Bench helps Bulldogs outlast Tigers
SAVANNAH -- For the first time in almost a year, Citadel guard Cameron Wells failed to score in double digits. Add in a season-low four points from backcourt mate Zach Urbanus, and Saturday's basketball game at Savannah State could easily have ended in disaster. Instead, the Bulldogs re-discovered some alternate means of scoring, and held on for a 54-47 victory over SSU before 350 fans at Tiger Arena. |

New Standard Java Spec Emerges
In what is being called "the most significant enhancement to the Java platform," a consortium of Java-related companies launched the newest version of the Java 2 Standard Edition (J2SE).
As previously reported, version 5.0 of the specification -- also known as "Project Tiger" -- is the basis for developing portable applications for the server or desktop. The platform and Java Runtime Environment (JRE) are now available for download with 105 new features including generics, enumerated types, metadata and autoboxing of primitive types for easier and faster coding.
The update also supports C-style formatted input/output, variable
arguments, concurrency utilities and a simpler RMI (Remote Method
Invocation) interface generation, new JVM (Java Virtual Machine) monitoring,
management API
"This is an illustration of how far a community can go when it works
together," Calvin Austin, J2SE 5.0 spec lead and Sun senior engineer told
internetnews.com. "Of the things that proved we were listening to the
community is the start up time feature, which helps the desktop users and
notification of low memory in the system, which was one of the biggest
requests by server users."
In a conference call with reporters, the JCP said it is already working on J2SE v.6.0 or "Project Mustang." Graham Hamilton, vice president, Sun fellow and lead architect for J2SE 5.0 said the next release should come out in 2006.
"The plan is to continue with the early access drops. Developers really appreciated that they could get advanced parts of the code in the Tiger release," Hamilton said. "The theme for Mustang is pretty much the same as for Tiger -- quality, XML Web services."
The Java Community Process spearheaded the nine-year effort along with
160 expert members including 18 members on JSR 176 alone. The support list
includes a Who's-Who of the Java world, including the Apache Software
Foundation, Apple Computer, BEA Systems, Borland Software Corporation, Cisco
Systems, Fujitsu, Hewlett-Packard, IBM, Macromedia, Nokia Corporation,
Oracle, SAP AG, SAS Institute, SavaJe Technologies and host company Sun
Stephen O'Grady, a senior analyst with market research firm RedMonk, said
Java-centric ISVs "There are a lot of Java developers out there, and Tiger gives Java an
opportunity to get many of them excited about the language again,
particularly at the desktop level," O'Grady told internetnews.com.
To help foster that desktop development, the new spec features support
for hardware acceleration via OpenGL for Linux and Solaris systems. Another
key focus for the new platform release is that J2SE 5.0 applications can fit
right into existing SNMP-based "Of all of the potential improvements and upgrades that Tiger involves --
including an update to the Java language -- I think performance is the area
most important to the release," O'Grady said. "Java's gotten heat for years
on its relative performance, particular for the initial instantiation of an
application, and this update is specifically designed to address that
But O'Grady also points out that J2SE by itself is certainly an
opportunity for Sun to further propagate Java into current as well as green
field markets, but even on the client side its one asset amongst many, such
as J2ME.
"Ultimately, Sun's futures in my view will likely be more influenced by
the payoff from its disruptive pricing and packaging efforts with enterprise
hardware and software," he said.

February 2009 might well go down as the month when Twitter replaced Facebook as the hottest and coolest company in Silicon Valley.
First, Twitter closed a $35m (£24m) round of venture capital investment at a valuation of about $250m – not bad for a revenue-less start-up in the depths of the worst liquidity crisis since the Great Depression. Second, research from Pew Internet and American Life Project revealed that a whopping 11 per cent of Americans have used a service such as Twitter. Third, in a survey of 200 top digital marketing mavens, Abrams Research showed Twitter trounced Facebook in the all-important question of which social media service is the most effective financial investment for businesses – Twitter getting 40 per cent and Facebook only 15 per cent of the vote.
Of course, the 29 person, two-year-old Twitter is in that pre-adolescent stage of development when it can do no wrong in the eyes of the Silicon Valley cognoscenti. The network has experienced phenomenal growth with active users growing 900 per cent in the past year. Anyone who is anyone is on Twitter these days: Stephen Fry, Barack Obama, Shaquille O'Neal and Jonathan Ross. Best of all, the advertising free Twitter hasn't had to worry about the inconvenience of revenue with the San Francisco-based company only getting around to hiring its first head of sales in the past month.
The five-year-old Facebook, on the other hand, has – to excuse the teenage metaphor – collided head-on with the pimples of adolescence. While Twitter was having a miraculous February, Facebook's month has been gruesome. It all began when the Consumerist website, in an inflammatory post entitled "We Can Do Anything We Want With Your Content Forever" noted a number of significant changes in Facebook's terms of service and suggested that the company intended to keep the information of users who quit the network. "Facebook owns you!" cried tens of thousands of paranoid members, thereby forcing Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook's 25-year-old CEO, to publicly rescind the changes and limp back to his original TOS.
The storm is really about how the company transforms the information of Facebook's current 175 million social networkers into dollars and cents. Having been valued at a ludicrous $15bn when Microsoft invested $240m in the social network in October 2007, Facebook is now under immense pressure to prove that its free service can generate significant revenue. And given the premium advertisers pay for personal information, it isn't surprising that the real fear of the change in its TOS was about Facebook selling the data of its former members to the highest corporate bidder.
Ev Williams and Biz Stone, Twitter's two young co-founders, should learn from Facebook's growing pains. In a year or two, Twitter will have inherited these uncomfortable growing pains. The micro-blogging site will have been replaced as the start-up darling of the Valley by a fresh-faced new thing. It will probably also have to quell the digital rebellion of Bolshevik users who claim "ownership" of the service. Most of all, Twitter will soon have to prove to investors that it has a viable strategy for transforming its millions upon millions of Tweets into hard cash.

Yep.the skimpy bikini/oiled up shots are certainly my favorite. and Destiny does them justice..she is gorgeous.
Bikini Winner
One of the most requested model-wear at XLGirls.com (and at SCORELAND) is the bikini or mono-kini. They should be as skimpy and as tight as possible. Destiny Rose wears a hot red extreme string bikini this time and the effect is pure eye-candy. The cornfed beauty is a bikini knockout! Destiny is an exotic dancer back home in Ohio. "We dance on the bar kinda like that place Coyote Ugly," says Destiny. "It's topless on the bar and we get naked when we do dances. Friction dances are a lot of fun. I like to squeeze my tits together and lick both my nipples at the same time. It feels good. I am sure that if I tried, I could probably stick both my nipples in my mouth at the same time and suck them and hold them there for a while." Now that's our idea of real entertainment.
What Members are saying about this update...
June 23, 2011
June 22, 2011
Every Destiny photo set is superlative, as is this one. Those glistening thighs put me over the top. I would love to see Destiny dance. I may need to plan a visit to Ohio soon.

Ntreev Announces Grand Chase Season 3
Ntreev USA Inc.
22 Apr 2010
Irvine, Calif., April 21, 2010 - Ntreev USA, a leading online game developer and publisher, announced today it will launch an all-new update, Season 3, for its online action-adventure MMO brawler, Grand Chase. Season 3 will feature numerous updates including complete
overhauls for Missions, Items and User Interface plus brand new Dungeons and Lands. This new season will be released in two acts; Act 1 launching this month and Act 2 launching in May. Player can visit http://grandchase.ntreev.net to download the game.
"Season 3 breathes new life into the game and we are elated to bring all of these completely new and exciting updates to Grand Chase," said Chris Lee, CEO at Ntreev USA. The net result of all the new features and content is a more immersive gaming experience for all of our players."
New Lands to Explore
Season 3 will launch with two new lands for Grand Chase players to explore. Alcubra, the land that was hidden beyond the Silver Land, will now be the next stop after Silver land. This new land is a large desert with a single fertile area of forests. Alcubra will look
familiar to players already acquainted with Egyptian mythology but with a distinct Grand Chase twist. The all-new dungeons located in Alcubra are the Goblin Work Site, Underpass of Lost Hope, Kungji Village, and Sands of Illusion. These new dungeons will show off an
incredible array of dungeon types ranging from barren deserts to the lush forests of Alcubra's fertile region. For players at the top end, the new war-torn land of Archimedia will now be available. The Grand Chase knights know nothing of the land where Dwarves and Elves vie for control and are mistaken for Elven Spies and immediately attacked upon arrival! The new dungeon located in Archimedia is Hammer's Reach, the outlying Dwarven base.
Item and Equipment Update
A wide range of changes have been implemented to make gear selection and upgrading easier for all players. The most exciting update to equipment and items is a stat normalization for all equipment. All items will have a set number of stat points that are based on item level which will give players the ability to adjust their equipment more carefully and compare different sets of items more accurately. Item grades will also be easy to identify using new colored item text.
In addition to stat normalization, all-new stats have been added to many pieces of equipment. Equipment will be able to grant players exciting new bonuses like life steal, HP/MP regeneration, and XP increases. These stats will allow for further customization of outfits
and give players more choice when it comes to selecting equipment for different situations.
Players will also be able to customize their item stats in two new ways. All items will have a number of points allotted to them that can be reassigned by the players. This allows players to further tweak their equipment to their specific tastes. The other way players
can customize their equipment is through the all new Monster Cards. These new Cards can be placed within sockets on the armor. Each Monster Card will be based on a monster from Grand Chase and give a specific bonus to the piece of equipment in which it is placed.
Use Interface Improvements
The user interface of Grand Chase has undergone a massive face lift making the world map more cohesive and giving players access to more information to help them get the best gameplay experience possible. Players will now be greeted with a large map showing all of the lands of Grand Chase. This revised world map gives the world of Grand Chase a feeling of grand vastness. Additionally, the all new and improved dungeon UI will now allow players to see their current progress through the dungeon along with items collected, experience gained and quest objectives. Thanks to this new UI, players will now be able to run dungeons more efficiently and maximize their experience.
All-new Missions and Reward System
Season 3 is Grand Chase's most comprehensive update. The missions have received a complete overhaul and each mission players receive while leveling their characters has been updated. Missions will now feature more engaging stories and better defined objectives. These missions will send players back to dungeons and provide a cohesive, overarching story for players to follow while rewarding players who are interested in leveling up faster and collecting quest rewards.
All new missions will have a scaling reward system. Season 3 introduces a scaling XP reward system that will give bigger XP rewards to players that complete missions at lower levels. As players level higher, the XP reward will be scaled back to encourage players to do
missions earlier. In addition to mission improvements, players will now be given visual cues in dungeons and on the world map to indicate the next dungeon they need to visit. Visual cues inside of dungeons will show players which monsters they need to kill in order to
complete their missions.
Grand Chase is an online action brawler set in a medieval fantasy world. It follows the story of a few brave young knights who join a group of nobles known as the "Grand Chase" to defeat an evil usurper to the throne, a villainess known as Kaze'aze. Grand Chase combines traditional side-scrolling dungeon crawling with intense, skill-based player vs. player (PvP) matches.

Donaji & the Magical Poncho
This is the story of a fearless girl and her encounter with the wicked cold wind god
4.29 / 5.00 3,812 ViewsMy 4th Newgrounds release!! And the longest flash I've done yet (still not THAT long) Damn that was hard work! Anyways here it is, a sequel due to popular demand! I hope this will get as good a response as the first one. Please enjoy it.
I liked it. it's much more eerie and wierd than the first. Awesome job.
Wow messed up..
Lol that was funny and strange at the same time , very very weird indeed.
This is so much more disturbing and creepy than the 1st for sure but still enjoyable.
Wow, that was really messed up...
Not quite as funny as the original, but far more disturbing. I'm really starting to like this character. Can't wait to see more!
Proves a point...
This flash definetely proves a point-that one doesn't need flashy graphics or smooth animation to make a great flash. Don't get me wrong. The graphics and style help the mood and fit with the music, but it's not the strongest part of the flash. I still gave you a 5, simply for the awesome style, splendid sound, quirky graphics, and downright insane ideas. Oh yeah, and Saladfinger's voice is absolutely incredible.

A 22-year-old girl has alleged that she was raped and assaulted by her 27-year-old boyfriend with whom she had been in a live-in relationship for the past five years, following which the accused was arrested from Katewa Nagar in Jaipur, police said on Tuesday.
In an FIR lodged with the Shyam Nagar police station on Monday, the girl alleged that her boyfriend Suman Prakash Jatav had lied to her about his marital status, hiding that he was already married.
When she came to know about it, she confronted him, following which he allegedly beat her up and threw her out of their house two days ago, police said.
Jatav was arrested last night under section 323 (voluntarily causing hurt) and 376 (rape) of Indian Penal Code, police said.
He was produced before a local court which sent him to two days police custody, they added.

Leftfield to headline Beat-Herder Festival
Dreadzone along with Acid House legend Greg Wilson,The Selecter and many more have also been added
The mighty Leftfield and their Leftism beats will be joining Beat-Herder this summer! Hold onto your hay bales! Last year, Leftfield took the Live show on the road after years in hibernation and the Ribble Valley is set to experience what has only been described as a 'mind blowing visual and aural feast'
"I am very happy to be playing at Beat Herder this year. Feels like I am coming home!" It is a great honour to be on the same bill as Simian Mobile Disco and Andrew Weatherall amongst all the other great acts. Can't Wait!"
Leftfield's Neil Barnes
Dance music's underground heroes Dreadzone are the next act to be added to this burgeoning bill, along with Acid House legend Greg Wilson, DJ du jour Doorly. Going back to the roots on the reggae tip are The Selecter featuring Pauline Black and Gaps Hendrickson and original Rude Boy Neville Staple.
Beat-Herder have also announced the fancy dress theme - Friday is Flower Power day and Saturday night is Everything begins with an E! Think Eggboxes, ET, Eskimos, Elephants.
With zero official sponsorship, no egos and not a scrap of branding in sight Beat-Herder is not about platinum selling artists on huge stages but about creative festival fun, locally sourced food and booze and the friendliest most up for it crowds this side of the Pennines! Beat-Herder legend has it that in the beginning there was the Toil Trees where the Toil Sound system brought friends together to party beneath the trees. The landowner was set to cut down the forest but he enjoyed himself so much that he couldn't bear to chop it down. And so Beat- Herder was born …
When your legs tire of dancing to this little lot why not check out the amazing extras... Being small, intimate and perfectly formed there's never far to walk but there are still plenty of stages, interactive nonsense and hidden surprises to satisfy even the most curious of Beat-Herders!
Stop of for a brew or a beer at Mikey's Tea Shack, sit down beneath the hanging baskets on one of the famous Beat-Herder vibrating benches or check out one of the many magical surprises hidden around every corner. Last years Granma's Launderette hidden deep in the trees through a 20m long tunnel was a massive hit and this year the BH crew are thinking bigger…
Also back by popular demand for 2011 is the legendary Working Men's Club. Remember 10p pints, Ford Cortinas, three-day weeks and the miner's strikes? You can party like its 1970 at Beat-Herders very own working men's club! It has all the glamour of a 70s pit village with added real ale, silliness and glittery blue eye shadow. The working men's club with play host to the annual "Beat-Herders got Talent (judged last year by Coronation Street's very own Jannis Battersby)." And again, mad old nana moon will be having a sing a long, there will be bingo, and some top class talent will also be performing!
Easily heard but not as easy to find, the Toil Trees stage this year has a new and improved crispy clear sound system can be found tucked snuggly amongst the trees, the epicenter of the festival. Get amongst it and dance to the eclectic beats that last throughout the night.
With it's intimate fun atmosphere and amazing facilities Beat-Herder strikes the perfect balance between 'up for it crowd' and family friendly vibe. With a new and improved Kids field and super cheap kid's tickets, Beat Herder's of every age are warmly welcomed!
Beat Herder - 1-3 July 2011 - Sawley, Ribble Valley Lancashire

Army Times referred to West Point as the "U.S. Army Military Academy". The correct name is United States Military Academy. Article in question.

Same as my former Wisconsin site. Mistakes/misspellings so bad that readers even bring it up to me.

mistakes like this have been happening since newspapers were printed - nothing new here....I remember one typesetter who put together a double truck ad for a mall - the key headline across the top was suppose to say "count on us" but the O got dropped. JC Penney dropped an R out of shirts years ago as well.......these people are human and mistakes can happen - this is just an industry where your mistakes are very visable -- what would be worse was the SF TV station that actually put on the screen and read racial slurs regarding the pilot names from the airplane crash in SF a couple of months ago.....

Shirt is happening much more often now that most of the copy editors are gone.

Funny , sad, but so true 8:11; and should be expected with staff cuts of nearly 75% during the last 5 years.

Hard proof that all of Gannett's cuts have resulted in shitty products.

I remember a newspaper in Illinois in the 80s that said a "shitload of snow" in a caption about a winter storm. Another newspaper, also in the 80s, (a magical time) headlined picture from a gun show "implements of death." Mistakes like this have been haunting newspapers forever. What makes them more common now is 1) all the copyeditors have been laid off (okay, I know not ALL copyeditors have been laid off, but many have been) so more mistakes never get caught and do make it into print and 2) social media makes sharing and laughing about them so much easier. It used to be just industry insiders saw our mistakes through places like the CJR's "Lower Case." Now everyone sees them on FB.
