José Mourinho came down the steps of the bus, walked into the Molinón flanked by four security guards and made his way to the VIP box, a safe distance from the touchline where his nemesis was prowling. Outside, an angry mob abused him. He couldn't hear them from behind the glass but, glancing across at the banners, he could see what they were saying – in graphic, if badly drawn, detail. But he just gazed out, impassive, making notes, occasionally reaching for the walkie talkie. At half-time, he was led down the stairs, along the corridor and into the dressing room. At the end, with Madrid having beaten Sporting Gijón 1-0 thanks to an 82nd-minute goal, he was escorted back to the team coach.
Where, back behind the glass, he raised two fingers.
He had won the battle. Cristiano Ronaldo complained of "anti-football" but although it was a fast, tough game, it was not the violent encounter those who seem to want every side in Spain to roll out the red carpet for Madrid and Barcelona have decried. Not least because Sporting played much as Sporting normally play at the Molinón. And the way that Ronaldo reacted to the last of the six fouls on him, leaping to his feet, puffing out his chest and shouting "¡más! ¡más!", suggested that maybe he had even enjoyed it. ¡Más! ¡Más! Bring it on!
Sporting brought it on. But it ended with another Madrid victory, a sixth in a row. Ronaldo, though determined and impressively resolute, was unable to make much impact; Mesut Ozil was anonymous; and even Angel Di María, so impressive lately, made way early. Yet Karim Benzema again came on to change the match – his header, saved by Juan Pablo, fell at the feet of Gonzalo Higuaín, enabling the man who never scores important goals to score another important goal. Immediately, Iker Casillas dived to stop David Barral header. It was his second save – the first was a neat catch on a sandwich thrown his way – and it secured victory, taking Madrid back on the top of the table and leaving Sporting only one point off the relegation zone.
Madrid had proven themselves resilient, competitive, aggressive. A team in Mourinho's image. But it was still not over and if Madrid had won the battle, it wasn't clear that Mourinho had won the war. Maybe Manolo Preciado had.
For those who don't know him, Preciado has the most magnificent moustache known to managers. The kind of thick, bushy facial foliage you could hide a family of badgers in, a tache that completely covers his lip. And that's saying something because the Sporting Gijón coach has a lot of lip. He's also got a lot of heart; he probably would hide a family of badgers in there if he thought it would help. He could hardly be earthier if he swallowed soil daily, lighting up a crafty fag on the back row of the dugout before steaming up and down the touchline like a wind-up toy, punching the air. But not before he's turned it blue. And this weekend he helped turn it bluer than ever before.
Preciado is like a Cantabrian Ian Dury, a people's poet and street philosopher with the deep gravely voice of the chain-smoker, floor vibrating with every word; the man who promised he would "bite" David Villa if he came too close to his touchline during one game but gave him a cuddle afterwards, claimed that Joaquín was "as dangerous as a monkey with a gun", and, after a good run followed a terrible one, insisted that: "We're not Bayern Leverkusen now … and back then we weren't the last crap Pontius Pilate ever took." The man who claimed that: "This is a cheap team but it's one with a pair of bollocks like General Espartero's horse."
He could have been talking about himself. Preciado certainly has a pair. A widower whose wife died from cancer and whose 15-year-old son was killed in a car crash, he says he had two choices: "I could have shot myself or I could have carried on." He chose the latter. A former Racing Santander player and lifelong fan, he became their coach just as Dimitry Piterman took over – "I moved into my dream home but a pigeon flew by and shat on my roof" – but he couldn't be more loved by fans 160 kilometres along the coast. He brought Sporting back after 10 years, kept his best players – one told him he would only stay if Preciado did – and kept his side up. His other son travels everywhere with fans and he clearly cares. When his side performed pathetically at Getafe, he declared himself "as overheated as a hippy's motorbike".
And that's pretty overheated. But nowhere near as overheated as Preciado got this week.
It all started on Friday afternoon. Well, actually, it all started back in September when Sporting travelled to the Camp Nou to face Barcelona and rested a number of starters. It didn't matter that they made life difficult for Pep Guardiola's side, who could win only 1-0, Mourinho was furious. Asked how many points his side would need to take the league off Barça he replied "the league is theirs". Sporting had gifted the win. "If that happens a lot," Mourinho said, "it will be very hard." At first, Preciado was prepared to let it go – he even told one interviewer "I like Mourinho" – but the Madrid coach repeated the accusation on the radio late on Thursday night and insisted that the decision should be punished. Suddenly, Mick McCarthy was known in Spain.
Preciado was listening, heating up like a hippy's motorbike. "In September I thought he'd just got it wrong but then I hear him again and not only does he not take it back, he goes and extends it. If no one at Real Madrid is going to tell this bloke how to behave, I will," Preciado spat. "Who the fuck does he think he is to say things like that? Who does he think he is to say that about a team like us: a humble side that fights to the very last to stay in the top flight? Well, we might be poor but we're not idiots. He is a bad colleague, egotistical."
"He is a canalla."
Now canalla is not easy to translate. Some dictionaries will tell you it's swine or rotter, but it's not really. Even Marca decided it was necessary to offer a translation: a low person, callous or mean, despicable. Depending on its stress, it has connotations of grubbiness, of a lack of morality; in certain circumstances in plural – as the world's great ever book underlines on pages 19, 84 and 119 – it would be a rabble, hoards, scum. Roughly, Mourinho was a lowlife, a scumbag.
It was, in short, pretty strong. Marca insisted that Preciado had gone too far. And yet, strikingly, almost everyone else was behind him. Many blamed Mourinho. He had got a taste of his own medicine; he had deserved it. He who sows winds reaps storms, as the phrase goes. Across the country, coaches were asked what they thought; most said Preciado had been entitled to defend himself. Privately, one coach admitted he would have loved to have said the same. Preciado, already hugely popular, his often funny foul mouth lauded, somehow emerged even more popular. Mourinho, already disliked beyond Madrid, got insulted and somehow emerged less popular. Mourinho had been suspended after telling a referee where to go in the previous game: when Preciado said that, rather than give him a VIP box, Sporting should stick him in with the hardcore Ultra Boys, most thought it funny.
Sporting's fans knew whose side they were on. The stadium that, in 1979, invented the now infamous "¡Así, así, así, gana el Madrí!" chant – the "that's how Madrid win" mantra that accompanies perceived acts of cheating of refereeing favours – was ready. Whistles and boos greeted Mourinho, along with chants of "Ese portugés, hijo puta es", while Ronaldo, his representative on the pitch, got the kicks they wanted to give him. The banners were out in force. "You might have millions, but you've got no bollocks," ran one. "You're only in this division because of your wallet," said another. A third, in Asturian, said: "Mourinho, don't you come here and wind people up." Another seemed to be drawn up by a bunch of bored schoolboys in a science class. "Mr Mourinho," it said, ever so politely "sit here". "Here" was a roughly drawn penis with hairs spouting out of its sack.
Meanwhile, the ultra boys chanted: "Mourinho, sit with us. Mourinho, sit with us. Mourinho sit with uuuuuuuuus!"
Instead he sat silently in his box. And, victorious, on his bus. Inside, Preciado was talking to the media. "Maybe I went too far in the way I said it, because I'm a bit of a brute," he conceded. "But not in the point I was making: I am very proud of what I said. I'd say it all over again; maybe in a different way but I would. I think the best way to say some things, the best way to defend yourself, is out loud." And with that, he got up and walked to his car. As he made his way across the car park, Mourinho waved two fingers his way – "I don't know if it was a V for victory or a 2 for the Second Division, but I can imagine," Preciado said. He didn't need to imagine. Someone came down the stairs of the Madrid bus and started shouting about how Sporting were going down.
And maybe they are. But not without a fight.
Talking Points
• Well, that's that sorted then. La Liga is a two-horse race – but definitely not because the third horse is a donkey. Saturday night at 10pm was set up as the game that would test the theory that it's only about the Big Two. AS called it the "bipolar test", which sounds like something else entirely, while Marca mumbled something about an attack on the "duopoly". Barcelona versus Villarreal at Camp Nou. Second versus third. Barcelona against the only side to take points from them at home last year – a side that had gone three years unbeaten at the Camp Nou.
And Villarreal were great. Thing is, Barcelona were greater. It finished 3-1 with two for Leo Messi, one for David Villa and one for Nilmar. Forget the flatness of recent weeks; forget the imbalance; forget the rubbish games; and forget the whinging and the whining, the crying and the conspiracies – although it is hard to when El Mundo Deportivo manages to give over half of their match report to a long bout of chip-on-shoulder blubbing. Forget the forgetfulness – "Mourinho gets a cold and it's bigger news than us going nine weeks unbeaten," said Santi Cazorla, quite rightly. Forget all that. Because this was a game to restore your faith. It was absolutely stunning, proper fun with a proper atmosphere and proper football.
"Most teams go to the Camp Nou and change their game," said Borja Valero. "But we won't." He was as good as his word. Villarreal attacked Barcelona. And Barcelona attacked them back. It was precise, fast, intense and technically impeccable. The kind of game where you feel like giving three out of three to every player. Villarreal were beaten but they had proven a point and could be hugely satisfied. Cazorla was still grinning after the game. (Mind you, he's always grinning). "They're the only team I have seen come and play just like us," said Dani Alves. "But we've got Messi." Villa scored a sensational first. Barcelona then got a second which was wrongly disallowed and immediately Nilmar clipped in an equally sensational equaliser. Then Messi, who later added the third, made it 2-1, playing two, first time one-twos with Pedro before lifting it over Diego Lopez from a tight angle.
Ping-ping-ping-ping … pop!
• Messi's goal might not have been the week's best. And not just because Villa's and Nilmar's might have been. Royston Drenthe scored a blinder of a free-kick to clinch a victory for Hércules, while Tino Costa smashed a proper rocket for Valencia against Getafe – on the chest, on the volley, back of the net. Oh, OK, let's face it, Messi's goal was the best.
• Jari Jarosik, a man who really shouldn't be playing top-flight football any more and may not be for much longer even if he does stay at Real Zaragoza, blew it. Really blew it. He tried to perform a back-heel even though he was the last man and it was the last minute. The result was depressingly predictable: Alvaro Negredo took it off him, ran through and scored to make it 2-1 and leave Zaragoza at the bottom of the table and coach José Aurelio Gay desperately clinging to his job. The headline on AS's website after the game read: "Gay: 'we do things we shouldn't do'." Which provokes one very important question: who was on the desk last night, Jan Moir?
• Athletic Bilbao beat Almería 1-0 despite missing a penalty. Diego Alves saved the spot kick from Mikel San José to keep up a ridiculously good record: he has now faced 14 penalties in Spain and conceded only four. But in the end that wasn't the story on Saturday night. What was was the fact that Athletic Bilbao beat Almería 1-0 dispite being down to nine man after having both of their left-backs sent off (on the day in which their first-choice left-back was suspended). Only they didn't. Not according to Iker Muniaín. "It was 11 against 40,000," he said. "We were never going to lose." The man bought down was Almería's Henok Goitom, whose shirt seemed at first to have come out the tumble dryer funny. Or maybe there had been a printing error. In fact, he had written his name in Tigrinya, the language of Eritrea. "Eritrea is a small country and a new one: they need all the help they can get and it's my heritage, that's why I did it," Goitom explained.
• That broken heart just doesn't mend, does it? Jilted lover Marca is still hopelessly bitter; the hate still flows freely. According to their online match report, which always has a "Best" and "Worst", the worst thing about Málaga's game against Levante was Manuel Pellegrini. So what did the Chilean do? Send out a dreadful side? Get his substitutions all wrong? Screw up his tactics? Throw away a lead? Lose again? Or did he, in his first ever game in charge, take Málaga to a first home win of the season and take them off the bottom? See if you can guess.
Results: Athletic 1-0 Almería, Atlético 3-0 Osasuna, Barcelona 3-1 Villarreal, Zaragoza 1-2 Sevilla, Hércules 2-1 Real Sociedad, Racing 0-0 Espanyol, Malaga 1-0 Levante, Mallorca 0-0 Deportivo, Sporting 0-1 Real Madrid, Valencia 2-0 Getafe.

Thanks for joining us with preliminary action already in progress for tonight's free UFC fight, AKA UFC on FOX 6 at 8 PM ET. My apologies for the delay, but I'm having some technical difficulties with my sinuses and let's just say some boogers are throwing knees at my brains right now. Sexy, right? Right. Let's get on with the chatty action, shall we?
Tonight's fight should be a doozie, with the main main event featuring Demetrious Johnson defending his Flyweight championship against John Dodson in what promises to be one hell of an exciting fight between two guys who are much, much skinnier than me. In the other main event, Rampage Jackson makes his return to the octagon to fight Glover Texeira, and let's just say that the man who brought B.A. Baracus to the big screen is less than excited about tonight's fight. He's basically just doing this to earn some extra coin, and that's a little depressing. But I guess that's the nature of the beast or something.
Other than those matchups, tonight's card looks pretty strong, and you can read our own Lobster Mobster's excellent UFC on FOX 6 primer at her blog. As always, thanks for joining us, and enjoy the free fights.

text: LOS ANGELES (AP) - Kelly Osbourne is resting at home after being hospitalized for five days following a seizure. A spokesman for the 28-year-old TV personality says doctors have given Osbourne 'a clean bill of health,' finding no conclusive results explaining why she collapsed on the set of E!'s 'Fashion Police' last week. Publicist Marcel Pariseau tells E! News that Osbourne 'is looking forward to returning to `Fashion Police' this week and getting back to business and life as usual.' Osbourne took to Twitter on Monday to thank the doctors and medical staff at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles for 'fixing me up enough to go home.' In another tweet, she compared her life to an episode of the medical show 'House.'

Nine months into job, director hasn't implemented GAO recommendations on training and tracking guard assignments.
The long-troubled Federal Protective Service, which some consider a "stepchild" within the Homeland Security Department, has made little progress in improving training of building security guards and has not fully implemented management tools for tracking assignments, witnesses told a House panel Wednesday.
Director L. Eric Patterson said FPS' four-year effort to develop a long-recommended centralized tool for prioritizing threats to federal buildings "was not cost-effective and has not fulfilled its original goals." The contractor for the tool, known as the Risk Assessment Management Program, has been relieved of future development duties but will continue working with the agency to maintain databases, Patterson told a hearing of the House Homeland Security Subcommittee on Cybersecurity, Infrastructure Protection and Security Technologies.
FPS, a 40-year-old agency recently moved from DHS' Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency to its National Protection and Programs Directorate, has long been targeted for reforms, has undergone multiple leadership changes and has prompted debate over whether some of its largely contractor workforce should be federalized.
This March, the agency was embarrassed when an improvised explosive device was discovered near the McNamara Federal Building in Detroit. An FPS security officer three weeks earlier had simply moved the suspicious package inside to the lost and found.
Subcommittee Chairman Rep. Daniel Lungren, R-Calif., called the hearing to "examine several perennial problems which have impacted the FPS mission," including poor management, weaknesses in oversight of the agency's 13,000 contract security guards and the need for enhanced training of guards.
In defending his agency, Patterson noted that FPS provides building security at 9,000 federal facilities in 50 states, through whose portals 1 million people pass each day. He reported that FPS security forces on average make 1,600 arrests and confiscate 700,000 dangerous objects annually.
He said in his first nine months on the job, he established an important code of conduct for employees, and that his response to the dangerous incident in Detroit was to send in a mobilized training team and launch an audit of the responsible contractor, which was fined. The guard who failed to promptly process what was later revealed as a pipe bomb was terminated.
But testimony by Mark Goldstein, director of physical infrastructure at the Government Accountability Office, faulted FPS for being slow to develop a systematic risk management approach to prioritizing threats and vulnerabilities in buildings. He said the agency has not addressed key human capital issues or figured out the optimal size for its workforce, does not collect sufficient data on contractors and has not reviewed the structure of the fees it charges agencies for service. "Of 28 recommendations the GAO has made since 2007," he said, FPS has fully implemented none and has begun to address only 21.
Patterson agreed on the need for risk management, saying, "Not all threats are the same, and not all vulnerabilities the same. They should be assessed independently of one another." As for implementing RAMP, he acknowledged some "challenges in antiquated methods of collecting data," but predicted the project should start to move soon.
Several members, including full committee ranking member Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., encouraged House passage of H.R. 176, a bill aimed at improving oversight and launching a study on federalization of more FPS contract guards.
But Steve Amitay, legislative counsel of the National Association of Security Companies, said industry opposed any move toward federalization and added contractors maintain a good relationship with FPS.
Representatives of federal workers backed the bill. "The time for reports and hearings is past," said David Wright, president of the National Federal Protective Service Union, American Federation of Government Employees. He called for passage of H.R. 176 and a similar bill pending in the Senate, arguing that contract guards are not as well trained as federal employees and that FPS is the "only law enforcement organization in Homeland Security that has less staff than it had at DHS' inception."

In this post, I will walk you through the process of roasting cauliflower to sweet, tender, caramelized perfection. Use simple salt and pepper or add garlic, parmesan, and other spices. However you dress it up, roasted cauliflower is downright delicious.
Cauliflower is one of those vegetables I had to learn to love. On its own, I find it kind of boring. I wanted to like it, because it's really healthy– cruciferous vegetables like cauliflower are known to lower your risk of cancer, and nutritionists recommend that you eat them at least 3-5 times per week. Cauliflower is full of antioxidants, and it has anti-inflammatory properties as well. It's also loaded with fiber. But I was never too excited about cauliflower… until I discovered the magic of roasting.
When you roast cauliflower, it's transformed into something so tasty, you almost forget you're eating veggies. All you need is a touch of oil, salt and pepper to turn ordinary cauliflower into something extraordinary. The dry heat of the oven makes the cauliflower perfectly tender, and the roasting pan caramelizes the flat surfaces and edges.
The secret to roasted cauliflower's amazing flavor comes from that caramelization. I've provided roasting instructions below, along with slicing instructions to ensure that you have lots of flat surfaces on your cauliflower pieces– this will increase caramelizing to a maximum.
It's difficult to measure cauliflower florets (more technically known as curds) in cups because of their bulk and strange shape. I prefer to measure them by weight. Here is a rough guide that will tell you the weight of florets that differently sized cauliflower heads will produce. Bear in mind that each head of cauliflower is different, so this chart is a rough estimate:
How many florets will my cauliflower head yield?
1.5 lbs. cauliflower head = 1 lb. florets
2 lbs. cauliflower head = 1.5 lbs. florets
2.5 lbs. cauliflower head = 2 lbs. florets
3 lbs. cauliflower head = 2.5 lbs. florets
If you need to know how many cups of florets you'll have, an average sized cauliflower (2 lbs.) will produce roughly 3-4 cups of uncooked florets. After roasting, the florets shrink up quite a bit.
Olive oil, salt and pepper are really all you need to make mouthwatering roasted cauliflower. You can certainly add other ingredients to enhance the flavor– I've suggested a few ideas below. Parmesan cheese is most popular. Garlic adds a lovely aroma. Depending on the type of meal you're making, you can enhance the flavor with a variety of herbs and spices (smoked paprika is a favorite of mine). Feel free to get creative. Enjoy!

How to Roast Cauliflower - Learn how to roast cauliflower to achieve maximum amount of flavor in minimum amount of time.
- 1 head cauliflower
- 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- Salt and pepper
Recipe Notes
Optional Ingredients: 2-3 cloves minced fresh garlic, 1-2 tsp your favorite herb or spice (oregano, smoked paprika, thyme, and red chili pepper flakes work well), lemon zest, Parmesan cheese, or fresh lemon juice.
You will also need: baking sheet, tongs
Place a rack in the center of your oven and preheat to 425 degrees F.
Pull the leaves off of the cauliflower base. Cut off the lower part of the stem.
Cut the head of cauliflower into four quarters.
Slice each quarter into 6-8 pieces. You want as many flat surfaces as possible on each floret-- the flat surfaces caramelize best. Caramelization is the key to giving the roasted cauliflower flavor.
Give all the florets a thorough rinse in a colander. Shake them dry.
Spread the florets out in an even layer on the baking sheet. Reserve any small bits of cauliflower that have fallen away from the florets in a small bowl. (Please note - in this tutorial the baking sheet is lined with foil, but I no longer use foil for this process--I simply use a plain baking sheet).
Drizzle the florets evenly with 1 tbsp olive oil. I use a measuring spoon of olive oil for this step, which makes it easier to gauge how much oil I'm using, rather than pouring straight from the bottle. Toss the florets to coat them fully with oil-- I use clean hands for this.
Sprinkle the cauliflower florets evenly with salt and pepper. At this point, you can also sprinkle them with your choice of optional herbs or spices - garlic, oregano, pepper flakes, etc. - to taste. If using parmesan or lemon juice, sprinkle those on at the end of roasting.
Place the baking sheet into the preheated oven and let the cauliflower roast for 10 minutes.
While cauliflower is cooking, drizzle 1/4 tsp of olive oil into the small bowl of reserved cauliflower bits that have fallen away from the florets and toss to coat. You will add these to the sheet a little later so they won't burn.
After 10 minutes, remove the baking sheet from the oven. Use tongs to turn over the florets, making sure that the florets with flat surfaces are pressed directly against the baking sheet. This will enhance caramelization.
Sprinkle the reserved cauliflower bits onto the baking sheet.
Return the baking sheet to the oven. Let the cauliflower roast for 10-20 minutes longer till tender. When it's ready you will be able to pierce it easily with a fork.
The flat surfaces should be nicely caramelized at this point.
If you plan to add parmesan cheese and/or lemon juice, now is the time. Sprinkle evenly to taste.
Serve hot.
Note: nutritional information above is for 1 head of cauliflower divided into 4 servings, without added salt and pepper. Nutrition will vary based on size of cauliflower, amount of salt and pepper added, and any additional ingredients used.

Winsor McCay: his life and art
Harry N. Abrams, 2005 - Art - 271 pages
This volume is the only existing biography of one of America's greatest and most influential cartoonists. Winsor McCay (1867-1934) is universally acknowledged as the first master of both the comic strip and the animated cartoon. Although invented by others, both genres were developed into enduring popular art of the highest imagination through McCay's innovative genius. Originally published in 1987, it is now back in print in a newly expanded and revised edition on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of "Little Nemo in Slumberland." Included are new materials found since the previous publication of the book such as new comic strips of "Little Nemo in Slumberland," and new sketches of "Gertie the Dinosaur" In the book the author reviews and fully analyzes McCay's achievements in print and film while examining his work in relation to his life, family, and to American culture and values of the period. This painstakingly thorough biography begins with McCay's childhood in Michigan to his seat as one of the greatest of the early animators.

Tracking the Success of Your iPad App
The App Store is the place to list your iPad apps. Marketing those apps so that people will buy them, however, is entirely up to you. The App Store is right at your iPad customers' fingertips.
Assemble as much information about your target customer as possible — demographics, education, income level, and so on — because this information will influence all your marketing decisions, from the text you write in your descriptions and ads to the channels you use to distribute your message. Unfortunately, the App Store doesn't tell you who your customers are, so you need to do a little digging:
Adding analytical code to your app: There are several analytics options for iPad apps if you're willing to compile the necessary code into your app. For example, Pinch Analytics from Pinch Media is used in thousands of popular apps because it can track any action anywhere in your app. Armed with this information, you can fine-tune the user experience in your updates and offer new features to try to catch usage drop-off as early as possible and retain more customers. You can also measure all types of revenue, from paid downloads and subscriptions to advertising and in-app purchases.
Putting ads in your app: Free apps can still generate revenue. To put your free app to work, you need to monetize the app with advertisements. You can put ads in your apps from AdMob, Mobclix, and Quattro Wireless.
These are ad exchanges that act as online marketplaces for buying and selling advertising impressions. Developers can earn income by placing space in their apps (known as inventory) in an auction for advertisers, ad networks, and agencies. The latter can maximize their click-through rates by bidding on precisely targeted audience segments. Thus, the more you know about your own customers, the more ads you can get for your app that are precisely targeted for more clicks (and therefore more income).
Tracking downloads: Apple releases daily sales reports in iTunes Connect, which you can view online or download, with the name of the app, how many were sold and in which country, and your profit. You can import these reports into any spreadsheet program, like Excel or iWork Numbers.
Here's how to find your app's daily sales reports through iTunes Connect:
Log in to iTunes Connect.
Click the Sales/Trend Reports link.
You get shunted to the Transaction Reports page.
Pick Summary in the Report Type pop-up menu, and then click Daily or Weekly in the Report Period pop-up.
You can't pick Monthly Free unless your app is free.
After picking your report, click Download to download it or Preview to view it.
Some savvy developers have come up with a number of desktop applications that download and graph the iTunes Connect sales data for you, including AppViz (a Mac application that displays charts of your daily, weekly, and monthly sales) and appFigures (a Web-based solution for tracking app sales).

Human Services is the largest state agency, with more than 2,100 employees.
The next two-year budget for North Dakota's Department of Human Services has broken the billion-dollar mark.
The state House and Senate approved a Human Services budget Wednesday that calls for state general fund spending just under $1.2 billion — a record state agency budget, The Bismarck Tribune reported (http://bit.ly/162d0Ku ). The bill now goes to Gov. Jack Dalrymple for his signature.
Human Services is the largest state agency, with more than 2,100 employees. Total spending for the department, including federal money, is estimated at just under $3 million over the next two years, the majority on Medicaid services.
Human Services Director Maggie Anderson said her agency's budget sends most of the money right back out the door. Programs fund food stamps that are redeemed at local grocery stores, pay for services at local nursing homes and help citizens with medical and dental care and pharmacy expenses.
"It goes not only to citizens of the state, but also to the economy of local areas," said Anderson, who was appointed to head the department on Monday. She had been serving as interim director after her predecessor, Carol Olson, retired last August.

Plasma rifles or plasma casters are energy based weapons that appear in Fallout, Fallout 2, Fallout 3, Fallout: New Vegas, Fallout 4, Fallout 76, Fallout Tactics, Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel, Fallout Shelter, and Fallout: The Board Game.
Plasma rifles or plasma casters are high-tech weapons which find numerous applications in military and industrial fields. They fire superheated bolts of plasma powered by either microfusion cells, heavy energy cells or plasma cartridges. The bolt forms in a special chamber, which is then sent down a superconducting barrel,[1][2] propelled by, and in some models stabilized by electromagnetic claws upon exiting it.[3]
The plasma bolt is a toroid of superheated hydrogen gas that delivers high levels of both thermal and kinetic energy damage to the target, melting through most types of armors and causing massive 3rd-degree and 4th-degree burns.
Initially, these weapons were bulky, industrial plasma casters designed to be an industrial welding tool rather than a weapon, manufactured by Winchester Arms; while it performed admirably as a welding tool, it was expensive and required specialized training to use. However, later developments for the US Army would lead to more compact and smaller designs, such as the plasma pistol and plasma rifle, that were cheaper to produce and easier to train for, perfectly suited for urban warfare.[4]
Regardless, all types of plasma weapons have a common feature: when a Critical Hit is delivered, they can literally melt down enemies. While most industrial casters aren't powerful enough to dissolve bones too, subsequent models have no problem converting the target into a puddle of goo.
Winchester P94Edit
The Winchester Model P94 is a bulky, industrial-grade energy caster, firing superheated bolts of plasma down a superconducting barrel,[1] ending in electromagnetic claws helping to stabilize the plasma bolt.[3] However, in an interview for Future Weapons Today, US Army Colonel Moretti slammed the design,[4] likely for being bulky and outdated.[5][6]
Winchester P94 turboEdit
It's a modified version of the Winchester P94 plasma rifle. The plasma bolt chamber has been hotwired to accelerate the bolt formation process, resulting in an increase in the rate of fire.[7]
- For the modification that appears in Fallout: New Vegas, see : Plasma caster HS electrode.
The Smitty SpecialEdit
The Smitty Special is a heavily modified Winchester P94 which was first created by the legendary Smitty, the blacksmith of the Adytum, Boneyard in 2161, who was also the only one able to improve the Winchester P94 into a turbo version at that time, with a higher rate of fire.
|The following is based on Fallout Tactics and some details might contradict canon.
Winchester P94 militaryEdit
|End of information based on Fallout Tactics.
Urban plasma rifleEdit
This plasma rifle is a lightweight urban warfare weapon[4] created by REPCONN Aerospace for the US Army based on engine parts from the failed Z43-521P - "Green Bean" plasma-powered rocket. Like the AER9 laser rifle, it uses a microfusion cell as its power supply. It taps into the cell, essentially a small fusion reactor, to produce a toroid of plasma that is ejected down a superconducting barrel.[2] In contrast to the Winchester P94, it does not have the electromagnetic claws.
As of 2277, these plasma rifles can usually be found in use by Enclave soldiers on the East Coast. By 2281, they can be found less commonly throughout the Mojave Wasteland.

V.32 Quantum plasma modulation matter injection rifleEdit
Version: 32
Status: Failure
Notes: While v.32 didn't have the power yield of the v.31 or v.30, we managed to increase the stabilization threshold by approximately 27.35%. This is promising, however we still have yet to come up with a solution for the matter inversion issues.[8]
V.33 Quantum plasma modulation matter injection rifleEdit
Version: 33
Status: Failure
Notes: Lab destroyed. Data Lost.[8]
V.34 Quantum plasma modulation matter injection rifleEdit
Version: 34
Status: Failure
Notes: Interesting. I'm not sure where we got this data from, it is a completely different direction from what we've been working on. We managed to cycle the matter inversion using a polarized quantum spin. I think that we solved the issue with the Compensation field, I have high hopes for the next weapon.[8]
V.35 Quantum plasma modulation matter injection rifleEdit
Also known as the Q-35 matter modulator, the V.35 Quantum plasma modulation matter injection rifle was created by REPCONN Aerospace engineers as part of "Project: Quantum Plasma Modulation Matter Injection Rifle,"[8] a research program overseen by Colonel Moretti of the US Army,[5] who was looking for a replacement for the aging plasma rifle designs, most importantly the Winchester P94.[4][6] The prototype was created by a team of engineers under the lead of Senior Staff Engineer Xuan Duong, using design specifications stolen from Poseidon Energy for the canceled plasma rifle project SEMELE, along with data recovered from a sabotaged REPCONN launch.[5]
This data allowed REPCONN to create a functional prototype after thirty-four failures. While prototype materials make it unsuitable for prolonged field use, the Q-35 has a longer refire rate on average - but a more consistent delay between shots, an increase in active bolt charge time, increased accuracy and a 30% increase in bolt energy.[8]
When the prototype was completed, unknown individuals conspired with REPCONN CFO Julia Masters to intercept and secure the prototype while it was in transit to the Department of Defense.[9]
Multiplas rifleEdit
The multiplas rifle (a portmanteau of "multiple" and "plasma") is based on the urban plasma rifle design. It is a sort of "plasma shotgun," firing three rounds of plasma in a volley, at the cost of a massive drain on the microfusion cell.
Plasma gunEdit
This plasma weapon is similar in design to the urban plasma rifle, though it differs slightly in appearance. It is highly modular, being available in pistol, rifle, scattergun, sniper, and flamethrower configurations. Unlike other plasma weapons, it utilizes plasma cartridges for ammunition.
Electric plasma rifleEdit
|The following is based on Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel and has not been confirmed by canon sources.
The electric plasma rifle appears only in the city of Los and the Secret Vault. It's to be manufactured using technology contained in the Secret Vault. It's equipped by the most important ghouls of the Church of the Lost and some super mutants of Attis' army.
Turbo electric plasma rifleEdit
|The following is based on Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel and has not been confirmed by canon sources.
The turbo electric plasma rifle is a upgraded version of the electric plasma rifle, and is found only in the Secret Vault. It's to be manufactured using technology contained in the Secret Vault. It's equipped by the most important super mutants of Attis' army and by the champion of the Gladiator Pit in Los, the wasteland stranger.

Mitsubishi Precis Oil Pressure Sensor Replacement Cost
Know what price you should pay to get your vehicle fixed.
What is an oil pressure sensor?
The oil pressure sensor is monitors the pressurization of the oil as it travels through the engine, and reports that pressure to the engine's computer.
How does the oil pressure sensor work?
Without the proper pressure, oil can't reach all parts of the engine or move as rapidly as it should, thus wearing it out faster. The oil pressure sensor is able to monitor this pressure and alert the computer when it drops to low. The computer can make changes to protect the engine and alert the driver of the problem.
What are the symptoms related to a bad oil pressure sensor?
When the oil pressure sensor fails, the signal that it sends to the engine's computer will be inaccurate, causing the engine's computer to behave as through the oil pressure is too high or too low.
This may cause the check engine light or oil pressure warning light to illuminate on the instrument cluster. Also, the engine may be placed in limp mode for engine protection.
Can I drive with a oil pressure sensor problem?
A car with low engine oil pressure should not be driven. The engine may start and run normally, but without oil pressure, you can ruin your engine. If your oil pressure warning light is on, you should have the car towed to a repair shop.
How often do oil pressure sensors need to be replaced?
There's no set schedule for replacement, or even a way to predict when the sensor might fail. Most vehicles will never have an issue with the oil pressure sensor, and changing the oil and oil filter on time may help prevent premature failure.
How are oil pressure sensor issues diagnosed?
When diagnosing a possible loss of oil pressure, the technician will check the oil level first, then the engine will be inspected for oil leaks.
If the oil is full, and there are no leaks, the technician will connect a scanner to the vehicle to compare what its sensors are saying to the actual conditions. The technician will test the oil pressure sensor and associated electrical circuit, and determine if the sensor should be replaced.
Oil Pressure Sensor Replacement Cost Estimates
The average cost for an Oil Pressure Sensor Replacement is between $49 and $66 but can vary from car to car.
How is an oil pressure sensor replaced?
If the oil pressure sensor is faulty, it will be removed and replaced. The location of the sensor varies by make and model, but it's usually near the oil filter or in the cylinder head.
Can I replace the oil pressure sensor myself?
Oil pressure warning light diagnosis should be left to a professional. There is always the possibility that the oil pressure sensor went bad, but without proper testing, starting the vehicle becomes a gamble.

A helicopter crashed into a crane on top of one of Europe's tallest residential blocks on Wednesday, killing two people as it burst into flames and threw plumes of smoke into the foggy air above central London.
Police said there was nothing to suggest a terrorism link to the crash on the south bank of the River Thames in the British capital, where 52 commuters were killed in rush hour suicide bombings in 2005.
"There was a really loud bang," said Julie Marsden, who works in an office building near the crash site which is close to landmarks such as the headquarters of Britain's MI6 international intelligence agency and the Houses of Parliament.
"We saw the crane fall to the ground and this massive plume of black smoke," Marsden told Reuters.
Witnesses said the helicopter hit the crane on top of the as yet unoccupied 185-metre (200-yard) high cylindrical block - The Tower, One St George Wharf - span out of control, fell to the ground and burst into flames, setting nearby buildings alight.
There was wreckage and debris strewn across roads close to Vauxhall train station, a major transport hub on the south side of London, which was packed with thousands of commuters at the time of the incident shortly after 0800 GMT.
A Reuters reporter at the scene said tangled bits of crane could be seen hanging off the side of the tower, the top of which was still shrouded by low cloud an hour after the crash.
Police Commander Neil Basu said the helicopter was on a commercial flight from Redhill, south of the capital, to Elstree, home to famous British film studios in north London, but had been diverted to a heliport near the crash site.
He said there were 11 casualties including two dead and one critically injured. The emergency services said the pilot was one of those killed and it was not thought anyone else was on board. The other fatality was found near the wreckage and the fire service said it had rescued a man from a burning car.
The helicopter involved was an Italian-made AgustaWestland 109, the company's best selling VIP corporate helicopter, according to a source familiar with the situation. The twin-engined helicopter can carry eight passengers.
Out of control
Rezart Islami a construction worker from Kosovo who had been on a nearby site, said he saw the helicopter flying fast up the river before it smashed into the crane which then fell and hit two cars.
"I was shocked, it was spinning around and lost control," he told Reuters.
Another witness, Edmir Pishtar, who was in a van outside the building site, said he saw half the crane crash down and cut into two cars on the road. He later spoke to the operator who was about to get inside the crane cab.
"He was literally shaking because he was getting ready to climb into the crane and he was late," Pishtar said.
The Tower, One St George Wharf, is described on its website as the epitome of luxury London living, with 360-degree views across the capital and over the Houses of Parliament.
Builder Brookfield Multiplex said the tower, which is not occupied and is under construction, has 52 floors and houses 212 luxury apartments. Media reports in recent years have suggested the Penthouse apartments could go for as much as 50 million pounds ($80 million).
"Fortunately for us we have done a full headcount and there are no injuries or fatalities among anyone on the site," said Tony Pidgley, chairman of the tower's developer Berkeley Group .
"The crane driver normally starts at eight o'clock but unusually, today of all days, was late."
He said it was too early to speculate on the cause of the crash but helicopters should normally fly 500 feet (150 metres)above tall structures.
Police were questioning witnesses in the area and dozens of emergency vehicles were in attendance, Reuters reporters said. Roads around the area including a route over the Thames were closed off, and bus and rail services were affected.
"There's nothing to suggest any terrorism link," a spokesman for London's Counter Terrorism Commandsaid. The fire service said eight fire engines and 60 firefighters were on the scene.
Helicopters in London are generally supposed to fly along the River Thames but London City Airportsaid its flights had been disrupted due to low visibility.
The Department of Transport's crash investigation unit said it was preparing the launch an inquiry into the incident. ($1 = 0.6215 British pounds)

COOKEVILLE, Tenn. — Tennessee Tech rallied from a 14-point
halftime deficit but a missed extra point along with missed
opportunities to convert Murray State turnovers cost the Golden
Eagles in a 38-37 Homecoming loss at Tucker Stadium Saturday.
Desite the one-point loss, Tech's hopes of winning the Ohio Valley Conference championship remain bright as the Golden Eagles prepare to visit league-leading Eastern Kentucky next Saturday. The Colonels ralied to defeat Jackonville State Saturday, setting the stage for the title showdown.
If Tech wins its final two games (at EKU and home against Austin Peay, Nov. 19), the Golden Eagles would win the crown via the OVC tie-breaker.
The Golden Eagles put together a 13-play, 87-yard scoring drive that was capped on a 13-yard touchdown pass from Tre Lamb to Tim Benford with 2:05 left in the game, but freshman kicker Zach Sharp's extra-point attempt hit the upright and bounced out.
Tech's ensuing onside kick attempt went out of bounds, giving Murray State possession. With no time outs remaining, the Golden Eagles could not stop the clock and the Racers downed the ball three times to run out the clock.
With the loss, Tech slips to 5-3 overall and 4-2 in the Ohio Valley Conference. Murray State improves to 5-4 overall and 3-3 in the OVC.
It was a record-setting day for the Golden Eagles despite the loss as wide receiver Tim Benford became the school's all-time leading receiver with 2,952 yards, surpassing Larry Shipp. Benford also tied Shipp's record for most career touchdown catches with 27.
Trailing 31-17 at halftime, the Golden Eagles put together two long touchdown drives in the third quarter to tie the game at 31 with 1:36 left in the period.
On the first scoring drive, Tech gained its yardage almost exclusively on the ground, getting an 18-yard carry from Zack Ziegler and a one-yard touchdown carry from Dontey Gay with 9:37 left in the quarter.
After forcing a Murray State punt that the Racers downed at the TTU two-yard-line, the Golden Eagles launched an eight-play, 98-yard drive that resulted in a game-tying four-yard touchdown run from Gay.
Adam Urbano played a key role in the drive, coming up with a 38-yard carry on the first play to get the Golden Eagles out of the shadow of their own end zone, then catching a screen pass from Tre Lamb and taking it 24 yards to the Murray State four-yard line.
The Racers responded, however, putting together a 14-play, 82-yard scoring drive of their own that resulted in a one-yard Casey Brockman touchdown dive.
After Tech's next drive stalled, Richmond Tooley came up with what could have been a game-saving play, diving to intercept a Brockman pass at the Murray State 43-yard line. Tech couldn't move the ball once again as Lamb was stopped on a fourth-down quarterback keeper, but the Golden Eagle defense forced a punt, giving the offense another shot with 6:49 left on the clock.
This time, TTU marched 87 yards on 13 plays getting two big completions from Lamb, one a 16-yarder to Ziegler and another a 29-yard gainer to Benford before the 13-yard scoring strike with 2:05 left.
Murray State committed two turnovers in the game, neither of which the Golden Eagles could turn into points. Ja-Vonta Trotter muffed a punt return late in the second quarter, but the Golden Eagles went three-and-out. Tech also couldn't take advantage of Tooley's interception.
Lamb finished the game 14-for-29 for 197 yards and two touchdowns while Urbano led Tech's ground game, carrying nine times for 119 yards, an average of 13.2 yards per carry. Dontey Gay also carried 17 times for 89 yards. Benford was the Golden Eagles' leading receiver, catching six passes for 116 yards and a score.
Brockman went 31-for-43 for 270 yards and three touchdowns. Mike Harris carried 16 times for 56 yards to lead the Racer ground game, while Duane Brady had 11 carries and picked up 52 yards. Harris was also Murray State's top receiver, catching five passes for 73 yards.
Tennessee Tech took a quick 10-0 lead out of the gate on a 21-yard field goal from Zach Sharp and an eight-yard touchdown pass from Lamb to Charlie Stevens. The Racers came back, however, scoring on a 24-yard touchdown pass from Brockman to Nevar Griffin, then taking a 14-10 lead on a four-yard Mike Harris touchdown run.
Tech regained the advantage when Dontey Gay ran in a touchdown from five yards out to make the score 17-14, but from there Murray State scored on three consecutive possessions to take a 31-14 lead into the break.
The Golden Eagles travel to Eastern Kentucky next week for a 12
noon CST kickoff in Richmond.
Pregame Notes
*Much is at stake in today's Homecoming game as Tech looks to stay on top of the Ohio Valley Conference. At 5-2 overall and 4-1 in the league, the Golden Eagles are in a three-way tie for first place with Jacksonville State and Eastern Kentucky and are ranked No. 15 in the nation in the FCS Coaches poll and No. 20 in the Sports Network/Fathead.com poll.

Design: Honoring Steve Jobs legacy with a shrine of simple lines, simple messages
No surprise to find a shrine to the late Steve Jobs at the Apple store in Denver's Cherry Creek Shopping Center. What is striking is how orderly it is. Neat and clean, functional, nothing extra.
Notice the well-groomed lines of sticky testimonial messages placed on the wall outside the shop. Color-coded, evenly spaced, symmetrical. The words are second to the look of it.
Jobs, whose Apple stores followed the same sparse motif, and who appeared at product unveilings dressed down in simple black shirts, would have been amused.
He died last week at age 56, though his high-tech empire seems safe. The store was packed.

The bodies of a Navy veteran and his girlfriend were discovered Sunday inside a home in Rowlett.
Officers in Rowlett said 35-year-old Brandon McClain's mother went to check on her son after he missed his son's baseball game Saturday.
When he didn't answer the door, she walked to the back of the house and saw the body of 30-year-old Amanda Todhunter in the kitchen floor. She immediately called police who later found McClain's body near his girlfriend's in the kitchen..
Both the man and woman suffered gunshot wounds to the head.
Police confirmed Todhunter shot her boyfriend [McClain], then killed herself sometime after 3 p.m. Saturday. That was when McClain last communicated with his mother though text messages about something unrelated.
According to family and friends, she was upset about him breaking up with her. Todhunter had moved out of the home two weeks ago.
Officers told NBC 5 McClain called them on May 24 to tell them he was concerned because Todhunter showed up at his house with a gun threatening to commit suicide.
"We've had two previous calls over here," said Lt. David Nabors, Commander of the Rockwall Police Department's Criminal Investigations Division. "One of them was an assault case back in February."
Neighbors said Todhunter's two young children played with other children in the neighborhood, but others said the couple kept mostly to themselves.
According to his Facebook page, McClain worked at Navy Recruiting District Dallas. Calls to the Navy have yet to be returned.
NBC 5's Holley Ford contributed to this report.

NYC Artist's 'Salt Bible' Prompts Readers to Question Literal Interpretation of Gospel
A New York City artist modified a copy of the Bible and embedded a small jar of salt on a corner of its cover with the instructions, "Take before reading," as a representation of his artistic approach to reading the scriptures, which he says should be taken with a grain of salt.
"The 'Salis Bible' is a response to fundamentalist Christians who interpret the Bible as inerrant truth, and believe it gives them the right to restrict the freedoms of others in a democracy that promises separation of church and state. It is a request for readers to keep an open mind and to draw their own moral conclusions," Zach Myrow writes on his website.
Myrow told The Christian Post the inspiration for the Salis Bible "had been brewing for years" adding that he considers those who question religion to have a richer life experience versus those who take the Gospel message literally.
He argues that certain biblical passages on homosexuality, divorce and premarital sex are outdated and do not align with today's society and encourages readers to decide which scriptures resonate best with them.
"Although irreverent, the Salt Bible is not meant to offend. It is meant to prompt readers to be vigilant and, more importantly, to go into reading the Bible asking questions," said Myrow.
However, not everyone agrees with his perspective.
"This is not the first time someone minimizes and diminishes the authority of the Bible," said Erik Thoennes, professor of biblical and theological studies at Biola University.
He added, "There are things in the Bible that he wouldn't like for us to take with a grain of salt, including loving your enemies and human rights. I chose to realize I need a higher perspective other than my own limited perspective and culture," referring to his belief in the literal meaning of the Bible.
Thoennes says the Salt Bible is merely an interpretation of Myrow's own contemporary culture.
"Everyone has an authority, wherever contemporary culture happens to be, whether it's Miley Cyrus or whatever is cool. It's a terrifying prospect and very arrogant to say that our own stance right now, is it."
He also said the Bible should be taken literally because "if someone knows the Bible to be the truth, I know no other take," while adding, "his piece of art will come and go but the Bible's profound influence will remain."
Contrary to Thoennes' differing opinion, Myrow said the feedback on his Salt Bible has been positive and encouraging.
"I have received some constructive criticism and different interpretations on what the piece means. Some have drawn parallels to Lot's Wife and Pliny the Elder," said Myrow, referring to a biblical figure who became a pillar of salt and a Roman write known to have coined the term, "a grain of salt."
According to Myrow, readers of the Bible should recognize different teachings and have tolerance of the conclusions that others may draw.
"Many people are frustrated with those who try to change others for having different beliefs. Self-discovery, personal growth and guidance can be sought from the Bible, but it has also been used to legitimize the restriction of others' rights," said Myrow.
He added, "I asked people to take the Bible with a grain of salt. In the spirit of personal growth and questioning, I expect people to take my words with one too."
