Two of Time Magazine's most influential people in the world, Ann Patchett and Elizabeth Gilbert come together on the occasion of their new books.
When Gilbert and Patchett - whose latest works are the novel The Signature of All Things and a collection of essays entitled This Is The Story of a Happy Marriage, respectively - take the stage at LIVE from the NYPL, the evening will be not just a conversation between two literary stars, but an intriguing dialogue between two friends about writing styles, sources of inspiration, and more.
The friends recently discovered they were writing novels about the same topic. As Patchett explained to Gilbert: "this friend of mine, who happens to be you...[was] writing a novel about the Amazon, and then you decided not to write a novel about the Amazon, and then I started writing a novel about the Amazon, and later when we compared notes (your book dismissed, mine halfway finished) they had remarkably similar story lines, to the point of being eerie. I thought this must be because it was an incredibly banal idea and we had both come up with a generic Amazon novel, but then you told me that ideas fly around looking for homes, and when the idea hadn't worked out with you it came to me."
Ann Patchett is the author of six novels, The Patron Saint of Liars, Taft, The Magician's Assistant, Bel Canto, Run, and State of Wonder, and three books of nonfiction, Truth & Beauty, A Friendship, What now? and, This is the Story of a Happy Marriage. Patchett has been the recipient of numerous awards and fellowships, including England's Orange Prize, PEN/Faulkner Award, the Book Sense Book of the Year, The Governor's Award for Excellence in the Arts, and the American Bookseller's Association's "Most Engaging Author Award." Her books have been both New York Times notable books and New York Times bestsellers. Her work has been translated into more than thirty languages. In November, 2011, she opened Parnassus Books in Nashville, Tennessee, with her partner Karen Hayes. She has since gone on to be a spokesperson for independent booksellers, talking about books and bookstores many places, including, "The Colbert Report." In 2012 she was named by Time Magazine as one of the 100 Most Influential People in the World.
Elizabeth Gilbert is the acclaimed author of five books of fiction and nonfiction. Her short story collection, Pilgrims, was a finalist for the PEN/Hemingway Award, and her novel, Stern Men, was a New York Times Notable Book. Her 2002 book, The Last American Man, was a finalist for both the National Book Award and the National Book Critics Circle Award. She is best known for her 2006 memoir, Eat, Pray, Love, which has been published in more than thirty languages; a film based on the memoir, starring Julia Roberts, opened in August 2010. Her most recent work, Committed – a memoir of marriage – was a # 1 New York Times bestseller. In 2008, Time magazine named Gilbert one of the most influential people in the world.

Uncommon care
Dee DeLuca's final years were eased by attentive care and friendship at Valley View
During a budget scare at Valley View last year, Louis asked administrators what would happen to his wife if the home closed. He was told she could be transferred anywhere in the state, up to three hours away. In that case, Dawn said, she would have lost her father then too. He would have left to stay with Dee.
By Ginny Privitar
GOSHEN — Dawn Guevara remembers her mother before she became ill.
"My mom's personality was something else," Dawn said. "She was very full of life. She laughed — she was a fun person. She got along with everybody."
Delicia ("Dee") Conservo was born in the old Goshen Hospital and raised in Chester. She met Louis DeLuca, the man who would be her husband, when she was 14. They were together for 50 years.
Dee was a police officer and, for 20 years, a matron for the Village of Chester Police Department. She was the receiver of taxes for the Town of Chester and was a past member of Walton Engine and Hose Company Ladies Auxiliary.
Her life revolved around her grandson and granddaughter. But Dawn said she didn't get to spend time with her third grandchild.
Some would say Dee lived a full life, but she died much too soon, at 64. She was diagnosed with Alzheimer's when she only 56 years old.
Her family started to notice memory lapses a few months after Dee had elective weight loss surgery in October 2005. The following March they received the dreaded diagnosis, which they believe was brought on by a lack of oxygen or stroke during surgery.
You might expect the story to end on an unhappy note, but that was not the case. During the last years of Dee's life, the staff at Valley View nursing home became an extension of her loving family. Dawn said the nurses and other staff were constantly in and out of her mother's room, giving comfort and care. Dee's husband, Louis, spent every day from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. with his wife at Valley View. He befriended everyone there, from the maintenance crew to the nurses to the activity director. He got to know the shift nurses well.
Home away from home
It was a refrain heard over and over during the county legislature's public hearing on April 4, when more than 600 people turned out to support, often with great emotion, Valley View as a county-owned and -run institution: the staff at Valley View is like family — not just to their patients, but to their patients' families too.
After her diagnosis, Dee entered the adult day care program at Elant. Dawn was her primary caretaker, but her job and Dee's declining health made caretaking difficult.
Dee was hospitalized for a stroke and required rehabilitation. Her son, Jeff, a Town of Monroe police officer, asked local EMTs for a recommendation. They all recommended Valley View.
Dee was transferred to the Alzheimer's wing at Valley View for rehabilitation. Dawn credits them for helping her mother to walk again.
Dee was still able to walk even as her health declined from a debilitating series of mini-strokes and seizures that robbed her of speech. She would soon be confined to a wheelchair.
This year, on Jan. 29, staff at Valley View called Dawn at her job at BOCES. Come quickly, they said. Her mother was failing.
Over the next six days, Dawn, Jeff and Louis spent every moment at Dee's side, sleeping on cots, while Dawn's daughter, Deanna, stayed at a friend's house. Dee was no longer taking food or water and was on morphine. Dawn said that at the end of every shift, "the nurses all came down to pay their respects, not knowing if she would still be there."
A group of nurses about to be off for two days asked to have a few moments alone with Dee. Some gave the family their cell phone numbers.
One nurse came in early one evening, at 6 p.m., just to see Dee, returning home to sleep before coming back for her next shift at 11 p.m. The maintenance man brought the family drinks and juices during their vigil.
On the night of Feb. 3-4, Dawn went home to sleep for a few hours and get her children off to school. Early on the morning of Feb. 4, she received a call. Her mother had died.
"It's almost like she waited for me to leave," Dawn said.
"The care that these women gave — they were so wonderful," she said. "They were all crying and as upset as we were. They all showed up for my mom's wake. They sent flowers and cards."
'This is how you treat them?'
Louis volunteers at Valley View three or four days a week. He was calling bingo there as Dawn told her story.
Deanna has spent time visiting patients at Valley View, pushing their wheelchairs and giving out hugs. She showed up there in her communion dress. The staff presented her with a card and money for the occasion.
During a budget scare at Valley View last year, Louis asked administrators what would happen to his wife if the home closed. He was told she could be transferred anywhere in the state, up to three hours away. In that case, Dawn said, she would have lost her father then too. He would have left to stay with Dee.
Dawn is upset with County Executive Steve Neuhaus's push to dispose of Valley View. She remembers his campaign promise to keep it open. How can he keep that promise if a new owner takes over? Dawn wants Valley View around if her father, a Marine who served in Vietnam, ever needs it.
Neuhaus and those who support the transfer say that Valley View is an unsustainable drain on the county budget and an immediate threat to the county's bond rating. Those who oppose the transfer say Valley View is a miniscule part of a budget overstuffed with building projects.
Dawn says the efforts in recent years to close, sell or otherwise get Valley View off the county's hands have caused residents great pain and recurring anxiety. She is angry at Neuhaus and the Republican legislators for their vote to transfer the nursing home to a local development corporation for eventual sale, only months after agreeing to fund the home for a year and give it a chance to turn around.
"These are people who have worked their entire lives, and this is how you treat them?" she said.

First off, congrats to Karly Stuenkel of St. Charles for her college soccer commitment to Iowa.
Heckuva achievement and all, but it got Sly to thinking: as excellent of a team as St. Charles North is, how dominant could the North Stars be with another player of that caliber in the mix (Stuenkel plays year-round club soccer for the Eclipse).
Shoot, maybe North will win the state title this season anyway and it won't even be worth pondering, but it's still a shame from a high school sports fan's perspective to see great talents not play for their school teams.
North isn't the only area team dealing with the club bugaboo.
Another quality Tri-Cities team, Geneva, would surely be that much better if Hannah Davison (another Big Ten soccer recruit, Northwestern) were on the pitch. But Davison also focuses her soccer talents on the club ranks, though she does chip in to the Vikings' spring sports efforts on the track, where she excels as a jumper.
There are probably some other really talented local soccer players in the same boat as Stuenkel and Davison, as there have been in years' past.
Sly's not here to rag on these kids' decisions. It's hard to argue with the results, and there surely are competitive benefits from playing the high-level club competition and getting specialized coaching attention throughout the year.
It's the tired, old debate about whether the social and team-building benefits of playing for your school for a few months outweigh the club benefits, and people just look at it differently. That's OK.
But what's not up for debate is that a really good area for high school soccer, the Tri-Cities, would be even more of a force to be reckoned with if its full complement of available talent suited up.

i have a cm36 9000kv big block and thinking of trying it out in my second merv.
question i have these plates and motor mounts laying around and looks like they will work but if the motor plate is a 7380 why is it marked 7075?
Whats the gearing you'll be using.
37/45 might be to high?
I did the speed calculator with my small foams on 3s won't need much! If it can pull 8500 kv a 22/45 equals 87.1 not that it would pull that
i was thinking that's what it was but wasn't sure thanks
So I am thinking of trying the 9000 on 3 cell. With our little batteries the voltage will drop below 3.7v and an rpm below 99,900. Does that sound crazy or what!
You will have to keep this thread constantly updated because I am extremely interested in this project!
Yep. I had to order another mmp to handle the power but I will post pics when it get rolling. Still haven't tested my neu 1112 1/y much!
Has anyone checked this out?
Last edited by 50togo; 11-03-2012 at 10:55 PM.
Ghostbuster is selling a Bb merv in the marketplace
It's got that same mount
Decent price for all that upgrades.
i think 9000kv is just rediculous
no way will that be usuable
We will see!
No big deal if it doesn't. Motor only cost 60 brand new!
And I have a 6000kv ,stock 4000kv and the neu 1110 laying around that will. Thanks for the thought jimbo
It'll be usable, just need a huge space, some ballast upfront, lowering and for gods sake turn the steering epa way down. Either way I bet it'll sound beastly spinning up that many rpms.
Dye-no-mite Pow-er Go Fast, Wirrrrr Screeeech BOOM
with aerodynamic drag and battery size limiting it it will only go so fast but pretty fast!
7075 is also the part number of the 380 size Titan motor. Maybe that has something to do with it.
Nobody is born with experience
i picked up the hr setup just in case . 7075 didn't make sense but it is bigger than my stock 380 plate
The part that says 7075 is 7075 for the alloy. It is part number TRA7380 and it's the mount that comes with the Titan 550. It's the Traxxas big block mount - much cleaner/prettier than the tenbol imo.
7075 is some high quality, high strength aluminum, just what you want for a motor plate. TRX uses some 7075, and 6061 alloy in some hop ups for the Jato and some other RCs, both high grade, strong and light.
Just funny they put 7075 and not the part number!
I will compare the stock plate and hr setup to see what looks best
The stock plate is 6061 aluminum which is softer and less ridged, that's why I don't like the idea of the Tenbol mount using the stock plate with the extra weight of a big block. The Traxxas big block mount is also thicker which is even better.
***You Build It ...I'll Jump It!!!*** OS .18 TZ; Trinity Pipe; HCR Titanium Skid Plates & Bumpers; Futaba S9450 Throttle Servo; Airtronics 94358Z Steering Servo; RPM A-arms & Knuckles; FOC; Lunsford Titanium Hinge Pins,Turnbuckles, Push Rods & Rocker Posts; New Era Roll Bar & Engine Mount; Proline Mashers on Velocity Rims.
You mean the stock 380 mount is 6061
I have th HR mount for my big block. Haven't ran into any issues yet. Only have ran two packs through with it.
Oh and it looks great on the truck too! Lol
Thats good.
What do the two red things do?
Yeah I always wondered about that too. It does look awesome though!
Heat sinks I believe.
Revo MM CC2200
Rusty MMP CC3800
Merv SV2 CC5700
I will check it out when it comes in!
Yes they are heatsink. You can remove them just held on by screws.
Thanks for the info!
I think they put the alloy grade as a marketable detail. Bikes do it, my Norco is 6061 and lite as a feather. 7075 T6 is top grade strong and light, awesome stuff, the part number is just that a part number, just imagine they stuffed the part number on each part as bold, the truck would look retarded IMO. They write it because it goes unseen if they don't and it is a point of importance. 7075 is probably overkill, but not a bad place for a lil overkill.
when i was searching it all i came up with was 380 titan as peter said didn't make sense!
If you want i can take some pictures of mine mounted up when i get home from work in a couple hours..just in the middle of cleaning all my wires up.
sounds good ! thanks
Here's some pics.
HR is one company like rpm I haven't been disappointed by them yet.

Nice! Thanks. Some pics I saw looked like springs!
No prob. yea it's not like it really needs them tho. even with 32/45 it bearly gets warm. yea i'm just waiting for a new chassis, to move everything around. with that mount it has the motor pretty centered in the chassis and i'd like to get the rx back in a enclosed box..
I don't really plan on getting mine wet! But would be nice!
yea I don't really plan on it either, But that's the whole reason i got my sand paw's to run it across my pond...lol...have a small wager with one of my friends. But he's got kinda worried now with some of the videos I have showed him of the icelandic hill climb trucks that they run across water.....
that will be cool to see. don't forget to record it!
Bomber, look up "Jesus Revo" on youtube. That guy did a water skipping video with sand paws, pretty good length too. Film it when you do it.
Dye-no-mite Pow-er Go Fast, Wirrrrr Screeeech BOOM
I will.setup.a nice ramp and fly over thw water!

Cloud storage is being added to the Xbox 360, according to an e-mail from corporate VP of Xbox Live Mark Whitten. The functionality will add the ability to access game saves, full profile information, Microsoft Points for purchasing, Achievements, and friends lists. The announcement also promises the end of difficult "gamertag recovery," since you should be able to recover it from anywhere easily.
A timeline wasn't mentioned for the new feature, but it seems likely that it will hit this fall alongside the other announced updates like live TV.

Network of researchers helps making drivers more aware of road safety
In Europe over 41,000 people die and 1.6 million are injured in traffic accidents every year. However, there are striking regional differences. In Southern Europe the number of traffic deaths is as much as two to three times higher for the same number of vehicles. The project SAFEAST, Towards Safer Road Traffic in the Eastern Mediterranean Region, was set up to examine the reasons behind these differences in October 2004. Universities from Sweden, the United Kingdom, Finland, and Greece participated in the four-year project.
SAFEAST was a "Transfer of Knowledge Project," which was part of the Marie Curie programme with funding from the European Commission of approximately €680,000, whose aim was to improve the knowledge and research skills and mobility of Eastern Mediterranean traffic researchers. Experienced researchers were trained in Turkey and Greece and selected researchers from the two countries were sent to leading road safety institutes in the European Union (EU), exposing them to different systems and new ideas. Traffic experts from abroad also came to Turkey and Greece to share their knowledge. The research focused on how Turkish and Greek people behave in traffic, what factors influence their behaviour, and how it could be changed for the better.

Arctic Challenges
Climate change is having a profound impact on the Arctic, its sensitive marine ecosystem and the human communities that rely on the area's natural wealth. The Arctic is warming at almost twice the rate of the rest of the planet. Water temperatures are also rising, melting the pack ice more rapidly than scientists predicted only a few years ago. In 2007, seasonal minimum sea ice extent reached a record low – 23 percent less than has been recorded since satellite-based measurements started in 1979. This staggering pace of sea ice melt has continued in 2008 and 2009 – with the second and third lowest recorded coverage. Some scientists estimate that the Arctic could be seasonally ice-free in 10 to 30 years.
Arctic Sea ice minimum concentration for 1979-2006
Marine mammals and other Arctic life face an uncertain future as Arctic ecosystems adapt to warming waters and receding ice. Iconic species such as the polar bear, walrus, ringed seal and bowhead whale are all highly adapted to an existence with ice. Ice-dependent species use the ice as a platform for giving birth, resting and migrating. The underside of the ice provides habitat for tiny algae that are the base of a productive food web. Other species such as the grey whale, killer whale and red fox are taking advantage of warming waters and changing habitat by shifting their ranges towards the poles. Indigenous communities depend on many marine species to sustain their culture. Traditional hunters are encountering new challenges as ice becomes less stable, travel becomes more hazardous and animals' migratory paths change.
Warming in the Arctic will not only affect those who live there but will influence the entire planet. [See Pew Arctic Treasure Report] The Arctic helps regulate the global climate system and influences weather patterns across much of the northern hemisphere. Extensive ice-covered areas reflect large amounts of solar energy back into space, helping to cool the planet. This heat imbalance drives ocean currents and atmospheric circulation, transporting cooler waters to the tropics and influencing the jet stream and our weather patterns in North America
Worldwide deep ocean circulation
Impacts of the warming Arctic include:
- Arctic sea ice is carried southwards into the North Atlantic, where it melts. The resulting volume of relatively fresh water affects the ecology of the area and helps drive the worldwide circulation of the oceans. Changes in recent decades have had profound effects, including the transition from cod to shrimp in Greenlandic waters. Changes in freshwater inputs to the North Atlantic may alter the global ocean currents with far-reaching effects on the global climate.
- The amount of solar energy absorbed by Arctic seas increases with large areas of open water. That causes even warmer seas.
- Warming temperatures are leading to the release of methane – a powerful greenhouse gas – from the seabed and melting tundra, wetlands and lakes in the Arctic.
- These changes could potentially impact global weather patterns and ocean circulation.

Rock Report: Paul McCartney Tapping Young Producers For Sessions
Paul McCartney has been in the studio with producer Ethan Johns -- son of legendary producer Glyn Johns. Ethan spoke to NME.com and revealed that McCartney has also been recording with producer Mark Ronson -- a close friend of Sean Lennon's. Ethan, who recently worked with Joe Cocker, said McCartney's new material sounds like "classic Paul."
He went on to say: "This is very different to the last album. We've done two sessions already and the third is in a few weeks. It's sounding great. He's still one of the most extraordinary recording talents. There's a song on the record called 'Hosanna' which is absolutely heartbreaking -- just Paul and an acoustic guitar. It's gorgeous. . . I know he's also been in the studio with Mark Ronson, which I imagine is going to be quite current-sounding."
Ethan admitted he wasn't sure if any of the material they worked on will definitely make the final cut of the upcoming album, and added: "I'm not sure what it is. I'm simply a guy in his phone book he calls up every now and again and asks if I want to do something. And you don't say no to McCartney. I mean, who would?"
Paul McCartney has been writing songs for 55 years and admits that more often than not, it's the music that inspires the lyrics: "The truth is, it can be any way. Y'know, 'cause interviewers over the years have asked, 'Which come first' -- and I remember, 'All My Loving' was a words thing, I just wrote it on a coach and I had those words and then I put a tune to it -- but most of my stuff isn't like that. Most of my stuff is a tune looking for words." . .

Two former University of Maryland standouts Quinn Carney and Tracy Stumpf were named to the 2013 National Lacrosse Hall of Fame Saturday night in Hunt Valley, Md.
Carney and Stumpf joined six other inductees including Jim Berkman, Michele DeJuliis, Sue Heether, Bill Miller, Ryan Wade, and Michael Watson in this year's class.
Carney was a four-year starter and two-time All-American at midfielder for Maryland. She helped lead the Terrapins to four straight NCAA national championships from 1998-2001, and three straight ACC Championships from 1999-2001. Carney was a three-time All-ACC selectee (1999-2001) and was also selected to the ACC's 50th Anniversary Team in 2002. She currently ranks fifth on the school's all-time list in assists (110), seventh in goals (162) and eighth in points (265). She was a two-time member of the U.S. Women's World Cup Team (2001, 2005) and named to the All-World Team in 2005. Carney holds the record for most goals scored in World Cup play (37) by a U.S. player.
Stumpf was a four-year starter on defense for the Terps and was a two-time first team All-American, earning the honor in both 1985 and 1986. She was also named to the NCAA's All-Tournament Team three times (1984, 1985, 1986) and was team captain on the Terps' first national championship team in 1986. Additionally, she was named to the ACC's 50th Anniversary Team in 2002, and the NCAA's 25th Anniversary Team in 2006. Stumpf spent seven years (1986-1993) as a member of the U.S. Women's National Team Program and was a member of the 1989 championship-winning U.S. World Cup Team.
The National Lacrosse Hall of Fame, a program of US Lacrosse, was established in 1957 to honor men and women who by their deeds as players, coaches, officials and/or contributors, and by the example of their lives, personify the great contribution of lacrosse to our way of life. More than 380 lacrosse greats are honored in the National Lacrosse Hall of Fame, which is located with the Lacrosse Museum at US Lacrosse Headquarters in Baltimore.

Two Saints made their first varsity starts Friday night, and both responded with several key plays during St. Charles East's second-half surge to hand Geneva its first loss of the season in convincing fashion, 55-39.
Sophomore point guard Cole Gentry scored 8 points and was part of constant full court, trapping pressure that forced 20 Geneva turnovers including 8 in a game-deciding 15-3 third-quarter run. Gentry also pocketed 3 of the Saints' 14 steals.
Junior forward AJ Washington added 7 points. He threw down a one-hand slam after a steal and pass ahead from Kendall Stephens that gave the Saints the lead for good at 31-30.
Washington then provided quite an exclamation point to end the 15-3 run when he soared high to grab an alley-oop pass that Dom Adduci lofted from just inside half court. His two-hand jam put the Saints up 44-33 and sent the student section into a frenzy.
"Me and Dom before every game always say we want to get an oop," Washington said. "I just had the faith he would throw it. I knew I was coming off a bad first half so I wanted to get the energy and momentum going for the rest of the game."
St. Charles East (5-1, 1-1) led 26-24 at halftime. After building a 44-36 advantage through three quarters, the Saints held Geneva (7-1, 1-1) to 3 points and 1-of-8 shooting from the field in the fourth, looking much more like the team that started the year winning their own Thanksgiving tournament and not the one upset by Larkin in their last home game.
"We knew we had to give our student section one back because they were out here against Larkin and we didn't play good," Gentry said. "Geneva is our rival so it just added that much more intensity to the game. We just played great together."
Adduci led a balanced Saints attack with 14 points. Stephens came off the bench after missing practice this week with an illness and scored 10 of his 13 points in the second half -- a sign the Saints can win games even without their Purdue-bound senior carrying them.
"I thought tonight made us better in the fact we are still working on ways to get him open," Saints coach Patrick Woods said. "Credit their defense, they played hard. We want him to get as many touches as we can obviously but at the same token I thought it was great we had so many players step up and knock down shots. The more we can do that the better we're going to get."
Connor Chapman and Nate Navigato did most of the damage for Geneva. Chapman had 14 points and 10 rebounds while Navigato scored 12 and grabbed 8 rebounds.
Nate Brown chipped in 7 points and played aggressive defense when it was his turn to chase Stephens, but other than those three only two other Vikings scored combining for just 6 points.
"St. Charles East has done us a great favor," Geneva coach Phil Ralston said. "They have exposed where we need to improve. At this point of the season that's great. I thank Coach Woods for it. He has given us a valuable lesson to learn from."
The Vikings rallied from an early 9-2 deficit to tie the game 9-9 after one quarter, Navigato and Chapman scoring all 9 of their first-quarter points.
The Saints picked up the pace in the second quarter with their trapping full-court man pressure, a different look than their 1-3-1.
"We have different rotations and try to mix it up, keep them on their toes so they don't know where it (the trap) is coming from," Woods said.
"We kind of pride ourselves on our defense. We knew Geneva was 7-0 coming in and we knew it was going to be a tough, physical game and it pretty much played out exactly how we thought as far as the physicality and the defense."
Ralston certainly was not pleased with how the Vikings handled the pressure, committing 12 more turnovers than the Saints did to offset Geneva's 31-23 rebounding advantage.
The Saints also shot their free throws much better at 15 of 21 to Geneva's 8 of 16.
"We did not handle the ball well, we did not pass the ball well, we did not meet the pass well, we had balls that were knocked out of our hands because we were not strong with the ball," Ralston said.
"In all those phases we did a very poor job tonight, and yet despite that up until it got away from us in the end of the third, beginning of the fourth we were still in the game. That's the amazing part."
One reason the Vikings stayed close was Chapman's play inside. Several times the 6-foot-5 senior got the ball on a block and made a spin move to find himself with a great look right in front of the rim, often drawing contact to get to the free-throw line 8 times.
"That's (footwork) something he's worked on in the offseason," Ralston said. "Been a point of emphasis for him. For a big guy he's actually pretty nimble on his feet. We told him this season he needs to have a more commanding presence. Got to get his shooting percentage a little higher, got to get him to finish a little better."
The Saints ended up just below 50 percent from the field at 17 of 36.
The newcomers to the starting lineup -- Gentry and Washington -- did their part with their combined 15 points and aggressive defense.
"It (starting) was crazy, it's a whole different game, the crowd is into it right from the beginning, your name is up there already, it's a great feeling," said Gentry, an AAU teammate on the Mercury Elite with Geneva's Navigato.
"I just wanted to play my role, find my shooters, score when I needed to," Gentry said. "Coach stressed when your number is called be ready. I wanted to bring energy, pressure their guards, get some assists, get the team going.

Dear all,
Assistance please.
Me and the mrs ripper are going hunting for a new TV for her studio apartment, so we aren't looking for anything huge. The best size is probably around a 22/24 inch screen or so based on holding a tape measure against the wall while she sits/stands/lays in tv watching positions umming and ahhing.
For what I require there appears to be a plethora of LCD and LED tv's on the market and in the price range. So...
Which is best? LCD or LED?
Please give pros/cons of both or alternatives.
Want to look somewhat knowledgeable while butting heads with sales clerk tomorrow/Sunday.

CALGARY — Alberta's auditor general, who pokes into every corner of government business, can sometimes scare the heck out of anyone who reads his reports.
In his latest, Merwan Saher doesn't say Alberta has unsafe bridges, or raise the spectre of you and your family plunging into the Bow River. But his overall conclusion is dramatic: "The risk of unsafe bridges is unnecessarily high."
He paints an alarming picture of shoddy inspections and performance by the Transportation Department.
Although Saher carefully says "we didn't find any evidence of unsafe bridges," that's because he doesn't inspect bridges. He inspects the government — and doesn't like what he sees.
The safety policies are fine, it seems, but the actual bridge inspections are often slapdash, to the point that many contractors hired to do the work are not even qualified.
In the year ending March 31, 2011, about 900 of 1,700 inspections were done by private contractors who had no certification.
To allow this breach of policy, one government individual actually went into the computers to override a requirement that inspectors be certified.
It's jolting enough that the province contracts out such vital safety work; more startling still that many people who do it don't meet the government's own standards.
When the government itself begins to actively subvert those standards, things begin to get serious.
We're talking about the safety of thousands of bridges here, not the risk of slipping on a cucumber sandwich at a legislature tea party.
Despite all this, transportation has been hoarding money by underspending its bridge maintenance budgets. This is surely due to orders from Treasury Board for nearly every department to find savings.
The route to official heroism is cost-saving, not spending. That might be good in many areas, but not bridge safety.
When Saher's auditors reviewed bridges in the department's capital plan, they found that nearly 80 bridges of all types were over 50 years old, and their condition ranked below a rating of 35 out of 100.
Bridges built more than a half-century ago typically have useful lives of about 50 years, Saher notes. It appears these are not only badly maintained, but obsolete.
Before Saher had even finished talking, Transportation Minister Ric McIver issued a news release saying, "Alberta's travelling public can be assured that Alberta's bridges are safe."
He said the department has already implemented most of the changes Saher wanted.
McIver cited 3,000 scheduled inspections in the past two years, without mentioning Saher's finding that some of them were performed by unqualified people, often late.
The minister obviously wants to stop motorists from portaging their children around bridges. His approach sounds much like the premier's during the beef crisis — don't worry, just keep cooking.
In other areas, Saher found that Alberta Health Services stumbles on the accounting front because "it's still involved in a huge amalgamation from the previous health regions."
That began nearly four and a half years ago. We have to wonder when, if ever, they will get that done.
There's much more in the report, including credit in some areas where the government has improved. Saher isn't a flashy auditor general like Fred Dunn before him, but he's certainly just as solid and unafraid.
His final big finding has almost become routine.
In the fiasco that is Alberta's climate change policy, there are still problems of "reliability, comparability and relevance of ... public reporting on results and the costs incurred in meeting Alberta's climate change targets."
The enemies of the oilsands could not be more delighted to have that known.

Steampunk is mostly rubbish, most of what if scenarios coupled with are along the lines that are essentially "what if we had technology advance faster at a certain time AND everyone was retards".
However.. summoning rats and all that other magic bullshit make this sound more like Lovecraft style pre-1900's magic show.
The writer seems to have serious troubles with what defines a rpg too though...
still, might be a good game, but it's still a magic show, might just as well call it a fantasy setting since obviou
When did this start? Game previews (especially ones this far out) are a total waste of time. They're controlled by the publisher, and positive 100% of the time. It's nothing more then free PR for the publisher.
Why is this now something worth being posted?
While RPS rarely sells out, even the review says that it was a waste of time, because the demo was too short to form an opinion.

Ten... smart TVs
Net set and catch up
Sony Bravia KDL-46HX923
As stylish as it is overpriced, Sony's 3D-ready KDL-46HX923 is a high-flyer for all the right reasons. With edge-to-edge Gorilla Glass, integrated Wi-Fi and detail infused, high contrast HD imagery, it screams Business Class.
Of all the TV portals currently on offer, Sony's Entertainment Network offers perhaps the richest supply of IPTV. With catch-up, YouTube, Daily Motion, LoveFilm, sundry bizarro channels, plus Sony's own Movies Unlimited VOD film service, it's hands down the best choice if you're looking to save money on a traditional pay TV service.
Video file playback from USB includes MKV and AVI, while MP3s play back with album art. Across a network the TV drops support for MKVs, which is a bit clumsy.

This high-end 3D-ready LED LCD isn't just smart, it's a Mastermind. Sporting Toshiba's proprietary multi-core CEVO Engine, it's able to turn significant chunks of silicon over to processor-intensive tasks such as 2D-to-3D conversion and picture enhancement. The brand's Resolution+ detail booster now makes streaming IPTV content, as well as Blu-ray and broadcast TV, look cleaner and sharper.
Unfortunately, this TV isn't so canny when it comes to net connectivity. The brand's online portal, Toshiba Places, still appears to be in unofficial Beta. With the exception of BBC iPlayer, YouTube and DailyMotion, available IPTV sources are subscription and there's not much else of interest. At least when it comes to USB file playback, the set gets to shine. However, across a LAN video streaming runs dry, with only MPEG files trickling through. All brains and no brawn? ®

In the power generation industry, plants are built with one event in mind: peak demand. Rates are structured to ensure the equipment is in place so that when the load is heaviest, the public's needs can be served.
In the case of wildfires in the American West, the peak load has arrived.
The ignition one week ago of the High Park Fire in bone-dry forests west of Fort Collins has turned a residential neighborhood into a mix of charcoal and ash. The costs of fighting the fire are immense: tens of millions of dollars to pay for the work done by more than 1,300 firefighters, as well as hundreds of hours of flight time for the large air tankers, single-seat tankers and helicopters to battle the flames from the air.
If the High Peak Fire was the only wildfire burning in the West, there would certainly be enough equipment and manpower to stem its progress through the forested neighborhoods west of Fort Collins. However, large wildfires in New Mexico and Utah have started to strain the resources of the Forest Service. That strain was noted last week when President Barack Obama signed into law a measure that would allow leasing of several new large air tankers from the private companies that retrofit former passenger and cargo planes for the duty. Other legislation signed would allow the Forest Service to waive the waiting period normally required for a lease to be signed for the private air tankers to get into the air.
It's unfortunate that it seemed to take an epic outbreak of wildfires to spur action on the issue of large air tankers. The congressional delegation from Colorado has been asking for a decade -- since three firefighters died in the Big Elk fire near Estes Park while working from aircraft -- to beef up the nation's air tanker fleet.
If one piece of good news can come from the catastrophe called the High Park Fire, it could be the recognition of the aging resources to fight fires in the fastest-growing areas of the country.
It is time for a comprehensive discussion of what is the true peak load for firefighting capacity in the United States.

[Update 8/16] A Shacknews reader (thanks Bonzai) tells us that EA Support claims this promotion ran through August 7, and current orders won't be honored with the free game offer. Shacknews regrets the error.
[Original Story] Battlefield 3 has been paired with the term "Origin" a lot lately, as EA's push to promote its new games portal has led to its share of controversies. But the company isn't above a little light bribery, and is offering a free game for pre-ordering Battlefield 3 through the Origin service. You can actually choose from one of three downloadable PC titles, and the selection isn't half-bad.
Ars Technica reports that through the month of August, pre-orders can get Dead Space 2, Mass Effect 2, or Medal of Honor for free. Buyers will be e-mailed a coupon code to reduce the price to zero dollars.
EA has offered similar promotions before, as BioWare gave away Mass Effect 2 with orders of Dragon Age 2. This deal isn't mentioned on the Battlefield 3 Origin page, so Shacknews has contacted EA to clarify.
The game received a lot of attention last week, with the revelation that it is not coming to Steam due to "restrictive terms" on DLC and patches. It was later confirmed that even if you buy the game through a retail provider, you'll have to use Origin to run the game anyway. So since you basically have no choice, you might as well get a free game out of it, right?

Five Tussle on Turf in Saturdays La Jolla
Five sophomore runners will match up over a mile and one-sixteenth Saturday on the Jimmy Durante Turf Course as Del Mar presents the 72nd edition of the La Jolla Handicap.
Topping the Grade II headliner that offers a purse of $150,000 is Currin and Eisman's My Best Brother, the half-length winner of the second division of the Oceanside Stakes on the Del Mar lawn on opening day, July 18. The homebred bay colt by Stormy Atlantic once again will have the saddle services of Martin Garcia as he carries topweight of 121 pounds in the 8-1/2 furlong feature.
That trio consists of Everest, O'Brien, et al's Chips All In, second in the first half of the Oceanside; Mr.-Mrs. Jerry Moss' Blingo, who rallied for fourth in the race, and Bienstock and Winner's Facoltoso, who ran sixth in his initial stateside start following a 13-race campaign the past two years in Italy.
The La Jolla is the final major prep race leading up to the track's 3-year-old showcase event, the $300,000 Del Mar Derby at nine furlongs on grass. That Grade II test will be presented on Sunday, September 2.
Here's the La Jolla lineup in post position order with riders and weights: Blingo, Mike Smith, 118; Old Time Hockey, Joe Talamo, 117; Facoltoso, Rafael Bejarano, 117; Chips All In, Garrett Gomez, and My Best Brother.
The La Jolla will be the eight of 10 races on the Saturday card with a first post of 2 p.m.

GameCenter "Challenge Spam" :/
Is this the death of GameCenter? I thought GC was just kind if getting off the ground and starting to resemble a real multiplayer community (minus some very fundamental shortcomings like messaging, etc), and ever since the jerks who developed Extreme Road Trip 2 decided to add the "challenge everybody" button, it seems like the new "thing" to do. I used to love getting challenges in Super Hexagon etc, but that's because it was limited to who received the challenge, and was purely for games I ACTUALLY OWN. Now, I get challenges to beat people's shitty scores in games like Can Knockdown and Happy Street 375 times per hour. Is this the beginning of the end of Game Center?

St. John's has been in the community for more than 125 years and the church meant many things to many people. Members of this fire ravaged church came to see the bad news for themselves.
"It's devastating. Shocking. It's just totally wiped out," said Anita Roder, a 37-year member of the church.
St. John's Parishioners snapped photos and relived memories from weddings to funerals to confirmations.
Roder said, "It's really a shame it's gone. A part of the history of sycamore gone."
The history of the church dates back to the late 1800s, but the gutted building was 65 years old. Sycamore resident Hazel Van Dusen has been a member since she was six years old.
"I loved the stained glass windows. That was my home. That was my life," said Van Dusen.
Van Dusen poured over church guides dating to the early 1960s, remembering her days in the church choir, her volunteer work, his sister's wedding and her parents' funerals.
Fifty-seven-year-old Van Dusen visited the church Tuesday morning.
"I cried. That's the only church I've ever known. It's dear to me," said Van Dusen.
With a congregation of more than 700 members, church leaders talked about building a new house of worship. Now they have no choice, but members say it will never be the same. While they can't replace it, members say the memory of St. John's will burn forever in their hearts.

Release Notes: Some bugs have been corrected in WATemplate: the ?? conditional meta keyword was not resolving sub templates in some cases, and the scalar values have been added for resolution, and the @@ loop meta keyword was not resolving sub templates if the condition was not a sub array. Some improvements have been done on @@ meta keywords: support for '.first', '.last', and '.num' subtemplates. Some other bugs have been corrected in the WATemplate (static scope of some functions)
Release Notes: WATemplate has been modified to support traversable/array access metaelement objects (which are not necessarily arrays). The metaElements method is now strict by default, and the compiler has been modified to support elements without space. The shared memory access class now uses semaphores to avoid memory access conflicts. Minor bugs have been fixed.
Release Notes: WAObject has been modified to be executed without warnings on PHP 5.4.
Release Notes: The FastObjectSource, LanguageSource, and TemplateSource objects have been modified to clean and delete the cache and the AFO if the origin has disappeared (is deleted).
Release Notes: The WATemplate syntax analyzer no longer uses urlencode and urldecode, greatly improving compilation time. An error has been corrected in the regular expressions of the templates compiler: sometimes the subtemplate was not correctly replaced.
Release Notes: The WATemplate class has been corrected so the subtemplate IDs can be only only letters, digits, or the special characters ".", "-", "_", and "|".
Release Notes: Some errors have been corrected in the WATemplate class (the [[...]] and {{...}} metaelements were not working as expected sometimes). The method WATemplate->metaElements has been modified so it can be called only once. All the examples have been modified to use the new [[...]] meta element and the strict mode.
Release Notes: A new template syntax has been added: [[id]]...[[]]. The old syntax %%SUBTEMPLATE(id)%% ... %%ENDSUBTEMPLATE%% will be deprecated. A new way to access parameters in the data array has been implemented: {{id}} and a new strict mode to force the use of the new syntax.
Release Notes: An error has been corrected in WATemplate: the ?? metaelement was not working as specified. WATemplate has been modified to support path data access into the data array (i.e., ??VAR1>VAR2>VAR3:templateid??), to use hierarchic accessibility on templates (if the template does not exists in a level, it will be searched in the father), and to support a new meta element {{...}} to directly access an entry in the data array. A new example has been added for path data and the {{...}} meta element.
Release Notes: This release adds a new pattern Factory (with its respective examples) and other minor enhancements in the code.

At a quarterly community relations meeting held last week, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Linda Thorp announced that in addition to bringing in physicians in various areas, the local Banner Health facility sits in the 95th percentile of a recent survey. "Only three percent in the U.S. are better," she stated, adding, "I'm extremely proud about that and the team is extremely proud of that…thanks to the team for all of their hard work."
Thorpe also shared information from a System Rate Comparison which measures quality within the Banner system. Again EMCH scored a top spot, listed at second behind Ironwood.
Another celebration that has been observed is that EMCH noted its first year anniversary on August 1 of having emergency room doctors on call 24/7.
As for new physicians, Thorp explained there are two openings for family practice, with two site interviews set for this month. A mid-level opening also is expected to be filled in the near future, along with a leadership position involving practice manager for all of the clinics.
According to Thorpe, plans also entail partnering with the Mt. Vista facility in Greeley with surgeons to travel to Brush to perform shoulder, elbow and general trauma surgeries.
"I'm pretty proud to have their expertise out here," said Thorpe adding those services are expected to begin in October.
"Overall, our volumes are still continuing to increase, we are seeing an increase in surgeries, our emergency department and clinics are getting busier…these are all good things," she commented.
Pat Samples, Chief Nursing Officer (CNO), reported that due to increased volume, some remodeling has been necessary in the medication and triage rooms.
Samples also reviewed "target goals", all of which EMCH has been surpassing. In her update, Samples explained that a person's initial visit with the emergency department is under 20 minutes, 10 minutes less than the goal. While the goal to have an electrocardiogram is listed at 10 minutes, EMCH is completing that in six minutes.
For those who enter through the emergency department doors and need to go to the cardiac cat lab at Northern Colorado Medical Center, Samples reported that a goal of under 60 minutes is being met.
A "big win" for EMCH, she continued, is that patient transfers to other facilities have decreased by 50 percent. Of those transferred, 92 percent are to another Banner facility.
"It's beneficial for them to stay in the community," Thorpe added.
Sample reiterated the fact that the number of surgeries at EMCH are increasing, as well as the facility is achieving a cost savings goal of $13,360 for the year and they continue to streamline supplies.
As for the Med/Sur and eICU departments, Samples said that all manager positions have been filled, and the facility has successfully implemented a charge nurse role as well as the hospitalists group. "Our clinical initiatives are on target," she commented.
Using the Key Financial Indicators report, Chief Financial Officer (CFO) Jim Cussins compared the operating margins for EMCH and Colorado Plains Medical Center (CPMC) for fiscal year January 2011 to December 2011, explaining "the operating margins for both facilities are very favorable compared to prior years."
According to Cussins, EMCH generated a margin of $1,900,000 or 7.7 percent compared to CPMC's $12,000,000 or 22 percent.
"As a not-for-profit health system (EMCH) the margins generated are put back to use for community benefit and to further their mission by investing in equipment, technologies and growth," he explained, while margins of a for-profit company can be distributed to the owners and/or investors.
In the Statement of Operations summary report, Cussins said that EMCH's charity care provided $2,053,000 or five percent of patient charges compared to CPMC at $4,302,000 or four percent of their patient charges.
The CFO continued by explaining that EMCH sees a significantly higher percentage of governmental (Medicaid and Medicare) and self-pay patients at 66 percent, compared to CPMC at 57 percent. A portion of the greater Medicaid population, he added, is seen
as CPMC delivers babies.
"We exist to make a difference in people's lives through excellent patient care. We do this at emcee for the community as a whole regardless of the ability to pay," Cussins noted. "Our results in both the patient experience and quality of care measures demonstrate our teams commitment to this mission. We are excited about our future and the future of care for Morgan County and the surrounding communities."
Cynda Eklund, who serves as Chief HR officer at EMCH, reported that 58 new hire/rehires/transfers took place in the last 12 months, with four new physicians and two mid-level positions filled as well. Additionally, there were nine transfers into the Brush location from other Banner facilities.
Attending the community luncheon were two of the new physicians, Dr. Gokulan Ratnarajah (Dr. Raj) and Dr. Praveen Budde.
Specializing in internal medicine, Dr. Raj is board certified in internal medicine, with a subspecialty training in geriatric medicine.
He earned his medical degree from Kasturba Medical College, Mainpal university, India and completed his internal medicine residency at Coney Island Hospital in Brooklyn, NY, and a geriatric fellowship at Staten Island University Hospital in Staten Island, NY.
Working with Dr. Scott Faulkner at 500 Main Street, Fort Morgan, Dr. Raj will provide comprehensive patient care including the treatment of diabetes, heart disease and lung disease for patients at the clinic.
He recently was honored with a Geriatric Fellow Research Award and is a member of the American College of Physicians and the American Geriatrics Society.
Married, he enjoys reading, sports, travel and spending time outdoors.
He is available for appointments by calling 542-0360.
Joining the Banner Health Clinic on East Railroad in Fort Morgan, Dr. Budde specializes in common acute and chronic medical issues, as well as preventative medicine for all age groups.
He received his medical degree from J.J.M. Medical college in Kamataka, India and competed family practice residency at Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center in Shreveport, LA. While in Shreveport, Dr. Budde received the Resident Teacher Award from the Louisiana State University, Family Medicine.
A member of the American Academy of Family Physicians and the Louisiana Academy of Family Physicians, Dr. Budde will treat primary care conditions ranging from pediatrics to geriatrics, and has a special interest in musculoskeletal injuries, joint ignitions, skin procedures and urgent care.
He enjoys cooking, traveling, running, music and movies, and is available for appointments by calling 542-4700.
The next quarterly community meeting will be held October 3.

This is a project from the 2012 Environmental Studies 411 'Community Projects' senior clinic course. See all 8 projects at the main Community Projects page.
Weatherization demonstration project For our senior project we decided we wanted to invite Sunbury residents to consider how to implement easy, cost effective, do-it-yourself strategies for creating a more energy efficient household. To do this, we organized a series of videos which take us through a home in Sunbury Pennsylvania. Each video focuses on a room in the home and has four steps. First, we document a walk through and professional audit, next our groups assessment of the cost and benefits, third us purchasing supplies, and last, us implementing the improvements.

MELBOURNE University has raced up the global rankings table, cementing its position as Australia's top-placed university.
The university moved up nine places to 28th spot, the only Australian institute in the top 30 in the Times Higher Education World University Rankings. The Australian National University was the second-highest at number 37.
Melbourne University provost Margaret Sheil said high rankings helped universities to attract elite staff and students. ''People want to be associated with success,'' she said.
Professor Sheil said the university's Melbourne Model, in which students complete broad undergraduate degrees before specialising in particular fields, had helped lift its profile in the rankings. ''The Melbourne Model underpins the success of the institution.''
Sydney University moved up four spots to 62 while Monash University pushed into the top 100 at number 99. Deakin University was ranked between 351 and 400, the same bracket as last year. Universities ranked in the lower part of the table are placed in groups of 50.
In total there were 19 Australian universities in the top 400. The rankings are measured according to a range of factors, including teaching, research, reputation and scholarly papers produced by the universities.
Australian Universities' Review editor Ian Dobson said elite institutes used the rankings in their marketing material to attract students. But the rankings failed to capture the individual strengths of smaller universities, he said.
Universities Australia chief executive Belinda Robinson welcomed the results and said they underlined the importance of continued investment in higher education.

Southwest Freeway reopens after crash near downtown
Updated 11:00 am, Monday, July 15, 2013
A smooth morning commute didn't last long Monday morning after a 10-car pileup blocked Interstate 45 in north Houston, and a short time later another crash temporarily shutdown U.S. 59 near downtown.
A 3-three vehicle wreck about 7:40 a.m. clogged the northbound Southwest Freeway near the Gulf Freeway, according to Houston TranStar. The northbound lanes were temporarily shutdown while crews cleared the area. The lanes later reopened.
About an hour earlier, the 10-car pileup jammed the northbound North Freeway near Airline. The outbound lanes were temporarily blocked while crews cleared the area. Traffic was backed up for miles. The lanes reopened about 7:30 a.m., and traffic slowly got back to normal.
Before dawn, a two-vehicle wreck happened about 5:15 a.m., on the northbound North Freeway near Interstate 10. The wreck blocked two lanes of traffic and gummed up the commute on the North Freeway through downtown. The lanes reopened about 5:45 a.m.
No information was available about possible injuries or what caused the crashes.

Earlier this year Rob Pattinson revealed to Vanity Fair that he was adapting a Lillian Hellman story for the big screen. "It's a secret," he later told reporters while promoting Water for Elephants, refusing to divulge details about his writing. The actor has long been modest about his other creative talents and intellectual interests, which he often mocks in interviews. "I sound like such a snobby little shit," he said to VF, after discussing his passion for Japanese films.
We like Rob's smart side, and have long wondered what was up with his secret screenwriting project. We asked Melissa Rosenberg, writer of all five Twilight movies, what she thought about Rob's pursuits on the page. Turns out she had no idea she'd been working with an aspiring screenwriter for four years. "Is he really?" she said, after we filled her in. "I wish him luck, it's tough work." When asked what advice she would offer Rob, Rosenberg passed along these sage words. "Just understand the craft, understand structure. You can have the talent, but do you have the craft? That's always the challenge."
But the former Dexter head writer clearly thinks he can handle it. "He's certainly been around film and studied film enough,"she said, "that I'm sure he can figure it out." We definitely agree with Rosenberg's assessment and hope that Rob takes some time in between acting projects to finish his screenplay. And might we suggest that if he ever produces his work, he cast his lovely life partner Kristen Stewart in the lead role?
From celebuzz
About that sex scene…everyone is blaming Kristen for the almost R rating!
I thought it was Bill [Condon]'s fault! I told [Rob and Kristen] to go for it- and they did! I thought 'this is fantastic!' When I saw early cuts I was like don't you change a thing. They were like well…we have to a little bit.
I mean, can you blame the girl for getting into it?
Seriously! No way.
How have Rob and Kristen evolved from Twilight to Breaking Dawn?
Well the characters have gotten older. It's a very different story of a high school girl showing up at a high school for the first time as the new girl, and a woman deciding to choose to have a child that might kill her. They are very different themes.
Do you think the fact Rob and Kristen have grown up helped them portray this?
I think this is the best I've ever seen them. They show such craft and skill in this, and are so comfortable with each other.
What can you tell us about the fifth? What is everyone going to be talking about this time next year when Breaking Dawn Pt. 2 comes around.
The thing I'm looking forward to is seeing Bella as a vampire. It's a very different character. The fidgeting, the stuttering, the insecurity, the awkwardness- it's gone. I'm looking forward to that. I'm also looking forward to seeing vampire sex versus human sex [laughing].
Um, that makes two of us! So what's the difference?
We'll see! But I think it's more aggressive. It's physical. Even gymnastic!
Speaking of range, when I talked with Rob and Kristen Thursday I brought up the idea of doing a romantic comedy together. Do you think they could pull it off?
You know, honestly they could do anything. I would love to see them in another film together. Comedy is a very different animal, so I don't know. I'd love to see it though!

The most familiar Jin Yong stories to me are DGSD and the three parts of THE CONDOR HEROES TRILOGY, mostly through the 1980s TVB adaptations.
THE CONDOR HEROES TRILOGY as a whole did not seem to feature too many "long scenes" of characters standing in one location and talking at length without much action (or with a great deal of action that takes place after the talking is done). There's a great deal of movement and changes of scenes in THE CONDOR HEROES TRILOGY. LOCH, ROCH, and HSDS don't seem to dwell on any particular scene for very long...at least not that I can gather from the adaptations.
DGSD, on the other hand, seems to have a great many scenes that just drag on and on and on. I'm not saying that these scenes are boring, but just that there's very little movement or change of scenery. For example, the Beggar's Union Conference where Kiu Fung's heritage was revealed seemed to go on forever (it did last an entire night). Similarly, the events at Tsui Yin Manor seemed to go on forever with Kiu Fung and the various wulin people arguing with each other before the fighting began (and the fight was long too). Ditto the events at the Shaolin Conference.
In the TVB adaptations of these stories, seldom did the characters linger in one spot for an extended period of time in LOCH '82, ROCH '83, and HSDS '86. In DGSD '81, however, there seemed to be a tendency for scenes in a single location to last whole episodes.
Is that in line with the way the DGSD novel was paced vis a vis the CONDOR HEROES TRILOGY novels, or was it just a TVB pacing thing?

TULSA, Okla. (AP) -- Former NBA star Marvin Webster has been found dead in a bathtub at a Tulsa hotel.
The 56-year-old Webster was discovered in his room Monday morning in the Ambassador Hotel.
Police spokesman Jason Willingham says foul play is not suspected and the death apparently stemmed from an illness. The medical examiner office says the cause of death has not been determined.
Willingham says the former 7-foot-1 center had been living at the hotel and employees grew concerned after not seeing him for several days.
Webster played nine seasons in the NBA, including six with the New York Knicks. He also played for Denver, Seattle and Milwaukee. He averaged 7.1 points and 7.0 rebounds. His first pro season was with Denver of the ABA in 1975.

The area coaching scene will have a couple of new looks next year, with Coatesville's Rick Nelms retiring and possibly Jim Nolan of Great Valley. Interesting that the coaches of the two best teams in the Ches-Mont League may not be there next season. The Coatesville job is one of the best in District 1 and should attract a lot of attention.
Penn Wood comes to Great Valley on Saturday and this will be a true test for the Patriots, who have breezed through the Ches-Mont portion of their schedule, except for a very tough game with West Chester Rustin. The question is, can the Patriots' guards hold up against pressure from the likes of Penn Wood, Coatesville and Norristown?
Crowds have been awful at games this season. Not many students out there at games and I know the Ches-Mont League is not one of the better leagues around this season, but the student-athletes, who put in a heck of a lot of time, deserve to be appreciated. How about letting students in for free with their I.D?
It is still two weeks away, but one man's version of how the top three seeds in District 1 Class AAAA will go is Lower Merion at number one, Chester at two and if Great Valley goes undefeated, the Patriots at three. There is still a lot of basketball to play and Great Valley still has Penn Wood and West Chester Rustin on its slate.
Another disturbing trend out there is some teams are not playing as hard as they should. Numerous times coaches have been overheard imploring their teams to comepte. If you cannot get up for 22 games, then you should not be playing varsity basketball.
The most improved player in the Ches-Mont League has to be West Chester Rustin's Ethan Ridgeway. The junior is no longer just a shooter; he runs the floor show for the Golden Knights' offense.
Coatesville is getting its act together just in time for the playoffs. The Red Raiders paid back Avon Grove in a big way last week for the Red Devils' early-season upset win over the Ville. Howard Sellars and Dre Boggs are starting to come together to form a very effective backcourt for the Red Raiders.
Westown's Yilret Yiljep is out for the remainder of the season but will be ready to play next season at American University.
Kennett has 11 wins, and the Blue Demons may be the most athletic team in the American Division. Maalik Rochester and Vaughn Jenkins both are very good offensive players and the Blue Demons look to be in the district playoffs for the second season in a row under Mike Fergus.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic continued his rich vein of goalscoring form with a hat-trick for Paris St-Germain in a 4-0 victory over Valenciennes.
Carlo Ancelotti's side closed the gap on Ligue 1 leaders Lyon, with a comprehensive win over fifth-placed Valenciennes. But Ibrahimovic was the star of the show - only Lionel Messi has scored more league goals than the Swedish striker in Europe's top five leagues this season.
After netting his 15th, 16th and 17th of the season last night, the former Milan forward has now scored seven more goals than his nearest rival in France, Lyon striker Bafetimbi Gomis. And Zlatan's done so in just 14 league appearances.
Paris St-Germain have scored 32 goals in Ligue 1 this term - Ibrahimovic has scored 53%. Only Demba Ba of Newcastle has scored a higher percentage for his team - 56%.
PSG, having played a game more than most of their competitors, sit second in the French league, two points behind Lyon. And the big-spending Parisian side clinched qualification for the knock-out round of the Champions League last month, comfortably topping Group A with five wins out of six.
Few teams will want to face Ancelotti's outfit, and with Zlatan in this kind of mood it's not hard to see why.
His goals were tap-ins against Valenciennes, but he was in the right place at the right time, like any good striker should be. And it's not like we don't know if he can score the spectacular - his highlight reel is as good as any.
Take a look at his goals from last night's game. Are PSG the team to avoid in the Champions League? Or do you think your team's defence can shackle Zlatan? Join the debate by leaving a comment below...

Vasant Panchami - The beginning of auspicious period
Vasant Panchami marks the onset of the spring season on the fifth day of the waning phase of the moon in the Hindu month (Magha) that falls in the month (Feburary –March). In 2015, Basat Pansami will fall on 24th January and auspicious time to pray to Goddess SaraswatiSaraswatiThe name Saraswati is a combination of two Sanskrit words... on Basant Panchami is 09:23:37 to 11:30:03.
Vasant Panchami is dedicated to Goddess Saraswati. She is depicted as the deity with the four hands and holding a plucked stringed instrument called Veena in her two hands and seated on a white lotus with four hands and wearing a pure silk white Sari A type of an Indian dressalong with a peacock, that signifies that wisdom suppresses ego. Four hands of the deity symbolize the different sides of human personality in learning. Goddess Saraswati is considered as the deity of spiritual knowledge, science, arts and music.
Vasant Panchami is considered as an auspicious occasion for students to start their studies, marking the new beginning of their learning period. Schools and colleges organize special prayers to worship goddess Saraswati. Many students place their books at the Goddess Saraswati feet and seek her blessing for better learning.
Vasant Panchami is also called the festival of harvest as it symbolizes blossoming flowers of mustard. Thus Yellow color has a great significance in the celebration of Vasant Panchami. Many followers of Goddess Saraswati adorn the idol of goddess with yellow sari. Goddess sarawati's devotees wear yellow attires on this day. Moreover the sweets and dishes prepared for the festival are usually yellow and saffron in color.
Many people offer food to Hindu priest and perform the traditional ritual of ancestral worshipping known as the Tarpan for the peace for all those who had passed away and seek their blessings for their future endeavors.
In many parts of the India, people set up a grand canopy to welcome the goddess and worship her. In West Bengal devotees carry out processions in which idols of Saraswati are carried to be immersed in the holy water of river GangaGangaAccording to Bhagavata Purana, Vishnu in one of..... Many places this day is celebrated by flying colorful kites especially Firozpur. Thus the Vasant Panchami is also called as the Kite Festival.
The festival is also celebrated in Nepal with great pomp and show. All the temples of Saraswati are decorated with yellow flowers, one day prior to the festival to welcome the goddess for the special meal on Vasant Panchami.

"Coach Jones has a clear blue print for this program and the results are showing," Faison said. "This team has had as much success as any team transitioning to the Division I level in recent years, including three straight CollegeInsider.com Postseason Tournament berths.
"We saw the immediate success his team had during its first year in the Big Sky. With the program heading in the right direction, we are happy to show him this level of commitment by extending his contract."
Jones led UND to a 12-8 record in the Big Sky Conference last season, which were the most wins ever by a league newcomer and his squad's third-place finish in the 11-team league was also the best ever by a first-year member. With a 16-16 regular season record, the team also earned its third straight appearance in the CollegeInsider.com Postseason Tournament.
"I am extremely grateful for this commitment from both President (Robert) Kelley and Mr. Faison," Jones said. "This will allow our program to continue to establish ourselves not only in the Big Sky Conference, but also among other Mid-Major programs."
Junior Troy Huff was one of two unanimous All-Big Sky First Team selections after leading the league in scoring at 19.2 ppg. He was named to the All-Big Sky Tournament Team and the Lou Henson Mid Major All-American Team. Classmate Aaron Anderson averaged a
career-high 13.3 ppg en route to All-Big Sky Second Team accolades.
Jones will have that dynamic scoring duo back along with five more of his top eight scorers for the 2013-14 season that will also see the addition of Texas Tech transfer Jaron Nash to the roster.
UND will play another 20-game Big Sky schedule in 2013-14 and will also play homes games against South Dakota State and North Dakota State. The entire 2013-14 schedule will be released later in July.

SYRACUSE, N.Y. Veteran center Ryan Craig netted a pair of goals to help the Admirals to a 4-3 third-period lead. However, Norfolk (1-4-0-0) surrendered a pair of third period tallies as they fell to the Syracuse Crunch (2-3-0-0) 5-4 on Friday night in their first game at the Onondaga County War Memorial at Oncenter since January 2003.
The Crunch and Admirals each scored on their first shots of the game. Syracuse took a 1-0 lead just 48 second in when Stefan Legein's shot from the left faceoff dot eluded Norfolk netminder Dustin Tokarski.
Norfolk tied the game just over two minutes later. Blair Jones sent a shot from the right wing that hit the post behind the left leg of Syracuse netminder Dan LaCosta. The puck trickled through the crease and Mark Parrish poked it in the net past the right leg of LaCosta at 2:49 for his first goal as an Admiral.
The Admirals took a 2-1 lead with their first power play goal of the season less than four minutes later. Parrish attempted a wraparound shot to the stick-side of LaCosta that the Crunch goaltender stopped. The rebound went to Ryan Craig, who chipped a shot up and over LaCosta for his second goal of the season at 6:45.
Syracuse knotted the score at 2-2 less than four minutes later. Brent Regner's shot from the left point was deflected by Tom Sestito past Tokarski at 10:36.
The game would not remain tied long, as the Admirals re-claimed the lead less than three minutes later on Paul Szczechura's first goal of the season. The third-year Admirals forward broke in along the left wing on a two-on-one break. His initial shot was denied by LaCosta, but Szczechura found the rebound in the bottom of the left circle and sent it past the Crunch netminder at 13:01.
The lead doubled for the visitors 5:16 into the second stanza with Craig's second goal of the game. Dana Tyrell sped down the right wing and sent a backhand pass from behind the goal line toward the slot. Adam Hall collected the pass and dished it across the slot to Craig, who deked to his backhand before slipping a shot past the left leg of LaCosta.
The Crunch cut Norfolk's lead in half at 16:04 of the middle period. Dan Fritsche sent a pass from the left half wall across the slot to the bottom of the right circle. Maksim Mayorov sent a one-timer past the outstretched left leg of Tokarski to make the score 4-3 in favor of Norfolk.
Syracuse stormed out of the gates in the third period with a pair of goals less than two minutes apart to take the lead. Derek MacKenzie found a Norfolk turnover in the right corner and sent a feed toward the crease. Alexandre Picard redirected the feed past Tokarski at 4:29 to level the score at four goals apiece.
The hosts took the lead at 6:17. Legein sent a shot from the right faceoff circle that bounced off Tokarski and into the slot. Jared Aulin found the rebound and fired it into the net for a 5-4 Syracuse lead.
The Admirals had several chances to tie the game late in the third period and pulled Tokarski in favor of an extra attacker but were unable to find the equalizer.
Dustin Tokarski (36 shots, 31 saves) picked up the loss. Dan LaCosta (26 shots, 22 saves) got the win.
Norfolk was 1-1 on the power play. Syracuse was 0-2.
The Admirals will conclude their road trip tomorrow night at 7:00 p.m. against the Bridgeport Sound Tigers. All Admirals games can be heard on STAR 1310-AM and star1310.com. You may also watch games on a subscription or pay-per-view basis online at ahllive.com.

Plans for 197 apartments on two corners of West Carolina Avenue and Florida Street go to the Downtown Memphis Commission Design Review Board at its May 1 meeting.
South Junction will rise on the vacant northwest and southeast corners of Carolina and Florida, in the South Main Historic Arts District.
South Junction Partners, the owners, plan to begin construction in July on an "urban infill multifamily residential development," according to the application for the 178,678 square feet of space.
The partners have applied for a payment-in-lieu-of-taxes (PILOT) incentive through the Memphis Center City Revenue Finance Corp.
South Junction is an area that Southland Development Partners had earlier plans to build in. State Place LLC had property at the same intersection a year ago that it sold to Renasant Bank in lieu of foreclosure when an earlier development plan fell through.
The South Junction application says the developers are talking with prospective lenders about financing.
Henry Turley Co. submitted the plans and application to the Design Review Board and Turley is one of the partners in South Junction along with Billy Orgel.
The northwest parcel of the South Junction project is across Tennessee Street from the offices of Southland Development Partners.

Mac lambs line up for slaughter
Is Apple airtight?
The unveiling of Apple's super-thin MacBook Air promises to expand further the Mac user base. That's troubling news for a platform that, as it enjoys greater uptake, risks the darker side of fandom - stalkers. Or, in this case, hackers and virus writers.
Security specialist F-Secure's latest claim to have discovered the first rogue program for the Apple Macintosh - MacSweeper - comes only weeks after it reported it's finding an alarming increase in the quantity of malware written for the Mac.
The MacSweeper scam - a Mac version of the false security scan familiar to Windows users - surfaced last month when some Mac users noticed the program had sneaked into their Mac OS/X systems.
The scammers cheekily stole the MacSweeper name from an obscure open source Mac clean-up utility program that has been available free since 2004. Whether consciously or not, they managed to exploit the confusion among some naive Mac users.
Apple users are, ahem, traditionally overly confident about their platform's security capabilities and F-Secure's report was dismissed as a cynical ploy to sell security protection.
This is a common criticism of security software companies. But the MacSweeper scam - while not an actual security breach - does highlight the possibility that the Mac's increased sales last year have made it a more attractive target for hackers.
Security specialist Secunia also noted that a small increase in Macintosh security problems in 2007 and a recently highlighted flaw in Quicktime - that still awaits a fix - raises questions about the Mac community's view of security issues.
Last month, Apple's attitude to security fixes was questioned and the criticism again rejected by Mac users with snooty assertions that Mac OS/X was secure - or at least a lot more secure than Microsoft Windows systems. So much so that there is a potentially huge contract waiting for Apple to supply the US military with Macs mainly because they are seen as more secure than PCs.
Apple has, of course, always maintained it takes security seriously. The recent Leopard release of Mac OS/X included new security features that were followed with updates in December.
The problem is that no matter how secure software is, there is always a way to break it and there will always be those who see it as a challenge. Times change, and Apple's growing user community cannot afford to be smug.®

State Police To Patrol in Asbury Park
State troopers will help patrol the streets of Asbury Park.
Four people have been killed and at least 25 have been wounded in shootings this year.
City Police Chief Mark Kinmon tells the Asbury Park Press around six troopers will focus on high crime areas one to two days a week. "We are hoping that it helps to address some of the ongoing issues that we have had here recently," Kinmon told the newspaper.. "We will certainly make sure they are aware of the problems and gang activity that we are seeing." They will focus on "quality of life" issues.
"They have no problem coming and are going to continue to do it as long as they can," Kinmon told the Asbury Park Sun.
State Police spokesman Lt. Stephen Jones says the patrols will be done as part of the troopers' normal work schedule so they will not incur additional costs.
The police chief says the 83 officers in the department are not enough to address all the city's needs. Kinmon says he would need closer to 100 officers. The department recently received a $625,000 federal grant for five new officers.
