A word from Surfing Magazine Editor, Travis Ferré
A FEW MONTHS AGO ANDY IRONS WAS ON THE COVER OF THIS VERY MAGAZINE THRASHING OUT ONE OF HIS PATENTED FOREHAND CARVES [OCT 2010] . It was the most feel-good cover we've ever had the pleasure to send you. The timing of it. The turn. The moment. It was all really powerful to our staff and it's what led to me having the opportunity to meet Andy a few weeks later at the cover launch party for that issue.
The moment we got the image, the office was buzzing. "How sick is that Andy turn?" "So sick!" we all agreed over and over. It wasn't even a question. Put it on the cover. We hit play on our favorite Andy sections at the office all month — everything from Raw Irons to his latest part in High Five and everything he did in between. Momentum: UTI. Campaign. 5'5" x 19 1/4". The Blueprint. Still Filthy. Trilogy. Blue Horizon. It was the most fired up we've been in a long time. On surfing. On magazines. On video parts. On life, really.
We faced something very different this month. After sending this issue to print, we were hit with the saddest news the surf world has ever dealt with: We lost Andy Irons. It was devastating, surreal and sad. It was not news we wanted to deliver. We've had too much fun with Andy, enjoyed too many incredible moments to lay that on you. So our first instinct was to start remembering. We poured through our photo and video vaults and what came back was a flood of moments that have come to define us all.
He surfed with moxie; he surfed like Charlie Parker playing sax with Guns N' Roses, just overflowing with spontaneity and energy and power.
I remember how he always made it so easy to get excited. His surfing was so emotional and passionate you couldn't help but feel psyched when you watched him. He surfed with moxie; he surfed like Charlie Parker playing sax with Guns N' Roses, just overflowing with spontaneity and energy and power. I always loved his forehand grab-rail reverses, and the way he used his front foot to navigate; how he'd flow and link turns together and how he'd hold his arms and say what he felt as opposed to just muttering another mundane sound bite. Remember when he said he wanted to crush Kelly's pretty picture? Passion! He just couldn't help himself. Much the same way I can't help but remind everyone I know of all the seemingly minute details about why he was my favorite surfer. I'll always love him for that. It's funny how the nitty-gritty details of style and approach can fascinate us as surfers, but Andy is one of the reasons why. He had the ability to leave an impression that would stick with you. His enthusiasm for surfing and life was visible on every wave he rode and in every word he uttered.
This is our Movie Issue. A look forward to some surf films you'll be seeing over the next year. But as you may know by now, we were able to do a last-minute-run of commemorative covers dedicated to Andy (which you'll find on newsstands). For it we chose another timeless A.I. moment from our archive and hope you'll add it to your shrine. It's one of thousands on file, but one we feel captures Andy's zest for life and surfing. It was shot during what is widely considered one of his most inspired sessions of all time, one you can see in Chris Malloy's film, One Track Mind. So with this being our Movie Issue, and as we all mourn for our fallen hero, we hope you've all had a chance to settle in and remember your own favorite Andy moments. And while it's tragic to think we don't have him here anymore, he has left us with a vault of memories and inspiration that will keep him more than immortal to surfers around the world until the end of time. Thank you Andy, for everything. We miss you so much. —Travis Ferré

Commerce City — A thunderstorm that brought heavy rain to Dick's Sporting Goods Park delayed the start of the Rapids game against FC Dallas. The game is now scheduled to start at 7:30 p.m.
Spectators were advised to take cover because of lightning in the area. At 7 p.m., rainfall at the stadium was light but the sky looked menacing, and periodic thunder can be heard overhead.

A company contracted by Nasa to deliver supplies to the International Space Station has successfully launched a rocket in a test of its ability to send a cargo ship into space.
The unmanned Antares rocket blasted off from Wallops Island on Virginia's Eastern Shore. About 10 minutes after the launch, Orbital Sciences Corp of Dulles declared the test a success after observing a practice payload reach orbit and safely separate from the rocket.
The suburban Washington DC company is aiming to launch a rocket carrying its Cygnus cargo ship this summer to dock with the station. If successful, Orbital aims to make the first of eight contracted deliveries in the autumn.
Nasa is using two companies to deliver space station supplies after ending its shuttle programme in 2011. California-based SpaceX completed its third trip to the International Space Station last month.

I play a game called DragonSky merge and idle (or something like this). The basic premise of the early game is that dragons will spawn, and will be fused in pairs. You continue to fuse these until you have a level $10$ dragon.
Let me be precise. Let $\{D_1,D_2,\dots, D_{10}\}$ denote the set of ...
$ xRy$ iff $x^2 -y^2 = x-y$ is relation we have defined over $\mathbb{R} $
I have shown this is equivalence relation.
Now we have asked to find equivalence class of 3 which can be found out to be -2 and 3 .
Also next we need to find equivalence class of general x which turn out out to be 1-x...
Given $$g(x) = e^{-|x-x_0|/\alpha} + Ae^{-x/\alpha} + Be^{x/\alpha}$$
$\alpha >0$, $x_0 \in (0,1)$
Constraints are $$g(0) = g(1)$$ and $$g'(0) = g'(1)$$
Solve for $A$ and $B$.
My solution : $$A = \frac{e^{(x_0-1)/\alpha}}{1-e^{(-1/\alpha)}}$$ and
$$B = \frac{e^{-x_0/\alpha}}{e^{1/\alpha}-1}$$...
I have to find the limit of following
$$\lim_{x \to 0}\left(\frac{1}{x} - \frac{1}{x^2}\right)$$
I have no idea how to start this one off.
How would I do it?
Do I just substitute the $0$? It doesn't look that easy and simple. The answer says it's negative infinity.
Please show me a solution w...

THE great entertainer, Jack Buchanan, was born on April 2 1890 in Helensburgh and died on October 20 1957 in London.
A major UK musical comedy, revue and film star, choreographer, director, producer and manager with a disarming, casual style, Buchanan's career spanned 40 years.
It all started in the family home, Garthland in West Argyle Street, just along the road from his childhood friend John Logie Baird — who at one time rigged up a telephone between the two houses, until it was insisted that the cable had to be taken down.
In his bedroom at Garthland (pictured below) there was an alcove at the window, and he used the curtains as if it were a little stage to perform for his family and friends.
He played in amateur dramatics and local music halls before moving to London to work as an understudy and chorus boy.
Rejected for military service at the start of World War One because of poor health, he taught himself to dance, and played a leading role in the touring version of the West End hit musical comedy Tonight's The Night in 1915.
His big break came two years later when he took over from Jack Hulbert in producer Andrew Charlot's revue Bubbly, followed by another Charlot show, A To Z, in 1921.
In the latter Buchanan sang one of his all-time hits, "And Her Mother Came Too", with Ivor Novello's music and a lyric by Dion Titheradge. Also in the cast were Beatrice Lillie and a young Gertrude Lawrence.
After branching out into management with the musical farce Battling Butler at the New Oxford Theatre, Buchanan went to New York with Lillie and Lawrence to appear in Charlot's Revue Of 1924 at the Times Square Theater.
Buchanan was a substantial success on Broadway, and returned in 1926 with another Charlot revue in which he duetted with Lawrence on "A Cup Of Coffee, A Sandwich, And You". The recording reached number 5 in the chart and was his only US hit. Back in London in 1926 he was at his peak in Jerome Kern's Sunny.
In 1931 he was doing a season at the Alhambra in Glasgow, called "Stand up and Sing", according to the Helensburgh and Gareloch Times of January 14 1931.
With Elsie Randolph as his regular leading lady, he appeared in dancing musicals such as That's A Good Girl, Mr Whittington, This'll Make You Whistle, and their last show together in 1943, It's Time To Dance.
He also went back to New York for Wake Up And Dream! with Jessie Matthews, and Between The Devil with Evelyn Laye.
Songs such as "Who", "Goodnight Vienna", "I Think I Can", "There's Always Tomorrow", "Fancy Our Meeting", "Sweet So And So", "Weep No More My Baby", "By Myself" and "I'm In A Dancing Mood", were delivered in a seemingly fragile, "typically English" style.
In his show Stand Up And Sing at the London Hippodrome in 1931, a very young Anna Neagle was discovered by film producer Herbert Wilcox, who started her on the road to a long and distinguished film career by putting her into the Buchanan film Goodnight Vienna.
In 1936 it was reported that Jack was going to start his own film company 'Jack Buchanan Productions', and work was going to start on his first film, at Pinewood studios, later in the year.
Buchanan's own film career proper started in 1917 with the silent Auld Lang Syne — he had previously worked as an extra — and included a series of comedies, light dramas and farces such as Yes, Mr Brown, Brewster's Millions and The Gang's All Here.
His first movie musical was Paris, with Corsican actress/singer Irene Bordoni, and he made several more including Monte Carlo, directed by Ernst Lubitsch, and co-starring Jeanette MacDonald, plus a few celluloid transfers of his hit stage productions.
In 1953, the top UK and US song-and-dance men met in The Band Wagon. Buchanan and Fred Astaire's duet, "I Guess I'll Have To Change My Plan", and their clever version, with Nanette Fabray, of "Triplets" fame, made this one of MGM's most acclaimed musical films, and the pinnacle of Buchanan's career.

Hot Harry will always love Chelsy
Here's Prince Harry on Saturday night leaving a club almost like he's forcing them to send him back to Afghanistan. Let me go, or I will piss away all the goodwill I've accumulated by getting drunk every night and doing nothing better with my life.
The night before, Harry and Chelsy Davy were both at Princess Eugenie's birthday party. According to UK gossips, they were rather close and seemed super happy to see each other and he's been wearing a pendant she gave him so this might mean they're back together but no one is really sure.
It doesn't matter if they're officially back together or not. I'm telling you, Chelsy is Harry's Camilla. He will always love her. He will always love that she didn't want the life he could give her. Yes, yes, Chelsy looked really sh-t at Will and Kate's wedding. But Chelsy also surprises in ways Kate never will.
Maybe she'll change her mind when Harry Dear Johns her from the battlefield. But I'll be dead by the time they release the letters to the Royal Archives. F-ck.

Selection of proper truck tire gives a comfortable ride and reduces the wear and tear on the tire drive mechanism, brakes and suspension parts. Cheap Winter Tires in Brakpan many factors determine the selection of suitable type of tire.

Cheap Winter Tires in Brakpan ?
There are many different types of car tyres. The one you choose will depend on factors such as the make of car, driving style, where you live, the time of year and how your car is used.
For instance if you spend a lot of your working day driving up and down the motorways, you will need a hard wearing tyre that doesn't create a lot of noise. If you live in the countryside a tyre that provides better grip on muddy roads would be more suitable.
This article identifies five different types of car tyres and highlights some of the differences between them:
1) Standard/ All Season Tyre
Your car was probably driven out of the factory on all season tyres. It is an average tyre that is suitable for all year round use. It works equally well in the wet and the dry.
The tread block pattern is designed not to be noisy when used on standard roads but enables adequate water dispersion to provide grip in wet conditions.
Mud tyres are an extreme type of all terrain tyres, designed to be used in mud and dirt. They have very large tread block patterns that are only suitable for driving on that type of terrain.
5) Run Flat Tyres
Run flat tyres are a relatively new concept but are now becoming more common on new cars. They are designed to minimise the loss of handling that occurs after a puncture.
The car tyre can operate without air to enable the vehicle to continue to be driven. However this is only suitable for a short distance and at a reduced speed, until the tyre can be safely changed.
For further advice consult a car tyre specialist who will provide you with impartial advice on the best tyres for your vehicle.
Car Tires Are Not Just Rubber
Choosing the perfect 4x4 truck tires can be very exhausting and confusing because there are a lot of factors to consider in doing so. 4x4 truck tires will not only make your truck look good, you also have to ensure its safety on the road. You also have to compare prices, special features, and compatibility when choosing the best tires in the market.The first thing you have to do is review the truck's manual. Check its tire requirements and class. If you do not have the manual, check the inside of the driver's door. It should also have the requirements listed there. If you still can not find it, you can approach a representative from the company you bought your truck from. They would be able to provide you with information about your vehicle's specifications.Check the market for reliable brands of tires and check their customer reviews. Ratings and comments should be available so that you can compare the best tires to purchase. It should rate high with regards to safety as this is the main concern when it comes to choosing tires for your truck. Unsafe tires can be a matter of life and death.The kind of roads and weather you travel on are also important. There are certain ranges of treads when it comes to choosing tires. Street treads are those that usually travel on streets and highways while mud treads means travelling on snow, mud, and rocky terrains. You can ask a tire salesperson about anything you need to know about safety and warranty. Warranty is very important. The tire you plan to buy should have a good warranty just in case something wrong happens to the tires after purchasing them.Check the 4x4 truck tires for markings about when it was manufactured. It should be recently produced to get the best in performance. The marking usually consists of four digits pertaining to the number of week of the year and the year itself. For example, if it says 4110, it means that it was manufactured on the 41st week of the year 2010. Prices are the most obvious factor to consider in buying 4x4 truck tires. Compare prices as thoroughly as you can to get the best deal possible. Opt for newer tires instead of used tires as they last longer and better on the road before it breaks down naturally on the road.
Car tires check is an imperative part of automotive inspection in ensuring your safety on the road. Basically for tires, the most common thing to do is to always make sure the tires have adequate and proper amount of air pressure. The tire pressure must be checked when the tire is cold as pressure is affected by temperature. The air temperature inside the tire is increased while driving and causes the tire to expand. A low tire pressure is more dangerous than a little higher pressure because the former makes the tire more susceptible to wear thus presenting the need for replacement. Additionally, when the tire is soft, the car uses more fuel.
The wheels and the tires too should be well balanced. A common procedure is to rotate the tires on a regular basis for an even wearing and to maximize the usability of the tires. If you notice that there is vibration when you are steering the vehicle's wheel while driving, it is an indication that the wheels and tires needs balancing. balancing is especially essential when the tire is new. Not only is steering affected by unbalanced tires and wheels but also the suspension system of the vehicle.
Tires have a certain amount of load that it can carry. When you put too much stuff in the vehicle, it also affects the condition of the tire. When there is excessive load in the car, the tire is possible to come off the rim when the car tries to turn in the road corner. Each vehicle has its appropriate type of tire to be used so depending on the possible loading on that particular vehicle.

SEATTLE — In 72 hours, more than 150 homeless men, women and children have to pack up their belongings and find a new place to live.
For more than two years Nickelsville has been the city's homeless encampment, but it's closing Sunday.
One of the relocation sites sits in the Central District. It has 12,000 square feet of space, enough to hold about 30 tents.
Organizers already have their eyes on several additional sites in the city, but most residents had no idea they're about to get a new neighbor. Resident's reactions to the move was mixed.
"I don't think it's safe for us to live with the homeless who are strangers," Central District resident Atifa Kilal said.
Ajax Wood disagreed and said he supports the move.
"I think it's great," Wood said. "I mean, it ain't cool there's homeless people, but let's do what we can."
Violeta Quiroz lives directly behind the location of the Central District site, and she worries about her soon-to-be neighbors. "They could be friendly or not — we don't know," she said. "We're taking the risk here."
The lot near 20th Avenue South and South Jackson Street isn't going to be vacant for much longer. A local church is partnering with the Low Income Housing Institute which owns the property. They are giving at least some of Nickelsville's displaced residents somewhere to go.
"It's sort of horrifying that you can have such a wealthy city like Seattle and still be living in a tent," Sharon Lee, executive director of the Low Income Housing Institute, said. "It's better to be living in a tent in a community with other people than to be on your own."
Nickelsville has been home to more than 150 people and the people there, for a variety of reasons, don't have a lot of other housing options.
"It just happens, it's just people," Kara Serwatka said. Serwtka is homeless and lives in the tent city. "It's not always of your doing."
Truby McDowell recently moved in to Nickelsville. Now she and her six kids have pack up again.
"It's very difficult especially with the kids. I have kids from 18 months to 11 (years old) so it's very hard," McDowell said.
Once it became clear the city was serious about the Sept. 1 deadline to shut Nickelsville down, the Low Income Housing Institute and local churches stepped up.
"They're going to be providing counseling, food, they're going to provide back-to-school backpacks and supplies for children," Lee said.
At the Central District location, only families with children will be allowed. No drugs, alcohol, or guns will be permitted and there will be 24-hour security at the lot.
Folks from Nickelsville said they're working to finalize plans on two more campsites in the city and plan to release the locations of those sites Friday.

One of the two new surveillance cameras donated to the Richmond Police Department by 4RICHMOND...
RICHMOND -- The 23rd Street corridor is a bustling commercial hub, with restaurants, clothing stores, markets, auto shops and other businesses.
It's also a district that has been plagued with persistent crime.
Now, the Richmond Police Department has new eyes on one of the city's prized districts.
Business leaders and police have partnered to expand the city's camera surveillance program on 23rd Street, hoping that new cameras will drive down crime and help the corridor flourish.
"There was a need for cameras on 23rd Street," said Rafael Madrigal, president of the district's merchants association. "We need to foster continued commercial growth."
New closed-circuit security cameras will be installed on the corridor by the end of the year, the 23rd Street Merchants Association, the Richmond Police Department and the 4Richmond Coalition announced last week.
Three cameras were donated by the Chevron Richmond Refinery, and the city chipped in another three cameras as part of the project.
Two are already in place, and the 4Richmond Coalition will help install the four additional cameras by working with the Environmental Initiatives Division of the City Manager's Office, along with the Engineering Department and the Richmond police, said 4Richmond spokesman Karl Fischer.
The cameras join a network of 40 others operated by the police department and monitored 24 hours a day by retired Richmond police officers working as civilian employees.
The Chevron donation amounts to about $25,000.
The 4Richmond Coalition is a nonprofit organization formed this year that includes representatives from labor unions, businesses and residents. In its mission statement, the coalition says it is "dedicated to creating a healthier, safer and more prosperous Richmond" by focusing on jobs, public health and safety and education.
Although the steering committee and leadership team include officials from the West Contra Costa School District, Richmond Chamber of Commerce and police union, 4Richmond's funding is primarily provided by Chevron.
In early November, 4Richmond funded a trip for 500 Richmond students to visit "Discovery Days at AT&T Park," an exhibition and science festival in San Francisco. Over the summer, the coalition hosted several days of symposium-type conferences involving business and public sector leaders to discuss issues important to the city.
4Richmond Chairman Don Lau, vice president of the West Contra Costa County YMCA, said the group is apolitical and dedicated to improving the city.
"We're all about improving the quality of life in Richmond," Lau said. "We are not choosing (political) sides, we are choosing issues that are important to the city."
Richmond Councilman Tom Butt, a frequent Chevron critic, said he was pleased that 4Richmond helped the city get new cameras on 23rd Street but scoffed at the notion that the organization was anything other than a "Chevron operation."
"My goal is to get as much Chevron money into this community as possible for good causes, so I am not complaining," he said.
Councilman Nat Bates, recently re-elected with the help of more than $1.2 million Chevron funneled into the November election to support some candidates and oppose others, said he welcomed 4Richmond's rise.
Bates said the coalition could be not just a philanthropic force, but a "watchdog" that could "counter" the direction of City Hall, which has been led in recent years by progressives who take a hard-line against the oil giant.
"I expect this new group to be active," Bates said. "It's a welcome change because the Richmond Progressive Alliance has been riding roughshod on businesses and the community."
Meanwhile, the new cameras will be an asset to public safety, said Richmond Police Capt. Mark Gagan. He said that while violent crime continues to trend down in the city, it's important to maintain that momentum.
"We can't have a cop on every street corner," Gagan said. "Technology is not the sole solution, but it allows us to be more efficient, and we are able to do this thanks to the value of partnering with businesses."

It was time for my watch, so I dragged myself out of "bed", pulled on some foulies, donned the PFD, and climbed up the companionway, ready to tether on for another three hours of sailing. As my head popped up, all I saw was a dim green glow from the compass. I assumed that the shape behind the glow was a person but where was everything else? I didn't think to turn off the flash on my camera and take a picture so I did an artist's interpretation of the scene in the cockpit on this dark night:
That is not an exaggeration. We knew that there was going to be no moon for many of these nights but what we didn't expect was that a four mile deep layer of clouds was going to cover the Pacific. No light could get through even if it wanted to.
So how do you sail when you can't see the sails, the waves, the wheel, or your precious mug of hot chocolate? You do it by feel and let all of those hours of practice with the blast shield on (gratuitous Star Wars reference) allow you to feel the force.
Let me set the stage for this night, one of the greatest 3 hours of sailing I ever did. We had about 20-25 knots directly on the beam and based on what the swells were like the last time I was able to see them about 8-10 foot swells, with some bigger sets every once in a while. We had the main, staysail and genoa all up and pulling; I can only assume they were filled. And it was dark. And noisy.
I was steering by compass though I guess I could have done it by wind direction too, but the heading was most important. The boat was blasting along at 9 knots, leaving a ferocious wake as we went up and down these swells. I wish I could tell you where they were coming from but I have no idea, there must have been some sort of cross swell because it felt completely random.
I could hold the course for minutes at a time and then without warning (because, you know, I couldn't see a damned thing) a swell would come along and push our canoe shaped boat higher. I'd have a split second to adjust and then bring the boat back on course as the speed picked up and our bow wake hit our stern wake and buried the leeward rail right to the cockpit coaming. This is known because my watch partner was sitting there!
The sailing was brilliant. It was fast and done completely by feel. The wind angle was perfect for staying on course and I'm pretty sure it made all of us better sailors. Heck, we might as well have been sailing blindfolded.
And, that's the cool thing. You know how they say when you lose one sense that the other 4 senses get more acute? Well, in this case, my hearing picked up. I could hear the waves, the wind, and the sound of the boat through the water. I swear I could hear the boat turning before I could feel it. And it was loud...20+ knots of wind, 26,000 pounds of water being displaced at 9 knots of boat speed, and the wake rushing over the rail...it sounded like we were an unstoppable force. And, thankfully, there were no immovable objects in the way because we would not have seen it.
The only description I have is a freight train....it sounded like we were just an out of control freight train tearing through the Pacific Ocean. The feeling of connectedness I got with VALIS during those pitch black watches and the beam reachy one in particular was fantastic and helped through most of the rest of the trip.
I'll never forget what it was like to sail blind like that. Though to help out the rest of the world who wasn't lucky enough to have been on board that night I started the design of a great iPhone app. The screen shows a dim green compass and four dim red instruments that have no bearing at all on the game. Your goal is to keep the compass pointing at 270 by using the accelerometer in the iPhone and gently rocking it back and forth. The problem is that the inputs to make the needle swing make absolutely no sense and you have no idea which way it is going to swing next. All you can do is correct and hope you don't over correct. It will probably have a cacophony of weird boat noises and wind and water sound. And if you can get a friend to shoot a water cannon at you periodically that would help with the realism.
Oh, and do it in a dark closet.

text: Updated 2016 It's a good thing that nature knows no boundaries. Swaziland gets the same wildlife and ecosystems as the rest of South Africa, and, despite being the smallest country on the continent, it draws enough of South Africa's tourists that it is able to successfully augment its economy. Maybe that's why the people there are so happy and friendly. Swaziland's forethought on behalf of its wildlife has left it with impressive national parks full of elephants, giraffes, hippos, as well as a few animals that we don't even know the names of.

I use a QKW action to close the frontmost window in any application. But unless I am very quick in entering the keystroke to trigger it, QK repeats it--this time trying to close the next window that is still open. (I could make the computer's "repeat delay" for keys very long; but that would cause worse problems.) I apparently need a way to make QKW ignore further inputs from the keyboard for a time (such as 1 second) after the action or sequence has been triggered.
I have tried adding waits of up to 5 seconds, or even more, in a QKW sequence below the command line that closes the frontmost window, but that does no good--the "close window" sequence is executed again almost instantly after the frontmost window closes. Is there any way to do what I'm trying to do?

For most adults, moderate alcohol use is probably not harmful. However, about 18 million adult Americans have an alcohol use disorder (AUD). This means that their drinking causes distress and harm. It includes alcoholism and alcohol abuse.
Alcoholism, or alcohol dependence, is a disease that causes
With alcohol abuse, you are not physically dependent, but you still have a serious problem. The drinking may cause problems at home, work, or school. It may cause you to put yourself in dangerous situations, or lead to legal or social problems.
Another common problem is binge drinking. It is drinking about five or more drinks in two hours for men. For women, it is about four or more drinks in two hours.
Too much alcohol is dangerous. Heavy drinking can increase the risk of certain cancers. It can cause damage to the liver, brain, and other organs. Drinking during pregnancy can harm your baby. Alcohol also increases the risk of death from car crashes, injuries, homicide, and suicide.
You may have an AUD if you can answer yes to two or more of these questions:
In the past year, have you
If you have any of these symptoms, your drinking may already be a cause for concern. The more symptoms you have, the more serious the problem is. If you think you might have an AUD, see your health care provider for an evaluation. Your provider can help make a treatment plan, prescribe medicines, and if needed, give you treatment referrals.

If you've never seen the film Eight Men Out, by all means rectify that and watch it as soon as possible. It's based on Eliot Asinof's celebrated book about the 1919 Black Sox scandal and directed by John Sayles, who, in a bad-ass bit of self-casting, plays the legendary sportswriter Ring Lardner that helps unravel the plot. The cast is stellar, from John Cusack to David Strathairn, and everything about the film evokes the era of bygone Chicago. We also become witnesses to how the eight Black Sox players were exiled from the sport, even for the most tangential of connections to the scandal.
Which brings us to Bill Simmons, who for all his influence and popularity with the public, has absolutely no effect whatsoever on the outcome of any sporting event, at least not until Caltech eggheads unravel the quantum mechanics behind the Reverse Jinx. He did, however, have to withdraw his NBA MVP ballot earlier this week after some attentive observers started connecting dots that started with him publicly announcing a bet on LeBron James to win the MVP before the season started and ended with his oh-so-public completion of an NBA awards ballot. (You'll never guess who he picked for MVP.) Obvious problem, right? Not to Simmons, apparently, or the NBA.
ESPN, which also doesn't seem overly concerned with the matter, felt compelled to issue yet another statement this week concerning an employee who likes to gamble. (Seems to be happening a lot lately.) Here was the word from on high:
Bill had never received a ballot before and didn't find out he had one until two-thirds of the season had passed. By that time he had made multiple MVP bets, two of which he had discussed on podcasts. He ended up withdrawing his MVP vote to avoid the perception of any conflict.
So while the bet was placed in good faith, the question ESPN's statement conveniently skirts is why Simmons still went ahead and filled out the ballot, knowing that he stood to gain financially from its outcome. (Or did I answer my own question?) There's only one person who knows that answer, and its admission won't make anyone look good or change anything, so it shall remain implicit in all likelihood. But that the NBA would still issue Simmons a ballot, in light of his public admission of betting on James, and or that ESPN doesn't consider this a more serious infraction are the more troubling questions.
For comparison's sake, though, Simmons isn't one of the Black Sox. He's more Ring Lardner, who was himself one of the most popular sports columnists of his era. He wrote books. He influenced a generation of writers. Lardner was also himself a little shady. (There's a great scene in Eight Men Out, where Lardner summons pitcher Eddie Cicotte, played by Strathairn, up to his hotel room and breaks the ice by tossing him a prototype ball that'll be introduced in MLB the following season. Of course, it's incredibly inappropriate for Lardner to be sharing such intel with a player, and whether or not it actually happened, you get a sense of the man's substance.) What Simmons did was dishonest and wrought with self-interest, but did he shave points, or buy off team mangers for inside info, or some other nefarious action that tied directly into events on the court? No, at the very worst, he tried to use the power of his vote in the hope it might throw him a few extra bucks. To say what he did was worthy of the Black Sox or Pete Rose or even Martha Stewart is misguided. He took a chance he wouldn't get caught and he got caught. Every gambler loses sometimes.
So how does ESPN view such transgressions as a policy? Here's what they say:
We have employee policies with respect to gambling to protect against potential conflicts. We recognize, however, that for many sports fans, gambling is a part of sports discussion. Therefore, periodically, our commentators include references to gambling in ways that are appropriate for their role and relevant to our audience. In Bill's case, he connects with millions by sharing common interests. Gambling in sports is a part of that cultural connection and appropriately at times part of Bill's work.
So that's the policy: Simmons and gambling are intrinsically linked. It's "part of Bill's work." That's fine. For that, he will likely never be allowed to vote for another NBA award (although that depends ultimately whether the NBA cares if an air of impropriety hangs over its award winners). But suspending him does nothing. Firing him does nothing. Banning him from arenas does nothing. He didn't cheat the sport he clearly loves so much. By any rational statistical measure, LeBron James earned anyone's vote fairly. Simmons just tried to profit off that excellence. I'm not so sure Lardner would've disapproved.

Basketball star LeBron James' decision to leave the Cleveland Cavaliers to play with two other star players in Miami is a reminder of a very old maxim: no one succeeds alone. One must be on a good team -- whether it's an office or a company or a government agency -- at a good time to have outsized success.
LeBron crossed my mind as I read reporter Russ Mitchell's smart look at Meg Whitman's record at the online auction company eBay in the Bay Citizen. Mitchell focused on the part of Whitman's tenure that she doesn't talk about: her final four years from 2004 to 2008, when the company lost half of its market value.
Mitchell writes: "What's notable about Whitman's career at eBay, however, is how her record cleaves into two neat parts: She did well during the company's go-go growth stage, but much less well as the company became large and mature. The state of California, of course, is likely more analogous to the latter than the former."
U.S. & World
News from around the country and around the globe
That last thought, while expressed well, may go a bit too far. Running a company, a profit making endeavor, is not the same thing as serving as governor of California, which is about preserving institutions, avoiding mistakes that can harm individuals and the economy, and managing resources so that young people are educated and the needy receive assistance.
It's also possible to conclude too much for the ups and downs of a candidate's record in business. In fact, it's reassuring to see a candidate who has tasted defeat and experienced setbacks -- particularly when it's someone like Whitman, whose immense wealth insulates her from so many of the pressures that voters feel. It'd be nice to hear Whitman talk more about these years, about why eBay struggled, and especially what mistakes she made and what she learned from them.

Ted Turner calls for switch to alternative fuels
In a rush for renewables
Ted Turner calls for fast work in making the switch from fossil fuels
There's not much middle ground for Ted Turner when it comes to the future of energy in the United States.
"What we need is a moratorium on all new coal plants, on all new carbon-producing energy power technologies, and work on replacing them with renewable alternatives," the billionaire founder of CNN said Wednesday.
Turner also called for urgent action to address global climate change, which he referred to as the "single greatest challenge that humanity has ever faced."
"The biggest danger is we won't do enough soon enough," he said.
Turner was in Houston to speak before the Houston World Affairs Council, along with Timothy Wirth, a former U.S. senator from Colorado who now heads the United Nations Foundation, a charity to help support U.N. efforts formed by Turner in 1998.
He spoke with the Chronicle before the speech about his views on energy policy, his personal investment in DT Solar, a New Jersey company involved in large-scale solar power projects, and on a range of other topics.
And though he was in a city where the economy is powered by oil and natural gas, Turner pulled no punches.
"The days of fossil fuels as a fuel are over," he told a packed ballroom over lunch at the Hotel Intercontinental. "It's just a matter of how soon everybody recognizes it."
Call for widespread changeHis speech, which was sponsored by British oil giant BP and Houston's Marathon Oil Corp., comes just days after a U.N. report was released that argued that climate science is getting more accurate and that there is "very high confidence" linking human activities to global warming.
But Turner said that in order to truly curb global warming in the long term, there needs to be a wholesale change in the way the world produces power, fuels its vehicles and heats its homes.
He said he favors nuclear power over coal, which should only have a future in the U.S. power industry if there's a way to safely get rid of the carbon dioxide emissions by sequestering it, or injecting it, deep into the ground. And he prefers wind and solar power to both.
He likes ethanol as an alternative to gasoline but sees more promise in making it from agricultural waste than from corn. Until the technology is widespread, however, he urges people to follow his example and buy gas-electric hybrid vehicles, such as the Toyota Prius, which get better mileage than most regular gasoline models.
If people aren't motivated by helping the Earth, they should be drawn by the financial opportunities in clean energy, Turner said.
"The greatest fortunes in the history of the world will be made in this new energy business," said Turner, who estimates his net worth at more than $1 billion.
Later, some doubtsThough the luncheon crowd gave Turner a standing ovation, reactions were more measured after he left the stage, especially to the idea that the era of fossil fuels is over.
"It's not,"said Sam Burkett, a partner in Vertex Green Energy, a Houston firm involved in alternative fuel production. Re-creating a new global infrastructure is not feasible without what could be trillions in investment, he said.
"A lot of the solutions have to use the current infrastructure as a backbone for change," he said.
'Energy mix is evolving'Carol Battershell , a vice president with BP's alternative energy division, said while her company began embracing clean energy solutions and reacting to global climate change about a decade ago, it's a gradual process.
"I think we see that the energy mix is evolving," she said. "But I think many people may be underestimating the time needed for the transition."

Element 84
Element 84 is a brand new, small software development company that has long been the dream of the founder. Our company specializes in helping large and small companies with new technologies that their in-house staff doesn't have experience with. Projects are small, quick, and extremely high quality. Currently we work with clients on iPhone apps, cloud computing, and web apps.
A key part of what we do is helping the customer determine what _their_ needs are, and build that, rather than just building to a big requirements document. We build our projects in a rapid, iterative style (each release is measured in days to weeks). We expect that our customers stay engaged with us throughout the entire project, providing feedback, making suggestions, and working together with us to build the right app.
We'll use this logo as the centerpiece for our website and marketing materials for the new company. Typical clients would be large and small companies, as well as some government groups.
The logo should look professional, but have a modern feel. As far as colors go, we're flexible. We'd like to stay away from anything that can look too trendy, as we're hoping to use the logo for a while. We want to communicate that we are well versed in the latest technologies and that we can communicate the benefits and risks to our customers. We want to be viewed as partners with our customers.
Concepts we'd like our logo to communicate:
1. Confident in the latest technologies
2. Effective at communicating with executives and developers
3. Understand benefits and risks associated with new technologies
4. Partners with our customers - it's as much about education (in both directions) as it is about software development.
The files we require are:
Print file format - .ai (CMYK)
Web file format - .jpg and layered .psd (RGB)
Please do not use any stock images or clip art in the logo and we'd like the images to be hi-res enough that we can use them for t-shirts, the website, and business cards.

The recent announcement that the late Robert B. Parker's "Spenser" and "Jesse Stone" mysteries will live on under new authors is just the latest in a long line of series continuations. Mystery writer Ace Atkins is writing a Spenser novel for Spring 2012 publication, while Hollywood producer Michael Brandman will bring Jesse Stone back in a novel this September.
Series continuations under later authors have been both lauded and damned. As the one who extended the life of Rex's Stout's famed private eye Nero Wolfe with seven novels in the 1980s and '90s, I got both praise and derision–praise from readers who were glad to have more tales of Wolfe and his loyal right-hand, Archie Goodwin, and derision from those who either lamented that "you haven't got it right" or who felt fictional characters should be allowed to die with their creators.
Otto Penzler, longtime mystery publisher and bookstore owner, falls into that latter camp. Quoted in an April Wall Street Journal article about the Spenser continuations, Penzler said he has "a philosophical opposition to people picking up other writers' series."
In many instances, the estate of the creator approves a continuator. Such was the case with the new Spenser stories, which were approved by Parker's widow, Joan. The estate of Margaret Mitchell has okayed multiple sequels to her iconic "Gone with the Wind." Several writers including my friend Raymond Benson got the green-light from the estate of Ian Fleming to do more James Bond stories. And I received the blessing of the Rex Stout estate in my continuations. Interestingly, Parker himself also was a continuator, completing the unfinished Raymond Chandler manuscript of "Poodle Springs," a Philip Marlowe story. He also wrote "Perchance to Dream," a sequel to Chandler's "The Big Sleep."
In another recent development, novelist Jamie Freveletti has been invited by the estate of the late Robert Ludlum to continue Ludlum's "Covert One" series. So the beat goes on, and it is a good bet we have not seen the last of continuators rising up to carry on the adventures of fictional characters that have engendered and strong and fiercely loyal followings.

text: wrx_my00 0 Posted May 20, 2013 (edited) Subject: Looking for a used car John Clarke & Bryan Dawes. [scene: A car yard. BRYAN is perusing the stock. He is approached by JOHN] John: Morning! Looking for a new car? Bryan: Nope. New Prime Minister, actually. John: You're the third one this morning. Anything in mind? Bryan: You know...... nothing fancy, reliable, economical family model. Something to get the country from A to B. John: You mean like a Howard? Bryan: Yeah...a little Johnny. Nothing flash, does the job. Low maintenance, economical, sensible. Runs for years, no troubles. John: So.... you used to have one? Bryan: Yeah. About 10 years. Great little model - don't know why I got rid of him -- biggest mistake I've ever made. John: What happened? Bryan: Traded him in for a Kevin 07. John: Big mistake. Bryan: Lot of people bought it. Good political mileage. John: How was the Kevin 07? Bryan: Came with a $900 factory rebate - that was good. John: Anything else? Bryan: Not much. Sounded nice but nothing under the bonnet. It was a lemon. John: Didn't stick around for long did it? Bryan: Nah - had a factory recall. Shipped overseas and was never seen again. John: What was the problem? Bryan: Lots. But the final straw was the navigation system. Plug it in and it automatically loses its own way. John: Whatcha got now? Bryan: It's a Gillard-Brown. John: The hybrid? Bryan: Yeah. The Eco-drive system - not a good idea. An engine that can't deliver hooked up to a transmission stuck in permanent reverse. John: Green paintwork with a red interior. And steering that always lurches to the left for no apparent reason - that's the one? Bryan: The Fustercluck model. John: The only one they made, Bryan . Not the vehicle of choice for the road to recovery - but did they finish up fixing the navigation system? Bryan: Made it worse. Turn it on and it does a press release, heads off in all directions and goes nowhere. John: So that's why you're here? Bryan: That's right. I'm stuck with a car that's wasteful, expensive, ineffective and past its use by date. I don't suppose you've heard of the "Cash for Clunkers" scheme? John: Join the queue brother.

What the little GoPro Hero 3 lacks in size, it makes up for in big pictures. But what makes that rugged camera work? The teardown scientists over at iFixit took a look under the hood of GoPro's latest.
What did they find? Of course the powerful camera that can capture 4K video is home to a 12-megapixel sensor with better low light capabilities. But otherwise, the components aren't all that surprising considering the Hero 3 is the kind of thing you take down a mountain, or on the handlebars of a bike a breakneck speed. You know, the kind of activities that lead to falls, and thus broken gadgets. Most components are very easy to remove, meaning they're pretty easy to repair without having to buy an entirely new camera. For example, the battery — which GoPro downgraded by 50 mAh probably to make the Hero 3 smaller — pops right out without any tools. The image sensor, too, is easily removed from the motherboard. And the Hero 3 is a a small device that uses very little power and doesn't produce a lot of heat, so another interesting piece iFixit found was a thermal compound on the image processor — a very agressive cooling feature.
Overall, iFixit said the new GoPro was simple to take apart, meaning simple to repair. So go ahead and punish it. [iFixit]
