With Football Program in Shambles, MSU Contemplates Ruining Basketball Program as Well
Yes, that Tom Izzo - the Spartan basketball coach. You know, the guy who's made the Spartans one of the best b.ball programs in the land. The guy who's won one national title and made four Final Fours.
And Izzo even admits that "deep down" he's interested in coaching football but claims he has no intention of leaving MSU basketball for football...right now.
Sweet Jesus, what the hell are they thinking in East Lansing?!
Boy, would I like to be a fly on the wall during the search committee meeting when this brilliant idea was floated...
DUMB SEARCH COMMITTEE GUY #1: "Damnit, guys, our basketball program is too good, too stable. What can we do to run it into the fucking ground like our football team?"
DUMB SEARCH COMMITTEE GUY #2: "Ok, I'm just spitballing here, but what if we took Tom Izzo, one of the best baskeball minds in America, and named him head football coach. I mean, they're both sports and both use balls."
DUMB SEARCH COMMITTEE GUY #1: "Genius! Let's run with that. Now somebody call George Perles and ask him if he's ever coached basketball. Ok, I have to run. We're putting the head of our College of Vetrinary Medicine in charge of our med school."

you can't even MAKE this shit up if you tried.
I'm starting to feel bad for Sparty already
hell, if they are even considering Izzo, then they need to put out an open call to all the game masters on Madden College Football 2005-2007.
Let's set up some criteria for the search committee in East Lansing. Can't be much worse than their current plan.

Michigan State will find a new coach just like Ohio State did six years ago. The new coach will own Lloyd Carr just like Jim Tressel. Michigan State will become the power in the Big Ten as Michigan fades into oblivion. Go BUCKS. Michigan Sucks.

Sort of like the process that led to the Harriet Miers nomination...make the committee sit in a room long enough and eventually they just pick one of the members.

What if Louisville basketball had named Denny Crum head of the Louisville football team and had John L. Smith head of the basketball team ?
Or Bill Frieder coaching Michigan football and Bo coaching Michigan basketball in the 70s and 80s?
What is MSU thinking?

Go Buckeyes.....1 to go.

First of all I'll say I live in Lansing, HUGE Michigan Fan! (went to the celebration for Bo at the Big House today) It was amazing! I wanted to talk about the rumor reguarding Izzo. The first time I heard about it was after the 11/18 game. Some Jackass named "Hondo" that has a show on our local news said something about it. From what I know about him, he used to call talk radio alot. Every show everyday. Granted, Izzo could probabaly do better than John L., they wouldn't even dream of doing that to their beloved Basketball Program. The one thing I've noticed about Spartan Fan being surrounded by them, they sure are happy once basketball season starts!

"Michigan Sucks" instead of "Fuck Michigan"? Gee, Anon 6:44 A.M. must have gotten his hands on a thesaurus. Question is, how did he get his hands on one of those down there in Ohio? Do they give them out at the V.D. clinic? Or were there some leftover from a load in his semi-trailer?

October 29, 2013 > Ohlone College to rebuild main campus
Ohlone College will soon see sweeping changes; a new parking structure at the Fremont campus by the summer of 2015, and replacement of many older buildings by spring, 2018.The campus is notorious for its hillside steps from parking lots to even the lower levels of the main campus; some call it ÒHeart Attack Hill.Ó The college hopes that the South Parking Structure will address some of the problem.Soon after completion of the parking structure, Ohlone College will say goodbye to several buildings that have stood on the hillside for over 40 years. This will be a $135 million project, funded by revenue from 2010Õs Measure G, which issued $349 million in bonds for improvements to renovate classrooms, update technology, upgrade safety and improve access for the disabled.ÒIn the summer of 2015, three buildings will come down simultaneously,Ó said Vice President of Administrative Services Ron Little, with two more demolished and rebuilt, Òfurther down the line.Ó Among the first to go will be the main building which houses the library and most administration offices. The other two buildings are home to classrooms, laboratories and offices. Replacement for one of the buildings will span from the lowest level of the main campus to the highest, again in an attempt to lessen the climb for students and visitors.Following construction of these buildings, two more will be demolished and replaced; other buildings will be renovated. Ohlone College plans to create three new athletic fields, one of which will replace a problematic baseball field with a large depression in the outfield.Asked about the cost of replacement, College Advancement Director Patrice Birkedahl said, ÒThe cost of repairing is so high compared to the cost of building new.Ó During construction, classes will be held in portable classrooms as well as the Fremont CampusÕ Smith Center and Hyman Hall, which house state-of-the-art classes for performing arts and information technology, respectively. Forty-four portable classrooms will be located behind Hyman Hall, in parking lot spaces and an additional 10-14 at the Newark Campus.ÒIt started a number of years ago because our facility was aging,Ó said Dr Gari Browning, President and Superintendent of the Ohlone College, ÒWe were spending a lot of resources on keeping it going and it was inconveniencing a lot of people.Ó Some of the buildings on the campus were experiencing Òbelow-grade water intrusion,Ó according to Birkedahl.The Ohlone College Board of Trustees meets on the second Wednesday of every month, usually on the Fremont campus, though they are also required to meet on the Newark campus twice a year. The Measures A&G CitizensÕ Bond Oversight Committee meets on a quarterly basis; its next meeting is scheduled for January 13, 2014 on the Fremont campus.

Story highlights
- Manchester City move to top of English Premier League with 5-0 win over Aston Villa
- Rivals Manchester United drop to second after losing 1-0 to Norwich City
- Third-placed Chelsea suffer 2-1 defeat away to surprise team West Brom
- Arsenal win 5-2 in London derby with Tottenham, who have a player sent off
Anthony Pilkington was rejected by Manchester United as a youth player, and Alex Ferguson claims he doesn't even remember the player's time at Old Trafford.
But the 24-year-old made a point to the veteran manager on Saturday, scoring the only goal as his Norwich team knocked United off the top of the English Premier League.
Norwich's 1-0 home win left United a point behind rivals Manchester City, who earlier thrashed Aston Villa 5-0.
"We've been a bit more ruthless and we're putting our chances away; maybe we could have had another one at the end to make it a bit more comfortable," said Pilkington, whose 60th-minute header inflicted United's third league defeat in 12 matches and lifted Norwich up to 13th.
"It's a great day for Norwich and it's a massive win for us. We've been performing well over the last couple of weeks and we showed today that we could beat the team that is probably the best in the league."
United went into the match without England striker Wayne Rooney, who was ill, and could not continue a remarkable run of come-from-behind victories.
"They deserved the win just because they worked so hard for it," Ferguson said.
"The players are used to making comebacks and we're always a threat in the last minutes of matches. We had a lot of half-chances but it just wasn't our night."
Manchester City face an early European exit if Wednesday's home clash with Real Madrid ends in anything but victory, but the EPL champions picked up a morale-boosting win as Argentine forwards Sergio Aguero and Carlos Tevez scored twice each against a Villa side who dropped into the relegation zone.
David Silva opened the scoring before halftime, while Tevez and Aguero both netted from the penalty spot once as City remained the only unbeaten team in the division.
"For us it is very important we start to play well and in the last two games we have scored six goals with our strikers," said manager Roberto Mancini. "I think we have been missing their goals."
Third-placed Chelsea's title hopes continued to fade with a 2-1 defeat at this season's surprise team, West Bromwich Albion.
Roberto di Matteo's side have now failed to win in four league games, and this setback came in the Italian's first return to the club that sacked him in 2009.
Chelsea's defeat at the same ground in March ended the reign of manager Andre Villas-Boas, and his assistant Di Matteo stepped up to take charge and preside over a historic first Champions League title.
The London club's chances of progressing to the last 16 of this season's European competition could hinge on getting a result from Tuesday's trip to Juventus in the penultimate match of the group stage.
West Brom moved up to fourth to continue the fine start made by new manager Steve Clarke, who spent four years at Chelsea as assistant manager to first Jose Mourinho and then Avram Grant.
Chelsea, missing injured captain John Terry, went behind to Shane Long's 10th-minute header but midfielder Eden Hazard leveled six minutes before halftime.
However, Nigeria forward Peter Odemwingie nodded the home team ahead just five minutes after the break from a cross by Ireland striker Long as West Brom held on for a sixth win from seven at the Hawthorns.
Everton dropped to fifth after a 2-1 defeat at Reading that lifted the promoted team out of the bottom three on goal difference.
Striker Adam Le Fondre scored both goals in Reading's first top-flight win since May 2008, after Everton led through Scotland forward Steven Naismith.
Everton went into the match without influential veteran Phil Neville, who has been ruled out for up to two months following knee surgery.
Arsenal closed on the top four with a dramatic 5-2 north London derby win against Tottenham, who had Emmanuel Adebayor sent off after giving the visitors the lead against his former club.
The Togo striker netted his first goal for Spurs this season from close range but then saw red after a two-footed lunge on Santi Cazorla.
Arsenal took full advantage as defender Per Mertesacker headed in, fellow German Lukas Podolski scrambled a second and France forward Olivier Giroud also scored before halftime.
Spain midfielder Cazorla made it 4-1 before Gareth Bale reduced the deficit but England international Theo Walcott boosted his hopes of a new contract as he ensured a repeat of last season's scoreline.
Spurs dropped to eighth, two points behind their rivals and one behind seventh-placed West Ham -- who host Stoke on Monday.
Swansea claimed 10th place with a 2-1 win over Newcastle, who went into the match threatening legal action against Senegal's national federation after Papiss Cisse was refused permission to play.
The striker did not travel to Niger for a midweek friendly due to a back injury, so Senegal invoked FIFA's five-day rule that stops players from missing internationals and returning immediately to play for their clubs.
"I love playing for my country and would only withdraw from a squad -- for either a friendly or competitive game -- for a genuine reason," Cisse said.
"I am fully supportive of the position my club has adopted in this matter and am sorry that the Federation seem to doubt my honesty and integrity. I will now consider if I wish to continue to captain my country."
Spanish striker Michu and Canadian Jonathan de Guzman put Swansea ahead before a late consolation from Cisse's compatriot Demba Ba -- the forward's eighth league goal this season.
Liverpool moved up to 11th with a 3-0 win over Wigan as Luis Suarez continued his goalscoring run -- and again ran into controversy.
The Uruguay striker netted a double to move to the top of the EPL charts with 10, but was accused by Wigan manager Roberto Martinez of stamping on David Jones.
"The first finish is probably the real clinical one and a sign of a top player," Martinez said.
"He was very fortunate because it was a stamp which the referee didn't see, and that wasn't the sign of a top player."
Queens Park Rangers lost 3-1 at home to second-bottom Southampton, leaving Mark Hughes' team four points adrift at the foot of the table as the Welshman battles to save his job.

To read all comments associated with this story, please click here.
There seem to be two main camps here: 1) the ones who want technical excellence and 2) the ones who want open standards. Each camp admits that the other is important but disagree on which is more important.
Just about everybody here makes fun of Microsoft for having niether technical excellence or open standards. It certainly makes them an easy target.
On the other hand people argue a lot about Apple who have technical excellence but don't have open standards.
Now we have a review that pits a better product (h264) against an open product (Ogg theora). Eugenia picks h264 because it has better quality and is easier to work with. Other pick theora because it's open and "good enough". Unfortunately there's no concrete right and wrong here. It's all subjective.

Not a horrible move and all but assures Rex will be cast aside after 2013. Idzik could bring Darrell Bevell.
why is this taking so ****ing long? It's starting to get really ****ing annoying now.
Not a horrible move and all but assures Rex will be cast aside after 2013. Idzik could bring Darrell Bevell.
I bet any amount of money at this point that this guy will decline our job offer....who wants to bet? Seriously. It is going to happen, just a matter of when and how.
Plese explain why he flied across country 2 times to interview? to delcine the job once its offered to him? It does'nt makes sense - but not much makes sense with the Jets anyway so I will give you that. If he does decline then something is seriously wrong with Woody's vision of how this organization should be run. Roger Goodell needs to step in and make Woody sell!
I'm worried that there's still no movement.
The 1st thing I can think of is counter offer for more money at his old position where he would not have to uproot his family. The other thing may center around responsibilities, maybe he needed time to think something over or Maybe Woody had to. He could want final say on personnel, not just draft picks. Coaches sometimes want to keep the steady vet rather than the kid that may have some upside.
He is not a kid out of college looking for his first job, his career has been a series of higher steps, he is probably very confident in his ability to grow either in Seattle or somewhere else. He fails here he will not get another shot as playing in NY, your successes and failures get magnified

Tottenham boss Andre Villas-Boas rues worst display of the season in Wigan loss
Tottenham boss Andre Villas-Boas conceded his side's defeat to Wigan was their worst performance of the season.
Last Updated: 04/11/12 9:43am
Ben Watson's goal gave Wigan a shock 1-0 victory at White Hart Lane to condemn Spurs to their second straight home defeat.
Spurs were booed off by their supporters after the game and Villas-Boas had no complaints with the result, admitting that Wigan were the better side and deserved the three points.
"I think they were the better team today," said Villas-Boas. "They were extremely well organised and I think credit to them for the difficulties they created for us.
"For sure it was our worst performance of the season. I think we have the right to have a bad day in the office and I think today was an example of that.
"Credit to the opponent, we had difficulties because we were always under pressure. They managed to organise themselves very, very well and were aggressive in recovery of the ball.
"We went through the first half where we did not have any chances at the goal and they had two good chances to go ahead before us.
"They were superior during the 90 minutes and we make a reflection on the mistakes we did as it is very important if you want to move on in the future."

It was an exciting week for the backyard.
It was an exciting week for the backyard.
Pea-sized hail pelted the ground Wednesday in Bushkill during an intense thunderstorm that downed some trees in Pike County.
Hail is kind of scary and exciting. It is so loud, and potentially damaging that it makes you stop and pay attention.
It is the same sort of unplanned thrill as a black bear lumbering through your yard.
Equally thrilling from your yard, you can get a taste of space exploration, no matter where in the world you live.
On Wednesday the International Space Station passed over Bushkill and Dingmans Ferry. It looked like a fast-moving airplane as it circled the earth more than 200 miles above the ground.
The space station is the third-brightest object in the sky, after the sun and moon, according to NASA's website.
Amazingly, you can see the space station, where astronauts live and do scientific experiments, a few times a month.
If you sign up for the free NASA notification online, you will receive an email or text notification when the space station will be over your backyard.
It will tell you what time and direction to look in the early evening or early morning sky.
Sign up for the notification at: spotthestation.nasa.gov
Youth ages 8 to 18 looking for something to do near their backyard should consider joining a local 4-H club.
The Penn State Extension office has been encouraging the development of new 4-H clubs in any field of study that leaders choose, and now there are a few neat ones to join.
The Museum Muse 4-H Club meets from 5 to 6 p.m. April 18 at the Columns Museum in Milford.
4-H leader and historian Roxanne Scott will guide members through an exploration of art, genealogy, birds, musical instruments, old clothing or anything that sparks members' interest.
The 4-H knitting club meets 6 to 7:30 p.m. April 18 at the Penn State Extension office, 514 Broad St. in Milford.
The Bows on Fire 4-H archery club meets from 5 to 6:30 p.m. April 19 at Belle Reve, 404 East Harford St. in Milford.
The 4-H Palette of Fun Art Club meets 5 to 6:30 p.m. April 19 at the Wild Acres Club House, near 101 Clubhouse Drive in Dingmans Ferry.
For more information on any 4-H program, or to start your own club, call the extension office, 570-296-3400.

4th grader wins CCS bee
Catawba County Schools has a new way to spell winner: K-a-m-i-n-s-k-i.
Blackburn Elementary School fourth-grader Brandon Kaminski, 9, won the system's 2010-11 district spelling bee, which was held Wednesday at Maiden High School.
Kaminski out-spelled 20 students from the county's elementary and middle schools. Every student participating in Wednesday's bee was the winner of their respective school's spelling bee.
"I just really like (spelling), because it gives me the opportunity to do something that no one else in my school has done recently," Kaminski said.
He won the bee with the championship word "unkempt" after seven rounds of competition. Lawson Barkley, a sixth-grader at Snow Creek Elementary School, was the runner-up.
Barkley misspelled "mayonnaise," forcing Kaminski to spell his next two words correctly and nab the victory.
"Mayonnaise was the hardest word I've had to spell," Barkley said.
Kaminski and Barkley received $100 and $50 savings bonds, respectively, from BB&T for out-spelling their opponents on words such as "hippopotamus, "vibrato," "pumpernickel" and "mongrel."
About half of the bee's 21 competitors misspelled a word and were out of the competition by round four. The fifth round was a tough one for spellers, and just four remained at the start of the sixth round.
The bee was originally scheduled for mid-December, but inclement weather forced the competition's postponement until after Christmas break.
"Some of you probably ended up with spelling words, rather than sugar plums, running through your head during Christmas break," CCS elementary education director Leslie Barnette told students as they prepared to start the bee Wednesday.
Spelling bee pronouncer Valerie Cody prepared an extra set of spelling words for students, in case their additional two practice weeks left them in need of more words.
For Barkley, that extra practice time paid off. He said he practiced his spelling words every other day while at home during the winter holidays.
Kaminski practiced spelling with his father, and he was glad the two spent that time together. They practiced German spelling challenge words, which Kaminski admitted were the hardest words he spelled.
Bee judges were CCS Board of Education member Charlie Wyant, CCS AIG coordinator Jo-Nell Isenhour and retired CCS career development coordinator Phyllis Biggerstaff.
Each student stood before the judges and pronouncer and were given a spelling word. Students could ask for the word's origin and/or definition. Once they started spelling, they weren't allowed to change a letter if they made a spelling mistake.
"You are all winners," Cody told the students at the bee's conclusion.
"My stomach is in a knot. If you think you were nervous, we were right there with you."
Every student in the district bee received a T-shirt and an electronic spelling device in recognition for their spelling victories.
As Kaminski was bombarded with gifts, requests for photographs and kind words of congratulations, he made sure to commend students for their hard work in preparing for the competition.
"All of the kids did a great job," Kaminski said.
Other spellers in the bee include: Maximilian Dresden, of Arndt Middle School; Karleigh Wallace, of Balls Creek Elementary School; Jordan Amedio, of Banoak Elementary School; Presley Poovey, of Catawba Elementary School; Dawson Hicks, of Claremont Elementary School; Madison Schultz, of Clyde Campbell Elementary School; Alexis Pennington, of Jacobs Fork MIddle School; Nathan Ozier, of Lyle Creek Elementary School; Meagan Rufty, of Maiden Elementary School; Lauren Hodges, of Maiden Middle School; Zach Fenley, of Mill Creek Middle School; Parker Rawson, of Mountain View MIddle School; Destiny Ussery, of Webb A. Murray Elementary School; Jarrett Dobbins, of Oxford Elementary School; Jenny Moerk, of River Bend MIddle School; Maddison Hardwick, of Sherrills Ford Elementary School; Alina Benjenari, of St. Stephens Elementary School; Kylie Morgan, of Startown Elementary School; and Easton Finger, of Tuttle Elementary School.

I've actually got a weird version of this going on now. I'm going to a science fiction convention next week to sell some jewelry - it will be my first overnight convention (that I'll be a vendor for), and I'll have Bittybartfast with me, so it's going to be interesting. My sister is driving down to help me, and the two of us will split the cost of the hotel room. Since I'm a vendor, I get my convention badge for free and I can get my "assistant" a free badge too. Not that badges are hugely expensive - $30 or so - but it's a nice perk.My sister has a friend in HerCity who is one of those perpetually broke people. She's very nice, kind, etc. but she's always moaning about how broke she is and if anyone suggests doing something that costs money, she complains about not having any. Sometimes someone else will cover for her, sometimes the group changes their plans, and sometimes she just doesn't get to go. (I should mention that she never has money for going out with friends, but frequently has money for things related to her hobbies.)Anyway, since we'll have the hotel room anyway and it really would be nice to have an extra pair of hands (since I will be dealing with a four-month-old while trying to sell stuff!), my sister and I talked and we decided to invite her friend to come with us. She wouldn't have to pay toward the hotel room, since we'd be splitting that cost anyway, and all I'd ask is an hour or two during the convention for her to help me at my booth because a friend of mine is giving a presentation and I'd like to see it.Here's the part - she's still not willing to make up her mind whether she's going to go or not. We're offering her a completely free (other than food) trip to a convention she's gone to the last few years, and has been lamenting about not being able to afford this year, and all I want is a "yes" or a "no" so I can start planning the logistics of doing this with a baby. From what my sister says, it's not a money thing (we can bring our own food and keep a cooler in the room if we want to) - it's a "friend is a flake" thing. I was thinking this would be a nice thing we could offer her friend to come along with which didn't involve anyone having to chip in for her or cover her or loan her money, but my sister is getting pretty frustrated with this particular friend always being on the receiving end of things and never even attempting to reciprocate with a plate of cookies or an offer to help do stuff. My sister may be moving sometime soonish (her boyfriend lives five hours away from where she is now), and I'm guessing when she does, this friend will gradually become an ex-friend.
My boyfriend's friend is a bartender in a restaurant in Boston. Just this week, someone was going from table to table saying he was the manager and due to a shift change, he would have to take the check right now. Several people paid him or handed over their credit cards.There was a tourist who was suspicious, and he started questioning the "manager". The fake manager got nervous and tried to make a run for it.The tourist yelled out for the bartender and they both grabbed the guy before he could make it very far, and the police arrested him.

FWT15: Get Ready
Photo: freerideworldtour.com, T. Haller
The SWATCH FREERIDE WORLD TOUR BY THE NORTH FACE® (FWT) is entering a new exciting phase in 2015, with a comprehensive calendar including two great new venues officially announced. The tour will consist of five venues in total for the men and four venues for the women. New the Pyrenean resort of Vallnord Arcalis, in Andorra, will host both men and women skiers and snowboarders, and the notorious mountains of Alaska, USA, will see a smaller group of men skiers and snowboarders just before the finals and the 20th anniversary of the "Xtreme Verbier" in Switzerland!

"We are very proud to announce the two new venues added to three already existing and exceptional FWT events. The local organizer at the Pyrenean resort Vallnord Arcalis of Andorra has organized a very successful freeride event since 1998, the El Dorado Freeride, one of the most popular 4-star Freeride World Qualifier events. The terrain is spectacular and there are some great faces for an all-star FWT competition. Regarding Alaska, it's the epicentre of big mountain riding and every freerider's dream to go there. The first extreme skiing competitions were organized in Alaska back in the early nineties and that is where the whole freeriding competition scene started! Since we launched the Freeride World Tour in 2008, we have desired to organize a competition there. We are so excited to finally make it happen," said Nicolas Hale-Woods, Freeride World Tour General Manager and Founder.

The Freeride World Tour season 2015 will start off at the mecca of freeriding, Chamonix-Mont-Blanc in France, January 24, 2015, then head to Austria and Fieberbrunn Kitzbüheler Alpen, January 31. One week later, the athletes will take on Vallnord Arcalis in Andorra for the first time, February 14. After the event at Vallnord Arcalis, there will be a cut for Alaska, USA, with 60 per cent of the men skiers and snowboarders qualifying. In Alaska, there will be a longer weather window to ensure the best possible conditions, March 14-22. The exact location in Alaska is yet to be confirmed. Again 60 per cent of the riders after Alaska will qualify to the grande finale and the 20th anniversary of the Xtreme Verbier, March 28! The women qualify directly to Verbier after Vallnord Arcalis.

The 2014 season saw some interesting changes in the leader board with the greatest example of rookie Loïc Collomb-Patton of France crowned Freeride World Champion in Men's Ski his first time on the tour. 16 male skiers, 8 male snowboarders, 7 female skiers and 4 female snowboarders are qualified to 2015. Invited wild cards to the full season and to single events will be announced at a later stage.

I now have bought 6 XM-L lights all in the last 7 weeks or so. The first was the Zebralight SC600(not the W version). I thought maybe it would be too cool tinted, since they also sold a war tinted model, but it really isnt bad at all. I cant figure out which version of the XM-L it or the SC600W model use, because it doesnt seem to be listed in specs anywhere. Then I got the Solarforce L2P w/Thrunite 3 mode XM-L, and it is a T-6 XM-L. When I compare it's beam with the SC600's beam, I cant tell much of a difference in color tint. They are both pretty neutral IMO. Then I got the Eagletac G25C2, and it came with the XM-L U2 LED. It is a little cooler and less warm than the first 2 above^, and when comparing it to the SF L2P, its a little more towards blue, but I wouldnt call it blue.
But before I got the Eagletac G25C2, I ordered the Lumapower D Mini EX-2, with XM-L T6, and I'm telling you, that things beam was pure blue! It was just about as blue as the beams in those cheap, 5mm led's you see bunched up in the bezels of $4 flashlights. It was so blue-ish, combined with several other "issues", I sent it back.
Then 2 days ago, I received my Eagletac G25A and G25C. I chose the T-6 models instead of the cooler/brighter U2 models, thinking they'd be neutral, but this time, they are very yellowish! I mean they make my previously warmest light(iTp A6 with CM-E) look neutral to cool by comparison! They are yellow enough that they render colors inaccurately. They make our light grey-ish brown soil look orange-ish at night!
So, it seems the T-6 is all over the map when it comes to color tint! They are supposed to be neutral, and some are, but others are very yellowish or very blue....
I thought this inconsistency had been "ironed out", and these XM-L bins were consistent by now. So whats up with all this?

Gun violence is as much a threat to public health as it is a concern of the criminal-justice system, and its damage can be curtailed if communities commit to the effort. But too many Ohioans view the fallout of gun violence as inevitable, experts from across the state said yesterday at a conference in Columbus.
Gun violence is as much a threat to public health as it is a concern of the criminal-justice system, and its damage can be curtailed if communities commit to the effort.
But too many Ohioans view the fallout of gun violence as inevitable, experts from across the state said yesterday at a conference in Columbus.
�We don�t believe in prevention,� said Deanna Wilkinson, an Ohio State University associate professor who studies youth violence. �That�s our biggest problem.�
Wilkinson was among the speakers at the daylong gathering sponsored by the Ohio Public Health Association. Organizers said the goal was to increase knowledge of the scope and causes of gun violence.
Firearms are the leading method used in violent deaths statewide, said Mbabazi Kariisa, an injury epidemiologist with the state Health Department. She said 817 homicides and 1,431 suicides in 2010 and 2011 were by gun.
Speakers said the public needs a better understanding of gun-related violence. The topic is rife with misconceptions of all kinds, such as the widespread belief that mass school shootings are prevalent.
�The data tell us that�s not the case,� said professor Daniel Flannery, director of the Begun Center for Violence Prevention Research and Education at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland. �These are still rare events. Schools are still relatively safe places.�
But in too many Ohio neighborhoods racked by poverty, gun violence has become part of daily life and as common a public-health threat as lead paint.
�It all interrelates,� said Kent State University associate professor Eric Jefferis.
Jefferis, a research partner in the Northern Ohio Violent Crime Consortium, said gun-violence hot spots can be pinpointed much like cancer clusters. In one study, 33 percent of a community�s gun crimes were tied to only 5.7 percent of the incident addresses.
Communities must focus on the at-risk youths who are most likely to become the victims and perpetrators of gun violence, Wilkinson said.
Wilkinson has interviewed hundreds of New York City youths directly impacted by gun violence. She now works with local activists and community leaders in one troubled South Side Columbus neighborhood.
The group studies the local dynamics of the violence and strives to prevent it in a variety of ways. Its members conduct monthly marches in the streets to change societal norms and directly intervene in potentially deadly disputes. Mediators have prevented 38 potential shootings in the past two years, Wilkinson said.
�We can prevent two men, who are armed and angry, from shooting each other, in the moment,� she said.
The most at-risk youths feel isolated in neighborhoods that they perceive as incredibly dangerous, she said. But they typically will not resort to violence if they believe they have other options.
�The cycle is just going to keep on going unless we actively intervene,� Wilkinson said.
�It requires persistence,� Jefferis said. �It requires sustainability. It�s a cultural shift we have to go through.�

I can't seem to figure this out. I'm trying to create a program that takes user input to create an array. A loop will then print out possible operations to perform that the user will select. The operations will be count, sum, average, min, max, and standard deviation.
Any help will be very appreciated.
Thank you.

(PRWEB UK) 17 January 2013
Those who love their gadgets and live for the latest and greatest no doubt caught the CES show. The Consumer Electronics Show features the newest, greatest and most popular up and coming gadgets and devices. Protect Your Bubble, gadget insurance company, has a list of the top 10 products released at the show, with some of them due in the U.K. in due time or are already currently available.
10. OD-11 Cloud Speaker – Online music is more popular than the ubiquitous CD, and this wireless speaker obviously hits or list at 10. 26x26x26 cm in volume, it has WiFi and Bluetooth availability. A 100w class D amp means plenty of power for the hottest songs. The remote is touch friendly or adjust volume manually. The Bluetooth 4.0 is a power saver as well, meaning a battery life of up to two years.
9. Lenovo Thinkpad Helix – A Windows 8 ready tablet with 3rd gen CoreTM, 11.6-inch 1080p IPS display that runs as fast as an Ultrabook. Add in NFC, LTE support and those who wish to live in the wireless world may do so with this Lenovo offering.
8. Panasonic Electronic Touch Pen – Those who envy the Sky Sports pundits drawing on the screen after a score will be able to join them in short order. The Panasonic wireless pen allows for scribbling with Viera televisions. Sync to Bluetooth and interact with games, add comments to photos and images. Save to Android or iOS with Swipe and Share as well.
7. Razer Edge tablet – Project Fiona has evolved. The ASUS AiO tablet is a close twin with Windows 8. The Edge has a 10-inch screen, 1366x768 resolution and two choices of processor: Core i5 and i7. Graphics are handled with Nvidia GT 640M GPU. Keyboard and HDMI are attachments available, but the best part is the gamepad case featuring two Wii-like controllers. PC gamers will swoon both at the tablet and the price.
6. Sony Xperia Z – The upgraded Android smartphone sports power to spare. Dust, water and shock resistant, the 5-inch Reality display has Sony's BRAVIA engine 2. 1080p HD and Qualcomm quadcore Snapdragon S4 Pro runs smoothly even when multitasking. 13MP camera on the back 2MP on the front with 4G LTE makes this a king of the beasts in the smartphone world.
5. Huawei Ascend W1 – Chinese mobiles have caught on the Windows 8 bandwagon. At an ultra-thin 10.15mm it has a 4-inch IPS LCD 480x800 plus a 1.2GHz Qualcomm dualcore Snapdragon S4 chip and Adreno 305 GPU. All the memory you could dream of with its 4GB internal memory and 32GB microSD compatible and a 5MP camera. Grab one if interested in updating a smartphone or a desire to swap to Windows.
7. LG 65-inch Ultra HD TV – The 84-inch at £22k TV may be for the ultra-wealthy, but a 65-inch smaller sibling makes for one affordable by the rest of us. 8 million pixels per frame, LG's Magic Remote has over 1,400 apps available and 3D Sound Zooming gives the illusion of distance. Those who live for the sound will love the two 15w woofers and two 10w speakers as standard. But there is a wait until August to own one.
8. Aedle VK-1 – The French may be better known for cheese and wine, but the Aedle headphones are something out of James Bond. Aircraft grade aluminum and lambskin leather make these look like something for the aristocrats of the world, but the titanium diaphragm and 40mm drivers are anything but proletariat.
9. EA Sports MVP Carbon by Monster gaming headphones – Beats by Dre threw in a hand in making these headphones along with EA Sports for a cans that make orders sound like they are in the same room. The sound transcends 5.1 surround thanks to the HDHS (High Definition Headphone Surround) technology. Headband and breathable materials are ideal for those who game well into the night.
10. Samsung S9 UHD TV – Timeless Gallery Frame is Samsung's new solution to a virtual bezel-free body on an 85-inch titan of a television. Add 120w of sound from built-in speakers and upscaling technology for Blu-rays make the newest releases shine. Voice and gesture is standard so those who are always loosing the remote down the back of the sofa may now rejoice.
Another reason to rejoice is in addition to buying a new gadget, there is insurance from Protect Your Bubble, to protect many gadgets Find out more at Protect your bubble for quotes, information and more.

Finding vehicles that are fun for older babies and toddlers that are SAFE can be rough going. Hot Wheels and Matchbox cars are fun for little hands, but the small parts make them a safety hazard for kids that still put toys in their mouths. We've all been there with our older toddlers…but this toy is really more about babies and toddlers.
Here's what our testers LOVE about this one. It has a pull back mechanism that's loads of fun, because it really takes off. This is a great toy for encouraging kids to move! The pleasing poppin' beads inside are much like the classic Fisher-Price Corn Popper AND the toy is $6!

To the editor:
I think that it is disingenuous for the news media to chide Sheriff Mike Scott and other sheriffs for their position regarding the new proposed laws governing firearms. Where was the news media when the Obama administration was refusing to uphold federal law regarding illegal immigrants in Arizona and the nearby states? It was Sheriff Joe Arpaio, in Arizona, who had the gumption and support of the people when he began enforcing the immigration laws. And what did the Obama administration do in response? The administration went after the sheriff! The U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder was filing charges against the Arizona lawman for upholding the federal law that Mr. Holder was sworn to uphold.
It is in the best interest of the people that the news media be more centered in political arguments. The First Amendment is a powerful guardian of the rights of the press. The press should equally be a powerful guardian of the rights contained within the other nine Amendments in the Bill of Rights. The need for accurate and unbiased news reporting is critical if the people are to be informed of all the issues so that they can make an informed decision at the ballot box.

What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
Surely a better reader could have been used Great subject but too hard to listen to
Would you ever listen to anything by Jill Geisler again?
Did the narration match the pace of the story?
Monotone slow
You didn't love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?
Subject matter is great - maybe it one of those you need the hardback
2 of 3 people found this review helpful
Still worth the listen. Learned a lot. Helped me even more second time that I listened. The reader was enthusiastic.
Useful information and covers a broad range of topics, but uses a lot of bulleted lists and self assessment tests, they don't lend themselves to an audio book.

However, there appeared to be no hard feelings about the Surface, at least by Mike Reinhart, president and COO of solution provider RBA, who posed with Jon Roskill, Microsoft corporate vice president for the Worldwide Partner Group. RBA won the Microsoft Partner of the Year Award for global innovation. About two dozen other Partner of the Year winners waited in line to have a photograph with Roskill while Reinhart was posing with him.

Its with great sadness that I say farewell to my good friend Savoyeur (Not to be confussed with Savyour) who unfortunately passed away this week.
Whilst neither of us have played in quite a long time, Savoyeur was one of the good guys, always friendly, always joking and making us laugh, and always the first one to offer a helping hand. I dont know if anyone here remembers him, but he was always quite popular, especially in my former linkshell, where he and his wife were often spoken of fondly, even long after they had left.
Anyway I thought I'd pass on the news, I'm sure I'm not the only one who would like to spare a thought to him, and his wife Aurrie who has lost a fine man far to young.
Sav-O you will be missed!

Former Arsenal midfielder Robert Pires insists Arsene Wenger is still the man to bring success to the club. Arsenal are sixth in the Premier League and have only won one of their five games since the turn of the year.
They have not won a trophy since 2005 but Pires, who made 285 appearances and won six trophies with the club before leaving to join Villarreal, believes Wenger will get them back into the top four come May.
The 39-year-old said: "For me, I always believe in Wenger.
"Everyone knows the task is to qualify for the Champions League again next season. The team has been too inconsistent this season to do much more.
"Against Manchester City recently it was very difficult and against Swansea a few days later Arsenal were better but there have been too many games where they are up and down." Pires also defended striker Olivier Giroud, who has scored nine goals in 30 appearances since joining from Montpellier in the summer.
He added: "The people need to give Olivier time. I know he is a good player.
"It is very difficult to adapt from French football and everyone needs time, even Thierry [Henry] did in the first half of his first season at the club.
"I would tell supporters to relax, Olivier will score goals."

As we celebrate the birthday of Dr. King, it's important that we look at who he was and what his goals were. Unfortunately of late, he's become larger than life, rising to mythic proportions and his actual message is often lost in the process. He was an exemplary citizen, a brave man of action in the cause of justice and putting an end to violence.
Central to his civil rights, social justice, and anti-war efforts was a dedication to the effectiveness of non-violence. He'd seen the bloody results of gun violence: in the Deep South and in Vietnam. He knew it would be counterproductive and self-defeating to meet the forces of violence with more violence. It had to be confronted instead with people power.
Fast forward to 2013. Horrific gun violence and massacres, which would have been unimaginable during Martin Luther King's time, have become shockingly commonplace. Americans are now determined to gain power over this awful sense of helplessness as we learned of those babies being mowed down.
Martin Luther King knew we the people are anything but powerless. He taught that when enough citizens feel sufficient outrage and recognize injustice and are determined to put a stop to destructive inhuman violence, though it takes a lot of sustained effort, we can do it.
That moment is here, now. Spontaneous neighborhood gatherings are happening all across New Hampshire and America to address the disease of gun violence which has, of late, taken so many innocent lives from us. With the massacre of six year olds, we have certainly crossed a threshold where people are rising up and saying "No More!" The important organizing lessons taught by Martin Luther King are today widely understood and are starting to be implemented by millions of fed-up Americans.
We felt shock on Dec. 14 when Newtown happened. But we are anything but powerless.
In King's early days, it was a minority speaking out on civil rights and the war in Vietnam. But a critical mass was eventually reached. We can today make it happen to stop the massacres.
There was a lot of talk about America's gun problem right after King was shot. And again two months later when Bobby Kennedy was shot. Yet today the problem is far worse. The people are ready now.
The leadership of the NRA is today self-isolating with its insistence that anyone who wants any type of weapon or large capacity magazine should be able to get those tools for mass murder at any time with no restrictions at all. Most firearms enthusiasts are also parents and responsible citizens and disagree with that extreme and rigid position.
Sure, the NRA is politically powerful today. Martin Luther King knew about standing up to entrenched powers that rely on violence. He, and thousands of other citizens did it and history was changed for the better.
Ours today is not as difficult a task. The time is now and the place is here for Americans who say "Enough Gun Violence" to organize and to stay with it for the long haul, at both the state and federal level. And this is not a partisan issue. It's just common sense mixed with a determination that our incredibly shocking rate of gun violence has to stop.
Some of us thought something might happen after the killings of Martin Luther King and Bobby Kennedy. After the movie theater massacre many of us asked: what will it take? When the unthinkable happened in Newtown, I believe we know the answer.
The lesson of Martin Luther King is not to place him on a pedestal. It is to channel his sense of justice and his determination to make change, despite difficult odds. He wouldn't want to be revered, he'd want us to emulate his actions, organize ourselves, to shape a more peaceful and just future. That's a really good way to celebrate his birthday.

Ok, where are we now with Karin Herzog? Week 2/3 I believe. The last time I updated I have a few massive pus filled boils on my face and on my chin, as well as few little bumpy areas on my face.
So to update you briefly –
1. The massive pussy (hehe) spots have gone. No eruptions, however my skin still feels a bit bumpy around the chin area.
2. Overall, the skin is looking clearer, and there doesn't feel like there are any further eruptions impending.
3. Its making a good difference to the blackheads on my nose.
4. On the downside I still feel like my skin is not hydrated enough. It still flaky in patches and I am putting Embryolisse face cream on the drier areas to prevent my foundation from clumping.
5. I am still not feeling the radiance – my skin still looks/feels quite tired.
I went for a facial at a local salon, Pure Beauty with a Karin Herzog trained therapist. It was blissful, y'all! I am really new to all these treatment/spa things – its the whole lying down half naked in a dark room and closing your eyes that stirs up similar emotions to being kidnapped – but this was wonderful.
So much so that I kept falling asleep and waking up myself up with snoring – about 5 times. Not just a minor snore, a deep, full bodied piggy grumble. Thank god I had my eyes closed.
Skin had no breakouts afterwards, my skin felt a little warm (it was freezing outside so thats ok) and yep – totally relaxing and I got some advice of how to get the most out of the K.H. for the next few weeks.
I'll update you again in the New Year to see what further progress has been made with K.H. (although it looks like I have nearly used up the cleanser – either I am heavy handed or the cats have been eating it).
Ooh you if you are oop North I'd highly recommend Dawn at Pure Spa, it really was a very good treatment.

Either the 49ers or Houston Texans will improve to 3-2 with a win Sunday night, and while that may not seem too great, think back to the 1994 49ers.
Texans coach Gary Kubiak sure will.
Kubiak served as the 49ers' quarterbacks coach in 1994, when the 49ers started 3-2 before winning their next 10 games en route to the franchise's last Super Bowl championship.
Those memories came flooding back to him Wednesday as he prepared for one final visit to Candlestick Park.
"I've been coaching a long time, the bulk of my career has been in Denver and Houston. I get one stop in San Francisco and we won a championship," Kubiak recalled in a media conference call. "It wasn't easy. I remember our start and how difficult it was. We got rolling and played extremely well. We had a lot of great players and great people."
John Elway's long-time backup in Denver, Kubiak broke into the NFL coaching ranks in that 1994 season by tutoring Steve Young. Kubiak gushed Wednesday about then-coach George Seifert, former owner Eddie DeBartolo and a memorable work environment.
"That crowd in San Francisco was just tremendous," Kubiak said. "It was just a one-year stop for me, but boy, it was an enjoyable one."
Kubiak is coming off one of his toughest losses since becoming the Texans coach in 2006. The Seattle Seahawks overcame a 20-3 halftime deficit Sunday for a 23-20 overtime win.
"That makes it tough, when you go play pretty darn well and you don't finish the product. It's tough to swallow," Kubiak said. "But it is part of this league. There are a lot of good teams, and a lot of close games.
"Now we're facing you guys, obviously a great football team, so we better focus real, real fast to get ready to play."

Recursively find php files and replace tab characters with spaces. Options: "\*.php" -- replace this with the files you wish to find "expand" -- replace tabs with spaces (use "unexpand" to replace spaces with tabs) "-t4" -- tabs represent 4 spaces Note: The IFS="" in the middle is to prevent 'read' from eating leading/trailing whitespace in filenames.
easier way to recursively change files to lowercase using rename instead
print sum of disk usage for filetype within current dir and subdirs Show Sample Output
for when find . -print | grep -v .svn | xargs doesnt cut it.
This is for bash - make an alias - also a good blueprint for making aliases that take arguments to functions. If for Solaris use "-size +${1}000000c" to replace "-size +${1}M" Show Sample Output

One of my friends committed his code in the encoding of GB2312, which broke the build job. I have to find his code and convert.
must be in the directory containing the track outputs to ~ but could be replaced with whatever you like e.g. ~/music/
Take a folder full of files and split it into smaller folders containing a maximum number of files. In this case, 100 files per directory. find creates the list of files xargs breaks up the list into groups of 100 for each group, create a directory and copy in the files Note: This command won't work if there is whitespace in the filenames (but then again, neither do the alternative commands :-)
'-mtime -10' syncs only files newer 10 days (-mtime is just one example, use whatever find expressions you need) printf %P: File's name with the name of the command line argument under which it was found removed. this way, you can use any src directory, no need to cd into your src directory first. using \\0 in printf and a corresponding --from0 in rsync ensures that even filenames with newline characters work (thanks syssyphus for #3808). both, #1481 and #3808 just work if you either copy the current directory (.) , or the filesystem root (/), otherwise the output from find and the source dir from rsync just don't match. #7685 works with an arbitrary source directory.
Consider using this cmd when: 1. You are planning to traverse a big directory. 2. There is a subdir you don't want find to decend to. (entirely ignore) 3. You don't want find to decend to any mounted filesystems under this dir. * The -xdev flag tells find do not go to other filesystems. * -path ./junk_dir -prune is the pattern to ignore ./junk_dir entirely. * The rest is the typical search and print. To ignore multiple subdirs, you can just iterate the pattern, e.g. find . -path ./junk1 -prune -o -path ./junk2 -prune ... If you do want to include other filesystems, then remove -xdev flag. If you want to search files, then change -type d to -type f.
A quick find command to identify all TAR files in a given path, extract a list of files contained within the tar, then search for a given string in the filelist. Returns to the user as a list of TAR files found (enclosed in []) followed by any matching files that exist in that archive. TAR can easily be swapped for JAR if required. Show Sample Output
recursively search dir for a a particular file type, search each file for a particular text. Show Sample Output
Show the top file size in human readable form
Show the top 10 file size
Also: * find . -type f -exec ls -s {} \; | sort -n -r | head -5 * find . -type f -exec ls -l {} \; | awk '{print $5 "\t" $9}' | sort -n -r | head -5
If you want to pull all of the files from a tree that has mixed files and directories containing files, this will link them all into a single directory. Beware of filesystem files-per-directory limits.
-depth argument will cause find to do a "depth first" tree search, this will eliminate the "No such file or directory" error messages
Used this command recently to remove the trailing ?> from all the files in a php project, which has having some unnecessary whitespace issues. Obviously, change *.php to whatever you'd like.
Extract in the current directory the content of all parted archives. Use the same password for each one.
expands through shell and not find but may hits the limit of max argument size for rm (thus: for f in **/*.htm;do rm $f;done but then I prefer the find command ;)

LOWELL -- A three-alarm fire tore through a house on University Avenue early Thursday evening, badly damaging the home but causing only minor injuries to a man who was home at the time.
Neighbors said the house, at 234 University Ave., belongs to Richard Guilbeault and his two sisters, who are twins.
They are known for their elaborate Christmas displays.
Fire officials were still investigating the fire as of late Thursday evening, Deputy Robert Destrempe said.
Whether the house would need to be knocked down could not yet be determined, he said.
Firefighters from Billerica and Chelmsford also helped fight the fire, which drew onlookers from all directions.
The sisters were not home at the time of the fire, around 6 p.
Neighbors said Guilbeault, who is in his 70s, was taken to Lowell General Hospital.
The hospital confirmed later in the evening that he was a patient there but was not able to provide his condition.
According to city records, the single-family, four-bedroom house is owned by Jeannine Guilbeault, one of the sisters who lives there.
The Guilbeaults have lived in the house for decades, according to neighbors.
"They're a nice family. It's very sad," said Marsha Hebert, who owns a commercial and residential building across Fifth Avenue.
"They're a staple of the neighborhood."
A neighbor, Kym Lamson, was about to leave for her job as an emergency medical technician when she saw the smoke.
She immediately got her medical supplies and ran to the aid of Guilbeault. He was taken to Lowell General Hospital but was alert and oriented, she said.
"I think he was more nervous than anything else," Lamson said.
Another neighbor, Richard Martin, said he could hear the sound of breaking glass, looked outside his window and saw flames shooting out of the home's first-floor windows.
Guilbeault told him no one else was in the house but just to be sure, he ran inside the front door and was immediately confronted with heavy smoke.
He decided not to go in any farther, he said.
A family friend, Kevin Burns of Lowell, said the Guilbeaults are avid collectors of antiques. He used to swim in the backyard pool when he was younger, he said.
"It's horrible," Burns said. "I used to grow up in that house."

Is it correct?
That's correct.... for the same reason that projecting a normal cylinder: x**2 + y**2 <= 1, |z| <=1 down to Oxz or Oyz gives only squares.
If you projected to some hyperplane that doesn't go through the origin, you'll have slightly more interesting results.... and if your hyperplane isn't axis-aligned, it'll be even better.

Llangollen is in Denbighshire in Wales.
Get in
The best way to arrive in Llangollen is by car. The A5 (from London to Holyhead) runs through the town. There is also a bus service from Oswestry, about 15 miles away.
Get around
Llangollen is a small town and all the tourist attractions can be reached on foot. The town centre basically consists of one main street running between the A5 and A539, most of the other roads lead off this. There is cheap car-parking in the town-centre, just off the main street.
The town has the usual selection of gift shops that you'd expect to find in Wales. There is/was an antiques centre.
The one and only place to eat is Gales Wine Bar! Freshly cooked food a fantastic selection of wines and a great atmosphere!
Most of the pubs are worth a visit. The Bridge End Hotel is popular with bikers and often hosts rock discos at weekends.
Get out
Carry on along the A539 - you'll end up going through the scenic horse-shoe pass, though avoid this if you don't like heights!

Realizing you are suing the wrong person is not 'backing down'.
Normally this would be true. But the RIAAs lawsuit "MO" is not predicated on sueing the "right" person, only on suing the person they think has the highest probability of folding and paying their extortion fees.
So...thank God for PJ is what you're saying?
How is it the *AA's mistake?
From what the summary says, they were given incorrect information.
This sounds reasonable on the face of it, but in the context of the larger scope of the RIAA's attacks against their customers, it becomes obvious that these are fire-and-forget lawsuits. They are literally trying to bag as many people as possible so that everyone "knows someone who got sued." It's a campaign of fear, and the facts really have not mattered to them. They sued a woman who doesn't know what a cable modem is, and tried to cooperate with them in every way. Still, they went after her, saying to
no, it is time the companies that support the RIAA pay for what they're doing. the quickest way to do that is to outright ignore their garbage- even refusing to pirate their garbage [free publicity right?] stop indirectly supporting these idiots- listen to alternatives!It's really far past the time for the RIAA to start paying for all their mistakes.
The RIAA's website contains a list of members, which has been disputed in the past, as Matador Records, Fat Wreck Chords[4] Lookout Records, Epitaph Records and Bloodshot Records (who are not members) have been listed there.[5] Some may have been automatically included in the list as they were using RIAA members as distributing labels.

Is there anyway to at the very least get your lawyer fees covered? Or do you have to file your own lawsuit to get those?
This is getting fucking ridiculous!
They don't got it in their pocket or their shoes
Chicago you know has Always had The Blues.
I guess this time was RIAA's turn to lose.
Any good blues chord progression should do it, repeat to fit in 12 bars. Prounounce the acronym as a word. Play it until you run out of alcohol or your brains fall out your ears, or both.
The only way the RIAA is going to stop harassing people through the courts is when it costs them so much that they can't sustain it anymore. That won't happen simply by suing for court costs and attorney's fees -- the RIAA (through its members) is much too wealthy for that.
1. Why would defendant accept dismissal without prejudice? Does the evidence not clearly show that the facts alleged in the complaint are without merit? Why should plaintiff have the right to refile?
2. Again, why would defendant agree to accept a sharing of court costs? Are the costs so small that litigating further would not be worth it?
So the overwhelming question for me, is how they can get it so wrong?
I know that the inventory logs that tie the modems to the accounts was never all that accurate for RCN. Techs would pull a modem from one account & swap it for one on another - and not bother to tell us. That & converting through 3 different billing systems in the 3 years I was there - lots of data that really wasn't up to snuff for pursuing a lawsuit. It wouldn't surprise me if this is another case of that - the log said MAC: AA
Elwood: We've got 35 Gigs to download, a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses.I hate Illinois Nazis...err...I mean Illinois RIAA
Jake: Hit it.
However, it turned out that Mr. Thao was not even a subscriber [CC] (pdf) of the ISP [CC] (pdf) at the time of the alleged file-sharing, and therefore did not have possession of the suspect cable modem at that time.
Perhaps we're seeing an economic snapshot of the majority of the US population here. I know very few people who could afford to be sued my a multibillion dollar corporation right now. How many do you know?Given the thousands of cases you would expect the occasional politician, lawyer, rich businessman to be accused.
Vitamin C deficiency is apauling.

OP here. I know this thread is so old now but I ran into my former friend today. The first time anyone has seen her since the end of 2012.I deleted her and her husband from my facebook lover a year ago and while a few other friends are still linked with them on there, they have not posted anything since 2011.We had actually wondered if they had moved away, because we all used to bump into each other all the time around town and no one had seen anything of them.Anyway, I was out shopping today and browsing around a store when I was aware of someone coming towards me between the rails. I looked up, thinking I would move out of their way, and this person also looked up and stared at me. I suddenly realised it was my former friend (she looked totally different - cropped hair) and she realised who I was. Just as I was wondering what to do she looked away and turned towards rails on the other side of the store.I was so taken by surprise I didn't know what to do so I took the clothes I was holding and went to the fitting room. When I came out she was gone.I actually felt nauseous. Like running into an ex who totally blanks you.Crazy.
It's her. Not you.(((hugs)))
Thanks for the update OP. You did fine throughout the whole ordeal. That woman's got issues. Consider yourself well rid. (((hugs)))

Da Nang-Triads War
The Da-Nang-Triads War was a gang war fought between The San Fierro Triads and The Da Nang Boys. Participants of the war include Carl Johnson, Wu Zi Mu, Ran Fa Li, The Snakehead, Little Lion, Guppy and Su Xi Mu. The events of this war occur during Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas.
The war in San Fierro began when the Da Nang Boys attempted to move into the city, trying to force the local Blood Feather Triad group out of the Chinatown district. The Mountain Cloud Boys, led by Wu Zi Mu, begins to extract revenge by employing Carl Johnson to hinder their operations in the city. This first includes picking up a package from Easter Bay Airport whilst avoiding a Da Nang Boys ambush. Carl then acts as a decoy, driving south into Whetstone, to allow Red Gecko Tong leader Ran Fa Li to escape Wu Zi Mu's apartment, as the Da Nang Boys had planned to murder Ran Fa Li when he left the apartment.
Wu Zi Mu then has Carl go on the offensive, first having him sneak onto a Da Nang Boys freighter docked in the Easter Bay and plant a bug on the freighter. Wu Zi Mu, after learning of their illegal traffic ring, sends Carl to deal with the Da Nang Boys leader The Snakehead. Carl and Little Lion attack the freighter in a helicopter but are shot down, with Carl again sneaking aboard, freeing the prisoners and killing The Snakehead. This is unlikely to have ended the conflict between the two gangs, however, events between the two gangs are not continued in the GTA San Andreas storyline.

A new study involving the emerging research on lifestyle's role in breast cancer survivorship suggests that obesity — both before and after a breast cancer diagnosis — is associated with earlier death from cancer or other causes, compared to women at a healthy weight.
The paper was published yesterday in the Annals of Oncology. It adds to a complex and relatively new area of research: what survivors can do to lengthen life and stay healthy.
In a major report on breast cancer survivorship due this Fall, World Cancer Research Fund International's Continuous Update Project (CUP) expert panel will consider this latest paper as it works to shape official recommendations for cancer survivors. AICR is the US member of World Cancer Research Fund International.
The Annals of Oncology paper was written by a team of scientists involved in the CUP, including Anne McTiernan, MD, PhD, Director of the Prevention Center at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center. The paper found that "increased body size is significantly related to survival after a diagnosis of breast cancer…" said Dr. McTiernan. But the findings are not proof, she says, more research is needed. Read more… "Analysis: Obesity Links to Earlier Mortality for Breast Cancer Survivors"
