the hard work and service delivery by Shoe Craft in Otley.
"Their careful work ensured all trophies were engraved with the correct names and delivered on time."
Otley Cycle Club has been running for more than 50 years and has British Cycling qualified riders, Go Ride accreditation, and more than 200 members.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 15/2/2013 (1647 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
The Oscars like a little bit of controversy -- not too much, of course, but enough to make people notice. There's a buzz of debate surrounding several Best Picture nominees this year, from Django Unchained, with its unsettling, slap-happy treatment of slavery, to Zero Dark Thirty, with its murky look at America's post-9/11 use of torture.
Strangely, though, the most shocking Best Pic nominee might be Amour, which deals with the commonplace experiences of aging, illness and death. It's getting harder and harder to scandalize audiences with extremes of sex and violence, with loaded historical topics and sensationalized socio-political issues. This straight-on depiction of old age, on the other hand, is genuinely revolutionary. By gazing unflinchingly on the end of life, Austrian auteur Michael Haneke is busting one of cinema's last taboos.
Amour is an unusual example of shock cinema, being meticulously framed, deliberately paced and carefully distanced. Anne and Georges (Emmanuelle Riva and Jean-Louis Trintignant) are retired musicians who treat each other with courtly affection. The walls of their elegant Parisian apartment are lined with paintings, books and music, the visible markers of the life of the mind. But it is the life of the body that occupies Amour. Anne suffers a series of strokes, which take first her mobility, then her speech, then what she sees as essential dignities.
Haneke, possibly the most bringdown director currently working, has made a career out of torturing the bourgeoisie, breaking the smooth surfaces of their lives with sudden inexplicable acts of onscreen savagery (violent home invasions, random mass shootings, post-apocalyptic chaos). In Amour he is so subdued that critics don't know what to think. Is this a late-in-life surge of humanity, that autumnal sense of fullness and generosity that sometimes hits older European filmmakers? ("Haneke goes cruelty-free," proclaims one film writer.) Or is this just another sadomasochistic exercise, cleverly disguised as empathy? According to this view, Haneke hasn't stopped wielding the knife; he's just sharpened the scalpel for finer cuts.
So, cruelty or compassion? For some it's a bit of both. "A masterpiece you might not want to see," reads the headline of a review by American novelist Francine Prose. Her belief in the work's genius is at war with her impulse to warn people away.
There is tenderness here, but it's of the most painful kind. Anne bars visitors, because she wants no witnesses to her narrowing life, her inevitable decline. "None of that deserves to be shown," she states, with crisp rationalism. Haneke underlines Anna's intense sense of sense of privacy and emotional reserve while at the same time violating it. A scene in which a nurse dispassionately demonstrates how to change an adult diaper is filmed with a kind of clinical intimacy.
Amour is unsparing about old age. We watch Trintignant shuffle with wary slowness across a parquet floor. We see Riva's lovely face go slack and ugly with fatigue and fear. At the same time, film fans also hold images of these two famous French movie stars as eternally young. (Riva is known for Hiroshima Mon Amour and Trintignant for A Man and a Woman.) It's a poignant juxtaposition that forces us to recognize the fragility of flesh. And the physicality of Amour is astonishing. One of Riva's pale legs being raised in a rehabilitation exercise is more shocking, more exposed, more nakedly naked than any Hollywood nude scene.
And how often do we see cinematic depictions of 80-something love? That, too, has the critics divided. Haneke's titles can be tricky. If he calls a film Amour, there is every possibility that it's an emotional time-bomb wrapped as a Valentine's present. Some critics view the film as a resounding affirmation of the way love conquers death. More pessimistic critics, meanwhile, suggest that death might be conquering love, or at the very least changing its shape. Either way, Haneke is exploring love in its fullest sense, defined at its unsentimental extremities.
Haneke has made some shocking movies, filled with graphic ultra-violence and calculated visceral jolts. But Amour, in its own quietly relentless way, might be the hardest of his films to watch. One of Haneke's persistent themes is that modern western culture is incapable of coming to terms with fundamental facts like death. The fact that Amour is provoking such strong reactions suggests that he has a point. Most of us will face age and illness; all of us face mortality. And yet truthful cinematic depictions of these human conditions are rare. The fact that the universal feels so unusual demonstrates why Amour is a very difficult but very necessary film.

I'm not sure who Miami waives to get Bynum. They'd love to get rid of Joel Anthony, but not enough to eat two years of his salary to pick up Bynum, and they're not going to get rid of Mason or Beasley. And I'm not sure if he's a complete game-changer with Miami. I think they're going to see if Oden can play.
But he could potentially be a game-changer for the Clippers. They're backup bigs are Antawn Jamison, Byron Mullens, and Ryan Hollins, and Blake Griffin can't play center. That means they're going to have to rely on DeAndre Jordan in crunch time, who I still don't totally trust in big playoff games. Bynum would be a nice insurance policy to have. I thought that person would be Emeka Okafor, but Phoenix is unexpectedly good, and I don't think they'll cut him now.
So, in short, I think the Clippers are more likely to sign Bynum than Miami.

10 All-Natural Tips for All Hair Types
Like all hair, brows and lashes have three phases of life: anagen (growing), catagen (transitional), and telogen (resting and shedding). The longer the anagen phase—the average is one to two months for lashes and brows—the longer the hair (strands on the scalp can be in anagen for up to eight years). The follicles alternate phases, ideally preventing patchy, hairless spots. There are approximately 100 to 150 lashes arranged in two or three rows on the upper eyelid and half that amount on the lower lid—though there are always exceptions. Elizabeth Taylor famously had an extra row of lashes, which made her violet eyes even more striking.
Abbreviated brows? You're not alone. "Hair loss at the outer edge is more common as we age," Kaufman says. Before seeking topical treatment, visit a doctor to rule out anything serious. "A decrease in lateral brow hair can be a sign of thyroid disease," says NY-based derm Meghan O'Brien, MD. Tweezing and waxing can cause trauma to follicles and halt growth, says Omaha-based dermatologist Joel Schlessinger, MD. But healthy hair can regrow with a little help. "I've had many patients find success using Latisse off-label on the brow," says O'Brien. Minoxidil, the active ingredient in Rogaine, may also work but is more difficult to apply, Schlessinger says. International derms stimulate growth with mesotherapy injections, but a 2010 International Journal of Trichology article stated the practice lacked reliable results.

smaller cases
another pc question: can I get away with a decently specced PC is a small case? My current (and old ) pc is a big hulking thing. I'm planning on getting a new machine soon, probably based round the "hard choices" advice. But if I stick a speedy i5 and new GPU in a smaller case, am I going to have cooling/noise problems?
I don't really play high end shooters, although I would like to play Sins:Rebellion on a large map with extra shineyness :)
I like quiet pcs :) Reckon I'm maybe best just sticking with big fullsize tower cases?
I used to have a Shuttle and loved it, but it had a serious problem with heat. I had to leave the case off and point a desktop fan into it to keep it from overheating. This was a first generation case, so maybe issues have been worked out since then?
Here's a pic:

No reason you can't make a high-power gaming build in a mATX or even ITX case. There's a rather nice little ITX case from Bitfenix that can even fit watercooling or massive CPU coolers like the NH-D14. Or the Silverstone SG06 is rather nice if you want something smaller still. Both cases can accomodate most dual-slot graphics cards, and have ample ventilation for them, although if noise is a concern you might want to choose your graphics card carefully as they tend to be rather loud under load and there's nothing to blocks the noise being produced.
Of course, ITX motherboards are rather limited in terms of upgrade potential due to their size. You're only going to get a single PCI-E slot, only two DIMM slots, and a limited number of SATA ports, so it's a lot more limiting. You could of course go for a mATX based system, which can have more than enough upgrade potential for most people (my current system is mATX). There's not all that many nice mATX cases around to be honest, but Silverstone is a good brand to check out for these as well.
EDIT: The Shuttles had very poor cooling, and also pretty awful non-standard PSUs that liked to fail on a regular basis. I'd always recommend going for something in a standard form factor (eg mATX or ITX), and using a standard PSU form like ATX or SFX, that way you aren't stuck with proprietary parts.

These guys nailed it. Heat is an issue in a small case - the empty space in larger cases is essential for airflow. Also, nonstandard PSUs are low-powered and can't handle beefy gaming components. Using a small case essentially introduces many limitations of laptop gaming to the desktop.
