Obama speech moved indoors
Democratic officials confirm to POLITICO that President Obama's prime time address will be moved indoors to the Time Warner Center.
The Thursday address was scheduled to be at Bank of America stadium — an outdoor venue with more than 70,000 seats. But forecasts are predicting thunderstorms, forcing a last minute change in venue.
(Also on POLITICO: Bill Clinton's 8 digs at Obama)
Campaign officials have been saying all week that the event would go forward "rain or shine" — but reversed themselves Wednesday.
The move has an upside for the campaign, which has reportedly struggled to fill all the seats in the massive outdoor arena. Still, the smaller Time Warner Center only has a capacity of just over 20,000 — meaning that tens of thousands of potential supporters will be denied the opportunity to see Obama speak.
In a statement, the DNC organizing committee CEO Steve Kerrigan said: "The energy and enthusiasm for our convention in Charlotte has been overwhelming and we share the disappointment of over 65,000 people who signed up for community credentials to be there with the President in person. We encourage our community credential holders and Americans across the country to continue to come together with their friends and neighbors to watch and participate in history. The President will speak to these credential holders on a national conference call tomorrow afternoon, and we will work with the campaign to ensure that those unable to attend tomorrow's event will be invited to see the President between now and election day."
(Also on POLITICO: Full coverage of the DNC)
Obama's speech at Bank of America stadium was expected to be a sequel to his 2008 acceptance speech at Invesco Field in Denver, where he accepted the Democratic nomination in front of almost 80,000 supporters. That speech went off without a hitch, despite the risks and uncertainty of holding such an event outdoors.

Nov. 9, 2006
The Lipscomb Lady Bisons first exhibition game was a true learning experience.
In an exhibition game with Harding University Thursday night at Allen Arena the Lady Bisons fell 69-62. It was the first meeting between Lipscomb and Harding in a women's basketball game. Harding is an NCAA Division II school.
The Lady Bisons play Alabama-Huntsville Saturday afternoon at 4:15 in an exhibition game at Allen Arena. The Bisons open the regular season at 2 p.m. against Tusculum.
The Lady Bisons jumped out to an 8-2 lead thanks to 3-point shots by Catie Woods and Julie Martin. The Lady Bisons built a seven-point lead at 12-5 on a tip-in by Tiffany Arnold at 11:32.
Harding, which had hit 31 3-point shots in their last two games, started hitting on the perimeter. Harding closed the gap to 12-10, but Rachel Davis scored on a lay-up at 8:41 for a 14-10 advantage.
Harding shot 29 3-pointers for the game, hitting 13. The Lady Bisons hit 9-of-31.
"We knew they were a 3-point shooting team," Bennett said. "We can't leave 3-point shooters open for threes."
Harding took the lead for the first time at 16-14 as Kinsey Tucker hit a 3-pointer at 7:07. Harding led by as many as 10 points in the first half, taking a 29-19 with 2:39 remaining on a 3-point shot by Kelsea Lyda.
Both teams combined for 33 3-point attempts in the first half. Lipscomb made 4-of-18. Harding hit 7-of-15.
Harding also held the advantage on the boards, winning 22-18 in the first half.
Harding took 31-23 lead into the dressing room at half time. That score would not change until approximately 2 ½ minutes into the second half when Woods hit a 3-pointer to cut the Harding lead to 31-26.
"We had a long dry spell," Lady Bisons coach Frank Bennett said. "That just killed us. We had lay-ups and open shots. We have to have players step up and make plays and not continue that pattern.
"I thought in the second half we had players trying to step up and make plays like Catie Woods, Tiffany Arnold, Penny Jones and Dana Carrigan. But we could never get over the hump."
With 16:36 left in the game Woods connected on a 3-pointer to trim the lead to 32-29. Harding countered with two more points, but Woods hit her third trey at 16:02 to cut the lead to 34-32.
The Lady Bisons kept the game close, cutting Harding's lead to 48-47 on a jumper by Toia McGowan at 6:13.
"What hurt us was when we would cut their lead to one, or tied it, we would have a bad transition and give them an easy shot at the other end," Bennett said. "We have to play the ball after the score."
Harding, continuing to connect on 3-point shots, kept the Lady Bisons from ever taking the lead in the second half. A 3-pointer by Dana Carrigan tied the game for the Lady Bisons at 58-58 with 2:20 left.
Again Harding, which had lost its first two exhibition games in the last minute, refused to fall this time, rebuilding their advantage to seven points at the buzzer.
The Lady Bisons placed three players in double figures. Woods led with 16 points, hitting 5-of-16 shots from the field, 4-of-14 from 3-point range. Carrigan added 12, connecting on 4-of-17 shots, 4-of-13 3-pointers. Julie Martin, who red-shirted last season, chipped in with 11. Martin also made a game-high three steals.
"Julie Martin played really well on both ends of the floor," Bennett said.
Penny Jones grabbed a game-high 12 rebounds as the Lady Bisons held a 41-37 lead.
Lyda scored a game-high 18 points for Harding. Catherine McMenamy added 16.
The Lady Bisons shot 31.1 percent (19-of-61) from the field. Harding shot 38.2 percent from the field (21-55).
"We missed at least 15 lay-ups or power shots," Bennett said. "A lot of them were not that badly contested. We gave them confidence by just hanging around without scoring."

Four Wives – One Man
A film by
Nahid Persson
, Produced by Setareh Persson &
Nahid Persson
Sweden/Iran, 2007, 76 minutes, Color, DVD, Persian, Subtitled
Order No. W09939
From Nahid Persson, the filmmaker of the award-winning
Prostitution Behind the Veil
, comes an intimate portrait of a polygamist family in a rural Iranian village. Persson reveals the intricacies of the relationships between the four wives, their husband, their astoundingly free-spoken mother-in-law and their numerous children. Sometimes humorous and often heartbreaking, this film follows the daily lives of the wives whose situation has turned them into both bitter rivals and co-conspirators against their abusive husband.
Persson's camera unobtrusively and beautifully captures the range of the family's interactions – from peaceful, pastoral scenes of a family picnic, to the temporary chaos caused by a broken faucet in the kitchen, to a furtive, whispered conversation between two wives about the latest beating. The women's work – making bread, weaving carpets, milking and herding the sheep – provide the background to their frank conversations. Avoiding sensationalism and sentimentality, this film provides unique insights into the practice of polygamy and its effect on the women involved.

"Challenge[s] both Western assumptions about Islamic women's oppression and the patriarchal social structures that shape their daily lives. The four women manage their relationships with each other with a keen sense of dignity as well as of the interdependence of their interests and those of their children."
Patricia White
Chair, Film & Media Studies, Swarthmore College
Highly Recommended
for classes in social and gender relations. Anyone interested in women's rights and family life around the world will find this documentary thought provoking … Often funny, other times sorrowful, but at all times heartfelt, Four Wives – One Husband is beautifully shot in vivid cinematography." – EMRO

We just ordered a JBL-Nokia PowerUp speaker last night but we're kicking ourselves now as Verizon has a great deal for the black version. While locations like AT&T and some online retailers are selling the monster speaker for $299, Verizon has it for just $249.99. That $50 savings is nothing to sneeze at as it makes the Nokia accessory a little bit more in reach for those considering it.
The JBL PowerUp features a 10W, output, two 2.5" full range drivers and a sharp looking (and dense) body. But the magic behind the speaker is the onboard Bluetooth 2.1 (EDR), NFC for paring and Qi wireless charging all in one unit That means you can tap-to-pair your phone, stream audio using Bluetooth and then just plop the phone down on top to wireless charge your device.
And since the Lumia 822 and Verizon HTC 8X both have wireless charging, either can use this device (despite Verizon not even listing the JBL as an accessory for either phone, which is a bit silly).
We'll have our mini-review on the PowerUp as soon as it arrives in case you are still on the fence. You can reportedly order this online or even head to your local store, where they may have them in stock for the same as well.

The male pinecone, or microstrobilus, produces the pollen, or male gametes. The cones are covered with fertile scales (modified leaves), each of which bears two pollen sacs. In the spring or early summer, the pollen sacs release their pollen grains, each of which has two air bladders for wind dispersal. During pollination, the pollen grains sift among the scales of the female cone and land directly on the ovules, or unfertilized seeds. Over a two to three year period after fertilization, the woody female pinecone develops. In some species, the cones open at maturity and the seeds are released. In others the cones remain closed for several years until opened by rotting, by food-seeking animals, or by fire. In some pines the scale bearing the nutlike seed may be expanded to form a wing for airborne dispersal.

From hot potting to a 2K sprayer
Freeman France, a subcontractor of Cameron, is based in South of France at Beziers. They specialize in coating large or oversized pipes used in petroleum pumping plants. The automatic painting applications are done in Cameron's facility. Freeman paints pipes in very different sizes. In the past this was done via a manual application (also called hot potting).
The same viscosity all year long
The local Graco distributor, JJB, suggested that Freeman use a 2-component fixed ratio Graco XP70 4:1 unit to save paint and solvent, to secure mixing and avoid handling. The pot-life of the material is 1 hour at 20°C. After this time, the material manufacturer advises that the mixed material should not be handled by equipment. The relative long pot life means that the mix manifold can be kept on the unit which provides more flexibility.
The viscous base is maintained at a constant temperature of 30°C, which enables the same viscosity all year long. The large container of 76 l provides the painter with high autonomy.
Reduced labour costs & savings on paint and solvent
"The consistency in coating quality is impressive. Now, we no longer have to deal with temperature impact on viscosity throughout the year and diluting by hand, resulting in various final finishes." says Mr. David Serre, the paint manager.
The new application has enabled Freeman France to save 30% of paint and 50% of solvent volumes. The automatic preparation of 2-component paint also reduces labour cost. A return on investment is expected after about 1 year.

Always In Front Mico Safety Leash
From Best: "The Always In Front Mico Leash is designed to provide greater safety and convenience. The design is in response to multiple severe accidents attributed to conventional leashes where riders have been dragged backwards. Studies indicate 90% of riders never unhook so Best designed their new leash to attach to the front of your harness. This new pin-less safety system is both easy to reach and activate, plus you no longer have a long leash getting in the way."
I'm looking forward to trying this but concerned about no elastic... Anyone used anything like this yet?

Many educators say quality early childhood education programs give young children a strong foundation for kindergarten and beyond.
But what does a high-quality preschool program look like? Early childhood education researchers point to Tulsa, Okla., as a school system that gets it right. NPR's education team went to Tulsa to find out what help sets the city's preschool program apart. You can read more about what they found — and visit a Tulsa preschool classroom, here.
From NPR News, this is ALL THINGS CONSIDERED. I'm Melissa Block.
And I'm Audie Cornish.
The federal government spends almost $8 billion a year on preschool programs. States spend billions more, mostly on low-income four-year-olds. But it's hard to say what's working and what's not. President Obama has long been a champion of early childhood education. On talking about preschool, he often uses the same two words: high quality. Take this line from this year's State of the Union Address.
PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA: Research shows that one of the best investments we can make in a child's life is high quality early education.
CORNISH: But what does high quality mean? Claudio Sanchez with NPR's education team went in search of an answer and found one in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
CLAUDIO SANCHEZ, BYLINE: At 7:35 A.M., three yellow school buses drive up to Porter Early Childhood Center. Diesel fumes cling to the cold morning air.
SANCHEZ: The doors swing open. A flock of four and five-year-olds spill onto a walkway leading up to the school's main entrance.
TRACY JONES: Morning, Takila(ph). Who's the note for, your teacher?
TAKILA: Yes.
JONES: Well, happy birthday.
SANCHEZ: Tracy Jones, the school's secretary, greets them - some still groggy from the 45-minute ride. Jones asks the bus drivers to make sure no one's been left asleep in the back of their buses.
JONES: We deep?
UNIDENTIFIED WOMAN: Yep.
SANCHEZ: Past the school's steel double doors, Howard Wible, the principal, is waiting in the gymnasium.
HOWARD WIBLE: Good morning, Porter ECDC students. Let's all stand up for...
SANCHEZ: An affable, burly man in his late 50s, Wible is known to dress up as Winnie the Pooh on special occasions. But today, he's just happy to lead the children in a few stretching exercises and a song.
SANCHEZ: Wible quiets kids down and sends them off with a message.
WIBLE: Let's have a wonderful day. Listen to your teachers. Do what she tells you to do. Be kind to everyone.
SANCHEZ: Early childhood experts who've studied Tulsa's pre-school program say this is what high quality looks and feels like, which is why we're here, to see for ourselves.
SANCHEZ: It's now 8:30, time for breakfast.
UNIDENTIFIED CHILD: I like macaroni and cheese. And I would like it for dinner, too.
SANCHEZ: No such luck for this four-year-old. He'll have to settle for toast, scrambled eggs, potatoes, milk and cereal. Next stop, teacher Niki Jones' classroom.
NIKI JONES: OK. Let's first start...
SANCHEZ: Jones, 32, has only been teaching for a couple of years. She's firm yet gentle as she rounds up her kids and sits them on a big, shaggy rug.
JONES: Let's first start with our poem that we started practicing on Monday.
SANCHEZ: It's now just past 10 A.M. and Jones has moved on to one of the more interesting features of the Tulsa preschool program: Letting kindergartners read to preschoolers. All eyes turn to a five-year-old named Madison.
MADISON: (Reading) "The Foot Book." Left foot, left foot, right foot, right. Feet in the morning. Feet at night.
SANCHEZ: Madison is a hit.
UNIDENTIFIED CHILDREN: Hip-hip, hooray.
JONES: Thank you, Madison, for coming to read to us today.
MADISON: You're welcome.
JONES: See you next Wednesday.
All right, I'm going to draw your a sticker and you're going to tell me where you're going to go play first today.
SANCHEZ: Now, this is what four year olds live for: Playtime. They have several options: computers; the tiny kitchen tucked in a corner of the room; something called The Fort, which doubles as the art center or, as kids refer to it, where all the paints are.
As far as Jones is concerned, play is at the heart of the preschool experience.
JONES: I try to have an hour and a half to two hours of uninterrupted play. The play is open-ended so we put out objects that aren't task-oriented. That way they aren't limited to what they can do with them. So it builds problem-solving, imagination, creativity - things like that.
SANCHEZ: That explains the kids' artwork hanging from the ceiling and plastered on the walls. Square cows, a snowman with rabbit ears, lots of stick figures, hearts and squiggly lines, really.
Children roam freely. Jones hovers, constantly assessing everything they do.
JONES: They're having to collaborate in a developmental phase where they're still very ego-centric. They're very all about themselves.
SANCHEZ: Jones is watchful of how kids resolve disputes, their vocabulary, their familiarity with numbers. The role of the teacher in all this, researchers say, is the foundation of a high quality preschool program.
DEBORAH PHILLIPS: I've been studying child care my whole life.
SANCHEZ: Deborah Phillips is a developmental psychologist and professor at Georgetown University.
PHILLIPS: What you're going to look for is a teacher who knows how to instruct children in pre-literacy skills, pre-math skills, who gets down on the child's level when they're talking to them and is respectful towards them.
SANCHEZ: Phillips was the lead researcher in an exhaustive study of the Tulsa program. For seven months she and her team observed teachers in dozens of classrooms. She found four basic reasons why the Tulsa program is of such high quality. First, it has a rich curriculum that revolves around an abundance of rich play, like we've been hearing. Second, it's well-funded at about $7,500 per child. Third, there's one teacher for every 10 children. And fourth, all the teachers are highly qualified.
Niki Jones, for example, is a few credits shy of her masters degree and has already been accepted in a doctorate program. Tulsa requires at least a bachelor's degree. Teachers must be fully certified in early childhood education. And once they're hired, they get training once a month.
JONES: You want a match to mother?
SANCHEZ: Jones is brimming with ideas and strategies rooted in research and good pedagogy.
JONES: If I give them pine cones and acorns and then a projector that they can manipulate the light on, well, then they have shadows. Then they have color blending with glass beads. They have so many things they can experience that I can't put into a lesson.
SANCHEZ: So what looks like an arts project - with acorns, pine cones and beads - is also a stealth math lesson. Jones says her kids love to count, add and subtract with little or no direct instruction. But does this kind of program have lasting benefits? That is, after all, the one big argument against increased funding for preschool, that kids are no better off as they move up in grade.
PHILLIPS: There is evidence of lasting impacts in Tulsa.
SANCHEZ: At least up through third grade, says researcher Deborah Phillips.
PHILLIPS: The children who went through Tulsa preschool program, as compared to their peers who did not, are doing better in math, in particular. And that's especially true for boys and especially true for the lower income children.
SANCHEZ: Niki Jones says preschool is all about building that lasting foundation, although it's not easy for most four-year-olds.
JONES: You're asking kids to do things they've never done before. They've never been in school before. They've never raised their hand and stood up and given an answer before. So it's scary to them.
SANCHEZ: They're scared to fail, says Jones. Wait a minute. These are four year olds. They're scared to fail?
JONES: They've seen failure and they've already seen scary things. And so they are.
SANCHEZ: Jones says many of these children are growing up with only one parent in Tulsa's toughest neighborhoods; poverty and failure are all around them.
JONES: Without the family connection, we wouldn't know if so-and-so didn't have dinner or if so-and-so's mom got put in jail last night because parents aren't going to tell you that, if they don't trust you. That's embarrassing.
SANCHEZ: Phillips agrees. That trust is really important for a teacher to be able to connect with kids.
PHILLIPS: But also the extent to which she provides strong emotional and social support for the children makes them feel safe, protected, loved, valued.
SANCHEZ: And if they get that...
PHILLIPS: They're motivated. They love school. You're setting children along a much sturdier, promising pathway into their futures.
SANCHEZ: That's what Tulsa's preschool program is doing, says Phillips. That's why it's a model for the nation.
PHILLIPS: If it can happen in Oklahoma, right, in theory, it can happen everywhere.
SANCHEZ: And with some 30 states now embarked on preschool expansion, someday soon Tulsa could be the rule not the exception.

"Fightcard Entertainment: Final Conflict" Results And Recap
Fightcard Entertainment put on their twenty-eighth show last night and it was another sold out venue. Over 600 fans were in attendance at Joe's Sports Bar in Chicago to watch the action.
The first fight of the night saw Aaron Beyers take on Jacob Brewick. It was only one of two fights that went the distance but had many entertaining spots through out. Brewick took Beyers down with ease numerous times through out the fifteen minute affair much the crowds approval. Beyers would answer with some good reversals and ground and pound, but in the end Brewick did more damage and won a judges decision victory 29-28.
Chris Garcia showed his impressive jiu jitsu skills against Phil Hunter in the second fight of the night. After some quick jabs by Hunter, Garcia shot for a takedown but left his neck exposed. Hunter grabbed a hold of hit, but could not tighten the choke enough before Garcia popped his head out. Garcia quickly passed to side control before transitioning to an arm bar. Hunter tried to escape, but Garcia kept rolling with him and locked in a reverse triangle. Again Hunter tried to escape and Garcia kept on him, this time catching him in a fight ending kimura submission.
The third fight of the evening saw Manny Camacho take on Steven Kick. In the first two rounds Kick attempted many takedowns and strikes, but Camacho was very elusive and had a very good sprawl. Camacho utilized a great counter-striking game plan that threw Kick off of his game. By the start of the third round, Kick had been mentally broken and Camacho took the fight down and forced the referee to stop it after unloading eight unanswered punches.
The final fight before the first intermission saw Joe Zuniga take on LaRoyce Tankston. Tankston used a series of combos through out the first two rounds to control the action. Many jab, jab, kick, clinch, takedown or similar variations were used. Zuniga had some good strikes of his own, but Tankston just shrugged them off like they were nothing. In the third round Zuniga got a takedown of his own and ended up in full mount. Several shots forced Tankston to give up his back and Zuniga continued the assault trying to secure a rear naked choke. Unfortunately time was not on Zuniga's side and Tankston would go on to win the judges' decision 29-28.
There were originally scheduled to be a total of five fights for the team challenge. Pac MMA had to forfeit their 135lb fight due to several fighters being unable to participate for various reason. This left only four fights in the team challenge and gave Team No Comment a 1-0 lead before the action started.
Pedro Velasco and Johny Torres delivered what the fans wanted to see: a knockout. After a very brief exchange on the feet, Torres took the fight to the ground. However Velasco quickly stood right back up and grabbed a hold of Torres's neck. Torres tried to slam his way out of the standing guillotine, but it just put the choke in tighter. Velasco kept shifting his position to try and finish the fight with the choke, but Torres was relentless with his punches and hip movements. Finally in a last ditch effort, Torres summersaults to escape the choke and does. Both fighters quickly make it back to their feet and Torres unloads a massive high kick that knocks Velasco out cold. Torres's victory ties up the team challenge 1-1.
After the amazing knockout of the first fight, Luis Robles and Omar Diaz knew the crowd was excited. And both fighters were very anxious themselves as they were pacing back and forth before the start of the fight. Both fighters stood toe-to-toe swinging at each other not doing much damage. Diaz shot in for a takedown, but Robles grabbed a guillotine choke. Robles quickly changes his grip and has an arm in guillotine choke and pulls guard slamming Diaz on his head. Diaz quickly taps as the force of the choke and slam dislocated his shoulder. Team No Comment is now up 2-1.
Needing only one victory to secure the team championship, Team No Comment fighter Percy Hicks wanted to deliver that victory. In his was stood Team Pac MMA's Chris Sizemore. Hicks opened the fight with a big right hand that forced Sizemore to shoot in for a takedown. At this point a mouth guard falls out, but it is unclear who it belongs to. Hicks quickly pushed Sizemore into the cage and both fighters were looking for a takedown. Sizemore succeeded and landed in side control. Sizemore started throwing hammer fists and then was able to trap Hick's arm in a crucifix position. Several shots were thrown and Hicks was in trouble. The ref calls a timeout and Sizemore thinks he won the fight. Instead the ref stopped the action because Sizemore was utilizing forearm blows (illegal in amateur bouts) and gave Hicks back his mouth guard. A quick reset and the fight was back underway. Hicks went straight for Sizemore, but Sizemore sidestepped and then landed a massive flying knee sending Hicks to the canvas ending the fight. Hicks remained on the canvas for several seconds unaware of what had just happened. Team Pac MMA has tied the team competition now 2-2.
In the final battle for which team would rein supreme, Quincy Smith took on Danny Morales. The first round, both fighters were a little hesitant to try and unload anything as they respected each other's power. Morales landed more solid shots with some good combos earning him the first round. At the start of the second round, both fighters went to the center and threw a huge right hand. Both fighters went down hurt, but Morales recovers quickly and jumps at the situation. Morales landed four punches and the referee stopped the action. Smith was holding his eye and yelling that he couldn't see. The crowd gets very angry and calls Morales a cheater and the referee pulls all the judges to discuss what the official ruling should be. After a deliberation, the official ruling was Morales won a technical knock out victory due to Smith's inability to continue on with the fight. The crowd really started booing at this point and Morales in his post fight interview said that it was the referee's job to ensure what was happening and that he wasn't a cheater. The win earned Team Pac MMA the team challenge.
Highlighting some women's mma, Ginger Galardo took on A.J. McAvoy. The start of the action saw Galardo quickly take McAvoy to the ground. After a bit of posturing, Galardo was in full mount, but McAvoy just used strength to push up and out of the position. Once back on their feet, McAvoy showcased her superior striking skills landing several 1-2 combos over and over. McAvoy faked a takedown only to land a devastating combo that hurt Galardo. While still standing, McAvoy quickly unloaded several solid shots forcing the referee stoppage.
The co-main event was a number one contenders match for the FCE middleweight title. Mickey Martin and Luke Austin both knew what was on the line and wanted to send a message to current middleweight champion Jermey Godinia. Austin started the fight with a big right hand and then clinched. Martin started peppering Austin's body while in the clinch and was able to get separation. Austin again with a big punch only this time it hurts Martin and throws him off balance. Austin quickly grabs a guillotine choke and has it in tight. Martin tried to punch his way out, but couldn't and tapped.
The main event saw Christian Reynoso defend his FCE featherweight belt against Mike Long. The first round saw Reynoso take Long down multiple times. Long tried to lock in submissions, but Reynoso was able to either power his way out or punch his way out of the attempts. In the second round Long opened up with a big flying knee as Reynoso was shooting for a takedown. Reynoso held on and sort of got it but it was more like Long just sat down. Long shifted his hips to attempt more submissions, but Reynoso was relentless with the punches and hammer fists. Several shots landed to the back of the head and Reynoso was warned. Long tried to roll to escape, but Reynoso went with him and was able to secure Long's back. Reynoso worked to get a rear naked choke in while at the same time locked in a body triangle. Reynoso arches as much as he can and Long was forced to tap out.
Overall the fans left more than happy after a long night of action. MMA Recap, Dos Lunas Tequilla and Team Finisher MMA Clothing were all sponsoring the event. Fightcard Entertainment will be back at Joe's Sports Bar on January 21 for "Counter Strike" which will be the first hybrid MMA and Kickboxing event under the Fightcard banner. Stay tuned to MMA Recap for videos of some of the night's fights.

The death of a woman from the town was alcohol-related, the Oxfordshire Coroners' Court concluded.
Kathryn Mather, 41, was found dead in her bath in her Lyneham Road home on December 23 by a friend. She had a level of alcohol in her blood high enough to kill, said Oxfordshire coroner Darren Salter.
There was no evidence of drowning, he added.
The inquest heard evidence that Ms Mather had a history of excessive alcohol consumption, and that her partner of six years had committed suicide in 2012.
She had been suffered from anxiety and depression.

It is essentially the beginning of the free-agent market, but for the New York Mets it is already nearing last call.
Frankly, I don't see Mets GM Sandy Alderson doing anything of substance this winter. He reportedly is considering pitcher Bronson Arroyo and shortstop Rafael Furcal, both of whom are 36.
Both of whom won't be in it for the long haul for the Mets.
Arroyo has a track record of compiling innings, which is paramount, but is said to want three years. Eventually he will break down. If I am giving three years to a pitcher in this market, I would have rather gambled on Phil Hughes – who got those three years from the small market Twins – who is 27.
With Matt Harvey out until 2015 – and there are no assurances of what he'll be when he returns – Hughes was potentially a better building block than Arroyo.
Initially, I liked the idea of Arroyo, and still do, but not for three years. Two years at the most. Arroyo made over $16 million last year in Cincinnati – another small market team – and won't be taking a pay cut.
He was 14-12 last season pitching behind an offense and bullpen superior to that of the Mets. What can the Mets reasonably expect from him?
Meanwhile, Furcal made $7 million last year for not playing with St. Louis because of Tommy John surgery. After the season ended Alderson said he didn't want an injury reclamation project, which clearly defines Furcal.
The best shortstop option for the Mets defensively, and for his offensive style in Citi Field, was Stephen Drew, who was out of their price range. However, he would have been a key piece to build around.
Jhonny Peralta was also too expensive and came with the black cloud of a PED suspension.
If the Mets sign Furcal, they will be looking to replace him next winter. If that is the case, I'd be more inclined to give Ruben Tejada another chance.
Arroyo and Furcal are the latest names linked to the Mets, and they are clearly filler for 2014. That's what you want?
One by one the better names in the market will be scooped up, and not by the Mets.
More and more, I see this being a barren winter for the Mets. Then again, there was Chris Young.

Superman (1978)
Curt Swan was an American comic book artist, best know for drawing 'Superman' during the Silver Age of American Comic Books. He was born Douglas Curtis Swan into a family of Swedish origins. He fulfilled his military service in Europe during World War II, where he was mainly an artist for Stars and Stripes Magazine. Back in civil life, he found employment with DC Comics in 1945. At first, he was assigned as a ghost artist on series such as 'The Boy Commandos', 'Tommy Tomorrow' and 'Gangbusters'.
He drew his first 'Superman' story in 1948 and remained associated with the characer until the mid 1980s. He was also involved in spin-off titles like 'Superboy', alternating on the art with John Sikela from 1949, and 'Superman's Pal, Jimmy Olsen' from 1954. He also drew the 'Superman' daily newspaper strip between 1956 and 1960, and co-created several of the series' villains. Swan's 'Superman' showed great affinity for drawing real people, with a believable variety of expressions and in a believable variety of real-life situations.
Following his departure from the "Man of Steel" in the 1980s, Swan continued to do occasional jobs for DC, such as an 'Aquaman' limited series. He also made illustrations for Penthouse Comix in the 1990s. He spent his final years in Wilton, Connecticut, where he passed away in 1996.

CAMARILLO, Calif. - Porn star August Ames was found dead in her home Tuesday, after reportedly hanging herself.
She was pronounced dead at the scene, and there was no indication of foul play according to The Blast.
The 23-year-old Beauty and the Beast XXX: An Erotic Fairy Tale Parody star was the target of online bullying after announcing she wouldn't have sex with a man who had participated in same-sex porn films for work.
"Do agents really not care about who they're representing?" she Tweeted December 3.
Sources close to Ames tell The Blast she had suffered from long-term depression, and they believe online trolls may have contributed to her decision to take her own life.
Born in Canada, August appeared in over 270 films.
Police are investigating her death.

NEW YORK -- With his wife by his side, New York mayoral candidate and former congressman Anthony Weiner said Tuesday that some of the sexually explicit online exchanges that were published by a gossip website happened after his resignation from the U.S. House in 2011.
"Some of these things happened before my resignation, some happened after," Weiner said at a hastily organized press conference in New York, where he also pushed back when asked if the latest revelation would prompt him to drop out of the race.
His remarks came hours after screenshots of sexually charged conversations and photographs appeared on a gossip website which alleged the communications were between Weiner and a young woman last summer.
Weiner resigned his House seat in New York in 2011 after admitting to sending lewd photographs and images to multiple women.
In an extraordinary move, Weiner's wife, Huma Abedin, appeared beside her husband Tuesday and made brief remarks backing him.
"What I want to say is I love him, I have forgiven him, I believe in him, and as I have said from the beginning, we are moving forward," said Abedin, a top adviser to Hillary Clinton, adding that Weiner had made some "horrible mistakes, both before he resigned from Congress, and after."
Weiner resisted calls from some of his rivals for the Democratic mayoral nomination to give up his bid, adding, "I'm sure many of my opponents would like me to drop out of the race."
The New York chapter of the National Organization for Woman called on Weiner to withdraw from the race following his press conference.
"As if we didn't already have enough evidence of Anthony Weiner's utter lack of judgment, impulse control and honesty, these latest revelations show the degree to which his candidacy distracts us from the important business of choosing the next leader of New York City," Sonia Ossorio, the president of the group, wrote in a statement.
The editorial board of the New York Times followed suit, writing "At some point, the full story of Anthony Weiner and his sexual relationships and texting habits will finally be told. In the meantime, the serially evasive Mr. Weiner should take his marital troubles and personal compulsions out of the public eye, away from cameras, off the Web and out of the race for mayor of New York City."
Earlier in the day, Weiner released a statement admitting that some of the conversations and photos that appeared on the website TheDirty.com were his.
"While some things that have been posted today are true and some are not, there is no question that what I did was wrong," Weiner said.
In the statement, Weiner pointed to previous comments he made around the time he announced his bid for New York City mayor, in which he said it was possible for more photos to come out as he made a re-entry into politics.
"I said that other texts and photos were likely to come out, and today they have," he said Tuesday.
The exchanges that surfaced Tuesday were revealed about a year after they allegedly took place and in the middle of Weiner's Democratic primary campaign for New York mayor.
"This behavior is behind me. I've apologized to Huma and am grateful that she has worked through these issues with me and for her forgiveness," he said.
In facing reporters, Weiner was supported by his wife, who in emotional comments discussed the couple's struggles to save their marriage.
"I made the decision that it was worth staying in this marriage," she said. "That was a decision I made for me, for our son, and for our family."
"This was the first time we heard his wife, Huma Abedin, speak at a press conference, but also speak about these issues," CNN Chief Congressional Correspondent Dana Bash said. "This wasn't just a scene of a wife standing by her political man. This was a wife coming up to the cameras, coming up to the microphones, and talking, which was frankly extraordinary. She is somebody who isn't just a wife. She is very politically savvy."
"Maybe most importantly, she learned at the knee of Hillary Clinton, somebody who most famously stood by her man politically. And so she's following in those footsteps," Bash continued.
Weiner's public remarks came after chat messages purporting to be from Weiner were published on the website TheDirty.com. The post cited a "solid" source alleging Weiner engaged in lewd online conversations with her, and reproduced lengthy chats that were sexual in nature.
The woman, 22, says Weiner vowed to secure her a place on a panel hosted by Politico, as well as purchase a condominium for her in Chicago.
"I just want people to really know he's lying when he acts like he has changed," the unnamed woman told TheDirty.
In one instance, an explicit photo was published that the site claimed Weiner sent to the woman online. The name Weiner used online was "Carlos Danger," according to TheDirty.com
Weiner, who represented parts of Brooklyn and Queens, resigned from Congress in 2011 after admitting to sending lewd photographs to multiple women online. At first he hedged on whether the photos were of him, including in an interview with CNN's Wolf Blitzer.
"It certainly doesn't look familiar to me, but I don't want to say with certitude to you something that I don't know to be the certain truth," Weiner said at the time.
After more reports of online exchanges with other women surfaced, fellow Democrats encouraged Weiner to resign, which he ultimately did after confessing to the indiscretions.
In the run-up to his mayoral bid, which he launched in May, he said more photos could emerge.
"If reporters want to go and try to find more, I can't say they're not going to be able to find another picture, find another person who may want to come out on their own," he told RNN Television. "But I'm not going to contribute to that. The basics of the story are not going to change. It's behind me. It was a huge mistake."
Polls taken over the past several weeks have shown Weiner either leading his closest rival for the Democratic mayoral nomination, City Council Speaker Christine Quinn, or trailing her in second place.

Don't you just hate that word "stuff?" What is stuff? It is what I put in my computer bag to go to Salt Lake City and the Family History Library. You Go Genealogy Girl #2 supposedly had an identical bag, only blue and mine is red. Once there, she realized that hers was much smaller. She definitely has NOT learned how to consolidate, so ended up putting her "stuff" into one of her suitcases on wheels.
Actually you see everything imaginable in line at the front door of the library as well as inside. If you are lugging around a laptop, plus supplies and notes or notebooks, it is a good idea to wheel it in. Girl #2 wasn't the only one there with a suitcase!
Let's take a peak at what was inside my rolling computer bag. Of course, my laptop was in it. Along with that I had the power cord and the computer lock, both necessary. You won't need an extender to your power cord in the library, but you may in your hotel room depending upon how far you are from a plug in. Girl #2 decided to use the desk and I used the round table in our room. She had a power outlet close by, but I had to use my extender cord.
In the pocket area of my bag I packed 3x5 cards on which I jotted down call numbers of books or micofilm numbers. You are allowed five of each at a time (even though people sometimes take more books to their tables). Having five numbers on the card helps in keeping pace with the retrieval process.
I also had a staple puller, small stapler, pens (red, blue, black) labeled with my name and a mechanical pencil also labeled with my name, plus a highlighter. Nobody took any from my work site, but Girl #2 has been known to snatch pens from me in a "quick-use" and then they don't get back ... yes you do!! Thus the names on them. I took post-it notes and never used them. If you take them, do not mark books with them as they leave a residue that can be damaging to the pages. If you take a small stapler, be sure to take some staples!
Girl #2 uses a mouse and mouse pad at all times with her laptop. I used mine only in the hotel room. If you are a cordless mouse user, be sure you have replacement batteries in your bag. I did and had to use one.
Other sundry items included hand sanitizer and hand lotion, both of which I used extensively. In fact, first thing each morning I took both out of my bag and had them by my computer. It is dry in Salt Lake City, especially if you are from points east. Be sure you pack some lip balm. I also took a small magnifying glass, but never used it. The eyes are still pretty good. Oh yes, I took business cards and did hand them to people we met. Girl #2 borrowed from me as she forgot hers. I have a small, round plastic pill box in which I put allergy and pain meds, just in case. Girl #2 had spare eye glasses in her bag ... I know because her bag accidentally fell over on one pair and she had to put the lenses back in them.
In another area of my computer bag I had a few file folders. These came in very handy for sorting out copies and keeping track of them. I also had a spiral notebook in which I made notes. In addition I made notes to myself on my laptop.
Speaking of the laptop, be sure that your laptop is updated with your family files and other items you may need. You need know the passwords to subscription sites if you are checking them while in the library. There is free Internet access in the rooms at the Plaza. Girl #2 was bumped off frequently, but I was never bumped off. You can access Internet from any location in the library, allowing you to check e-mails, the local newspapers, your bank account, get into your subscription accounts and also check blogs (ours in particular!).
Each evening before going to bed, we cleaned out our computer bags, making sure we had everything needed for the next day, including the file folders and all my pens and pencil. I used a sweater mainly to mark my chair so I could spot it. Each morning all I had to do was put a fresh jug of water into the computer bag, insert the laptop, zip up and grab my sweater and little pouch I slung over my shoulder for my cash, library photocopy card and room key card. Usually I had to wait for Girl #2 to stuff more into her suitcase.
Then we were ready to begin our brief wait for the library to open, watching genealogists in their array of bags and attire line up at the door. We met great genealogists while we waited. Hope they thought we were great also!

How is your week so far?
Mine has been great, I am finally feeling relaxed and got the opportunity to both go shopping and sightseeing! Even though I've seen everything about hundred times, I love seeing it again and I find really interesting that every year there is something else that draws my attention. The weather was really bad the past few days but today felt like Summer and it will be like this the whole week, can't wait to explore more:)
I always struggle finding jeans that will fit me as most of the times even the smallest size is big for me, but likely I've found the perfect pair for me and of course I had to buy them! Not only they feet perfectly but I also love the colour and that they are high waisted. This flowy top is one of my favourites for Spring and Summer, as it is so lightweight and adds a Summery vibe to every outfit!
I am wearing:
Top - Shout
Jeans - Pull&Bear (similar ones)
Sneakers - H&M
Bag - Primark
Watch - D&G
Bracelets - Born Pretty & Guess
Ring - Primark

HOW TO: Smooth Curls with the Crimson Fade Flat Iron
One of the HOTTEST tools at the HOT TOOLS booth at the Premiere Show in Orlando, Florida, was the Crimson Fade Flat iron.
"It was originally designed to be just a great, light weight, low profile, iron," says Hot Tools Platform artist Daniel Keane. "There is this totally wonderful accidental engineering design that allows salon professionals an opportunity to create smooth, shiny curls."
Keane is referring to the ribs along the sides of the iron, originally placed to disperse the heat. "They have an added benefit," he says. "The hair goes into the ribs which combs the hair while styling."
In this demo, Keane shows how the iron works, and shares why he uses triangular sections.

|Tied over the top of the head
|Classic veil positioning..
My veil was my favorite part of my whole wedding outfit!! It was cathedral length with little sparkles and lace and just made me feel so amazing! :) x x
Send me a pic x
If you're gonna do a veil, longer than shoulder length or not at all. That just looks like you've run out of material. You're (hopefully) only a bride once, so do it up I say! Tastefully of course. Vote 1 for veil! :) x M
I think you should definitely get a veil! I really like the third one on the black and white veil positioning picture, but I would just go try some on to see what feels right to you :)
I love tulle and lace veil. An hairdo with little rosebuds or little flowers is special too... Some are amazing, specially for a spring-wedding :)
I'll send a pic.
Laura from Milano
I vote YES to veil but:
keep it simple so no lace and no to elaborate trims.
As to lenght, I would say fingertips!
My veil will be a Chapel lenght, definitely I don't like the shoulder, elbow and fingertip lenght.
At firts I didn't want to wear a veil at all, every time I put it on at fittings I saw myself as a "Madonna dell'Arco".
I decided to do it anyway, 'cause I think I would regret it if I'm not wearing it on my wedding day....
Did you choose it yours?!
I think it completely depends on the venue, the dress & the bride! My twin sister got married in a huge cathedral and had a veil (my mom's) and I got married in the Archbishop's Palace in Kent which is a registry office and with no veil. Identical twins, but totally different styles of wedding. Vive la difference! xoxo
Veil for sure - so pretty. Mine was fingertip length, and my little girls Isabella and Poppy LOVE playing princesses with it....it does have an after life too - also great fun passing it around to potential brides during the wedding and taking pics of them - frightens the hell out of their boyfriends....very funny x
Veil for sure - mine was fingertip length and I used the lace from my dress as the head piece bit - also great fun to attach to your friends heads during the wedding for photo ops - there were a few concerned looks from boyfriends when I did this, but have great pics! They also have an afterlife - my little girls Poppy and Isabella love pretending to be princesses in it - enjoy xx
I loved my veil, my dress was floor length and the veil clipped on the back of my hair and was a full length train, appliqued with antique lace. Designed it myself and even 13 years on I wouldnt change it one bit!
Just wondering if you'll be covering clothes for wedding guests in your wedding Wednesdays? I'm going to one soon and hoping for some inspiration!
I love Carolyn Bessette's veil!

A new border architecture has emerged that seeks to respond effectively to the seemingly competing demands of facilitating mobility while better managing the risks associated with cross-border travel (terrorism, organized crime, and the entry of unwanted migrants). Information and technology are the centerpieces of this new architecture. This research explores the increased collection and sharing of traveler and other data, expanded use of interoperable information databases, and the new border-management technologies and infrastructure used at ports of entry and beyond.
Despite benefits of sharing commercial, government, or personal information for law enforcement and intelligence purposes, U.S. and EU officials have toiled to find a satisfactory legal framework to do so. This report describes and analyzes possible legal, privacy, and data-protection frameworks for information-sharing agreements relating to human mobility.
This report, the product of two workshops held on border management in Belgium and Texas, addresses three arenas of significant change shared by the United States and the European Union: 1) new government organizations for controlling borders; 2) the use of information technology to secure borders; and 3) visa‐free travel policies.
The culminating report of the Independent Task Force on Immigration and America's Future seeks to design a new and simplified immigration regime that averts illegal immigration, and at the same time, harnesses the benefits of immigration for the future.
This report examines how counterterrorism strategy relates to border security and immigration reform, and how terrorist mobility should be countered. The author argues that terrorist mobility comprises a set of problems distinct from the challenges of managing large-scale global migration.
This report evaluates the United States Visitor and immigrant Status Indicator Technology (US-VISIT) program within the broader contexts of national and homeland security as well as immigration law enforcement and policymaking. In doing so, the author provides constructive criticism along with a framework for rethinking US-VISIT's goal priorities, investment needs, and deadline expectations.
This report examines the transfer of immigration functions from the former Immigration and Naturalization Service to the newly established Department of Homeland Security and offers an analysis of the Department's progress in its first year of existence toward accomplishing the two purposes for which it was created: (1) to ensure that immigration regulation and control enhances national security; and (2) to improve the performance of both the service and enforcement sides of the immigration system by allocating their respective functions to separate units within DHS.
The events that unfolded in the U.S. on September 11 generated a renewed sense of urgency over border management. Bilateral Smart Border agreements were reached between the U.S. and Canada as well as the U.S. and Mexico in December 2001 and March 2002. This report tracks the implementation of these border accords and seeks to evaluate their effectiveness.
On November 25, 2002, Congress passed the Homeland Security Act, which effectively overhauled the former Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS) and called for a massive reorganization of immigration functions under the newly formed Department of Homeland Security (DHS).This report outlines key changes incurred, highlights points of concern and offers policy recommendations aimed at remedying some of these concerns.

"Power Tools" are more in-depth explorations/explanations of a wide variety of topics that may be of use to Friends' meetings, large and small, new and old. Their purpose is not just to provide "how to" guidance, but to make explicit the spiritual Truth underlying all that we do within the Quaker way. Reaffirming and intentionally trying to live into this underlying spiritual reality is the strength and attraction of the Religious Society of Friends.
The resources in this section are primarily about the roots of our faith and practice in our life together with each other and God came to be. The New Meetings Project, with editing and annotations by Marty Grundy, compiled it.
Most of these resources are available at Quaker Books of FGC. They are also a good source of second hand copies of these materials, if new ones are not available.
A Living Faith: An Historical Study of Quaker Beliefs by Wilmer A. Cooper (FUP 1990) – a theological and historical exploration of Quaker beliefs from its earliest days to the present. Includes chapters on the Quaker view of God, Christ, human nature, and the church, as well as chapters on the sacraments, testimonies, Quaker service, and the future. Includes study guide and questions.
Essays on the Quaker Vision of Gospel Order by Lloyd Lee Wilson (QuakerPress of FGC 2002) – thoughtful essays addressing aspects of Quaker faith and practice, articulating the ways in which Gospel Order has shaped lives and beliefs of Friends. Provides both an historical perspective and a contemporary understanding of meetings for worship and business, spiritual gifts, leadings, and ministry. Excellent material for group discussion or adult or high school First Day School classes.
Gospel Order: A Quaker Understanding of Faithful Church Community by Sandra L. Cronk (PHP #297) 1991 – explores the communal aspects of gospel order as the foundation of meeting community life. Material for group discussion or adult First Day School classes.
On Living with a Concern for Gospel Ministry by Brian Drayton (Quaker Press of FGC and Mosher Book and Trust Fund of NEYM, 2006) – more than an update of Samuel Bownas's "Description of the Qualifications Necessary to a Gospel Minister (ca. 1750), here is wisdom and advice on how to cherish, live with, and grow into the gift of ministry. It aims at the specific temptations and opportunities of our own day, while incorporating those timeless truths with which a minister of any era must grapple. A rich lode for discussions especially among those who feel a call or nudge towards ministry.
Quaker Spirituality: Selected Writings edited by Douglas V. Steere (The Classics of Western Spirituality, Paulist Press, 1984) – collection of Quaker writings illustrating how Quakers have tried to live their beliefs. Includes extensive selections from George Fox, Isaac Penington, John Woolman, Caroline Stephen, Rufus Jones, and Thomas Kelly. The introduction is a thoughtful brief introductory history of Friends. There are now an abridged version and the Introduction as a stand-alone pamphlet. Can be used for group discussion or adult or high school First Day School classes.
Quaker Treasure by Martha Paxson Grundy (Weed lecture, 2002) – explores the core of Quakerism through her own spiritual journey among Friends; emphasizes the importance of the totality of the Quaker "gestalt." Provides an opportunity to share spiritual journeys in small groups or adult or high school First Day School classes.
Silence and Witness: The Quaker Tradition by Michael L. Birkel (Orbis, 2004) – excellent introduction to Quaker thought and spiritual life; detailed examination of discernment about when to speak in meeting and other leadings; includes selected quotations of prominent Friends; the chapter on the inward experience of worship is both an excellent introduction and a seasoned examination of centering techniques.
The Authority of Our Meetings is the Power of God by Paul A. Lacey, PHP #365 (2003) – explores the creative tension between individual and corporate responsibilities in our monthly meetings to witness to the power and authority of God. Can be used for discussions.
History: Where We Came from and Why We are Like We Are
"Finding a Useable Past" by Sandra Cronk in A Lasting Gift: The Journal and Selected Writings of Sandra L. Cronk (Quaker Press of FGC and SOTS, 2009), pp. 161-170 – Friends' testimonies originated in an understanding of living in a new paradigm. Because they were listening to the Inward Christ and the seed of God's realm had taken root in them, therefore they lived in a new way, what today we call the various testimonies. Offers fruitful material for group discussion or adult or high school First Day School classes.
A Lively Faith: Reflections on Iowa Yearly Meeting (Conservative) by Callie Marsh (Quaker Press, 2011) – story of one group of Friends engaging modern culture, keeping what is precious of their tradition, discerning what changes are required. Explores important aspects of faith and practice for Friends today. In some ways updates and challenges Taber's Eye of Faith. Marsh's "Conclusion: The Possibility of Transformation" especially invites discussion in small groups or adult First Day School.
Portrait in Gray: A Short History of the Quakers by John Punshon (Britain Yearly Meeting, 2006) Revised edition – a comprehensive and thoroughly readable introduction to the history of Quakerism, from its origins in 17th century England to the development of the differing varieties found around the world today. Its emphasis is on developments within Great Britain. A standard work for individual and group study of our Quaker story.
The Eye of Faith: A History of Ohio Yearly Meeting Conservative by William P. Taber, Jr., (Barnesville: OYMC, 1985) the Wilburite history of OYM(C) with a thoughtful explanation of the challenges facing them as of the 1970s and early 1980s. A lot has happened since then, but this provides insight into the back story, helpful for personal information and background for group study of some of the differences among U.S. Friends today.
The Quakers in America by Thomas D. Hamm (The Columbia Contemporary American Religion Series, Columbia University Press, 2003) – a concise history of the Religious Society of Friends, an introduction to Quaker beliefs and practices, and a picture of the culture and controversies of Friends today. Opens with vignettes of Conservative, Evangelical, Friends General Conference, and Friends United Meetings, reflecting Friends' diversity in the wake of the 19th century schisms. Helpful for individual and group study of US and Canadian Quakers and how we became so diverse.

Everton will have to wait another week to see who they will meet in the FA Cup third round after Cheltenham and Hereford drew 1-1 at Whaddon Road.
Cheltenham dominated the opening stages with Billy Jones having a free-kick deflected for a corner while Steve Elliott and Kaid Mohamed were denied by keeper James Bittner.
The pressure finally paid off on 16 minutes when a slick pass from Marlon Pack found Jermaine McGlashan down the right and his low cross was neatly flicked home by Shaun Harrad. Jake Taylor glanced a header wide as the Robins continued to push but, after being on the back foot for so long, Hereford levelled with their first attack four minutes later.
