Despite both M3s leading the GT class for a significant part of the six-hour American Le Mans race at Laguna Seca this weekend, the BMW Team RLL cars ultimately finished in the third and fourth positions.
Bill Auberlen and Jörg Müller completed 232 laps of the 2.238-mile, 11-turn circuit, bringing the #55 BMW M3 GT home in third, scoring their first podium together and delivering the team's third consecutive podium of the season.
Joey Hand and Dirk Müller finished just behind their teammates in fourth place. Both drivers were on the receiving end of contact by competitors during the race, with Hand getting the worst of it while leading.
Rear-ended by the second place Corvette just past the mid-race mark, the #56 M3 GT lost its rear fascia and diffuser, affecting the car's aerodynamic balance for the remainder of the race.
Slowed by caution periods during the first 5.30 hours, the race was decided in the last 15 minutes after the green flag. With Müller in control of fourth, Auberlen restarted the #55 M3 GT from second. Before the experienced Californian could make a charge for the lead, he was blocked by a prototype entering turn one, allowing the third place Corvette to squeeze past. Losing more ground on the exit of the corner he had to settle for third.
BMW now stands second in Manufacturer points. Hand and Müller are second in Driver points with Auberlen and Müller moving into a tie for fourth.
Following the traditional break for teams competing in the 24 Hours of Le Mans, round four of ALMS, the American Le Mans Northeast Grand Prix, will be held at Lime Rock Park in Lakeville, CT on July 7.


text: What You Can Really Expect From Social Security May 08, 2017 If you're employed, you're probably familiar with the concept of social security. But do you know how it started, or what it may mean for you? Let's take a look! What Is Social Security? Social Security is a federal program that provides benefits to retired people, as well as those who are unemployed or disabled. The Social Security Act was signed into law by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1935. Originally intended to help with unemployment, it now mainly functions as a safety net for the disabled and retirees. How Does Social Security Work? Social Security is based on contributions that workers make into the system. While you're employed, you pay in, and when the time comes for you to retire, you receive benefits. As long as you've worked for at least 10 years (if you were born after 1929), you are eligible for Social Security benefits. The earliest you can begin collecting Social Security retirement benefits is age 62, and the latest is age 70. When Can I Collect Social Security Benefits? Keeping in mind that age 62 is the absolute earliest you can claim Social Security retirement benefits, it certainly can be tempting to retire as soon as possible. However, you will have to take into account several factors, such as the fact that the benefits you can claim at this age are reduced. Since full retirement age is currently 66, taking your Social Security benefits at 62 can mean that you only receive about 75% of your monthly benefit. Every year you can delay taking your benefit, that benefit increases. For example, at 66, you will get 100 percent of your monthly benefit. By delaying retirement until 67, you'll get 108 percent of the monthly benefit, and that increases to 132 percent by delaying until age 70. Once you've reached 70, however, your monthly benefit stops increasing, even if you continue to delay. Before you decide when to start collecting your social security benefits, you should consider the following: Other Retirement Income: If you have other investments, these can impact your decision on when to take social security. Factors such as your rate of return on your other investments—and what additional income you can expect as a result—should be considered when deciding when to begin claiming your Social Security retirement benefits. Survivor Benefits: Monthly survivor benefits are paid to widows/widowers, dependents, or minor children in the event that the primary Social Security beneficiary passes away (eligibility varies; always consult your financial planner).If you are receiving reduced benefits as a result of retiring early, keep in mind that you're also reducing benefits for your spouse and/or dependents. Of course, adding in dependents and spouses can make your benefits more complicated, so be sure to check with your financial advisor to ensure you're as informed as possible before making a decision. Collecting Social Security While Working: It sounds counter-intuitive, but some people opt to have a part-time job after they retire. If you choose to do so, know that it could impact your Social Security retirement benefits. If you're younger than full retirement age and earn more than $16,920* per year, some of your Social Security could be withheld. In other cases, it could mean that your payments could be taxed. As always, it is best to consult with your financial advisor before making retirement decisions. Get the Most from Social Security Protecting What Matters Most in Your World Social Security is a complex subject, but it's not one you have to face alone. Whether you are ready to retire or just starting out, your Farm Bureau agent is there to help protect what matters most to you, no matter what your stage in life. From insuring your vehicle to leaving a legacy, talk to an agent to learn more about how Farm Bureau can help protect what matters most in your world.

"Aeon Flux" Bombs!
December 04, 2005, 06:02:12 PM »
So, "Aeon Flux", which cost $62 mill to make, only brought in an estimated $13 mill this weekend. That puts them $49 mill in the hole- not counting whatever they spent on advertisments (which was a ton, as anyone who owns a TV can tell you).
I'm a big fan of the cartoon, but the movie had little to no appeal to me. I read a ton of horrible reviews on Rotten Tomatoes, but I'm wondering if anyone here saw it. If so, what did you think?
BTW, it's nice to see Phorum back up and running again.

I suspected it would bomb. The commercials really gave you nothing that would make you want to go see the film. I think that the only draw would be for major fans of the cartoon but nothing for anyone else. Theron is ok but they missed a major point when they didn't cast some hottie (Kate Beckinsale, anyone?) which at least would have made me and possibly some other men want to see it. I thought Hollywood understood this...if you've got no story, at least stick a hottie in the film in some tight fitting clothes. It's quite simple really.

The sad thing is that Charlize Theron was badly injured (neck injury) making this flop, an accident which will likely cause her problems for the rest of her life.
Kind of like the maiming of John Travolta's career and credibility caused by BATTLEFIELD EARTH...

Do these people who make these movies have any idea what scifi fans want? Do they even care, or are we to forever be doomed to crappy holywood f**k ups that ruin our favorite stories?

My question is wether or not any of you have seen Aeon Flux?
Didn't think so.
See, I haven't either, so I'm not going to give an opinion on it. From what I have read though, it's not a crappy Hollywood action flick but something more along the lines of Equilibrium and Gattica.

Them: "Aeon Flux? Wasn't that some weird cartoon on MTV? I don't remember it much."
Me: "They're making a live-action movie about it."
Them: "Really? Uh, great. I don't think I'll go see it ..."
This is usually the conversation I had with anyone to whom I mentioned the Aeon Flux movie. I didn't figure it would do well.
I only saw one episode of Aeon Flux at a friend's house. I remember that I didn't like the art or animation, and that there were many close-ups of tongues. Going to see the movie isn't on my to-do list.
Added "them" and "me" for clarity.

It very well may be but my point was that with all the advertising they did with the film, nothing really makes you WANT to go see it. Do you know what I mean? The ads are somewhat bland for lack of a better word. I will probably see it when it hits DVD and until then I can't say if it's good or bad just that I won't be seeing it in the theater.

The show is wildly popular in some groups of animation fans. The show's animation director has had a wild past and is a known womanizer. Peter Chung has among his credits, done animation for the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Rugrats, The Animatrix, and even The Transformers Movie. However, read this e-mail and tell me it's not one of the most obscene things you have ever read:
From Peter Chung's e-mail to some of his friends:
So I've been in Korea for about a week and a half now and what can I say, LIFE IS GOOD....
I've got a spanking brand new 2000 sq. foot 3 bedroom apt. with a 200 sq. foot terrace running the entire length of my apartment with a view overlooking Korea's main river and nightline......Why do I need 3 bedrooms? Good question,.... the main bedroom is for my queen size bed,...where CHUNG is going to f**k every hot chick in Korea over the next 2 years (5 down, 1,000,000,000 left to go).... the second bedroom is for my harem of chickies, and the third bedroom is for all of you f**kers when you come out to visit my ass in Korea. I go out to Korea's finest clubs, bars and lounges pretty much every other night on the weekdays and everyday on the weekends to (I think in about 2 months, after I learn a little bit of the buyside business I'll probably go out every night on the weekdays). I know I was a stud in NYC but I pretty much get about, on average, 5-8 phone numbers a night and at least 3 hot chicks that say that they want to go home with me every night I go out. I love the buyside,.... I have bankers calling me everyday with opportunties and they pretty much cater to my every whim - you know (golfing events, lavish dinners, a night out clubbing). The guys I work with are also all chilll - I live in the same apt building as my VP and he drives me around in his Porsche (1 of 3 in all of Korea) to work and when we go out. What can I say,.... live is good,... CHUNG is KING of his domain here in Seoul.....
So,.... all of you f**kers better keep in touch and start making plans to come out and visit my ass ASAP, I'll show you guys an unbelievable time....My contact info is below.... Oh, by the way,... someone's gotta start fedexing me boxes of domes,...I brought out about 40 but I think I'll run out of them by Saturday.....
I like Peter Chung's work because of its original look and the fact that it helped keep MTV's head above water during the mid-90's. When they dropped this show along with other shows like Daria and Beavis and Butt Head, a lot of their fanbase dropped out. And, well, we all have a good idea of what the network's problem is now.

The post wasn't directed towards you but to others.
I agree about the ads. They are pretty bland, and don't really give you any info about the movie.

Ok I have seen it. Let me first say and some of the board may all ready know this that I am a huge Aeon Flux fan. I have all 3 bootlegged dvd and planning to buy the legit set that came out. I watcthed it when it was on MTV as a kid. Needless to say It did have a influnce on me.
Now on to the movie in a nutshell
It started out very promising. After a disease wipes out most of the human race and finally cured the rest of the human race lived in a place called Bregna the last city left on Earth.No one ventures outside it walls because nature got to wild it seems. Aeon works for a rebel faction that want to take down the "All too perfect govement" that seems to be stealing the citizens for experments. She assigned to kill Trevor Goodchild, head of Bregna.
After the first 40 mins the movie just goes down hill. Not to give anything a way it starts to get into cloning how people say it right or wrong Aeon taking the first option. To be honest I just didn't care. It felt like it was getting too politcal with the cloning being a issue now a days.
Their a couple of thing here and there for fans(not many I see) including names of charaters and a scene ripped from the cartoon. Aeons(up in till the end) personality and moves are very much like the cartoon which was cool but not enough to save it from a boring and too political overtoned story.
I can't recommend to anyone really. Even fans.
Most of all I hate dancing then work,exercise,people,stupidpeople

Oh, bummer. My aunt is a fan of the series, and she's going to go see the movie. I was going to go if there wasn't anything else new in my local theater, but not being a fan of the series, I guess I won't now.
Does anyone know if it's as bad as the newer War of the Worlds? (God, I hated that movie.)

Well this news certainly sucks...
When I heard they were doing a movie version of the cartoon I kind of did a double take. To anyone who's watched the show, you would know that it's structure wasn't exactly suited to a full length film, but that was ok, it sounded somewhat promising.
Then I found out Charlize Theron was going to be in it, and my heart drooped a bit further [she annoys me greatly] but then I saw a trailer, and saw the look of Theron and the film in general and thought: well it actually doesn't look too bad.
Then I got kind of excited, putting it on my 'to see in cinemas list' but now I'm hearing it sucks, and well that's dissappointing.
We haven't got any ads out here yet, but then again it's probably a couple of months off. I'm still going to see it, but the more and more I think about it, the more I think that this movie is not going to capture the essence of Aeon Flux the cartoon series.
I liked the cartoon because it was Surreal, odd, and the protaganist didn't always win/you didn't always know who the bad guy was. That was great, and so were all the wierd goings on in the cartoon [cold meat and mutton pie anyone?]
But I find it hard to believe that a blockbuster film starring Charlize Theron would risk going the surreal line [maybe Akiraturbo can enlighten me] and it seems it's trying too hard to make a point and to make it intellectual.
As for the ads that I have seen [online and whatnot], I liked them, but that's probably due to the fact that I'm a fan of the series.
I too really don't see anything to entice the uninformed viewer, especially since Scifi is a difficult genre for alot of viewers.

It's a long way from Vegas.
For the past three years, Torpekay (Peggy) Farhamg, a longtime security guard and dealer at the strip's Imperial Palace, has been living behind concertina wire with American troops in Afghanistan. Ahmadullah Barak, who until recently was a used-car salesman at his cousin's dealership in Jamaica Heights is here, too, daydreaming about a slice of New York thin-slice pizza.
The two are among some 250 American citizens of Afghan origin who have made unlikely career changes and become Pashto or Dari military interpreters here – working as intermediaries between foreign troops and the locals they meet, collaborate with, and fight against – and making big bucks along the way.
Most easily admit it was the generous remuneration offered by the contracting agencies – up to $225,000 a year for those with the highest security clearances, they say – that convinced them to give up comfortable lives and join a war effort in the dusty land they long ago left behind. But there is a sprinkling of idealism as well.
"If they didn't pay well, who would even consider it?" asks Mr. Barak. "But I was excited, too. I thought the Americans could do good here."
The American "terps," as they are known, are paid far more than $800 a month typi- cally given to approximately 3,000 locally hired interpreters. But they also abide by a stricter set of rules.
They may not leave their base, unless on patrol or another mission. They could be prosecuted as traitors if found acting against US interests. And they are not allowed contact with relatives or old friends.
When Farhamg's three nieces, whom she had not seen since she left Afghanistan as a 14-year-old bride 30 years ago, came to the gate of the base one day to greet her, they were turned away.
"My kids think I have lost my mind," admits Farhamg, who today has siblings, grown children, three grandchildren, and a home back in California. "And I am pretty tough ... but when I got here, I cried all the time. I missed everyone and I felt locked in."
The daughter of a well-to-do Kandahar family, Farhamg was brought to the US by her first husband, a cousin who had secured a green card. They lived in Queens, where he worked as a doctor's assistant and she went to beauty school. They had four children before opening a pizzeria. Slowly, she managed to bring most of her family over to join her.
When Farhamg's husband died, she moved her family to Las Vegas for a decade before setting off for California with her second husband, an Afghan widower she met near the slot machines and married, in a traditional green Afghan wedding dress, at Graceland Chapel.
Post 9/11, her eldest son, a high school teacher in San Diego, began dabbling in extremist Islam, traveling to Afghanistan and Saudi Arabia for militant training. Five years ago, he was killed in Mexico. While the case was never solved, Farhamg believes he was murdered by his own mentors and friends after refusing to carry out a suicide attack.
"I can't explain how this happened. He grew away from us," she says, speaking softly. "We are Americans."
After her second marriage fell apart and she needed money, she was talked into returning to Afghanistan by a recruiter. "I had to pay the mortgage. That's why I came here," she admits. "But I have come to find it interesting. I would do it again."
Within constraints, "terp" days can be surprisingly varied. One morning an interpreter might be at a meeting with local shura, or council, members, the next out on a firing range with the Afghan National Army, patrolling with a special force unit in the mountains, or sitting at a computer translating Taliban websites.
Take a random week last month. Farhamg spent a day at the in-camp clinic, a day playing a rape victim during a training exercise for local police, one flying by helicopter to a remote village to hand out winter clothes. The rest of her time she spent at the Kalagush base's front gate, receiving local visitors in between swatting flies and applying the ruby red nail polish her best friend Latifa sent in a care package.
At many bases, the terps create a little world apart for themselves, centered around cooking and eating together. They are welcome to eat in the mess halls, or to share in the Meals Ready to Eat (MRE), but often prefer to cook Afghan dinners with fresh ingredients brought on base by the local interpreters or day laborers.
At Kalagush, Farhamg's cooking has made her something of a celebrity, with soldiers angling for invitations to sit cross-legged in the caravan with the interpreters and sample her eggplant, meat, cumin, and raisin rice specialties. The few female troops on base will often stop by for motherly advice, a hot chai, and a squirt of her Clinique perfume.
But beneath such semblances of normality at bases, there is also an acute sense of frustration and disappointment, as well as fear for the terps.
"My parents were so excited that I came here, but everything has been disappointing. I don't even want to tell them how sad it is," says Barak, who grew up in Kabul before coming to Arizona at 25 as a political refugee. "We threw out one group of bad guys and brought in another.
"America is trying, but corruption is insane. Worse than ever before," he continues. "Billions of dollars are pouring in, but warlords in Kabul are living in mansions while people there still don't have electricity half the time – and the roads everywhere are collapsing because contractors stole the money. It's far greater a challenge than America expected."
"We are doing small projects, a road here, a school there – but regular people see corruption at top levels, and they just don't like us. And this helps the Taliban get strong again."
Mujeeb Saify, a local interpreter, nods sadly. He is supporting his family with his salary, and admires the soldiers he works with. But, after three years in the job, he does not go home to visit his parents and siblings in Jalalabad anymore, for fear of putting them at risk. And like others here, he wears sunglasses while out on a mission to mask his identity.
While there are no statistics provided by coalition forces on the number of interpreters who have been killed or wounded in Afghanistan, the numbers are reported to be in the hundreds, with many locals killed as punishment for working with the US.
Mr. Saify's best friend, Hayat Khan, a fellow interpreter, was forced to flee after the Taliban put out word that he was to blame for the killing of civilians at a wedding party mistakenly hit by an American bomb. Two other friends from English language school were also killed – the Taliban calculating how much they had made as interpreters over the years and demanding that sum from their parents in return for the bodies.
Saify's dream, he says, sitting on the stoop in front of his tent and leafing through a worn TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) book, is to become an American like Barak and Farhamg, and go to college. Five months ago, he applied for one of the 50 visas allocated every year to interpreters wanting to come to the US.
"Brittle. Broom. Brothel. Bully," he mouths, going over vocabulary words. He can't decide if he wants to study political science or engineering. "Tolerant. Torture. Touchy. Tranquil." According to US Citizenship and Immigration Services, close to 500 Afghan interpreters have already applied for the visa slots this year.
"One thing is for sure," says Barak, watching Saify. "I have a new appreciation for being an American. I miss that place now."

Yes we are and have been since the Register Of Number Pate Suppliers (RNPS) was set up on the 1st Jan 2003. Our registration number is : 3396.
5. Are you able to make the old black/silver number plates?
Yes we can however ours are non-breakable acrylic and not pressed steel as they used to be in the old days. In the UK, only vehicles which were made prior to 1973 are permitted to show black/silver number plates, so you have been warned. To order black/silver number plates then you need to do so on the telephone and not on this web site. Call us on 0845 838 5167 (office hours) and we will be pleased to assist you.
6. Will my number plates arrive pre-drilled
No they will not. All vehicles have their fitting holes in different places and for this reason we do not pre-drill your number plates. We always recommend that you use the sticky pads in our fitting kit. When ordering number plates on our plate builder, a fitting kit is included in the price you see but you do have the option to remove it.
7. How long do I have to cancel my order?
number plates are a bespoke item and are made especially for you and nobody else. At Demon Plates, to ensure that we keep our customers happy with rapid delivery times, we start on an order as soon as it is received. Because of this it is not possible to cancel or amend an order which has been placed on either the internet or the telephone. You should be sure when placing an order that you do in fact wish to place one and that you place it correctly using all the correct details.
8. Do you take telephone orders?
We sure do. If you do not wish to order on this web site then please do call us on 0845 838 5167 (office hours) and we will be more than happy to take your order by telephone with your credit/debit card as payment.
9. Can I pay you by cheque?
Sorry folks, we work at speed to achieve a rapid turn around of our number plates. Accepting cheques just slows the whole thing down through waiting for them to clear through the bank. For this reason, our plates may only be ordered with a credit/debit card either online or on the telephone.
10. Can you show me a design before you make the plates?
Yes and we're happy to do this for you. However, to deter time wasters we do not carry out any design work without an order first being in place and payment details taken. You call us up on 0845 838 5167 (office hours), we'll take the order from you on the phone and then e mail you the design as many times as it takes till you approve it. Our number plates are the best and this is another example of our service being the best also.
11. Can I have my plates sent to an address different to my cardholder address?
Sorry, no. This is something that we are very serious about for two reasons. Firstly, we are more than aware of the problem with car cloning and by only sending number plates to the cardholder address we are making a big effort in our bid to reduce it. Your number plate is yours, you would not want us selling plates showing your number to somebody else would you? Secondly, we do not want to suffer as a result of credit card fraud. It has happened many times in the past and we take every measure to try and ensure it does not happen in the future. Sorry, we only send our number plates to the credit cardholder address and these details are stringently checked.
12. Will you make plates with an illegal spacing?
To mis-space or mis-represent your numbers is an offence under the Road Vehicles (Registration and Licensing) Regulations 1971. Here are typical examples of how a registration number should be spaced: MD55 HTY, W345 BMA, DFG 345T. We will do this for you but be advised, the plates will be supplied to you strictly for off road / show use only. The answer to this question is yes but you have been warned!
13. Do you really sell Registration Numbers including a set of plates for only £20.00 + delivery?
No we do not. As the site clearly states in many places : Very Important. You cannot simply make up a registration number and use it on the UK highway. Either yourself or the person you're buying for must already own the registration number you will use. Demon Plates do not sell registration numbers, we simply make number plates.
14. Is it legal for me to have a badge on my number plates?
Due to interpretations of the law and the differeing opinions of police officers on it, we do not like to comment on what the law does and does not state. Instead you are urged to visit the DVLA web site where you will be able to do your own research and arrive at your own opinion prior to placing an order. We at Demon Plates make both road legal (UK use) and show plates for off road use. If you are in any way concerned then you should consult the DVLA web site as that is what it is there for.
15. Do you ship your number plates internationally (outside of the UK)?
Yes we do. We do and have shipped our number plates to many countries in the world. With our design software and CNC routing technology we can recreate any design or size of number plate. If you are calling us from outside the UK then please do so on 0044 845 838 5167 (in UK office hours - Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm) and we will be more than happy to help. Sorry, English language only though I'm afraid.
16. Can I order a single number plate and not a pair?
Yes you may, see below a screen shot from our plate builder
To the left of where the price is shown, you will see that you have the option to select both plates, front plate only or rear plate only and the price will change accordingly. You may add as many single or pairs of number plates as you wish to the basket and buy them all in one transaction with one carriage charge Click Me now to go straight to our plate builder
17. Can I order multiple sets of number plates in one order?
Yes you may, you may add one plate, one pair or as many single or pairs of plates as you like to the basket and make your purchase in one transaction. To proceed to the plate builder and order number plates then click me.
18. Will the number plates show the makers details and the legal markings 'BSAU145d'?
Yes our plates will show these markings because this is what the UK law requires for plates which are used in the UK. People seem to think that we put these markings on the number plates because it gives us free advertising. This is most certainly not the case. We put these markings on there because it is required by law and your car could very well fail an MOT without these markings. The markings are only 2.5mm high and although they can be read, they are really small and do not interfere with the plates design. The markings have to be on plates made by companies within the UK for plates used within the UK to assist the police in the reduction of car cloning. If a set of our number plates are used in crime then the police know who made them and they will come to us to ask who they were sold to.

CONWAY, Ark.—Scoring three unanswered goals in the fourth quarter, the Birmingham-Southern men's lacrosse team picked up a 7-5 victory on the road today against conference rival Hendrix College in Conway, Ark.
BSC moves to 6-6 overall and 3-2 in the Southern Athletic Association, while Hendrix falls to 7-7 overall and is also 3-2 in the SAA now.
The Panthers scored the first two goals of the game, with sophomores Harris Oates and Austin Hafdell putting BSC up 2-0 by the 4:55 mark of the first quarter. Hendrix tied it up with two goals in the last four minutes, however, and then pulled ahead with a goal early in the second quarter.
Back-to-back Oates goals put BSC back in the lead, 4-3, before halftime.
The Warriors scored the only two goals of the third quarter to pull back ahead for the third lead change of the day, before the Panthers scored three in the fourth quarter while holding Hendrix scoreless for the 7-5 win. Sophomore Evan Lalande found the back of the net at the 10:41 mark to tie it up 5-5 before senior Peter Raffanti scored the go-ahead and game-winning goal at the 7:53 mark. Sophomore Luke Herline added an insurance goal for BSC with 5:09 left in the game.
Oates led with three goals, freshman Thomas Grove led with seven ground balls, and senior Brad Cooper led with five caused turnovers. Grove also led with five face-off wins. Junior goalkeeper Conor Perine played all 60 minutes in the net and made six saves.
The Panthers are at home tomorrow for the final home game of the regular season, hosting Methodist University at noon for Senior Day.

Mike Trout, the best young player in the game IMO, was selected 25th overall his draft year. Chris Sale, the best young player on our club, was selected 13th overall in 2010. You don't have to be drafting in the top 10 to get a good player, and even if the Sox get the No. 1 overall pick, they are hardly guaranteed of getting a future All-Star. In addition to scouting and development, there's a degree of luck involved.
I also don't understand this fear that a late-season winning streak will cause Hahn to deviate from his plan. First of all, I don't think a late-season winning streak is forthcoming. The team is bad. You see it. I see it. So does the front office. Secondly, the die is cast. They've already traded Peavy, and I'm sure they'll try to make a move with Rios and/or Dunn -- either before Sept. 1 or during the offseason. They would not have traded Jake if they were thinking of bringing the band back for one more run next year. That isn't going to happen.
As for the remaining 50 games of this season, I'm with the OP. Win as many as you can and try to get out of last place. Other than individual pursuits, there isn't a lot for the guys on the Sox roster to play for right now. They already know they aren't going to the playoffs. One of the things they can do to keep themselves mentally engaged in the season is say, "Hey, let's try to catch the team in front of us." Does it mean anything? Not really, but setting a goal like that is a way to keep guys playing hard at the end of a lost season. I'm all for that. I love to win and hate to lose. I have no patience for people who root against their own team to secure a better draft pick. Maybe that's why I'm not a big NFL or NBA fan. That mentality sucks, IMO. It's especially fruitless to do that when you know a higher draft pick doesn't guarantee a damn thing.

Jackrabbits Survive a Scare, Beat Western Illinois, Take Sole Possession of First Place in Summit League
When South Dakota was ripping off eight straight wins to start the Summit League season, none of those victories was closer than the Jacks 67-66 win at Western Illinois, as SDSU rallied from a 10-point halftime deficit to win on a Steph Paluch layin in the final five seconds.
Saturday afternoon in Brookings, the Jackrabbits needed more second half heroics, as they rallied from as many as eight down to beat the Leathernecks 83-79.
The win, coupled with an IUPUI loss at South Dakota, moved the Jacks back into sole possession of first place in the Summit League.
South Dakota State scored the first six points of the game but then lost their shooting touch for most of the remainder of the first half, hitting just four of the next 17 from the floor to see a six -point lead turn into a six-point deficit.
University of Missouri transfer Tori Niemann led a red hot shooting effort for the Leathernecks in the first half, hitting 5-of-6 for 11 points, WIU shot 64 percent in the first 20 minutes.
To make matters worse, Jackrabbits leading scorer Megan Waytashek injured her left ankle in the first half, sending her to the locker room. She spent the second half on the bench sporting crutches.
Rebounding, free throw shooting, and Mariah Clarin kept the Jacks in it in the first half. SDSU was plus-8 on the boards and didn't allow WIU to get an offensive rebound, while the Jacks outscored the Leathernecks 10-2 from the line, and Clarin was the lone bright spot on offense, scoring 10 on 4-of-5 shooting. The rest of the SDSU starters were a combined 3-of-16 in the first half.
But despite their shooting woes, the Jacks were down just 35-34 at intermission.
Western Illinois wasted little time pushing the lead to eight in the second half, as the Summit League's 3rd leading scorer, Ashley Luke - shutout in the first half - scored seven in the first 4:30 of the second to make it 50-42 Leathernecks. She finished the half - and the game - with 20 points.
SDSU mounted a charge with Paluch and Tara Heiser each scoring five to even the score at 58 with 10:50 left.
Western stretched the advantage back to five, but again the Jacks had an answer, Heiser with a putback to give SDSU a lead at 74-73, then a 3-pointer by Kerri Young and a driving score by Paluch made it a 7-0 run and a 73-73 lead with 2:27 left.
But with the ball and a five point lead, the Jacks turned it over twice in the final 49 seconds, and WIU took advantage, trimming the lead to three, and with six seconds left Michelle Maher had a 3-point attempt to tie the game, but it missed, and SDSU held on for the victory.
Paluch, Clarin, and Heiser all finished with 14 points for the Jacks, who outrebounded Western Illinois 43-30, but did allow nine offensive rebounds in the second half. SDSU made up for allowing the Leathernecks to shoot 52 percent from the floor, by hitting 77 percent from the free throw line, outscoring WIU 20-12 at the charity stripe.
South Dakota State (19-8/10-1) is off until next Saturday when they host North Dakota State.

This is in response to the floated policy which would reduce payment to proceduralists to fund a 5% increase in primary care. I knew the specialties would fight it, but I didn't expect that they had this much clout, especially being such a fragmented group of interests.
It will be interesting to see whether this is just posturing or whether this bipartisan group has enough clout to block the Senate's proposal.

I did it. I participated in my first Fantasy Football draft yesterday. There was much adrenaline, some light sweating, a middling amount of cursing, and mild beer drinking. So all in all, it was fucking fun.
I figured it would be fun to play a team that was based on my previous post, where I ranked the 2013 players according to attractiveness, so I joined a random Yahoo league to try them out (I can't actually allow myself to use that list against opponents I actually know, because seriously... competitive).
It's fair to say all the people on this new league think I'm absolutely batshit, but you know, fuck 'em.
Without further ado, I proudly present to you my first fantasy football team, aptly christened "A Hawt Mess".
Round One:
Conventional wisdom says pick your running back (RB) first. You'll remember how few hot RBs exist so I'm pretty sure this has to do with scarcity. Sadly, I got 8th pick (out of 10 people in the league), so I had to adjust my plan as my 1st round choice, Ray Rice, was already swooped up. So, I went for my QB, and I'm actually happy I did, because I got this sweet little nugget to lead my team:
Cam Newton, QB, Panthers
Easy Peasy. Yes, I had him 3rd ranked for QB, but this Mark Sanchez guy is hurt and evidently sucks donkey dong and I do have some integrity... Evidence of that: I couldn't bring myself to pick Tom Brady (because let's face it, that guy is probably a collossal douche). So I technically got my #1 QB choice.
Round 2:
My second choice came up quickly as it snakes back from 10 to 1, so I grabbed up my #1 choice for RB as the RBs were flying off the shelves.
Reggie Bush, RB, Lions
I probably could've left him for my 3rd round pick, but whatever, he was my top RB pick and I wasn't taking any chances since #2 (Ray Rice) and #4 (Adrian Peterson) were already long gone.
Round 3:
Ahmad Bradshaw, RB, Colts
I just can't resist this guy in his glasses. So I picked up my #3 RB choice. Can't believe this yummy snack was still available! At this point I started to panic about my wide receivers, and would spend my next 3 picks on them.
Round 4:
Eric Decker, WR, Broncos
I got him!! I got him!!! I woulda picked him twice if I could.
Round 5:
Wes Welker, WR, Broncos
So, I did the next best thing and grabbed up his dee-lish teammate. I was a little bummed to have just missed out on Danny Amendola, but I happily added this stud to the stable. But now I had to start worrying about bye weeks and whatnot. Which got me thinking... are any of these guys bi? Let's face it, if any of the guys in the NFL are gay, certainly they're the ones on my team, because HOT. AS. FUCK.
Round 6:
Stevie Johnson, WR, Bills
My #4 wide receiver on my list, you can bet at this point I was pleased as fucking punch. Sure, the other guys in my league thinkI'm certifiable at this point, but they don't know the method to this madness. I'd gotten my QB, RBs and WRs-- all in my top five rankings!!! And I just love this guy. He's got this hipster street style that makes him look more arty than sporty. Like maybe when he gets off the field he's a part-time DJ or guerilla artist. At any rate, he adds some much needed hot-intellectual flavor to my team.
(I have no idea if he's actually smart. He could be a functioning retard for all I know. Remember, I'm shallow. This is based on looks alone.)
Round 7:
DeMarco Murray, RB, Cowboys
Yes!! For my 1st back-up RB, I swooped up my #6 pick. I think you can see why.
Round 8:
Greg Jennings, WR, Vikings
Picked up my #10 wide receiver choice. Started to sweat a little over when I should grab up my kicker. As you know, those pickings are slim.
Round 9:
Golden Tate, WR, Seahawks
At this point ALL the guys on my list were taken. Luckily Yahoo provides a small thumbnail pic of everyone left along with their stats and other useless information. So I had to click through the top remaining WRs and make some quick calls (as any good coach would, I guess). Of the players remaining at WR, and time ticking away on my draft clock, I snagged this guy, who also had a bye week that fit in. Heeheee. A "bi week" sounds like some experimental college hijinx.
Round 10:
Jordan Cameron, TE, Browns
I was a little worried to hold off grabbing up my #1 TE choice, but had been assured by a friend I could wait a looong time and still get him. He was right, and thank god, because I added this tasty yum-stick with glee. Plus, he plays for Cleveland and it's the least I could do for Edna and TOM.
Round 11:
Antonio Gates, TE, Chargers
My #6 TE choice was still available (I KNOW!! WTF are the rest of these guys in this league THINKING?!?!).
Round 12:
Ben Tate, RB, Texans
I needed another backup RB. This was another on-the-fly draft choice, but I gotta say after finding this pic... works for me.
Round 13:
Adam Vinatieri, K, Colts
At this point I was panicked that I hadn't grabbed pretty much the only kicker in the NFL fit to join my team, so you can imagine my relief in this hot pickup.
Round 14:
Baltimore Ravens, Defense
Pretty much all the Defense/Special Teams had already been taken, as well as anyone worth having as a backup QB, so I decided to take this and hope there wasn't a repulsive QB left for my final pick. I'll just hope these guys leave their helmets on the whole season.
Round 15:
Ryan Tannenhill, QB, Dolphins
Of the remaining QBs available that ranked relatively high on my list, this was my only choice. Yeah, I get the feeling he sucks, but he doesn't necessarily detract from the overall hotness of my team, so... drafted.
There you have it. The hottest fantasy football team in any league anywhere. I figure they call it FANTASY football for a reason, right?
Sidenote: After you draft through Yahoo they send you an email giving you a letter grade on your draft. They gave me a D, which couldn't be more fucking appropriate for this team if you ask me. I'll take the D from this team any day of the week, and twice on Sunday.
I'll keep you posted on how A Hawt Mess performs. And now I can focus on doing a real kick-ass draft for my actual team, Inappropriate Sack. Wish me luck! xo

According to the 2009 Economic Outlook Survey from Troy, N.Y.-based GlobalSpec, engineering, technical, and industrial professionals have felt the impact of the economic slowdown on their businesses, yet are still working on specific types of projects, as well as specifying and purchasing products and services. More than 3,800 GlobalSpec registered users — comprised of engineering, technical, industrial and manufacturing professionals — completed the survey, designed to gather data and report on the 2009 North American economic outlook from the point of view of professionals working in the industrial sector.
In the face of the economy, engineering, technical and industrial professionals are continuing to specify and purchase products and services. Top products and service areas where respondents will be spending the same or more money in 2009 compared to 2008 include electrical components, mechanical components, calibration and testing services, and electronic components.
Results indicate the industrial audience is performing an increasing amount of work, research, and product search online. A full 42% of engineers and technical professionals spend six or more hours per week on the Internet for work-related purposes, and 62% visit six or more work-related Web sites each week. Online media represents four of the top five resources used by engineers to search for suppliers, products, components and services, and 46% of respondents read e-newsletters at least daily or several times per week.
The survey shows that engineering and technical professionals will be spending more time and effort entering new markets, researching future projects, saving energy, and working on new product design and development — leading to near-term spending, with more than two-thirds of respondents indicating that they will be working on more or the same number of projects in 2009 compared to 2008. According to respondents, 50% are spending more time on projects to save energy, 48% on projects to reduce waste/scrap, and 47% on projects to decrease quality rejects.
"In today's challenging business environment, it's more important than ever to understand how your customers are affected by the economy, focus on specific target markets that are most viable and maintain marketing frequency and consistency where the greatest opportunity exists," says Angela Hribar, GlobalSpec chief sales and marketing officer. "Companies looking to gain their share of market opportunity during these uncertain times should consider reviewing the markets they sell into and seeking out new markets if appropriate, fine-tuning their messaging to address the types of projects that industrial professionals are working on, and right-sizing marketing spend to reach their target audience where they are looking — online."

Mayor's Office
Mayor Chris Beutler has released a City budget he says "puts our fiscal house in order" through a combination of budget cuts, reorganization, a utility cost shift and revenue increases. The proposed $144 million tax-funded budget is a 2.66 percent increase over last year. The Mayor will present his 2011-2012 budget to the City Council at 1 p.m. Monday, July 11 in the City Council Chambers, 555 S. 10th St. The presentation will be carried live on 5 CITY-TV (government access cable channel 5) and available through video-on-demand at lincoln.ne.gov.
"Our proposed budget meets the two most pressing challenges faced by the City: fixing the budget's structural imbalance and investing in roads for our future," Beutler said. "We have to choose whether we want to make cuts that change the essential character of our community or make the investments that will both build the roads we need and put our fiscal house in order."
Beutler said his proposal will allow the City to continue to fund neighborhood libraries, seven City pools, the Pioneers Park Nature Center, over 90 City parks, six Police Officers, four Public Safety officers and three victim and witness advocates.
The City faced a budget gap of about $9.3 million, and Beutler said $4 million of that can be attributed to five factors beyond City control:
The Mayor proposes covering the $4 million with a 2.8-cent increase in the City's property tax levy. The 1.38 percent increase in the total property tax levy would add $3.49 per month to the taxes paid on a $150,000 home. Except for voter-approved bond issues, it is the first City property tax increase since the 1993-94 fiscal year. The City's property tax levy would remain one of the lowest among the State's 15 largest cities. Lincoln's share of the total property tax levy is about 14.4 percent.
The budget also calls for shifting about $6 million in costs associated with street lights to the Lincoln Electric System (LES). About $2.7 million would go to the City's General Fund. Another $2.7 million along with $1.2 million generated by a $10 wheel tax increase would provide $3.9 million in road funding for 2011-2012. Road funding would rise to $7.1 million when the plan is fully implemented. The remaining $500,000 from the LES shift would go into the City's "rainy day" fund.
Beutler said the City's past use of one-time funds has contributed to the budget challenges, and no one-time funds will be used to balance the 2011-12 budget.
The proposed budget calls for the net elimination of 35 positions. That brings the total net job loss in the Mayor's first five budgets to 151, a savings of about $7.4 million. The $2.2 million in cuts and reorganization proposed for 2011-12 include:
The entire budget and the City's prioritized program list are available at lincoln.ne.gov. The public hearing on the City budget is scheduled for Monday, August 8. The new fiscal year begins September 1.

The yen touched the weakest level in almost three years against the dollar after the Bank of Japan governor said he will step down early, accelerating a transition that may aid the prime minister's plan for aggressive easing.
The euro fluctuated against the dollar as French President Francois Hollande called for leaders to steer the currency's exchange rate, and the European Central Bank's balance sheet shrank to the smallest in almost a year after euro-area banks started to repay emergency loans. Australia's dollar weakened after the central bank said the inflation outlook allowed scope for further interest-rate cuts. BOJ Governor Masaaki Shirakawa will exit on March 19, almost three weeks before his term was due.
"The yen is a big mover today and that has to do with this announcement from Shirakawa that he's resigning earlier," Eric Viloria, senior currency strategist at Gain Capital Group LLC in New York, said in a telephone interview. "The rise in euro yen is more of a Japanese yen move."
The yen slid 0.8% to 93.13 per dollar at 9:42 a.m. New York time after touching 93.52, weakest since May 13, 2010. The euro rose 0.8% to 125.81 yen after reaching 126.97 on Feb. 1. The shared currency was little changed at $1.3516 after rising and falling 0.4 percent.
The JPMorgan G7 Volatility Index, calculated based on premiums on currency options, climbed to 9.4%, the most since Aug. 2. It dropped to a more than five-year low of 7.06 on Dec. 18.
Balance Sheet
"We can't let the euro fluctuate according to the mood of the market," Hollande told reporters at the European Parliament in Strasbourg, France, becoming the most powerful European official to warn that the rising currency may deepen the recession.
The ECB balance sheet dropped 159.1 billion ($215.1 billion) to 2.77 trillion euros in the week ended Feb. 1, the Frankfurt-based central bank said in a statement. That's the lowest level since Feb. 24 last year. ECB lending to banks declined 140.8 billion to 1.02 trillion.
The ECB's balance sheet is shrinking just as the Federal Reserve and Bank of Japan expand theirs through further monetary stimulus. That's pushing the euro higher, threatening to undermine European exports and a recovery from recession. The ECB meets Feb. 7.

It was the pressure to kill a big buck on film that got the best of three individuals that were part of the filming crew known as Nock'd Up Productions when they gave in to temptation last November.
The case began when Conservation Officer Deb Howe received a call from a tipster asking if Jesse Bolin, 31, from Tarkio, Mo., had an Iowa non-resident archery license because he had just killed a buck along the Missouri border, possibly in Iowa.
The investigation of Bolin expanded to include Steven Cole, 33, of Hamburg, Iowa, and Jesse's brother, Paul Bolin, 28, of Tarkio, Mo.
Howe, working with officers from the Missouri Department of Conservation, Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism, US Fish and Wildlife Service and other Iowa conservation officers, collected enough evidence to conduct a search warrant of Cole's residence in November 2012 where they found 23 illegal deer racks from Cole, 12 turkey beards and spurs, deer meat, pheasant meat and geese and ducks waiting to be mounted.
At the Jesse Bolin residence, officers seized the deer he killed in Iowa, bow and archery equipment, double bull blind and a video camera.
Cole admitting to killing an Iowa buck, then purchased an archery tag after the fact. He had also been purchasing resident licenses in Missouri and in Iowa.
Cole pleaded guilty in Page County to two counts of unlawfully harvesting a turkey, being over limit for turkey, unlawful taking of a buck deer and not having a valid turkey license and tag, hunting license, archery deer license and tag or habitat fee and fined $10,400 in civil damages.
In Fremont County, Cole pleaded guilty to two counts of unlawful possession of buck deer, unlawful possession of waterfowl and wild turkey. The total fines in addition to the civil damages came to nearly $1,900. He was also sentenced to two years in federal prison for being a felon in possession of a firearm.
Jesse Bolin pleaded guilty to unlawfully taking a buck deer, no valid hunting license, deer license or tag. He was ordered to pay more than $1,200 in civil penalties and fines, perform 100 hours of community service in Waubonsie State Park and forfeit his equipment seized by the DNR. Jesse Bolin is a police officer in the Mound City, Mo., Police Department.
Paul Bolin pleaded guilty to no valid archery deer license and was fined $654.
Jesse's hunting privileges were suspended for one year and Cole's for three. Both also face possible suspension in the 40 member states of the Wildlife Violator Compact. Jesse Bolin and Cole also face hunting violations in Missouri.

The ACE test measures the level of angiotensin-converting
Alternative Names
Serum angiotensin-converting enzyme; SACE
How the Test is Performed
A blood sample is needed.
How to Prepare for the Test
Follow your health care provider's instructions for not eating or drinking anything for up to 12 hours before the test. If you are on steroid medicine, ask your provider if you need to stop the medicine before the test, because steroids can decrease ACE levels. Do not stop any medicine before talking to your provider.
How the Test will Feel
When the needle is inserted to draw blood, some people feel moderate pain. Others feel only a prick or stinging. Afterward, there may be some throbbing or slight bruising. These soon go away.
Why the Test is Performed
This test is commonly ordered to help diagnose and monitor a disorder called
This test also helps confirm
Normal Results
Normal values vary based on your age and the test method used. Adults have an ACE level less than 40 micrograms/L.
Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories. Some labs use different measurements or test different samples. Talk to your doctor about the meaning of your specific test results.
What Abnormal Results Mean
Higher than normal ACE level may be a sign of sarcoidosis. ACE level rises or falls as sarcoidosis worsens or improves.
A higher than normal ACE level may also be seen in several other diseases and disorders, including:
- Cancer of the lymph tissue (
Hodgkin disease) Diabetes
- Liver swelling and inflammation (
hepatitis) due to alcohol use
- Lung disease such as
asthma, cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or tuberculosis
- Kidney disorder called
nephrotic syndrome
- Multiple sclerosis
- Overactive thyroid (
Lower than normal ACE level may indicate:
- Chronic liver disease
- Eating disorder called
anorexia nervosa
- Steroid therapy (usually prednisone)
- Therapy for sarcoidosis
- Underactive thyroid (
Veins and arteries vary in size from one patient to another and from one side of the body to the other. Obtaining a blood sample from some people may be more difficult than from others.
The risks associated with having blood drawn are slight but may include:
- Excessive bleeding
- Fainting or feeling lightheaded
- Hematoma (blood accumulating under the skin)
- Infection (a slight risk any time the skin is broken)

When my brother, who had severe epilepsy, died of a massive seizure at 32, I needed to see a grief counselor. I had been his primary caretaker, and his death hit me hard.
I was fortunate to have access to workplace insurance that included quality mental-health services. It's a benefit I have come to really appreciate.
But many people don't have access to such care.
I was thinking about this as I followed news reports on the shooting rampage at the Washington Navy Yard, in which 12 people were killed, as well as the gunman, and several others were injured. Police records and comments from people who knew the gunman, who had served in the Navy as a full-time reservist, indicate that he may have had mental-health issues.
Now comes the recovery. At least two workers at the Navy Yard reported that they were standing beside people who were gunned down, one shot in the head. One person said that when he got up from a crouched position, there were bullet holes near the top of the wall. I would ask the question, why not me? And I might need someone to help me deal with the trauma or guilt.
I think about the folks who were working at the Navy Yard or other workplaces who have to deal with the aftermath of such tragedies. And while such incidents are rare, it is likely that you are working with people who are struggling with mental illnesses and need help to handle their condition. They aren't likely to go on a shooting spree, but they may drink too much, take illicit drugs or fall into a depression they can't shake.
Although many large and small group insurance plans include services for some mental-health and substance-use illnesses, there are gaps in coverage. About one-third of those who are now covered in the individual market have no coverage for substance-use disorders and nearly 20 percent have no coverage for mental-health cases, including outpatient therapy visits and inpatient crisis intervention and stabilization, according to the Department of Health and Human Services.
But starting next year, this will change for many workers.
Under the Affordable Care Act, insurance plans offered in the new marketplaces will have to cover a core set of services called "essential health benefits." Included on the list of 10 benefits are mental-health and substance-use disorder services, which include behavioral health treatment, counseling and psychotherapy. Specifically, as part of what's considered preventive services, plans will also cover alcohol-misuse screening and counseling, depression screening for adults and adolescents, domestic and interpersonal violence screening for women, and behavioral assessments for children.
Here are two important points about mental-health coverage under Obamacare. First, the coverage for behavioral health services must be generally comparable with coverage for medical and surgical care. Second, plans offered in the marketplace have to cover preventive services without charging customers a co-payment or coinsurance even if you haven't met your yearly deductible. But the services have to be delivered by a network provider.
The Kaiser Family Foundation noted in a report released this month that benefits will be extended in many cases to cover services typically now excluded, such as mental health. Starting next year, health plans won't be able to deny coverage or charge you more because of a pre-existing health condition, including a mental illness.
Think this issue doesn't affect you? Well, take a look at these statistics from MentalHealth.gov:
●One in five adults has experienced a mental-health issue.
●Half of all mental-health disorders first show up before a person turns 14. Three-quarters of mental-health disorders begin before 24. But less than 20 percent of children and adolescents with mental-health problems receive the treatment they need.
●One in 20 Americans lived with a serious mental illness, such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder or major depression.
We are reminded of the seriousness of mental illness when there's an incident such as the one at the Navy Yard. But this issue should matter to workers and employers more often than just at the time of a tragedy.
Open enrollment in the health insurance marketplace begins Oct. 1. Visit HealthCare.gov to learn more about the behavioral health services offered.
The Affordable Care Act will provide one of the largest expansions of mental-health and substance-use disorder coverage in a generation, the Obama administration says. I hope that by expanding access to mental-health coverage, we can get people the help they need, and in the most severe situations prevent tragedies that result in the loss of life.

Again, the nation must grapple with a horrific mass shooting. Again, it occurred in what was thought to be a safe place. And, once again, the specter of mental illness appears to be at the heart of the matter.
From Blacksburg, Va., to Aurora, Colo., to Tucson, Ariz., to Newtown, Conn., to Fort Hood, Texas, to Oak Creek, Wis., mental illness has manifested in gun violence with tragic results. The latest case adds the frightening component of occurring in what was thought to be an extremely secure military location in Washington, D.C., known as the Navy Yard.
The mass slaughter of civilian personnel at such an installation seems incongruous until we consider that Fort Hood was supposed to be a safe location as well.
In the Navy Yard shooting, the death toll stands at 13 people, with others wounded. Among the dead was Aaron Alexis, a 34-year-old contract worker who police say is the shooter. He was killed in a gunbattle with police.
There is still much to be learned about Alexis and what may have prompted him to open fire on a group of civilians.
But what we know so far is that he had been given a general discharge from the Navy Reserve several years ago, that he was an hourly worker for a civilian contractor with clearance to get into the building, that he has a criminal record and that he may have entered the Navy Yard on Monday using a valid ID that belonged to another person.
When examining the nation's mass shootings as a group, it is difficult not to notice the consistent presence of two things: guns and mental illness.
This shooting has, once again, flared the all-too-familiar gun debate as well as the discussions about homeland security. California Sen. Dianne Feinstein has already challenged her colleagues to stop shirking their duty and make significant law changes to cut gun availability. The National Rifle Association has again pointed out that there are laws on the books and new ones would not have prevented this tragedy.
Those issues must be discussed — again. But any serious discussion must also revolve around mental health. Mental illness is far too consistently at the core of these shootings to be ignored.
Such issues should be considered later. Right now, the nation must mourn the dead and wounded.

Months befores AMD Phenom II processors hit retail shelves the marketing department at AMD was in hard at work showing both the media and the enthusiast community and that Phenom II processors were overclocking giants once again. The original AMD Phenom processors were sensitive to temperature changes and once you got sub-zero they often had negative scaling when it came to overclocking. With the vast majoirty of Phenom processors hit a wall at -20C the most extreme overclockers were out of luck. AMD has done a great job at getting the word out that Phenom II is a new and improved processor, but how do these new Phenom II processors overclock with extreme cooling? AMD showed us that the temperature bug is long gone by running a AMD Phenom II X4 processor at 1.95V and at below -190C, but what can we pull off on our own test bench? This weekend we purchased ten pounds of dry ice along with some Acetone to see what we could get a pair of Phenom II socket AM3 processors could do on the ASUS M4A79T Deluxe motherboard.
The AMD Phenom II X4 810 processor has been floating around the test bench for over a month now and I've maxed it out with after market air coolers at 3.82GHz on the ASUS M4A79T Deluxe motherboard and 3.84GHz on the MSI DKA790GX Platinum motherboard. Since both boards feature different CPU sockets and chipsets it is fairly safe to assume that this is the highest overclock that this processor can get with air cooling.
With the test system locked and loaded with dry ice we waited till the temperatures leveled off around -45C on the sensor located next to the CPU socket and fired up the system. Since the goal to to see how high we can get we enabled the 'overvoltage' jumper to get higher voltage options in the ASUS M4A79T Deluxe BIOS. The Phenom II X4 810 is a locked multiplier and has a few limitations (locked Multipliers, locked VID voltage codes, you can adjust voltage only with OFFSET and that is always limited) and is honestly not ideal extreme cooling like dry ice. Since we have the processor and have overclocked it so many times before we wanted to see what it could do anyway.
With the 'overvoltage' jumper enabled the CPU Voltage max went from 1.45V to 1.65V on the Phenom II X4 810 processor, which should help the processor reach a higher overclock than we were able to get on air.
Keeping an HT Link of and CPU/NB frequency ~2200MHz the highest I could get into Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit with any stability at all was 4069MHz. Running with a 313MHz HT reference clock is impressive, but being limited to 1.65V on the CPU Core and having no multipliers above 13x really hurts overclocking.
Dropping the HT Link down to under 1000MHz I was able to push the last couple MHz out of the processor and hit a 313MHz HT reference clock, which puts the AMD Phenom II X4 810 processor at 4095MHz. This is roughly 260MHz higher than our best on air cooling, which is not too impressive for dry ice cooling.
Let's move on to the AMD Phenom II X3 720 Black Edition processor to see if the unlocked processor fairs any better on the same system.

|Led Zeppelin
Page says the band only came back together in honor of Atlantic Records boss Ahmet Ertergun. "Ahmet Ertegun had died, and a foundation was set-up with a show to be played at (London's) O2 Arena," says Page. "We were asked to do 20 minutes… but we did 2 hours and 20 minutes."
Page added, "it was really good to get back with Jason (Bonham) and have a really good crack at it." Jason Bonham played with Led Zeppelin at Atlantic Records 40th Anniversary show in 1988, when five songs were played. Page is full of praise for Bonham Jr. "By my estimation, Jason had the hardest job. The energy he had was phenomenal. Fabulous drummer."
Of the Celebration Day DVD itself, in stores on 19 November, Page says, "there are some seriously powerful moments in this. When we came back to look at it, even we (the band) went, Wow!"
But of any more Led Zeppelin shows, Page is pessimistic. "We're almost five years after the O2 concert. I must say, I thought there might be some other get-together, for some reason or other. But as the years tick by… one year, two years, three years, four years… It doesn't look very likely, does it?"

Mayor Don Wesely today appointed Roger Larson to the Lincoln-Lancaster County Planning Commission to replace Linda Hunter who resigned Friday. The appointment must be approved by the City Council and County Board. Larson would fill out the remainder of Hunter's six-year term, which expires in August 2005.
"We are very fortunate that Roger has agreed to fill this important position," said Mayor Wesely. "He has served this community in so many ways, and his leadership, integrity and expertise will be an asset to the Planning Commission."
After retiring from a 39-year career at KFOR Radio in Lincoln, Larson joined the community relations staff of the National Bank of Commerce, now Wells Fargo, in 1993.
