One of the things that makes Warren Ellis such a great writer is that he can boil a character down to a single sentence.
"Are we going to land the carrier and break things?"
That's Midnighter in ten words. It tells you SO MUCH about how he handles conflict, which is to dive in and fucking ruin whatever is bothering him.
And it's also a perfect encapsulation of Jenny. Here she is, telling a man with a BATTLE COMPUTER in his head that he will stay home, and she will go out and do the ass-kicking, thank you very much.

My husband's woodworking hobby is taking over the garage. In addition to the router table, multiple saws, drill press, and various tools trying to find a home amongst the kids' bikes and Christmas decorations, everything in the space receives a shower of sawdust every weekend! We are working with a builder to create a dedicated workshop space for him which is why this beautiful barn caught my eye! Today's Featured Customer Jennifer lives just west of St. Louis and needed space for her own husband's workshop. Although the outbuilding is brand new construction, the couple wanted the barn to have enough character to complement their historic log home.Read More

A serious love of all things vintage drives Meg and Trevor's home design in Ontario, Canada. As they considered improvements to their main living space, Meg knew the cheesy, big-box-store lights would have to go.
"We wanted to add some interest to the ceiling as it is quite high and we had plain flush mount lights with no real interest," Meg explains. "We spend most of our time in this room so comfort was a definite feel requirement." The couple have an eclectic mix of items in their home including a lot of ethnographic African art mixed in with rustic industrial touches.Read More

Although bare-bulb pendants are all the rage in the interior design world, they were quite commonplace back in the early 20th century. It wasn't until the 1920s that shapely, opaque globes began to cover up those bare bulbs and add sophisticated new styling to schoolhouses, government buildings, and libraries. The name schoolhouse lighting came from the early classroom use of these globes which provided a warm glow of light and protection for the bulb from flying erasers and other enthusiastic learning!
The schoolhouse pendants in this kitchen, located in a grand 1910-era home in Seattle's Capitol Hill area, add a nostalgic feel while blending in with more modern touches. The butcher block and stainless steel counters create a sleek feel to the space while the white tiling on the walls and ceiling add texture. The floor is a dark blue, cork and rubber which must give relief to the chef's knees while standing for hours over the stove.
To get this look, check out our Schoolhouse Pendant, part of our line of Discount Warehouse Lighting. With clean and graceful lines, these pendants are the perfect touch in this vintage yet modern space. Available in both a 10″ and a 15″ shade, the Schoolhouse Pendant can add a nostalgic touch to the kitchens, dining rooms, and laundry rooms of traditional or historic homes. In your choice of a Rubbed Bronze or Chrome finish, this light starts at under $100 and can quick ship in five business days or less. Additional discounts are available for quantity orders so if your commercial space needs some vintage flair, be sure to check out the details on the product page!
And don't forget to vote for Barn Light Electric in the Martha Stewart American Made Awards! We are currently in the Top 20 and you can vote once a day from now until September 24th. Check out our nomination page and vote today! Thank you!

Should you invest in gold?
The shiny stuff has been sparkling. But when the economy and the stock market pick up, gold prices are likely to head down.
Over the past decade, no investment has shined quite as brightly as gold.
If you had invested $10,000 in gold bullion in January 2001, your 37.81 ounces of the precious metal would have been worth more than $69,000 by Sept 1, 2011. That beat the pants off stock investments. Vanguard Total Stock Market Index (VTSMX), for example, returned an annualized 3.6% over the same period. Bond returns, while better, didn't hold a candle to the nearly sevenfold run-up in the price of gold. And many experts believe the metal's price will go higher.
Yet even many of the most enthusiastic advocates suggest that investors dedicate just a fraction of their long-term portfolios to gold -- if any at all. The reason: Gold is a great hedge against "black swans" -- unexpected and catastrophic financial events. But when times are good, investments in gold typically go bad.
That's because the metal produces no earnings and doesn't offer a dividend yield. It appreciates or depreciates based on supply and demand. Right now, demand is high, thanks to a decade of rotten stock prices, a souring economy and worries about the value of currencies in a world where the list of over-leveraged governments is long and growing. Moreover, interest rates are so low (actually negative in many instances on an inflation-adjusted basis) that the metal's lack of yield doesn't hinder buyers.
Some central banks in developing countries, such as China and South Korea, have also started buying gold, boosting demand. But in normal times, the bulk of demand comes from jewelry manufacturers.
Good times are bad for gold
When world economies are stable and investment returns in stock and bond markets appear attractive, gold simply can't compete, and its price tends to languish. Indeed, during the booming 1980s and 1990s, the metal's price did nothing but fall. "It's a defensive hedge," says David Kudla, the chief investment strategist at Mainstay Capital Management. "People buy gold to hedge against inflation, against deflation, against economic or political uncertainty. We have all of those concerns -- and real concerns about the debasing of currencies worldwide right now."
Kudla expects gold prices to keep climbing until the U.S. government gets serious about cutting the deficit and entitlement programs -- and he has little hope that will happen soon. Still, he says, investors should hold no more than 15% of their assets in gold, and they should buy only when the price dips, because the metal's price is historically high. For example, gold dropped 3%, to $1,818 an ounce, on Sept. 7, a day on which the Dow Jones Industrial Average ($INDU) surged 2.5%
The metal is a good portfolio diversifier, because its price tends to move in the opposite direction of stock prices -- and often against bond prices, too, says the Tony Roth, the head of wealth management strategies at UBS. He predicts that gold will fetch $2,200 an ounce in 12 months and could be worth as much as $2,500 an ounce. And yet he's not a fan. Says Roth: "Gold does not produce income; it has very little commercial value. It really only has psychological value. We don't think that it's going to hold up over the long term." That said, in these uncertain times, Roth thinks that nervous investors might want to hold anywhere from 5% to 20% of their portfolios in gold for "downside protection."
If you're ready to dive in
There are many ways to buy gold. You can pick up coins, bars, gold-mining stocks and exchange-traded funds that hold gold bullion. However, most experts prefer ETFs. The reason: Mining stocks are affected by many factors other than the metal's price, including stock market conditions and the company's management. That can make individual stock prices considerably more volatile than those of the metal itself -- and gold prices are plenty volatile on their own.
However, you can bet on the sector without betting on a single mining company by investing in a mutual fund such as Tocqueville Gold (TGLDX), which invests mostly in gold companies and other precious-metals mining stocks. Over the past year (through Sept. 2), the fund, managed since its 1998 launch by John Hathaway, returned 29.2%, beating the average precious-metals fund by 7 percentage points. Over the past 10 years, the fund returned a stunning 28% annualized, beating its peers by an average of 4.2 points per year.
Meanwhile, the trading and storage costs for owning bullion as either bars or coins can be significant. Dealer markups and shipping and storage costs can shave the typical investor's return by 10% to 15%.
Exchange-traded funds, on the other hand, can buy in bulk and hold bullion on behalf of investors, so there's no need to pay fees for a safe-deposit box. The two top gold ETFs are SPDR Gold Shares (GLD), which boasts $72 billion in assets and charges 0.40% in annual fees, and iShares Gold Trust (IAU), which holds just over $10 billion in assets but charges annual fees of only 0.25%. I prefer the latter because of its lower expenses.

Let's see, shall we go to the Import Showoff Classic or should we watch the San Diego Chargers play the Kansas City Chiefs. Let's explore our options, Import Showoff will be full of the most beautiful girls in the import scene and vendors will have the latest toys for imports-did I forget to mention the dopest cars from the West Coast will compete for cash prizes. Our other option is to watch Kansas City Chiefs demolish the San Diego Chargers due to its battered first stringers being out of the game because of injuries...Hummm
Upon arrival to Anaheim convention center in California one would guess that this particular Showoff is an outdoor event due to the import cars gathered outside en masse. Later you would realize that the $8.00 you just spent was used to enter the parking lot and the show is an indoor event.
The Nitto badged Import Showoff Classic was by all means a classic case of the baddest rides and models gathered in one enormous room for enthusiast's enjoyment. If you don't believe us than check it out for yourself...

I've got some downtime during the middle of the day today, so I thought I'd go ahead and start writing. Today's topics: hair, makeup and wardrobe!
Occasionally people will ask us reporters if someone is here at the station to do our hair and makeup. The answer to that question is very short and emphatic: definitely NOT!
I've worked at three TV stations so far—a local news station in Dayton, Ohio (a larger market than Evansville), a locally-owned non-affiliate station in Chicago, and here. In Dayton, everyone was on their own with hair and makeup. In Chicago, one of the hosts of our morning talk show had a makeup person for a while, but that even dwindled to just a few times a week. She did her own hair.
Here at 14, we have a dressing room where some of us do our hair and makeup. (It doubles as a secret restroom.) I say "some", because I don't think everyone uses it. I tend to put on my "war paint" (as I like to refer to it) when I get here. Others come in all ready to go. Some do makeup at their desks at times. Hey- I'll take a dressing room any day! In Dayton, we didn't even have one. You either used a restroom or we had kind of a makeshift "getting ready" corner in the newsroom in front of a mirror!
As for hair, we do that every day ourselves, too. In the dressing room there's a nice collection of curlers, curling irons, straighteners, etc., several of them being mine. That is somewhat ironic because seldom do they actually get used (mine, that is)!
And wardrobe—we have a good amount of flexibility about what we wear. I have thought it would be pretty nice to have one big cabinet of jewelry in the dressing room that we could all share. We'd have a lot more options that way!
Ok… well what started as something I was writing around lunchtime just got picked back up after the 6pm news. Considering the Notre Dame/Alabama game starts in about 40 minutes, I'm going to sign off to go cheer on The Irish!
Have a good one!
Until next time,
1115 Mt. Auburn Road

"With MathWorks tools for Model-Based Design, we have one integrated tool chain from the beginning of development to the end. We have clear traceability of requirements, and our software is more maintainable because it is implemented as a model from which we automatically generate code."
Thomas Ehl, Continental
The air suspension in a large truck performs two important duties: It lifts and drops the chassis to couple the trailer, and it helps stabilize vehicles that have a high center of gravity. When a leading truck manufacturer asked Continental to develop an electronically controlled air suspension (ECAS) for its next generation of heavy-duty trucks, it presented the Continental engineers with a set of 1360 stringent system requirements. In addition, the ECAS had to ensure the safety and comfort of drivers operating 40-ton vehicles.
Continental engineers used MathWorks tools for Model-Based Design to create a model of the ECAS and link it to the customer requirements, maintain an executable specification of the ECAS, run closed-loop simulations, develop a real-time prototype, and automatically generate production code for a 16-bit microcontroller.
"We now have one common tool chain from the beginning of the development process to the end," notes Thomas Ehl, senior manager of software development for commercial vehicle control units at Continental. "We have clear traceability between the requirements and the model. From that model, we generate code for rapid prototyping and production targets, enabling us to test the design very early in the process."
In the past, Continental tracked customer requirements using manual processes that were both tedious and error-prone. Requirements were maintained in a text file and were not directly linked to the detailed design or to the C code, making it difficult to show a customer why a requirement may need to be changed or defined in more detail. Demonstrating that a design met all requirements was also a challenge.
Writing code was a time-consuming process: Continental engineers handwrote C code and then had to find and eliminate coding errors. To shorten the development cycle and identify potential problems as early in development as possible, they needed to automate these processes.
In their first major initiative using Model-Based Design, Continental engineers used MathWorks tools to develop the ECAS to the customer's specifications.
Using MATLAB®, Simulink®, and Stateflow®, the team developed a model of the ECAS that generated output signals to control air spring and damper valves based on several input parameters, including axle level, air spring pressure, truck speed and acceleration, and engine torque.
With Simulink Verification and Validation™, they traced customer requirements in IBM® Rational® DOORS® to Continental's performance specification and the relevant components of the ECAS model.
The team then ran open-loop simulations in Simulink by applying stimuli to the inputs and comparing the model outputs with expected results from the performance specification.
To conduct closed-loop tests, they developed a plant model of the truck in Simulink and ran simulations of the controller and plant model together.
The group automatically generated C code for the controller model using Simulink Coder™. They deployed this code to Simulink Real-Time™ to create a real-time prototype of the controller for road tests in a real truck.
Using Fixed-Point Designer™, they converted the floating-point design to an initial fixed-point design and redeployed it to Simulink Real-Time. The fixed-point code met performance requirements from the first iteration.
After verifying real-time operation on the prototype, Continental used Embedded Coder® to automatically generate code for the production target processor. The code was compiled with a Cosmic Software compiler for a Freescale™ S12XE processor running the Micrium µC/OS-II real-time operating system.
The team verified that the code met the MISRA® standards required by the customer, and then conducted final road tests to fine-tune the hardware.
The ECAS has been demonstrated to the customer and is slated for production. All new controller designs at Continental will be developed using Model-Based Design.

I took 200 mg 3 hours later no relief. I had high hopes but did not work for me. Unfortunately, the codeine cough syrup works the best so far.

It lies 327 miles southwest of Anchorage and is a 6 hour flight from Seattle. Climate The primary climatic influence is maritime; however, the arctic climate of the Interior also affects the Bristol Bay coast. Average summer temperatures range from 37 to 66 °F. Average winter temperatures range from 4 to 30 °F. Annual precipitation averages 26 inches, and annual snowfall averages 65 inches. Heavy fog is common in July and August. Winds of up to 60-70 mph may occur between December and March. The Nushagak River is ice-free from June through November.

Local Native groups and Natives from the Kuskokwim Region, the Alaska Peninsula, and Cook Inlet mixed together as they came to visit or live at the post. The community was known as Nushagak by 1837, when a Russian Orthodox mission was established. In 1881 the U.S. Signal Corps established a meteorological station at Nushagak. In 1884 the first salmon cannery in the Bristol Bay region was constructed by Arctic Packing Co., east of the site of modern-day Dillingham. Ten more were established within the next seventeen years. The post office at Snag Point and town were named after U.S. Senator Paul Dillingham in 1904, who had toured Alaska extensively with his Senate subcommittee during 1903. The 1918-19 influenza epidemic struck the region, and left no more than 500 survivors. A hospital and orphanage were established in Kanakanak after the epidemic, 6 miles from the present-day city center. The Dillingham townsite was first surveyed in 1947. The city was incorporated in 1963. Culture Traditionally a Yup'ik Eskimo area with Russian influences, Dillingham is now a highly mixed population of non-Natives and Natives.

WASHINGTON D.C. (WTAQ) - The U.S. Supreme Court ruled Monday morning that at least some corporations can choose not to cover women's contraceptives if the owners have religious beliefs against it.
The Obama health reform law requires such coverage -- and Monday's 5-4 ruling marks the first time that for-profit businesses can hold religious views which grant them exemptions.
The court said the ruling only applies to firms controlled by just a few people who are running the businesses, such as the Hobby Lobby chain which sued for the religious exemption.
In response to the ruling, Wisconsin Alliance for Women's Health Executive Director Sara Finger said it was, "disheartening," and that, "today's decision puts the personal opinions of bosses above the health care needs of women and we are committed to ensuring the people who would impose their personal beliefs on others are held accountable."
Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin has issued a statement on the high court's ruling, "The decision to use birth control is a woman's personal decision and her boss should not be able to interfere with her ability to access this important health benefit," said Tanya Atkinson, Vice President of Public Affairs and Education. "Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin remains focused on making sure that women have access to the method of birth control that is best for them, without cost or other hurdles standing in the way."
6th District GOP congressional candidate Glenn Grothman of West Bend called it a big ruling for Christians. He said he would protect religious freedom both privately and publicly if he's elected.
A second Republican hopeful, Joe Leibham of Sheboygan, said the ruling supports his belief in religious liberty -- but it also points out another problem with Obamacare, which he says is an affront to individual responsibility.
Grothman and Leibham are among three state legislative Republicans in an August 12th GOP primary for the House seat to be given up by Fond du Lac Republican Tom Petri.

United we shred.
Whether you've got every switch lipslide variation on lock, or you're more at home cruising around the resort, the lightweight, free-flexing Rome United snowboard binding is right up your alley. The Unibody composite base plate is durable and has a comfortable flex that's just as killer in the park as it is jibbing all over the mountain. The United asymmetrical highback is lightweight and flexible for tweaked grabs and perfect balance on those presses. The Conformist toe strap can be run as a traditional toe strap, or as a cap strap for more response. The Contour heel strap is big and cushy so you can stay out all day without sore feet. It's pretty much everything you can ask for in a freestyle binding.

- Familiarity: I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
I didn't actually love this binding the first time I went out. The one real main issue I have is that the plastic band with the teeth that slides into the the clip part of the binding is pretty short. I adjusted it all the way to the very end and it still seems somewhat short to me. I ride a size 11 1/2 boot but that's not huge. Other than that it is lightweight and seems pretty durable.
Lightweight responsive feel

- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Super light weight binding that transmit a lot of board feel. It has a sock construction (stitching inside) ankle strap that is super cushy; while the Mob Boss or the 390 have a heavy duty version of the cushy strap this does the job awesome for the price. I like that it is close to the snow and I ride it generally on more jibby boards and powder boards
what about the shipping weight?

In a shootout Thursday morning, police killed the man suspected of shooting six people at a car wash and a barbershop, authorities said.
At about 8 a.m., police stormed the building where Kurt Myers, 64, had holed up after the rampage Wednesday afternoon, Trooper Jack Keller said.
Authorities said Myers fired through a basement door, killing an FBI dog. Keller said police returned fire, killing the suspect. No cops or FBI agents were hurt.
"We commend the courage and extraordinary efforts of the state police, the FBI, and local law enforcement officials in finding the suspect and ending this horrific spree of violence and bloodshed," Gov. Andrew Cuomo said in a statement. "It is now time for mourning those who we lost in this senseless act of violence. In the darkest of times, the bravery, kindness, and the spirit of community of New Yorkers shines the brightest, and that is what we saw yesterday in Herkimer and Mohawk as the community came together during this difficult time."
Authorities found guns and ammunition inside Meyers' apartment after emergency crews were sent to a fire there Wednesday morning, officials said.
Soon after, Myers shot four people at John's Barber Shop in Mohawk, around the corner from the apartment, killing two, police said.
Police identified the barber victims as Harry Montgomery, 68, and Michael Ransear, 57, who were killed; and John Seymour and Dan Haslauer, who were critically wounded.
Officials said that the second shooting happened about a mile away in Herkimer, where Myers shot and killed two people at Gaffey's Fast Lube and Car Wash.
Police identified those victims as Thomas Stefka and Michael Renshaw.
Herkimer County Community College and local schools were on lock down. The college sent an automated phone alert around 10:40 a.m., telling students and staff that there was an "active shooter" in the area. The message identified the gunman as a man in his 60s, with a white beard and driving a red Jeep Cherokee. A text alert a few minutes later said the campus was on lock down. Another alert advised people to remain inside buildings until further notice.
Herkimer is named for the German immigrant family that settled in the western Mohawk Valley in the 1720s. The economically distressed villages are two miles away from Ilion, where a 2-century-old Remington Arms gun plant is a major employer.

If you're an Android user -- or want to be -- you've likely heard about all the security risks of Google's mobile operating system. But how real are these threats, and how much damage can they do? Despite the fears, are Android devices actually a safe bet for an enterprise mobility strategy?
These are key questions for any organization thinking about a broad Android rollout or even simple acceptance of Android devices in a BYOD context. The answers may not be what you expect.
[ Mobile security: iOS vs. Android vs. Samsung SAFE vs. BlackBerry vs. Windows Phone. | The truth about Samsung's Knox for Android security. | Bob Violino and Robert Scheier show how businesses today are successfully taking advantage of mobile tech, in InfoWorld's Mobile Enablement Digital Spotlight PDF special report. ]
Depending on whom you talk to, you might hear horror stories about Android security that "prove" the need for multiple solutions to address. Or you might be advised that buying a single tool will obliterate all your Android fears.
The truth is somewhere in between, and before making a serious commitment to Android as a mobile platform, it's important to determine where Android's relevant security issues are and how you can assess their actual risk and remediation.
Android's two fundamental risks
The Android ecosystem has two main security risks, according to mobile security experts:
- The Google Play Store
- The fragmentation of devices and OS versions
The Google Play Store's risks. Android is a truly open OS, and that makes it risky, says Andrew Borg, research director for enterprise mobility and collaboration at research firm Aberdeen. "Unlike Microsoft Windows Phone or Apple iOS, there is no walled garden, and this leads to potential security vulnerabilities when not managed coherently," Borg says.
Google Play (formerly called the Android Market), the digital distribution platform for applications for Android devices, is itself a source of potential security risks. "With Google Play, there is a higher percentage of apps that contain malware, or social engineering to connect to malware, than any other app store by an order of magnitude," Borg says. "It's not a well-policed environment, and these factors continue to create friction or resistance toward greater adoption of Android in the enterprise."
When users download apps from Google Play, they often don't pay attention to the extent of permissions an app can have on their device, says Chandra Sekar, senior director of the Mobile Platforms Group at Citrix Systems, a provider of cloud-based mobility and collaboration products. "They usually just accept the permission during installation," he says. "And more often than not, apps ask for more permissions than they really need."
The security vulnerabilities affecting Android devices can cause actual performance issues and data loss -- not just minor inconveniences.

Team Ratings
M. Andújar
Denied Boateng in the opening moments with a strong hand and it set him off on a decent game. He was confident and decisive as he judged when to come off his line well, aiding his defense deal with balls over the top. Still beaten three times, though.
A. Rolín
The Uruguayan performed well in the first half but fell to pieces after the break. He regularly let the attackers get away from him and failed to pick up El Shaarawy on the equalizer. He struggled to read the game.
N. Legrottaglie
The former AC Milan center back opened the scoring early on with a powerful header that left Amelia with no chance. His presence at the back was vital as he read the play well to intercept possession.
G. Marchese
Locked out the Rossoneri from their right flank with a solid defensive display. He was uncompromising as both Robinho and Boateng struggled to get the better of him in the first half.
P. Álvarez
Managed to keep El Shaarawy quiet during the first half but after Barrientos' dismissal he was more readily exposed. He put in a great challenge on Nocerino when his side was 2-1 down.
L. Castro
Worked hard for his side, chasing the ball down in the final third, but he never really threatened directly. He never seemed to pop up in a dangerous area and spent more time tracking back to increase numbers in the middle.
S. Almirón
A dynamic performance from the midfielder as he supported the attackers as well as chipping in defensively. However, he regularly seemed to run into a dead end and was withdrawn through injury in the second half.
P. Barrientos
Ruined the night for his team with two moments of stupidity. After receiving his first yellow card for simulation, the second came following a ridiculously idiotic kick on Nocerino which offered Milan a route back into the game.
A. Salifu
Policed the midfield well during the first half, keeping shape and closing the space well. But following Barrientos' red he was completely overrun and found it difficult to maintain his influence.
F. Lodi
Showed his quality from a dead ball with a number of quality deliveries, including the one which Legrottaglie headed home for the opener. His craft helped create some of Catania's brightest moments.
G. Bergessio
Showed great pace early on to keep the Milan defense occupied but he also got back to assist his defense. While his tirelessness was admirable, he never really managed to test Amelia.
M. Amelia
Could do little to keep out Legrottaglie's powerful header early on, but will feel let down by his defense's poor marking. Thereafter, he had a relatively comfortable night, despite a few scares from the men in front of him.
K. Constant
Ventured down the left on occasions but looked extremely complacent when defending. He almost gifted Catania a goal around the half-hour mark but his one redeeming feature was a few decent crosses.
F. Acerbi
Was at a complete standstill as Legrottaglie rose to nod in the opener, failing to pick up his man. He was similarly hesitant for much of the night and seemed to take a few moments too long whenever on the ball.
P. Mexès
Stepped out of defense and passed well in the opening stages but should have used his seniority to better guide his team-mates in the first half. Had little to do after Catania were reduced to 10 men.
M. De Sciglio
Made some well-timed challenges but found it difficult to keep track of Castro at times. He offered an attacking outlet down the right all evening but his crossing often let him down.
R. Montolivo
Tried to provide the creativity from deep but mostly ended up sending long passes forwards. He made one drive forward in the first half and was withdrawn in the second half for Emanuelson.
K. Boateng
Got the first shot of the night away but looked frustrated and lazy for much of the first half. But he emerged for the second half a different player and after supplying the cross which El Shaarawy finished, he added a great goal of his own. Perhaps unlucky to be shown a red card in the final minutes.
N. de Jong
Played the game he has become renowned for as he broke apart the play in midfield and distributed it easily to his teammates. He was key to Milan's most dominant spells in possession.
A. Nocerino
It was an all-action performance from the midfielder as he charged up and down the pitch endlessly. He was only denied a potential goal by a brilliant Alvarez challenge, but kept his side flowing well.
S. El Shaarawy
Continued to plug the void left by Ibrahimovic as he once again played a pivotal role for the Rossoneri. He restored parity after the restart and despite missing a great chance 20 minutes later, he grabbed a brilliant second in the final moments to cap an excellent performance.
The Brazilian contributed very little to his side in the first half and was very lethargic. He was similarly apathetic after the break as he missed an absolute sitter in the closing stages, compounding a poor evening.

MIDS Cost-Benefit Group Convenes
BATC has been at the MIDS policy development table for the last three years. The MIDS (Minimum Impact Design Standards) effort represents the next generation of stormwater compliance that will impact BATC members in virtually every future project. These requirements, such as rain gardens and infiltration basins, are part of a group of emerging technologies grouped together as low impact development (LID).
As federal requirements continue to increase the water protection related to site runoff, MIDS best practices will be necessary to meet these federal requirements. The Cost-Benefit Group is looking at the best management practices true benefit, as well as the construction and ongoing costs to maintain them. The group will be modeling actual residential projects to measure the costs in a realistic scenario. The cost-benefit conclusions will provide a valuable measuring stick for all stakeholders interested in the prudence and feasibility of MIDS.

Cruise ship industry holds up in rough waters
Some lines are reporting record bookings despite global economic uncertainties and a series of well-publicized disasters.
Cruise ships have taken a public relations pounding recently.
Unflattering or negative stories seem to appear on a regular basis. There was the fire this past weekend that left the Carnival Triumph adrift in the Gulf of Mexico and thousands of passengers stuck in a reeking nightmare, the deadly emergency drill accident earlier this month on a Thomson Majesty vessel, and outbreaks of what was thought to be norovirus over the holiday season on Cunard's Queen Mary 2 and Princess Cruises' Emerald Princess.
And, of course, there was last year's Costa Concordia disaster off the Italian coast.
It was a difficult 2012 for the cruise ship industry. Negative publicity after the Concordia tragedy slashed earnings early in the year. Then there was the effect of higher fuel prices, the ongoing global recession and the damage caused by Hurricane Sandy to cruise line facilities in the Caribbean and along the U.S. East Coast -- as well as to essential connecting airlines and rail services for cruise ship passengers.
But despite the financial rough seas, the cruise ship industry appears to be bounding back.
Industry giant Carnival Corp. (CCL), whose brands include Carnival Cruise Lines, Holland America, Cunard, Princess Cruises and Costa Cruises, just announced a record number of guests for a single one-week period -- between Jan. 28 and Feb. 3 -- with gross bookings of more than 187,000 guests.
And the company said bookings were at unprecedented levels across its 24-ship fleet.
Carnival competitor Royal Caribbean Cruises (RCL), which owns Celebrity Cruises, reported a decline its fourth-quarter earnings from a year earlier. But the company is expecting a better 2013. And the Wichita Business Journal says Royal Caribbean's booking volumes are about 20% higher from a year earlier.
"We're happy with the strong bookings we're seeing in the United States, but we're unhappy about the weakness we're seeing in many of the European Union countries, most notably Spain and the U.K," said Royal Caribbean CEO Richard Fain during last week's earnings conference call. "Even though the economies in the U.S. and in places like Germany and France still aren't very good, or aren't great, it's really the weakness in Southern Europe that is keeping our yields from truly exciting growth."
Meanwhile, Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings (NCLH), which went public last month, reported better-than-expected fourth-quarter profits and revenue on Monday after the markets closed.
The South Florida Business Journal reports Norwegian plans to use part of the estimated $477.6 million raised by its IPO to pay down its $3.1 billion debt. It's also expected to launch two new cruise ships within the next year, while a third ship is expected to open for business in late 2015.

Spartans Lose 70-69 at Michigan
Feb. 16, 2013
ANN ARBOR, Mich. - The Michigan State women's basketball team fell on the road Saturday at Michigan, 70-69. Senior Jasmine Thomas led the Spartans (19-6, 7-5) with a career-high 21 points.
Junior Klarissa Bell and sophomore Becca Mills each added 15 points, while sophomore Kiana Johnson chipped in 12 points. Bell also led MSU with a career-high six assists and seven rebounds, while Johnson went 4-for-6 from 3-point and dished out four assists.
Michigan jumped out to a 17-8 lead in the first seven and a half minutes, behind 11 points from Kate Thompson. The Spartans answered with a 14-2 run, including 11 unanswered points, to go ahead 22-19, and would take a 32-28 lead into intermission.
The Michigan State lead grew to six (41-35) in the first three minutes of the second half, but the Wolverines kept clawing back and eventually went on a 7-0 run to go up five, 52-47 with 9:48 to go. Michigan's advantage expanded to nine, 63-54 with 4:31 left, but two 3-pointers from Bell surrounded a Thomas basket, getting the game back within one with 2:13 to go. The Spartans were not able to get a stop on the defensive end in the final minutes, losing 70-69.
Michigan State shot 51.9% from the field, its highest percentage in a Big Ten game this season. The Spartans made a season-high nine 3-pointers for the second straight game, going 9-for-18 (50.0%).
Michigan State returns to Breslin Center on Wednesday, hosting Northwestern at 7 p.m.
at the official
