News and notes from the Browns' victory over the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday.
Quarterback Jason Campbell won his first home start as a Brown the hard way.
He played most of the game with aching ribs, the result of an illegal hit by 340-pound Raven Haloti Ngata.
Campbell didn't know if he was playing with broken ribs.
"I doubt that they are broken," he said after emerging from a post-game X-ray. "I don't really know the severity of it yet."
Campbell wound up going 23-of-35 for 262 yards, with three touchdowns, no interceptions and a 116.6 rating.
He left the game for a few plays late in the first quarter, but was back for the next series. He wasn't the same guy who started the game.
"It was extremely hard," he said. "I tried to do the best I could in order to help the guys around me.
"They tried to give me some time to make some throws.
"I kept telling them to just give me time because my ribs were really bothering me.
"It was bothering me on a couple of throws. I really wanted to cut it loose, but it was kind of grabbing me. I couldn't get what I wanted on the ball."
The Browns are heading for their bye week.
"The bye couldn't have come at a more perfect time," linebacker D'Qwell Jackson said. "We have some guys who are banged up who can heal up."
They are encouraged by what Campbell has done, posting the team's two highest passer ratings of the season in his two starts.
"This league is all about pressing on," Campbell said. "There are a lot of guys banged up and beat up."
Taylor defends Haden's comments
Some of the Browns were taken aback by criticism cornerback Joe Haden received for saying on Thursday, "These aren't the Ravens of old."
Haden couched the comments in the next breath, saying nice things about the defending Super Bowl champs. Yet, Ngata told Baltimore writers the comments were emailed to everyone on the team.
Haden's remarks did not prevent the Browns from winning 24-18 to end an 11-game losing streak to the Ravens. The Browns led 7-0 early and stayed in front the rest of the way.
Phil Taylor, who was drafted in the first round a year after Haden, alluded to his teammate's remarks afterward.
"It was just like Joe said," Taylor remarked. "They're not the same team they were last year.
"I don't know what's going on with them. They're not the same team."
On their way to the Super Bowl, there were signs the Ravens would become this kind of team.
The 2013 Ravens are in a 1-4 skid. The 2012 Ravens reached the playoffs despite ending the regular season in a 1-4 slump.
Running into trouble
In 11 previous games against the Browns, Ray Rice had racked up 1,158 rushing-passing yards and five TDs.
On Sunday, Rice ran 11 times for 17 yards. His sidekick, Bernard Pierce, ran six times for 11 yards.
Quarterback Joe Flacco was the only runner (three carries, 25 yards) who amounted to anything for the Ravens.
"They changed their offense up," Taylor said. "(Fullback Vonta) Leach probably had two or three snaps the whole game. They're not going to win like that. We knew we could take advantage of them."
• One might say the Browns aren't going to win if their running back gains 31 yards on 21 carries and loses the ball on a fumble. Yet, that was Willis McGahee's game line for the Browns.
• There was no extracurricular activity between Taylor and Rice, who spit toward Taylor in the first Browns-Ravens game. "After the game he came up to me and shook my hand," Taylor said.
Finally, Flacco cracks
Flacco now is 11-1 against the Browns.
His career passer rating against the Browns had been 92.7. It was 82.4 during Sunday's game. He went 24-of-41 for 250 yards, was sacked five times, and threw an interception to Haden.
The pick came with good protection on a route deep over the middle.
"It was just a terrible ball," Flacco said. "I saw the safety on the right hash. I thought he was eyeing up Torrey (Smith) coming across the field. I just threw a ... it was a really bad ball."
Safety Tashaun Gipson almost made the pick.
"I was just waiting behind Gipson," Haden said. "It got tipped, and I said, 'Thank you.' "
Oddly, the Browns got the ball back on the pick with 3:06 left in the half, leading 14-3, and wound up with just a 14-10 lead at the intermission.
• Flacco is 3-5, the worst first-half record of his six-year Baltimore career. "It's not easy on Sundays when you go out there and you're not getting the job done," he said.
Locker-room chatter
• Campbell on the fourth-and-1 pass to wideout Davone Bess that kept a Browns drive alive in the closing minutes: "We were trying to hit the running back. I'm not even sure I called the right play. We were trying to get something out quick, but we had to make sure it was a first down. I didn't want to throw unless I knew somebody was open. If it's incomplete, we leave four minutes on the clock for them. I said to myself I would just have to scramble around to see if I could find somebody open."
• Baltimore coach John Harbaugh on Ngata's personal foul that injured Campbell's ribs: "Haloti is in the air while Jason Campbell is in the air. Jason's running and because he ends up landing on him ... it's hard for me to understand why that's called."
• Harbaugh on linebacker Daryl Smith body slamming Greg Little for a personal foul: "He's trying to make a tackle. That's a big man, and it's tough to get him on the ground."
• Browns head coach Rob Chudzinski on two personal fouls against Little: "We were very excited, fired up to play. At times maybe a little bit too much."
• Chudzinski on sending Campbell back into the game after missing just a few plays: "Jason is a tough guy. He's a team guy. You can just tell. There's no way he was going to come out of that game. I can't reiterate enough ... the plays he made down the stretch were huge."
• Browns cornerback Buster Skrine on being in sole possession of second place in the AFC North: "We've got a good chance of going to the playoffs now. We have a game left at Cincinnati and two with the Steelers. We're trying to build off what we did today."
Extra points
• The Browns have defeated the defending Super Bowl champion four times in the last six seasons, an odd fact considering their best record in the last five full seasons was 5-11.
• Campbell's three TD passes matched his career high, set against the Eagles in 2007 and the Saints in 2009, when he was with Washington.
• Campbell and Derek Anderson (2007) are the only Browns quarterbacks since 1999 to put up back-to-back passer ratings above 100.
• Little's seven catches were a career high. He racked up 122 yards, not far off his career best of 131 against Ray Horton's Arizona defense in 2011.
•The Browns were outscoring foes 81-33 in second quarters before Baltimore produced a touchdown in the final seconds of Sunday's second quarter.
• The Browns entered the game ranked second in the league in sacks and added five more to bring their total to 31.
• Haden's interception was the 10th of his career.

I got asked a doozy of a question by Lytha about Resto Shaman PvP specs.
It's a doozy because I don't have a simple answer right now, but since when has ignorance ever stopped me posting a "guide"?
Maybe if Jagerbombz was still writing Shaman stuff he could fill us in. Maybe one of the other Resto bloggers out there will know. Maybe the answer is in your head.
I sort of figure that there is a bucket load of knowledge out there amongst the 12 million (12,000,000 seems bigger doesn't it?) WoW players and someone will have a definitive answer.
Meanwhile I am always open to speculation, shooting my damn fool mouth off and near enough is good enough (the kind of thinking that has made our once great nation Australia).
The way I see it there are two different styles of BGs, which could (ie: don't need to, but could) support two different spec styles.
- Zerg BGs
- Up close and Frost Shockable.
Zerg BGs
These BGs are the big ones, your Alterac Valleys, Wintergraps, Strand of the Ancients etc.
There are a pile of targets apart from yourself for opponents to hit and a pile of teammates for you to heal.
In the case of Alterac Valley and Wintergrasp (if you win and cant be bothered respecing) you even have a couple of raid bosses to defeat.
Therefore I think your bog standard raid healing spec will do you fine. If you can beg, borrow or steal (err earn, craft or buy) some resilience gear all the better.
Healing and staying power will be the order of the day. You want to make sure your heals are effective and your mana pool is deep enough (and replenishing fast enough) for you to pump out the heals – you may not get to rest for a drink for a while.
Up close and Frost Shockable.
These are the smaller BGs, your Warsong Gulch, Arathi Basin and Eye of the Storm.
The percentage of healers to damage dealers may be the same, but there are less bodies to target, so you are more likely to be one of the targets.
Resto Killing Machine
Did I tell you I solo'd a Rogue in EotS the other day? Poor bugger… My health kept going up, his kept going down… Fire totem here, Flame shock there… It wasn't pretty or fast, but he can shove is poisons where the sun doesn't shine.
So your spec needs to be a bit more versatile, both through taking more of the survival oriented talents as well as pumping your damage capabilities (especially if they can have a neutral or positive impact on your healing).
Holding down the fort while keeping up the health
You want to know that when you are the last one at the flag/resource/tower (cause those bloody dps you kept alive just ran off in search of more honor kills), that you can solo at least one opponent wile screaming invectives into BG chat and pinging your mini map for support like the mad (angry that is, I would never call you insane to your face) little Shaman you are.
Run Resto Run!
You want to know that when you are the last one standing in the enemy's flag room that you can pick up that flag and have a fair chance at surviving through judicious use of instant ghost wolf, earth shields, totems etc.
You grab the flag, ES yourself, get outside hit ghost wolf and your off… inc gankers, drop an earthbind totem and instantly back to shadow wolf to leave them rotting in your snare.
What are we here for again?
Of course you don't want to forget your primary reason for being there, healing, otherwise you might as well just spec Elemental or Enhancement. So your spec would still be mainly Resto, just with a few tweaks so you cam grab the occasional "defensive" 😉 killing blow yourself.
Remember you may be healing in your flag room, but it's still your job to stop that enemy flag carrier, rock that frost shock and earthbind totem!
Bring a smile to your face lightning quick
Let me tell you now, nothing will bring a smile to your face more than a pinch hit Chain Heal followed by a devastating Chain Lightning.
If it's you and a DPS against 2 opponents, rather than playing 2v2, play 3v2. Your heals + DPS & your team mates against their sorry corpses.
If it's 2v3, then I guess things are more even, but you want to make sure you spec keeps the fight even.
Elemental my dear Resto
Of course you wouldn't forget you Elementals would you? There is something about the Earth Elemental that causes people to forget their human opponents…
Must be all that PvE training…
God forbid they remember the fragile totem it's attached to…
Question asked… Question Answered?
So anyway folks, help me out here. I think I am reasonably close to the mark on why you would spec differently, but now I want to know in pretty pictures what these specs would look like.
Bring on your wowhead spec links!

A few months ago my six-year-old granddaughter and I were browsing Pinterest when she asked if I could make her an owl purse. I love it when I get requests from my children or grandchildren for something specific, so in preparation of the Christmas season I whipped up a pattern last week and got busy...
Normally, when I make a pattern I need to tweak it after the first go around, but this time the pattern worked from the get go! That was awesome, because I knew I wouldn't be making just one. I would be making a flock.
Four of our little granddaughters will be receiving these -- along with matching coin purse -- for Christmas. I asked each momma to measure across the body of each little recipient, to make the strap length perfect for each one. The two, three and four-year olds are getting one size bag and the six-year-old is getting a slightly larger version (blue in above photo).
available free of charge to the readers of my blog.
Little Girl Owl Crossbody Purse Pattern and Tutorial
is now available for sale in my Etsy store.
Please go here to purchase a "personal use" pattern!
A "commercial use" pattern is also available in my Etsy shop.
The commercial use pattern gives the buyer license to make and sell items made from this pattern.
Both the small and larger version of the bag are
included in the pattern.

I've been sequestered from the real world the last couple of days at a fascinating environmental conference with my pals at PERC in Bozeman, Montana, (featuring, among others, the fabulous Matt Ridley), so I'm behind on the news. I'll have some exclusive video from the conference in a couple of days after I get home and edit the footage.
Meanwhile, I had to be amused at one squib on the network news stories last week about Obama's debate face plant, where an Obama supporter wondered whether he might be distracted by a "crisis in the Middle East" or something. This, about the "lightworker" who famously said in the 2008 campaign when John McCain wanted to beg off the first debate because of the financial crisis that "a president ought to be able to do more than one thing at a time."
But more to the point—just which Middle East crisis might be bothering Obama? Libya, Iran-Israel, Egypt, or Syria? The alarming and candid speech from CBS's Lara Logan has already been widely noted, and this morning the Wall Street Journal notes that NATO has announced that it stands ready to defend Turkey from any escalation of Syrian attacks. But in one of those little details that my old teacher of strategic thought, Harold Rood, would have said merited more attention, note the news that South Korea is extending the range of its missiles so that they will now be able to reach any point in North Korea. Previously South Korea had limited the range of their missiles at the behest of the U.S. as a unilateral sign of "restraint." This sounds typical in the age of Obama's foreign policy weakness:
The decision comes after a year of public pressure by President Lee Myung-bak and other South Korean conservative heavyweights on the U.S. government, which formed the agreement known as the Missile Technology Control Regime in the 1987 to slow the spread of missile technology.
Hmmm. Love to know more of the story behind this. I suspect it isn't good.

NASCAR Images Suddenly Struggles For Credibility
One of the biggest changes in the NASCAR TV landscape this season is the lack of high-profile programming from NASCAR Images.
This Charlotte, NC based production company is perhaps best-known right now for Inside NEXTEL Cup, a Monday night program on SPEED. This TV series is the lone NASCAR survivor of the network's transition from Speedvision to the current SPEED Channel.
Left alone as the only NASCAR TV series on Monday nights this season, rumors were swirling that SPEED may not bring the program back in 2008.
NASCAR Images watched the ABC News production team create NASCAR in Primetime this season. This limited summer replacement series had low ratings but a high-profile on the ABC broadcast network in primetime.
The official TV production arm of NASCAR had produced outstanding "reality" style shows that used to fill SPEED's Monday night primetime. Chronicling the Busch Series teams, the Cup Series races, and the people behind-the-scenes in racing, fans loved the sensitivity to the sport and the TV craftsmanship of NASCAR Images.
Now, we find ourselves in the final week of the season. We also find a very different NASCAR Images. Instead of leading the way in NASCAR television, we find a company struggling for credibility in the very sport they are charged to document and promote.
Survival of the Fastest is a NASCAR Images TV series that airs Thursdays on SPEED. Originally, it was one of my favorites. Now, I know when each episode airs by the flood of email after the show. It was The Daly Planet readers that made me aware of potential problems. I still cannot believe NASCAR Images took this chance.
Chasing Glory is a NASCAR Images TV series that airs Wednesdays on ESPN2. The premise was to profile the participants in the 2007 NEXTEL Cup Chase for the Championship. The reality has been nothing short of a disaster for NASCAR Images and their racing credibility.
After my first column on this topic, Daly Planet readers began to give me a course in the art of video deception. In TV, using older footage for reference or to fill-in a gap in a story is called "re-purposing."
This is often done when a program or news story needs "B-roll." That is the footage shown when an announcer is talking about something, like a track or a race team. We might see older footage of Daytona or the classic black "3" car of Dale Earnhardt Sr.
There is, however, a big difference between "re-purposing" and "re-labeling." One allows older footage to be used to make a point in a story, the other tries to slip something by the NASCAR fans that is simply not true.
In both the current series NASCAR Images has used footage that was months, and in several cases, years old. Unfortunately, they "re-labeled" it and used the announcer audio and new on-screen graphics to try and present it to NASCAR fans as present day content. It has cost NASCAR Images dearly.
Video of NASCAR team meetings, fishing trips, backyard swimming pool fun, vacations at the beach and lots of other activities involving NASCAR personalities was presented to the nation as current day. Unfortunately, none of it was.
Daly Planet readers recognized footage from as far back as two years. The big question is why? With all the resources at the fingertips of NASCAR Images, why lie? With the company's credibility on the line, why have announcers deceive? What TV production company would purposefully put graphics on the footage that "re-labeled" something years old as last week or last month?
We emailed our contacts at NASCAR Images to ask about these issues. There was absolutely no response. As a former employee of that company prior to it being re-named, I was personally very disappointed. The best thing NASCAR Images could do is deal with this problem right now.
The mission of NASCAR Images is to document this sport just like NFL Films, PGA Tour Productions, and NBA Entertainment take care of their chosen pastime. At the core of this effort is the bond of trust between those organizations and the fans they serve. I belong to one of those groups. We call ourselves NASCAR fans.
This Wednesday at 5:30PM Eastern Time on ESPN2, the final regular season episode of Chasing Glory takes to the air. Over on SPEED, Survival of the Fastest airs at 8:30PM on Thursday. These two programs should be celebrating the end of a successful run on national TV. Instead, NASCAR fans are waiting to see if once again with NASCAR Images, the past is going to catch up with the present in all the wrong ways.

JD, I disagree. Sure they used video from a while back, but they did not put a date on each shot like, "this fishing video was from last week" or anything like that. I think it would be hard to get a driver back out to the lake and get that fishing video again just so it would be recent. Why re-shot when you have the shot already. I must say though, that if a shot WAS labeled as last week and it was not, that is a problem. But I don't think that has been a big problem with the NASCAR Images programing.

When the show is about the events that took place last week and we're shown video of drivers fishing or with a girlfriend who's long-since gone, that deceptive.
Those are two examples. There are more. The implication of those shots within a show composed of current video is that those shots are current as well.
The point is, don't fake it. If Truex didn't go fishing this week, don't try to pretend he did. Shoot video of what he actually did with his free time.
That's how these shows used to be done.

Glad to see that someone else noticed "old stuff" - but I guess the term, reduce, reuse, recycle has new meaning. I agree with all the resources and access, there shouldn't be a need.

You are absolutely correct about the lack of ETHICS (and that is what it is... a journalistic ethics problem) shown by NASCAR Images.
What is more troubling is, well, quite frankly, the lack of outrage by fans and the lack of response by NASCAR Images and it's parent organization. It is yet another example of how far journalism has sunk and how Americans do not hold anyone accountable. A clear "Failure to Grasp the Big Picture"
Reality TV and News and Entertainment have all merged with shows like these, and where are the standards? One could argue that it's not news, so we don't have to follow journalistic news standards. Unfortunately for America once news became a profit center for these corporations, words like ethics, standards, accountability, responsibility and integrity have faded from broadcast offices across the country.
So, what do we do to fight this? STOP WATCHING. Turn off your TV and either watch something else or go outside and play with your family. The only voice these companies hear anymore is the sound of the dollar. Hold them accountable in the marketplace.
Thanks for an excellent column and excellent work. NASCAR has had no one holding them accountable for quite a while, and I am glad you are there pointing out this stuff to an audience. Now, if only the broadcasters (because they are NOT journalists) will listen?

I think that's going a little far in this case, unless you're arguing that NASCAR Images lost its integrity sometime between last season--when they didn't do this--and the current season.
It's more like laziness or cost-cutting, I think.

JD, I disagree. Sure they used video from a while back, but they did not put a date on each shot like, "this fishing video was from last week" or anything like that.
They *did* put a current timeframe labeling on many clips of old footage, especially on Survival of the Fastest. Many times. Clips would specifically say "Four days before the race" when they were a year or two old. Or in last week's Chasing Glory, they showed Jeff Gordon getting dressed and talking to his crew in his hauler with a caption of "Race Day" in Texas, but it was actually footage from an old race from Gordon's new DVD. They mixed that old footage in with new footage from race weekend at Texas, so new viewers wouldn't know they were being misled.
If you check Mr. Daly's past columns and the comments following them, you'll see a number of specific examples.
I think it would be hard to get a driver back out to the lake and get that fishing video again just so it would be recent.Why re-shot when you have the shot already.
The NASCAR Images of old wouldn't want to show a driver on a show doing the exact same thing he'd done on another of their reality shows. They would have shown new footage of the driver in a different environment. I've seen the year-old Martin Truex fishing footage used twice on separate progams just since the Chase started.
I must say though, that if a shot WAS labeled as last week and it was not, that is a problem.
Mr. Daly, I can't thank you enough for calling attention to this issue. If this had happened without your site being in existence, it would be something we mention among family and friends "haven't we seen this before?", but never find out that others are noticing it too.
I've been hoping to see some kind of official response or email from NASCAR Images sent to you and posted in a column, and I'm sad that they've sent nothing to explain why they changed directions in programming -for the worse - this year.

NASCAR in Primetime was an excellent production. I loved watching it and found my heart racing every time I watched it. I can imagine someone becoming interested in the sport after tuning in...I was really interested in Johnny Sauter after following his progress on the show.
If they wanted to clone a show, that would be a good one to model.
I have no problem with the use of old footage as long as it not labeled as current.

Oh, I hope not. Too much "ABC" and too little NASCAR.
From the use of music, to the 'random' fans, to the use of previous years' crashes to 'dramatize' the danger, it was insulting.
I watched the first two, then gave up.

'With the company's credibility on the line, why have announcers deceive?'
Great point. I noticed this season that even if the programs didn't label the footage as new, they used the announcer's words to give the impression that what we were seeing was happening that week.
As for NASCAR in Primetime, that show was created with all new footage, following a few drivers around and filming them each for a few weeks earlier this season. Whether viewers ended up liking the series or not, they were giving you something new. When they used old footage, they used it just like JD said it was supposed to be used - historically or to demonstrate a point.

As you can see from the tone of my column, this was hard to write.
I went back and made sure of the facts, and then published.
This is the final week of the season, and was the right time to bring attention to this situation.
Hopefully, this situation will change for the future, and that is my aim.

I agree, JD. I think all of us who truly enjoyed all the previous programs produced by NASCAR Images were shocked and disappointed at this turn of events. For an organization, that has been known for excellence, to fall off the cliff this season has been a shame.

With my work schedule changed a couple of years ago, I don't have time anymore to watch much NASCAR programming during the season except the race and RaceDay. But in the offseason, I've always liked taping the reruns of the reality shows.
In the winter, SPEED shows the past season of the shows each weekday and I would tape them and catch up with all the episodes over the weekends. It was a great way to get my "race fix" before Daytona. Last year, the shows were Beyond the Wheel and Seven Days.
I've been keeping track of the discussion for a few weeks and know that I don't need to worry about catching the reruns of Chasing Glory or Survival of the Fastest this winter - because I've already seen most of it before. That's really a shame.

I enjoy the shows that Nascar Images puts together my problem now is that I don't trust them. Every time I watch Survival of the Fastest or Chasing Glory I wonder if what I am seeing now is new or old. I wouldn't mind if they used the "old" footage if it wasn't implied or labeled as being "new". The Championship Week series on Speed in a perfect example of a good way to reuse footage, I'm watching it knowing what year they are talking about and I can enjoy it for what it is. My big question is why are they reusing the old footage; is it because drivers/teams are not making themselves available (I can actually understand this especially with those teams in the championship hunt) or are they trying to do it on the cheap? Inquiring minds want to know, JD??

Same ol' same ol'. Tonight's Chasing Glory mixed in footage from the Jeff Burton and Eddie Gossage episodes of 7 Days from last year.
Interesting that they will put dates on historical race footage so people will know the date, but try to mix in the old personal footage without anyone knowing. It's clear they wanted us to think, for instance, that the Gossage "Fandango" fan event happened on the recent race weekend.

I say it has to do with cost, NASCAR is cheap, period! Look how long it took them to install electronic scoring, years! I still can't believe they still use a "orange cone" at the pit lane line, WOW!!! The drivers can't see that small cone and it gets run over every week, a garage full of engineers and they use a small orange cone? This simple thing may seem silly, but it shows how cheap and mis-managed NASCAR really is!!! Brainless Brian is a moron and the falling TV ratings and empty seats proves my point!!!

This isn't about Nascar Now. It's about Images. I would say as others have that the lack of availabilty of the drivers is the main reason. So if JG goes to NY to take care of the baby that they would film it in a heart beat if he said come on up. They don't want to be followed with cameras during this time. That's evident.

ESPN does NOT PLAY WELL WITH OTHER NETWORKS in the sandbox or anywhere for that matter.
NASCAR images was owned and may still be owned by FOX and ESPN and FOX do not get along. End of story although I do not understand it.

text: TV 'Wheel of Fortune' Winner Reveals How He Figured Out 'New Baby Buggy' (Video) 10:22 PM PDT 3/20/2014 by Debbie Emery FACEBOOK TWITTER EMAIL ME Emil De Leon and Pat Sajak, photo by Carol Kaelson. UPDATED: Emil De Leon tells THR he has his nursing school to thank for what Pat Sajak called "the most amazing solve" in 30 years. There has been some amazing solves over the years on Wheel of Fortune, but both viewers and host Pat Sajak agreed that Wednesday night's episode featured the most impressive ever. Emil De Leon, 25, of Daly City, Calif., correctly guessed the 12-letter phrase "New Baby Buggy" with only the letters N and E on the board, resulting in what Sajak called on Twitter "the most amazing solve in my 30+ years on the show." Tonight's "Wheel of Fortune" features most amazing solve in my 30+ years on the show. No kidding. — Pat Sajak (@patsajak) March 19, 2014 Still in shock over his success, De Leon told The Hollywood Reporter: "I am overwhelmed, this is surreal. I can't look at the Internet without seeing my face all over it." VIDEO: 'Wheel of Fortune' Host Pat Sajak Stunned After Contestant Guesses Nearly Impossible Puzzle There have been some high-profile winners in the past, such as last year's Autumn Erhard, who won $1 million for guessing "tough workout," but De Leon believes that his is the best. "I've watched both of the million-dollar winners but -- and I don't want to put myself on a high horse -- I don't know if anyone else could have done that as well as I did," he said. PHOTOS: 2014's New Broadcast and Cable TV Shows "I have been watching Wheel of Fortune since I can remember. My parents would just sit me in front of the TV to watch it so I've been prepping my whole life. The first letters I ever learned were R, S, T, L, N, E, which are the main letters in Wheel of Fortune," he said, but this was the first time he had actually been on a game show. "I am not very good at talking, I am such an introvert. I stutter a lot, but when it came to the puzzle I was in the zone and it got rid of my stutter," said the nursing student. PHOTOS: 'Divergent,' 'Fault in Our Stars' Actor Ansel Elgort Despite his massive achievement, De Leon only walked away with $63,099 in cash and prizes compared to the fortune won by those who landed on the wedge and made it to the bonus round, but he doesn't care. "I am living the dream right now and have no regrets." De Leon -- who prepped by playing the Wheel of Fortune video game, on Twitter and the app -- went on to reveal how he figured out the puzzle with so little to go on. "Only the N and the E popped up, so I needed to get more letters, in my head I already chose H, M, D, O -- which are my go-to letters for the bonus round when I play the video game. STORY: Scandal's' Shooting Victim Speaks Out: 'I Don't Think He Deserved to Die' "The first word was easy as there is pretty much nothing that can go there except 'new'. Then I just kept on working with the second word -- I used a used letter board, the first letter there was B, so I worked off that. New Baby just sounds right -- it flows," he explained. Having just studied pediatrics for his nursing exams, De Leon had "babies on my mind" and "I just thought, 'What do you find with a new baby?' and came up with buggy. Although it only aired on Wednesday, De Leon filmed his game-winning episode on Jan. 17 and said, "That was a very long two months that I had to keep quiet. My parents are very talkative so I was worried!" He now says he will spend his prize money on paying off school fees, and try and fit in the trip to Cabo, Mexico, that he won before heading back for a registered nursing course. First, however, De Leon will be back on TV when he appears on Friday's Today and Monday's episode of The Ellen DeGeneres Show, where he can be seen dancing excitedly onto the stage to share his secrets with Ellen and co-host Jason Bateman. On Today, De Leon weighed in on conspiracy theorists who say there's something fishy behind his "amazing solve." "The people that know me, they know my skills as a puzzle solver," he said. "I've been playing online, on Twitter, on the video games, the app, and I just know that my skills prove that everything is real. This is me. My brain has been working. Watch De Leon's amazing reaction to his win below: Hilary Lewis contributed to this report. FACEBOOK TWITTER EMAIL ME Debbie Emery firstname.lastname@example.com debemery

StarWarsShop.com makes Medicom's Super Deformed Boba Fett figure available to American collectors.
The 8.5 inch tall vinyl figure, made by Japan's Medicom Toys, is currently going for $50 and is scheduled for an August 2006 ship date. It presents Boba in a more cartoonish super-deformed pose, sporting his Return of the Jedi version armor. This comes as a boon for Fett collectors', as you would originally have to pay at least $150 to obtain this statue.
These figures were originally limited to 2004 pieces and were only available at World Character Convention 18 in Japan, back in 2004. It came in a special collector's box, which had a die-cut Mandalorian Skull window. StarWarsShop.com is also packaging their super-deformed Fett statue in the same type of display box.
Medicom had later released a variant version of this figure, with Boba in his Empire Strikes Back armor. However, this came in a plain green marketing box. This variant statue was also hard to obtain and ran about $175 on ebay.
So, if you've been looking for this rare Japanese collectible, you can now save yourself some headache and quite a bit of money. It's a safe bet that this, like all other Boba Fett statues, will be a popular seller.

Invitations go out Oct. 10 for an Oct. 17 event where Apple will announce the iPad Mini, expected to be on shelves Nov. 2, according to Fortune magazine's site.
Of course, Apple has not acknowledged that the product even exists, is being developed or is an idea in someone's head.
Nevertheless, rumors have persisted that Apple will launch a smaller iPad to give itself a lower price point -- better to compete with Amazon's Kindle and Kindle Fire and Google's Nexus 7.
U.S. & World
Some leaked, unverified photos of the device show a 7.85 inch screen with an aluminum casing on the back and the new Lightning connector.
Mark your calendars and place your bets as to which rumors will come true on or about Oct. 17.

May 18, 1996, Section 1, Page 1Buy Reprints
A New York University physicist, fed up with what he sees as the excesses of the academic left, hoodwinked a well-known journal into publishing a parody thick with gibberish as though it were serious scholarly work.
The article, "Transgressing the Boundaries: Toward a Transformative Hermeneutics of Quantum Gravity," appeared this month in Social Text, a journal that helped invent the trendy, sometimes baffling field of cultural studies.
Now the physicist, Alan Sokal, is gloating. And the editorial collective that publishes the journal says it sorely regrets its mistake. But the journal's co-founder says Professor Sokal is confused.
"He says we're epistemic relativists," complained Stanley Aronowitz, the co-founder and a professor at CUNY. "We're not. He got it wrong. One of the reasons he got it wrong is he's ill-read and half-educated."
The dispute over the article -- which was read by several editors at the journal before it was published -- goes to the heart of the public debate over left-wing scholarship, and particularly over the belief that social, cultural and political conditions influence and may even determine knowledge and ideas about what is truth.
In this case, Professor Sokal, 41, intended to attack some of the work of social scientists and humanists in the field of cultural studies, the exploration of culture -- and, in recent years, science -- for coded ideological meaning.
In a way, this is one more skirmish in the culture wars, the battles over multiculturalism and college curriculums and whether there is a single objective truth or just many differing points of view.
Conservatives have argued that there is truth, or at least an approach to truth, and that scholars have a responsibility to pursue it. They have accused the academic left of debasing scholarship for political ends.
"While my method was satirical, my motivation is utterly serious," Professor Sokal wrote in a separate article in the current issue of the magazine Lingua Franca, in which he revealed the hoax and detailed his "intellectual and political" motivations.
"What concerns me is the proliferation, not just of nonsense and sloppy thinking per se, but of a particular kind of nonsense and sloppy thinking: one that denies the existence of objective realities," he wrote in Lingua Franca.
In an interview, Professor Sokal, who describes himself as "a leftist in the old-fashioned sense," said he worried that the trendy disciplines and obscure jargon could end up hurting the leftist cause. "By losing contact with the real world, you undermine the prospect for progressive social critique," he said.
Norman Levitt, a professor of mathematics at Rutgers University and an author of a book on science and the academic left that first brought the new critique of science to Professor Sokal's attention, yesterday called the hoax "a lot of fun and a source of a certain amount of personal satisfaction."
"I don't want to claim that it proves that all social scientists or all English professors are complete idiots, but it does betray a certain arrogance and a certain out-of-touchness on the part of a certain clique inside academic life," he said.
Professor Sokal, who describes himself as "a leftist and a feminist" who once spent his summers teaching mathematics in Nicaragua, said he became concerned several years ago about what academics in cultural studies were saying about science.
"I didn't know people were using deconstructive literary criticism not only to study Jane Austen but to study quantum mechanics," he said yesterday. Then, he said, he read "Higher Superstition: The Academic Left and its Quarrel With Science" by Professor Levitt and Paul R. Gross.
Professor Sokal said the book, which analyzes the critique of science, prompted him to begin reading work by the critics themselves. "I realized it would be boring to write a detailed refutation of these people," he said. So, he said, he decided to parody them.
"I structured the article around the silliest quotes about mathematics and physics from the most prominent academics, and I invented an argument praising them and linking them together," he said. "All this was very easy to carry off because my argument wasn't obliged to respect any standards of evidence or logic."
To a lay person, the article appears to be an impenetrable hodgepodge of jargon, buzzwords, footnotes and other references to the work of the likes of Jacques Derrida and Professor Aronowitz. Words like hegemony, counterhegemonic and epistemological abound.
In it, Professor Sokal wrote: "It has thus become increasingly apparent that physical 'reality,' no less than social 'reality,' is at bottom a social and linguistic construct; that scientific 'knowledge,' far from being objective, reflects and encodes the dominant ideologies and power relations of the culture that produced it."
Andrew Ross, a co-editor of Social Text who also happens to be a professor at N.Y.U., said yesterday that about a half-dozen editors at the journal dealt with Professor Sokal's unsolicited manuscript. While it appeared "a little hokey," they decided to publish it in a special issue they called Science Wars, he said.
"We read it as the earnest attempt of a professional scientist to seek some sort of philosophical justification for his work," said Professor Ross, director of the American studies program at N.Y.U. "In other words, it was about the relationship between philosophy and physics."
Now Professor Ross says he regrets having published the article. But he said Professor Sokal misunderstood the ideas of the people he was trying to expose. "These are caricatures of complex scholarship," he said.
Professor Aronowitz, a sociologist and director of the Center for Cultural Studies at CUNY, said Professor Sokal seems to believe that the people he is parodying deny the existence of the real world. "They never deny the real world," Professor Aronowitz said. "They are talking about whether meaning can be derived from observation of the real world."
Professor Ross said it would be a shame if the hoax obscured the broader issues his journal sought to address, "that scientific knowledge is affected by social and cultural conditions and is not a version of some universal truth that is the same in all times and places."
Coiled Gibberish in a Thicket of Prose
Following is an excerpt from "Transgressing the Boundaries," a parody by Prof. Alan D. Sokal of New York University that was published in the journal Social Text as a serious article.
"Here my aim is to carry these deep analyses one step further, by taking account of recent developments in quantum gravity: the emerging branch of physics in which Heisenberg's quantum mechanics and Einstein's general relativity are at once synthesized and superseded. In quantum gravity, as we shall see, the space-time manifold ceases to exist as an objective physical reality; geometry becomes relational and contextual; and the foundational conceptual categories of prior science -- among them, existence itself -- become problematized and relativized. This conceptual revolution, I will argue, has profound implications for the content of a future postmodern and liberatory science."

Before Installing
Do I need to uninstall a previous version of NeoOffice first?
Users often ask if they need to uninstall NeoOffice before installing a newer version. The short answer is NO; in fact, completely uninstalling NeoOffice using the linked instructions before launching the new version may actually cause your old preferences to be reset and dictionaries, macros and other user files to be deleted.
NeoOffice 2.x will install over top of an existing NeoOffice 2.x or NeoOffice 1.2.x installation, replacing the old version while preserving a number of "user" files that live inside of the application bundle. On first launch, NeoOffice 2.x will also offer to import your NeoOffice 2.x or 1.2.x preferences. After upgrading, you should be sure to install the most current version of any language packs and check for upgrades to any installed dictionaries.
Can I have two versions of NeoOffice installed simultaneously?
Users, especially those in institutional settings, often ask if they can have multiple copies of NeoOffice installed simultaneously, for example as they qualify a new version for their environment. This has been possible since NeoOffice 2.0 Alpha, and this procedure is used regularly by NeoOffice developers and testers/bug triage team members to check bugs against multiple versions and in Early Access periods.
To install a second version of NeoOffice, use the following steps:
- Move or rename your existing /Applications/NeoOffice.app, as this is where the new NeoOffice will install to.
- For example, I renamed my NeoOffice 2.1 installation /Applications/NeoOffice-2.1.app.
- N.B. When renaming your existing NeoOffice and installing a new version, many macros, language packs, dictionaries, and other items that are installed inside the NeoOffice application itself will not be preserved as they are during a normal installation. Your should re-install these items.
- Install the new version of NeoOffice
- Be sure to always launch the desired copy of NeoOffice by double-clicking on the appropriate NeoOffice icon in the /Applications folder in the Finder.
- Do this as your Dock icon may still point to your moved/renamed installation, and LaunchServices (the part of the OS that handles opening files via double-clicks) may randomly choose the version of NeoOffice it opens.
- When you no longer need to use one of the versions,
- Simply drag the undesired version of NeoOffice from the /Applications folder to the Trash.
- Be sure to empty the Trash; otherwise documents may fail to open in the remaining version (this is an Apple bug)
- Rename your remaining NeoOffice installation "NeoOffice" (if applicable).
You can use two versions of NeoOffice 2.x on the same machine; however, due to the size of NeoOffice, we recommend that you don't run both at the same time.
Do I need to uninstall OpenOffice.org first? Can I get rid of OpenOffice.org?
NeoOffice will not harm your OpenOffice.org installation; both applications use separate locations for e.g. preferences, macros, and other add-ons. (Due to the limitations of the Mac OS X file association system, NeoOffice and OpenOffice.org may fight over which application will open shared file formats [.sxw, .odt, etc.] by default.)
You do not need to get rid of OpenOffice.org, but you also do not need to keep OpenOffice.org if you are happy with NeoOffice.
Installation Issues
When double-clicking on the .dmg file, there is an error about "No mountable file systems"
This error usually means that the NeoOffice .dmg was not completely downloaded. Some combinations of browsers and internet connections frequently cause large downloads like NeoOffice to stop before the entire file is downloaded but do not inform the user that the download has failed.
In this case, you might try using the command-line curl tool to complete the download (this tool is also useful if you are on a dial-up connection and may need to stop and start the download to use the phone line). Instructions on using curl to download NeoOffice can be found here.
When running the NeoOffice installer, the "test" returns with "NeoOffice can not be installed on this computer."
The BSD subsystem is installed by default on 10.3.x and 104.x as part of the BaseSystem.pkg. If this problem occurs on 10.3.x machines, your BSD subsystem may have been somehow removed or messed up. It is not recommended that you reinstall BaseSystem.pkg alone, since this may leave your system in an unuseable state. Instead, reinstall Mac OS X from your retail CD; select the "Upgrade" option to preserve all of your settings, documents, etc. Then reinstall the latest Mac OS X updates and security updates to return you system to an up-to-date state.
N.B.: Since this requires a fairly significant amount of work, and perhaps time, you should probably check the trinity forums first and see if someone can determine if something else is the problem and find another solution.
Installation stalls when it gets to the "Select Destination" screen
Installation sometimes stalls or hangs when it gets to the "Select Destination" screen (and no drives will appear to choose from). The Apple Installer is known to hang when probing all of the volumes on your system if any of your volumes are unreadable.
Try opening each of the volumes on your desktop in the Finder and unmounting any iPods. Once you can open all volumes, then try rerunning the installer. If opening any volumes causes the Finder to hang, you have found the cause of the problem and you might need to reboot to force Mac OS X to unmount the offending volume.
Installation fails with a "generic" error message
For some users, installation will fail and the following error message will appear:
There were errors installing the software Please try installing again.
If you see this message, you need to open the System Preferences application (/Applications/System Preferences), click on the International icon, select the Languages tab, move English to the top of the list, log out, login again, and then rerun the installer. After installation, you can (and should) revert to your preferred language.
This behavior is required to work around a rare but serious bug in the Mac OS X Installer on some versions of Mac OS X; for more information, see this section of the Download instructions.
Why does the NeoOffice installer request my administrator password?
In this thread, Patrick Luby explains the reasons for this requirement:
- Administrator access is required because Neo/J uses OpenOffice.org's multi-user installation. This doesn't require admin access, but in the early days of Neo/J testing, we found that the OOo code has a very bad habit of trying to edit the installed files if the files are owned by the same user that is running Neo/J. This can really muck up a Neo/J installation over time.
- So, to prevent the OOo code from editing any of the files in the installation, the installer executes chown -Rf root:admin and chmod -Rf a-w all of the Neo/J files.
When upgrading from NeoOffice/J 1.1 Alpha or older to a new version, the old brown icon remains in the Dock.
For those of you who are upgrading from 0.x or 1.1 Alpha to 1.1 Beta or newer (including 1.2 Alpha), the new icon (a tan ship in a dark blue circle) does not show up in the Dock if the old brown one is already there. Drag the existing icon out of the Dock until it goes poof, then start NeoOffice. Now the new icon appears in the Dock. Choose Keep in Dock.
Patching Issues
The patch installation fails with a "generic" error message
For some users, installation will fail and the following error message will appear:
There were errors installing the software Please try installing again.
See Installation fails with a "generic" error message in the Installation Issues section above.
The patch installer refuses to start the installation.
Under Mac OS X 10.3.x and 10.4.x, the installer will provide a red "stop" sign with exclamation point; clicking on the volume will produce the error message "You cannot install this software on this volume" as well as some further information about the problem (or on 10.4.x, "Could not find specified message for index 16", which is a bug in the 10.4.x installer).
There are two cases in which these messages might appear.
The patch is for a version of NeoOffice newer than the version installed on your computer
Patches for NeoOffice 1.2.x will not apply to NeoOffice/J 1.1 or below. Each time NeoOffice moves to a new version of the OpenOffice.org codebase (including OpenOffice.org minor point releases), the patches for the new version will be incompatible with older versions of NeoOffice. NeoOffice 1.2.x uses the OpenOffice.org 1.1.5 codebase while NeoOffice/J 1.1 (final) used the 1.1.4 codebase. As described in this thread, "It would be like trying to apply the Mac OS X 10.3.1 updater to Mac OS X 10.2.8...."
If you open NeoOffice and select "About" from the "Help" menu, the version reported in the About window should be NeoOffice 1.2.2 (as of March 2006).
To fix this problem, drag NeoOffice from the Applications folder to the Trash. Then download and install the latest version and the new patch that goes with it. See the NeoOffice Release Notes to learn which version is the latest.
NeoOffice is not located in the /Applications folder
The message will also appear if you have moved NeoOffice from your /Applications folder, or if you have renamed NeoOffice. The patch installer will only search the /Applications folder for NeoOffice installations; /Applications is the only supported location for installing NeoOffice.
To fix this problem, quit the installer and move NeoOffice back into your /Applications folder (or rename the application "NeoOffice"). Because the underlying OpenOffice.org stores a number of absolute pathnames in its configuration and preference files, you will also have to delete the ~/Library/Preferences/NeoOffice-2.2 folder or you will experience errors running NeoOffice in the future. Then run the installer again to install the patch.
Post-Installation and First Launch Issues
Check your language settings before launching NeoOffice
NeoOffice adopts the uppermost language of the Languages: box of the International pane of the Mac OS X System Preferences as its own language for spellchecking (assuming that the necessary language pack is already installed or the language is one of the default 12 languages).
Be aware that some languages have more than one form (e.g., English has US English, British English, Australian English, etc.) as the possible selection; click the Edit List... button in the Language tab of the International pane of the Mac OS X System Preferences to add your version of the language, and then drag and drop it to the top of the list in the Languages: box before launching NeoOffice for the first time.
See Activating Dictionaries and Configuring Spellcheck for further details on issues with certain languages.
Why does NeoOffice 1.2.x "hang" part-way through startup?
NeoOffice 1.2.x will appear to "hang" (the progress bar will stall between the "n" and "O" in "OpenOffice.org" in the tagline) during startup. This is normal behavior; the delay is caused by the initialization of native fonts. NeoOffice/J 1.1 and earlier initialized native fonts during the long delay prior to the appearance of the splashscreen, so the problem was less noticeable—although that behavior often caused people to wonder if the application was actually launching!
The length of this delay will vary depending on the number of fonts you have installed; you can shorten the delay considerably by using Font Book to disable fonts you do not use. (Make sure not to disable fonts required by Mac OS X [10.3.x list], of course.) Note also that every major update to OSX will automatically reenable all your disabled fonts, so in Font Book, it's worth setting up a new 'keep disabled' collection and adding to it all the fonts you want to keep disabled - then after you update OSX, you can simply select all the fonts in the 'keep disabled' collection and disable them all at once.
You may also experience slow startup after you rebooted your Mac. This is normal as the first time that NeoOffice is run, all fonts get fully loaded. This is because the OpenOoffice.org code needs data on all available fonts. This loading takes extends the startup phase the first time that NeoOffice is run (i.e. a cold start). Successive launches (i.e. warm restarts) will be much faster since all fonts are already fully loaded.
This is no longer an issue in NeoOffice 2.0 Alpha 4 with Patch-1 or higher; native fonts are now only initialized when they are needed (as a result of this change, the Font drop-down menu now displays font names using the standard UI font).
Why doesn't NeoOffice let me run it as "root"?
In this thread, Patrick Luby explains the reasons for this requirement:
- Running as root is disabled on purpose. Over a year ago I added this code because we found that running as root causes the underlying OpenOffice.org code to act like it is in "single-user install" mode. In this mode, OpenOffice.org starts writing user preferences in the /Applications/NeoOffice.app files. This, in turn, makes Neo pretty much unusable for any other user account on your machine.
Also note that running as (or even enabling) root is discouraged under Mac OS X, and one should only use root if one is an experienced UNIX admin and has a good reason to do so.
Why does NeoOffice access the Internet after the first launch?
NeoOffice is regularly being improved. Bugs are being fixed and new features are constantly being added.
When you first install alpha, beta, or release candidate versions of NeoOffice, and about once a week thereafter, the application will check the Internet to inform you of any new recommended patches or updates so that you can be sure that your version is always up-to-date.
If a new patch is found, your preferred web browser should open and take you to the patch download page.
Staying up-to-date will not only increase the stability of your software, it will cut down on the large number of "duplicate" bugs filed that have already been fixed in released patches. This helps ensure that limited development time can be spent on unfixed bugs and adding new features.
This "patch-check" feature is often disabled in final release versions, such as NeoOffice/J 1.1, since they are relatively stable and well-tested, and because users wish to deploy final releases in computer labs and enterprise environments.
NeoOffice performance is rather lackluster and I see redrawing. Can I speed this up?
The redrawing is an unavoidable result of the combination of OpenOffice.org code and Java. Some of this will always remain. On a fast machine, it is so quick as to be barely noticable.
In order to maximize your performance (and security) with NeoOffice, you should download and install Apple's lastest Java 1.4.2 update. There is a version for Tiger and for Panther.
You can check your version by opening a terminal and typing java -version. If you get an output that says java version "1.4.2_09" (the latest at the time of writing) or higher, you should get good performance. You can find a chronological list of updates from Apple's website.
For other tips on improving performance, see the Performance section of the Troubleshooting Tips article.
Why does NeoOffice ask me to register when I first run it?
Registration is not required to use NeoOffice. It is simply a way for developers to get a sense of who is using NeoOffice and to connect you with the web site, support fora, and Bugzilla.
Do I have to make a donation?
If you would like to make a donation to help support continued software development, you are encouraged to do so. It is not, however, required.
Troubleshooting tips for other common problems can be found on the Troubleshooting Tips page.
How do I get rid of NeoOffice?
You have tried NeoOffice and decided it is not for you. This happens sometimes. You can use these instructions to remove NeoOffice without leaving any trace. Please note that you will no longer be able to read any documents you may have saved in the OpenOffice.org file format.
Please leave a message in the NeoOffice Testing forum describing what you found lacking in the application so that we know what improvements people are looking for.

Let's start with some tough truths. "Non-allergic" or hypo-allergenic dogs do not exist (sorry, Bo Obama). You can't eliminate dog's allergens with special shampoos, topical sprays or oral agents. And there's little evidence steam-cleaning carpets and upholstery helps control pet allergies.
That's the myth-busting word from the American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (ACAAI). But all is not lost. ACAAI offers a few research-based suggestions for reducing pet allergen levels in the home.
Replace carpeting with hardwood, stone or tile. Carpeted floors act like big sponges that hold a hodgepodge of dust and allergens.
Limit or remove fabric-upholstered furniture and curtains. You want smooth surfaces from which you can wipe away allergens.
Sign up for our newsletter and stay in the know.
Wash bedding and curtains in one of three ways—in water at least 140°F with one rinse; at any temperature with two rinses; or in a steam-washing machine.
Use tightly woven protective coverings (with openings less than 4 microns) on mattresses, box springs and pillows.
Don't groom pets in your home.
But before you do anything, be sure to accurately diagnose the problem. "I can't tell you how many times I see patients who assume they're allergic to a cat or dog and they get rid of it. Then we do the allergy testing and discover it wasn't the animal," says Dr. James L. Sublett, a practicing allergist in Louisville. "It's unfortunate when you see that happen."

Great decision by Islamabad High Court to arrest former dictator General (Retarded) Pervaiz Musharraf. I hope things will go better in missing persons case and other cases of human rights violations. Its now a test for caretaker government to pursue high treason case against Musharraf.
Islamabad High Court orders Pervez Musharraf's arrest (Geo TV)
Source: http://www.geo.tv/GeoDetail.aspx?ID=97293
ISLAMABAD: The Islamabad High Court has ordered the arrest of Pakistan's former president, General (retd) Pervez Musharraf.
Pervez Musharraf appeared before the Islamabad High Court on Thursday to seek a bail extension in the judges' confinement case, however his plea was dismissed. During proceedings of the case, Justice Shaukat Aziz Siddiqui remarked that Musharraf was accused of destroying the judicial system. The court ordered that the charge of terrorism be added in the case.
Pervez Musharraf immediately left the court and drove to his farmhouse in Chak Shahzad escorted by his security personnel. Police are guarding the main gate of Pervez Musharraf's farmhouse and have blocked off access to the street.
The Islamabad High Court has issued its detailed order regarding the rejection of Pervez Musharraf's bail extension.
The court has taken notice of Musharraf's fleeing from the court premises and summoned Inspector General Police Islamabad. The court said that Musharraf's fleeing was a separate crime.
The IG Islamabad has been asked to explain what measures have been taken regarding the arrest of Musharraf and what action will be taken against those officers who failed to arrest him from the court's premises.
Musharraf's lawyers could not submit a pre-arrest bail petition against his arrest orders by the Islamabad High Court in the Judges' confinement case on Thursday. The petition could not be submitted as the court's hours of operation had expired.
Pervez Musharraf's lawyer Advocate Ibrahim Satti said the advocate on-record had taken the petition to the Supreme Court but could not submit it as the court's working hours had expired.
Satti added that the Registrar Supreme Court and Chief Justice Iftikhar Mohammad Chaudhry were attending the full court meeting and petition will be filed in the Supreme Court on Friday.
"Former President Musharraf earlier today appeared in Islamabad High Court in a procedural matter to seek extension in his transitory bail, which was due to expire today, April 18, 2013. The Judge, in an unprecedented move, took an unwarranted decision to reject the extension request.
The augmented State Security Apparatus assigned to President Musharraf in the face of specific and credible physical threats to his life by the enemies of Pakistan escorted the Former President to his home in Islamabad.
The Former President is filing an appeal in the Supreme Court of Pakistan against this ill-conceived decision of Islamabad High Court. We expect this unwarranted judicial activism, motivated by personal vendettas since his return to Pakistan to participate in the upcoming elections, will cease and the Supreme Court, without prejudice, will immediately grant necessary relief following precedence and the Rule of Law; the absence of which will cause mockery of the nation, can result in unnecessary tension amongst the various pillars of State and possibly destabilize the country."
The judges' confinement case stems from the detainment of several top judges including Chief Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry during the imposition of emergency by the former president in Pakistan on November 3, 2007.
Pervez Musharraf returned to Pakistan to contest general elections last month. His nomination papers from four constituencies were rejected by Election Tribunals earlier this week.
Musharraf is also accused in the Benzair Bhutto murder case and was granted interim bail till April 24 by the Lahore High Court Rawalpindi bench.

(Good day! I'm Steve George from the district of Putatan and I would like to take this opportunity to wish Happy Bountiful Harvest Festival to all of you.)
*Status:Yours truly currently at his own desk in the staff room waiting for the time for him to go invigilating the exam again*
It's 31st May and I'm here at this school doing my job as a teacher (doing my teaching practice). I've been receiving innumerable SMS-es from family and friends since last night - wishing me "Happy Kaamatan/Selamat Hari Kaamatan". Although I'm flattered to receive those wonderful greetings but the other side of me is dying to fly back to Sabah!
At this hour, I would've seated in the KDCA hall watching the performances and most importantly setting my eyes to all the contestants of the state-level Unduk Ngadau. At this moment, a close friend of mine is giving me updates on the event; informing me every detail of the event. *wink*
Oh. How I miss those days when I together with my friends had to squeeze ourselves into the hall and wandered all over the place to find suitable place to sit. We always get the seats in top deck as all of the other seats were already taken. Ours (seats) were actually the reserved seat. Not for us but for the orchestra. Apparently, the had to leave after their slot and we waited patiently at the side of the deck. Waiting for them to finish performing. Once they left the seats, we briskly walked to take over the place. *Grin*
The hall will definitely filled with people who came from all over Sabah. They come to support their respective Unduk Ngadaus. Somehow, the crowd will segregate themselves according to the districts.
Speaking of Unduk Ngadau, I went online and found the pictures of the finalists of the state-level Unduk Ngadau competition for the year 2010.
The contestants...
So, who among all these sumandaks will be crowned as Unduk Ngadau for the year 2010? Will get to know the result in just couple of hours. *waiting*

Create an index vector defined by two input vectors, one defining the beginnings of one or more index ranges, and the other defining the ends of the ranges.
The difficult part is that for and while loops are disallowed. No looping! [I apologize for the rudimentary regexp test for 'for' 'while' and 'eval'.] My test cases scan for usage of these substrings, so choice of variable names is effectively restricted as well.
So given 2 input vectors x1 and x2, the desired output is a third vector y, containing [x1(1):x2(1) x1(2):x2(2) ... x1(end):x2(end)]
x1 = [1 5 12]; x2 = [2 8 21];
y = [1 2 5 6 7 8 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21]
Please do not check for the occurance of "for" in general, because "UniFORmOutput" has nothing to do with looping ;-)
Your predefined function signature has only one parameter, altough two were submitted. Same problem without the "for" restriction: http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/cody/problems/555-low-high-low-high-turn-around-create-a-subindices-vector
This is an excellent problem.
I agree with Dirk. Change your regexp to check for instances of eval, for, and while that are not preceded or followed by additional letters.
give me a hint, should we use a specific function here?
'uniformoutpot' is innocent orz~~
'uniformoutput' is innocent orz~~
A separate test case that tests for functions that are against the rules would improve this problem. In this case, the "for" in "UniformOutput" was getting caught by the search. A separate test case would have made clear that the solution functions properly but contains an outlawed string.

July 17, 2016 – Pictures: 200 Muslim Youths Destroy Catholic Church In Niger State, Beat Up Church Members For Holding Service On Friday
Few days after a female RCCG preacher Deaconess Eunice Olawale was murdered by Muslim extremists in Abuja, another similar but less fatal attack has been carried out.
On Friday, about 200 muslim youths returning from Friday Jumat prayer rushed to the premises of St Phillips Catholic Church in Baki Iku, a community located between Abuja and Niger State.
The extremists reportedly protested the fact that the Catholic church carried out services on the same day as their Jumat prayer. The youths numbering 200 rushed into the church, beat the security men and some church members to stupor before moving into the main auditorium to vandalise all the church properties.
According to Reverend Father Gobep Luka Sylvester, the attack was carried out around 2pm on Friday the 15th of July 2016.
He added that the seminarian and women holding prayer were beaten and chased away from the church building.
See more photos from the scene of the attack…
Attacks of this nature is becoming frequent in Nigeria, it is high time President Buhari address this issue.
