Former Aston Villa defender Steve Staunton believes it is "crucial" that Paul Lambert's side record a victory in the first leg of the Capital One Cup semi-final at Bradford in a testing week for the Premier League strugglers.
The Villans came from behind to beat Ipswich 2-1 in the FA Cup on Saturday, and have a tricky tie against the League Two giant-killers on Tuesday before playing fellow relegation candidates Southampton this weekend.
However, while the former Ireland international describes the visit to Valley Parade as a "massive hurdle", he thinks Villa's youngsters can use the opportunity and experience on offer to go on and win the tournament.
|Aston Villa are 11/4 with Bet365 to win the Capital One Cup this season
"It has been a difficult period but you're going to get that with a young squad. If they can get through to the final it will give the club time to get some of the older heads back.
"[The youngsters] have proved themselves on occasions, and on others have let themselves down badly, but you learn more in defeat than you do in winning.
"Hopefully they can come out of it. It's not going to be easy, and it won't be easy at Valley Parade."
Staunton expects Lambert to set up his team to attack the League Two promotion chasers from the off, but fears for the Premier League side if they attempt to protect a lead.
"[Lambert] set up his teams to go at the opposition rather than sit back, I don't think Villa are capable of sitting back and hanging on, if they do so they'll be in trouble," he warned.
"I think they'll go at Bradford. It'll leave them exposed at the back, but that's the nature of the beast."
And while they are not through to the final yet, Staunton feels the Premier League strugglers can go on to win the competition, even if favorites Chelsea also progress against Swansea.
"There's no reason why if Villa get there they can't beat Chelsea, but Bradford are a massive hurdle," he added. "As long as they don't take that tie for granted and get to the final, it could be their year."
Former Bradford defender David Wetherall believes the Bantams will be confident of causing another upset after knocking out both Wigan and Arsenal, but must get something from the first leg in order to reach the final.
"The two-legged nature of the tie will make it more difficult for Bradford - getting two good results rather than just that one-off that can happen," he admitted.
"If they're behind after the first leg it will be very difficult to turn it around away from home, but they will take a lot of confidence from the Arsenal victory."
Steve Staunton and David Wetherall were talking ahead of this week's Capital One Cup Semi-Final first leg ties. Find out more about the competition on the official website at www.capitalonecup.co.uk or join the debate on the semi-finals on Twitter @CapitalOne_Cup using the hashtag #CapitalOneCup.

Principal Investigator(s):
Demographic models are widely used to predict the consequences of management actions, such as sustainable harvest, possible restoration strategies of endangered species, and ways to control invasive species. These models, like all ecological models, simplify the complexity of natural systems and therefore are not expected to accurately reflect all aspects of population dynamics. However, if they are too simplistic, these models would not provide good guidance for management. The key question, then, is whether the models capture enough detail to support their common applications. Our working group will, first, quantify how models are interpreted in practice for management of plant populations. For example, do practitioners expect models to make exact predictions of population size, distinguish growing from declining populations, or simply tell them which management option is best? Next, we will test whether models provide useful guidance in these applications, in spite of their simplicity. We have just reached the point where models, developed for plant populations 5-20 years ago, can be compared to subsequent population dynamics. The combination of designing tests that reflect actual applications and comparing predictions with realized management outcomes will provide an important evaluation for this much used tool. Our project will also provide an example of potential tests of ecological models in other contexts, and a database of long-term studies that other researchers can use to address questions in basic and applied ecology.

An excerpt from Damien Cox's Spin on Sports:
We're waiting for the first big move by Dave Nonis as GM of the Maple Leafs.
It might have to be a really big one.
See, if it turns out, as is being widely speculated, that the Anaheim Ducks can afford to keep only one their dynamic duo, Ryan Getzlaf and Corey Perry, and that Getzlaf is the one most likely to get the new long-term deal from the Ducks, then Perry could be available before the April 3rd trade deadline.
If that's the case and Perry hits the trade market, it's a competition the Leafs must be in.
Perry — who registered a nice three-assist effort in an Anaheim win over Nashville last night - isn't a perfect fit for the Leafs, a team desperate for a No. 1 centre. But he competes like hell, is a former Hart Trophy winner and the proud owner of a Stanley Cup ring. He'll be 28 in May, not too old to still be a dominant player for years to come.
He's the kind of player who could transform the Leafs in a way it was once believed Phil Kessel could, but clearly never will.
It will be an expensive deal to make, both in terms of players, and in terms of a contract. Perry deserves a sizeable increase on his current $4.875 million salary, and depending how high he wants to drive the price, he could be headed north of $8 million.
The Leafs can pay that. They'll have the room. They surely have the need to bring in a player who has actually accomplished something big in this league. And he's accomplished a few big things.
Assuming the Leafs would be very interested, here's where it gets really interesting. Ex-GM Brian Burke, as we know, is now a part-time scout with the Ducks. He can supply Anaheim with the inside dope on every single Leaf player and prospect, plus he knows how Nonis feels and thinks about every single Leaf player and prospect, and how he values them.
Leaf head coach Randy Carlyle, on the other hand, has intimate knowledge of the Anaheim roster. So that factor is somewhat counter-balanced.
Would Burke, who brought Kessel to Toronto and still believes in him, recommend the Ducks look at acquiring Silent Phil as part of a package for Perry? Would Nonis need to be able to have a contract in place with Perry before a trade could be consumated?
Lots of moving parts here, and lots of speculation. Heck, Anaheim could sign both Getzlaf and Perry — that seems unlikely — or keep both beyond the trade deadline even if unsigned.
That also seems unlikely. They already tried and lost that gambit with Justin Schultz.
So this is going to be a hot story to watch. Starting . . . now.

NORTH DARTMOUTH, MA - University of Massachusetts Boston women's soccer player Kristin Mulry (Holbrook, MA) has been named Little East Conference Women's Soccer Rookie of the Week for her play during the week of October 13-19, it was announced today by the conference office. Mulry has been selected for the award a league-high three times this season and for the second straight week. Her honor marks the fifth time in seven weeks that a UMB player has been named the top rookie. Freshman midfielder Molly Kuchar (Ashville, NC) was tabbed for the week of September 1-7, Mulry was the top rookie for the weeks of September 22-28 and October 6-12 and freshman defender Samantha Place (Newton, NJ) was the top rookie choice for the week of September 29 to October 5.
Mulry netted a pair of goals in three matches for four points on the week. The freshman tallied both of her scores at Emerson College on October 14 for the Beacons.
The forward ranks second in the conference in total points with 22 and goals with 11, while owning a .297 shot percentage to lead UMass Boston players with seven or more shots taken. Her goal-total is the most in a season for a freshman at UMB in school history and the third-highest for any UMass Boston player in a season. A graduate of Hingham High School, she has one game-winning goal on the year to tie for the team-lead and has started six of 15 matches. She has been an extremely reliable goal-scorer over the past nine matches, having scored at least one goal in six of them and has netted at least one goal in seven matches on the year, including three with two or more.
The Beacons are currently 5-9-1 on the season, including a 2-2-1 mark in Little East Conference play to place them fourth in the LEC standings. UMass Boston will be in action again on Wednesday, October 22 when it travels to Buzzards Bay, MA to take on Massachusetts Maritime Academy for a 4:00 p.m. match.

In this photo by Bullit Marquez, Japanese koi swim under paddling ducks at a zoo in the Philippines. Malabon Zoo owner Manny Tangco said he has opened the new koi collection to honor Filipinos who work abroad because the fish are said to symbolize perseverance. The launching of the new attraction comes in time for National Heroes' Day on Monday. About one in 10 Filipinos works abroad, supporting their families and the Philippine economy with the money they send home. The government often refers to Filipino workers overseas as the country's "new heroes."

Rangel files suit to overturn censure
New York Democratic Rep. Charles Rangel has filed a lawsuit in federal court seeking to overturn a House decision in 2010 to censure him for financial wrongdoing.
The 82-year-old Rangel says the House censure vote, which blemished the Harlem lawmaker's four-decade-long career in the House, should be vacated because staff and members of the House Ethics Committee withheld evidence of misconduct in conducting the probe against him.
The lawsuit says there would have been a "different outcome" to the case if the committee had not suppressed material pointing to misconduct in the investigation.
The House in late 2010 voted to censure Rangel for various financial actions, including failure to pay all his taxes, filing misleading financial statements and improperly seeking money from corporate interests.

This pledge closed about 3 years ago
There is nothing glamorous about dog fighting.
A blood sport in which dogs are bred to fight, many dogs die if not in the ring, then after a fight when they don't win.
Gordon Shell, a retired MMA fighter known as "The Dog Fighter" recognizes this.
Although he has been in the fight game for over twenty years, with 200 fights in regular martial arts tournaments over 24 years, he is convinced that this cruelty is reprehensible.
He would like to see an end to it.
On Saturday July 27th, starting at 4PM, dog lovers and advocates of all ages are invited to the Motion Picture Institute to participate in a FREE awareness event.
The focus of this event will be "The Dog Fighter: MMA's Animal Rights Hero". an emotionally charged documentary in which Shell spreads awareness to end the illegal dog fighting epidemic plaguing Detroit and win prize money for the local Humane Society.

Even though New York now has the toughest gun laws in the nation, the debate in Congress is just taking shape and the effort to repeal the laws approved in Albany is underway. So we can expect to hear a lot more about gun control over the next few months.
Even though New York now has the toughest gun laws in the nation, the debate in Congress is just taking shape and the effort to repeal the laws approved in Albany is underway. So we can expect to hear a lot more about gun control over the next few months.
Two state senators who opposed the new laws, John Bonacic and Bill Larkin, are doing what they can to help ensure that the issue does not fade away. Both have petitions on their Senate websites to gather virtual signatures supporting recall. Both appeal to backers of the Second Amendment and stress the need for more laws dealing with criminals and mental illness.
Agree with them or not, they are trying to get all of the information out to the public. Both have links on their sites to not only the petitions, but also to detailed lists of questions and answers about the new laws to help clear up confusion. There, those who are worried about what they have heard and want to know more will find explanations that should be comforting.
As the senators point out through their Web links, "Most guns are not assault weapons and are not affected by this law." Those who worry that they will not be able to keep the assault weapons they now have are instructed that if they have one, they "can register it with the State Police." And for those already familiar with the licensing procedure for a handgun comes the explanation that the new requirement for registering weapons "is much simpler. To register, all you need to do is fill out a basic form. You do not need to appear in person or provide references or other information that is typically provided during the handgun licensing process."
After reading all that, it's hard to see why anybody would then sign a petition to get rid of the laws but the senators still are making that appeal to "every gun owner, hunter, sportsman and supporter of the Second Amendment."
Some in Albany do not stop there, however. Schenectady Assemblyman James Tedisco has a different take on why people need guns: "It's for our public safety. It's to protect us from our own government."
Our own government?
Those men who later wrote and approved the Second Amendment took up arms not against the government they were trying to create, but against the government they wanted to overthrow, the government of the King in England. When officers in the Continental Army were about to march on Congress from Newburgh to extract their long overdue pay, it was George Washington who restrained them and established the precedent that in this nation, we settle things with ballots, not bullets. In 1800, after a campaign that makes any recent clash appear polite, power transferred between political parties without violence.
That's why we have a word in this country for people who use their guns against our own government. We don't call them patriots, we call them criminals.

Still, I hope that Inner Moka won't act as she usually does, since we have to remember that the last time we had seen Inner Moka, before she has been resealed, due to Tohou Fuhai repairing the Rosario, she had been wondering if this will be the last time she sees Tsukune, and while I doubt that she is going to admit that she has been thinking something like that, it might lessen her tsundere antics a little.... especially if we consider the fact that at the current point Tsukune became her equal or maybe, at the current point in the story Tsukune is, a little stronger then she is, depending on how his confrontation against Akua is going to look like...
Furthermore, if the fact that Tsukune became stronger for Moka's sake is going to be revealed the her, it might cause Inner Moka to revise her statements on getting weaker, becuase of her feelings toward Tsukune , that she made in chapter 27, which, in my opinion, would definitely be an improvement in Inner Moka's character...

If Moka almost kills Tsukune with everyday workout, imagine what kind of a wreck she'll leave the poor bastard in after sharing a bed. Damn, I'd be surprised if his wiener'd be intact after what Inner Moka is going to do to it!
Because you know, rough girls play rough and all that. And Moka is rougher than sand paper in that scale. At the same time you want to stay, but you also want to run away because you know you'll be in for an all-nighter.

... I love how we make so many innuendos based on Tsukune and Moka, due to Inner being just that powerful and Tsukune being her lover and where their relationship will go. I swear some people out here are reading too much hentai
With Tsukune and Inner finally meeting up... well, we all know she's going to probably go tsunDERE, emphasis on the dere part and probably a huge blush. Basically, think something similar to the face back in the pumpkin pie chapter.

With that said, I think it's a doable x-over between the two. The siblings, I can do without and the reasoning for the main character's funkfest, I'll rework it to suit my tastes... But subbing Ura-Moka for Queen - they have nigh similar personalities oddly enough
The Shuzen Oranization => Moka's family...
Akuha graduated from Wild High already, as did Kahula...
The school's most famous graduate of course, Akasha, with a record that still stands today...(Akuha got the closest but only 3/4ths of the way to Akasha's actual score)
Moka is trying NOT to go for that score but everyone else has already put her upon that famed pedestal...
As for Tsukune...he lives with Kyoko and...someone else, haven't decided to give him a younger sibling or whatnot...There will be some family drama over there, prompting Tsukune's reluctant acceptance to 'Wild High' for the free ride through school...
Hmmm, what do you guys think:
Which martial arts fits which of the girls?
Kurumu - (she might like the fast, agile one like Tae Kwon, but that chest of hers...)
Mizore - Judo or pehaps Akkido or Hapkido...
Ruby - NO IDEA...yet

Omote, inner, Kurumu, Mizzore, Yukari, Ruby... A lot of girls love Tsukune, I'm just wondering how things are going to work out. I can't see Tsukune choosing any one of them over the others, maybe Moka vefore he got trapped in her soul and found out that she is literally two people sharing the same body, as opposed to just one person with a split personality (double the love). I think ultimately Moka is going to warm up to polygamy, seems like the only thing Tsukune can do without breaking the hearts of all of his friends. Anyway he is part of the mafia, so that is all good... ^.^

Anyway, to me, the initial role of the other girls in Tsukune's harem was to prevent Tsukune and Moka from becoming a couple too quickly, and honestly, currently, I don't think that role has changed....
As for the problem between choosing between Outer or Inner Moka the author already implied that they might merge into a single personality, and this is further accumulated by the fact that, Outer Moka is an artificial personality which can't function without the Rosario, and while Moka's seal most likely won't break in the current arc, to me it's definitely going to occur, before this manga ends, since Moka would definitely need her Shinso powers for the final battle in this manga (well, there is still some time, before it's going to occur, so don't worry) and for that to be possible, Moka's seal would need to be completely removed by Tsukune.
So, I have to say that if a harem ending really occurs, it would lessen the impact of the developments that Moka's and Tsukune's relationship had, not to mention, unlike you I don't see Inner and Outer Moka changing her view on polygamy, since to me, the reason why she's against it so much, is because she comes from a family where such a relationship took place and knows what a polygamous relationship might do to a person, and most likely, doesn't want such a future for herself.
At least that's how I see this matter, but since I'm not the author, I don't have any influence on how the actual ending of this manga is going to look like...
On a different topic, a summary of chapter 48 has appeared here: http://bigt1987.blogspot.com/2011/12...ire-ii-48.html

[mod edit: scanlation-related discussion removed]
On a different topic I'm starting to wonder if Moka won't become an outcast among her kind (at least among the vampires, who would be against coexisting with humans, which, in my opinion, would be a majority of the current vampire generation), once the fact that she has given her blood to a (former) human, becomes more known.
After all, I doubt that the vampires would look fondly on a being that has similar powers as they do, and almost none of their weaknesses - since, after all Tsukune is still weak to Holy Items, just like an ordinary vampire, otherwise the Holy Lock he is still wearing, wouldn't be capable of keeping Tsukune's "berserk side" at bay, which allows Tsukune to keep his sanity...
Naturally, all of that, might be a part of Tsukune and Moka fulfilling their destiny, that Jack Frost talked about, so overall, I could see something like that happening in the future chapters...

A good bond and promise that goes down hill, that sucks, but i can see those two making up in order to put away the feud between the Wong and Miu families once and for all or i'm hoping that will happen, it would probably have something to do with that promise.

Inspiration for Sandra and Justin's Kitchen
Type of Project: Kitchen remodel
Location: Arlington, Texas
Type of building: Single-family home, 2,450 square feet
The Renovation Diaries are a new collaboration with our community in which we feature your step by step renovation progress and provide monetary support towards getting it done in style. See all of our Reno Diaries here.
Last week we introduced you to Sandra and Justin's kitchen remodel. They're taking on the cramped and outdated kitchen in their Texas home and transforming it into a beautiful, open space that's perfect for gatherings of family and friends. In this post, they're sharing some of their inspiration for the project.
From Sandra:
White kitchen and gray countertops, relaxed with natural wood and bold color.
Dark gray countertops, white cabinetry and industrial metal stools.
We had originally planned to use a designer (we are in love with the excellent style at Neighborhood in Dallas), but we realized our purse strings were pulled a lot tighter than we thought when we started thinking about the scope and expense of the remodel we needed — we had to just go for it ourselves.
Bright white hex tile with dark grout.
Countertops: Ceasarstone quartz countertops in concrete.
Flooring: We bought a 50 year stranded bamboo in a variegated light to medium tone at a killer closeout price at Ged's Floor Store Outlet.
Appliances: All appliances are new and shiny and stainless steel.
Backsplash: Will most likely come from datile.com- as soon as we can decide what we want.
Lighting: Will be a simple industrial style and hopefully red, orange or yellow — I'm thinking of ordering a pair of these or checking out Lights Fantastic in Dallas.
Barstools: Stools for the bar will take an industrial look be colorful backless tabouret ones.

United Way hosting second annual 24-hour online fundraising event to benefit local nonprofits
United Way of Buffalo & Erie County has announced it will host its second annual "Spring It On"campaign, a 24-hour online fundraising event to be held Thursday, March 20 - the first day of spring.
The event is designed to raise awareness and funds for not-for-profit organizations throughout Western New York with a unique one-day focus. In 2013, the program's first year, 182 nonprofit organizations in Erie and Niagara counties participated and raised more than $76,000. More than 120 agencies have signed up for the 2014 event so far, and organizers hope that number will rise substantially in the coming weeks.
This year, the event has been expanded to include Erie, Niagara, Chautauqua, Allegany and Orleans counties. It will run from 8 a.m. March 21 until 8 a.m. March 22. Any interested 501(c)(3) organizations providing services in those counties are eligible to participate.
The event seeks to mobilize citizens for one day of giving to strengthen and support the community. Individuals can make a one-time, secure, online donation to the local not-for-profit agency of their choice through a specially designed website, www.springiton.org. The event was created and is powered by the United Way of Buffalo & Erie County.
United Way and participating agencies will encourage supporters to contribute during "Spring It On" through social media messaging, website communication and traditional marketing initiatives.
Michael Weiner, United Way of Buffalo & Erie County president and CEO said, "We were delighted with the level of participation in 'Spring It On' last year, and are confident that this year will be an even bigger success. It is a great way for nonprofit organizations to extend their reach to new audiences through social media and online communications for relatively little investment, and it provides a focal point for the community to get mobilized to give. Even the smallest organization, with focus and creativity, can reach new constituents with their unique story through 'Spring It On.' "
"Spring It On" is modeled on similar events held in other cities across the country, including Rochester's successful "ROC The Day" event.
Organizations interested in participating should contact Patty Olender at 716-887-2637 to learn more and to register.
"Spring It On" updates will be posted in the coming weeks, and throughout the event, on United Way of Buffalo and Erie County's Facebook page and Twitter account via #SpringItOn2014. For more information, visit www.springiton.org

Defense prepares for possible kidnapping charges in Exeter murderBy JASON SCHREIBER
Union Leader Correspondent
May 13. 2013 1:25PM
BRENTWOOD - The defense lawyer for a woman accused of providing a gun allegedly used by her brother in the murder of his ex-wife is preparing for the possibility of kidnapping charges being filed in the case.
"I'm trying to properly defend her now and put steps in place that if that is what happens we're prepared to deal with it," said Andrew Cotrupi, a Hampton lawyer appointed to represent Michele Corson on charges stemming from her alleged role in the death of Amanda "Amy" Warf.
Corson, 43, of Skowhegan, Maine, appeared in the 10th Circuit Court, Brentwood District Division, this morning on charges of conspiracy to commit murder and accomplice to first-degree murder. Warf's ex-husband, Aaron Desjardins, 36, of Epping, is charged with first-degree murder for allegedly killing Warf by slitting her throat.
The Hampton woman was found dead on the morning of March 7 inside the abandoned City Concrete plant on Hampton Road in Exeter after firefighters responded to an arson fire on the second floor. No one has yet been charged with setting the fire.
Desjardins' current wife, Sarah, 34, is also charged with one count of conspiracy to commit murder and one count of conspiracy to commit hindering apprehension or prosecution. She is accused of helping her husband plan the murder and sending a text message to Corson asking her to "bring a roasting pan" to her brother. The message, allegedly sent at the request of her husband, was code for gun, according to prosecutors.
Corson allegedly brought the gun to her brother on March 6. Prosecutors have said Aaron Desjardins used the gun to coerce Warf into the concrete building where she was then killed.
The case against Corson is now expected to be sent to a grand jury for possible indictment. Given the allegations in the affidavits, Cotrupi said some "extremely serious charges" could be brought, including kidnapping.
"If it's a kidnapping involving murder it could be a capital murder case," Cotrupi said.
Prosecutors have not said how Warf ended up at City Concrete on the morning of the murder and whether she may have been on her way to work at an Exeter Hospital administrative office building located around the corner from the concrete building.
Desjardins, who confessed to his role in the alleged murder conspiracy, told authorities that his wife and sister were his alibi witnesses, according to prosecutors.
Cotrupi said he plans to hire a private investigator as he builds Corson's defense. Because she is indigent, he filed a motion seeking court funds to the investigator. Judge Mark Weaver approved the motion this morning.
"Given the fact that it's such a serious case, we will almost certainly need a private investigator. The only way to do that is with court approval," Cotrupi said.
Corson, who waived her probable cause hearing this morning, remains held without bail at the Valley Street Jail in Manchester. She has also been ordered to have no contact with her brother, his wife, and the Warf family. Members of Corson's and Desjardins' family attended this morning's court hearing but declined to comment on the case.

Irish Rugby
O'Driscoll open to Super Rugby switch

October 6, 2012

Leinster and Ireland talisman Brian O'Driscoll has revealed he would consider a high-profile switch to the Super Rugby stage.
The 33-year-old centre is contracted with his province and the Irish Rugby Football Union until the middle of next year but the Sydney-based Waratahs' recent recruitment of former Leinster coach Michael Cheika has opened the door for a possible move Down Under in time for the 2014 Super Rugby season.
O'Driscoll told the Australian Daily Telegraph that although family logistics may make such a move difficult, he is tempted by the prospect and would happily discuss it with Chieka with whom he worked closely during his five-year tenure in Dublin.
"What excites me is the challenge of playing against the calibre of player you are playing week-in, week-out down there,'' O'Driscoll said. "That is an exciting prospect. But whether all the pieces fit, I don't know. At this moment in time, probably not but 'Cheiks' has my number, so if he wants to give me a call, he knows how to get me.''
O'Driscoll also revealed that he has long held an ambition to play Super Rugby and went as far as to inquire about a move last year. "Just before the World Cup I thought about the possibility of last year maybe taking a little bit of downtime after the World Cup, and playing a year of Super Rugby,'' O'Driscoll said.
"The three best teams in the world make up the Super 15, and you look at the individuals and you look at the calibre of sides and the quality of Super Rugby and the intensity of it, obviously it is a hugely high standard...I am contracted only to June, so whether I play on for another year after that, the body will be able to tell me later on this year."
Cheika was sceptical about acquiring O'Driscoll's services but told the newspaper that he was convinced O'Driscoll still had plenty to offer any side. "O'Driscoll is a class act both on and off the field and I'm sure we'll see that class from him during the Lions tour next year,'' he said.
"Brian is a Leinster man through and through. Sydney is a long way from Dublin, so I'd say the only chance of him playing Super Rugby is if we kidnap him during our tour match against the Lions next June. I will say though he is one northern hemisphere player who I am sure would be able to be a dominant figure in the southern hemisphere tournament.''

Sufjan Stevens enchants fans with silly sing-along 'Christmess'
Christmas is a messy holiday, piled high with associations both religious and secular, inextricably intertwined with misty family memories and hazy recollections of parties, bathed in forced cheer and genuine warmth.
Thursday night at Turner Hall Ballroom, Sufjan Stevens gloried in the contradictions and excesses, and he added his own: The show was variously called "Christmess [sic] Sing-A-Long" and "Seasonal Affective Disorder Yuletide Disaster Pageant on Ice."
Stevens (occasionally referring to himself as "Surfjohn") and the five members of his band came out dressed in costumes that defied simple description - the guitarist, for example, was "Superman if he were also a chicken" - and occupied a stage packed with an attic's worth of Christmas kitsch.
The predominant prop was an enormous circle with several pie-slice segments, each bearing a song title painted with, one suspects, deliberate amateurishness. This "Wheel of Christmas" was periodically spun to determine the next selection of the evening.
While band members, volunteers and Stevens all openly leaned on the wheel to avoid repetitions, or just songs Stevens didn't want to do, the capacity crowd generally sang along with unfeigned enthusiasm to "Jingle Bells," "Santa Claus Is Coming to Town" and other favorites.
The musicians helped by speeding up the classics in order to push past modern embarrassment with any kind of participation in corny traditions. It's probable they were helped by the high-spirited (which is to say, filled with liquid spirits) nature of many audience members.
Veering wildly between styles and moods in a manner not unlike the Christmas EPs he's fond of making, Stevens spiked the eggnog of familiarity with exotic spices. The roasted chestnut "Do You Hear What I Hear?" became an extended blend of electronically distorted voices and dissonant beats, and it was strangely beautiful.
He brought out some originals, as well, ranging from "Mr. Frosty Man," a mercifully short punk blast with a resemblance to Magnetic Fields' forays in that direction, to "Justice Delivers Its Death," a rumination on what actually matters that had the feel of Elliott Smith at his most elegiac.
To his credit, Stevens didn't attempt to impart an overall message or moral (a.k.a. a "reason for the season"). A man cannot leave the stage, return to it almost buried in balloons and then perform an overly lengthy number about being the "Christmas Unicorn" (including a mystifying segue into Joy Division's "Love Will Tear Us Apart") and still claim he has a serious point.
Yet the song did have a point, and so did Stevens, and it seemed to be this: Christmas can be whatever you want it to be.

Clinical Psychology PsyD – Hong Kong
The CSPP Clinical Psychology PsyD program in Hong Kong, offered in association with the School of Continuing and Professional Education (SCOPE), City University of Hong Kong, is designed to train doctoral level psychologists to provide psychotherapy and other applications of clinical psychology to individuals seeking such services in Hong Kong and its region. The program uses a Practitioner Scholar approach and focuses on both the Clinical Researcher and Scholar components.
The Hong Kong program aims to provide a truly international and culturally competent approach to education, drawing on the worldwide work being done in psychology and interpreting that work to benefit psychological service provision in Hong Kong and its region. The program curriculum integrates Western and Asian psychological theory, research, and application pertaining to clinical assessment and intervention with adults, children, and families. The program also provides a model of education and training for psychologists in Hong Kong that emphasizes practice, as well as the application of research to this practice, in order to prepare individuals to work within the Hong Kong mental health delivery system. This training is meant to address the gaps in mental health service delivery in Hong Kong and its region, particularly those pertaining to the treatment of marital problems, child-rearing difficulties, substance abuse, domestic violence, and child abuse.
Curriculum – Learning Outcomes – Practica and Internships
The curriculum provides training in the scientific foundations of psychology, research, clinical theory, and the hands-on skills a practitioner needs. The PsyD dissertation is meant to demonstrate the student's ability to think critically about clinical and social issues and to make appropriate use of scientific knowledge and psychological research in professional practice.
The Clinical Psychology PsyD program is designed to be completed in four years, with a combination of semester-long face to face courses, intensive face to face courses, semester-long online courses, semester-long blended courses (some instruction face to face and some instruction online), and supervised field work. Schedules are designed to accommodate working professionals. Teaching staff are drawn from both CSPP faculty in the U.S. and Hong Kong and the professional psychological community in Hong Kong.

Senior Erik Oja was a bright spot for UA on Tuesday, firing a four-under 66 to bring his total to 212 (+2) for the tournament. The performance, which was the best round in the field on Tuesday, moved Oja from a tie for 27th into a tie for eighth.
The finish also marked Oja's third top-10 effort in four starts this season.
"Erik is among the best in college golf, and he continues to prove that on the course," Arizona head coach Jim Anderson said. "His round today is just another example of the fact that he can compete with anyone. We're happy for him and we hope that he'll continue to use events like this to build confidence for the future."
Other Wildcat finishes included senior Benson Liu in 56th (228), junior Alex McMahon in 58th (234), junior Tucker Wadkins in 59th (236) and senior Christian Colegrove in 60th (242).
The Wildcats will take a weekend off before wrapping up their fall campaign at the Herb Wimberly Intercollegiate from Oct. 21-22 in Las Cruces, N.M. For more information on Arizona men's golf, follow @UAWildcatsGolf on Twitter.

Computer hardware has come a long way. Quad-core machines are common. However, not all quad-core machines are alike. Not only are there differences at the processor level, but developers must code their applications to take advantage of the multiple cores. Expensive quad-core processors include enhancements that a skilled developer can use to maximize performance, but we need to look at each processor separately to assess the potential.
Here, we will review recent hardware enhancements, examine how programming efficiencies can benefit traders and quantify the analytical edge the multicore programming provides.
By the numbers
When shopping for a computer, it is important to identify the characteristics that can make the biggest difference in terms of performance. Some of these key features include number of cores, clock speed, bus speed, hyper-threading and compatibility among components.
There are two main choices for desktop CPUs: Intel and AMD. These processors are not interchangeable. Moreover, all CPUs do not fit all computer makes and models. A CPU attaches to a computer's motherboard through a special socket. Some manufacturers consistently use the same type of socket in all their products' motherboards, which can tie a specific CPU type or company to a brand. Finding out whether a certain CPU is compatible with a particular computer model is the most fundamental aspect of CPU selection.
The number of cores, clock speed and hyper-threading capabilities are among the most important specifications. As is often the case with technology, numbers are not everything. Personal needs must be taken into account.
Having more cores on a processor means that it can execute more tasks in parallel. Dual-core processors, which started the multicore revolution, have become the minimum standard on laptops, while quad-core machines have become standard for desktops. It is possible to find CPUs with six or more cores.
Hyper-threading is an Intel technology that enables a single core to process various threads simultaneously. For example, a six-core processor featuring hyper-threading can process 12 threads at a time. In practice, due to bottlenecks, hyper-threading increases performance by about 30%. Hyper-threading also requires operating system support, in addition to the hardware.
Then there's clock speed, which is expressed in gigahertz. This measure describes how often the computer's clock pulses in one minute. CPUs combining a high clock speed with hyper-threading and multiple cores are the fastest and most powerful. Overclocking allows CPUs to run faster than their regular speed specifications. Overclocking CPUs usually requires more power and will generate more heat. Extreme overclocking can introduce computational errors.
In terms of technology that surpasses the needs of the typical user, Intel remains ahead of AMD in general performance and speed (see "Multiple-Core CPUs," below). AMD only becomes a competitor when it comes to budget CPUs.
For example, AMD chips do not have hyper-threading and cannot be overclocked. When buying a quad-core machine, the processor is critical to the speed of the machine when running multicore software. The Intel i5 also does not offer multi-threading, like the i7. If we have properly designed multicore software, a hyper-threaded quad-core processor will generally perform about the same as a six-core AMD chip.
Most popular high-end machines use six, core CPUs, such as:
- Core i7-3930k and Core i7-3970x: Fastest consumer CPUs on the market with 12 threads and six physical cores.
- Core i7-4770k: Ivy Bridge processor and excellent value.
- Core i7-4770: Recommended minimum processor for traders and an excellent choice for traders on a budget.
My current machine is an Intel six-core i7-990x with 24GB of RAM and a 256GB solid-state hard drive. Newer machines from a custom builder, such as EZ Trading Computers, might come with the Intel Core i7-4960X and benchmark much higher. Because these machines are overclocked to get the best performance, reliability is important. Only purchase from a company that offers a long warranty and technical support. EZ Trading Computers is one such firm, but there are others.

Vogelbach loses weight to increase opportunities
MESA, Ariz. -- Daniel Vogelbach heard the so-called experts say he wasn't a good enough athlete to play first base and would be limited to a role as designated hitter.
They should take a look at Vogelbach now.
MESA, Ariz. -- Daniel Vogelbach heard the so-called experts say he wasn't a good enough athlete to play first base and would be limited to a role as designated hitter.
They should take a look at Vogelbach now.
He reported to the Cubs' Minor League mini-camp this week 30 pounds lighter than one year ago, and ready for a successful sequel to last year when he was part of Class A Advanced Daytona's run, which ended with the Florida State League championship.
"A lot of people have given me compliments," Vogelbach said about his new physique. "It makes you feel good that your hard work paid off. In the long run, I didn't do it for compliments, I did it to help me with baseball. The season this year is big and I'm ready to roll."
Vogelbach, 21, the Cubs' second-round pick in the 2011 First-Year Player Draft, began last season at Class A Kane County, and batted .284 in 114 games with 17 home runs, 21 doubles and 71 RBIs. He was bumped up to Daytona in August, and batted .280 in 17 games with two home runs, two doubles and five RBIs. He started at first in seven games with Daytona, and was the DH in the other 10 and didn't like that.
"In the offseason, I really took it seriously to get myself in shape so there was no question about whether I could play first base or am I only going to be a DH?" Vogelbach, who ranked No. 10 among the Cubs' Top 20 Prospects in 2013, said. "I want to play first base, I want to be on the field. That's the type of player I am, I want to be on the field at all times."
How did he lose the weight? It helped that his brother is an athletic trainer and could guide him. Vogelbach did one hour of cardio every day. Last November at a Cubs mini-camp, he met with a nutritionist.
In the first month, he lost 15 pounds. He dropped seven more in November, and lost 10 more during the holidays. He eliminated bread from his diet, drank lots of water, and ate an overload of grilled chicken, black beans and rice. He's not a big fan of vegetables, so the nutritionist recommended vitamins that would fill that void. Breakfast was either a hard boiled egg or a protein shake.
"It's easier when I'm home with mom cooking," he said. "On the road -- it's easier than you think. There are ways to eat healthy."
The cardio exercise was key. If he wasn't on an elliptical machine, he was on a treadmill or he'd go on a run with his sister in their Florida neighborhood. Every Wednesday, he added a yoga workout, which helped his flexibility.
"It's easy to find an excuse -- 'Oh, I'll do it tomorrow,'" Vogelbach said. "That was my goal, to wake up and do something to make yourself better today."
He didn't ignore baseball. Vogelbach wanted to improve his arm strength, so he started doing exercises in December. In January, he amped up his hitting.
The biggest concern was that Vogelbach would lose power if he lost weight. He belted 17 home runs in the Minors in 2012, 19 last season.
"I think I gained power," Vogelbach said. "I got a lot stronger with Doug [Jarrow, Cubs strength coach] and being home lifting a lot. I'm a lot looser with losing the weight. I can move better, not only in the field but swinging. I actually feel better at the plate than I usually do."
Desi Wilson, Double-A Tennessee's hitting coach, has seen Vogelbach at the mini-camps, and can tell that the core work has improved the infielder's hitting and ability to play first.
"He hasn't lost anything," Wilson said. "He hasn't lost his bat speed or anything. [Getting in better shape] just shows what type of kid he is. He hasn't lost anything -- he's gained."
Vogelbach didn't need anyone to tell him what to do.
"I motivated myself," he said. "I knew I needed to get better at first base, and the first thing I needed to do was lose the weight and get more athletic. That was something I took to heart and that was my goal from the day after we won the championship, to get in shape and get more athletic and come back better this year."
Vogelbach still has some photos of his "before" physique. So does Jarrow, who keeps one on the door of his office at the spring complex.
"He was on an individual nutritional plan and exercise plan, and he went above and beyond everything," Jarrow said. "He was amazing this offseason."
There's only one downside, and it's that Vogelbach's grandmother, Carolyn, isn't around to see him. She passed away this offseason.
"Grandma, she was close," Vogelbach said. "My mom's mom and dad, when they passed away, I was younger and I didn't get to develop a relationship with them. Grandma came to every high school game, she was always there, whether it was in a wheelchair or not. The goal was to let her watch me play on TV one time, and she didn't do it, but I know she's got the best seat in the house now."
Vogelbach comes from a strong family. His mother helped with meals, his siblings helped him train. Now, he's back with his second family, the Cubs, and is a new man. Sure, he helped win a championship last season. That's over with.
"I don't want to win one," he said. "I want to keep going and win a lot. When I get to the big leagues, I want to win a World Series, and I want to win multiple World Series."
His grandmother and the Cubs will be happy to hear that.

Yep. I am about the same size as you, tallish and slim. I got the medium and it fits well. It's a little bit loose around the chest area, but it's not an issue though, especially if you are wearing a layer or two underneath. I just wear a short or long sleeve thick merino wool jersey which gives a nice layering and comfort. When you try the jacket on the sleeves will feel way too long and open, but they size down nicely when you adjust the velcro straps to the right size around your wrists. The jacket is a cycle cut, long tail, high front etc. So it feels a little weird trying it on off the bike, once your on a bike though it all makes sense.
Not a jacket for warm conditions though. If I wear a short sleeve merino jersey with the jacket in temps above 10 degrees C I start to get warm after about 6-7km and have to open up the pit vents and half of the front zip to keep ventilated.

The Magnetic Fields, led by gay singer-songwriter Stephin Merritt, have
been making thoughtful, romantic music for almost two decades. Their
latest release, Realism, is a gentle and wistful listen that deviates greatly from their sonically challenging previous album, Distortion. Merritt spoke to The Advocate
about his latest project, and at times came across as terse and
uncomfortable — two adjectives typically associated with gifted
The Advocate: How would you describe the new album?
Stephin Merritt: "Orc-folk," as in orchestral folk. But I was never one for being sincere about the genre. I did it in a sense of being as wide as possible within being vaguely around examining whatever they call folk. Which is not an endorsement of the marketing category of folk or any particular aesthetic within it.
I read there's influence from Jesus and Mary Chain and Judy Collins — anyone else?
Well, Jesus and Mary Chain was for the last record, Distortion. Jesus and Mary Chain's first album, Psychocandy, sounds like playing a girl group album slowed down during vacuuming. Which is pretty much essentially what Distortion sounds like, so Realism is a counterpoint to that — no feedback, no electric instruments, instruments recorded in what most people would consider a realistic approach.
What was the recording process like?
Was it in a studio?
It was mostly at my home studio, which has several different rooms. I've actually moved since then, but I was in an 800-square-foot cottage which was all recording studio. So there were no parts we did not use, including going outside for recording.
Now, you recently left New York for Los Angeles — is that correct?
Well, a few years ago I moved my studio to Los Angeles.
Where do you live full-time?
Los Angeles and New York.
Are your homes an influence on your writing or music?
don't know that it particularly does influence my writing. But Realism
definitely couldn't have been made without my spending a lot of time
visiting the musical instrument stores of Los Angeles. Because there's
so many South American/Central American instruments that I just
wouldn't have gotten in New York.
"You Must Be Out of Your Mind" is a wonderful kiss-off song, a wonderful song in general.
Thank you.
How autobiographical is your material?
most of it not at all. But it does explain the world in terms of my
record collection; my record collection is such an important part of
who I am that I don't think it's trivial to say.
So what are you listening to now?
now I am listening to a record set of John Foxx and Harold Budd —
translucence and drift music. It's wonderful for being able to listen
to and not listen to.
This is a bit of a generalization, but why do you not think there are not more gay folk singers?
I think it may have to do more with being openly gay than who is gay.
There are plenty of gay men doing quiet music; they just aren't in the
club scene, so they're forced into not being open about it.
a man singing about men in some of your songs — is that a nonissue in
the world you work in? The indie world, quote, unquote.
I'm not in the indie music world. I've had a major record label deal for 10 years.
"Indie" is more of a generalization — I mean in the world where you operate.
Which is what?
In the interactions that you have.
I don't think of myself as being in one particular social scene relating to music.
I guess I'm just asking if it's an issue in your working life.
that I know of. Every five years when I accidentally read my press, I
discover that when people don't like my music they tend to use the word camp. And that's sure a code word if I've ever heard one. So at least
a significant chunk of bad reviews I get are actually specifically
Where does the title come from — Realism?
Well, it's a description of the production style, as is Distortion.
Is there anything else more to it or ...
it doesn't intersect with the lyrics, if that's what you mean. Somebody
pointed out to me a few days ago that an unusual number of mythological
characters are on the album, so there's actually less realism than
Gotcha. And you're taking the album on the road?
Yeah. We're probably just doing half the songs from Realism and a lot of older songs.
And as a performer, what do you prefer? Singing live or recording or writing?
Well, performing live is my least favorite aspect of being a musician.
there are thousands of people staring at you and you can't just walk off
and go to the bathroom. You have to stand there doing what you plan to
do for two hours. And it's pretty much the same thing every night.
Notice that I'm putting this in second-person perspective, which is
what people do in interviews when they're saying uncomfortable truths
about themselves. I particularly don't like touring. It would be nice
if you could then go home after a show ... but you can't.

Tonight at 10 pm ET/PT, Bravo premieres its newest show Million Dollar Decorators which gives us a glimpse into the lives and worlds of the wealthy and fabulous.
Million Dollar Decorators follows Nathan Turner, Jeffrey Alan Marks, Mary McDonald, Martyn Lawrence Bullard, and Kathryn Ireland, five of Los Angeles' highly sought after interior decorators to the rich and famous. The show's first installment includes an apartment redo for Sharon Osbourne where the deadline for completion is pushed way ahead of schedule to accommodate the hectic filming of Sharon's talk show.
The new season will also feature a design overhaul for Daisy Fuentes' home, as well as Martyn transforming Jimmy Choo shoe queen Tamara Mellon's multi-million dollar New York City penthouse. The drama will follow the decorators as they consult with difficult clients, balance personal lives, compete within their industry, and play just as hard as they work.
And in a recent interview with the Futon Critic, Martyn Lawrence Bullard (pictured far right) makes it known he is very confident in his work. When asked if there's a competition between him and the other designers on the show, Martyn responds, "Well, I wouldn't say we run in the same circles. I certainly haven't seen any of them at Elton John's dinner table. [Laughs.] When you get to a certain level, there are only so many high-end clients looking for decorators and so quite often you'll find that you're going up for the same jobs with other people."
Martyn does go on to add that "we're all friends and we've all known each other for a long time. Particularly Kathryn, Nathan and I have all known each other for a long time and been together on vacations and weekends away."
I love how Martyn just name dropped Sir Elton John! Million Dollar Decorators appears to be equal parts Million Dollar Listing, Flipping Out, and (Bravo's far too short-lived) Top Design with Kelly Wearstler and Jonathan Adler. It seems like the perfect design show recipe to me! Watch a sneak peek below!

We (the worldwide AMSAT organizations) did that with AO-40, and that's a big part of the reason why it has been so long between HEO missions. HEO missions take a long time to get ready, and they don't last forever even when they're successful.

As screwed up as our development organization is, engineering is NOT the bottleneck on Eagle. Simplifying the engineering task will not speed up Eagle. A launch is, and will be for the foreseeable future, the bottleneck on all HEO missions. The disarray you see is, in part, a result of the organization casting about desperately for a way to solve the launching (i.e., funding) problem. Simplifying the engineering task could, however, easily cripple the capability of the mission to have a significant effect on amateur radio. Another weak-signal big-antenna SSB/CW transponder will not change the world. A highly optimized digital small-dish system that does an excellent job with high-quality voice and modest-rate data, on the other hand, just might. It's a challenge well worth pursuing. Some people in AMSAT management think that a system like that might actually yield a solution to the launch problem, by impressing the US government with the potential utility of the system. I am skeptical, but I don't have a better idea. > The outlook for HEO is very grim, unless we pool resources (both financial and intellictual) set some milestones and manage to those. The outlook is grim regardless of any resource pooling, unless we find a way to fund a launch. Make no mistake: pooling our paupers' financial resources won't fund a launch. Managing to milestones is all well and good, once enough is known to set sensible milestones. We're not there yet on Eagle.

Superior Court Civil Rules Table of Contents
For purposes of this rule only, the term "complex case" shall mean:
(1) with respect to any case in which the relief sought is monetary damages, a
case wherein there is a realistic possibility the damages awarded could exceed
$250,000.00; and (2) with respect to any case in which relief other than
monetary damage is sought, a case wherein the trial can reasonably be expected
to last more than five trial days.
(b) Upon agreement of the parties, the presiding justice may assign a complex case for intensive mediation. Such assignment may be made at or at any time after the case structuring order has been issued but shall not be made later than 90 days before the trial date except for good cause shown. Assignment of a case to intensive mediation shall not stay, alter, suspend, or delay pretrial discovery, motions, hearings, conferences or trial unless the presiding justice so orders.
(c) The mediator for intensive mediation conducted under this rule shall be an active, senior active or retired superior court justice other than the justice to whom the case has been assigned for trial or who has presided over any pretrial hearings or ruled upon any pretrial motions. The justice who serves as mediator and all persons who participate in the mediation shall have no communication with the justice to whom the case is assigned for trial concerning the mediation or any matter pertaining to the merits of the case. All justices who serve as mediators pursuant to this rule shall have completed an approved mediation training program. The provisions of Rule 32(c)(3) shall apply to all superior court justices who serve as mediators under this rule.
The litigants and counsel must recognize that the neutrals will not be acting as legal advisors or legal representatives. They must further recognize that, because the neutrals are performing quasi-judicial functions and are performing under the auspices of the Court, each such neutral has immunity from suit, and shall not be called as a witness in any subsequent proceeding relating to the parties' negotiations and/or his/her participation, except as set forth in Rule 32(d).
(d) The parties shall be provided at least 30 days advance notice of the date, time and location of the mediation session and of the name of the justice who will be serving as the mediator. Any party claiming grounds to recuse the justice assigned as mediator, shall file a motion for such relief within 10 days after the date of the notice scheduling the mediation. Any such motion shall be referred for ruling to the justice assigned as the mediator and said justice's ruling on the motion shall be final and not subject to further review. In the event the justice assigned as mediator grants the motion to recuse, the case shall be reassigned to another justice for mediation. Mediation sessions shall be held at a court facility but, subject to the availability of facilities, normally shall be held in a location other than the court wherein the case will be tried.
