Product Information
K&N air filters - these are the original high-flow air filters. Since 1969 K&N Engineering has been designing, manufacturing, and enhancing high-flow air filters truck, car, SUV, and motorcycle enthusiast interested in maximizing horsepower, acceleration, and fuel-efficiency.
K&N not only has more applications than any other manufacturer of similar product, these guys invented the high-flow category and high-flow technology. How good is K&N? Well, they're the only air filter used at the Indianapolis 500®. The K&N FilterCharger® air filter is designed to achieve high, virtually unrestricted air flow while maintaining filtration levels critical to ensure long engine life. A K&N filter directly replaces the factory filter, making for a quick and easy install.
K&N air filters are constructed using 4 to 6 layers of cotton gauze, which is between two epoxy-coated aluminum wire screens. The cotton is treated with a formulated oil, which is designed to capture dust particles, allowing for a cleaner air to pass through to the engine. K&N filters can last up to 50,000 miles before needing to be cleaned – depending on driving conditions. Once cleaned, they go right back to work under the hood. This filter is going to last longer than the vehicle it's installed in, and K&N backs that statement with a million mile limited warranty.
If you don't have a K&N air filter in your vehicle, you're basically lighting money on fire and robbing your vehicle of power and efficiency. Not sure about you, but that's not something I'm interested in doing. Get you K&N air filter today, and reap the benefits…for a long time!
Engine Protection, Filtration. Anyone can flow more air. The trick is to flow more air safely. In our opinion we hit the sweet spot – an optimal blend of high air flow, filtration efficiency, durability and dust capacity. We take filtration seriously. K&N Air Filter media has been tested both in-house and by independent labs using the ISO5011 test developed by the Society of Automotive Engineers. In addition we test many of our filters both in and out of the OE air box ensuring proper fit and function. Our goal is to design filters with the maximum possible airflow achievable while providing guaranteed engine protection.
The Importance of Oil
A K&N Air Filter is made of 4 to 6 layers of cotton gauze sandwiched between two epoxy-coated aluminum wire screens. The cotton is treated with a specially formulated grade of oil causing tackiness throughout the cotton's microscopic strands. The nature of the cotton allows high volumes of airflow, and when combined with the tackiness of the oil creates a powerful filtering media that ensures engine protection. In contrast, most other media cannot maintain the same balance of airflow and filtration throughout the filter's life without sacrificing one or the other. With a K&N Air Filter, there is no sacrifice.
Testing – Laboratory and Real World
K&N uses independent laboratories to help ensure that our products meet or exceed your high performance and high filtration demands. Better yet, we conduct our own testing at our own state-of-the-art in-house testing laboratory. For more information on K&N air filters and testing go to the K&N Technical Learning Center area. K&N's dedication to providing a first-class air filter can also be seen outside the testing laboratory. Consider that K&N has sold more than 20 million air filters since 1969. One such filter was put in the air box of a three-quarter ton Chevy pickup and driven more than one million miles by Carl Judice of New Iberia, Louisiana. Carl points out that he has never rebuilt the engine, nor removed the cylinder head from his trusty pickup truck. Real world testing and customer satisfaction doesn't get any better than that.
Never Replace Your Air Filter Again
Handmade in the USA and in the United Kingdom using only the finest materials, K&N OE Replacement Air Filters are washable and reusable. Regardless of what you've heard, it's almost impossible to wash your K&N Air Filter too much. Inside our testing laboratory, we have washed and re-oiled one K&N Air Filter more than 100 times and it still performs up to specification. Depending on your driving conditions, we recommend cleaning your air filter every 50,000 miles. To clean and re-oil, purchase our filter Recharger® service kit and follow the easy instructions.
Fuel Economy
Fuel economy testing and mileage claims are a tricky business. Just ask the EPA, whose website states, "EPA's fuel economy estimates are designed to allow consumers to comparison shop. Your fuel economy will almost certainly vary from EPA's fuel economy rating. This is based on a number of factors, such as weather, road conditions, you're driving and maintenance habits, and your use of air conditioning." Under Gas Mileage Tips they go on to say, "Replacing a clogged air filter can significantly improve your car's mileage". A lot of exaggerated claims are made in the marketplace by products claiming to improve gas mileage. K&N makes no general fuel economy claims, however we encourage you to try our air filter for yourself. Keeping air filter restriction as low as possible can be an important tool, among others, for maintaining high mileage.
K&N Million Mile Limited Warranty® and Consumer Protection Pledge
K&N warrants its street vehicle OE Replacement Air Filters for one million miles. When used properly and found to be defective, return your filter and the receipt from purchase and K&N will replace it free of charge. K&N's Consumer Protection Plan goes one step further than its Million Mile Warranty. The performance aftermarket has, at times, been plagued by car manufacturers and automotive dealers that may attempt to discourage you from customizing your vehicle. They prefer you buy OE parts and not modify your car or truck and have even been known to void their own manufacturer's warranty due to vehicle modification. That sounds un-American to us, which is why K&N and the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act (more information here) protect consumers from such denied warranty claims. When you buy an OE replacement K&N High-Flow Air Filter or High-Flow Air Intake System you can be confident your vehicle's warranty will remain in effect. If you experience a difficult dealership, K&N will resolve the issue so you won't have to. The following summarizes the K&N Consumer Protection Pledge:
K&N pledges to our customers that they will not be taken advantage of and charged for a repair due to a dealership warranty denial blamed on the presence of a K&N product.
K&N direct fit stock replacement air filters are a direct replacement of the factory air filter. K&N air filters can be installed in a matter of minutes, and those precious minutes will pay off indefinitely. If you have any questions, give us a call at 877-216-5446.

Rangers stun A's with ninth-inning rally
Choice delivers two-out, go-ahead single against former team
OAKLAND -- Even Rangers manager Ron Washington -- ever the eternal optimist -- had to admit this was an amazing victory.
"That's an amazing group of guys we have in that clubhouse," Washington said. "All the things we're going through, they don't let it affect them."
Besides all the players on the disabled list, the Rangers had to start this game without outfielder Shin-Soo Choo because of his sprained left ankle. They lost Kevin Kouzmanoff, their hottest hitter, midway through the fourth inning with tightness in his back. Reliever Pedro Figueroa went down in the eighth with an unidentified elbow injury.
Through all of that, plus a major miscommunication on a bunt play that almost killed their game-winning rally, the Rangers were still able to score two runs in the top of the ninth and stun the Athletics with a 5-4 victory on Tuesday night at O.co Coliseum.
"Yeah, that was a good one," said Mitch Moreland, who started the ninth-inning rally with a pinch-hit double. "I felt like we were kind of meant to win that one. It just worked out for us tonight. It was a good one. It was a big one."
The Rangers have now won eight of their last 10 games. This is the third time this season the Rangers have won when trailing after eight innings and the first time on the road.
"I think win is a good word for that one," said infielder Josh Wilson, who tied the game in the ninth with a double and then scored the go-ahead run on Michael Choice's single. "Beating that team, the A's are a real good team. To get a win, all wins are big but those ones can hurt when you have a lead. We've been on the other side of that. Against a division rival, it's great to get a win like that."
The Rangers have won the first two games of this series, marking the first time this season the Athletics have lost two in a row.
"It was a fun crazy game," shortstop Elvis Andrus said. "Everything seemed to happen, I'm just glad we won."
The Rangers also won with rookie Nick Martinez making his second Major League start. Martinez allowed four runs, two earned, in five innings of work. He was given a 2-0 lead in the top of the first but allowed two in the bottom of the inning. The Athletics then loaded the bases with one out in the second but Martinez got Jed Lowrie on a fly to center and Leonys Martin threw out John Jaso trying to score for an inning-ending double play.
"Not an ideal way to start the game but things happen," Martinez said. "A great play by Leonys. It gave me a jolt. Great throw, great play. It just gave me more motivation to keep battling."
The Rangers were able to get the lead back in the top of the third after singles by Alex Rios and Prince Fielder put runners at the corners. Kouzmanoff grounded into a double play to get the run home but that was his last at-bat as he left the game in the middle of the fourth. Luis Sardinas had to play second base and Wilson moved over to third.
Wilson ended up making a key error in the fourth inning that helped lead to two unearned runs off Martinez and giving Athletics a 4-3 lead. But the Rangers were able to keep it close through the combination of Martinez plus the relief work of Aaron Poreda, Shawn Tolleson and Alexi Ogando. They combined to keep it a one-run game until the ninth.
Moreland led off the ninth with a double to right off of Oakland reliever Luke Gregerson and was sacrificed to third by Robinson Chirinos. That brought up Martin, who thought the squeeze was on and dropped a bunt on the second pitch. The only problem was Moreland, never seeing a squeeze sign, didn't break with the pitch and was thrown out easily by Gregerson at home plate.
"I was probably too aggressive trying to score," Moreland said, "From my angle, I thought the ball was up the first-base line so I wanted to take a chance of getting in there."
"Just miscommunication," Washington said. "It happens. We won the ballgame."
Martin was safe at first and then stole second. Wilson brought him home with a double to left.
"I had a feeling he would get a base hit," Washington said. "Thinking double? No. But I had a feeling he would get a base hit. That's what you're supposed to feel. That's what we're supposed to do."
That brought up Choice, who was batting in the leadoff spot because Choo was unavailable. Facing his former team, Choice put the Rangers ahead by bouncing a single up the middle.
"To be able to come through in that situation was huge," Choice said. "We've got a lot of fighters on this team. You just have to stay with it, get up there and make something happen."
Joakim Soria retired the side in order in the ninth to finish off an amazing night and earn his fifth save.
"Great game … a lot of fun," Martinez said. "Guys coming up big with clutch hits, I had a blast."

This is a follow-up to my post yesterday, which pled for multi-causality in explaining emancipation in the American Civil War. To borrow a phrase from the U.S. Congress, I would like to "revise and extend" my original blog post. This revision and extension is largely the result of feedback I received. The gist of the feedback boiled down to two points. First, that I was not being fair to Gary Gallagher by suggesting he was backing off partly his thesis in The Union War (2011). Essentially, that Gallagher always had believed in multi-causality for emancipation, just that he contended the Union Army was the single most important agent of freedom for the slaves. Second, the feedback was critical of my comment that "the chain of cause and effect is sufficiently complex that it really is not useful trying to decide who or what was most important in emancipation." Essentially, that by refusing to judge the relative weight of the causes of emancipation, I was abandoning scholarship's essence: analysis.
The criticism certainly has a point, but only up to a point. Still, I am grateful for it, for making me sharpen my argument. That is, what is it exactly about books like The Union War that is troubling? Certainly, it is not that Gary Gallagher denies multi-causality for emancipation in the Civil War. What troubles me is that he is suggesting one cause of emancipation is more important than all the others.
To be fair to Gallagher, he is merely the latest in a long line of scholars asking the question, "Who freed the slaves?" For a long time, scholars would give that credit to Abraham Lincoln (a notion still popular among the public). Then with rise of social history, other scholars began to emphasize the role of the slaves in their own liberation, the so-called "self-emancipation" thesis. To be fair to my mentor, Ira Berlin, and his colleagues at the Freedmen and Southern Society Project–who have been incorrectly but understandably identified with this thesis–they believed and still believe in multi-causality in emancipation. Other scholars, most notably James McPherson, tried to suggest they believed the slaves liberated themselves but Berlin and the current head of Freedmen of Southern Society Project, Leslie Rowland, while emphasizing the slaves' importance in ending slavery (natural given the nature of their documentary editing project), have always stated the slaves' activities were one cause of many factors in emancipation and never claimed it was the most important. For true believers in self-emancipation, one must look to activist scholars like Sterling Stuckey, eager to find black nationalism emerging out of slavery and its destruction.
So I suppose what I am getting at here is that scholars need to find a new question to guide exploration of the causes of emancipation. "Who freed the slaves?" has certainly identified a variety of important causes of emancipation in the American Civil War, and how a war to defend slavery ultimately resulted in its end. But the question also encourages scholars to suggest incorrectly one cause as the most important, whether it be Abraham Lincoln, the Union Army, the slaves, etc.
There is not a most important cause of emancipation because all the causes mentioned above are inseparably intertwined. For example, does Fortress Monroe become a refuge for slaves in May 1861, setting a much followed precedent, because Benjamin Butler gave sanctuary to three slaves that escaped from their rebel owners or does it happen because the three slaves sought the sanctuary in the first place putting Butler on the spot? It is the old chicken or the egg question. Which comes first? Neither really, because these actions are so intertwined as to become inseparable.
So does this mean that scholars should not analyze the relative importance of Civil War causes? There the commentators have an important point. It is certainly worth doing so, as long as one cause is not put on a pedestal as the most important cause. For the sake of advancing discussion, it would be worthwhile to suggest there are two groups of emancipation causes: primary and secondary. Primary causes are ones that if they had not existed, emancipation likely would not have occurred during the Civil War. Among these are Lincoln's support, the slaves making an issue of themselves, and the Union Army as an institution deliberately and inadvertently undermining slavery. In terms of the secondary causes, one might identify such factors as secession, popular opinion within the United States, and international opinion. No doubt there are other causes that could be added here, or shifted back and forth across the two categories.
So, yes, let's analyze the causes of emancipation in the Civil War. After all, that is what scholars do. But let us stop privileging one factor as more important than the rest when the situation was clearly more complex and interesting than that.

Maine tells Pan Am Railways to report its oil transports, pay fees
AUGUSTA, Maine (AP) � The Department of Environmental Protection is telling a Massachusetts-based railroad to reports it oil transports across Maine and pay the associated fees.
DEP spokesman Jessamine Logan says the department sent a notice of violation to Pan Am Railways asking it to report the oil transports and pay the fees as required by law for April and May, or explain why it isn't doing so. The company has until Aug. 6 to respond.
A Pan Am spokeswoman didn't immediately return a call for comment.
Pan Am Railways stopped filing its oil transport reports to the DEP beginning with its April report.
From January through March, the railroad carried 47.9 million gallons across Maine and paid more than $34,000 in fees that go to the state's oil spill cleanup fund.

How can I set up a "hot standby" Citadel server?
One of the most frequently asked questions about Citadel's room replication service is, "Can Citadel's replication functions sync all of the mailboxes to a standby server?" The answer to that question is NO. That is not what the replication service is for.
There are several good ways of setting up a "hot standby" server. Citadel's replication service is NOT one of them. It simply is not that technology's purpose.
The easiest way to have a standby backup Citadel is to build two of them and simply rsync your data directory to the backup server periodically. If you have an Easy Install system it's /usr/local/citadel; if you're using the debian packages its /var/lib/citadel and /etc/citadel. You don't have to sync WebCit because it doesn't store any data. This is an excellent method; the backup system can be brought online at a moment's notice, the replication can be performed at any interval you are comfortable with (nightly, hourly, etc.) and there is NO impact on your production system.
Another method is to build a high availability Linux cluster and put Citadel on a DRBD partition. Simply fire up Citadel on whichever node is the active one, and all changes will be replicated to the other node in real time.
Supporting either of these is outside of the scope of Citadel support, but we know from user experience that they both work quite well.

Pat Tillman, the Arizona Cardinals standout defensive back who forsook a $3 million contract to enlist in the Army in 2002, and who was killed by friendly fire in an operation in Afghanistan, returns to the football field as a special offering within Madden NFL 13's Ultimate Team mode. Tillman's appearance in the game is supported by the foundation established in his name.
Tillman played for the Arizona Cardinals from 1998 to 2001, appearing on the roster of Madden NFL and other video games licensed by the NFL Players Association in those years. His last video game appearance, though not by name, was on an all-time Arizona State roster in NCAA Football 2005, alongside Cardinals teammate and good friend Jake Plummer.
Tillman is easy to acquire: 40 Madden coins, which you can get by simply selling back pretty much any player in your reserve roster, gives you an 85-rated Tillman at strong safety (go to the Card Deals menu in Ultimate Team). A 99-rated Tillman is also available in Legendary packs, but it's not known how many of those cards will be inserted into them.
Tillman's controversial death, the Army's dishonest announcement and cover-up of it, the incident's apparent use as a propaganda tool, and Tillman's posthumous criticisms of the war have made him a complicated figure to a society that loosely distributes a "hero" label to any who serve. That falls well short of honoring a man whose actions always demonstrated the courage of his convictions, and who fulfilled the commitments he made, the real reasons for which Pat Tillman remains widely admired.

Frozen treasure
Some 860 000 seed samples from around the globe are held in storage in Norway's Svalbard archipelago – to preserve the diversity of our food sources.
Whatever happens, our food crops will survive! Safely out of reach of the effects of war and natural disasters, seed back-up samples from the world's biggest gene banks are stored in airtight foil packages inside sealed boxes in the Svalbard Global Seed Vault on Spitsbergen. Wheat from the Middle East, barley from Tajikistan, amaranth from Ecuador – a broad variety of seeds is kept nicely chilled at minus 18 degrees Celsius. The seeds of some plant species will remain fertile at this temperature for many thousands of years.

In the tub with 007
Ian Fleming once bathed here: The GoldenEye estate in Oracabessa Bay, Jamaica, actually belonged to the British author. In fact, the inventor of James Bond (1908–1964) wrote 14 of his Agent 007 novels here, surrounded by tropical rainforest and a saltwater lagoon. Today, it's a luxurious resort, best reached from Ian Fleming Airport just eight minutes away.

ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny
Jump to navigation Jump to search
Reportedly coined by zoologist Ernst Haeckel (1834-1919).
ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny
- (biology, social sciences, art, philosophy) The physical, cultural, moral, or intellectual development of each individual passes through stages similar to the developmental stages of that individual's species, society, or civilization. Not taken literally since the late 19th century.
- 1905, J. A. Harris, "The Importance of Investigations of Seedling Stages," Science, New Series, vol. 22, no. 554, p. 186:
- With reference to seedling stages the statement that ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny must be made with great reserve.
- 1961, M. E. Wolfgang, "Pioneers in Criminology: Cesare Lombroso (1835-1909)," The Journal of Criminal Law, Criminology, and Police Science, vol. 52, no. 4, p. 367:
- Haeckel maintained that ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny, and this idea was incorporated by Lombroso into his parallelism between the criminal and the child.
- 2002, B. S. Jackson, "Models in Legal History: The Case of Biblical Law," Journal of Law and Religion, vol. 18, no. 1, p. 11:
- For even if we accept that "ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny," those responsible for the drafting of ancient legal documents were not children, and are hardly to be endowed with some form of infantile mentality.

Paula Berberian, Creative Director for WallPops was recently featured in a Wall Street Journal Home & Digital article about the growing popularity of owls in kids decor. Read an excerpt from the article below, and click here to see the whole feature!
Nurseries and kids' rooms are wising up.
A onetime star of '70s crafting kits and macramé wall hangings has returned as the "it" critter for the baby-to-preschool set. Perched on crib bedding, bibs, lunch bags and backpacks, the owl is a decorative force with staying power, manufacturers and retailers say.
Parents of young children are welcoming the break from pinks, princesses and plastic. "The kids' rooms now are more of an extension of the rest of the house," says Paula Berberian, creative director for WallPops, a line of removable peel-and-stick wall art popular for kids' rooms. When entering that space, "you're not assaulted by a totally different look and feel," she says.
This year, two owls feature prominently in WallPops' $31 Hoot and Hangout bedroom wall-art kit, which also includes a 51-inch-tall tree. "That immediately rose to one of our best-sellers," says Ms. Berberian. The $15 Owl Silhouettes collection comprises four 13-by-13-inch owls, two "sleepy" and two "wide awake."
"Anything we do with owls is really popular," Ms. Berberian says. WallPops is a brand of Brewster Home Fashions, of Randolph, Mass…. click here to read the whole feature on the Wall Street Journal On-line site.

What�s the No. 2 cause of death in the 10-to-24 and 12-to-18 age groups? It�s suicide, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
The Jason Foundation, which promotes awareness of youth suicide, says more people in those age groups kill themselves than die of cancer, heart disease, AIDS, birth defect, stroke, pneumonia, flu and chronic lung disease combined.
The CDC says teenagers who are bullied online are three times more likely to make suicide attempts that require medical treatment.
The i-SAFE Foundation, which promotes online safety, says more than half of adolescents and teens have been bullied online (more than a quarter of them repeatedly), a third have been threatened and more than half the victims suffer in silence without telling their parents. It happens everywhere. No community is immune. In our digital world people are more connected than ever before. Our children are the same way.
That should be enough to convince any skeptic that this is a problem, without even mentioning what happened earlier this month in a Florida community.
Rebecca Ann Sedwick, 12, climbed a tower at an abandoned cement plant in Lakeland, Fla. and jumped to her death.
Cyberbullies apparently had made her life a living hell for more than a year, terrorizing her with messages urging her, among other things, to kill herself.
The bullying had to do with a �boyfriend issue,� according to authorities, who said Rebecca�s diaries in which she chronicled her ordeal �would break your heart.� It also didn�t stop when she changed schools or was home schooled (one can�t escape the Internet these days).
We could shake our heads sadly and say, �Such a tragic waste,� if this was just an isolated incident.
It�s not. Do a search for �cyberbullying suicides� and you�ll find equally tragic stories, many of them quite recent.
Kids being mean and nasty to each other at school is nothing new. Neither are such things as �boyfriend issues� becoming life-and-death matters to those whose youth and lack of life experiences limit their world view to the next 30 seconds (if that long).
What�s changed is the technology that allows bullies to commit their cruelty from afar, to commit it as cowards who don�t have to look their victims in the eye, to commit it without leaving physical marks. To do so anywhere at any time if a computer or smartphone is available.
We�re not going to tell parents not to buy their kids electronic gadgets that can get online. We see enough kindergartners toting iPads to know that�s a losing battle.
We�ll tell them to monitor what their kids are doing with that technology � a child in middle school should have no expectation of privacy online � and step in if they see a situation like this, whether it�s someone bullying or being bullied.
We�ll also tell them to keep a closer eye on their kids. Rebecca�s mother had no idea of the scale of the bullying, and said her daughter displayed �a perfect, happy face.� Getting kids, especially as they�re getting older, to talk to their folks is a different battle, but a truly engaged parent should see signs that something�s not right.
Twelve-year-olds shouldn�t be jumping off buildings. Be proactive to keep it from happening.

Carlo Zanni, Self Portrait With Dog, (2008)
Carlo Zanni's "Self Portrait with Dog" (2008) and "Self Portrait with Friends" (2012) both include the artist captured in Google Street View. Recently I emailed the Zanni about these projects:
Could you tell me a little bit about the Google Street View pictures "Self Portrait with Dog" (2008) and "Self Portrait with Friends" (2012)?
They are part of an exploration around portraiture I began in 2000 designing desktop icons, programming cookies, and making google images generated drawings.
In either cases, it's me on the street in Milan being shot by the Google Car. The first one back in 2008, the second one in 2012.
In "Self-Portrait With Dog," I'm walking my dog and I choose that frame among others from the street view sequence (that you can still browse from the project's homepage) because of its composition. It is also a classic theme in portraiture and it has a link to a famous work by futurist painter Giacomo Balla: "Dynamism of a Dog on a Leash", 1912. Both explore the idea of time and space, with mine having strong ties with very urgent themes like public exposure, privacy and control.
In "Self-Portrait With Friends (i fannulloni)" I've been shot with two pals while lying around like slackers. "i fannulloni" — that is the wall writing on the left of the picture — means slackers. You might find an assonance with "I Vitelloni" by Federico Fellini. Even in this case, I chose this frame for its composition values and when shown in gray scale as it has to be, its "neo realistic" side pops up.
Naming these works "self portraits", and not "portraits made by Google" — like suggested by curator Pau Waelder — ironically plays with the idea that I had a ...

One of my most popular posts is the Long Distance Hug idea I posted almost 2 years ago. It has been awesome seeing all the ways people are using this idea, from mailing to family on the other side of the world to sending to our troops.
At the time, C was 2 and J was not quite 1. I thought I would have the girls, plus L (nearly 10 months old) re-create the craft to compare them, size wise, to the ones they made 2 years ago. One set of grandparents happen to live down the road still have theirs on display!
It was fun to compare just how much they have grown in the 2 years. And since J is the now same age C was when she made hers, it was neat to show her that her big sister was once her size.
Have you made a Long Distance Hug? I would love to hear about it!

hazard resulting in an event causing significant physical damage, destruction or death
(Redirected from Disasters)
A disaster is a natural or man-made (or technological) hazard resulting in an event of substantial extent causing significant physical damage or destruction, loss of life, or drastic change to the environment. A disaster can be ostensively defined as any tragic event stemming from events such as earthquakes, floods, catastrophic accidents, fires, or explosions. It is a phenomenon that can cause damage to life, property and destroy the economic, social and cultural life of people.
- There's no disaster that can't become a blessing, and no blessing that can't become a disaster.
- Richard Bach, Jonathan Livingston Seagull (1970).
- The formula for achieving a successful relationship: You should treat all disasters as if they were trivialities but never treat a triviality as if it were a disaster.
- Quentin Crisp, Manners from Heaven: A Divine Guide to Good Behaviour (1984), chapter 7.
- The truth is, we like to talk over our disasters, because they are ours ; and others like to listen, because they are not theirs.
- Letitia Elizabeth Landon, Francesca Carrara (1834), Vol. III, Chapter 34
- Disaster is a natural part of my evolution," Tyler whispered, "toward tragedy and dissolution."
- Chuck Palahniuk, Fight Club (1996), p. 101.
- Dread of disaster makes everybody act in the very way that increases the disaster.
- Bertrand Russell, New Hopes for a Changing World (1951), p. 132-133.

KDE at LinuxWorld London Report
Last week saw the first LinuxWorld Conference & Expo franchise in London. Representing the KDE project were Jonathan Riddell (Umbrello), Jeff Snyder (Kompare), Richard Smith (Kopete), George Wright (KLatin), Martijn Dekkers, Ben Lamb and David Pashley (on the Debian stand).
We ran a joint stall with the GNOMEs which gave us one of the biggest spaces in the .org village and was used to jointly promote freedesktop.org and X.org. Only one GNOME turned up so we spread ourselves, and the excellent collection of machines that had been lent to us, along the stall.
The most popular demonstration of KDE 3.3 was Kontact. A lot of people were interested in how well it could talk to Exchange. X.org 6.8 impressed everyone with its composite extension featuring transparent windows and nice shadows. XComposite runs slowly but the FreeNX demonstration showing a remote X desktop was as fast as it could be, even connecting to a server in Germany over a busy wifi link. The FreeNX server is likely to become a freedesktop.org project soon; the knx client is in kdenonbeta but badly needs developers to work on it and integrating it with KDE's existing remote desktop application. We also demonstrated KOffice and were pleased to meet a number of satisfied users and many more interested in the database frontend Kexi.
We were proud to demonstrate Scribus DTP. The Scribus developers say they have considered making Scribus a part of KDE but some of their users did not want the depencies so it remains pure Qt.
There were a number of people interested in KDE's lockdown framework Kiosk. We discussed a large KDE deployment taking place this week which makes heavy use of it, demonstrating the power and flexibility of KDE & Kiosk in the enterprise environment.
Several people asked how to start developing for KDE, we pointed them towards the KDE Quality teams and the Junior Jobs in Bugzilla.
One of the highlights of the expo was the presence of KDE founder Matthias Ettrich who attended as a speaker to give a talk on "Qt: the engine for professional desktop applications on Linux and beyond". Matthias thinks that KDE should have positions elected to give developers official titles (this should mean he has fewer requests to do talks). He is also concerned about the clutter in KDE, especially in Konqueror.
The killer feature in attracting punters to our stand was the new animation from Basse Konqi And The Magical Rope Of Curiosity which looks excellent on a 20" dual screen monitor.
This was an excellent show not least because of the number of happy KDE users. Our thanks go to drochaid for printing the flyers, Ben and Martijn for lending us computers and Brian for organising the .org village.
Do we need elections ?
Elections take a lot of time and energy in the Debian project and in the end, it is not more democratic or open than KDE.
But I agree with Matthias that people outside KDE may have difficulties understanding who are the important people in KDE. We have already official representatives to give outside people an entry point in the KDE world. Maybe, we should have a way to give a nice title (like KDE lead engineer) to the most productive and active developers so people would feel that the talk is not made by a nobody but by an important chap.
By Charles de Miramon at Thu, 2004/10/14 - 5:00am
Re: Do we need elections ?
Why would you need elections for such positions? Wouldn't it be much easier to assign official 'heads' for subprojects within KDE, like "Konqueror Project Leader", "Quanta Project Leader" and such. If such titles are listed at a somewhat official manner of the site, journalists and the like can contact those people for interviews. While there may be some cases where it's not directly certain, I think these titles could be given without going through the hassle of elections.

Re: Do we need elections ?
Excellent idea, really superb..... but: who confers these titles? Who takes them away?
OK we could have a board of alpha men inside KDE who are trusted by eveyone with the power to give and take these titles. But who appoints these alpha men? And who impeaches them?

Who currently appoints the 'release dude'?
By AC at Thu, 2004/10/14 - 5:00am
Re: Do we need elections ?
Er... Don't most applications and libs already have a maintainer? A position that not only carries with it the certainty of fame, respect, and remuneration beyond ones wildest dreams, but also signifies the trust which has been invested into that superior class of indivduals by the powers that be. Their moral stature is such that only through gross dereliction of duty or voluntary abdication they can be evicted from their lofty pedestal. If one were to number the rank and file of KDE developers in the Greek alphabet, then it is surely they who will get the distinction of being furthest removed from those carrying the opprobrious stigma of being counted among those worthy of not more than an omega.

The Scream fetches record price at auction
One of the art world's most recognisable images - Edvard Munch's The Scream has been sold for a record $US119,922,500 ($A116.59 million) at auction in New York City.
The 1895 artwork - a modern symbol of human anxiety - was sold at Sotheby's. The price includes the buyer's premium.
The image of a man holding his head and screaming under a streaked, blood-red sky is one of four versions by the Norwegian expressionist painter. The auctioned piece at Sotheby's is the only one left in private hands.
The previous record for an artwork sold at auction was $106.5 million for Picasso's Nude, Green Leaves, and Bust, sold by Christie's in 2010.
The image has become part of pop culture, "used by everyone from Warhol to Hollywood to cartoons to teacups and T-shirts," said Michael Frahm of the London-based art advisory service firm Frahm Ltd.
"Together with the Mona Lisa, it's the most famous and recognised image in art history," he said.
Sotheby's said its pastel-on-board version of The Scream was the most colourful and vibrant of the four and the only version whose frame was hand-painted by the artist to include a poem detailing the work's inspiration.
In the poem, Munch described himself "shivering with anxiety" and said he felt "the great scream in nature".
Norwegian businessman Petter Olsen, whose father was a friend and patron of the artist, said he sold the piece because he felt "the moment has come to offer the rest of the world the chance to own and appreciate this remarkable work".
Proceeds from the sale will go toward the establishment of a new museum, art centre and hotel in Hvitsten, Norway, where Olsen's father and Munch were neighbours.
The director of the National Museum in Oslo, Audun Eckhoff, says Norwegian authorities approved the Munch sale since the other versions of the composition are in Norwegian museums. One version is owned by the National Museum and two others by the Munch Museum, also in Oslo.
Sotheby's said a total of eight works have sold for $80 million or more at auction.
Only two other works besides Picasso's Nude, Green Leaves, and Bust have sold for more than $100 million at auction. Those are Picasso's Boy With a Pipe (The Young Apprentice) for $104.1 million in 2004 and Alberto Giacometti's Walking Man I for $104.3 million in 2010.

GCH CH Mt View's Ripsnorter Silver Charm
(Photo by Kayal Bertagnolli courtesy of Best In Show Daily)
Nashville is known for its country music stars, but nearby Franklin TN has drawn several canine stars to its four day Country Music Cluster. We told you about the Nashville Kennel Club'sThursday opener. Friday it was the Tullahoma Kennel Club of Tennessee's turn to host.
GCH CH Lightning Strike El Xargall
Michele Billings had the Friday's final and the company of the German Wirehaired Pointer, GCH CH Mt View's Ripsnorter Silver Charm, the 15" Beagle, GCH CH Torquay Be Nice To Me, the Boxer, CH Hi Tech The King of Sherry Shoot Jp, the Welsh Terrier, GCH CH Shaireab Bayleigh Maid of Honor, the Papillon, Wildfire Uncensored, the Tibetan Spaniel, GCH CH Kan Sing's Tenzin, and the Briard, GCH CH Lightning Strike El Xargall.
Her BIS was the GWP, Oakley, and her RBIS was the Briard, Thunder. Oakley was 2012's Number One Dog All Breeds and is the top winning German Wirehaired Pointer of all time with 88 career Bests. So far this year Oakley and handler Phil Booth have collected eight BIS in 15 final appearances, including last month's Westminster Kennel Club final.

Facebook is ranked as the top mobile app of 2012, just beating out Google Maps to take the top spot, according to a leading digital data analytics firm.
Facebook, with more than 85 million unique visitors, beat out Google Maps which had almost 76 million visitors, according to comScore, a Reston, Va.-based company. However, despite not having the top spot, Google seems as if it's doing all right. We know that No. 3 on the list was Google Play, No. 4 was Google Search, Gmail was No. 5 and No. 6 was YouTube -- that's nearly 300 million unique visitors flocking to Google apps.
But how did Google Maps not get top billing on the list? Well, comScore says the reason is based on timing. When the new iOS 6 came without Google Maps and only Apple Maps in October, Google's app usage went down. As Google Maps came to the iOS in December, its numbers have steadily climbed, according to Andrew Lipsman of comScore.
We reported on the Google Maps app coming to iOS in December, when Google claimed 10 million downloads in the first 48 hours of its release, showing that iOS users wanted the mapping app and weren't happy with Apple's less-than-accurate map offering. This means that Google Maps' numbers for 2013 may be much higher.

September 2008
Mitsubishi knows the name Ralliart isn't spoken with much reverence among American gasoline punks. That should change. Mitsubishi has watched Subaru ring up healthy sales with the mid-grade WRX, which neatly slots between the 87-octane Impreza and the high-test STI.
Now the Lancer Ralliart is being sent in to bridge the same wide chasm separating the $18,915, 168-hp Lancer GTS from the $33,615, 291-hp Evolution GSR. This time it's not just a paint-and-trim poseur. Lancer Ralliart retail prices should start at $27,000, which buys a 237-hp turbo 2.0-liter, all-wheel drive, and a twin-clutch automated manual six-speed, the only transmission available.
It trucks to 60 mph in a spirited 5.5 seconds, quicker by 0.3 than our last WRX wagon. The Ralliart also carves a road pleasantly with well-weighted steering, stout brakes, and a paddle-shifted transmission with quick, snag-free gear changes. The Ralliart's main limitations are body roll, a trade-off for tolerable ride, and overwhelmed 215/45 Yokohama rubber mounted on 18-inch rims. They squeal early and often, and the grip too quickly melts into understeer. Note the unspectacular 0.80-g skidpad performance and 184-foot stopping distance.
Is the Ralliart a cut-price Evo? Actually, it's more of a Lancer in lipstick. Instead of forged aluminum arms, the Ralliart has an all-steel suspension, same as the Lancer's, though with Ralliart-tuned shocks. The Ralliart also lacks the bulging fenders that make the Evolution a wide-body special. There's no stiffening X-brace behind the rear seats—as there is in the Evo—so the Ralliart's rear seats split 60/40 and fold, as they do in the Lancer.
The "4B11" turbo 2.0-liter four has a smaller single-scroll turbo compared with the Evo's twin-scroll windmill, and the all-wheel-drive system is simpler. Instead of the computer controlled "Super All-Wheel Control" on the Evo, which includes the "Active Yaw Control" rear differential, the Ralliart has "All Wheel Control," a hand-me-down from the 2005–07 Evolution IX with a computer-operated center clutch pack and mechanical limited-slip differentials front and rear.
With the WRX, you get options: sedan or wagon, manual or auto. In the Ralliart, you just get one pretty good car.

Just rechecked the sort of players who were topping the run scorers, batting averages, wicket takers, etc, lists in the ICL and there are a few strong domestic performers in there who may be in line for future India colours.
- Thiru Kumaran: Impressed with medium pace at the death.
- Ganapathi Vignesh: Scored a lot of runs at the top of the order in the ICL 20s and was top wicket taker in the ICL 50s.
- Dheeraj Jadhav: Scored a fair few runs and actually has a brilliant domestic record.
- Bipul Sharma: Didn't see him play, myself, but another with a superb domestic record
- Ali Murtaza: The most impressive bowler of the ICL. Has a slightly suspect action but kept tremendously low economy rates throughout the ICL 20s and 50s.
- Monish Mishra: Great batsman to watch, remember watching him score a century. Was always in the runs in the ICL.
- Abhishek Jhunjhunwala: A lot of hype around him and he did score a century in his ICL 50s debut, but underperfomed considering the massive hype around his batting.
EDIT: Monish Mishra hit 84 off 37 today for Madhya Pradesh today - looks like the ICL exodus is the key to India's T20 fortunes, if things continue like this.

The Pope has ordered his priests to get more active on the net to spread the word of God, while warning them not to get carried away by the false idols of the digital world.
In a message highlighting that 2010 is the Year for Priests (Catholics only) and flagging up May's 44th World Communications Day, Pope Benedict reminds his priests that "Church communities have always used the modern media".
This sounds bit of a stretch. The Church did very well using mosaics, stained glass, frescos, illuminated gospels and scary sculptures over doorways for a long time.
But there was a little unpleasantness during the reformation on the issue of translations of the bible, and it wasn't until the last century that the Church accepted that people might want to hear the mass in their own language, rather than Latin.
Still, that's all in the past and Benedict has warned priests that simply sticking up a website with mass times and a plea for jumble sale volunteers wasn't enough.
"The spread of multimedia communications and its rich 'menu of options' might make us think it sufficient simply to be present on the Web, or to see it only as a space to be filled," he wrote.
"Priests are thus challenged to proclaim the Gospel by employing the latest generation of audiovisual resources (images, videos, animated features, blogs, websites) which, alongside traditional means, can open up broad new vistas for dialogue, evangelization and catechesis."
Which illustrates one of the potential problems for the Vatican on the web. Apart from being impenetrable to most Catholics, never mind non-believers, just typing words like evangelization and catechesis is going to seriously eat into your Twitter character allowance.
Still, Benedict reminds us that "priests present in the world of digital communications should be less notable for their media savvy than for their priestly heart, their closeness to Christ. This will not only enliven their pastoral outreach, but also will give a 'soul' to the fabric of communications that makes up the 'Web'."
And most importantly, from the Pope's point of view, "priests must always bear in mind that the ultimate fruitfulness of their ministry comes from Christ himself, encountered and listened to in prayer".
Which as the world awaits the launch of the iSlate serves as a timely warning against being carried away by false messiahs. ®

Michael Apted Award Statement
British-born filmmaker Michael Apted, who now lives in California and currently serves as President of the Director's Guild of America, is in no sense a conventional reporter, nor is he formally trained in sociology (although long ago he studied history and law at Cambridge).Nevertheless his instincts and vision are fundamentally sociological, and perfectly fits the key criterion for this award as someone who is "especially effective in disseminating sociological perspectives… for the general public."
Rather than reporting on research conducted by others, Apted's documentaries are made up almost entirely of primary material, which he collects and shapes himself.The Up! documentary film series for which he is best known – the most recent installment of which, 49Up, was released last year – is essentially a longitudinal study of social class, comprised of in-depth, open-ended interviews recorded on film. Apted has followed a group of English children from highly diverse class backgrounds over more than four decades now, and the resulting film series has a worldwide following.
It all started in 1964 when Apted was placed as a researcher on the project that became Seven Up.He and a colleague were given three weeks to recruit children from a set of strategically chosen London schools across the class spectrum.There was no plan for a series at the time; but seven years later Apted pursued the idea.He went on to direct and produce all six of the follow-up films, and he personally has stayed in contact with the subjects during the years in between – all by itself a formidable achievement.When 49Up was released last fall, a collection of the full series in DVD format also became available.Reportedly Apted plans to continue with 56 Up as the next in the series.
Apted also worked on early episodes of the legendary British TV series, "Coronation Street," which depicted the lives of working-class families in Manchester.He want on to make dozens of feature films, several of which also touch on sociological themes, for example Coal Miner's Daughter (1980) , a classic bio-pic of country singer Loretta Lynn; Class Action (1991), about a whistle-blower involved in a lawsuit against an automobile manufacturer; and Amazing Grace (2006), a historical film about anti-slavery advocate William Wilberforce .Apted has also produced an American version of the Up! series for television, which has gone through three installments thus far ( 21 Up in America was completed in 2006), although it has not received nearly the attention of its British counterpart. More recently, in 2002, Apted directed a television documentary Married in America, which is about seven American couples from a variety of social backgrounds, as they are about to embark upon
In the end, though, notwithstanding Apted's prolific output, his nomination for this award must rest primarily on the extraordinary Up! series, his best known and most sociological(albeit sui generis) work.Taking off from the Jesuit aphorism, "Give me the child until he is seven, and I will show you the man," the series vividly chronicles the reproduction of social class – along with a few instances of social mobility – through the lives of the fourteen British children who were first selected by Apted for inclusion in the film Seven Up when he was starting off his film career.Particularly for the individuals from the English upper class and the very poor, the accuracy of the children's own predictions of their class trajectories is shocking in its precision, although there are also a few cases of upward mobility in between these extremes.Apted deals with race and gender issues in the films to some extent as well, although only four of the subjects are women and only one is a person of color.Although the most dramatic changes in the subjects' lives are recounted in the first few films, the series as a whole has never lost its spark, each installment is as gripping as that which preceded it.
Apted is an enormously talented interviewer (although some of the subjects are explicit even on camera about their resentment of his intrusiveness) and – equally important – he is a brilliant editor.He reportedly films about thirty hours for each hour that makes it into the final product. Although he works in a very different medium than the award's first recipient, journalist and author Malcolm Gladwell, Apted's contribution to the public dissemination of sociological insight is at least as impressive.As all of us who regularly teach undergraduates know, film and television are far more effective than books for reaching many audiences today.With the current renaissance that documentary film is enjoying, and the availability of the full series on DVD, Apted's impact – already considerable - can only grow.

Pop the Champagne: Developing-Country Outbound Investment Hits Record High
The UN Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) has just issued its Global Investment Trends Monitor that looks at outward-bound foreign direct investment (FDI). Here's the lead: The share of developing and transition-country FDI in global outflows increased to 28 percent in 2010, up from 15 percent in 2007, the year prior to the global financial crisis. These are historic levels, both in absolute terms and as a share of the global total of outbound FDI.
Another important snippet from UNCTAD is that a full 70 percent of developing and transition-country outward investment is destined toward other developing and transition countries—this is also known as "South-South" investment. The Monitor attributes this trend to the stronger recovery and economic condition is those destinations.

Checking in on… the Mountain WestPosted by jstevrtc on January 22nd, 2010
Andrew Murawa is the RTC correspondent for the Mountain West Conference.
Standings (as of 1/21):
- New Mexico 17-3 3-2
- San Diego State 14-5 3-2
- Colorado State 11-7 2-2
- Utah 9-9 2-2
- Wyoming 8-11 1-4
- Air Force 8-9 0-4
Team of the Week. New Mexico. Two road games (albeit against the eight and ninth place teams in the conference) and two road wins, getting back on track and breaking out of their shooting slump in a big way, knocking down 13 of their 27 three-point attempts against Air Force on Wednesday.
Player of the Week. Malcolm Thomas, Jr, San Diego State. Thomas, a transfer from Pepperdine in his first year with the Aztecs, had a huge week for Steve Fisher, putting in 11 points, grabbing nine rebounds and handing out six assists in a home win against TCU before going for a career high 23 points and ripping down 13 rebounds in a road win at Utah on Tuesday as the Aztecs got right back into the picture at the top of the standings in a bunch of teams with two losses.
Newcomer of the Week. Thomas. I suppose if you're the POTW, and you're a newcomer, you're also the Newcomer of the Week. Special mention to freshman Tyler Haws of BYU, who has turned into a legitimate second offensive threat for the conference-leading Cougars.
Game of the Week. San Diego State 70, Utah 68. After Utah knocked off UNLV at the Thomas & Mack on Saturday, they came back home knowing that things were not going to get a whole lot easier. And with the MWC POTW spending most of the game hanging out above the rim, grabbing rebounds, sending back opposing shots, throwing down dunks, slipping in layups around Utah's seven-foot-five sophomore center David Foster and generally dominating the paint, the Aztecs definitely gave the Utes all they could handle. And yet, down the stretch, with the Aztecs trying to seal off a victory, the free throws clanged off the rim left and right (SDSU was 10-23 from the line over the course of the game, and just 5-11 in the final two minutes). A desperation three by junior guard Carlon Brown at the buzzer, however, rattled off the rim and the Aztecs pulled off a key road win to wrap up a 2-0 week in the MWC.
Games of the Upcoming Week. BYU @ San Diego State, January 23rd , The MTN and BYU @ New Mexico, January 27th, The MTN. While the Cougars are off to a 4-0 start in conference, most of that damage was done in front of the home crowd at the Marriott Center. But Dave Rose and company will have to take their act on the road to face two teams sitting in the pack just behind BYU. If BYU can come through this week unscathed, you can pencil them in as the one seed in Vegas in March.
League Notes:
A couple weeks worth of conference play is in the rearview mirror, and those standings are starting to look like we expected them to look now: BYU at the top, a pack including UNLV, New Mexico and San Diego State sitting within striking distance, a pack in the middle including Utah, and Wyoming and Air Force bringing up the rear. While there will be some type of shuffling throughout the year, expect those tiers to remain relatively intact.
Also of note, this week's Utah/Wyoming game will be the last MWC game that will not be televised on either The MTN, CBS College Sports Network or Versus.
Team Roundups:
Looking back: BYU had a couple of home games against middle-of-the-pack MWC teams this week, and coasted, winning by an average of 29.5 points. The week started with a matchup with Colorado State, a battle between the final two teams with undefeated conference records. While the Rams hung around through a few TV timeouts, the Cougars posted a 12-0 run heading into the break and then went on to post a 53-25 second half romp on their way to a 44-point thrashing of CSU. They followed that up with a solid 15-point victory over Wyoming and now sit on the verge of a 20-win season before February even arrives. While junior guard Jimmer Fredette's return from mono to have a solid week may be the most important news of the week, the continued development of Haws may be just as important to BYU's hopes come March. This week, Haws posted a new career high of 24 points against Wyoming, and also added 11 against CSU.
Looking ahead: As mentioned above in our Game of the Upcoming Week section, this is a huge week for the Cougars with two road games against very good competition in front of very unwelcoming crowds, at San Diego State on Saturday, then at New Mexico on Wednesday.
New Mexico
Looking back: While the opponents weren't impressive, and the Lobos continued to struggle at times, the outcomes of the game (two road wins) vaulted New Mexico back up the standings and gave them new confidence. Sophomore guard Philip McDonald was the hottest Lobo this week, averaging 20 points per game and knocking down ten threes in the process, including a career high seven as the Lobos caught fire from behind the arc in the second half against Air Force on Wednesday, after their shooting woes had continued against Wyoming on Saturday (3-19 from three). But, it was the Lobo defense that saved the day against the Cowboys as they forced 23 turnovers on the game, including turnovers on three straight possession after the Cowboys came back to tie the score at 58. New Mexico converted those three turnovers into six points and never looked back, eking out a two-point road victory.
Looking ahead: Back to the home-court advantage of The Pit, as the Lobos will host Colorado State on Saturday before hosting conference-leader BYU on Wednesday.
Looking back: The Rebels emerge from the week with a 1-1 record, and remain right in the thick of things at the top of the MWC standings, but their play this week was less than impressive. While junior guard Tre'Von Willis provided most of the offensive spark for the Rebels this week (24 PPG, plus six rebounds and four assists in a loss to Utah on Saturday), it was sophomore forward Chace Stanback who took the biggest step forward this week, going for 14/10 against Utah, then pouring in 19 points, including 15 in the second half as the Rebels withstood Colorado State in Fort Collins. However, all the weaknesses that are apparent in UNLV's lineup were on display this week, as the team went 1/12 from three in their loss at Utah and turning the ball over 16 times in allowing CSU to hang around. While Willis and Stanback have turned into the lead duo for the Rebels and sophomore point Oscar Bellfield is an excellent leader, there is precious little consistency beyond those three and that will need to change should UNLV hope to be a serious threat for the MWC title.
Looking ahead: The Rebels travel to TCU on Saturday, then host Air Force on Tuesday as the schedule lightens up a bit before round two of the MWC home-and-home round robin.
San Diego State
Looking back: The main takeaway from this week is a 2-0 record, including the tough road win at the Huntsman Center detailed above in our Game of the Week section. Before that, however, the Aztecs also added a home win against TCU, during which the Aztecs defense forced 20 TCU turnovers and limited the Horned Frogs to just six free throw attempts (compared to SDSU's 25). However, as things start to tighten up as we head towards March, the Aztecs know they will have to shoot their free throws better. Over the week, the Aztecs made just 25 of their 48 free throw attempts, and over the season they rank 344th in Division I in free throw percentage, just 58.4%, a weakness that could prove deadly in close games.
Looking ahead: Just one game for the Aztecs this week, but it is a doozy as they host BYU at the Mesa on Saturday.
Colorado State
Looking back: A week ago at this time, the Rams were undefeated and riding high. Two losses to two of the conference's power teams later, and CSU is back where they deserve to be: right in the middle of the MWC pack. The Rams got exposed as pretenders to the MWC crown when they visited Provo on Saturday, failing to show up at all in the second half, but to head coach Tim Miles' credit, he had his kids ready to play at home against UNLV on Wednesday. The Rams held tight all night, forced 16 turnovers, got 20 points (including five threes) from freshman point Dorian Green, but wound up losing the game at the free throw line, making just 16 of their 28 free throw attempts while UNLV his 19 of their 23. It was made pretty clear this week that the Rams are not up to the level of the top teams in the conference, but they seem to be very capable of finishing atop the middle-of-the-pack tier.
Looking ahead: If the one-two punch of BYU/UNLV wasn't enough, the Rams get an extra course with a trip to New Mexico on Saturday. On Wednesday, things will settle down a little as the Rams get to pick on someone their own size as they host TCU in what should be an evenly-matched battle.
Looking back: TCU's lone conference game of the week was a trip out west to face San Diego State on Saturday, and for a half at least things looked pretty good. The Horned Frogs were on fire in the first session, hitting 70% of their shots and six of their eight threes on the way to a nine-point halftime lead. However, they couldn't keep up the pace in the second half, knocking down only seven of their 21 field goal attempts (although six of those seven makes were from behind the arc) and they were outscored by 14 in the second half. While the Frogs still wound up shooting at a 55% clip from behind the arc in the game, they turned the ball over 20 times and only got to the free throw line six times. On Wednesday, Jim Christian's squad wrapped up non-conference play with a date with Texas-Pan American, and without a doubt the coach got in their ears about not relying on the three-point shot, as the Horned Frogs made a whopping 73% of their shots inside the arc on their way to a 12-point win. Sophomore point Tuffy Moss bounced back from some unsteady play last week by handing out 21 dimes this week, and senior forward Zvonko Buljan added 11.5 PPG and 9 RPG.
Looking ahead: TCU hosts UNLV on Saturday, then travels to Colorado State on Wednesday.
Looking back: This is the type of week we have predicted all along for Utah, knocking off an upper-echelon team on the road, then backing it up with a home loss. This Ute team remains only predictable in their inconsistency, and at some point this season, they will throw up a loss to Wyoming or Air Force or TCU just to prove it. In an upset victory at UNLV on Saturday, the Utes looked like a solid, veteran squad, hitting half of their field goals in the second half, hitting half of their threes over the course of the game and knocking down seven of their eight free throws in the final 90 seconds to withstand a late charge by the Rebels. They got balanced scoring (four players in double figures), they rebounded well, they played solid defense, they got six blocks from Foster, Brown knocked down some clutch threes, freshman guard Marshall Henderson added five more threes and they held on for a four point win. Three nights later, playing in front of a supportive Huntsman Center crowd, well, let's just say things didn't work out. They shot only 23% from the field in the first half, and despite SDSU's best try at giving the game away (detailed in our MWC Game of the Week section above), Utah came away with a split over the week.
Looking ahead: Looking at the schedule, this looks to be a good week for the Utes, as they host Air Force before heading to Laramie to face Wyoming on Wednesday. Knowing this Utah team, don't be surprised if they shoot 24% from the field for a game and drop one of these.
Looking back: Heath Schroyer had to know coming into the week that this was going to be a tough week, facing two of the elite teams in the conference. While the Cowboys played New Mexico tough in Laramie on Saturday, losing by just two despite turning the ball over 23 times, things took a bad turn early in Wednesday's game in Provo when sophomore swing Afam Muojeke went down with a knee injury early in the first half and didn't return. Wyoming never seemed to recover emotionally from that blow, and that combined with another 17 turnovers led to a 15-point loss at Wyoming. As of Thursday, the extent of Muojeke's injury was not yet known, although he did miss four games earlier this year with a bruised knee.
Looking ahead: Wyoming hosts Utah on Wednesday in their only game of the week.
Air Force
Looking back: Different week, same Air Force story; another loss (to New Mexico by 23 on Wednesday), and another injury report. Senior forward Mike McLain returned from his concussion and got 21 minutes in the New Mexico game and senior guard Avery Merriex continues to play through a broken nose after returning from a concussion. Still no sign of nor report on senior forward Grant Parker (groin injury) or sophomore center Sammy Schafer (complications from concussion). While this Falcon team never had a chance to be an elite MWC team, it would have been interesting to see where this team could have finished with a full complement of players and they could still be capable of springing an upset or two if they ever get back near full strength. Junior guard Evan Washington did break out of a slump a bit this week with 16 points, six rebounds and three assists against the Lobos.
Looking ahead: At Utah on Saturday and at UNLV on Tuesday. Looks like another brutal week for the Falcons.
