Indian challenge ends in Indian Open Super Series
It was curtains for India in the Indian Open Super Series after young shuttlers Sourabh Verma and RMV Gurusai Datt suffered straight-game defeats in the quarterfinals of the men's singles at the Siri Fort Complex on Friday.
It was curtains for India in the Indian Open Super Series after young shuttlers Sourabh Verma and RMV Gurusai Datt suffered straight-game defeats in the quarterfinals of the men's singles at the Siri Fort Complex on Friday.
Giant killer Sourabh, who had beaten Athen Olympics bronze medallist Sony Kuncoro of Indonesia and seventh seed Kenichi Tago of Japan on his way to the quarterfinals, suffered a 7-21 8-21 defeat against World number one Lee Chong Wei of Malaysia.
While, Datt went down fighting to world number 20 Hu Yun of Hong Kong 10-21, 16-21 in a 35-minute match. Datt had beaten fourth seed Boonsak Ponsana of Thailand and Yuhan Tan of Belgium in the first two rounds here.
It was always going to be a David versus Goliath battle and hopes started to fade the moment Sourabh and Lee took the court as the top seed Malaysian toyed with the junior player, playing the first Super Series of his career.
Sourabh's challenge lasted for the initial six points as after that Lee just toyed with his opponent and raced away with the first game. The Beijing Olympics silver medallist was more ruthless in the second as he tired out Sourabh by making him run all across the court, playing an array of strokes to pocket the game comfortably.
"I am disappointed as I couldn't play to my potential. I know I can play better. I couldn't adjust to the court and pace of the game. He had a lot of variations and he was using the drops and smashes very well. A lot of my smashes were going out. I need to work harder," Sourabh said.
However, the Madhya Pradesh lad said he has taken a lot of confidence from the tournament.
"It has given me a lot of confidence. The guys who are outside the top 10 bracket, they are beatable but for the top 10 players, I have to put on a lot of hard work. Gopi sir has told me I have to play more international tournament.
"From here I go back to Hyderabad and then sir will decide what are the tournaments which I can win and according I will play," he added.
However, Lee had some words of encouragement for Sourabh and said with a little bit of experience, he can be a good player in future.
"He is a strong player. He is a junior and he has beaten some top players here. He will learn with experience and will do well in future," he said.
Asked about his game today, Lee said he just wanted to enjoy and had a good match.
"I tried my best and enjoyed myself. I am playing the Hong Kong player and I will do my best to win the Indian Super Series," he said.
Other Indian in fray, Datt also found the going tough against world number 20 Hu and succumbed to a lot of unforced errors to crash out of the event.
Hu will take on Lee in the semifinals on Saturday. After losing the first game rather quickly, Datt had conjured up hopes of another upset when he led 11-5 but Hu's deft net play and smashes left the Indian gasping as the Hong Kong player first drew parity at 14-14 before finishing the game, conceding just two more points.
"I didn't get the length right. He has a lazy kind of style and played his strokes late. He was better at the nets. I felt the shuttler was a little slow, I played my best but he was better today," Datt said.
"I should take the confidence ahead and be more consistent. I have to work on my strength and endurance. I am leaving for Malaysia tomorrow. Hopefully I will do well there," he added.
Among others, second seed Indonesian Taufik Hidayat was sent packing by sixth seed Korean Sung Hwan Park 17-21 17-21 in 46 minutes to set up a clash with Peter Hoeg Gade in the semifinals on Saturday.
The third seed Dane beat Takuma Ueda 23-21 21-10 in another quarterfinals of the men's singles.
Taufik blamed his quarterfinals loss to food problems and said he was not left with enough power.
"I am not able to eat properly and so was not fully in power today. I was low on energy and it was an off day for me. Next I will be playing in the Malaysian Grand Prix," he said.
In the women's singles, Sayaka Sato of Japan beat Jiayuan Chen 18-21 21-15 21-15 to set up a semifinal clash with third seed Youn Joo Bae of Korea, who defeated seventh seed Jie Yao of the Netherlands 21-13 21-18 in another match.
Fourth seed Pui Yin Yip of Hong Kong will face Porntip Buranaprasertsuk of Thailand in the semifinals. Pui beat Inthanon Ratchanok 21-17 21-15, while Porntip got the better off Juan Gu of Singapore 21-16 23-21.

So Banister blustered in and he unleashed his scroll of changes du jour. I was never quite sure why he printed these things out, they were in my e-mail, and especially why he printed them in scroll fashion. But it did give his entrances a certain flair, like returning from the mountain with the law. Thank goodness the stone printers were prohibitive on cost, otherwise these notes could become a serious weapon when the sessions went south. The first proclamation to come forth from the lips of Bannister Crawler were:
"First, the scene with the girl, white jumpsuit, parachute, and burro has to come right out. That time goes to more product shots."
Some things never change.
"Who's idea was that anyway" demanded Bannister.
Well the likely candidate was the original Art Director since she had been fired soon after this project began, though I miss her because I liked the way she thought, and Bannister was all over that suggestion.
"Good thinking" proclaimed Bannister. "let's get cracking!"
And this is where we went:
Dingy room with a large circular bar that dominated the space leaving only a narrow path behind the patrons seated at the bar. Perched at one corner on top of the bar was a show platform upon which was a slowly undulating forty year old stripper dancing on the mock up stage. Pondering the cesarian scar on the stripper are two young men in their very early twenties with generic bottles of swill with "Beer" printed on the label. This is their first foray into the adult drinking world and it ain't a pretty sight. The grizzled old men are either half asleep at the bar or arguing about some now meaningless point of political Kabuki theatre. That is except for the few with their tongues lolling out of toothless mouths while leering up at the performer. Our two initiates also seem focused on the tiny dancer but have been drinking all afternoon and are now moving into the heart of the night mostly befuddled while dealing with the conflicting emotions of MILF lust and Oedipus complexes long buried. Through the bar door swims a shimmering, undulating, and technicolour neon tropical fish with an extreme femine form. Bright red quivering lips encircling a seductively round mouth, slender neck leading to soft shoulders and willowy arms tipped with delicate hands gesturing smoothly around an absurdly tiny waist which expands to a superbly shaped behind before resulting in the archetypical mermaid tail. Yet the whole fishy package is topped with two heaving luminescent breasts. As she slides around and between the two young men softly brushing faces with slender fingers, breasts against their arms, and tail lightly flowing up their inner thighs the womafish has certainly drawn their attention away from the aging stripper who just moments ago had their undivided attention. Holding the large containers of caffeinated Pumps Beer in front of the heaving, glistening breasts the fish tart says to the lads, "Grab a hold of these and steer me like a cow."
The lads are transported by the fish to a Eurotrash nightclub where there are hundreds of women their age, in the prime of their hard bodied youth, dancing with abandon. Huge Bacchanal on the order of the Matrix Reloaded rave. These two lads are happily pounding down the caffeine laced beer, and from the glowing faces of the women surrounding them you can tell it will be their night to remember. Fast montage into a frenzied and blur of images till we come abruptly to the the final scene with lads passed out on top of an aquarium with tropical fish lazily swimming about. One fish has a twinkle in it's eye and winks at the two young men who look at each other and then at the camera and exclaim "Woof!"
Tag Line:
Pump Beer
Looks like a fish, swims like a fish, steers like a cow
I just looked at Bannister and he looked at me.
"Before you say it, yes we bought the rights to that tag line, and the client likes it." was all Bannister had to say. We now had to make it happen.
With that Cyrus Plush rolled in with Auroa Mora on his arm followed but the rest of his entourage and announced "Yes ladies and gentlemen. The research shows it is all about the fish."
My head hurt now.

QB Aaron Rodgers and the offense clicked on their first series in the no-huddle offense. And while the line seemed to sputter in the next few series, and some of the timing was off between Rodgers and his receivers, the first half showed what the offense will be able to do. Even a little of RB Eddie Lacy is a lot for defenses; he played only on the first series, and rushed six times for 36 yards and a touchdown.
Back up RB DuJuan Harris also got lots of touches and performed exceptionally well, finishing with 56 yards on 12 carries. He also had two receptions for 42 yards, with a long reception/run of 31 yards. He showed quickness and power. The Packers will need to find a way beyond just kickoff returns to get Harris on the field.
Rookie TE Richard Rodgers also had a good game. Back up QB Matt Flynn didn't have a particularly good or bad evening...it jwas ust kind of...meh. It appeared to this writer that he focused on each receiver he was going to throw to right from the start. QB Scott Tolzein came in just before the end of the third quarter and played very well. He was making quick reads and had zip on the ball. It's always been the opinion of this writer that Tolzein has the better arm between he and Flynn and if he could just get some more playing time he would be the primary back up to Rodgers. I've said it before here and will do so again: the Packers will keep three QBs on their roster. There is a much bigger upside to Tolzein than Flynn and the Packers need to hang on to that.
As for the defense, they acquitted themselves quite well, too, holding the Raiders -- who played many of their starters into the second half -- to just 7 points until garbage time. A couple players stood out, including Julius Peppers and Clay Matthews. No surprises there. The secondary seemed to do well, particularly Davon House. When back ups entered the game, it seemed as if Oakland was targeting rookie CB Demetri Goodson. He struggled. Given the competition in the secondary, I'd be surprised if he isn't released in the first round of roster cuts.

The major negative to come out of the game, we learned yesterday, was the loss for the season of NT B.J. Raji who tore his right biceps apparently during the first quarter. The implications for the Packers and Raji are big, as this story from the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel indicates. The Packers younger players will have to fill the void. They certainly have good options there. As the article indicates, it would be surprising if the Pack were to re-sign either Ryan Pickett or Johnny Jolly at this point, relying instead on second-year players Josh Boyd, free-agent acquisition Letroy Guion (who has yet to even practice because of hamstring injury) and undrafted rookie Mike Pennel.
While not a nose tackle, another young player of note over the last several weeks has been rookie LB Jayrone Elliott, who had three sacks in four plays against St. Louis and followed that performance up with another game in which he made his presence known. I expect Elliott to be on the final roster given these performances.
What goes on at a Packers preseason game?
The Packers answered that question themselves, putting together this video.
I can also share that while fans were out in full force (more than 73,000 were in attendance!), along with all the tailgating, etc. that goes along with it, the crowd still felt a bit subdued. Attribute that to the fact that it was a game that didn't count, in which the starters didn't play very long, and the weather was a sultry 83 degrees around kickoff time with humidity in the vicinity of 80 percent or so, as well.
However, for the first time, yours truly was able to grab tickets inside the (relatively) new indoor club level. I have to tell you, it spoils you. For face value of $222 per ticket, it should. (Fortunately, what I paid through one of the online ticket exchanges was far less than that.) But for a night, my wife and I were able to share in a bit of the bounty of these seats. You enter through the Bellin Health gate on the north side of the stadium and take elevators up. Once there, there is an abundance of upscale food and drink choices, with prices to match, of course. You sit inside an air-conditioned seating area, in very comfortable and cushy seats, with order-takers and servers to make the food and beverage runs for you if you wish. There were a few glitches on that end, it seemed. After all, this was the working staff's first home game, as well, and there were some bugs in the system here and there. (One of the servers even told us this would be his first and last game doing this gig.) But the intentions are good, that's for sure.
One of the other pleasures of the indoor seating was flat-panel TVs which showed the live play as well as the replays, of course. Given that we were in the north endzone, it was nice to have that TV view. But instead of having to listen to the usual folks on TV coverage, we instead heard -- thankfully -- the play-by-play of 620WTMJ radio announcers Wayne Larrivee and Larry McCarren. That's as good as it gets.
One of the downsides of this seating level, however, is to get access to the Packers Pro Shop, you have to basically go half way back around the stadium, down and below the Atrium level. Not convenient. At all. For the money the team spent re-designing the Pro Shop and this stadium, this is terrible traffic flow and customer access. When I mentioned this to several red-vested Lambeau Field staff members, they each agreed. It was almost as if the architects were designing only with outside entry in mind; to heck with those trying to enter from within the stadium. Really poor planning in this regard.
I've posted a photo below of our view during the game. It really doesn't do it justice. If you haven't been to Lambeau Field since all the additions, you owe it to yourself to go. If you've never been there, definitely go. If the best you can do is to take a tour of the stadium, spring for the $20 version; a young couple we met from Toronto had done that a few days earlier and raved about it.
It's getting close, Packer fans. That first game against Seattle will be here in about 10 days or so. It looks as if the Pack is in good form going into that opener. But we know the Seahawks will be, too. They are the champs...for now.
Go Pack Go!!!

This & That
It's Black Friday today. I hope my US readers had a lovely Thanksgiving. I had a wonderful time. As for today, I've been doing a little shopping from home. I was not feeling brave enough to fight the crowds.
The Free Romance Books on Kindle group is really picking up steam. I have started visiting every day. I definitely recommend it, and keep in mind that many authors are offering free epub formats as well.
I have finally found the image that will be used on the cover of Call to Attraction. It does a great job of depicting Peter and Sabrina. You'll see it as soon as the cover is finished.

Timothy Mayopoulos, chief executive officer for the government-sponsored enterprise Fannie Mae, said Monday giving a timeframe for when the common securitization platform will be completed is difficult considering today's state of affairs in housing finance.
However, housing finance reform is underway in Washington D.C., and the GSEs are confident they can deal with the changes as they come, even as they differ on the level of commitment from private-label investors.
The CEO responded to an audience question during a Q&A session called, "GSE, Federal Home Loan Bank and Ginnie Mae Update." The discussion occurred during the Mortgage Bankers Association 100th Annual Convention & Expo going on right now in the nation's capital.
Mayopoulos is participating in the event, along with counterpart, Donald Layton, CEO of Freddie Mac. Layton, who did not share the stage with Mayopoulos, went first and outlined four necessary reforms currently underway.
The biggest change is the shift from an originate-to-hold to an originate-to-distribute model. "Private capital is already beginning to take over in a real, discernible way," Layton said. The advent of risk-sharing deals is helping this along, both CEOs agreed.
Layton said that whatever form housing reform and the common securitization platform may take, it will do so with appropriate timing and will not harm the infrastructure of Freddie Mac. Instead, the reform will enhance operations at the bond issuer.
He also sought to reassure audience members with takeaways such as, "We intend to provide you with the liquidity you expect for many years," and "We plan to be here for probably a very long time."
Mayopoulos also shifted into the role of reassurance chief during his speech. "Conservatorship marked the end of the old Fannie Mae, that company no longer exists and it's not coming back," he said. Mayopoulos reminded the audience that the GSEs and Ginnie Mae provided $13 trillion in liquidity in the last five years.
He did add that private investors are growing more active, as did Layton, but there is no indication that this money can support the mortgage industry before the common securitization platform is fully implemented.
"While people are understandably focused on the end state of our future system, we need to be at least thoughful about the transition," he said. "How do we get from here to there?"
"We built a prototype and [still] need to build it out," Mayopoulos said when discussing the progress toward a common securitization platform. If so, then this is still ahead of schedule by a few months.
Theodore Tozer, president of Ginnie Mae, said systems at the government-guaranteed mortgage bond issuer also are being updated in a big way. It's part of the overall modernization plan that's now two years underway.

I am super excited because it's getting to be that time of year when I kick into cookie-producing overdrive! I took a break from giving out cookies as gifts last year (photo above is from 2009) because I didn't have time, but did manage to participate in the Lower East Side Girls Club Holiday Bake Sale. This year though, it's going to be different--I'm getting a head start and planning everything out (and in fact, I've already made my first batch of dough to be tucked away in the freezer--double ginger snaps!)
For New Yorkers, there's the NYC Annual Holiday Cookie Swap tickets here to benefit Cookies for Kids' Cancer. I'll be attending this one for the first time, and it sounds like it's going to be a lot of fun. I mean, barbecue, homemade cookies, and a bunch of bloggers, how can you go wrong? Go buy your ticket, but hurry up because there were only 13 left last time I checked--and if you recognize me, say hi!
For those of you not in NYC, there's also the Great Food Blogger Cookie Swap, a cookie exchange by mail--and yes, I'm participating in this one too! (I know, I may be a little cookie-crazy by the end of all this.) You have until Nov. 15th to sign up, and this sounds like it's going to be good fun too! The basic idea is that you sign up and then receive the names and addresses of 3 bloggers who you will send a dozen homemade cookies to. In return, you'll get 3 boxes of homemade goodies! Perfect for all those holiday gatherings...
Now the only question is what cookies should I make?? The possibilities are endless.
Giant chocolate chip cookies?
Green tea shortbread?
Or maybe the ever popular Domo cookies....decisions, decisions!!! Happy cookie-baking (and eating)!!
***Edited to add 11/8/11***
Ooh, and one more! The 2nd Annual international holiday Cookie Exchange, hosted by Lori of Fake Food Free and Andrea of Food Embrace! This is a virtual swap, meaning you get a recipe from a fellow food blogger, then you bake and post about it (this also means you get to hoard the cookies to yourself, if you so choose...greedy? meeeee?). And you only have until Nov. 10th to sign up, which is this Thursday! So get cracking!!

Way to jump in there head first Partridge! It will be interesting to see whether his recruiting chops translate on the next level.
December 6th, 2015 at 11:30 AM ^
Are we looking at some of that Florida speed with Jones? Our single biggest weakness , IMHO, is lack of speed at LB and DE. I can't count how many times our LB corp took 4.5 speed angles when they are 4.75 backers.
December 6th, 2015 at 11:34 AM ^
not wrapping guys up and bringing them down. Arm tackles don't work well against guys like Elliot.
December 6th, 2015 at 1:54 PM ^
you can't get there. Either can't get off a block, put in poor position, taking a poor angle, or just not enough speed/acceleration/agility.
Only good arm tackle I can remember is when Peppers tripped up Leidner and preventing a TD run.
December 6th, 2015 at 12:12 PM ^
Meh, from what I understand, it wasn't so much a speed problem as it was our injured DL. We had plenty of speed against spread teams early in the season. Speed is always a plus, but it is not critical at the LB position.
December 6th, 2015 at 12:24 PM ^
You know we had more that 3 DL healthy for that OSU game, though
December 6th, 2015 at 1:06 PM ^
to you back. Speed kills. I'd take speed and quickness over not having it any day in the linebacking corps. Morgan and Bolden are smart and skilled enough players but they are very slow. That injured defensive line did damn good the week before agains PSU. PSU didn't have the OSU line but whatever. The linebackers were a handicap in The Game. If UM would've had two stud hitting and lightning fast/quick SEC type cats(linebackers) vs. Zeke and Barrett, the outcome is way different. Although that's just my opinion and I've been wrong before!
December 6th, 2015 at 6:20 PM ^
We need this guy and he will play early - mid season next year he will be 2 deep and special teams making a contribution to getting to the B1G title.
December 6th, 2015 at 11:34 AM ^
Do you have to buckle up on the partridge bus?
December 6th, 2015 at 11:38 AM ^
and I haven't seen it anywhere on here yet. This is Donnie Corley when he received his player of the year trophy. http://teamstre.am/1IGGw7P
December 6th, 2015 at 11:44 AM ^
He just pushed back his announcement. He was supposed to announce Tuesday. His father is pushing hard for Michigan.
December 6th, 2015 at 3:38 PM ^
Listen to your dad, young man.
December 6th, 2015 at 11:50 AM ^
Lost a bet to a friend... Had to wear a bucknut jersey again last week.
December 6th, 2015 at 12:18 PM ^
Not saying he won't pick OSU, but if he had already made up his mind I doubt this would be the way he would announce it.
December 6th, 2015 at 1:51 PM ^
Buckeye insiders are saying he's not going to pick osu. Just wearing the free gear you get on visits, I would guess.
December 6th, 2015 at 11:44 AM ^
Jones is a guy whose offers don't match his star rating. What makes me nervous about Jones and Terrance Davis is that we have been their leader for the entire process, yet they haven't pulled the trigger. I'm worried that the distance may be a factor with Jones.
December 6th, 2015 at 11:45 AM ^
Let's see if he is a closer.
December 6th, 2015 at 11:49 AM ^
Chris a solid recruiter. The job he did at Paramus Catholic in the NJ catholic school league was outstanding. He convinced Peppers to leave competitor Don Bosco in his junior year and the rest is history ... more recruits followed and Paramus won the league title and became a national high school power.
Chris played LB at Lafayette College and coached there upon graduation as well as at the Citadel. Taking the recruiter job at Michigan was a risk, but he saw the chance to learn from NFL caliber coaches. I would bet that Harbaugh and Mattison have big plans for Chris. Would not shock me to see them develop Chris into a solid DC within 3-5 years.
Time to lock-down Jones and then Bush ... we need these guys in the depth chart next year. And I think Bush senior is going to be the next recruiting coordinator at Michigan to be announced after signing day in February. Harbaugh needs to replace DJ's FLA access and Bush senior is a lot like Chris having developed an outstanding FLA high school program. Plus Bush has NFL pedigree which helps a ton. Maybe better than having DJ who is a super high-energy guy but not an NFL guy.
It feels like Harbaugh is going for NFL talent for the DC job or to promote someone from within. Maybe have Co-DCs for the bowl game being Jackson and Mattison and then decide after the NFL season concludes. I mean preparation for the bowl game needs to start on Monday so someone has to take charge pronto.
December 6th, 2015 at 2:55 PM ^
He had quit his job at Paramus to work at Rutgers and that fell through. Meanwhile Paramus had hired one of Harbaugh's former players in his place. He was unemployed without much in the way of coaching opportunities.
December 6th, 2015 at 3:19 PM ^
What was his job to be at Rutgers?
December 6th, 2015 at 6:12 PM ^
Chris is an ascending coach that quit his job at Paramus to better himself. Rutgers was forced to renege on his offer from pressure by the other Catholic schools in NJ who feed Rutgers. I am from the east coast and folks in the Midwest don't realize the nature of the NJ catholic league. These are national power high school football programs. Bergen Catholic, Don Bosco and Paramus place maybe 30 D1 prospects per annum in college - they recruit the best players from the Mid-Atlantic region and they travel nationally by airplane to play schools in FLA, Texas and Cali. Chris came in and upset the establishment apple cart. Paramus was a distant third in that pecking order forever and he jumped the establishment by getting Peppers to transfer to Paramus. That pissed them off as is evident from what came down for him at Rutgers. I am telling you we are lucky to pick him up. If he helps us get the best from those NJ catholic league schools that is a big national advantage. Plus, this guy has head coaching experience at the highest level of national power high schools. These are not like the public high schools in Michigan, they recruit and are stocked with D1 talent.
December 6th, 2015 at 11:49 AM ^
Even if the move isn't permanent, you get your recruiting guy on the road rather than waiting for players to come to him.
I didn't understand why people thought this was mean if it wasn't his future job. No, i's great experience for him and it helps the team..it's a win-win. It's also do in literally EVERY D1 sport around the country.
I've been at smaller schools where graduate assistants are elevated to full time coaches until the assistant coach is replaced. How awesome is that to have on your resume?
December 6th, 2015 at 1:16 PM ^
To compete against the elite teams we need speed and quickness at the linebacker position. I like the effort given my Bolden and Morgan but they just didn't have the speed to cover against good teams that run the zone read. Harbaugh knows they need more speed at the linebacker position and will most certainly address this shortcoming.
December 6th, 2015 at 5:19 PM ^
obviously its all about playing fast. its nice to have guys that can win track meets but doesnt mean much if the speed doesnt translate to the field.
quickness, explosion, instincts and leverage are massive at the LB spot (like most positions in football), as are diagnosis and recognition skills, and the strength and ability to take on and shed blocks (or slip when necessary), find your fit, track the ball and then drop the hammer. that may sound simplistic but its not (at all) - tough to consistently do play in and play out (especially if guys lack some natural abilities, both physical and mental). a split second of hesitation, a half step in the wrong direction, losing leverage, failing to get your facemask across, etc, is all it takes some times, particularly vs great competition (and theres only so many truly elite athletes who can consistently make up for those errors).
a guy like chris spielman is a good example of playing fast at LB. he might not have won many races in his day but he played fast and downhill, had great instincts, understood angles and leverage, knew how and when to engage / disengage blockers (and in the process force the back to commit), and then usually found his way to the ball and finished with sound tackles. spielman wasnt an nfl star (though he mostly got the job done) but he was great college LB.
agree in principle with your comment, just saying its more than just "speed" - its being (physically and mentally) able to and being allowed to play fast
December 6th, 2015 at 2:04 PM ^
Per all the comments on this thread about increasing speed at LB position - does Michigan State have SEC speed in their LB core? Does Iowa? Those two teams, MSU in particular really, did a very good job shutting down the zone plays Michigan struggled with. Maybe the MSU and Iowa linebackers are faster runners or quicker athletes than Bolden/Morgan/Ross but it doesn't look that way to me.
December 6th, 2015 at 2:12 PM ^
It is the scheme that makes MSU linebackers look so good. MSU shoots their linebackers aggressively into their run gaps as soon as they see run action allowing them to play fast and physical and avoid blocks...we ask our linebackers to read and react and in turn eat a lot of blocks

Venturi Buckeye Bullet breaks 300mph Hydrogen speed record
I always like seeing this cars that look more like rockets, designed to do nothing more than just go really, really, really fast.
This is one of the latest of these super-fast vehicles, known as the Venturi Buckeye Bullet. It was built by student engineers, at Ohio State University's Center for Automotive Research.
It also runs on hydrogen, and it just achieved an average speed of 307.7 mph at a two-run pass at the Bonneville Salt Flats on August 24.
I must admit that I have never been to the Salt Flats before, but if this picture is what they look like, then it looks like a frozen over ocean. I like how the Venturi Buckeye Bullet looks a lot like a shark in the midst of these frozen-over waters.
As for the "car", for lack of a better word, is about 36 feet long and is only 1.5 inches from the ground. The battery pack in the Venturi Buckeye Bullet V 2.5, is capable of providing "instantaneous power of more than 600 kW. The pack reportedly uses 1,600 cells'.
I believe that the speed record for this particular vehicle is the fastest for any hydrogen-based vehicle. I have heard that the actual land speed record is over 700 miles per hour, with a non-hydrogen vehicle.

The Gaming Solutions approach provides powerful, cost effective systems and services to the regulated lottery and gaming markets. We are a one-stop shop for new lottery and gaming setups.
Our extensive experience from the industry covers everything from business strategy to operations. It includes responsibility for large projects; from games development and implementation to infrastructure and setup of complete lotteries. We have proven innovations and first-in-industry products. Based on our experience we have developed a phased approach:
- In the first phase we are working with partners to secure the license and evaluate the potential for a lottery in the jurisdiction. A successful result from this phase is to acquire an agreement/license with the authorities for establishing a lottery.
- In the second phase, we develop a proper business-plan focusing on the size of the market (including answering who, how and where), finding the likely games and the way they will be played, and impact on technology.
- The third phase we do a soft-launch, that starts with tests and ends with starting a profitable business. A small local organization established, a few retailers, make the needed changes in technology and run the game(s).
- The forth phase is called the "High Growth phase" where the "easy potential is to be taken out". In this period the lottery will have profitable strong growth.
- In the last phase we are operating a mature lottery. The market and our sales is growing, but the growth is more costly. However new games etc could have positive effects.
Modern cost-efficient technology, comprising systems and services from our partners. Included in our partner's offer is an extension to the traditional lottery networks with Internet and mobile phones as self-service devices, and also low-priced POS (point of sales) units e.g. smart phones and payment terminals.

The commanders of the Donetsk army have asked the Ukrainian side to let them evacuate people from Uglegorsk. The operation is supposed to take a few hours.
After 12-hour negotiations, the Ukrainian commanders promised not to fire at Uglegorsk till 2:00 p.m.
The request was sent on Monday with no immediate response received from the Ukrainian side. So, the Donetsk side began evacuating people from the outskirts.
According to LifeNews, almost 3,000 individuals – mostly old people and children - are leaving Uglegorsk for the moment. Some of them are in cars, others are walking with their bags in hands.▼ читать продолжение новости ▼
The self-defenders have given them a couple of buses. Some of the people will be sent to their relatives from other areas of the Donetsk People's Republic, with the rest first to be settled in Makeyevka and then to be sent to local boarding houses.
According to EAD, on Jan 30 the self-defenders took control of Uglegorsk and planted a flag of the Donetsk People's Republic on the roof of the local city hall. In the meantime, some Ukrainian forces continued firing at the center from outskirts. If the self-defenders neutralize them, they will take control of Svetlodar-Debaltsevo roadway – a route used for supply of arms and food to the Ukrainian army. Earlier, Lugansk armed forces blocked one more supply line near Debaltsevo.

The 29-year-old suffered stab wounds to his hand, stomach and back in the Sugar Lounge in the city centre.
Greater Manchester Police have said they do not believe the stabbing was a random act.
Wallwork, a former Manchester United player, is currently on loan to Barnsley from West Brom.
The attack happened on Thursday not long after Wallwork arrived at the Whitworth Street West bar and nightclub, a favourite with celebrities and footballers.
He was with his girlfriend when the attack happened.
Wallwork was given first aid by staff, before an ambulance arrived. He is now recovering in Manchester Royal Infirmary.
"Detectives believe this was not a random attack and are continuing to make enquiries to trace the offender."
Wallwork came though the youth system at Manchester United and was sent to Carlisle, Stockport and Royal Antwerp on loan.
However, his spell in Belgium was marred by controversy when he was banned from football for life after he allegedly attacked a referee.
That punishment was reduced on appeal to just a one-year sanction which related only to Belgium.
Three years later, Wallwork joined West Brom on a free transfer after making 28 appearances for United.
Although he was given a new two-year contract in August, he fell out of favour when new manager Tony Mowbray arrived and was allowed to go out on loan to Barnsley.

Water-quality, bed-sediment, and biological data (October 1994 through September 1995) and statistical summaries of data for streams in the upper Clark Fork basin, Montana
Open-File Report 96-432
- Document: Document (pdf)
- Download citation as: RIS | Dublin Core
Water, bed sediment, and biota were sampled in streams from Butte to below Missoula as part of a program to characterize aquatic resources in the upper Clark Fork basin of western Montana. Sampling stations were located on the Clark Fork and major tributaries. Water-quality data were obtained periodically at 16 stations during October 1994 through September 1995 (water year 1995). Data for twelve bed-sediment and eleven biological stations were obtained in August 1995. The primary constituents analyzed were trace elements associated with mine tailings from historical mining and smelting activities. Water-quality data include concentrations of major ions, trace element, and suspended sediment in stream samples collected periodically during water year 1995. Daily values of streamflow, suspended- sediment concentrations in the fine-grained and bulk fractions. Biological data include trace- element concentrations in whole-body tissue of aquatic benthic insects. Quality-assurance data are reported for analytical results of water, bed sediment, and biota. Statistical summaries of water-quality, bed-sediment, and biological data are provided for the period of record at each station since 1985.

Google is already testing its next Android KitKat update, according to a tweet posted by @LLabTooFeR, who has accurately reported on the mobile industry in the past. The update, Android 4.4.3, allegedly carriers the build number KTU72B and may fix a number of things, but will reportedly also focus on a camera bug in the Nexus 5. That phone has been constantly knocked for having a mediocre camera, and earlier updates have tried to fix issues.
In fact, way back in December Google launched Android 4.4.1 which was supposed to clean up the Nexus 5 camera. It still isn't quite up to snuff, however, and earlier this month Google promised that an update with a fix for the camera was on the way. We think it's also possible that Google could just issue an update for that specific phone, instead of dedicating an entire Android release for a single device, so it's possible there are other performance enhancements and tweaks under the hood that we just don't know about yet.
So far it sounds like Android 4.4.3 is relatively minor, which means you won't have to fret if you're picking up a new flagship that might not receive an update for many more months. The next major update probably won't come until June, when Google may introduce it during its annual I/O developers conference.

As a writer, I do a lot of reading, and it is amazing some of the things I see out there. I won't refute by name, but idea, and the idea I don't get is John Lackey.
Yes, I think it would be fantastic if the Mets got him, but I see three teams ahead of the them: the Rangers, Yankees and Angels.
Lackey's preference if he leaves are the Rangers. The Angels would like to keep him, but might balk at his asking price. Then, of course, there are the Yankees, who, if they really want him will get him if he's open to New York.
When we spoke of the Mets' real rivals during the World Series – Phillies or Yankees? – there was one thing we neglected to mention. And, that is the Mets really compete with the Yankees in terms of attracting free agents.
If the two teams went head-to-head for a player, the Yankees, because of their willingness to blow people out of the water, would win. Carlos Beltran was the exception, but his preference wasn't the Yankees. He didn't want the attention.
However, his agent, Scott Boras, even with getting his price from the Mets, went back to the Yankees. The Yankees seem to have a tacit agreement with agents that before they sign that they give the them a chance to beat that offer.
The Yankees went to a three-man rotation in the World Series because they didn't have a fourth starter in which they could rely. They'll be looking for pitching this winter, and it will start with Lackey.

The Architects Registration Board is to get tough on architects attempting to practice without a Part 3 professional qualification.
The ARB is planning to tighten up on Brussels regulations which allow architects from across the European Union to practice in the UK without an equivalent qualification to Part 3. The ARB is afraid that UK architects without full qualifications could try to use the regulations to gain registration here.A statement on what form the clampdown will take is expected later this week and comes after an unnamed British 'architect', without Part 3 attempted to register to practice in the UK, citingthe European law. The law is aimed at guaranteeing mobility for professionals across the 15 member states and ARB chief executive Robin Vaughan said that the measures would be aimed at under-qualified British architects abusing the system rather than European architects who, he said, were typically well-qualified and experienced for practice in the UK.
The problem was discussed at length during the ARB's board meeting on 18 July, where the board also agreed to tackle the image of its complaints-handling procedure. The ARB's professional conduct committee (PCC), which tries architects accused of misconduct, has appeared under repeated attack from architects who have come before it and now the board has agreed to take steps to address this.
'Many cases have been misexplained, ' Vaughan said.
'We have a lot of work to do on explaining what the rules are.' The ARB is planning to focus on the way the PCC works in its annual report at the end of August to communicate its goals.
The board also heard that complaints and enquiries about architects received by the ARB totalled 800 during 1999.

Henry Homesweet is Tom Sherlock – a Norwich-based micro-musician whose work explores the musical potential of outmoded technology, in a bid to stimulate creativity through the technical limitations of obsolete hardware. In 2008, he released Palm Trance, a genre-defining chip-tune album, which consolidated his reputation as one of the foremost innovators in the emerging 8-bit music scene. It has given him the opportunity to take his music to live audiences all over the world, delivering eclectic live sets using Nintendo Game Boys as a substitute for DJ decks, cranking out lo-fi synchronized techno and electro direct from the chip.
"His songs are an immense blend between heavy disco harsh with some seriously blood pumping anthems in the mixer, what with "Until I Sleep", "DanceFloor64" and the massively popular "Simple Pleasures" (which at the time of writing had over 300,000 listeners on MySpace). Henry can bring chiptunes to the mainstream in the UK" – The NPCs

Na próxima Quarta-feira, dia 8 de Abril, pelas 18h15, o Cineclube FDUP apresenta Jubilee (1978), de Derek Jarman. A sessão realiza-se na sala 0.01 da FDUP e a entrada é, como habitualmente, gratuita.
(...) In a sense, Jarman was expressing similar nihilistic views to those of Johnny Rotten in God Save the Queen. Neither believed in the English disease that the political philosopher of Britain's decline Tom Nairn described as "the glamour of backwardness". Jarman told the Guardian's Nicholas de Jongh in February 1978: "We have now seen all established authority, all political systems, fail to provide any solution - they no longer ring true."
Jubilee teems with scenes that switch queasily between juvenile theatrics and droolingly imagined savagery. The girl punk gang go on a killing spree, suffocating lovers in plastic sheets and murdering entertainers. Time Out magazine, in an otherwise positive review, charged that the film's "determined sexual inversion (whereby most women become freakish 'characters', and men loose-limbed sex objects) comes to look disconcertingly like a misogynist binge". For punk historian Jon Savage, the misogyny was the point: "Those scenes are about that kind of cruelty which was so evident at the time. It doesn't endorse it. In fact it doesn't endorse anything very much." (...)
O texto completo, aqui.
When Queen Elizabeth I asks her court alchemist to show her England in the future, she's transported 400 years to a post-apocalyptic wasteland of roving girl gangs, an all-powerful media mogul, fascistic police, scattered filth, and twisted sex. With Jubilee, legendary British filmmaker Derek Jarman channeled political dissent and artistic daring into a revolutionary blend of history and fantasy, musical and cinematic experimentation, satire and anger, fashion and philosophy. With its uninhibited punk petulance and sloganeering, Jubilee brings together many cultural and musical icons of the time, including Jordan, Toyah Willcox, Little Nell, Wayne County, Adam Ant, and Brian Eno (with his first original film score), to create a genuinely unique, unforgettable vision. Ahead of its time and often frighteningly accurate in its predictions, it is a fascinating historical document and a gorgeous work of film art. Aqui.

Former Lackawanna County Family Court Guardian Ad Litem Pleads Guilty To Federal Income Tax Fraud
The United States Attorney's Office for the Middle District of Pennsylvania announced that on Monday, Danielle Ross Pietralczyk, age 37, of Jermyn, Pennsylvania, pleaded guilty before U.S. District Court Judge A. Richard Caputo to tax evasion and filing a false federal income tax return.
According to United States Attorney Peter J. Smith, tax returns verified by Ross under penalty of perjury failed to report any amounts of income she received from private paying clients while acting as the sole guardian ad litem for the Lackawanna County Family Court. The only income Ross reported for 2009 and 2010 was her County compensation reported on 1099 Forms which she received as an independent contractor hired by Lackawanna County.
As the sole guardian ad litem for the Lackawanna County Family Court, Ross was provided with an annual compensation of $38,000. However, pursuant to a contract between Ross and Lackawanna County, Ross was permitted to bill private paying parties above her County compensation at a rate of $50 per hour. Ross managed and exercised complete control over her private billings and income. That income was known only to Ross and not Lackawanna County, nor was Lackawanna County required to approve Ross's private billings.
Ross was indicted in February 2013.
The case was investigated by joint investigation by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), and the Lackawanna County District Attorney's Office. Prosecution is assigned to Assistant United States Attorney Michelle Olshefski.
A sentence following a finding of guilty is imposed by the Judge after consideration of the applicable federal sentencing statutes and the Federal Sentencing Guidelines.
In this particular case, the maximum penalty under the federal statute is five years' imprisonment, a term of supervised release following imprisonment, and a fine. Under the Federal Sentencing Guidelines, the Judge is also required to consider and weigh a number of factors, including the nature, circumstances and seriousness of the offense; the history and characteristics of the defendant; and the need to punish the defendant, protect the public and provide for the defendant's educational, vocational and medical needs. For these reasons, the statutory maximum penalty for the offense is not an accurate indicator of the potential sentence for a specific defendant.

Why You Need To Focus On First Contact Resolution
Written by Rena Itzhaky - May 21, 2014
Let's face it: Nobody really likes having to call a contact center. It's likely that such a situation arises due to a customer having a problem with a product or service.
And if nobody likes to call a contact center to begin with, it then follows that nobody likes to call a contact center more than once to address the same problem or concern. In fact, recent research indicates that 12 percent of customers will stop doing business with a company if their issues aren't resolved following a single phone call, email or other form of communication.
With this in mind, business owners and managers need to direct their focus on first contact resolution (FCR), a statistic that measures the percentage of problems resolved the first time a customer reaches out to a company. According to the Service Quality Management Group, for each percentage point a company can improve its FCR metrics, they will witness a corresponding one percent increase in customer satisfaction.
Taking this all into consideration, business owners should strongly consider integrating industry-leading enterprise contact center solutions into their business infrastructure. With such technology at their disposal, contact centers are guaranteed to see increased FCR statistics as they'll be able to help customers get the answers they need quickly.
Enterprise contact center solutions allow customers to select which medium of communication they'd like to use to contact agents. Additionally, the technology allows calls to be routed to agents best suited to settle problems. Should that agent need help, presence features allow that person to identify experts who are available at that moment, allowing them to communicate via instant message to help address concerns that much faster.
According to American Express, two-thirds of customers said they would happily spend more money with a company following a strong customer experience. What's more, one-quarter of customers indicated that being sent from agent to agent without having an issue resolved is a major reason to switch brands. With enterprise contact center solutions integrated into business infrastructure, companies set themselves up to deliver the best service possible, increasing FCR statistics along the way.

"2445" Videos
Early today I went outside, I hopped on the bus (yo, its my ride).
Stepped off, and stepped out to work. Met my boss (he's a jerk).
Met this girl a few years ago. Me and her went out, you know.
Shouldn't have dumped her. I'm a snot. Because now she's really hot.
Summer days, I've been wasting them all away.
When I should have been thinking of a scheme to get her back.
****...last time we went out. 1234.
Now its weird, we always talk. When I walk around I see her a lot
and all my friends say that I suck. How could I have fucked that up.
When the summer's finally gone, she'll probably say "So long".
I have her number if I wanna call, but she's probably never home at all.
The summer's gone, now its cold. Neither of us have gotten too old.
I probably shouldn't have wronged that right, but I won't fuck that shit, I'm happy tonight.

Everyone in the Pruett estate, except Devan, was concerned about Owen. All of them–even Brady–wanted to talk to him, but he was always so busy and shooed them away. One night, as Alayna was going to downstairs to clean up after putting Devan to bed, she ran into Owen as he was coming upstairs to go to bed.
"Owen! Is it really you? Or have you made a mobile virtual presence device to keep avoiding us?"
"Ha ha ha. Just because dad was a comedian doesn't mean you should be too. Geez, you guys act like you never see me or something."
"Ummm, Sim Nation to Owen Pruett…we don't!"
"Whatever. I'm always around. Y'all just don't try hard enough to connect with me."
"WE," she started to say, but she didn't want to start an argument.
If she started an argument, then he would shut down and it would probably be another week before she saw him again. She didn't like walking on eggshells around him, but if that's what it was going to take to get through to him, then she would do it.
"Nevermind," she said and changed the subject. "I got an alarming call from Kacey today."
"What's the matter? They couldn't figure out how to use the microwave?"
"That's not funny, Owen. She said that Brianna is gone!"
"Brianna? Gone, like how? For the weekend?"
"They don't know. She said after Cadence died, Brianna just disappeared. She's been gone for almost a week!"
"Wow. That kinda sucks that she would just leave her sisters like that without even letting them know, but it's good that she's taking control of her life I guess."
"How do you mean?"
"You know they're all a bunch of spoiled princesses over there."
"No they aren't. How would you even know that? You barely know them."
"I know a princess when I see one," he said and started to walk toward his room.
"Owen, wait….There's something else I want to talk to you about."
"[sigh] Is this another lecture about my love life??"
"Can you please just talk to her? You clearly don't listen to me, and you definitely need some Sim contact in your life."
"Drop it! Ok?"
"No! I won't drop it until you speak with her! You are out of control, Owen! You work all day and night! I never see you sleep! What are you working so hard for anyway? We don't need the money! I don't know why you just–"
"I talked to her! Ok?"
"Why didn't you say anything?"
"Because it's none of your business! None of this is any of your business!"
"Owen! What happened? We used to be friends! If you don't want me asking about her anymore, I won't. But, please don't shut me out! Talk to me, please!"
He hesitated. He was still in a lot of pain over his recent conversation with Alexia, but he saw how it made his sister feel. She was right. They used to be close, but they weren't anymore, and it was all his fault.
"She doesn't care for me anymore."
"I'm sorry, Owen."
"She kept calling me a plumming bastard. I don't even know what I did! I mean, I know I don't talk to her much, but she knows how I am. Besides, she stopped coming by too! She says that I know what I did, but I don't! I didn't do anything!"
"Are you sure? She sounds extremely upset about something."
"You said so yourself that I'm always working. When would I have had the time to break her heart?"
"True. Well…do you think it's because she's–"
"Crazy? It could be, but I don't know. She didn't sound crazy when she was cursing my name."
Being able to finally confess this was helpful. He hadn't really come to terms with losing the love of his life yet, and he began to cry.
"Oh, Owen! I'm so sorry! I didn't know. I wouldn't have pushed you so hard if I had known!"
"It's ok," he said drying his tears. "I'm fine. I'll just keep working, make this last 114k, and find someone else."
"But Owen! Why do you work so hard? We don't need 114k! We don't need anything! Why don't you take a break? Get away for a while or something!"
"I don't need a break! I need 114k," he shouted and stormed off to his room.
Alayna wished she knew what was driving him so mad so she could get through to him. She went downstairs to straighten up sobbing the entire time. When she was done, she checked on Devan and then climbed into bed. Roland heard her sniffing.
"Baby? Are you crying?"
"Please leave me alone."

(ARA) - Diabetes affects more than 23 million people in the United States, with type 2 diabetes representing 90 to 95 percent of those cases, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). But the good news is that people with type 2 diabetes can find balance in their lives with a structured plan that includes proper nutrition and regular exercise.
From families to careers to busy social lives, people with diabetes have to manage much more each day than just their condition. Finding time to make exercise, regularly scheduled meals and relaxation part of a daily routine can be a challenge. In fact, more than 55 percent of people with type 2 diabetes say their hectic schedules get in the way of their management plans, with 20 percent ranking it as their number one challenge, according to a recent survey by the International Diabetes Center (IDC) and Abbott.
"Diabetes shouldn't define the lives of people living with the condition," says Mother Love, author, TV personality and ambassador for the American Diabetes Association Research Foundation. "It's all about having the right tools for a successful diabetes management plan that will help them find balance for a healthier, better life."
Mother Love, who was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in 1990, made smart nutrition and exercise changes, lost weight and learned to successfully manage her condition. She shares her tips on how to create a successful diabetes management plan:
* Build a team: Create a support team of healthcare professionals, friends and family that you can rely on to reach your health goals. Be sure to consult with your healthcare team to create a diabetes management plan that works for you and includes a balanced diet, exercise, blood-glucose monitoring and medication, if needed.
* Take control of your diet: Say goodbye to poor eating habits like empty-calorie midnight snacks or skipping breakfast and say hello to regularly scheduled, nutritious meals. Nearly half of people with diabetes say eating healthy is most difficult first thing in the morning or late at night, according to the IDC survey. When you're juggling a hectic schedule, nutrition products like Glucerna cereals, snack bars and shakes are a convenient food choice. They are great-tasting and specially formulated to help minimize blood sugar spikes, which can lower A1C levels when used as part of a diabetes management plan. Use Glucerna products under medical supervision.
* Get a move on: Being overweight is a major risk for diabetes, but according to the CDC, it can be prevented or delayed with moderate weight loss and exercise, so get off the couch and get moving. Whether it's swimming, walking or even doing vigorous housework, incorporate exercise into your daily routine. At least 30 minutes of activity, five to seven days a week, will help you get healthy and make the condition more manageable.
* Treat yourself well: Maintaining a balanced, harmonious lifestyle is a key to effectively managing diabetes. Stress is part of daily life for everyone, but too much can be harmful to a person with diabetes because it affects blood glucose levels. Set aside time each day to relax and do the things you enjoy. Write your thoughts in a journal, think of something funny, do yoga or get a massage - anything that will help you unwind.
Making smart, healthy lifestyle changes and adopting a positive mindset can help you find the balance necessary to live a healthier, fuller life. For more information about diabetes or how to create a management plan, consult your physician and visit glucerna.com.

With her creamy white skin, glossy dark hair and perfect red lip, Dita Von Teese has earned a spot as one of my beauty heroes. She falls in line with other stars who have created a signature look for themselves, like Marilyn Monroe or Gwen Stefani. But does she ever get sick of the self-made uniform?
"Sometimes I fantasize about having blonde hair again or red hair," says Dita. "But I never get sick of the red lipstick."
I'm obviously not alone in my fascination with the burlesque star. Her line of lingerie and two fragrances are launching on HSN.com April 23rd. After seeing the 1930s-inspired bottle for her eponymous perfume, I had to know the inspiration behind the seductive scent.
"I was going through this funny thing that happened," says Dita. "I was dating somebody new, and he confessed that the perfume that I wore, that I'd been wearing my whole life, basically, was the same perfume his mother wore. When it happened I called my friend Kilian Hennessy, who's a really great perfumer, and I said 'Well I don't know what to do. His mother wears the same perfume.' He said, 'It's not possible. You get rid of the man or you get rid of the perfume. There's no other option.' So when I was approached to make my own, I went in, and I was intent on creating my own new signature scent to replace that."
Dita's new signature scent opens with fresh bergamot, peony and Bourbon pepper but quickly transitions into a warmer base of patchouli, musk, guaiac wood and sandalwood. As a young girl, though, Dita gravitated toward the popular Love's Baby Soft, and later, her mother's bottle of Halston.
Soon, Dita's ventures may expand into cosmetics. She already has a limited-edition line of red lipsticks with Art Deco, but unfortunately for me, they're only available in Europe. So, what about those of us in the US? "I'm working on a new project. I definitely always want to be creating lipsticks, because it's something that I love to do. It's just a matter of getting the right collaboration." In the meantime, Dita says her favorite reds are MAC's Ruby Woo ($15, macys.com) and Dior's discontinued Dolce Vita Red.
What I really wanted to know was how to get flawless skin like Dita's. "I use a light retinol at night a few times a week. I use sunscreen diligently. I'm pretty basic when it comes to my skin care. I don't feel like there's any miracle products that I use." Well, that's disheartening, but it's nice to hear a celebrity be honest about their naturally good genes.
Do you love Dita's look as much as I do?

Mat Everett of DICE announced on Twitter that the March free content update will release before the Outer Rim DLC. While Season Pass holders will get early access to Outer Rim, it's still uncertain if this free update will come before the early access or before anyone at all sees the Outer Rim. This is good news for many players, as some speculated there would be no new free content with the DLC dropping in the same month. So that's good news to see there will be new content all around.
@SWBFNewsFR Our March free content update will release before the Outer Rim DLC.
— Mat Everett (@sledgehammer70) February 23, 2016
There has also been some chatter from Dennis Brännvall, lead designer at DICE, about new heroes and other details from the game and the DLCs. He also confirmed that you will be able to use the new heroes on the old maps, as well as the old heroes on the new maps.

Since launch, the Force has been strong with Star Wars Battlefront. Players have celebrated Star Wars™: The Force Awakens™ by exploring the all-new planet and game mode with the Battle of Jakku. Single and multiplayer have both been updated to include new missions, maps and hero outfits.
March 8 Update:
Below are the patch notes specific to PlayStation 4, PC, and Xbox One for the March Update.

Blocked: Democratic New Jersey Senator Robert Menendez is blocking the Obama administration's appointment of Magistrate Judge Patty Shwartz to a post on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 3rd Circuit. The New York Times called the move "an unusual display of intraparty defiance." Shwartz has been in a long relationship with the head of the public corruption unit for New Jersey's federal prosecutor. That section investigated Menendez during his 2006 election battle.
Enforced: Corporate Counsel reports on the Justice Department and the Securities and Exchange Commission stepped up enforcement of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. Enforcement action reached the second-highest level in the history of the 34-year-old anti-bribery law.
Deported: U.S. immigration officials are investigating the circumstances surrounding the deportation of a 15-year-old girl to Colombia, the Associated Press reports. The girl's grandmother says the government should have done more to determine the girl's identity after she provided a phony name and said she was an adult.
Jammed: A new study shows the top 1% of mobile users are consuming half of the world's bandwidth, The New York Times reports. The study also concluded the gap between "extreme" mobile users and the rest of consumers is widening.
Warned: A U.S. Commerce Department official is warning of possible "unintended and unforeseen consequences" of domain name expansion, The National Law Journal reports. The Internet Corp. for Assigned Names and Numbers approved the upcoming expansion. The group will accept applications for registration of almost any word in any language as a generic top-level domain name, such as dot-computer or dot-furniture. Trademark owners are worried about cybersquatting.
Leaked: The Wall Street Journal reports on the Defense Department investigation of possible leaks of classified information to filmmaker Kathryn Bigelow about the military operation that killed Osama bin Laden.
Arrested: The authorities in Turkey have arrested the former head of the country's armed forces, Financial Times reports. Prosecutors allege the retired general, Ilker Basbug, of leading a terrorist organization. Basbug left his military post in August 2010.
Dismissed: A Washington federal judge late Thursday dismissed a suit over claims the government failed to protect a State Department official from criminal prosecution in Italy. The plaintiff, Sabrina De Sousa, was convicted in absentia for her alleged role in the kidnapping of a terror suspect. She denies any involvement in the episode.
