Interviews: David McDermott (9/01)
The Robots in Disguise television show is not slated to air until September 2001. However, Mr. David McDermott, a producer on the series was kind enough to take time out to answer some questions about this latest entry into the Transformers universe.
*Note: any text in red are notes by yours truly.
- Has a voice talent company been chosen to provide the voices for Robots in Disguise? If so, who?
We didn't use a company per se --we held auditions and cast each voice separately. However, as there's a relatively small and tight-knit pool of people who do this sort of work, most of our cast have worked together on other shows.
Again, Saban does so much of this type of work, they have a pool of writers well-versed in matching sync, etc. They're all names you might have seen on other projects--Steve Kramer (Robotech, Power Rangers), Tom Wyner (Samurai Pizza Cats, Robotech), Marc Handler (Voltron, Voltron 3D)...
Not really. We're pretty much staying with the original plots, except where we made small adjustments to bring things a little more in line with the classic G1 characters and story.
We'll be doing a few "Transformer-vision" overlays on POV/targeting shots, and we've recreated the classic '80's-style transitions, again, to reinforce the identification with the first US series, but that's really all.
As you know, the first group of bad guys in the series are all beast-based, so they are ID'ed as Predacons. Later, when evil vehicle-based robots appear, Megatron will unite all evil Transformers under the banner Decepticons. At least, that's the current plan. We're still working on scripts.
Well, there's really no way to work around it. Each episode is a minute and change short of our format anyway--if we cut out every goofy take and sight gag, the show would only be about five minutes long. We're working with the humor that's built into the series, and trying to find English equivalents to the gags in the Japanese dialogue--punch lines like "Sorry, I've never been to Shinjuku before!" don't exactly translate. I don't know if a lot of the hard-core G1 fans will like it, but we're banking the kids will appreciate the humor.
Right now, we're planning on early September.
It's rather backwards, but somehow, it all comes together. First, the scripts are translated into a very literal (but not all that entertaining) timecoded dialogue list. Then, we view each episode in the original Japanese, reading the translation along with the picture. Then, the picture is edited for format and content (Some Japanese animation is too graphic for US broadcast--not Car Robots , of course. It borders on too wacky!). Any additional elements, like the wipes and POV overlays we mentioned earlier, are added at this stage and the picture "locked."
At that point, the translation and the locked picture are sent to the writers, who write a new time-coded dialogue script, making sure the words flow right and match the lip-flap as much as possible. Then the voice actors record the new dialogue to picture, matching the timing of the lip-flap--sometimes the dialogue is tweaked in recording to get the timing just right.
At the same time elsewhere, sound effects and music editors are working on their tracks, using the same locked picture as reference. Then, all three tracks, dialogue, music, and effects (really multiple stereo tracks, of course) are mixed in a studio and matched with the picture, and the resulting tape is
delivered to network operations for broadcast.
Well, in a sense, you're working in reverse--normally, you'd write and record, THEN animate--so you do lose a certain amount of creative freedom. Then again, you're not really supposed to be putting your own spin on things so much as recreating for an English-speaking audience the same experience the Japanese-speaking audience would have. There are certain cultural differences, but given the tremendous entertainment "cross-pollination" the US and Japan have experienced over the years, those differences seem to matter less and less all the time. The interesting thing here is that, for the first time, we're seeing a Japanese take on a property that has become a huge cultural icon in America. EVERYONE has heard of Transformers, but America hasn't seen the Japanese version until now.

Spain: a windsurfing paradise in Europe
Competition on the Costa Brava
World Championship on the beach at Pozo Izquierdo (Gran Canaria)
Sotavento Beach in Fuerteventura
Spain is considered Europe's windsurfing Mecca. There are many reasons for this: thousands of kilometres of coastline, all kinds of wind conditions and a warm climate are just a few of them. It is no coincidence that Spanish beaches are a point of reference for windsurfing enthusiasts, as well as being the stage for regular international competitions. Any time of year is good for windsurfing in Spain.
Every year, thousands of windsurfing enthusiasts from all over the world come to Spain's beaches to practise their favourite sport. Spain is one of the best places for windsurfing in Europe. For this reason it is no surprise that Spain is the country to host the most world championship competitions. Its privileged natural conditions make it a real paradise for the sport. You will also find that the Spanish coast has many other advantages, including excellent hotel and services infrastructure and the chance to enjoy a broad range of leisure facilities and cultural attractions. If the surfboard is a vital part of your holiday, then make sure Spain figures in your travel plans.
Legendary locations
You can go windsurfing all year round in Spain. The pleasant year-round temperatures in the Canary Islands mean that you can sail whenever you want, while the beaches of mainland Spain are ideal from the beginning of April to the end of November, at the least. Spring and autumn are best, however, on account of the favourable winds and less crowded beaches. You will find a host of ideal places for windsurfing all along the Spanish coast. Nevertheless, there are certain locations with international renown, either for their windsurfing tradition or good access. This is the case of the Canary Islands, known as the Hawaii of Europe in windsurfing circles. Here you will find spots with perfect waves and almost year-round trade winds: in Gran Canaria, a destination that has produced many windsurfing champions, you will find the mythical Pozo Izquierdo, in the municipal district of Santa Lucía de Tirajana, 37 kilometres from the capital Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. Also outstanding are the beaches of Jandía in the south of the island of Fuerteventura, especially Sotavento in Pájara; while in Lanzarote the star is Las Cucharas on the Costa Teguise coast, just 7 kilometres from Arrecife. In Tenerife, a safe place for windsurfing is El Médano, in the south of the island.
Have fun learning too
Special mention should be made of Tarifa, on the southern coast of mainland Spain, known as the "European wind capital". This area of the province of Cadiz has all but untouched beaches, an amazing atmosphere, and lives for windsurfing. The thermal winds of the Mediterranean coast make for more peaceful, leisurely sailing conditions, ideal to enjoy as a family. On the Costa Brava, the infrastructure of the Gulf of Roses area, in Girona, offers close to 12 kilometres of recreational beaches, although the prevailing north winds in autumn and winter also make it an ideal spot for windsurfing. On the Costa Cálida in Murcia, the Mar Menor area has ideal conditions to start learning how to windsurf. It has a complete Maritime Resort, with fifteen or so schools to perfect your style. These are just some of the most famous places to have fun with your board, but the list of spots apt for windsurfing in Spain is huge. El Ejido in Almería, la Lanzada in Pontevedra and Pollensa, on the island of Majorca are a few of them. Furthermore, in nearby towns and villages you will find numerous companies offering equipment hire and windsurfing schools. Don't get left behind: whether you are a beginner or a pro, Spain is an unbeatable destination for windsurfing. We will be waiting for you.

yesterday madExcept helped us locate a buffer overrun in our software.
Very happy about that.
Now I wanted to test our App a bit more with the 'buffer overrun' check active.
The problem is that I am getting EOutOfMemory Exceptions very early, so I can barely test anything.
It is clear that when this check is active a lot more RAM will be consumed. But I do believe I have found a problem.
I created a bare bones test application. It has just one button:
Button 1: Keeps allocating Memory until EOutOfMemory is thrown.
I added this to the dpr file:
- Code: Select all
{$SetPEFlags IMAGE_FILE_LARGE_ADDRESS_AWARE}
Since I am running on a 64 bit System this gives my 32 bit test project 4 GB of RAM.
I can verify this is the case, when I hit the button and the madExcept box popups once the EOutOfMemoryException is raised.
Allocated memory is at 3.84 GB.
Now if I enable the buffer overrun test, the EOutOfMemoryException is raised much faster.
Allocated memory is at: 1.90 GB.
So it seems that the custom madExcept Memory Manager is not honoring the IMAGE_FILE_LARGE_ADDRESS_AWARE flag.
Could you please comment on this?

CHICAGO—Bally Total Fitness, which is no longer up for sale, is now searching for a new CEO following the ousting of Paul Toback. Toback, chairman and CEO, resigned on Aug. 11. He earned a severance of more than $3.8 million and had 135,000 shares of his restricted stock vested. As part of the involuntary separation agreement, Bally will provide Toback and his family with health insurance coverage for the next nine years and pay Toback any unpaid base salary and accrued and unused vacation time through the effective date of Aug. 11.
Two new Bally board members will replace Toback on a temporary basis. Bally appointed Don Kornstein, the founder and managing partner of Alpine Advisors, as the interim chairman, and Barry Elson, the former acting chief executive officer and director of Telewest Global, as the interim CEO.
Bally is also shifting course in its strategic alternatives process. Because discussions with potential buyers have not yet resulted in a proposal, agreement or transaction involving a sale or merger, Bally is now focusing on recapitalization, private placement, underwritten rights offering or another type of corporate restructuring.
For more information, read Bally's Aug. 11 filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. If you're interested in commenting on Toback's involuntary resignation or the future of Bally, e-mail Amy Fischbach.

Year 2552. The Earth is no longer habitable since year 2401 due to the atmosphere collapse and temperature rise in planet Earth. Human race has been forced to live in the different colonized planets into the Solar System. This was called "The Second Exodus". After the "Enceladus Atmosphere Implementation Program" (EAIP) succeeded in year 2295, Saturn's moon ENCELADUS turned into the most important human colony into the Solar System altogether with Titan's. Even though the extreme cold conditions are still uncontrollable in a 40% of Enceladus, there's liquid water produced during the EAIP in a almost a 35% of its surface, enabling the proper ecosystem for human being subsistence and many other life forms... Due to its perfect gravity conditions (very similar to the Earth's) after the EAIP, ENCELADUS colony became a planet of interest to Aperture Laboratories to develop its more ambitious testing program, The Enceladus Initiative.

Chris Weidman sent a shock wave through mixed martial arts, stopping Anderson Silva in the second round of the main event at UFC 162 to become the new middleweight champion on Saturday night.
LAS VEGAS (AP) ? Chris Weidman sent a shock wave through mixed martial arts, stopping Anderson Silva in the second round of the main event at UFC 162 to become the new middleweight champion on Saturday night.
Silva talked, taunted and dared Weidman to engage him. When the champion lowered his hands early in the second round, Weidman caught him with a short left that sent the MMA star to the mat. Weidman pounced and landed a few more shots that forced referee Herb Dean to stop the fight at 1:18.
"I felt destined for this," Weidman said. "It was far-fetched, but I imagined it so many times before in my head."
The win put an end to Silva's nearly seven-year reign atop the UFC middleweight division and his 17-fight win streak.
"I worked for this fight, Chris Weidman is the best now. He is the champion," Silva said. "I've had the belt for a long time. I'm tired."
The former champion fell to 33-5 with the loss.
"(Silva) was an idol of mine. I didn't want to mention it in the camp," said Weidman (10-0), who earned knockout of the night award. "I looked up to him for many years."
In the co-main event in front of a capacity crowd at the MGM Grand Garden in Las Vegas, former lightweight champion Frankie Edgar outwrestled and outstruck Charles Oliveira to get the win by unanimous decision.
Fighting in his first non-title fight in more than 3� years, Edgar looked sharp and utilized excellent footwork to avoid Oliveira. The first two rounds were close, but the third saw Edgar land a number of clean power punches and pull away for the win.
"I thought I had him hurt in the third, but he showed some toughness," said Edgar, who improved to 15-4-1 and placed himself in title contention with the win. Oliveira fell to 16-4.
On the main card, Mark Munoz and Tim Kennedy each earned unanimous decision victories and Cub Swanson bested Dennis Siver in a battle of highly ranked featherweights with a third round TKO.

For the last 3 months I have been very focused on sales of our Interaction Engine system and we are doing well on that score. As a result, though, I have not really shaped the business plan and the structure of our company for the inevitable VC round to come. Getting funding has not been an urgent requirement and it seemed far better to generate real revenue and then go for funding.
So as we are chugging along, our work has gotten the attention of two VCs who reached out for a meeting. This was my first introduction to the world of VCs and I confess, the meetings were startling and sobering; leaving me strangely ambivalent about the journey ahead on this front.
VC meeting number 1.
It was a rainy, NY winter day and we decided to meet at a coffee shop. I knew that this fund was more an incubator type which offered me the potential of being part of a startup community. It seemed like a good idea that I perhaps become part of the NY "Tech/ CEO club" since now, I am an outlier. I don't hang out in Meetup sessions and I am not trekking across the country chasing the cool tech conferences (OK – I confess I am going to SXSW but only because they asked me to speak).
I enter the coffee shop with only the vaguest sense of what the VC looked like (his Twitter pix was decidedly not very useful). It took me a solid 8 minutes to spot him. As I approach I see this 30ish guy with a quirky winter cone hat that was just 2 degrees "off" – IMO wandering into "silly land." It was hard not to laugh out loud at the effect – but I held my composure.
I sit down and we start chatting. I was curious to understand his investing philosophy. His focus decidedly was on individual technologies – why Foursquare will be huge or how this new app model will revolutionize some trend or other. When I wondered with him about the lack of a clear business model which limits their practical use for marketers, he dismissed that concern with a wave of the hand. "Well, that's won't be a problem for long – once the old guard is gone."
Wow. Clearly that meant me. I took his comment to mean that only the "newer" generation have the depth to understand new marketing technologies. I was dumbfounded and I was shaken. The gap between us was, technologically speaking, generational – perhaps never to be bridged. But mostly I was stunned at how immature his thinking was about how the business of marketing really works. I was shaken knowing his company was helping drive the evolution of marketing without a clue about what marketers really need.
The rest of the conversation was a haze TBH. I left traumatized and angry at how dismissive he was of the impracticality of his vision of marketing technology evolution.
VC meeting number 2
This CEO leads a well-respected large VC shop that does $2- 5MM deals. I had been introduced to this VC through a mutual colleague and we met at his office one snowy day. He sat down in comfortable business casual attire that was in keeping with his experienced CEO role.
We started by talking about his company which was relocating to the East Coast from the West Coast. Interesting move and I asked him why. "Increasingly the smart money is coming to NY as this where many of the major new media and marketing operating business trends are evolving," he said.
This was my dream VC – he understood the space and the problem my company was trying to solve – how to practically create the "many to many" marketing model. We compared notes on how the technology in this space was similar to CRM in the 1990s – full of possibility but lacking in coordinated systems to activate the technology. I suggested that we are a bit like what Siebel who, at the time, integrated all the telemarketing technologies into the system we now know as CRM. I feel that is what we are doing for the emerging "many to many" marketing model. We met for a solid 90 minutes at which point he asked me "What next?" Shockingly, I had no "ask." I had been so traumatized by the first VC, that I had not really expected a question like that. I stumbled around and just admitted – "I don't know."
But then I turned it around and asked him: "How would you categorize my company? We are part system integrator, part content and media company. We are a "creative shop" in that we create customer interactions with technology. Are we a tech company, a services company?"
I could see he was sensitive to the dilemma of my question. Finally, he said, "I would put you in the digital media space." I was shocked until he hastened to add: "You need to be defined somehow so people know to work with you and help you." But in his gentle smile I could see his answer left him unsatisfied as well.
We parted agreeing to keeping up the dialogue. As I walked out of his office, I felt cautiously optimistic that the work we are doing is needed in the market.
One thing I learned from both meetings – the journey of starting a company will continue to be a journey of surprise. I never expected to have so dramatically divergent experiences as I tentatively start down the path of funding my company – even if I don't know exactly what type of company I am creating.
All I know is that the "smart investment money is going towards the business operating companies" and that's me. Cool – right?

Miguel Cabrera left the batter's box with a bit of a hop in his step while his drive to right field sailed over the wall.
DETROIT (AP) ? Miguel Cabrera left the batter's box with a bit of a hop in his step while his drive to right field sailed over the wall.
"A long time, I had not hit a home run," the slugger said.
Cabrera's solo shot in the sixth inning was his 44th of the year, but his first since Aug. 26. It was perhaps the most encouraging highlight for Detroit in a 6-2 victory over the Seattle Mariners on Tuesday night that kept the Tigers six games ahead of second-place Cleveland in the AL Central.
Detroit's magic number to eliminate the Indians is six.
Ahead 3-2, the Tigers escaped a bases-loaded jam in the eighth while playing without closer Joaquin Benoit and left-handed reliever Drew Smyly. They were both given the night off.
"We need everybody here on our ballclub," Cabrera said. "I think everybody here stepped up tonight and did their jobs. It's what we need to still win our games, what we need if we go to the playoffs."
Anibal Sanchez struck out 10 in 6 1-3 innings, but the Mariners tied it at 2 against him in the seventh, forcing Detroit's relievers into action.
Al Alburquerque (3-3) got out of the seventh, and Phil Coke and Jose Alvarez made it through a dodgy eighth. Alvarez got two outs in the ninth, and Jose Veras finished.
Yoervis Medina (4-6) took the loss. The Mariners have dropped eight of nine.
Cabrera has been bothered by a number of injuries that have affected his legs and midsection, so his opposite-field solo shot was a welcome sight for the Comerica Park crowd. It gave Detroit a 2-1 lead, but pinch-hitter Kendrys Morales tied it with an RBI double in the seventh.
Alex Avila led off the bottom of the seventh with his first triple of the year, and after Jose Iglesias was hit by a pitch, Avila was caught in a rundown between third and home on Jackson's grounder.
Avila stayed in the rundown long enough to enable Iglesias to go all the way from first to third, and Torii Hunter's sacrifice fly put the Tigers ahead 3-2.
They weren't safe yet, though. With Benoit and Smyly unavailable, Coke walked two hitters, sandwiched around an error by Iglesias at shortstop. Alvarez came on with the bases loaded and got Mike Zunino to hit into a double play that kept the Tigers ahead.
"Obviously, I was trying for a groundball," Alvarez said. "That was a good AB for the hitter ? a couple good pitches foul. ... If we don't make the play in that situation, it costs us the game maybe, but we make it and we take the win."
Zunino drew two walks but couldn't come through in what was probably the biggest at-bat of the game.
"I was just trying to battle and get the ball to the outfield," he said. "I'm sure I saw every pitch he had, and I was keeping myself alive, but I just didn't do what I needed to do. A groundball was the worst thing in the world right there, and they turned two on me."
Omar Infante added an RBI single in the bottom of the inning, and Austin Jackson's two-run single made it 6-2.
Sanchez allowed six hits and two walks in 6 1-3 innings. His American League-leading ERA is now at 2.51. He threw 125 pitches.
"I'm not tired, more frustrated that I got the lead twice today and I don't keep the score," Sanchez said. "But at the end we win. That's the most important thing."
Don Kelly's fourth-inning homer put Detroit ahead 1-0, but Raul Ibanez tied it in the sixth with his 28th homer of the year.
Seattle starter Brandon Maurer pitched five-plus innings, allowing two runs and five hits. He walked two and struck out six.
"I thought Maurer was much better today than he's been," Mariners manager Eric Wedge said. "He's struggled lately, and he was pitching at this time of year against that team, but he didn't let any of that get to him. He kept his emotions in check and did a very nice job."
NOTES: Detroit manager Jim Leyland said DH Victor Martinez will catch Thursday's game. ... Detroit RHP Justin Verlander (13-11) faces Seattle RHP Hisashi Iwakuma (12-6) on Wednesday night.

The new RSX-3 monitor and RCX-3 center channel will be merchandised with a Reference Series RW-8 subwoofer in a home theater package called the Cinema 6.
As with all Reference Satellite models, the new RSX-3 monitor and RCX-3 center channel are unobtrusive, stylish and versatile loudspeakers that fit almost anywhere, in any type of system, in any type of environment.
Both of these models have integrated pedestal stands with ball joints that allow them to be adjusted in almost any direction by simply using the provided allen wrench. Keyholes are provided on the underside of the stand base for no-hassle wall mounting. Grilles magnetically snap into place over the front baffles, while sturdy five-way binding posts ensure secure connection to any type of cable.
Available in a black or silver finish, the RSX-3 and RCX-3 are both two-way, magnetically shielded speakers that employ 3.5-inch aluminum woofers and 0.75-inch titanium-dome compression drivers coupled to Klipsch's new round MicroTractrix™ Horns for maximum clarity and efficiency. These loudspeakers also feature high-quality network components and top-of-the-line internal wiring.
The woofers are long-throw units driven by powerful ceramic magnetic motor structures. The Cerametallic™ cones are lightweight with excellent rigidity, which dramatically reduces any resonance. As a result, the RSX-3 and RCX-3 are capable of robust bass extending low enough for comfortable operation with today's built-in A/V preamp/processor and receiver crossovers.
Expected to ship in June 2004, the RSX-3 and RCX-3 will be sold together in a single box that includes four RSX-3s and one RCX-3 for a U.S. MSRP of $600. The Cinema 6 package, including the RW-8 subwoofer, will carry a U.S. MSRP of $950.

AUBURN — The Arkansas State University football team saw its nation's second-longest nine-game winning streak come to an end as the Red Wolves suffered a 38-9 loss to the Auburn Tigers this Saturday night (Sept. 7) in front of a crowd of 83,246 at AU's Jordan-Hare Stadium in Auburn, Ala.
Arkansas State, which is now 1-1 on the season, battled Auburn (2-0) the entire game but the Tigers controlled the play on both sides of the ball for the majority of the non-league contest. The A-State setback was the Red Wolves' first since a 26-13 home conference loss to Western Kentucky a season ago (9/29) and also snapped a four-game road winning streak.
Auburn started the game by scoring on its opening two possessions to claim a 14-3 lead with just under four minutes left in the first quarter. The Tigers stuck first at the 11:37 mark as quarterback Nick Marshall connected with wide receiver Marcus Davis on a third-down 18-yard scoring strike. A-State bounced back by tallying on its first possession as the Red Wolves marched 58 yards on 14 plays culminating in senior kicker Brian Davis' 34-yard field goal at 6:54 to make the score 7-3. A 16-yard pass from senior quarterback Adam Kennedy to sophomore tight end Darion Griswold highlighted the A-State's initial scoring drive.
On its next possession, Auburn found paydirt again when running back Corey Grant scampered 17 yards into the end zone putting the Tigers up 14-3 with 3:56 on the clock. A-State took the ensuing kickoff and would get into Auburn territory, which was aided by a 40-yard Kennedy pass completion to sophomore wide receiver J.D. McKissic. The Red Wolves' drive would stall at the AU 20-yard line on an unsuccessful fourth-and-one rush.
A-State was able to keep Auburn off the scoreboard until 2:20 remaining in the second quarter as the Tigers went up 21-3 following Nick Marshall's 68-yard TD pass to sophomore wide receiver Sammie Coates. At the half, the Red Wolves compiled 161 passing yards while the Tigers had 139 to go with 143 yards on the ground.
Trailing 21-3 at halftime, Arkansas State came out in the third quarter by scoring six unanswered points on a pair of Brian Davis field goals to close within 21-9. Davis booted a 21-yarder at 9:58 to finish an 11-play, 71-yard drive, which was set up on quarterback keepers of 28 yards by Kennedy and 17 yards from sophomore Fredi Knighten. Auburn would turn the ball over on its possession as A-State junior cornerback Artez Brown recovered a Nick Marshall fumble on a third-and-11 situation withunder nine minutes to go at the AU 17-yard line and the Red Wolves would capitalize as Brian Davis made a 42-yard field goal with 7:53 left in the quarter. Auburn accounted for the final points of the stanza on an 11-yard TD run by running back Tre Mason with over a minute left to claim a 28-9 lead after three quarters.
In the fourth quarter, Auburn tacked on 10 more points with a field goal and a TD. Cody Parkey split the uprights from 35 yards out with 8:46 remaining and running back Cameron Artis-Payne, who ran for agame-high 102 yards, would score on a 12-yard run at 1:43 to wrap up the scoring.
A-State rolled up 24 first downs and 422 total offensive yards while Auburn had 23 first downs to go with 468 yards in total offense. Adam Kennedy led the Red Wolves with 74 rushing yards on 12 attempts to go with 29-of-41 in passing for 272 yards. Senior running back David Oku ran for 48 yards on 16 carries and had six receptions for 70 yards. Kennedy's favorite target was senior wideout Julian Jones, who caught a game-high seven passes for 29 yards. Darion Griswold totaled five grabs for 46 yards.
For Auburn, Nick Marshall threw for 147 yards and two TD's on 10-of-17 passing and also ran for 53 yards. Tre Mason chalked up 99 yards on the ground as the Tigers finished with 301 as a team.
Sophomore rover Chris Humes and junior free safety Sterling Young topped A-State defensively with 12 (nine solos) and 10 tackles (seven solos), respectively. Junior middle linebacker Qushaun Lee and senior nose tackle Ryan Carrethers contributed seven stops apiece. Cornerback Chris Davis' 10 tackles (seven solos) led Auburn defense, which limited Arkansas State to 150 rushing yards.
Arkansas State returns home next Thursday, Sept. 12, as the Red Wolves host the TroyTrojans in their Sun Belt Conference (SBC) opener at Liberty Bank Stadium. A 6:30 p.m. (CT) opening kickoff is scheduled for the contest, which will be televised live on ESPNU. Tickets for the contest and all remaining 2013 A-State home games may be purchased by contacting the ASU Central Box Office at 870-972-ASU1 (2781) or 1-888-ASU-FANS.

Life under austerity
For more than a hundred years, coal anchored families to the mountain hollows of eastern Kentucky. But a dying mining industry, and government austerity, has left folks chasing any rumor, any scrap, any whiff of a job that's still to be had.
The hurt is around every corner in places like Harlan, Ky., as the global market thumbed its nose at central Appalachian coal. The unemployment rate is as high as 18 percent.
And just when residents needed it most, Congress pared back the safety net that's there to catch them. Federally funded programs that retrained miners, fed the poor and helped the elderly have been put on the chopping block thanks to sequestration cuts, budget fights and partisan politics. Left behind is a stricken landscape and a community struggling to stay together.
Photographer Peter van Agtmael spent time in eastern Kentucky documenting the daily life of these struggling communities.
Read "Ain't nothing here," Suzy Khimm's report from the struggling town.

Chris Brown Withdraws From Kids' Choice Awards
Chris Brown is officially letting Nickelodeon off the hook, and taking himself off the list of nominees at the upcoming Kids' Choice Awards.
In a statement, his rep says:
"Chris very much appreciates the support of his fans and the honor they have paid him in the way of nominations for Favorite Male Singer and Favorite Song.
Unfortunately, the controversy surrounding the incident last month has shifted the focus from the music to whether he should be allowed to be among those nominated.
While Chris would like to speak to his fans directly about this and other issues, pending legal proceedings preclude his doing so at this time. Once the matter before him has been resolved, he intends to do so."
A rep for Nickelodeon tells us: "We are confirming that Chris Brown has decided to withdraw his nominations from the Kids' Choice Awards. We agree with and respect his decision, and are looking forward to presenting a great event for our audience."

In the summer of 2007, as storm clouds gathered over the world's financial system, then-New York Federal Reserve President Timothy Geithner allegedly informed the Bank of America and other banks about the possibility the U.S. central bank would lower one of its critical interest rates, according to a senior Fed official.
Jeffrey Lacker, the head of the Richmond Fed, originally raised the allegation during a Fed conference call in August 2007, and he stuck to his 5-year-old claim against the current U.S. treasury secretary in a statement provided to Reuters on Friday.
But of course the above is a nine-day-old story and no one important has raised a peep about Geithner's 'crime'. Looking at the mainstream media, well … Ryan Chittum of the Columbia Journalism Review observes incredulously (link in original):
The New York Times gives this big story perfunctory coverage, downplays it as a "tiff" in the headline, and stuffs it inside the paper. The Wall Street Journal, the Financial Times, and Bloomberg haven't even touched the story.
I mean, what? You have a Fed president accusing the outgoing Treasury Secretary—one loudly criticized for his closeness to Wall Street—of giving bankers critical inside information, and you're not going to even flag that?
Chittum cites Zero Hedge as the first to notice the accusation in just disclosed Fed committee minutes, and acknowledges that only Zero Hedge has actually advanced the story to what would seem more red-handed criminality by numerous banking executives, in that those tipped by Geithner acted on his inside information. Chittum writes that Zero Hedge noticed the Lacker takedown of Geithner "came at about 6:15 p.m. on August 16, four hours after stocks had jumped a stunning 4 percent in the span of sixty minutes." He then quotes Zero Hedge:
Many shorts ended up being carted out of the front door that day, unsure what has just happened. Sure enough, the next day at 8:00 am the Fed did what it had decided the previously it would do, and announce the 50 bps cut to the discount rate to fed funds rate spread…
…the S&P futures moved from a low of 1320 (and 1330 at the 2:00 pm moment that the market saw a mysterious "invisible hand" pushing it higher), all the way to well over 1410 the next day: an unprecedented 90 ES point move in a few hours!
Zero Hedge concludes by crushing all hope with the following observation:
Maybe there is a reason why the Fed has a 5 year delay in disclosing full transcripts. Because something tells us the statute of limitations on pursuing Fed inside information disclosure charges against the soon to be ex-Treasury Secretary will have just expired.
Props to RT's Max Keiser for his show, which detailed the criminality. Of course, as Max said, Geithner's acts were actually 'just' another ripping apart of the social contract and not criminality, because by design the Statute of Limitations has apparently expired. Damn, post-democracy sucks.
P.S. Here's the August 16, 2007 conference call transcript:
GEITHNER: Although (the banks) had lots of clarification about what is permitted now under current policies at the discount window, they obviously don't have any idea that we're contemplating a change in policy or what might be possible and what we might say or not say going forward…
MR. LACKER. Vice Chairman Geithner, did you say that they are unaware of what we're
considering or what we might be doing with the discount rate?
VICE CHAIRMAN GEITHNER. Yes.
MR. LACKER. Vice Chairman Geithner, I spoke with Ken Lewis, President and CEO of
Bank of America, this afternoon, and he said that he appreciated what Tim Geithner was arranging by way of changes in the discount facility. So my information is different from that.
CHAIRMAN BERNANKE. Okay. Thank you. Go ahead, Vice Chairman Geithner.
VICE CHAIRMAN GEITHNER. Well, I cannot speak for Ken Lewis, but I think they have sought to see whether they could understand a little more clearly the scope of their rights and our current policy with respect to the window. The only thing I've done is to try to help them understand—and I'm sure that's been true across the System—what the scope of that is because these people generally don't use the window and they don't really understand in some sense what it's about.

i think 2 dubs 2 trips and 2 quads every 2 weeks would be managable to clans.

- Prepare cake batter according to package directions; pour into two greased 9-in. square baking pans and two greased muffin cups. Bake the cakes at 350° for 25 minutes and the cupcakes for 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool completely.
- In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips and cream. Microwave on high for 30 seconds or until chips are melted; stir until smooth. Refrigerate for 20 minutes or until cool. Beat on high speed until soft peaks form. Place one cake on covered board; spread with chocolate mixture. Top with remaining cake.
- In a bowl, whisk water, meringue powder and extract until powder is dissolved. Place confectioners' sugar in a large bowl. Add meringue mixture; mix until well blended and a very stiff dough forms, about 1 minute.
- Place 1/4 cup fondant each in two bowls; tint one pink and one green. Place 2 tablespoons in another bowl; tint gold. Place remaining fondant in a bowl; leave white. Cover bowls with plastic wrap when not in use.
- Set aside 2 tablespoons white fondant. On a work surface heavily dusted with confectioners' sugar, roll out remaining white fondant into a 12-in. square. Slide an icing knife between fondant and work surface to loosen; transfer to cake. Smooth sides and corners around cake. Trim any overlapping fondant with a pizza cutter.
- For jar label, shape the reserved white fondant into 2-1/2x1-1/2-in. oval. Shape 1 tablespoon of pink fondant into a 1-3/4x1-in. oval. Place on white oval; set aside.
- For canning jar, cut a thin slice off the top of cupcake. Cut each cupcake in half from top to bottom. Referring to photo at left for position, stack cupcake halves and place cut side down on one side of cake. Shape remaining pink fondant around the three bottom halves; trim. Place label on jar.
- Using a toothpick or thin brush dipped in green food coloring, write "Jam" on the label. For jar lid, shape the gold fondant and place over fourth cupcake; trim. Using a toothpick, press 1/2-in. lines into jar lid.
- Roll out green fondant to 1/8-in. thickness. Using 1-in. alphabet cookie cutters, cut out letters to spell "Recipe". Center near the top of cake. Cut remaining green fondant into 1/8-in.- to 1/4-in. wide strips for recipe card lines. Place on cake next to jar. Cover and refrigerate until serving.

Justin Bieber Claims He's Being Framed
Rather than own up to his reckless behavior and choosing to be accountable for his allegedly irresponsible actions, Justin Bieber is now claiming that he is being framed in relation to two separate incidents with criminal charges pending.
TMZ reports that the teen is adopting an "It wasn't me" defense in two criminal investigations.
With Spitgate, his fate remains up in the air. The L.A. County District Attorney is deliberating whether or not to prosecute The Biebs for spitting in a neighbor's face and threatening bodily harm after said neighbor complained about the teen using local streets as his own personal racetrack for a Ferrari.
Da Biebs' camp says it has a witness who is willing to testify under oath -- which has serious legal ramifications and consequences if they don't tell the truth -- that the singer did not spew saliva. The D.A. wants to chat with this witness before deciding whether to move forward with charges.
However, further mucking up the case is the fact that authorities have two witnesses -- the victim and someone else -- who saw Biebs spit.
Pertaining to the second (and new) case, where he was again operating his Ferrari in dangerous fashion on residential streets, his people are quietly suggesting that it was not Le Biebs who was driving. Maybe they will suggest it was his pal Lil Twist, who has gotten into quite a bit of trouble when operating Bieber vehicles. He can take one for the team.
But there is a caveat, as multiple witnesses say that they saw Bieber behind the wheel.
The singer's mentor Usher spoke out on 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show' about his recent run of bad behavior, sticking up for him and getting his back. Ush chalked things up to the fact that Biebs is a teen.
"And I think all of us in some way have humble beginnings that pan out to be incredible," Usher tells Ellen. "And we hope that in his transition as friends and family who has helped him be who he is, that he'll continue to just mature. But you know in this day's age of social media, there is no privacy -- and that kind of trail and elimination period is kind of done in front of a camera."
He also noted, "It's been done and many, many other celebrities are product of it and some come out bad and some come out good. I am hoping for the best. I don't look at as a negative though. I look at it as a teenager. A teenager having to live his life in front of a camera. Imagine if you had to do that as a teenager. Imagine if there was a camera there, when you were a teenager?"
Those are good points, Ush.
Overall, though, The Biebs is pointing a lot of fingers. With witnesses claiming they saw him commit these offenses, and the fact that where there are plumes of smoke, there is usually a blaze, make this defense have more holes than a slice of Swiss cheese. Sorry, broseph!
Here's the PopCrush RX for our lil' Biebs: Lawyer up. Man up. Claim responsibility. Apologize. Start driving safely. End. Of. Story.

Mine did not turn out exactly like the picture. Everyone still liked it. I would like directions like some others did. Is this possible? I like doing things like this. So nice and makes the occasion feel special.
Nov 28, 2014
Unless you have a sense of design stay away from this feat. There are directions what to buy but no direction how to put what where. The cost of the Styrofoam and everything else needed was so high that the next time I will buy a ready made centerpiece. Yes, it was beautiful once it was put together,by the right person but that person was not me.
Jul 28, 2014
This looks beautiful and I want to make it for our daughter's 40th birthday laua surprise party. Can anyone suggest or tell me what they use for the base tray? Thinking of an oven rack, it's larger, but don't know what else I have around. Thanks!
Apr 10, 2014
Everyone loves this centerpiece. I have made this on several occasions. I placed it next to chocolate fountain. Just keep an eye on children.
Jul 30, 2013
This fabulous centerpiece is always impressive! Our 4-H club has done this centerpiece twice for our town's luncheon for seniors and they've loved it both times.We've found that sometimes buying the styrofoam can be expensive and have learned to ask around for clean packing pieces folks might have. Everything gets covered well in aluminum foil anyway.We've also found that just flavored yogurt makes a good dip if you are in a hurry.Label any dips if possible - people appreciate the information.This recipe is highly recommended!

I love, love, love this centerpiece. I needed it to serve 100+ for a church brunch. I made it on a large mirror and include bowls of blueberries, raspberries,blackberries, and cherries. I used blackeyed susans and red roses with alternating red and yellow napkins. it was a real show stopper. Thanks for planting the idea. More centerpiece ideas, please.

I made this for a Pastor's Table turned out nice. I too would like to see it before fruit because I kinda assembled it my way when it came to dowels.
Dec 25, 2010
Wonderful! Easy to do although the fruit gets a bit expensive. Someone asked about the dowels, where they go, but they can actually be left out. Just secure the styrofoam discs together with greening pins. This was a great hit for my Christmas party. Everyone wants the recipe.
Oct 17, 2010
How do the two dowels stabilize the stacks? Need instructions where and how to place them.
Sep 16, 2010
I have made this centerpiece for many different occasions. and each time was a hit. very easy but, takes alot of time .

BLUET DAMSEL (a lesson in tying an off body fly)
If you?ve never tied an ?off body fly? I hope you?ll find this article interesting and informative. I?ve chosen this damsel pattern because it pretty straight forward and one the tier can have a reasonable degree of success with when just starting out.*Many of the hex patterns I tie also call for ?off body tails? because of the large size of the flies and the pursuit of imitations that look real.

It wasn't a chain gang. But that was the message University of California students sought to convey as they showed up in orange prison garb, complaining to UC Regents that they were "sentenced to debt" due to ever-rising tuition.
The Regents, gathered in a rare Sacramento meeting near the state Capitol on Wednesday, were forced to temporarily suspend their open meeting and retreat behind closed doors for a time, as students engaged in a loud and sustained chant.
The police presence at the Sacramento Convention Center was heavy.
U.S. & World
Wednesday's protest comes just two days, of course, after Gov. Jerry Brown proposed a $38 million cut to the UC system.
That cut would climb by another $250 million if voters turn thumbs down to a temporary tax package initiative in November.
This is all part of the annual budget ritual. But students appeared anxious to kick off what will be a long month of protests leading up the deadline for passing a budget in mid-June.
It's likely that the university's governing board will vote in July on a six percent tuition hike.
That's in addition to an 18 percent boost last year. University officials say the increases may be unavoidable. But that would be easier to believe, critics note, if they weren't also making expensive hiring decisions.
The new chancellor at UC San Diego, Pradeep Khosla, will be paid an annual salary of $411,00, in addition to benefits.

They're trapped in a tiny bowl, dependent on you to toss them a handful of dried shrimp from time to time, and now with this glass LED-illuminated globe bowl they're going to be forced into an underwater rave every time the lights go off. Still, this little $50 half gallon bowl is pretty cool looking, even if it does tease the fish with a map of their native habitat (oceans and lakes) whenever you hit the switch. Any aquarium pros out there know if LED's are the proper lighting for fish? [Wrapables via Nerd Approved]

Movies We Like
A fantastical adaptation of Emile Zola's Therese Raquin. Not that I've ever read any Zola, mind you, but I've read about him. Maybe after I've finished working my way through the entire output of the 19th century Russian realists, I'll be ready. If only Zola had featured more vampires in his stories...Well, Chan-Wook Park knows how to get me interested in realism, at least -- same as the Russians -- with ideological discussions of atheism.
Sang-hyeon (Kang-ho Song) is a Catholic priest with a martyr complex or strong death drive (amounts to the same thing, I suppose), who plays guinea pig in a macabre experiment to help doctors find a cure for a virus that's particularly dangerous to Korean men. He's the only one to survive the voluntary infection due to a transfusion using vampire blood. The catch is that he now needs to feed on normal human blood to keep from sweating his own and breaking out in disfiguring boils. Initially, he's racked by guilt over his bodily urges, which leads to his sucking on a comatose patient's IV and a fellow priest, Noh (In-hwan Park), with a more sanguine attitude about the vampire virus. Sang-hyeon sees vampirism as a loss of humanity, Noh as a gift, a potential cure for his blindness. Due to his miracle cure, the vampire picks up a religious following of Catholics who see him as another messiah, parallel to that other popular tale of transfiguration. Is he a vampire who walks like a man, or man who acts like a vampire?
Despite the similarities, Thirst doesn't belong to the "vegetarian" vampirism that Buffy made popular and can now be seen in Twilight. It was easy to sympathize with Buffy's beau, because when Angel did evil deeds, it was as the soulless Angelus, who constituted a separate identity (even if the two entities shared the same body and memories, they certainly had no control over what the other did). There's no identity switcheroo in Twilight, but the good vampire Edward is able to survive on animal blood (what's called a 'carouche'). Angel was capable of that, too, having lived on rats for many years after regaining his soul. Furthermore, the two diegesis share a supernaturally enforced Victorian restraint, since the vampires get real thirsty for their lovers when sex is involved. Taking blood and sex out of the equation pretty much makes hash out of vampires, since they're reduced to a more pathetic version of us, but with superpowers. Instead, Park's film is closer in its themes to another vampire show that sometimes gets lumped into the vegetarian subgenre, True Blood.
Maybe because it's on HBO or because it's not written by a Mormon, but True Blood manages to defang the mythology without violating it (although the ham-fisted erotic dialog comes close). Here vampires keep their sanguinary sexual desires, are responsible for previous slaughters, and have to choose to live off of synthetic human blood (like only shopping the frozen food aisle). Making a somewhat analogous case to Peter Singer's animal rights argument: Southern gentleman/vampire Bill Compton has come to view humans as deserving of the same rights as his own kind, since we're capable of the same feelings as he, if not more so. Whereas True Blood's moral questioning is basically utilitarian, Thirst's is faith-based. The divine image has been transmogrified into a distorted mirror, so is Sang-hyeon still obligated to God's favored creature? If the vampire is nothing more than pure carnality, then its moral status is that of all the other animals not given the lead in the story of Eden. Scorpions, for example, aren't being immoral when they strike.
Thirst's vampiric version of the 19th century nihilist is Tae-joo (Ok-vin Kim), an orphaned girl who came under the care of the domineering Lady Ra (Hae-sook Kim) and her spoiled, sickly boy, Kang-woo (Ha-kyun Shin). Rather than being raised as the boy's adopted sister, Tae-joo became his caretaker and wife. Sang-hyeon was a childhood friend to the family and, post-transformation, meets up with them again when Ra comes begging for a miracle to cure her son. Between games of mah-jongg with the family and friends, the priest and the wife begin to slip away for bouts of hedonism that's erotic in a way the metalhead couple making out in a mall could appreciate. Based on how she grew up, Tae-joo doesn't see much that's special in humanity, so wants nothing more than to leave it all behind by being turned. After a series of sinful events, including the plan to kill Kang-woo, Sang-hyeon grants her the salvation she desires. That's when he discovers that some vampires are more Darwinian than others. She's pure survival-of-the-fittest with nothing filling up the hole of faith. Humans are reduced to the status of actors -- that is, cattle -- and she's the only director that matters. Feeling himself drawn to the abyss, with his monstrous status of being nothing but an animal, only with the ungodly power to upset the divine hierarchy, Sang-hyeon can see no other moral choice than self-immolation -- and, thus, the movie's central conflict. Obviously, the couple hasn't read much utilitarianism or other atheistic moral philosophies. They might've discovered with Bill that there's more of a connection to humanity than the forced choice between nihilism and theistic middle-management allows.

|Mountain View Cemetery, West Hazleton, PA
I like sharing tombstone photos on my blog, as well as on other sites like FindAGrave.com because I know how important they can be in research, so it was only natural for me to do a Tombstone Tuesday post, but on who?
In the end I decided to do one on someone that wasn't even a member of my family. Her name was Jane Rich, but she was known to my mom, aunt and uncle, as "Aunt Jane". At some point, Jane began living with my great aunt Marian Brown so "Aunt Jane" she became and she outlived my great aunt Marian by about 13 years.
I didn't even know where "Aunt Jane" was buried when my mom and I went cemetery hopping this summer. I had grabbed some flowers from the local Lowe's to put by the tombstones and we were off to Mountain View Cemetery in West Hazleton, PA to place flowers by my grandparents, Clarence and Florence Tabor nee Bronsavage's, grave. The conversation in the car was about Aunt Marian and "Aunt Jane". I was seeking clarification on who exactly Jane Rich was and as my mom was talking about her we looked to the right of the road and saw a tall family marker with "Rich" on it. We stopped the car and got out and wouldn't you know we were standing there looking at Jane's gravesite. I, naturally, had to take a picture or her stone (as well as the stones nearby).
I don't know much about "Aunt Jane" but a quick search tells me that she was the daughter to J. William and Edith Rich nee Morris. She was the oldest of three known children of William and Edith, a younger brother named Harry (who was in the 1920 census, but missing from the 1930 census and may have died) and a sister, Harriett who would have been born a year or two after Harry was born. Her tombstone tells me that she was born in 1908 and died in 1965.
Other information that I discovered (and I will have to verify this when I get back home in reach of additional resources and records) is that Jane most likely studied at Pennsylvania State University and majored in Home Economics. She was a member of the Chi Omega sorority (both details I discovered in Penn State's 1930 yearbook "La Vie")
We think that after Aunt Marian died that "Aunt Jane" ended up with most if not all of Aunt Marian's belongings. Oh how we'd love to have some of those photos that are most likely never to be found! One in particular was of Aunt Marian in a beautiful dress leaning against a piano. It would be a happy day in my family if we ever found that photo! Here's hoping that someday we'll be able to track down that photo!

Android Quietly Commits to Better Support for Bluetooth
At nearly three and a half hours, you'd think Google would have been able to get all the news into its I/O keynote address on Wednesday.
But a few announcements missed the cut.
One of the more interesting was a commitment by Google to support advanced Bluetooth natively in its Android operating system. Google had supported basic Bluetooth for specific things like keyboards and headphones, but had yet to build in support for the latest version of the wireless technology.
The new move opens up opportunities for a range of new accessories, including very low-power devices.
"I think that opportunity is actually going to be huge," said Steve Hegenderfer, director of developer relations for the group that oversees the Bluetooth specification. Hegenderfer said that Bluetooth devices have gotten so small that the batteries are sometimes the largest component.
But with support for low energy, Hegenderfer said he expects a wave of devices to hit the market in the next year that are powered by kinetic energy — basically, the energy created by a body in motion.
Google's move will allow those developing such devices for iOS to offer the same products more easily on Android.
Apple already supports the latest version of Bluetooth, as does BlackBerry with BlackBerry 10 and Microsoft with Windows 8 (though not, as yet, with Windows Phone 8).
The lack of Android support has been a sore spot for developers because it makes an already fragmented hardware landscape even more challenging. Nearly all the devices shipping today have chips that support the latest version of Bluetooth, but until Google's move, developers didn't have a unified way to call on the Bluetooth functions.
Instead, developers had to tweak their code not only for particular versions of Android but also based on which Bluetooth chip was in use.
While Google announced its plans on Wednesday, support for the new Bluetooth won't come immediately. It is due to arrive in a month or two, with the next update to the Android programming interfaces.
