BOSTON — Austin Rivers is not having a rough start to his NBA career, in his eyes. It only looks that way. As far as the Hornets' rookie is concerned, rough times are what his father, Celtics coach Doc Rivers, endured early in his coaching career, before bringing a 17th championship banner to Boston in 2008 and ascending to his current status as one of the best coaches in the game. Compared to those trying early years with the Celtics and the ignominious end in Orlando, Austin Rivers' up-and-down campaign is nothing. "When [the Celtics] won versus L.A., I saw the emotion on my dad's face," Austin Rivers said Wednesday before taking on his dad's team at the TD Garden. "That was probably the happiest I've ever felt for someone else. I was so proud and so happy, just because I've seen my father go through seasons where he's only won 15 games, 20 games, and people have been in the stands holding signs saying, 'Fire Doc.' "You want to talk about a tough time? You think I'm having a to

Gamecast: June 9th at Astros
Ted Lilly (6-4, 3.28 ERA) vs. Brian Moehler (2-3, 6.37 ERA)
Story Lines
I don't know about you, but I'm ready for some baseball. I know the 2009 Chicago Cubs have been far from perfect, but the day just feels better when there is baseball to be watched on TV.
A few stories are making their way through the web. The easiest to pick out is the no-brainer pick of Stephen Strasburg as the No. 1 pick in tonight's first-year player draft. The draft starts at 6 p.m. EST, so I will update the post when the Cubs make their selection. There is no way to predict whom the Cubs might select, but unless 30 teams go crazy and let Strasburg fall, it probably won't get us too excited.
It looks like Rich Harden will make his return to the rotation on Saturday against the Twins. It will be amazing if this is the only DL stint for Rich all season. The currect odds say he makes at least one more trip sometime in late July.
According to reports, Aaron Miles will come off the DL on Wednesday. That means Andres Blanco or Bobby Scales will be sent down most likely, but we will get to that tomorrow.
As for tonight's game, the Cubs will turn to Ted Lilly once again. In you can believe it, Lilly is making his third start in Houston already this season. Too bad, Randy "I can't Win" Wells won't get a chance against the Astro lineup.
Ted has really won me over, and hopefully he will pick up a deserved victory as the Cubs try and avoid extra innings. Is it really possible to play four extra innings games in five games?
Also, tonight should bring the return of Milton Bradley to the lineup. I don't know about many of you, but I'm ready for crazy hot Milton Bradley.
Speaking of hot, it's time to look at some of the hot and not Cubs heading into tonight's game.
Who's Hot
Angel Guzman - Guz picked up his first save of the year when he was thrust into duty on Sunday after every other realible pitcher was used. His ERA is down to 2.28 and is Lou's top bullpen choice right now.
Ryan Theriot - "The Riot" picked up three hits on Sunday, including his 6th HR of the season (It was also his first ever road HR). Theriot scored two runs and has the average over .290 once again.
Who's Not
Kosuke Fukudome - Remember when Fukedome was hitt over .310? Well, all of the sudden he's down to .290. He's current on a 3-for-19 slump. Hopefully this isn't a repeat of last year.
Carlos Marmol - While the bullpen pitched fairly well on Sunday, that wasn't the case for Marmol. He walked two guys before Lou had seen enough. We really need Marmol to get it together.
The Cubs are 3.5 heading into this week, which is where they've been for much of the last couple weeks. It would be nice for the Cubs to make a move on the top of the division in the next two weeks. The Cubs are due for a blowout, and Brian Moehler is the perfect pitcher to give up five or six runs in the first few innings.

The Dodgers need to watch that seventh inning.
It can be a lu-lu.
In the by-the-numbers book late-inning baseball has become, the Dodgers have Brian Wilson to take care of the eighth inning and closer Kenley Jansen for the ninth.
That's the script, and the Dodgers don't divert from the script.
Getting to those two? Well, that's been the problem.
The Dodgers counted on Ronald Belisario on Monday night and he looked like a culprit until a two-run eighth-inning home run by Juan Uribe bailed him out in 4-3 win that sent the Dodgers to the National League Championship Series.
The Dodgers will open the championship series Friday, either at home against the Pittsburgh Pirates or at St. Louis against the Cardinals.
That's four days to figure out how to get past that seventh inning, either with starting pitching or a more effective bullpen patchwork.
Starter Clayton Kershaw, pitching on short rest, got the Dodgers through six innings. He gave up just two unearned runs, but was matched by Braves journeyman Freddy Garcia.
That wasn't in the script. The score was tied, 2-2, when Kershaw exited.
Manager Don Mattingly acknowledged that the seventh inning "has been that inning for us," but said that extending Kershaw further than the 91 pitches he threw "would not have been the right thing to do."
Mattingly said Kershaw, if asked, would not have chosen to come out after six innings, so the Dodgers went with Belisario as the bridge to the late-inning guys.
The right-hander faced three batters and got one out, inducing Chris Johnson to bounce back to him leading off the inning.
Elliot Johnson, the second batter, was 0 for 12 in the series when the switch-hitter stepped in against Belisario.
He was quickly one for 13. Johnson turned on an inside pitch and lined it over the outstretched glove of first baseman Adrian Gonzalez and down the right-field line.
Yasiel Puig tried to cut the ball off with something that looked like a hockey kick save, but the ball slid underneath and by him for a triple.
That brought on pinch-hitter Jose Constanza, who knocked a single into center field to score Johnson and put the Braves in front, 3-2.
Belisario was finished, but not before he fired one more throw: a fastball that sent his glove whizzing past a Gatorade bucket and into the back wall of the Dodgers dugout.
Left-hander J.P. Howell got the Dodgers out of the inning without further damage.

Greece: Athens, The Acropolis, Hat
I thought this little girl was adorably dressed for the BLAZING HEAT! There was literally NO SHADE to hide under over the entire spanse of the Acropolis. I didn't have my trusty straw fedora with me on this trip, like I did in Paris.
In the heat a hat is a smart idea.

SHEBOYGAN, WI (WHBL) - A 17 year old Sheboygan South High School student is back in the county jail awaiting a preliminary hearing on a first degree murder charge. Dorian Torres was formally charged Monday with murdering his father, 41 year old Emilio Torres. Bail was set at 750 thousand dollars cash and a preliminary hearing was set for February 12th. Torres's body was discovered last Thursday after police went to his apartment on Meadowland Drive to check on his welfare. They found the body wrapped in a plastic shower curtain, duct taped and hidden behind a box spring in his bedroom. DA Joe DeCecco said the investigation revealed Torres may have been dead for some time. He said the last contact his ex-wife had with him was January 23. When she tried to contact him the next day, his phone was off and his Facebook page had been deleted. DeCecco said they're pretty sure Emilio was murdered on January 24th, six days before the body was discovered. An autopsy determined the cause of death was a skull fracture caused by multiple blows to the head with a blunt object. Dorian was taken into custody at the apartment where he was living with his father. No motive has yet been established for the killing but, according to Mrs. Torres, there was stress between Dorian and his father and they argued frequently.

Durable and Perfect For Winter!

- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I wore mine all winter and even at points in the summer where bushwhacking was involved. They are super easy to put on, roll up nicely to fit into a pack when not in use and durable. I found them to be refreshingly water resistant as well. My only quip is that I did put a tear into these from a sloppy crampon maneuver at the end of last season. I am planning to sew it closed and take a piece of duct tape and line the inside of the incision with it to ensure that it does stay closed. For the money, get a pair for winter adventures -- stay warm, stay dry, have fun!
Worth the 30$

At this price point you might as well just add them to your cart, they are light and leave ample space underneath should you have on some very thick layering. I have chicken legs and if I wear a light pair of pants I have to tighten them down about as far as they go.

The Verglas is a good gaiter. Tough fabric. I'm about 5'8" and it comes to just below my knees, making it good to wear with shorts.

A good gaiter but I didn't get to take it out too much last year due to a lack of snow. Stayed up on the leg and connected well to my merrell boots.

Great Product

- Gender: Male
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I live in southern Oregon and snowshoe many times every winter, mostly in, and around the Crater Lake area. I?ve had the OR Verglas gaiters in size L for about 6 years and use them with Atlas Series 12 snow shoes. The ?fragile understrap? that everyone seems to be worried about has never been a problem. I wear size 13 boots (La Sportiva for snowshoeing) with lacing down to the toe area and one of the things I especially like about these gaiters is the toe clip reaches all the way to the end of the laces and, therefore, covers 95% of the top of the boot which results in much warmer feet that would be the case without the gaiters. I have never had wet or cold feet with these. I wear Marmot, lightly insulated (Spring/Fall/cool Summer days) hiking pants and use long johns for the really cold winter days and have never had the trapped moisture problem mentioned by one reviewer. OR makes some very nice products and the Verglas gaiter is another.
Awesome! A+++++++++++++++++

Live in Alaska and my husband wears Sorel boots and his pants and socks got wet from being outside working while in the snow. Not anymore! He loves these and comes home dry everyday now! Awesome product! Great deal for $37!!!!!

Member since
You all know it's a more than decent gaiter for the bucks; but what happens when you don't wear 'em when the snow is only a foot deep?
Well, you find post holes is what happens.
And with that snow in the boot.
And the resultant wet socks.
And cold feet.
And numb toes.
I learned my lesson.

using my gaiters to keep the poison ivy off my body.
Member since
I get poison ivy really bad, so when I hike I wear my gaiters and long sleeve shirts. To keep me from getting too hot I wear the gaiters with shorts and i wear the long sleeve shirt unbuttoned. I can honestly say, since I bought these gaiters I have not had any poison ivy...that is about 2 years.
I also wear the gaiters when i hike in the winter, again with shorts. I never really get cold legs because I keep warm enough by hiking. If I do get chilly legs, I pull up my wool socks so that my entire calve is covered with my wool sock and gaiters.
Easy to use, comfy
Member since
These gaiters are idiot-proof (if I can put 'em on, anyone can). They've survived spring and summer seasons over and under rain pants. I've taken them in the snow and had NO problems. The height is ideal over pants, though they look a little goofy when you're wearing shorts, but I'll take goofy over being eaten alive by mosquitoes. The color is nice, too.
These gaiters are durable, comfortable, and lightweight. I would recommend spending the money for them - you'll save even more than I did when I bought them last year. You won't be sorry.
Do what they are supposed to do
Dwayne Vincent
Member since
Just got back from snow shoeing with them. They are solid/waterproof and give you that snug feeling. The lace clip in front was a bit of a chore to get into my boots, and they are a bit tight to close, but once they are on, nothing is getting through them. I did not realize how much snow would have been in my boots, until i made a "nature call" in the middle of the night..
Good stuff
Colin Bayley
Member since
Seem to be pretty durable and water proof so far, I am liking them. My two complaints: 1)The strap securing system at the top of the calf isn't the easiest thing to fasten, especially if you are wearing gloves. It's a little hard to tell if you have the little latch all the way down or not. That being said, I haven't had any issues with it loosening up. 2)I am a little leery of the strap that goes under the boot; I feel like if something gives out, it will either be the strap itself or the buckle.
So far, so good. They keep the snow, water, and mud out and keep my feet much dryer (and thus warmer).

Outdoor Research Verglas Gaiter
Logan Throndsen
Member since
After owning OR Croc's for five years, I was able to use my brother's Verglas gaiters last weekend. All in all, not much of a different between the two while hiking. So the Verglas doesn't use Gore-Tex, but for hiking, light mountaineering, snowshoeing and backcountry sledding these will do the job they intend to do. The strap that secures under the boot seems "flimsy" when compared to the croc's, but OR makes top notch gear and it has shown no wear or tear. Only caveat, the strap would not stay tucked away, and stuck out to the side as I hiked. Minor annoyance, but did not alter performance. Priced lower than the croc's, you are not sacrificing much.
As I have come to experience, OR has made another quality product.

Excellent value

Sure they're not Gore Tex but they're still excellent water proof protection. And the price is right, especially if you can catch them on sale. They add some warmth but aren't as breathable as I'd like. The upper strap can be a bit of a pain with gloves on, make sure it's closed tight.

I've used these gaiters for winter hiking and snowshoeing and they work very well at keeping me dry. Very easy to get on and off. I bought them one size smaller than the sizing chart recommended but they still fit easily over my hiking boots.

Less is more. Porsche took this axiom to heart when conceiving its first niche car, the 356 Speedster. In 1954, the company unveiled a simple, race-worthy roadster available for less than $3,000. With more than 4,822 examples sold, it became the sports car manufacturer's first commercial success. And with it, the Speedster legend was born.
In 1989 Porsche introduced a new interpretation of the Speedster, this time based on the 911 Turbo widebody chassis. The new 911 Speedster featured a low, raked windshield and an elemental roof that hid neatly under twin Speedster humps. Its good looks enabled Porsche to sell 2,065 examples. But from a driver's perspective, it was noticeably heavier and less agile than a base 911 Cabriolet.
In 1993 Zuffenhausen revived not only the Speedster name and look from the 1989 incarnation but also the intent by faithfully returning to the "less is more" philosophy. Built in the wake of the hardcore 1992 964 RS, this final interpretation was to be the most aggressively focused Speedster of all. Zuffenhausen's newest was an austere, lightweight, open-top driver's car. In North America it was priced at $66,000, comfortably $10,000 less than a base 964 Carrera 2 Cabriolet.
Unadorned by extravagant wheel arch flares and with no visible spoilers, the 964 Speedster seethed with pent-up aggression-classic 911 but with a more menacing edge. That air of aggression was accentuated on dark-colored cars as with this Slate Gray example.
With its top closed it looked slightly hunched and kind of awkward. But the top embodied the Speedster's creed. Its operation was manual and it was an unlined, lightweight contraption.
I've driven and worked on many 911s over the years, including the '89 Speedster, but never a 964. Just 936 of these were built, including 14 right-hand-drive and 20 widebody examples. So while there isn't such a thing as an "ordinary" 964 Speedster, this one has more historic provenance than any other: It is the very last one built. It was ordered by Hong Kong businessman Kevin Yeung, and its build commission was approved by Porsche AG on November 2, 1993.
It's critical to remember that at the time Zuffenhausen's main production line was undergoing a dramatic revamp under the leadership of Wendelin Wiedeking, who had just returned in 1991 as head of production before being promoted to CEO in 1993 with the company at the brink of bankruptcy.
North America was Porsche's most important market and Frederick Schwab, PCNA boss, was keen to bring the 993 over as soon as possible to drum up much-needed sales. But first he had to ensure that all remaining 964s (including Speedsters and Turbo 3.6s) were either delivered or allocated before the first 993s arrived.
Zuffenhausen had planned to sell 3,000 964 Speedsters but only received orders for 900 when the order books closed in April 1993. Receiving orders for 13 right-hand-drivers meant the company was unable to break even, let alone earn a profit, and officially all production of RHD Speedsters ceased by June 1993. By that time, Porsche AG agreed to accept this exigent 964 Speedster commission; the main factory line was already working at full capacity to produce as many 993 coupes as possible. As a result, Porsche Exclusive/Sonderwunsch (Special Wish) was commissioned to produce the car. Built by hand at Werk 1 alongside a 964 America GS 3.8 Hardtop Roadster (commissioned by a New Yorker and scheduled to become the last 964 produced), this commission was earmarked as the last 964 Speedster. Legendary Sonderwunsch chief Rolf Sprenger encouraged his client to seize the opportunity to create a truly unique car-an ultra-leicht Sonderwunsch Speedster.

A landlord was left with a $19,000 water bill after a tenant moved out of a northwest Atlanta condo. The city says the owner is responsible for the bill.
Shelly Francis learned about the water bill when she attempted to transfer water services and other utilities into her name after renting out the condo to the same tenant for years
"[The water department clerk] put it into the computer and at that time she said, 'Oh, there is a large balance on this account.' I learned that there was a $19,000 plus balance," Francis said.
Francis said that the city employee turned her that she was responsible for the bill if the tenant doesn't pay it.
Francis said that the city paperwork showed that the account had been in the tenant's name and that the lease agreement spelled out that utilities were not included in the rent.
"I was informed that if I did not pay the balance that they were going to put a lien on myself, on the property," Francis said. "I was really, really stunned. Actually speechless. "
When asked how a small condo could accrue a $19,000 bill, a spokesperson for the water department told FOX 5's Morse Diggs that the department hasn't been aggressively turning off overdue accounts until now.

Love !! Makes my eye lashes look so good! It much better after its been out for a while (Old) ex: I have one thats 2 years old, it works so good now ! With one by one mascara. Great combo!
I like this mascara and did hold a curl on me. I also tried the carbon black but like this one much better. It is a bit difficult to remove though. Will repurchase.
L'Oreal Voluminous Waterproof is the best all-around mascara,
and at a reasonable price.
This mascara really darkened, lengthened, and volumized my short Asian lashes. It also really held my curl all day! It was definitely my everyday mascara until I noticed my lashes had become SUPER unhealthy and dry. ): If it wasn't so damaging to my lashes...T_T
(***It's been about three months since I've stopped using this product. For the first three weeks that I stopped, I applied Vaseline to my lashes before sleeping and now my lashes are a lot longer and healthier!)
More reviews by dancinginthedark07
I LOVE this product! It makes my lashes look so long, the wand isn't messy and what L'Oreal claims is right! This is definitely waterproof! This product stays on all day and gives my lashes a much needed boost. I highly recommend this product. It lasts ALL day!
Cheap, simple, AMAZING product. This is a truly waterproof mascara. I have swam in it, cried in it, and even exercised with it on and it doesn't budge. I love that this mascara is very buildable, so it doesn't clump when you add more coats. It lives up to the hype ladies!
More reviews by macgeekwhaddup
great for swimming!
the thing i recommend is that you apply A LOT of coats!
makes your eyelashes look great!
the thing is i would like it to be thicker, but its very buildable! i dont like it for bottom lashes though, but i use it there anyways...
Just bought this about 2 months ago and I really like it; it goes on great, makes my lashes look thicker and longer.. BUT it is near impossible to remove! I have such a difficult time taking off this mascara even with waterproof eye makeup removers! But if you are looking for a good, heavy-duty reasonably priced, waterproof mascara then this is a good one to go for. Just be prepared to break out the big guns when you try to take it off, lol.
Soooo not waterproof. Does make my eyelashes feathery & pretty for about 2 hours.
Oh, I had such high hopes for this mascara. I mean, some women are DEVOTED to it! But alas, it is not to be for us. I live in intense humidity. Seriously, it feels like getting smacked in the face with a hot, wet towel when I walk out the door (cold wet towel in winter). Regular mascara just oozes off in about 15 minutes, and holding a curl??? Forget it! So, I'm kinda searching for the impossible to begin with. But this stuff is pretty much the antithesis of what I'm searching for. It looks fine when I put it on. I'm a tad underwhelmed with the volumizing aspect, but it is very black, and didn't clump much. However, like all other mascaras, 15 minutes in, I'm all racoon-y on the outer corners. And it's sticky, sticky. My upper and lower lashes stick together, even though I don't wear mascara on my lower lashes. Yuck! And when it comes time to take this stuff off, well, I still haven't figured out how to do that well. I use oil based remover (L'Oreal brand) and it still doesn't come off. I haven't worn it in a week, and the mascara is still very visible along my lash line. Gross! It's probably fine for an evening out, or a day at the waterpark, but I wouldn't use it for an everyday waterproof.

Update to Skype for Linux
An update for the proprietary Skype VoIP client resolves video image display issues among other problems.
Some Linux users saw nothing but blank screens on the first beta version of Skype for Linux, although their webcam drivers worked. In a blog entry Ryan Hunt, who is the project manager responsible for development of the Linux client, explains that Skype now has the ability to let X11 draw the window (non-accelerated X11 overlay output), although X11 video output will not let users scale the image to full-screen mode.
The X11 feature helps users on systems without Xv support. Xv is the X Window system video extension. It seems that Skype needs multiple Xv ports to display its own window and one for the other subscriber. The "xvinfo" command outputs the number of ports used on a system.
Besides video output bugfixes, Skype 2.0 also outputs more debugging information at the console. This will help more technically oriented users to troubleshoot errors, while at the same time helping Skype's vendor discover where users are experiencing difficulty.
In addition to this there have been several minor bugfixes, as listed in the release notes on the Skype website. The bugfixes mainly relate to changes to the user interface for the VoIP client.

Kitchener man's video wins $70K solar panel system for MCC Ontario
Mirko Petricevic/Record staff
A low-key video is going to generate loads of power for Kitchener-based Mennonite Central Committee Ontario.
In the two-minute clip Ken Ogasawara simply strolls down a local tree-lined street, looks into the camera and delivers a monologue about how each person can care for the Earth.
To conserve energy without too much effort, you can turn off your power bars before going to bed. Or if you're more ambitious you can install solar panels on your roof and crank out kilowatts for decades to come.
In short, you can go big or go small.
And in Ogasawara's case, his little video won big.
This past Saturday (Sept. 24) Ogasawara's entry took first prize — a $70,000 solar panel system — in the WattsNext? video contest run by the Ontario Sustainable Energy Association, a non-profit group that promotes renewable energy and community power generation projects.
Video entries were posted online. The winner was determined by the one that collected the most clicks. Ogasawara's video — entitled Go Big or Go Small — attracted nearly 5,000 viewers.
Ogasawara created the video as part of his part-time communications role at MCC Ontario's office in Kitchener. So the panels are destined to be installed atop the relief agency's new office planned for construction in 2012-2013.
Darren Kropf, MCC Ontario's community engagement associate, said making the video and entering it in the contest was a creative way of spreading the agency's "creation care" message. It was also an opportunity to use it as part of the agency's new social media strategy for spreading its values among agency supporters.
After Facebook and blog posts urged people to watch the video, nearly 5,000 tuned-in — more than enough for first prize.
"To win was really a bonus," said Kropf. "Even if we hadn't won we would have felt like it was a success."
He said part of the video's appeal is Ogasawara's script.
"It's funny," Kropf said. "I think we need that kind of humour, particularly in the environmental movement that can very easily lead to guilt."
The film features Ogasawara strolling down the street and speaking to the camera as animated sketches, drawn by Ogasawara's filmmaking partner Jonathan Steckley, appear on screen.
"We like to keep things simple, but very effective," Ogasawara said.
And he hopes winning the solar panel system will brighten their filmmaking days.
"It's a good calling card for future work," he said.
The WattsNext? competition was the first video contest organized by Ontario Sustainable Energy Association, said Kristopher Stevens, the agency's executive director.
The six entries drew more than 7,000 views.
"For the first time, it's great," he said in a brief interview Thursday. "We're talking about doing it again next year."
The video is posted on the MCC Ontario website at http://ontario.mcc.org
You can also view the video on Youtube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FvBaSm-LBks

The organization behind Firefox wants testers to try out a crash-proofing feature in a new alpha release of Firefox.
Security and stability updates will finally come to an end with the release of Firefox 3.0.19, due out March 30.
Mozilla has made strides in alleviating a longstanding CPU usage issue that, in some cases, caused small laptops to overheat.
Mozilla expects to release a snappier version of Firefox in January. Next, version 3.6.5 is planned for this quarter with a significant crash-proofing feature.
The WebKit2 interface is designed to give Apple's Web browser a better capability to juggle multiple computing processes. Also: the first Firefox 3.6.4 beta.
Better performance is high on the list of improvements planned for Firefox 4. If all goes well, the new browser should emerge by November.
After Apple said its iPad doesn't support Flash, Adobe is sticking up for its technology. The Open Web movement challenging Flash has increasing clout--but still plenty of chaos, too.

TACOMA, Wash. (AP) — A Washington state Transportation Department spokeswoman says a section of a concrete pillar has fallen on a Tacoma street during demolition of an old highway overpass, punching a hole in a water line.
A safety buffer was in place and no one was hurt Friday afternoon.
Spokeswoman Claudia Baker said the section of South Tacoma Way would remain closed through Monday morning while demolition plans are reviewed.
A Tacoma Public Utilities spokeswoman said several businesses in the area were without water service Friday afternoon due to the damage to a Tacoma Water main.
The utility cautions people who live and work in the area to report any water that looks dirty — and to avoid drinking it.

Liverpool, 15th October 2010 /PRNewswire/ — It was cards at the ready in Liverpool, as Steven Gerrard and Tim Howard went head to head in the first Merseyside derby of the season. The pair swapped a grass pitch for a cardboard one, in a game that marked the release of the new Topps Match Attax collection.
What should have been a tense affair turned into a stroll in the park for Gerrard's team, as they cruised to an 8-3 victory.
Gerrard stormed into a three goal lead, with Tim Cahill, Robin Van Persie and Bolton's Gary Cahill all on target for the Liverpool star's team. Tim Howard's side quickly hit back through Wayne Rooney as the American international looked to get a foothold in the game.
There was plenty of banter between the two players, who couldn't hide their competitiveness as they battled for control of the game. Gerrard extended his lead through John Terry but Howard's team quickly hit back to make it 4-2.
The comeback was short lived and it was Gerrard himself who put his team in the driving seat, scoring his side's fifth goal of the game. Ashley Young added a sixth giving Gerrard an unassailable 6-2 lead over his Merseyside rival. Vidic and Tevez added the gloss to what was a stunning show of strategy and skill from the Liverpool captain, whose team ran out 8-3 winners.
It was the first time either player had played Topps Match Attax and for Tim Howard it was a real learning experience: "I put Clint (Dempsey) in my team as he's a mate. Friends don't get you anywhere in this game. It's harder than I thought!"
Topps Match Attax, the Official Premier League trading card game, features over 400 cards from all the Premier League clubs and is the best selling collectable trading card game in the UK, with an estimated 1.3 million collectors.
The game involves two players selecting a team of 11 players and 3 substitutes, using attack and defence ratings on the cards to out-score one another. Just like a proper Barclays Premier League match it can become very tactical.
Rod Pearson, Marketing Director at Topps said "As we've seen here today, Match Attax is a fantastic game that's easy to learn but difficult to master. The collection has been a playground phenomenon for three seasons now and continues to be the leading collectable football trading card game in the world."
"It's great to see two top Premier League stars, such as Tim and Steven, playing Match Attax and demonstrating the skill and strategy needed to master this amazing game."
Topps Match Attax is the official Premier League trading card game, with 461 cards to collect. Packets of 6 cards 50p RSP, Starter Packs (Collection Binder, Pitch, 25 cards and exclusive Limited Edition Card) Ł4.99 RSP. Play Match Attax Live and challenge your friends or take on a Barclays Premier League dream team online*.
*Available to Premium Members who have purchased a Ł3.99 Match Attax Live season ticket (for 2010/11 season), i-code inserts found 1 in every 2 Topps Match Attax packets, when entered gives user 2 virtual packets of Topps Match Attax.

A Closer Look At Treatment Options For Neglected Achilles Tendon Ruptures
- Volume 26 - Issue 11 - November 2013
- 6475 reads
- 0 comments
Surgeons often repair smaller gaps (less than or equal to 2 cm) with an end-to-end technique.8 One may also attempt an end-to-end repair for gaps up to 3 cm. In these cases, surgeons may perform tendon mobilization by placing a Krackow locking stitch at the proximal segment and applying distal manual tension. However, the surgeon is cautioned against repairing the tendon with excessive tension and therefore should not hesitate to perform a fascial advancement to close the gap.9,10
Gaps greater than 3 cm will likely require a fascial advancement. A number of options are available with the most common being the gastrocnemius recession, V-Y advancement and a turndown flap.9 For smaller defects (2 to 3 cm), a gastrocnemius recession usually permits end-to-end repair. For larger defects (greater than 3 cm), a V-Y advancement or a turndown flap is often required to restore continuity to the tendon.
Advancement of more than 5 cm is thought to result in marked muscle weakness. Takao and colleagues reported strength deficits up to 23 percent on 10 patients treated with gastrocnemius fascial flaps for neglected Achilles ruptures.11 Us and coworkers noted a reduction in peak torque of up to 23 percent in patients treated with a V-Y lengthening.12 Therefore, one should consider augmenting the V-Y advancement with a tendon transfer.
The flexor hallucis longus (FHL) tendon is an ideal tendon to use to augment chronic Achilles tendon repairs.10 The FHL tendon offers stronger plantarflexion and its axis of contraction is more in line with the Achilles than the flexor digitorum longus (FDL) and peroneus brevis tendons.13 The relative proximity to the Achilles and ease of harvest further support its use, and there is little functional impairment with harvest.9
Case Study: When A Patient Presents With Posterior Lower Leg And Ankle Pain Five Weeks After The Initial Injury
A 42-year-old male presented to the office with ongoing posterior lower leg and ankle pain. He first noticed the pain while playing basketball five weeks earlier but he did not initially seek medical care because he was able to ambulate and the pain was tolerable.
On the physical exam, he had an obvious antalgic gait and increased dorsiflexion with weakened plantarflexory strength in comparison to the contralateral limb. He was unable to perform a single leg heel raise. I evaluated the resting tension position of both feet and his affected foot was in slight dorsiflexion in comparison to the uninjured side.
Physical exam findings were consistent with an Achilles tendon rupture. Given that it was a neglected rupture, I obtained a MRI for a more detailed evaluation and to assist in determining the size of the gap.
After appropriate workup and surgical planning, I scheduled the patient for operative management. We ensured prone positioning of the patient and employed a well-padded thigh tourniquet as well as appropriate prepping and draping from the knee down.
I made an incision proximally at the myotendinous junction and extended it distally along the posterior medial aspect of the Achilles tendon. Placing the incision medial avoids the sural nerve and allows for easier access to the flexor hallucis longus tendon for harvest. One carries the incision down to the paratenon, minimizing undermining and using a no-touch technique for the skin edges. I resected the interposing scar tissue to the level of normal tendon fibers, resulting in a 6 cm gap between tendon ends.

Weekend Box-Office Results: 'Skyfall' Takes Top Spot on Slow Weekend
No one I knew went to the theater this weekend for one of two reasons: One, there were no new movies out this weekend that look good and two, the Pac-Man and Marquez fight was Saturday. I went to my cousin's house to watch the big fight, what did you do? Anyway, Skyfall made it to the number one spot this weekend but is that really an accomplishment since it only made $11 million? Hell, I'll mark it as a success.
Skyfall, like I said before, earned $11 million which is enough to edge it out over Rise of the Guardians. Rise of the Guardians placed second with $10.4 million. The most satifying this weekend was finding out Twilight placed third with $9.2 million. And like clockwork, Lincoln and Life of Pi placed fourth and fifth with $9.1 and $8.3 million respectivley.
Playing for Keeps placed sixth with $6 million. This is the third or fourth film that starred Gerard Butler that flopped and/or failed to be a hit with critics. What does this mean for Butler? Is his career on thin ice? I say no, and I hope not either. He's a great actor with either a terrible manager or he's a poor at picking roles. He needs to do three films in a row to show his acting chops, a film to show his range, and a film to show that he can still kick ass. These films aimed at a female audience are killing his career time after time. Maybe he should follow in the footsteps of Tom Cruise or Jeremy Renner, as actors who can kick ass and have the ability to take on any role.
Here's the top 10:

WorthyPosted by Lawrence Dillon in Uncategorized
Finally saw Rivers and Tides the other night. I recommend it to anyone who is interested in seeing the creative process in action. For those who haven't heard of it, Rivers and Tides is a documentary on the work of Andy Goldsworthy, a Scottish sculptor who works with the materials of nature – leaves, stone, ice, twigs, etc. He typically goes to a specific site, improvises various structures for a few days or weeks with whatever he finds there, then fixes on one element or combination of elements for a defining work.
In most of his pieces, he creates a design or structure that is deliberately fragile enough that nature will reclaim its materials – sometimes in a matter of minutes, sometimes over the course of months or years. Most of his works, therefore, change and decay over time, either quickly or gradually.
The fact that some of his most beautiful pieces were created for an audience of one is a firm rebuke to those who believe that great art must communicate with the multitudes.
Whether or not you appreciate his work, I recommend the film for several reasons. First, anyone who has devoted a life to art will identify with Goldsworthy's feeble attempts to explain what he is doing – about 80% of what he says is unintelligible, but the other 20% is gold. Second, you will rarely see a more perfect wedding of material and form, which is always inspiring. The guy has an amazing sense of design and visual composition.
Finally, you should get the disk for Fred Frith's attractive score, which, like the sculptures themselves, accomplishes much with minimal materials.

Mesquite is an excellent school. My two children both attend and have excelled there. The teachers are too notch. I would highly recommend Mesquite.
#1 school in the Vail District and the Vail School District is ranked at #1 in Arizona. A+ twice.
i attended this school when i young overall it is the best school i have been to the faculty was great the food excelent and the education program was superior than all others i have been to
Over-all, I'm very pleased with my child's progress with this school. If I were to offer one suggestion, however, it would be that I'd like to see the teacher to parent communication line a little more, well, 'more'... There are times when I feel a bit out of the loop of what's going on with my child's classes. At my child's previous school, updates on what was going on came home every Monday stating what was on the agenda for the week. And then, every Friday another update came home with a brief overview on how my child did during the week. I really liked that, during the weekend we could review anything that my child may have had trouble with, and start reading about some of the upcoming studies to get a jump-start.
I have three children that all attend Mesquite. We have been at this school for five years and we love it! Mesquite is an excelling school and has just received the 2nd A+ rating. Mesquite is the only school to have received it twice... let alone two years in a row!! I would give Mesquite 10 stars if I could!
My daughter has attended Mesquite under the 'open enrollment' program for 3 years now. My daughter has some learning challenges and all her teachers have worked with me to make my daughter's learning experience a positive one. I have had very open communication with all 3 of my child's teachers. She currently has Mrs. Hollywood and I could not be more please with her progress! Although our school does several fund raisers a year they all benefit the children and the school. The PTSA at our school is always willing to explain the reason for the fund raiser to anyone who asks. The field trips are not part of the PTSA, but come from the general fund and that has been cut drastically. This is true for all public schools in AZ right now.
My child is in the 1st grade. She has had a hard time adjusting to the amount of work and testing this school does. The teachers don't make the parents feel apart of the school. Half way through the year and have not had one program put on by the kids or field trip. But, every week is a new fund raising program going on.
I am so happy with my child at Mesquite! My oldest just finished 3rd grade. Ms. Irby is the best teacher I have seen! She builds their self esteem while teaching in a caring productive environment. My daughter cried when the year was over and wanted to stay back to be in her class again. My youngest starts kindergarten there this next year, and I was very impressed with the kindergarten round-up. She was so scared but they made her comfortable and she is actually looking forward to starting school. I would recommend Mesquite to anyone! They run a great school!
Excellent school - beyond excellent teachers!
Coming from an excelling district and school in Ohio, this district pales in comparison, but I believe it's the best offered in this area. My son strived to be 'average' in OH, but here is all A's and one B. He had required an IEP before, but here, was transitioned out because it was not needed, which I believe is related to the easier curriculum-the challenge is missing. I'm pleased my son is doing well and no longer requires add'l help, but I wonder at what cost. Will he be prepared for the next school? We are military and move frequently, so I am very aware of the potential for difficulties later on. It's not as much about this district or school, but the school system in general in AZ. Overall, the teachers are great and very caring. They encourage parental involvement and are prompt to return messages and address concerns.
My son attended the preschool here. The staff is amazing. The amounts of knowledge that he learned while attending was exceptional.
Good academics. Developing extracurricular programs. Great parental involvement.
My kindergardner and third grader go to this school and I have absolutely loved it. There is a lot of homework given. There is a lot of parent involvement. I am very pleased with the results my children get from this school. I just wish they had uniforms next.
Great School! Excellent staff & teachers. My child does real well at this school and my child has an I.E.P. This school follows all its resposibilities and takes learning seriously!
Mesquite elem. offers families a wonderful educational experience. There is terrific activities throughout the year. 'Bell to bell' learning is encouraged. We have a 'special needs' son and this school is great about providing him with services. We also love the year-round schedule!
I have had 2 children attend this school for two years. I have been extremely pleased with the staff, leadership, and programs. One daughter started here in the preschool program for special needs children. It was a wonderful experience. For kindergarten she had progressed so much that she was discharged from the special needs program. The only thing I would like to see improved is the program for accelerated students. They do have a program, but it is only for a very select few students. My son didn't quite make it into the program. But, he could have benefited from a few extras in another way. This has been an incredible school, and now that we are moving out of state I am having a very hard time finding a school that can even come close to the quality of this one.
For 5 years our child has attended Mesquite he has rec'd total encouragement in all aspects of his learning. He has rec'd outstanding guidance and understanding from all of his teachers, and he has continuously been encouraged to recognize the importance of education, self-discipline, hard work and excellence. In the Stanford test he has scored in the top 2 percent nationally in 3 areas and in the top 5 percent in the remainder of the areas he was tested. He is in the 4th grade and has been assessed at reading at the 5.9 grade level. What more can you say?

Tickets can be purchased on this website with bank card.
Opening hours are divided into slots of one hour and you are supposed to choose the exact date and time slot to visit the exhibition. The ticket entitles you to enter the museum at any time within the selected time slot.
Please note that the owner of the ticket can enter the museum at any time during the chosen time slot and can stay there as long as he/she wishes, up until closing time. The beginning and ending of a time slot thus indicates the possible time of entry and not its duration.
If the selected time slot seems not to be suitable for you to visit the exhibition you can exchange the tickets to another time slot. To complete this log in on the website and click on the menu My purchases and then select the Details of the purchase and finally click on Exchange tickets.
Buying online tickets for the exhibition implies you will need to print your ticket for yourself. (If you do not have a printer connected to your computer at the moment of the purchase you can print your ticket afterwards as well. In this case you will need to know your customer ID and password. Or you can note down the additional code that will appear on the screen along with the bar code following the payment and provide it when entering the museum. Please make sure you note down the additional code correctly.) The bar code (or additional code) will be checked at the entrance and after that the ticket cannot be used any more.
If you need an invoice you can get it at the office of Jegymester Kft. (1065 Budapest, Bajcsy-Zsilinszky út 31, 1st floor) weekdays from 10am to 4pm.

Museum+ continues in 2014! We look forward to seeing you in 2014 at our Museum+ evenings with extended opening hours and theme programmes.Events are still scheduled once a month on Thursday evenings but at alternating venues: the Museum of Fine Arts and the Hungarian National Gallery (www.mng.hu).The series will be complemented in the summer with Wine Wednesdays in the Hungarian National Gallery. On these occasions various events, guided tours and workshops will be organised around the selected theme of the evening. Introducing a fresh approach we wish to highlight the connections art has with everyday life and bring the fine arts closer to the public to make museum visits a more vibrant and diverse experience for all.
Famous guests have been asked to take on a brand new, challenging role: they will give guided tours of the museum's collections and talk about their favourite works and the selected theme of the evening in a novel and personal way. Visitors will also have the opportunity to experience the joy of the creative process in the workshops and take home the objects they make as mementos. Prominent winemakers will also be introduced on each occasion, whose wine tasting as well as the exquisite specialties and live jazz concerts will make Museum+ evenings a truly memorable experience. Please check always for the latest information on our website.
In 2014 the location of Museum+ events alternates between the Museum of Fine Arts and the Hungarian National Gallery.
