Watch: Houston WR Demarcus Ayers makes one-handed catch, throws TD
Houston Cougars wide receiver Demarcus Ayers made an impressive one-handed catch against the Navy Midshipmen on Friday for a 62-yard touchdown.
With Houston ahead 31–17 late in the third quarter, quarterback Greg Ward, Jr. lobbed a pass twenty yards down the middle of the field to Ayers. While on the run, Ayers extended his right hand into the air to pull in the pass in stride. Then, he blew by two Navy defenders, angled down the left sideline and took the ball another 40 yards to put the Cougars up by three scores.
The catch was Ayers's seventh of the day, bringing his total to 163 yards.
Navy answered with an ensuing seven-play, 82-yard drive to make the score 38–24.
Ayers came right back on the next drive with a passing touchdown on a trick play.
The Cougars are now 11–1 after defeating No.15 Navy, 52–31.

text: When is the last time you were this satisfied after a win? Id have to say for me it was either the early season win vs. the Jests when Henne hit Ginn deep or the win vs. the Jests that capped off the playoff run lead by Pennington. WHAT A VICTORY. We straight up rolled into New Giants Stadium and handled business today. Gangnam style too. :lol: Can Joe Philbin's package get any bigger? Seriously. You know what nobody else has bothered to mention today? Youre not going to convence me that the blocked punt wasnt the result of something the coaching staff picked up on during film study in respect to something Tim Tebow does in punt protection. Id bet anybody that someone on the staff noticed something during the bye week. Im also pretty confident this may have lead to the decision to attempt that onside kick. I mean, why not? If they felt they had that blocked punt in their back pocket, why not roll the dice on the onsides kick early? The whole gameplan was just ****ing brilliant. Ive got a feeling we can get used to our team playing really well out of the bye week under Joe Philbin and his staff. What I liked best was that it seems the plan was to go in there and put our foot right on the Jests ****ing throats from the jump. SET THE ****ING TONE!!!! Go in and silence these bitches early. ATTACK. Score on the opening drive and go for the onsides kick. Get them down early. Have the block punt ready, put the Jests in a huge hole, and dont let them climb out this time. Philbin is a beast. Gotta tip the cap to Matt Moore. What a professional. What a leader. This guy couldve easily been unprepared to do his job. He couldve sulked like a lot of QBs do when they dont win the starting nod. But, of course Moore stepped up. The phins offense wasnt great today, but it MORE than did the job. The biggest key was Moore did not turn the ball over. That was one of the key reasons the Jests were able to beat us in the first game. A big turnover let them back in the game despite us dominating. Not today though. Give Moore all kinds of credit. Its great to have a guy on the bench who all of the players have tremendous respect for. Its great to have a guy who we know can come in and do a solid job. We all know if something happens to Tannehill again, Moore will be ready to answer the bell in the biggest of spots. Anyone wanting to trade this guy is lost. There is no way we could get anything close to what his value is to this team at this point. He made some great throws today and lead us to some scores we needed to put this game out of reach. The whole team did a great job of keeping themselves composed today. It wouldve been real easy to go in there and get a bunch of dumb penalties that kept the Jests in the game. Instead, they picked their spots well. Bush talking **** to Rex on the sideline after that run was awesome. I wouldve loved to have had a microphone down there for that exchange. **** REX RYAN!!! :lol: Now let me deliver a message to each and every Jests player, coach, and fan............ EAT THAT **** you cocksucking mother ****ers!!!!! BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMM *****!!!!!!! We came in there and BUSTED THAT ***!!!! It wasnt even a competition. The superior team dominated from start to finish. You were out manned and OUT CLASSED! Rex.... you eat too much hot sauce. The problem with you and hot sauce is the diarrhea comes straight out your mouth instead of that fat ***. You tried the surgery, but nothing seems to shut that mouth down other than stuffing toes and other men's genitals in it after they bang your wife. Tony Sparano..... No fist pumps today? Why not? Your offense blows pal. Your whole coaching skill blows. Go back to coaching HS games alright bro. All the players who talk ****..... Yall aint ****. Keep believing your own hype though. The only head hunting you should be doin is HEAD COACH hunting. Your leader is as big a fool as you are. For the Jests fans..... Save your spin and your excuses. The Phins are flat out better than the Jests in every aspect of the game. Offense, defense, special teams, home stadiums, cheerleaders, fans, you name it the phins are better. Youre so lucky to have won the first time they played. You should be 2-6. Your team is hot garbage. You had one good season a few years ago and thats it. Thats all you have. Your drafts are terrible and your team will never amount to anything. Enjoy battling the Bills for last place every year for a while. Perhaps you should find your way to the Bills forums and spin your bull**** there. That **** is tired as hell. Try it out with a team more on your level. So you can run and tell THAT! Homeboy. Let me hand out some grades before I get way too real for even a get real thread. Coaching staff - A+ Philbin for coach of the year. For real. Quarterbacks - A Matt Moore > any Jests QB I can remember Running backs - A This unit wasnt spectacular, but they beat the ****ing Jests.... A OL - A Kept Moore upright. Stayed away from penalties. Did get Tannehill sacked and it lead to his injury, but they beat the ****ing Jests.....A WRs - A Marlon Moore bitches. Not a great game by this group, but they beat the ****ing Jests...... A DL - A+ This group needs a nickname too. Today they were the Arizona border patrol. Best unit on the team. Its a recurring theme LBs- A You know what. I gave Dansby a bunch of **** early in the year for some of his comments. But, this guy pulled his nutsack out today and brought it to the ****ing Jests. The guy was injured and couldve easily stayed on the sideline during this blowout, but he manned the **** up like a real leader does. Way to be Karlos. Props. DBs - A Sean Smith is getting too good. If this group ever comes together and plays solid on a week to week basis, this D is going to be legit as ****. Im talking a D that can take us places in the playoffs. How bout Jimmy Wilson today getting it done in all areas. How bout the improved play of the safeties. Special Teams - A+ Dominated all day. They made Westhoffs decision at the end of the year pretty easy............. retire so Philbin's staff dosent make me look foolish again. :lol: Upcoming next week is a MONSTER game on the road vs. Indy. The winner will place themselves firmly in the playoff picture with Denver, Houston, New England, Baltimore, and Pittsburgh. Its time to take a HUGE step next week. This game could be huge for tiebreak scenarios. If we win this one, we are CLEARLY in position to go to the playoffs. The top 6 will have seperated themselves with this game next week. Gotta do it on the road. LETS ****ING GO!!!!!!!! Elsewhere in the NFL today....... MATTY ICE!!! :lol: (You bitches knew this was coming so dont act like its a surprise) Matty Ice goes on the road to one of the leagues overrated hype machines in Philly and cools down that D son. Just take a gander at the first half stats. Peyton or Matty Ice are taking home the MVP. Matty Ice improves to 7-0 and starts to really seperate his team from the rest of the pack. Also, the megahype machine that is Bob Griffin the turd, megabust extrordinaire, shows a sign of whats to come. Finally a D coordinator comes up with something to shut that running threat down and forces RGBust to throw the ball....... resulting in the numbers he produced today. :lol: Again, just watch it happen. More and more teams will see the film and most will have the personel to copy it. Hell, if the Steelers OLD defense can do it, I know other teams can. Once his running is taken away, you will see him for the ****ty QB he really is. NFL skills are not present. I cant wait to pull all of those old threads where everyone is sure he is a beast and Im out of my mind for not thinking likewise. Griffin blows. PHINS UP!!! **** THE JESTS!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why Korean Stars are unique

Posted in WikinutWritingColumns & Opinions
A small list on why Asians are going gaga over Korean Stars.
Anyong Haseo everyone!
Small kids, big kids, and people of all ages love 'em. People are going crazy over them , girls scream over their Korean idols, guy drool over the korean sexy girls. Many asians are addicted to their dramas because of their unique twists. But, there's more to it right?
More! more! more! you love korean stars when you ...
1. Love the way their outfit looks ,even if it looks too large for them that they already looked liked little kids with overgrown-shirts
Yup, a typical korean star can be thin like small kid that wears over sized shirts but can still make a fashion statement but unfortunately to a normal Asian, it can look a lil bit stupid . Heh.
2. Memorized all the lyrics in their songs even if it is composed of repeated lyrics and you don't even understand it one bit
Usually ,Asians can go crazy to a boy band or a girl band in korea even if they don't understand it one bit. I can't blame them since koreans can compose lyrics that are catchy and good in beats. Top it off with awesome dance moves and viola they have made a viral music video.
3. Downloaded all the latest episodes of Korean dramas
- Most Asians are crazy about the dramas because of it's typical , handsome-filthy-rich-arrogant-boy suddenly fells in love with poor-unfortunate-mostly acting stupid-kind-of-girls kind of love story. Don't ever forget the famous little kids-who-have-grown-up-over-the-years-but-are-still-inlove-with-each-other kind of story. Sigh, korean dramas have it all.
4. Don't forget their famous Korean FOOD
-Man oh man, i would loooveee to try their famous foods shown in korean dramas. They made it look oh sooo yummy with their slurping in the middle of the winter eating with still smoking hot noodles.
5. Phones that are almost always identical XD
- Have you ever noticed that all phones that are used in Korean dramas are almost always looks identical with each other ? Usually it Samsung , korea's most famous brand of cellphone. Oh and they seem to have the identical ringtone too!
Do you also love korean stars? Share them here!

The Pentagon is still playing stupid (effortlessly I may add) as far as this missile is concerned.They are denying it was a missile, but anyone with half a brain can see that is a lie. I was telling my father that we are very close to war literally the same time that this missile was launched, but it was not reported until the next morning on the East Coast.
Here are some interesting details…
NOT one person in the media, (Michael Savage included) has mentioned that the Russians launched an ICBM on Nov. 1st, 2010. Notice how China's 2007 submarine incident was brought up, but not the fact that the Russians have tested over 13 ICBM launches?
It is also interesting that this missile launch happened while Obama was out of the country and a day after Russia and China both voiced their outrage at the FED for printing more money. We are not fighting a bare foot Muslim in a cave folks. WE are fighting proxies of Russia and China via Iran.
If this missile was launched by a Russian or Chinese submarine, expect major terrorism and war very soon. It is long overdue…
1. This missile was fired from a Russian or Chinese submarine
2. This was fired by the US Navy and it was a message to Russia and China
Russia test fired an ICBM on Nov. 1st….

Dane Clark
Original name: Bernard Zanville
Feb. 26, 1912
Kings County (Brooklyn)
New York, USA
Sep. 11, 1998
Santa Monica
Los Angeles County
California, USA
Actor. Known by his self-described image as "Joe Average," his 50-plus year career spanned Broadway, films, and television. Born Bernard Zanville to Jewish immigrants, his father owned a sporting goods store. After graduating from Cornell University at Ithaca, New York he earned a law degree at St. John's University School of Law in Queens, New York. During the Great Depression, he worked as a boxer, baseball player, construction worker, and model. It was his modeling career that brought him into acting and he began on the Broadway stage, graduating from small parts to more important roles, which included the role of 'George' from actor Wallace Ford in the 1937 production "Of Mice and Men." In 1943 he was signed to a contract by Warner Brothers Studios and appeared often in war movies like "Action in the North Atlantic" (1943, his breakthrough part, with Humphrey Bogart), "Destination Tokyo" (1943, with Cary Grant), "God Is My Co-Pilot (1945, with Dennis Morgan), and "Pride of the Marines" (1945, with John Garfield). According to Clark, it was Bogart gave him his stage name. He was voted the 16th most popular star at the US box office in 1945 and in the September 1946 edition of Movie Life Magazine, he was dubbed "the most stylish actor in Hollywood". During the 1950s, he became one of a small group of actors (excluding the original 'founding' members brought in at the Studio's inception) awarded life membership in The Actors Studio. He played the role of 'Peter Chambers' in the short-lived radio show "Crime and Peter Chambers," a half-hour show that aired from April until September 1954. In the 1954-1955 television season, he co-starred as the character 'Richard Adams' in the NBC crime drama "Justice," about attorneys of the Legal Aid Society of New York. In 1959 he reprised Humphrey Bogart's role as 'Slate' in the short-lived television series "Bold Venture," a short-lived television series. He also guest starred on a number of television shows, including "Faye Emerson's Wonderful Town," "Appointment with Adventure," "Your Show of Shows," "Rawhide," and "The Twilight Zone." He also played the role of 'Lieutenant Tragg' in the short-lived revival of "The New Perry Mason" CBS television series in 1973. His film career totaled 30 films, with his final appearance in "Last Rites" (1988, with Tom Berenger). He died of cancer at the age of 86. He has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame for his contributions to television.

USF Bulls
Collins clutch as USF beats Cincinnati
TAMPA - All season long, University of South Florida coach Stan Heath has talked about his confidence in freshman point guard Anthony Collins. Sunday afternoon, with USF fighting to preserve its flip-of-the-coin NCAA Tournament hopes, Heath put that belief on display. Suddenly down by one point to the Cincinnati Bearcats in the final seconds, Heath disdained a time out and allowed Collins to create a game-winning opportunity. Collins alertly drove inside and drew a foul. Then he drained two free throws with 3.2 seconds remaining, giving USF a riveting 46-45 Big East Conference victory against Cincinnati before 6,784 fans at the Tampa Bay Times Forum. USF moved to 18-11 overall and 11-5 in the Big East, tied with Georgetown for fourth place, with two regular-season games remaining. The Bulls, who are 14-1 at home venues with five home wins by three points or less, already had clinched a first-round bye in the conference tournament.Cincinnati (20-9, 10-6) had its three-game winning streak halted. "Anthony Collins is just playing incredible,'' Heath said. "I don't know how to explain it. He doesn't play like a freshman. He doesn't act like a freshman. But he sure makes things happen on the court for us. "That's the trust I have in our team and him just to say, 'Don't even worry about the time out. Just go down there and make something happen.' He's smart enough to figure it out, get fouled and coolly knock down two free throws.'' As for Collins, in his typical slack-jawed manner, he didn't overanalyze the situation. "Coach trusts me and my teammates trust me,'' said Collins, who had a game-high 14 points. "So I just go with it.'' Once again, USF's defense was the overall story. For the sixth consecutive game, the Bulls held an opponent to at least 20 points under their season scoring average (Cincinnati came in at 69.8 points per game). The Bearcats shot just 34 percent from the field and made only three of their 15 attempts from 3-point range. "It's Sunday morning in a hockey arena,'' said Cincinnati coach Mick Cronin, whose team was coming off a win against No. 17-ranked Louisville, which USF will face Wednesday night on the road. "I didn't think we were going to make shots to be honest with you. I think we needed to stop (USF from getting) the ball from going into the paint. That's why we lost the game. It's our fault for letting them get it there.'' Two of USF's biggest plays down the stretch were provided by inside players. Moments after Cincinnati took a four-point lead, its largest of the game, junior forward Toarlyn Fitzpatrick buried a 3-pointer with 2:23 remaining, pushing USF ahead 42-41. Again trailing by one point, Collins worked it inside to senior forward Ron Anderson Jr., who was fouled with 26.3 seconds remaining (and one tick left on the shot clock). Anderson's one-and-one attempt hit the back iron, bounced straight up … and in. Then he swished the second. "I was saying a lot of prayers at that time (on Anderson's first free throw) and I got a good answer, too,'' Heath said. "It was a good bounce for us. Whatever rims we're using here, we're going to take them over to the (renovated) Sun Dome (next season) because they seem to be working.'' "It was the craziest bounce of my career,'' Anderson said. "I'm glad it went in my favor.'' USF's advantage was erased by Cincinnati's Cashmere Wright, who threw in a runner with 9.5 seconds remaining, but that was just the cue for Collins to win the game and extend the Bulls' postseason case. Are the Bulls an NCAA Tournament team? "I'm not on the selection committee,'' Cronin said. "I'm rooting for them because Stan Heath is a great guy. … But I'm oblivious, to be honest with you. I don't watch any of those shows. I don't know anybody's numbers. I know nothing. I can't even get my team to stop the ball from going into the paint with the game on the line. The last thing I can do is tell you who should be in.'' "Before today, we were definitely on the outside looking in,'' Heath said. "Everybody kept talking about this is the part of their schedule that's either going to make or break them. The first leg, the first step, we passed. … We still need some wins. I still feel like winning down the stretch is going to be the answer to the questions.''

The Family Health Strategies, incorporated by the Ministry of Health in 1994, has consolidated the national policy of health care that has as its main care focus the family. In this model, this institution constitutes the first object of attention, understood from its environment and interaction. In recent decades, the Brazilian family structure is suffering profound changes that directly affect the practices of health care. This study redeem the family concepts and ideas and their social representations and still prove and present the importance and the necessity of the use of these ample instruments of collective boarding in health area: the APGAR, the genogram and eco-map, using the environment observation and family history - crucial factors to the reality of the nuclear family diagnosis - for further planning of health action strategies. It was concluded that the current structure of the family require training from the health teams, for physical, cultural, biological and social points of the family context for the correct use of the instruments cited, important tools for collective approach in the public health area.

|Nice route. Mostly 5.9 or easier climbing with a short crux section on smears near the 4th bolt. Gear or some webbing/cord through a constriction for the anchor - it would be difficult to set up a TR on this route. Be prepared to leave some slingage around the tree to rap, sometimes it disappears.

'Kitchen Nightmares' suicide may have had affair with pastry chef
It seems money may not have been the root of Kitchen Nightmares restaurateur Joseph Cerniglia, who was found dead in the Hudson River on Friday after jumping to his death from the George Washington Bridge. No, the New York Post implies it was because his marriage was over and he was dating his pastry chef. It's as good a theory as any, right?
The Post says Cerniglia had a thing going with his Campania cohort Jessica Marotta, and had separated from his wife Melissa. Gary Pollina, the owner of a nearby jewelry store, said that Cerniglia's marriage had been in trouble for some time.
They had been separated "for a long time ... I don't think they were doing so well even during Kitchen Nightmare (sic)," Pollina said. "I assumed (Cerniglia and Marotta were romantically involved) because of ... the way they interacted with each other. They were very close, and when the rest of the people went home, they would stay behind alone to clean up."

- Site of Metabolism (SOM) Scoring (with Molecular Mass Variance)
Each metabolite is analysed to predict further metabolism and the results are displayed in an interactive tree graphic along with supporting data, such as the reasoning behind each prediction, biotransformation details and metabolite path. The prediction is generated by applying expert knowledge rules in metabolism to the data returned from the knowledge base.
Meteor Knowledge Editor
Meteor Knowledge Editor enables you to create your own knowledge base that is based on the same schema used in the Lhasa-supplied Meteor knowledge base.
This means that you can effectively capture your organisation's knowledge from past research and make it useful and easily accessible to your current research programs. Using Meteor Knowledge Editor, you can create and add knowledge, such as:
- biotransformations and structure-activity relationships (SARs)
- knowledge rules
- literature references
Features of Meteor Nexus
Meteor Nexus has the following key features:
- Fast processing — Meteor Nexus has the ability to run one or multiple predictions quickly.
- Multiple knowledge bases — You can connect to, and process against, multiple knowledge bases simultaneously. This means that you can compare predictions from Lhasa knowledge and your own knowledge within seconds.
- Multiple Reasoning Methodologies — Meteor contains three different methodologies for assessing the likelihood of observed metabolites.
- Integration with SMARTCyp - The SMARTCyp program, developed at the University of Copenhagen, provides a prediction of the likely sites of Cytochrome P450 metabolism for a query compound. This program is integrated alongside Meteor Nexus to provide multiple metabolism predictions for consensus modelling.
- Multiple concurrent predictions — You can run multiple predictions concurrently and alongside Derek Nexus predictions and Vitic Nexus queries.
- Easy prediction setup and filtering — There is one setup screen that enables you to set up the prediction to suit your needs. After a prediction, you can also filter the results to focus on the metabolites that you are interested in.
- Certified Lhasa knowledge base — Lhasa has certified its own knowledge so this cannot be edited. This confirms that the predictions are based on knowledge that has been implemented by Lhasa. Your own, custom knowledge can be stored in a separate knowledge base, which can be used to generate predictions simultaneously with the Lhasa knowledge.
- Reasoning details — There is richly-detailed information for each prediction to help you to understand the basis of a prediction. There is also an easily accessible explanation of the impact that both the absolute and relative reasoning have had on the prediction results.
- Hyperlinked references - Where the information is available in the knowledge base, references are hyperlinked to the original online journal publication. Depending on the journal access permissions of the end user they will be able to see the whole article or just the abstract, with the option to purchase the article.
- Feature-rich results display — There are multiple ways to interact with and control the results. This makes it easy to focus on the information of interest. Additionally, you can open several query compounds simultaneously and create multiple predictions for each compound.
- Usability with mass spectrometry (MS) software - Meteor Nexus contains a tabulated report, which facilitates the import/export of information between Meteor Nexus and MS software. You can easily manipulate the information in the report:
- Modify the molecular masses of the predicted metabolites – for example, +/- a user-defined value.
- Remove duplicates.
- Specify the method of mass calculation: exact, nominal, average.
- Specify the method of mass difference calculation including mass defect.
You can easily import observed molecular masses from MS software, and matching predicted metabolites within Meteor Nexus will be highlighted.
- Export of predicted metabolite structures - You can easily export the structure of a predicted metabolite. This can be used for several purposes including further Meteor predictions, a Derek Nexus toxicity prediction or inclusion in proprietary reports.
- Duplicate handling - Duplicate metabolite structures are identified by Meteor Nexus. You can select to view only one instance of each duplicate and find other duplicates.
- Report customisation - You can customise the information that is included in the reports, and the order of this information. You can save customised report templates for future use. A tabulated report optionally contains any of the information available in the Meteor Nexus prediction results table.

How to Be a Dean's Lister – Part 1
This is part 1 of a 3-part series on How to Be a Dean's Lister.
- Part 1: What is Dean's List and 6 Key Benefits of Being A Dean's Lister
- Part 2: How to Be a Dean's Lister: Tips #1 – #6
- Part 3: How to Be a Dean's Lister: Tips #7 – #13
- Bonus: [Manifesto] How to Be a Dean's Lister
Recently I noticed there is a good number of students who read PE. So I figure it'll be useful for me to write a post on getting on the dean's list. This post will be beneficial for any student, not just university students, as it's about achieving academic excellence. Even if you aren't a student, it's still a good read. I reckon some of the tips shared here can be cross-applied to other areas in life.
Coincidentally it's the exam periods of the local universities right now (all the best to those sitting for exams now!), so these might come a little late for this semester. Use it as the prep guide from next semester onwards, and you'll be set to graduate with flying colors 🙂
What is a Dean's List?
Dean's List should be a familiar term to university students / graduates. Here's what Wiki has to say:
A Dean's List is a category of students in a college or university who achieve high grades during their stay in an academic term or academic year. .. Its meaning varies from institution to institution, and other terms are sometimes used instead in place of dean (e.g. provost's list, chancellor's list, president's list).
Dean's List, as the Wiki describes, is an honorary roll assigned to the top students. The GPA cut-off to get into the Dean's List varies across faculties and academic terms. If I were to give a ballpark estimate, your GPA has to be at least 3.6/4.0 or 4.5/5.0 (i.e., average of A- and A for all subjects) and above to be considered on the Dean's List. If students were more competitive in a particular term, the cut-off will be higher.
When I was studying in NUS (National University of Singapore), I was on the Dean's List for all 3 academic years I studied there. NUS Business School is a competitive faculty (it's a leading business school in Singapore and the Asia Pacific region), with a good number of students from top junior colleges and scholars from the neighboring countries, so it was an accomplishment to be on the list. I later graduated in 2006 as the top student in my specialization (Marketing). In my graduation year, I was also awarded gold medals for being the most outstanding student, which I was honored to receive.
Looking back, university years were easily my best years in my entire 2 decades of education, and I'm not saying that because I did well. The graduation from every academic phase from primary school → secondary school → junior college → university granted us students with increased freedom and liberty. It was something I really appreciated, especially being free-spirited at heart. IMO, bureaucracies and disciplinarian approaches hardly bring out the best in us — while there's merit behind the approaches, it's only short-term. In the long-term, they tend to stifle and suffocate. I share more here: Stop Shaming, Start Praising: What I Learned From Growing Up in a Shaming Culture
Why get on the Dean's List?
There are definite benefits from being a Dean's Lister, some of which are crucial and a couple that I consider more fringe benefits.
I'd like to highlight that these are benefits I experienced as a business student during my time (2003-2006). They might not apply to other universities/faculties/time periods, though I reckon they shouldn't differ much. The baseline upsides should be the same no matter where you are from.
6 Key Benefits of Being a Dean's Lister
- A sense of personal achievement. The most important reason, IMO. Getting on the Dean's List is clearly a great personal achievement to be proud of. Dean's List is not awarded on absolute GPA score; rather it's on comparative basis with your peers. Meaning if all your peers happen to be top academic whizzes, you have to be a super whiz to top them. Being on the Dean's List means you are pretty much in the top 1-5% of the faculty in terms of academic results.
- Increasing your employability factor. Ultimately we study in university to get a good job — our best possible job. While results is not the sole determinant behind getting a good job (there are your leadership activities, attitude, personality fit, etc), it is highly important, especially for top jobs with Fortune 100 companies. In fact, I'd go as far to say that a preliminary cut off that many top employers use especially for fresh graduates is academic results, especially for campus recruitment, though there are obviously exceptions if you have an immensely rich portfolio and CCA (core curricular activity) experience.
- Invitation to special events. Since you're among the top in your cohort, you'll be invited to special events. Most common being networking events with executives from other companies, usually top ones — the ones you might want to join. During my student years, I was often invited to such inner-circle networking events and talks. To be honest, of all the ones I've been to, I only found some of practical use – but it's always good to just be there and meet new people. There are also international case competitions, where participation is generally on invitation basis. Again, invitees are usually selected from the Dean's List first.
- Exclusive access to top employers. Top companies often hold recruitment events on campus. There are the recruitment seminars to masses, and then there are the exclusive networking sessions with smaller groups – whereby the students are selected on invitation basis. Not surprisingly, the HR in the top companies commonly request the Dean's Office to invite students of a certain cut-off GPA. Examples are Procter & Gamble (my ex-company as most of you already know), McKinsey, investment banks and consulting firms.
- Being on the Dean Office's radar. When you are on the dean's list, people in the dean's office and university career office tend to know you. After all, there are several hundreds of students in the faculty, and only a small handful are selected to be on the dean's list. Ego-boosting reasons aside, this can be useful for random situations, say when you want to get the inside scope on what's going on, an inside favor of sorts, or just generally having a new friend to talk to about university matters.
- Prestige and recognition. If all the special invitations and inclusions in exclusive events aren't already enough recognition, being on the dean's list is pretty much synonymous with intellectual smarts and success in university. As the board would put up the list of people on the dean's list online and also on school campus, students who read it generally know who you are, at least by name. People usually speak of dean's listers with a certain awe and respect.
While it was exciting being on the Dean's List back in university, I don't associate it as part of my identity today (such thoughts, if any, crumbled away right about the same time I discovered my purpose). It takes me by surprise nowadays when someone refers to this aspect of my past, because it's not something I think about or associate with anymore, though I am obviously happy and proud of my own achievement.
The one thing I do identify with myself the is my mission to help others achieve excellence and live their best life (my purpose). Anything else is just an external identity, a representation of certain values and beliefs. I don't connect much with labels but instead look at the message behind the labels, because ultimately labels are impermanent and will be shed away one day anyway.

Russia-China natural gas deal could put a crimp in B.C.'s LNG export plans
A looming gas deal between Russia and China could put a crimp in B.C. Premier Christy Clark's dreams of creating a liquefied natural gas (LNG) export industry on Canada's west coast.
Here's what Leslie Palti-Guzman, senior analyst, global energy and natural resources at New York-based Eurasia Group has to say about the increasingly warm relationship between Moscow and Beijing, and what it may mean for future LNG prices:
"After a decade of false starts, current geopolitical and market conditions appear at last to be aligned for Russia and China to conclude the much-anticipated Power of Siberia natural gas pipeline deal when Russian President Vladimir Putin visits Beijing next week," Palti-Guzman writes, in a detailed commentary issued Wednesday.
"As the Ukraine crisis threatens Russian access to western credit in the short term, while likely eroding Russia's European gas market share over the next decade, Moscow is keen to secure a major new gas export market in Asia, as well as to demonstrate to the West that it has energy consumer options. As a result, Moscow is likely to concede more ground to China on pricing than it has in past iterations of these negotiations. China, for its part, is eager to secure more gas to promote its ambitious environmental agenda of switching from coal to gas-fired power generation.
While the final contract price remains unknown, we expect Russia to offer some concession on price in exchange for a substantial prepayment from CNPC to help fund pipeline construction. The confluence of these factors leads us to assign a strong 80% probability to the conclusion of a deal. Eurasia Group sources in the Russian energy sector have confirmed the widely accepted market view that Russia's President Vladimir Putin is expected to sign the deal during an official state visit to China on May 20-21.
The deal as currently understood consists of a 30-year delivery contract between Gazprom and CNPC for 38 billion cubic metres (bcm) per year with the potential to expand pipeline capacity to 61 bcm per year. If signed now, construction would begin by year-end 2014 with a target first flow date of 2018, although possible lags in upstream development could introduce some delay to first deliveries.
The deal would be an important strategic gain at a time when the Ukraine crisis is fraying Russia's political and economic ties to the West. With Western attendance likely to be somewhat thinner this year at the upcoming St. Petersburg Economic Forum in June – Russia's premier investment event-clinching the deal ahead of the Forum would send an important signal to the West that Russia is not isolated by existing sanctions and has considerable opportunities for partnerships with Asian companies.
For China, beyond supporting the country's environmental policy agenda to reduce severe pollution, the deal provides Russian pipeline gas that is more competitively priced than Asian LNG imports (the price of landed Japanese LNG has been above $14.50 US since the beginning of the year) and equally as competitive, if not more so, than pipeline gas from Central Asia, which maintains an artificially low price due to Chinese subsidization.
Over the past decade, the deal has been consistently held up by disputes over pricing. However, the parties have reportedly agreed to a pricing formula that links the price to the Singapore crude benchmark. While there are still questions about the base price, market observers believe a price in the range of $10-11 US per million British thermal units (MmBtu) can be expected. This would put China's price on par with average European contract prices. While sources suggest Gazprom would require at least $12 US per MmBtu to break even accounting for pipeline construction, Russia is likely to offer a lower price in exchange for a financial prepayment.
At the broadest level, a deal would cement a key component of an economic relationship that both sides view as strategic. In particular, it would be a critical addition to a rapidly expanding relationship between Russia and CNPC. While not directly tied to the deal, CNPC is also mulling the option of expanding to 29% its current 20% stake in Yamal LNG, and Rosneft and CNPC are discussing joint development of fields in East Siberia. Both Novatek's Gennady Timchenko and Gazprom CEO Alexei Miller were in China in April as part of a Russian delegation that met with CNPC and companies are eager to gain access to Chinese capital. Russia will roughly double oil exports to China along the East Siberia Pacific Ocean (ESPO) pipeline by the end of the decade, and Putin has long held out the goal of increasing Asia's share of Russian energy exports to 30% by 2030.
Ongoing negotiations over the deal have underscored another critical question in Russian energy markets – that of industry liberalization and increased access to pipeline exports for non-Gazprom producers. Rosneft and Novatek have both been lobbying for pipeline access, and there is a considerable chance the government would eventually break Gazprom's pipeline export monopoly, at least for Asian-bound exports, and allow opportunities for Rosneft and other independents to access capacity along the pipeline.
For China the deal would help meet several goals. It would diversify CNPC's pricing exposure which has so far more LNG imports in its portfolio than pipeline imports and provide China's rust-belt North East market with a fresh cost advantage given the geographical proximity to the Russian border. Additionally, the deal may influence China's gas pricing reform that started last year. "
Palti-Guzman says there's a 20% chance the deal may still fall through, however.
"There are two factors that pose risks to either deal failure or continued delays. First, CNPC could push too hard on pricing, overestimating Moscow's sense of urgency to reach a major Asian export deal at this time. So far the EU has been relatively weak compared to the US on sanctioning Russia for its actions in Ukraine. For the time being, Europe remains too heavily dependent on Russian gas imports to scale-back dramatically its existing relationship, and Russia is expected to retain its current market share at least through the end of the decade, barring a serious escalation in sanctions. This reality will keep Russia from agreeing to a price below the above-mentioned range," she writes.
"Second, there is also the possibility that even the announcement of a deal turns out to be less than meets the eye. Lack of complete deal details now or upstream roadblocks down the road could conspire to introduce further setbacks in deal finalization or to push back the realistic implementation of a deal. After more than a decade of false-starts, this risk cannot be discounted."

Indiana Jones Adventure
As you stand along the banks of the Lost Delta Region, you gaze upward through the dense jungle foliage at the crumbling ruins of an ancient temple. Scholars have translated the crude runes carved above the entrance to read, "Beware the Eye of Mara!" Surrounded by packing crates, power generators and other elements that make up the archaeological expedition's base camp, you make your way slowly to the entrance of the foreboding temple. Music of the 1930s echoes eerily throughout the camp as an unearthly moaning - undoubtedly caused by the breeze passing through the structure's entrance - underlines your own pounding heart. The Temple of the Forbidden Eye is where countless tourists and adventurers have flocked to ever since word spread that those souls brave enough to find their way to the heart of the temple would have their choice of three treasures - earthly riches, eternal youth or keen knowledge of the future. However, some have never returned; according to the runes and legends of the local natives, anyone who dares to look into the eyes of the temple's guardian, Mara, are doomed never to see the light of day again. Such attention has drawn the world-famous archaeologist, Dr. Indiana Jones to the Temple of the Forbidden Eye. Unfortunately, Dr. Jones is one of those souls who has entered the temple, but has not yet returned. Close friends fear the worst, including entrepreneur Sallah, who has set up a tourist temple touring service with a small fleet of old military troop transport jeeps. Somewhere deep within the temple, Indiana Jones battles the forces of evil as time runs thin for anyone trying to escape the clutches of Mara. Do you dare enter the Temple of the Forbidden Eye yourself? Will you gain one of the incredible treasures and escape with Indy to revel in the next sunrise? Strap your mouse ears on, brave adventurers and hold on tight; it's going to be a bumpy ride into vast caverns, over lakes of bubbling lava and into the darkest recesses of the earth! With Indiana Jones at your side, it's sure to be the "E"-Ticket ride of your life! Trust him!

In what Bloomsbury's director of publicity Deb Shapiro calls "eerily fortuitous" timing, just as Cecilia Galante, the author of The Patron Saint of Butterflies (Apr.), was preparing for the last bookstore event on the first leg of her book tour, the news broke that a judge had ordered the removal of 400 children from a compound that housed the Fundamentalist Latter Day Saints, a polygamous religious cult, in Eldorado, Texas.
The Patron Saint of Butterflies, Galante's second novel, tells the story of two girls growing up in a religious commune, with one girl wanting to live out her life there, while the other wants only to escape.
The day after the story broke about the raid on the Eldorado commune, Galante—who herself grew up in a religious cult—spoke before a small group at The King's English in Salt Lake City. Attendees included two women who work with the Diversity Foundation, a nonprofit organization that works with boys and girls rescued from polygamist cults. The two women, who planned to travel to Texas the next day to work with the children rescued from FLDS, consulted with Galante on how best to help these children, whose experiences mirrored those both in Galante's own past as well as in her novel.

The story doesn't end there. The King's English and Bloomsbury are collaborating to donate copies of Patron Saint of Butterflies to the Diversity Foundation. According to Jenn Northington, event coordinator at The King's English, the Diversity Foundation is assessing its needs in the Colorado City area in southern Utah, where Warren Jeffs, leader of the FLDS leader, lived until recently, before deciding whether The King's English and Bloomsbury will donate books to local libraries or directly to teenage girls involved with religious cults.
As for Galante and The Patron Saint of Butterflies, which has 75,000 copies in hardcover in its initial print run, Shapiro describes the early buzz on it as good, with positive reviews in trade publications. Recent events, however, have only increased interest, and Shapiro is fielding calls from both national and regional media interested in interviewing Galante, as she prepares to visit San Francisco, Portland and Seattle, on the second leg of her tour.

Soccer News of Thursday, 15 November 2012
Source: GFA
Emmanuel Agyemang Badu expects a tough battle for FIFA's Puskas Award 2012 as his goal rivals other strikes from Lionel Messi and Neymar.
The goal by the Udinese midfielder for Ghana against Guinea at the 2012 Africa Cup of Nations is on the shortlist of ten goals for the award.
The annual celebration of great goals contains the best strikes from around the world, and was won last year by Brazilian superstar Neymar.
But Agyemang Badu is confident that his goal which has given Ghana a first-time presence on the shortlist can get the nod from fans who can vote for their favourite on the FIFA website.
"It came by surprise, I wasn't expecting anything of the sort. Let's just say the good work I have done so far is paying off. I am very happy and privileged for this opportunity. This will encourage me to push very hard in my carrier," Agyemang Badu said.
"I believe I have a chance but it all depends on the votes and the category of selection of the winner. Competing with such great footballers is not going to be easy because I watched the goal Lionel Messi scored against Brazil, I saw the one Radamel Falcao scored, I saw Neymar's goal as well and I think it will be difficult. But nothing is impossible so let's keep praying and see what the good Lord will do."
The award is named after Real Madrid and Hungarian legend Ferenc Puskás, who tormented defenders the world over during the 1950s.
The eventual winner being announced at the Ballon d'Or 2012 gala in January.

Kevin Love politely rejects reporter's post-game query: 'That wasn't a question'
The most important time for a reporter to come correct with his or her post-game questions is after a disappointing loss, as the frustration level runs high, patience is in short supply and words can be hard to come by.
The Timberwolves lost to the Clippers 109-107 in Los Angeles, missing three shots in the game's final three seconds that could have forced overtime. All-Star forward Kevin Love had the third and final opportunity, tapping up a putback attempt at the buzzer that just couldn't find its way over the rim.
That crazy final possession, which also included a Kevin Martin missed jumper and a missed putback from Nikola Pekovic, was naturally the subject of locker room discussion.
"You were able to box out there on that last sequence at least twice, getting two offensive rebounds," a reporter stated, stopping there to allow Love to respond.
Instead, five seconds of silence ensued, as Love's eyes flashed back and forth while his mouth didn't move.
"That wasn't a question," he said finally, after he turned to address the next reporter.
With more cameras in the locker room every year, small exchanges like that no longer fly under the radar, especially when stars are involved. While Russell Westbrook has been known to throw a tantrum or two, which can be grating to watch, Love's befuddled, matter-of-fact reaction actually twisted a tough ending into a humorous moment. Technically speaking, Love probably big-timed the reporter, but this was about as polite and non-confrontational as big-timings go.
Love finished with 23 points (on 8-for-19 shooting), 19 rebounds and seven assists in 39 minutes against the Clippers. Pekovic added 25 points (on 11-for-15 shooting) and 10 rebounds, while Martin scored a game-high 30 points (on 9-for-22 shooting).

Slice API: Inspiring Your Hacks with Some Exciting Use Cases
on July 15, 2015
In our last post, we introduced the Slice API and shared with you a bit of the journey that inspired us to offer a public API for developers to retrieve purchase history from their users who have opted in. We touched on a few of the use cases, but didn't go into much depth on what we see as the potential reach of our technology. So today, we're going to describe a few of the most compelling concepts that we've seen for our data integrations that we've seen at hackathons or mocked up internally and haven't had time to build…

I need a VC (is it a mistake?)
Augusto Marietti
on May 16, 2010
Peldi Guilizzoni giving a talk at Business of Software 2010 Conference Image credit: https://flic.kr/p/8GLvoK Most of the times, founders think that they need VC money [mistake]. Do you really need money? There are plenty of companies that are doing very well, without any VC money. Depends on what you wanna do, depends on what is your REAL vision of your company, etc. We see numerous companies happy during angel and VC rounds (including us), but who knows that this is the most valuable road on a long term? It's about 1 year that I wanna make a post in honor…

When Is A Curtain Call Required?
Carlos Delgado's non-curtain call after hitting his second home run of the game yesterday begs the question when is a player obligated to give a curtain call? The question is even tougher to answer in Delgado's case as the fans (including myself) have soured on him due to his slow start this year following a poor year last year. So the question must be restated as follows: Is a player obligated to give a curtain call to fans who booed him before the game even started (such as when the lineups were announced)?
I say no. A player is never obligated. A curtain call is nice and, as the fans pay the players salaries through ticket sales, is something we have come to expect. But there's no obligation there. And if a player isn't feeling it then why should he?

Handcrafted to customer specifications with a brush-finish or optional colour coatings and in sizes from 6 and up to 20 bottle positions, it comes with a variable 2-Climate-Zone Technology for changing proportions of red- and white wines. The cabinet is wide enough to dispense from large formats like Magnums, but you may also choose to keep a second row of bottles waiting for their turn at perfect serving temperature.
Cooling two climate zones and a large range of wines with just one performing compressor makes By the Glass® Standard one of the most economic professional wine serving systems available. What's more the cooling engine can be mounted separately from the dispense unit to win space and balance.

Yet By the Glass® Standard has set a worldwide standard for its performance and reliability.

As a result of the growth of undocumented workers, the annual earnings of documented workers — regardless of race – in Georgia in 2007 were $960 lower than in 2000
Peter Kirsanow's appointment to the US Commission for Civil Rights was fought tooth and nail by Democrats, yet he's one of the few members of the commission actually looking out for the interests of the black community when it comes to amnesty.
Several weeks ago, my colleagues on the U.S.Commission on Civil Rights, Abigail Thernstrom and Gail Heriot, and I sent a letter to President Obama and the members of the Congressional Black Caucus detailing the commission's findings on the impact of illegal immigration on low-skilled workers — particularly black males. Evidence adduced before the commission shows that illegal immigrants have displaced large numbers of black workers in industry sectors with historically high concentrations of black employees.
The evidence shows that immigration accounts for 40 percent of the 18-percentage-point decline in black employment rates over the last several decades. That's hundreds of thousands of blacks thrown out of work, hundreds of thousands who can't support families without taxpayer assistance.
Of course, the impact isn't limited to blacks, nor is it limited to employment rates. Illegal immigration also drives down wage rates. For example, an economist for the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta estimated that as a result of the growth of undocumented workers, the annual earnings of documented workers — regardless of race – in Georgia in 2007 were $960 lower than in 2000. In the hospitality industry the decline was $1,520.
Why should American workers suffer any decline in wages because of illegal immigration?
Because American workers 'work' for a living. That's the problem right there.

As the 25th annual NBAA's Schedulers & Dispatchers Conference kicks off in New Orleans on Tuesday, organizers anticipate setting a new record for exhibitors at approximately 500. This would eclipse the 425 airports, FBOs, fuel suppliers and other companies that displayed their services at last year's event, which was held in San Antonio.
Commonly referred to as simply "S&D," the confab is the industry's premier event for flight planners and flight department managers. This year's conference at the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center features a slate of 29 education sessions aimed at helping attendees in their roles supporting flight departments, ranging from "Personal Safety for the Traveling Professional," to "Get Ready for a New FBO Business Model."
This year's theme is "Take the Lead," and the conference's opening general session Wednesday morning will feature noted CEO, entrepreneur and leadership consultant Betty Shotton as keynote speaker.
For the fourth consecutive year, the show's organizing committee is inviting attendees to donate "gently used" business attire at registration, which will be presented through its "Pay it Forward" program to local area charities. Conference organizers expect to host more than 2,500 visitors at the event, which runs through Friday.
January 10, 2014 - 3:50am
Wonder if fatigue will be discussed with schedulers and dispatchers meeting or the new REM sleep wrist monitor like the new Basis for $199 at Amazon or www.mybasis.com ? I was a corporate pilot and hospital pilot but had no time and duty restrictions or when rules flying for NBAA members even though I had time and duty rules when flying as a Part 121 Captain. Typically an aircaft owner or CEO will want the company plane to be available 24/7 so pilots have to be available 24/7. Ever wonder why there are so many snooze rooms for corporate pilots in FBOs? Ever wonder why so many corporate pilots try to snooze every chance they get? Ever head of REM sleep that typically can't be obtained in a snooze room? I was a hopsital pilot and was fired for objecting to being ON CALL + ON DUTY for 24-32 hours straight with no rest. After last long 31 hours day, I was off for a few days and then fired but the other pilot flying with me went home for 4 hours and returned to fly more trips with onky 4 hours rest after a 31 hour period with no sleep. Hospital dispatcher was not a FAA licensed dispatcher so he did not know the FAA pilot rest rules. I recently talked to a newly hired hospital dispatcher who is a laid off USAirways FAA licensed dispatcher and he said he does not care about pilot rest rules when he dispatches hospital pilots because he is not required to use his FAA dispatcher license to dspatch hospital pilots even though hospital pilots are flying under Part 135 rules that require pilots meet FAA pilot rest rules. This hospital dispatcher is willing to encourage pilots to violate FAA pilot rest rules by dispatching pilots he knows do not meet FAA pilot rest rules. FAA and DOT Office of Inspector General were told of the pilot rest violations at hospital but took no action to stop pilot rest violations allegedly because hospital has political connections and lobbyists that can cause any local FAA inspector to be fired and lose their retirement, health insurance and salary so the local FAA office turns a Blind Eye to hospital pilot rest violations encouraged and enticed by hospital dispatchers.
