At its World Wide Developer Conference (WWDC) in San Francisco, Apple has unveiled the latest version of its desktop operating system, Mac OSX Lion. It packs in a host of new features and a tweaked look, yet is set to cost just £20.99 and will only be available as a download from the App Store. Here, then is the full low down on what you can expect to get for your money.
New Multi-touch Gestures
With all Macbooks now shipping with multi-touch touchpads and desktop Macs having access to the Magic TrackPad, all Macs are now multi-touch ready, so Apple has bolstered these abilities. Now animations are smoother and slicker while some new gestures have also been added. The new gestures include momentum scrolling, pinching or tapping to zoom into webpages and images, and swiping left or right to turn a page or switch between fullscreen apps.
Fullscreen apps
Though it seems crazy to laud such a basic feature, easier access for developers to create fullscreen apps is an important part of OSX Lion, especially as it's integrated into other new features that make it even easier to navigate your Mac.
Mission Control
One such new feature is mission control. This combines Expose, full screen, Dashboard and Spaces to create a sort of super bird's-eye view of the apps you're running. A single gesture opens the mission control view to give you instant access to your open windows - grouped together according to app - thumbnails of fullscreen apps and widgets, and across the top, your Spaces (different desktops). With all the fancy gestures, it's supposed to be very easy to organise and navigate even the busiest desktops.
Built-in App Store
Since launching, the Mac App Store has, according to Apple, become the number one channel for buying Mac software. So, keen to leverage this, Apple has fully integrated the store into Lion. It's also adding in-app purchases, delta updates (you only download changes not full versions of updated apps) push notifications, and a built-in sandboxing mode to aid security. It may be galling to know that you're paying Apple directly simply for the privilege of downloading apps through its app store but at least it will now be even easier to do so.
To make it easy to keep track of all these apps, Launchpad provides a very iOS-like interface for keeping things organised. You can have multiple pages of apps arranged in any order you like, and put them into themed folders as well. It's nothing ground breaking but adds further to the slick and easy-to-use appeal of the App Store concept.
Taking a leaf out of mobile phone OS design, Resume automatically stores everything that you were doing in an app prior to shutting it down. So when you open it back up, everything's exactly as you left it, right down to the text you had highlighted. It works system-wide and completely automatically.
Yes, it does what it says on the tin but there's more too. As well as providing a system-wide auto-save feature, you'll be able to call up old versions of files through a very slick looking interface, easily duplicate them, or even turn off auto-save if you so desire. You can copy and paste between different versions and generally just have a ball going back and forth through (virtual) time. What's more, only the deltas are save, so you don't end up with hundreds of the same file.
Air Drop
Air drop automatically detects any nearby Macs and allows you to instnatly setup an ad-hoc peer-to-peer wireless network so that you can exchange files. Again, it's no revelation but it saves you having to grab a USB stick or having to signup to an alternative cloud-based sharing service just to swap a few files.
The default Mail app has been given a complete overhaul with it taking on a more iOs style interface. You can arrange emails into conversations, with repeated text automatically hidden and pictures and other attachments shown as they were orignially sent, making it much easier to keep track of a conversation and all the key information exchanged within it. Microsoft Exchange 2010 support is also buit in, while there's also a new search that will suggest results by person, subject or label as you type - again like iOS.
All told, there's nothing wildly revolutionary here but Apple has certainly demonstrated it is staying ahead of the curve, plus there are apparently another 240 tweaks and additions that make up the full update. So while we were enthused by what Microsoft revealed about Windows 8 a few days ago, Apple has shown it'll take more than a few live tiles for Windows to fully catch up to the slick user experience Macs offer. Moreover, with Apple charging just £20.99 for this update, Microsoft may even have to rethink its entire business model.
What are your thoughts on the updates? Excited? Non plussed? Let us know in the comments.
Also, stay tuned for more news on the latest iOS and iCloud updates.

For thousands of years, epidemics of contagious diseases were believed to be caused by the wrath of the gods, configuration of stars, or miasma. The association of specific microorganisms with disease came about as a consequence of the work of the German physician Robert Koch. He formulated a set of criteria that could be used to identify the pathogen responsible for a specific disease. These criteria came to be known as Koch's postulates.

Today was overcast but still very pleasant. I did some work this morning while Judy visited the zoo to see the pandas. I had visited them last time I was in Adelaide.This afternoon we went to Glenelg by tram. It is a pleasant trip with some beautiful stone homes visible from the tram.
There were lots of seagulls present and some were quite interested in us as we ate fish and chips, the ideal meal for beside the sea. They were very happy when i gave them my last few chips!
We had a nice amble out along the pier and watched the fishermen, none of whom were catching anything while we were watching but they seemed to be enjoying themselves.
|Monument for first landing
|Old Town Hall n now the Discovery Centre
Afterwards we visited the Bay Discovery Centre which is well worth a visit. It is in the lovely heritage building that was the Old Town Hall. Just inside the door was the Honour Board for World Wars. There were a large number of names listed for WW1 and I am not sure whether these were for men who had served or who were lost.
There are some very interesting historical displays upstairs. At the top of the stairs was a showcase containing this interesting visitors book. It contains the names of people attending the Proclamation Day celebrations on 28 December from 1898-1922. This tradition continued for more than 100 years. What is particularly interesting is that the date of arrival and ship are also listed. This series of books may the clue to finding out the arrival date of some-one's ancestor.
Lots of great displays including one on Douglas Mawson the famous explorer and Glenelg resident. He designed his home while in the Antarctic.
Originally in Glenelg the Pier was a long Pier with an Aquarium and a Tea House. The Pier was badly damaged in a major storm in the 1940's and never returned to its former glory.
An underwater archaeological expedition was carried out with a number of the finds exhibited in the museum. You know that the owners of some of these items would have been very upset when they were lost. They include gold lockets, rings and children's prizes from the popular Penny Arcade and amusement park.
Then the tram ride home to go and register for the AFFHO 2012 conference, slip back to the hotel and get changed for the welcome reception.
The welcome reception was also held at the Convention Centre. There were a number of people in historic dress. It was great to catch up with Shauna Hicks, Carole Riley, Kerry Farmer, Jill Ball handed out some Mardi Gras beads to the bloggers among us so if you see us wearing these beads come and chat as we are some of the 2500 Geneablogger people who write genealogy blogs.
I also met Daniel Horowitz from My Heritage. I have recently joined this site and I have to say am quite impressed as I had uploaded 196 of my direct line ancestors recently to My Heritage. It was an easy Gedcom upload and the Smart Matches started to occur. This is where the site does a check and suggests other entries that match your information. 256 Smart Matches were suggested of which I could immediately confirm 251, do some further checking on three and reject two on which I had not included much information. So I was quite impressed with this result.
I also had a nice chat to the team from FindMyPast and exciting things are happening there! Even better when I got back to the hotel to watch the new Australian episode of Who Do you think You Are? there was a Twitter announcement that FindMyPast UK had just released 1.3 million London Westminster parish records!
The conference presentations start from tomorrow morning at 9.00 with the official opening and the Exhibition Hall opens from 8.30am. Remember you are able to register on the day just to visit the Exhibition Hall to chat with all the exhibitors if you are not able to attend the conference.
Now it is time to get some sleep so I am fresh and alert for the many presentations I will be attending tomorrow. So goodnight all.

"These are tasty little bites. I only used 1/2 tsp cinnamon when I made them the first time and it was more then enough. The next time I made them I omitted the cinnamon and dipped half of the strawberry in melted chocolate. Delicious and they looked like I had spent hours on them."

Great entry, good luck! This is the kind of witty art I love Woot for.

I thought it was borderline. I did it in grayscale so it has some diff shades. Saw other shirts that looked like they were "one color" but had shades of that color so I figured I would post and see what happens.

I don't know that this says anything to the point you were trying to make, but I thought it might be interesting to point out.
Also: as a regular derby entrant, I really appreciate the vagueness of the rules. It makes things interesting.
Thanks for commenting!
OK gentlemen...
We're at an impasse, maybe we should compromise.
(sorry, had to say it!)
j5 wrote:some points and pointers:
1. heather gray is not a color offered by woot, but this looks like silver anyway.
2. It's a bit off topic, since it's not composed of artistic elements, just drawn out.
3. Maybe update your signature to include links to your entries. This way people can click and see/vote.
Hey, it's my buddy critic, j5!
I really value your opinion and appreciate your taking the time to give it.
To address your points:
I pulled the heather off a Woot-posted template from the artists' resources so I'm a little confused, but silver would be just fine.
[Woops, I followed that useful thread down to the bottom, and found this -- maybe we can get the staff to edit at the top so no other junior wannabes like me make this same mistake. Seems that they used heather gray in 2008, but times change.]
grisca wrote:Remember that there was a change in the available official t-shirt-colours (off the top of my head: no heather grey and orange any more, and silver and slate instead).
Okay, Silver it is! Not that it will be printed, so meh!
Your second point was that it was off topic since it was just drawn out ...I guess I don't understand the rules, [And here I thought other people weren't following them.] or I'm doing a poor job communicating my idea through the picture, or both. The illustration is supposed to show an incomplete stencil of sorts that the word "meh" would have been in, but the painters didn't give a flip so they just freehanded it.
If this is off topic, then all three ideas are, unfortunately. But despite that, I am learning from the experience and the critiques.
Finally, I would like to figure out how to get the Sig line right, but when I just put a link to the thumbnail, it folds and needs to be scrolled, which led to a staffer pm'ing me and asking me to fix it. So I just went in, combined the three thumbnails and sized them down, but they are stored together, which means I can't link up to them individually.
If you feel like critiquing my other two [and I would so appreciate that because I'm not here to win, I'm here to learn -- getting a hundred votes is my next high water mark], here are links to my other two t-shirt designs in this derby:
Re: Curiosity
Was he trying to cross the road? Was he following a chicken? I love cats, but I'm gonna vote for this anyway because after 4 or 5 times that kitty should have learned his lesson.

Re: Nostalgia
Re: Fungi
I LOVE this shirt. I've been pretty underwhelmed by most of the derbies lately but this entry is stunning.
I really hope it prints! GMV!
Re: aaaahhhhh!!
My first thought was that was an "i" falling down. It works either way.
This shirt is very clever & extremely well done. It makes me wish I weren't feeling so overdosed on Woot cat shirts & asphalt shirts because it deserves to print.
Re: Nachos
Cute idea & I love nachos, but I think this would be better on a different shirt color or a different palette. Brown & grayscale don't convey their deliciousness.
Cobalt in my cookies? :O
This shirt gives me the sudden urge to hire the Golden Company and sail for Westeros.

Before you put any more effort into this, I'd advise reviewing the rules for this derby. You're breaking them, and your entry can and may be rejected.

What you're seeing in other entries that looks like different shades are halftones.
ApeLad wrote:Just a clarification: this isn't a mask slapped on a crowd drawing. The letters are part of the original idea.
Actually, I knew you didn't use a clipping mask because I saw your pre-derby sketches. I just meant the end result in general could be achieved with a clipping mask, albeit with less skill and artistry, instead of using objects oriented in such a way to form art. (I think you know what I mean.) I wasn't targeting this entry specifically, just that this derby has various interpretations and I could see how other artists could get frustrated if they thought they had to do something a specific way, only to see that they could have used a different approach. I'm surprised to see entries made up of letters formed with letters/numbers, but if it's good enough for Woot, it's good enough for me!
Thanks, it was only a matter of time.

China Official: Western Media Misrepresents Piracy Issues in China

Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Tian Lipu
(Source: scmp.com)
He said the Western media has been distorting the piracy issue in China, and ignores the fact that the government is working on the issue
China's copyright piracy head said that the United States is quick to trash China when it comes to
piracy issues
, but fails to report the progress.
Tian Lipu, head of China's State Intellectual Property Office, said on Sunday that the Western media has been distorting the piracy issue in China, and ignores the fact that the government is working on the issue.
"Speaking honestly, there is a market. People use and buy pirated goods," said Lipu. "To a large extent, China's intellectual property rights protection image has been distorted by Western media. China's image overseas is very poor. As soon as people hear China, they think piracy or counterfeiting -- Beijing's Sanlitun, that place in Shanghai, Luohu in Shenzhen.
"We don't deny [this problem], and we are continuing to battle against it."
While the U.S. may have lost over $15 billion in 2009 to international copyright theft, where about $3.5 billion was due to software piracy in China, Lipu said that China is stepping up its efforts. He added that China pays for most for copyright protection.
China has definitely had piracy issues over the years. In 2007, Chinese police busted a
huge piracy ring
responsible for pirating and distributing up to $2 billion worth of software. In 2009, China convicted 11 people in a
software piracy case
where jail sentences lasted anywhere from 18 months to over six years.
More recently,
Microsoft hired 1,000 workers in China
to for research and development (R&D), services, marketing and sales. The tech giant mentioned that it wants to clear up piracy issues with its Windows software and reach the full potential of the market.
"Google fired a shot heard 'round the world, and now a second American company has answered the call to defend the rights of the Chinese people." -- Rep. Christopher H. Smith (R-N.J.)

|that's some funny shit with the doctors. good to see the recovery is coming along.
So I got to board 10 days in the past few weeks. I got my screws taken out yesterday. I just had it done with some skin numbing local.. It was kinda weird to feel the screws coming out of my bones and hearing it vibrate through my body into my ears...... I wanted to work that evening though and not miss out on pay or use up vacation time.
My wife and I on a day last week.
The screws on xray across my fibula and tibia
I snapped the pictured from my perspective, you can see the screwdriver going to my ankle and the first screw is coming out. the second one is the second screw coming out. I work here with these people, otherwise I could probably not do this with no sedation or snap pics.....
I posted them on facebook while doing surgery.. No privacy violations here since I was the patient and taking the pics of myself.
|good to know your back at it again.enjoy the rest of the season.
|Went up today to get my legs back. Gonna get the next couple weeks in on the mountain.
|I guess at least I get 4 weeks paid vacation....
|just when the powder was coming in... but yeah, you'll be back in no time.
|Bummer as your first season. At least you have already had a fun season and hopefully you will be able to bounce back stronger. Here's to a speedy recovery.

It caught me a little off guard but I thought I was ok so I spun around for a little fun 180..... I landed on my back leg, which is normally my from leg, on a very steep angle. My leg compressed like I was doing a gnarly tail butter and I heard a few pops and cracks.
I must say that i have always had a high pain threshhold so it may hurt more, i just dont feel much pain. I sat there for a few minutes strapped in and it didn't feel broken, just sprained. I tried to ride down but that hurt..... I unstrapped and walked about 1/4 mile but I couldnt put my weight on that leg anymore without lots of pain. I must have had 25 skiers and 5 boarders pass me by without a word.... My son saw me in the distance from the lift so he came to see what was up, I asked him to ride down for ski patrol, he did, they responded quickly. They got the call as he got on the lift, the patrol was there before he got off the lift.
I got the toboggan ride down, smoother than I though it would be, and had them release me. I told my son to keep riding and I drove home thinking it was a bad sprain still. The patrollers knew me and let me go...... After driving home I took my boot off and examined myself. I could feel my bones grinding in my hand and serious instability in my ankle.
I called one of the surgeons I work with and he saw me immediately in his office. Xrays confirmed a broken fibula and torment ligaments in the ankle due to the spread and poor spacing where the tibia and fibula meet at the ankle. He recommended surgery to fixate the ankle and avoid long term instability because it would heel but it would heel poorly without the surgery. The fibula is a self heeling bone but both injuries are non weight bearing injuries to heel. I told him I would just have the surgery that day and get it over with.
I had our anesthesia give me a block and just sedate me rather than general anesthesia. Survey was awesome, couple screws later and it's. Fixed...
Vail ski patrol was awesome and so was my crew at the hospital along with the surgeon.... Just one of those risks you have to expect if you choose to do these kinda sports... Or anything really.... At least I don't have to say I broke it falling off a curb.....
Shit happens, right? Seems like we can have some epic cartwheeling shit eatings and be just fine, but the most mundane little things can cause the most significant injuries.
Get well soon!

First of all, never feather filler up onto non-factory paint unless you KNOW it was all catalyzed and well cured. Second, never feather filler up over your paint featheredge unless it has been nicely feathered back with at least 150 grit, preferably 220. Third, make sure the featheredges are in 320 grit before priming. Fourth, let that primer flash off! Don't stand there and look at it, go do something else between coats, and set a timer if you tend to lose track of time. Fifth, don't apply thick coats. Just go one coat extra if needed. Now, I'm sure a guy could follow all these steps and still get shrinkage, but that would be rare, IMHO.
If the product can safely be recoated in 5 minutes by the manufacturers own testing, then "Boasting" it can do that isn't an issue to me.
I think what you are thinking is that they would "push" the boast to sell product by saying it is faster than it really is. Now, that would be wrong.
Certainly, that happens from time to time. we all over sold ourselves on our first date.
But, really, really, the manufacturer with millions of dollars in products, with hundreds of millions of dollars on the line in warrantees isn't going to push that envelope. They want things to WORK, to NEVER be a problem, that is the goal.
An example is in my gun set up "Basics":
As an example of the use of a 1.3 tip I did a test once that proved the point well. I shot two panels of metal with a med solids urethane primer. One was shot with a 1.3 super high atomizing top of the line topcoat gun. The other was shot with a 1.5 (or a 1.7 I cant remember) hoser primer gun. Three coats were applied and after a full cure (the one shot with the larger gun took MUCH longer to flash and cure by the way) the film thickness was measured. The one shot with the 1.3 tip was 2 tenths of a MIL thicker! The larger gun laid out the marble sized droplets full of solvent and when the solvent flashed the film shrank.
Now, the 1.3 tip may be too small for some products so check the tech sheet. The facts of the findings won't change.
That makes perfect sense to me.
Like Barry pointed out in another thread, that works good for buffing clear
too, after you sand it allow it to sit a few hours and it'll also buff better.
anytime you sand a surface you open it up to dry more.
Steering things back on course, if I may
I'd totally agree with the trapped solvents explanations, for any of the reasons given.
To illustrate, here's a little story:
We tend to prime all our repairs together, at the end of the day, to save wastage. When I was doing it, we hardly ever suffered shrinkage problems. Now the boss has begun to let our young lad do the priming, we are having regular problems (same product used).
He thinks that if he bombs 3 thick coats of 2k primer on the big repairs, with minimal flash times, he can go home early (and it'll 'hide' his poor filler work). The problem starts the day after. Upon hitting the primer with a DA, you can smell the solvents bursting out! I've even had it so bad, that the primer has popped right through the base and clear during baking!
Besides re-educating him, which is difficult as he is the boss's son, I've found one way around it is to block or DA the primer down early in the day, and leave it to sit as long as possible before final sanding. This seems to give the solvents time to escape, after 'breaking the surface', and shrinkage problems have been reduced.
Clearly, as stated above, the better way would be to take more time applying the primer, and allow plenty of flash time between coats, but maybe my method of 'breaking the surface' could help a little also.
|Well obviously we have a different definition of boast.
Well, I don't know where the boasting would be?
One example 1 hour buff.
No, actually 30 minutes at 75 degrees.
Always a safety net!
Or what about the 45 minute handling?
How about at 70 Degrees handle and put in rain in 30 minutes and will be water spot free.
Always a safety net!
So if you don't know why bring it up?
Because you don't have a clue.
Respond to someone else as I'm done here.
Well with that said.. i figured out the problem.. prolly putting on too many coats for this product to keep up.
The spi turbo 2k is great i have a gallon that ive been using on the porsche im restoring.. i plan on switching to that completly but i wanna use up the rest of this nason.. ill just stick to 2 or 3 coats and i wont bomb them on as sometimes happens. thanks guys
Read this advertisement, if this is not boasting I stand corrected.
Thank you for viewing our website. Please click on any of our products and view their respective tech sheets. By doing so you will find that our 2K primers are ready to sand in 30 minutes at 70 degrees and do not require a sealer.
You will see that our clears can be buffed in as little as 1 hour, handled in 45 minutes, and buff good as much as 30 days after application. Our epoxy primers spray wet and slick, and all of our colors, including white, have outstanding adhesion to aluminum.
Our spray-in truck bed liner is tintable with such strength that we make counter mats out of them for our jobber stores! Let us prove to you that we believe in quality over quantity, and that we stand behind all of our products.
No, but I'll tell you this, if they would have been in a more competitive area like Contra Costa County just west of the SF bay area they would have! I am not kidding, in that area DuPont and PPG thru so much money at shops it was sickening. A little shop like this with only $3000 or so in monthly purchases would be fought over and given $20,000 or something. It was sick.
Up where this Ford dealer was at in Lake county, DuPont and PPG didn't even send a rep up there. I got a lot of business up because I was willing to go. Those shops didn't even know about the incentive checks the big boys were tossing around.
You are right! But I bet you did not see Dupont or PPG or yourself go into those places and try to buy the business with two free paint booths and a million dollar check up front for a 3 year contract to get their business either.
However Barry, there are "Chevy dealers" with some pretty funky set ups.
I serviced a Ford dealer in a small town with a home made booth!
No, No and No.
A company is not going to boast their products!
The risk of this is to great, as a matter of fact its usually the other way around.
When was the last time you saw a dealership build a fender out of filler and spray 6 coats of 2K on it to start? Most of their work is two coats of primer as they are panel re-placers.
If a major writes a tech sheet for primer, its written for a Chevy dealer that has good painting conditions and the shop will not be under 70 degrees in the winter time and is going to be as close to lab conditions as your going to get.
They don't write tech sheets for spraying at home as number one we have Chevy and Ford dealers around here that spend $60,000 and up a month on paint materials, so that is their big business.
Its up to you to adjust for colder or hotter weather and size of car your doing. This is not furniture painting.
These are some good points and shows that every rule has exceptions.
To say always follow the mfg recommendations has exceptions here too.
Waiting longer is better, true they give min times usually but they like
to boast their product with fast time advertisements to lure bodyshops
into buying their pruduct. There's a lot of things you can get away with
in the "perfect world environment" as they give directions to but for most
people like me that screw things up all the time it's better to error on the
side of safety. That's why I advise letting primer set 3 days before sanding
and clear to set more than 24 hrs. There's not always time to do that
and all products are different,but waiting longer helps.
|Another thing that can cause shrinkage problems is epoxy primer if applied too heavy without enough cure time especially if more than one coat is applied. Epoxy is a slow drying primer. If you do your work and apply epoxy then your urethane surfacer while the epoxy is too wet the faster curing urethane primer will seal and slow the cure rate of your epoxy. Just another example of bombing products on and the problems that can happen. And a reason why most collision shops won't use epoxy even though the durability is so much better than any etch or DTM urethane. IMO any restoration or show car quality jobs should be allowed more cure time than regular production/collision work-how long depends on what products are used, temperatures, application.... Give longer flash times between coats, make sure you keep the shop warm, don't apply more coats than suggested and the right thickness. A heat lamp is also a good investment if you need to speed things up-just be sure to give the primer time to purge the solvents before you apply the heat. I have absolutely no shrinkage problems.

Water aerobics is an aquatic workout that provides excellent health benefits for any woman in the 40+ age range. Not only does this type of workout improve muscle tone, it's also considered a physical therapy for such conditions as arthritis, lower back pain and degenerative diseases such as osteoporosis. Usually, working out 30 minutes a day, 4 times a week, is all that is needed to gain optimum benefits.
Because a water workout is much easier on the body, you'll feel better and more relaxed too. Therefore, you'll want to select comfortable swimwear and aquatic shoes for your workout. Athletic swimwear is available in a variety of designs. Choose from styles like long torso athletic swimwear or cross back swimwear sized to fit. For durability, pick a polyester swimsuit or select chlorine resistant swimwear so your swimsuits will be able to withstand a number of workouts and resist fading too. Find the right size and you can work out without worrying about losing the support you require from a swimsuit made for this type of activity.
If you want a low-impact workout that furnishes the same advantages as exercises designed for land lubbers with a lower risk of injury, then water aerobics were made for you. You can do stretches, jumping jacks, water marches, even cross country ski moves if you so wish. So, take the plunge today— the water's just fine… for exercising!next article >>

text: I'll start with a couple of the insightful comments from the Lakers commentators - they must really watch some tape on the Pistons: "The emergence of Drummond has meant Monroe can move over to his more natural position" "Stuckey is a very versatile guard" "Stuckey is amazing from mid-range" This was a good opportunity to split the road trip and go home at 4-5 but instead it was a bad loss, to a bad Lakers team. Just seemed like most of the team was playing half at it the whole time, and didn't even whimper as the Lakers started the run at the end of the third. The team still seems all at sea. There doesn't appear to be any defensive or offensive identity and even less chemistry. Pre season (no matter how our guards were affected) and 9 games should be enough time to implement an identity on at least one end of the floor. I have to join the bench Singler crowd now too. He is just not giving us anything. At the start of his rookie season, he was knocking down 3s all over the place and I had high hopes at least for this aspect of his game, but he can't even hit wide open ones now. His limitations should be clear at this point and Datome needs to be given an extended run at SF to see if he is what we hope. If Datome works out, we have the basis of a good 8 man rotation, where players are playing their strong positions, with players around them that compliment, for the majority of their minutes and only needs spot minutes are needed from the rest Drummond/Monroe Monroe/Smith Smith/Datome KCP/Stuckey Jennings/Billups This is where the talent is Mo. Read it, play it.

These are high altitude races, with lots of climbing, in the scenic foothills of the Eastern Sierra Nevada. The course is mainly run on 4 wheel drive dirt roads, with a couple of sections of single-track trail. There are very few trees, thus the race is exposed, dry and high! Much of the 100k and 50-mile courses are above 7000' in altitude. These races are the perfect training opportunity for upcoming mountain trail 100 mile events.
The weather can range from cold to hot, dry to snowing, breezy to very windy. We have experienced all weather types, but usually we can expect fine, sunny weather, with afternoon breezes. Temperatures usually range from mid 40's at the start to 90's in the late afternoon, and then cooling in the evening.
Our aid stations are at 2 - 5 mile intervals, and are famous for variety of food and drinks available. We have small first aid kits at each, with foot care and pain relief medications. There are usually nurses and doctors on the course, with a Search and Rescue unit available as well. Runners are tracked by our local Ham Radio club, with radio contact at the finish line.
At the finish line, we have a wonderful post-race meal, with the local Salvation Army field kitchen providing hot snacks, cold drinks and an assortment of "munchies".

|Yes, I wish there was a better answer to this. If your girl isn't spayed, I probably would not spay until she grows out of this if at all possible.
my female had a bit of the same problem and it was pretty bad at times, so I followed the advice to eliminate incidents by sticking to simple rules:
1. Don't give them the opportunity by ignoring dog after you enter the house
2. Once settled lower yourself down to dog level if you want to great to eliminate submissive position
3. Do not get excited at the sign of the dog.
She is now 14 months and we almost never get this behaviour from her, so it must work or perhaps she just grew out of it.
So for you, there is hope, I recommend reading on how to deal with this behaviour and it should go away.
Well your girl karma sounds just like mine! Lol.
I have indeed taken her to a vet and confirmed a UTI is not the problem. You have confirmed what I have read for the most part...prepare for her to pee by being outside and wait for her to grow out of it. Sounds like any sort of correction will only make the issue worse.
Thanks for the reply.

Different dog, different problem. Correcting her will probably stress her out and make it much worse.
What I would suggest is first take her to the vet and make sure she does not have a Urinary Tract Infection. Then, get in the habbit of taking her out to potty more frequently, especially if you are expecting visitors. One thing you might do, is when your visitors are coming, put her leash on, and wait outside. Let her potty, when she meets them she may do a little more submissive or excited urination, but at least it will be outside.
And wait.
Karma is a pee-er. She is everything beautiful, sweet, wonderful with the kids, gentle, fun. But when she was six months old, she would still pee when she sees me. Ugh! Just clean it up.
If she was in the main part of the house and I wanted her back in the pen with the doggy door, if I would catch her and try to put her down there, there would be pee. If I went to the fridge and got some cheese then I could throw the cheese into the puppy pen, and she would follow it in there -- no pee. Dog outwitted.
But still, when I would come up to the babygate, she would jump up for pets, while pee was coming out. When was this going to stop???
Well she is almost 14 months old now. She doesn't pee anymore when I greet her. Yay!!! When I have her in the main part of the house, I go to the fridge for a piece of cheese, and she runs to her baby gate and pounds on it to get in there so she can sit down and get her part.
I hope you have success with yours. I cannot tell you the day or the hour that the pee went away, but it did.
Submissive urination with 6 month old female...
I have a 6 month old female that has a SERIOUS submissive urination problem. It is really starting to stress me out.
Sasha will pee literally EVERY single time a person greets her. Even if I have not left the house, but leave the room or am not around her for an hour, she will pee next time I see her. This happens up to 10 times a day.
I do not over excite her. I try and ignore her. But even a simple touch or anything said to her and she will go into a squat and pee. She is not a timid dog by any means either. When people come to the house, sometimes unexpected, she will empty her entire bladder onto the floor and all over their shoes.
This is really starting to worry me that she thinks it is OK and maybe even the right thing to do considering she actually goes into squat position to pee.
Is this the point where it start to correct her for it considering ignoring her has only seemed to worsen the issue? My 11 month old male never has this issue once so this is new to me. Thank you for any help!!

Welcome to Golden Goals - a FREE video series on USA.Arsenal.com which showcases some of the finest goals in Arsenal's history.
Each of our weekly clips will feature footage of a classic goal plus expert analysis from former Gunner Stewart Robson and Arsenal.com editor Richard Clarke.
Our series continues with Andrey Arshavin's spectacular first goal in an Arsenal shirt.
Read on for the story of his goal and click the PLAY button above to watch our FREE video clip.
Arshavin v Blackburn (H) 03-14-2009
Few players made a bigger splash upon their arrival at the Club as Andrey Arshavin. But while his most notable game that season was, of course, his four-goal performance at Anfield, the Russian playmaker's first strike in an Arsenal shirt stands out on its own merits.
At home against Blackburn, Arsenal held a one-goal lead midway through the second half when Denilson collected the ball on the halfway line. He swapped passes with Arshavin and Alex Song, and then raced forward through traffic. The Brazilian threaded a pass through the Blackburn defense and into Arshavin's path on the left.
The diminutive Russian met the ball near the corner flag. At that point, the play didn't look like much, but Arshavin dropped a shoulder and slipped between Danny Simpson and the byline. He looked down and from the tightest of angles, lifted the ball over Paul Robinson and into the top corner of the net.
The Emirates – and Highbury before that – have seen some truly spectacular goals over the years but nothing quite like that.

The competition is admittedly pretty thin, but who else even comes to mind as anywhere close to this good and highly touted. I remember John Roper was a big prospect coming up in the early to mid-nineties, but that's about it.
Ryan Wagner?
CJ Nitkowski?
Pat Pacillo?
Chris Gruler?
Ty Howington?
Ricardo Aramboles?
I guess the answer to my question is, absolutely!
I guess the next question is, Is Homer Bailey a top 10 prospect in baseball?
Not to base too much off of one outing, but given his performance last night, I don't see how you could disagree with someone making that argument. He's young (20 yrs old), he has multiple plus pitches, he has good size and has achieved strong success at every professional level thus far, and his fastball hits 98 after 90+ pitches in a game, what else could you want from a guy?

Extremely loud noise coming from rear of truck, escpecially when starting or stopping. I just replaced u-joints last year and they're still good. the only thing I can think of is that my rear axle pinion bearing is worn out. I noticed my pinion seal is leaking so maybe it got some dirt in there.
Any ideas?

Hello all!
I am very new to duck hunting. I recently started goose hunting this year and since I have tomorrow off I want to go after some ducks. I have mallards and woodies mostly. I have a 12 ft flat bottom I am planning on taking out with a doz mallard decoys. My plan is to get into some cover or setup on an island with decoys in the shallows. What spot would you hunt? A) closest spot and at this time of year the water is shallow but offers an out of the wind "bay". B) again out of the wind as the wind is coming from the south tomorrow, a little more open and seems like more cover off of the main river. or C) a point off the main river some decoys in the shallows with some out in the deep. The wind will becoming from the south (bottom of page). I have no clue where to setup.

COLLEGE PARK, Md.
-- Missing its best player, Duke didn't skip a beat in a surprisingly easy victory over a ranked conference foe.
Elizabeth Williams
scored 16 points and the No. 5 Blue Devils shook off the absence of injured point guard
Chelsea Gray
to beat No. 8 Maryland 75-59 on Sunday, clinching its fourth straight Atlantic Coast Conference regular-season title.
"It certainly is an honor to be the regular season champion," said Duke coach
Joanne P. McCallie
. "I think that's the hardest one to win because it says a team has gone through a season -- again, with injury or other things happening -- and really been consistent. I think that's really a special thing for our team."
Alexis Jones
Haley Peters
Tricia Liston
each added 15 points for the Blue Devils (26-1, 16-0), who won their 10th straight game and completed a season sweep against the Terrapins (22-5, 13-3).
Duke improved to 6-1 against ranked opponents and more than made up for the absence of Gray.
The Blue Devils won their second straight game without Gray, the All-American who sustained a season-ending dislocated right kneecap Feb. 17 against Wake Forest. The win gave the Blue devils a 40-39 advantage in the all-time series.
"This team has really grown tough and resilient," said McCallie.
In the middle of Sunday's victory was Jones, a freshman called upon to fill in for Gray whose point total represented a career high.
"I wouldn't say (it was) a coming-out party," Jones said. "I've been really humbled and just learning from the juniors. ... Just take the role of listening to them and also feeding off my energy."
McCallie said Jones "went to another level" against the Terrapins, scoring 13 second-half points.
"To have a freshman point guard come into this environment ... and do what she did is almost unheard of, really," the coach said.
Tianna Hawkins had 16 points and nine rebounds for Maryland, which had won three consecutive games since a 71-56 loss at Duke on Feb. 11. Alyssa Thomas added 14 points.
The Terrapins, who shot 34.8 percent from 3-point range entering the game, were 3 for 18 from beyond the arc.
Four Blue Devils scored during a 9-0 run midway through the first half, when Maryland went cold from the floor, failing to score in more than 6 1/2 minutes.
"We can't have the lapses that we had this game," Hawkins said, adding that the Terrapins weren't physical enough during that stretch. "We have to give maximum effort."
Liston had 10 first-half points and Duke led 37-25 at halftime.
What began as an up-tempo defensive struggle turned quickly after a baseline jumper by Hawkins put Maryland up 11-10 with 15:26 remaining in the first half.
Richa Jackson
's basket started the Blue Devils on a 9-0 burst, as the Terps missed their next six shots from the floor and committed three turnovers before Thomas' jumper halted the run.
Peters nailed a 3-pointer, Williams dropped in a running right-side bank shot and
Allison Vernerey
followed up her own miss to conclude the decisive burst for a 19-11 Duke lead.
Maryland finished the opening 20 minutes 12 of 31 (38.7 percent) from the field, including 0 for 9 from beyond the arc, and trailed by as many as 14 points.
"They made it really difficult for us to get easy looks," Thomas said.
Hawkins scored eight of the Terrapins' first 10 points in the second half, with the teams swapping scores early on. Maryland twice got within eight points in the second half, but could not rally.

Steve Bould has got the Arsenal squad excited about their defensive work in training, according to Kieran Gibbs.
The former Arsenal centre back took over as Arsène Wenger's assistant manager this summer following the retirement of the long-serving Pat Rice.
Bould has made an immediate impression on his new charges, especially Gibbs, who he worked with in his previous role as manager of the under-18s.
"Steve has obviously brought a defensive emphasis to the team, because he was a defender too, and he's bringing all his experience and knowledge of the game to us," Gibbs told the Official Matchday Programme.
"He's doing a really good job. He's not completely new to us, though - I had him as my manager for two years when I was in the youth team, and a few of the other players have worked under him before too. We're all used to seeing him around the training ground.
"He makes you want to play for him and everyone is really excited with the work we are doing in training, especially us defenders."
Arsenal conceded 49 goals in the Premier League last season, and Gibbs acknowledges that must be reduced if they are to compete for the title.
"We conceded a few too many goals last year, so we obviously want to stop that," he said. "I think most of the goals we conceded last year came from counter-attacking, so we'll need to improve on that.
"That's the sort of thing we have been working on, and everyone knows what we want to do in the team now, and how we can rectify the problems.
"We are looking at all areas to improve on really. So that could mean collective defending for example, but there are lots of elements we feel we need to work on.
"We have been analysing and discussing that since the start of pre-season, and practising in training. The new players in particular have been learning quickly about how we want to play this season."

Hello DrewReplyDelete
I had heard that Mr. Hughes had passed away. I enjoyed many of this books and was fortunate to have him inscribe some of my copies. I really appreciated that his focus was on the western theater of the war and as you mentioned it was very diverse.

I am really sorry to hear this. Nat was very helpful when I was researching George Rains and the Augusta Power Works in the early 1990s, and opened his home to me in Chattanooga. His wife Buckey was a wonderful hostess and they were a pair from the past--charming beyond delight. He did a lot of good work, but my favorite remains his biography on Hardee. God's speed, Nat.ReplyDelete

Just read about this. He was one of the greats. I have almost all of his books that he wrote or edited that I can get my hands on.ReplyDelete
To me some of his classics were his books on the Washington Artillery in the Army of Tennessee, 'Jefferson Davis in Blue', his book on the Battle of Belmont, and the wonderful book he edited by Philip Stephenson of the Washington Artillery. His book on Hardee was a classic too and his version of 'Liddell's Record' really helped put that irascible man in a interesting light.
What a great historian.

Most applications these days are at least somewhat network aware, but how do you protect those applications against common network security threats? Many developers are turning to OpenSSL, an open source version of SSL/TLS, which is the most widely used protocol for secure network communications.The OpenSSL library is seeing widespread adoption for web sites that require cryptographic functions to protect a broad range of sensitive information, such as credit card numbers and other financial transactions. The library is the only free, full-featured SSL implementation for C and C++, and it can be used programmatically or from the command line to secure most TCP-based network protocols.Network Security with OpenSSL enables developers to use this protocol much more effectively. Traditionally, getting something simple done in OpenSSL could easily take weeks. This concise book gives you the guidance you need to avoid pitfalls, while allowing you to take advantage of the library?s advanced features. And, instead of bogging you down in the technical details of how SSL works under the hood, this book provides only the information that is necessary to use OpenSSL safely and effectively. In step-by-step fashion, the book details the challenges in securing network communications, and shows you how to use OpenSSL tools to best meet those challenges.As a system or network administrator, you will benefit from the thorough treatment of the OpenSSL command-line interface, as well as from step-by-step directions for obtaining certificates and setting up your own certification authority. As a developer, you will further benefit from the in-depth discussions and examples of how to use OpenSSL in your own programs. Although OpenSSL is written in C, information on how to use OpenSSL with Perl, Python and PHP is also included.OpenSSL may well answer your need to protect sensitive data. If that?s the case, Network Security with OpenSSL is the only guide available on the subject.

Our look is the result of reader comments, our own experimentation, and feedback from distribution channels. Distinctive covers complement our distinctive approach to technical topics, breathing personality and life into potentially dry subjects. The animals on the cover of Network Security with OpenSSL are seals and sea lions. Seals and sea lions are related; both are marine mammals belonging to the order Pinnipedia. Sea lions, alongwith fur seals, are members of the eared seal family. Eared seals, as their name implies, have external ears on either side of the head. These ears are covered by small flaps. All other seals, or true seals, lack external ears, having only small, wrinkled openings where their ears would otherwise be. Another principle difference between eared seals and true seals is the functionality of their rear flippers. Eared seals can turn their rear flippers forward to move about on land. True seals cannot, and can move on land only by rolling, sliding, or wriggling from place to place. Despite the awkwardness of both seals and sea lions on land, both swim very gracefully using undulating motions of their front flippers. Fish and squid are the main staples of the seal and sea lion diet. These mammals can dive to great depths-- up to 2,000 feet in some species-- in search of food.Seals and sea lions have long been hunted for their blubber and their fur. There are eighteen living species of seal and four major species of sea lion in existence. Some species are endangered or threatened. All are currently protected.

Comments about oreilly Network Security with OpenSSL:
Really great help for anyone who cannot figure out OpenSSL API by reading online documentation alone. It helps to grasp the big picture and gives lots of examples of how to properly use the library.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Network Security with OpenSSL Review
By Terry Horsnell
from Undisclosed
I couldnt cope with SSL without this book, but I am knee-deep inacronyms. A glossary would be a great help (it would save me compiling my own).
By Eric Kampman
This book has been tremendously helpful in wading through the enormity of OpenSSL. However, it cannot be stressed enough that chapter 5 is useless without downloading the examples from the www.oreilly.com site. In particular, the commands in the sidebar on pages 124-125 contain references to a .cnf file that is not available (anywhere, as far as I can tell). I suspect this is why there is a dramatic difference in opinions as to the usability of the examples -- one reviewer was trying to do this by hand; the other simply downloaded, tweaked, built and ran. I personally like to type the code in by hand, so I found this problem, and the lack of helpful information in the errata pages, very annoying.This serious flaw mars an otherwise great book.
By Antonio Rodriguez of the Columbia Java Users Group
OpenSSL is a terrific programming resource, but the online documentation on itis hard to understand and index. This book brings most of it all together, andprovides enough examples to answer most of your questions.One thing that it lacks is tie-ins with Java; most of its examples are in Perl and Python. I'm currently trying to see if certain ideas can be implemented in Java.A great book, and great read!
By Martin Cooper
Overall an excellent book. Before reading this book, I had played a little with OpenSSL, but found it very difficult to piece together the information needed to make use of the library. This book covered all of my problems, and gave me a good basic foundation in using the library. The only comment I can make is that the README file with the enclosed examples is a little unclear about how to compile the code, so ignore the chapter named files, and look in the ssl directory.
(1 of 2 customers found this review helpful)
By Kevin J. Schmidt
This book is for anyone who wants to do real OpenSSL development. The authors have taken all the pain and headache out of trying to learn OpenSSL. The examples in this book are clear and easy to follow. Topics like PKI, certificate generation and management, and certificate authorities (CAs) are covered with the right amount of theory and practice.Unlike one reviewer who had problems compiling the source code examples, I had no problem building and running all the examples on Linux. The only complaint I have is that each example is broken out into a seperate file, which can make it a little tough to piece back together, but even a novice C developer should have no problems.
(6 of 8 customers found this review helpful)
By Peter Grossman
Examples are virtually unrunnable.Specifically, there are no compile, link or platform instructions.In addition, the examples are broken up into modules (Some without required #include's) and the required combination of source code to create a buildable app is left to the reader as an exercise.I cannot imagine a platform upon which these examples could run.

a place for zinesters - writers and readers
A collection of short stories written by my dear friend David Dolphin and illustrated by the lovely Douglas Eberhardt way back in the year 2009. The stories are written from the perspective of Drivvy Drykins, an alien, in a dialect all his own, detailing his escape from jail. The cover of the zine is screen printed and the zine is hand bound using string.

Good afternoon all,
I have 1 week to prepare for a Business English interview and the interviewers have set me the task of preparing one lesson at B2 level which should last 20-30 mins.
I am a bit rusty and really need some advice:
-where is the best place to get B2 materials?
-what should my lesson plan look like?
-what other questions should I prepare to answer?
Any help and advice would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

Help the Salvos in Sydney with Christmas lunch after their corporate sponsor pulled out
December 24, 2012 , 11:15 AM by Simon Leo Brown
The Salvation Army says a corporate sponsor pulled out of their Sydney Christmas Lunch this morning, by text message. The lunch is expected to feed 1200 homeless and underprivileged people.
Now they're calling for volunteers to help this Christmas Eve to fill the gap left by the absent sponsor.
There is a lot to do to set up such a large Christmas lunch.
"The list is just endless," says Salvation Army event co-ordinator Susie Mottersched.
She says even if people can help for just a couple of hours it would mean a great deal.
To help the Salvos set up decorations and infrastructure for the lunch:
Bay 14,Technology Park, 2 Locomotive St, Eveleigh. next to Redfern Station. Free parking is available

Loved the article on the Bandit posters as I have one of the US originals hanging in my office. The one I found most odd, was the French version that depicts a pistol in Burt's hand. First no support in the war, now making our greatest American icon out to be a "gun toting villain". All this from the friendly peeps that brought us Peugeot, Citroen and Renault. Those vehicles alone should've been considered a terrorist threat. I'm sure if we research further, there's also a French drawing of the Fonz smoking a blunt and beating the hell out of Mrs. C or Joanie somewhere. The pistol incident has to be the last straw. Time to boycott and have some Freedom Fries America! Again, great article...
I agree Bryan, that was an interesting read. It is sad to see American pop culture turned inside out. For one thing it gives younger people a false impression of how those more innocent times really were. Elvis Presley has become a complete ugly cartoon of his last days, and little is remembered of his original image and humbleness. And yeah, the thing with Fonz totally distorts what his character really was about. Mrs. C was his biggest fan - and the only one who could get away with calling him Arthur!
Did Fonzy end up with magical powers by the end if the series? As for the poster article, not bad, a bit boring. Should gave gotten into more movie facts about the cars. Any modified, any left over?

Direct from Hal Needham, the director of the movie..."Needham says the production got a total of five Trans Ams from Pontiac, but others involved with the production recall the number of Trans Ams at three (in fact, on the "Special Edition" Smokey and the Bandit DVD, Needham himself recalls it as three) and some sources peg the number at seven. But what's undisputed is that all the Trans Ams were destroyed over the course of the production."

Vera stops Dzinziruk in tenth round
By Bob Caico at ringside
Photos: Boxing Bob Newman
Middleweight upset artist Brian Vera (22-6, 13 KOs) has done it again, scoring a tenth round TKO over former WBO jr middleweight champion Serhiy Dzinziruk (37-2-1, 24 KOs) on Friday night at the Turning Stone Resort & Casino in Verona, New York. Dzinziruk, coming off a September draw to Jonathan Gonzalez, was dropped twice and battered in round one by the hard charging Vera, who was a participant in the third season of The Contender. Vera continued being the stalker and landed his right hand at will for the next two rounds. In the fourth round Dzinziruk began to use his jab and movement that was starting to frustrate Vera and the fight was more competitive after that . In the eighth round it looked like Vera would stop the Ukraine when he had him trapped in the corner and the referee was ready to jump in. Dzinziruk to his credit countered and weathered the storm.
"He touched me with a body shot and slowed me up a little bit," explained the Texan. Vera battered the ex-champ in the corner again in round ten and Dzinziruk seemed to drop to stop the onslaught more than being badly hurt. As he was taking the mandatory count you good almost see the resignation in his face and when referee Benji Estevez asked him if he wanted to continue he gave a little shake of his head that he couldn't. Time was 1:50 with all three judges having Vera ahead by 88-81 scores.
Vera has also defeated Andy Lee and Sergio Mora (twice) and now can be in line for a world title shot. "I'll fight anybody," said Vera. "I'll fight Gennady Golovkin (WBO and IBO middleweight champion). I'll love to have that fight."
Jr. welterweight Jose Hernandez (14-6-1, 6 KOs) of Fort Worth, Texas upset previously unbeaten Canadian Tony Luis (15-1, 7 KOs) with an eighth round TKO. Hernandez dropped Luis in round eight and finished him with his follow-up barrage. Time was 2:47. You could count on one hand the jabs thrown by either fighter as they stood toe-to-toe throwing power punches. Both fighters took turns shaking up the other but the consistent counter left hooks by Hernandez was doing the most damage. Hernandez took the fight on one week notice without any hesitation, "When they made the call and it was on TV we took it, the opportunity was there," said trainer Richard Best. Fighting inside and not using his jab was the plan from the beginning for Hernandez, "My plan was to come in here and destroy the guy, get him going backwards, I had to take him out because if it went ten rounds they would have stole it from me," said Hernandez. The defeat left Luis stunned as he had recently signed with Greg Cohen Promotions and was making his American debut. "He was a tough tough fighter, he took a good shot and he countered everything whether he got jarred or not," said Luis. The scores were split separated by one point on each scorecard showing how competitive the bout was.
Antoine Douglass of Burke, Virginia won a shutout four-round decision from game Emmanual Medina of Quincy, Mass. Douglass raised his record to 4-0 in a young promising career while Medina drops to 2-3-1.
Undefeated Jackson Junior Dos Santos of San Paulo, Brazil scored a first round TKO over Dante Craig of Cincinnati. Dos Santos controlled the action from the onset finally dropping Craig with a left hook to his soft midsection. As soon as the referee called for them to box, Dos Santos landed a right overhand bomb dropping Craig again. Referee Pakozdi waived the bout off without a count at 2:41. The Brazilian who is rated #11 by the WBO improves to 14-0 with his 12th stoppage as Craig slides to 20-15-1.
Jose Saenz of Kansas City, Missouri eked out a 4-round split decision over Jamell Tyson of Rochester, NY. Scores were 38-37 for Tyson and 38-37 twice for Saenz. The rock and sock em bout turned in the third round as a border line low blow had Tyson complaining which allowed Saenz to jump in and land a combination that floored Tyson. That would prove to be the difference in the scoring as Saenez stays unbeaten at 4-0 while Tyson slips to 3-9-1.
Light heavyweight Ryon McKenzie who now makes his home in Syracuse, NY felt the love from the loud hometown fans as he forced journeyman Rayshawn Myers (4-16-1) of Cleveland to retire on his stool at the end of round two. McKenzie came out aggressively in round two dropping Myers with a left hook. The Bahamas native stalked his prey for the rest of the round dropping him a second time with a right hand. McKenzie had Myers reeling as the bell sounded to end the second round. His corner seen enough and signaled the referee to stop the fight. McKenzie registered his 11th stoppage to go with his 12th win in as many fights.

In the two identically formed sentences below, the word 'which' produces ambiguous interpretations.
"I stayed in a hotel, which was really nice."
I would say that 'which' refers to the hotel being nice, not the stay.
"I failed the exam, which was really surprising."
Here, 'which' refers to the surprise of failing, rather than the exam.
Why and how does the word 'which' refer to different components of the above sentences? And is there any grammatical term or reasoning for the above usage?
Thanks in advance

The Canisius College men and women's cross country team competed in the 32nd annual National Catholic Championship on the campus of the University of Notre Dame on Friday afternoon. The women's team finished ninth overall out of 32 teams with the men's team finishing 13th among 32 teams.
The senior trio of Christine Mulvihill, Julie Dahlkemper, and Jill Shea
led the way for the Griffs for their second-straight race this season.
Mulvhill led the women's team, finishing in 23rd place with a time of
18:17, a mere two seconds behind her personal best. Also finishing in
the top-50 among 272 runners were Dahlkemper and Shea. Dahlkemper
finished in 18:45 to place 45th overall while Shea set a 5K-career best
with a time of 18:47, finishing in 48th place.
Leading the men for the second straight race was freshman Chad Maloy.
The freshman knocked over a minute off his personal best (26:47) at the
Duquesne Duals, crossing the line at 25:42 to place 40th among 255
For the 22nd time, host Notre Dame captured the men's title for the 20th time in the last 25 years. The individual champion was senior Matthew Graham of DePaul University with a time of 24:15.
In the women's race, six Notre Dame runners occupied six of the top-10 slots, leading the Irish to their 18th team victory at the race. Junior Jessica Rydeberg became Notre Dame's 17th top-individual finisher with a time of 17:16.
Next weekend at the Little Three Championships, the men's team will defend its fifth-consecutive overall title while the women's team will defend its fourth-straight title when they meet up with St. Bonaventure and Niagara at Lewiston, N.Y. on Sept. 24.
