Estimating Long Memory Causality Relationships by a Wavelet Method
AbstractThe traditional causality relationship proposed by Granger (1969) assumes the relationships between variables are short range dependent with the same integrated order. Chen (2006) proposed a bi-variate model which can catch the long-range dependent among the two variables and the series do not need to be fractionally co-integrated. A long memory fractional transfer function is introduced to catch the long-range dependent in this model and a pseudo spectrum based method is proposed to estimate the long memory parameter in the bi-variate causality model. In recent years, a wavelet domain-based method has gained popularity in estimations of long memory parameter in unit series. No extension to bi-series or multi-series has been made and this paper aims to fill this gap. We will construct an estimator for the long memory parameter in the bi-variable causality model in the wavelet domain. The theoretical background is derived and Monte Carlo simulation is used to investigate the performance of the estimator.

Really sorry to hear about your SIL. I hope that her treatment and recovery will be smooth and quick! I;m glad you're able to have them with you, it's better to be with family during these times.
Really sorry to hear about your SIL. I hope that her treatment and recovery will be smooth and quick! I;m glad you're able to have them with you, it's better to be with family during these times.
14 dpo and I temped at my normal time, set my alarm and everything. 98.3!
All that's left to do now is temp tomorrow and hope it doesn't plummet.
The anovulatory cycle scenario is off the table in my mind, but it's replaced with a luteal cyst is my test is BFN. So hoping that's not it and I have a very happy thread to post in the morning!
Kelly: I'm SOOO sorry to hear the news about your SIL. I am praying that all resolves with the best possible outcome!
Natalie: Eek! 98.3! That's definitely promising for 14dpo!! for good news in the morning. Please, try not to ruin Saturday for all of us.
AFM: We'll know Thursday/Friday next week whether this cycle was a success or not. Wouldn't it be FANTASTIC if we were pregnant at the same time??
Natalie ...woooooot !! Omw , so hopeful for you everything crossed for a high temp tomorrow and a bfp !!!!!!!!!!!
Dorcas...down to the 1ww !!! Hoping and praying for great news !!!!!! You ladies need to get that July-Aug-Sept dd room rolling (and maybe I'll get to join you with an Aug/Sept dd) !
I'm feeling more optimistic today after a good night's sleep (slept 8pm-8am with a few brief interruptions) .
I got pg with my 6yr old after 5 consecutive losses (7 all together) and bc; I also got pg with my 3yr old after 2 losses in a row (9 all together) and birth control. So maybe bc after 3 losses will do it....hoping !
Really praying my u/s in 4wks will show no cyst and lots of antrals. I remove my last patch Nov 14th so my u/s should be Nov 15-20 sometime.
You know, Natalie, the suspension of your FF account really cramps my stalker tendencies. ;)
Kelly, I'm SOOO glad you're feeling more optimistic. Sounds like BC really is a good "restart" button for your system.
AFM: periodically this week I have been waking up to a runny nose ... In the middle of the night! It feels like I'm trying to start a cold, but it's not happening. Granted we had to turn the heat on this week, but this doesn't feel like allergies. This has never been a pregnancy symptom of mine. Has it been for anyone else?
Well.....97.9 lame.
I was hoping that it was just because the heat was off all night and I was freezing when I woke up. I temped again at 7:55 and it was 98.4 but the adjuster confirms the 97.9 as the adj temp.
Crappy thing is that's not low enough to induce AF so I'm still waiting. I saved my FMU to use on a cheapie anyway but I'm not thinking it's going to be pos.
Ha...just read I have to wait a week after starting bc to dtd without other protection because I didn't start it on cd1 (u/s was cd3). We have actually spent more time preventing conception/abstaining this year than ttc...how ridiculous is that for a couple who want to have a baby, oy !!
Is it Nov 14th yet (last day of bc)
Really praying for a sticky bfp with our first round of injectables. I talked with dh last night and we have other financial commitments that take priority next year so we will only be able to do natural cycles after the 1st of the year. Hoping for the best
That temperature doesn't say AF to me, Natalie. Why are you keeping us in suspense?? Are you going to test?? ;)
Kelly, sheesh sorry about another case of "waiting" to pop up. Thanks for chiming in about the running nose thing ... it's the strangest thing. I am hopeful it's a good sign!! T-minus 1 week now.
I'm super hopeful for us all. I want us to be in the July/August/September rooms together!! (not that the rooms really have borders or anything ...)
Dorcas...you totally need to go keep Natalie company in the Jul-Aug-Sept dd room...hoping and praying to see your bfp this week !!!
Afm...2wks and 2d until my last patch . I'm really hoping af shows within a few days of stopping it but I know it can take up to a week. Either way, once that patch comes off I will be back in the game...cannot wait !!!
I had a really low few days...lots of crying, angry feelings, and despair but I started feeling better last night and today I feel ready to face the next couple weeks of waiting !
We'll start backing up the dump truck!!! ;)
I am feeling so optimistic (lol, and impatient) about my next cycle ! I just have a feeling it's going to be it...super excited to remove my last bc patch 2wks from tomorrow !
My consultation with the new RE is tomorrow...looking forward to it but nervous too . My appt isn't until 2:45 so I have lots of time to get ready and get there...lol, nothing worse than feeling rushed and unprepared!
Rachel...I miss you! If you're lurking let us know how you're doing !!!
Kelly, what kind of bc are you on? I've never heard of the patch.
Kelly: I'm so glad you're feeling optimistic again! I'm excited about the new RE!!! I can't wait to hear how it goes. Good info on the patch bc I've always hated bc, good to know there might be a good alternative for me should the need arise.
Laura: Sheesh, your chart overlay looks like a nearly perfect match. that good things are coming your way!!
AFM: Hoping for a nice rebound temp in the morning! I really hope I get a BFP this week because I know Natalie must be lonely in those DD rooms by herself. My wish is solely for Natalie's benefit, of course.
Thanks Kelly. I think I'm going to ask for that.
I'm going to call my dr now and hopefully they'll call it in so I can get started on it today.
My dr called in the bc. They said to wait til Sunday to put it on. Does that sound right?

Ottavio Bottecchia (pronounced [otˈtavjo botˈtekkja]; 1 August 1894 – 14 June 1927[1]) was an Italian cyclist and the first Italian winner of the Tour de France. He was found dead by the roadside; the reason remains a mystery.
Bottecchia was born to a poor family of nine children. He went to school for just a year[2] and became a bricklayer.[1] He married and had three children. In the first world war he joined the Bersaglieri corps of the Italian army. During the conflict he received a bronze medal.
With the end of hostilities he became an avid competitive cyclist. He won the Giro del Piave, the Coppa della Vittoria, and the Duca D'Aosta in 1920 and the Coppe Gallo a Osimo, the Circuito del Piave and the Giro del Friuli in 1921.[3]
Professional racing[edit]
His 5th place finish in the 1923 Giro d'Italia, the leading 'isolate' (rider without a team) attracted the leading French rider, Henri Pélissier, who asked him to join his professional team, Automoto-Hutchinson,[2] in 1922.[3] Pélissier had just left the J. B. Louvet team after an internal row and had taken another rider, Honoré Barthélemy, with him. Automoto was a French company that also sold in Italy. Automoto saw the chance not only of winning the Tour de France but of having a further Italian rider to stimulate foreign sales. Henri Pélissier said he had seen Bottecchia ride the Giro di Lombardia and Milan – San Remo and the team signed him.[4] The new recruit arrived, said the writer Pierre Chany, with a skin tanned like an old leather saddle and creases to his face deep enough to be scars. His clothing was ragged and his shoes so old that they no longer had any shape.[4] His ears stuck out so far that the Tour organiser, Henri Desgrange referred to him as "butterfly".[2]
|The only words of French he could manage were: "No bananas, lots of coffee, thank you."[5]
It was as a professional that Bottecchia learned to read, taught by his friend and training partner, Alfonso Piccin. Together they read the Italian sports daily, Gazzetta dello Sport, and clandestine anti-fascist pamphlets protesting at the rule of Benito Mussolini.[2]
In 1923, he came fifth in the Giro d'Italia. That same year, he won a stage in the Tour de France and came second overall. He led the Tour from Cherbourg after the second stage and wore the yellow jersey of leader as far as Nice. There he passed it on to Pélissier, who won with the prediction: "Bottecchia will succeed me next year."[5] Such was the reaction in Italy that the Gazetta dello Sport asked a lire from each of its readers to reward him. Mussolini was first to subscribe.[2]
In 1924 he won the first stage of the Tour and kept his lead to the end, the first Italian to win. But here is the first of the mysteries in his life. Bottecchia wore the yellow jersey throughout the race except for the stage closest to Italy, which went from Toulon to Nice.[2] That day he wore his team jersey, one of several in the peloton and therefore less obvious. The Tour's paperwork vanished when it was taken south from Paris in 1940 to escape the German invasion of the second world war and none of the newspaper reports of the period explains Bottecchia's decision.
- One theory is that he was afraid of being mobbed on the road by Italian fans, who would have delayed him or inadvertently knocked him off his bike.
- Another theory is that he wanted to avoid Mussolini's Black Shirts. Reading anti-fascist tracts to become literate suggests anti-fascist leanings. Bottecchia's tyres had been punctured before the start of some stages and fascist opponents could have been behind it.
- A further theory is that Bottecchia had made uncomplimentary remarks about an earlier Italian champion, Costante Girardengo, and that he worried fans would take revenge.
Bottecchia wore the yellow jersey again after Nice and all the way to the finish. Reports say that he sang as he rode:
|I have seen the most beautiful eyes in the world but never as beautiful eyes as yours.[2]
He wore his yellow jersey all the way to Milan in the train[2] - travelling third class to save money.
|By then his French had improved to: "Not tired, French and Belgians good friends, cycling good job."[5]
He won the Tour again in 1925 with the help of Lucien Buysse, who served as the first domestique in Tour history. Accused in 1924 of winning without trying, Bottecchia won the first, sixth, seventh and final stage. He was never the same after that and dropped out, "weeping like a child",[6] during a thunderstorm in 1926. Buysse emerged the winner. The writer Bernard Chambaz said:
The unpleasant hand of destiny fell on his shoulders. It was as though the misery of his origins had caught up with him. Dark thoughts and a presentiment of the future haunted him. He abandoned the Tour of 1926 on a stage which those who were there described as apocalytpic because of the cold and the violence of the wind. He went home, unhappy. He no longer had the heart to train. He feared that he'd been 'cut down by a bad illness'. He coughed and he ached in his back and his bronchial tubes. The following winter, he lost his younger brother, knocked down by a car.[2]
Death mystery[edit]
On 3 June 1927, farmers outside the village of Peonis, near Bottecchia's home, found him on the roadside. His skull was cracked, one collarbone and other bones broken. His bike lay some distance away on the verge and wasn't damaged. There were no skid marks to suggest a car had forced him off the road and no marks to the pedals or handlebar tape to suggest he'd lost control.
Bottecchia was carried to a bar and laid on a table.[2] A priest gave him the last rites. From there he was taken by cart to hospital in Gemona. He died there 12 days later[2] without regaining consciousness.[7] The verdict was sunstroke but was widely dismissed for Bottecchia was used to the heat and a veteran of the Tour de France. He had also been found in the morning, before the day became hot. Bernard Chambaz of L'Humanité said:
Accident or assassination? The accident theory, favoured by justice, on the accounts of witnesses and a medical examination which also referred to several fractures, was based on an assumption of an illness, sunstroke and a fall. In fact, the inquiry was quickly closed. The theory suited everybody: the Mussolini régime, the presumed killer and even - it's sad to say - the family, now sure of a large insurance payout.[2]
The only events which appear certain are that that morning, Bottecchia rose at dawn and asked for a hot bath to be ready for him when he returned after three hours. He rode to his friend Alfonso Piccini's house to go training together as on other days. Piccini decided not to go and Bottecchia went to see another friend, Riccardo Zille. He had other things to do, however, so Bottecchia set out alone.[8] Theories abound from then on. The priest who gave him the last rites is said to have attributed the death to Fascists unhappy about Bottecchia's more liberal leanings. But Bottecchia was a barely literate racing cyclist at the end of his career, better known in France than in Italy, and not a politician or celebrity who could sway opinion. There's a theory that Fascists murdered him for speaking against Mussolini. An Italian dying from stab wounds on a New York waterfront even claimed he had been employed as a hit man.[2] He named a supposed godfather, although nobody of the name was ever found. But Mussolini had been first to contribute to the Gazzetta dello Sport benefit fund.
Some suggested a fight. But a fight leaves cuts and bruises to both sides. Much later, a farmer in Pordenone said on his deathbed:[2] "I saw a man eating my grapes. He'd pushed through the vines and damaged them. I threw a rock to scare him, but it hit him. I ran to him and realised who it was. I panicked and dragged him to the roadside and left him. God forgive me!" The problem with the story is that to throw a rock large enough to break a man's skull demands being so close to the victim that literally throwing it isn't necessary. Bottecchia was a local hero, on his bike, easily recognised so close to home. The farmer would have known him. Also his body was found in Peonis, not Pordenone. The farmer said he dragged the body off the farm and onto the roadside. If that was true, how did the body end up 35 miles (55 km) away? The final riddle is what Bottecchia was doing in a vineyard in June. Grapes don't ripen until late summer.[9]
"Bottecchia was a revelation. His name will stay inseparable from the Tour de France."
Bottecchia bicycles[edit]
In 1926, Bottecchia began working with frame-maker Teodoro Carnielli to manufacture racing bikes, taking advantage of his Tour de France knowledge.[3] The business expanded under the Carnielli family after Bottecchia's death. In 2006 more than 50,000 Bottechia bikes were sold in Europe.[3]

Bottecchia is mentioned at the end of Ernest Hemingway's The Sun Also Rises.[11]

I'm sorry. As soon as I get a phone call or any type of occurrence in real life it immediately takes priority over whatever I happen too be doing in WoW. Whether it be a short unimportant phone call or a long pressing one, I can guarantee that I will be that one player who afked out on Saph because of real life stuff.
The possibility of a life changing phone call (whether it be good or bad) > downing a raid boss in a videogame. I love WoW just as much as the next guy but when something is up, I gotta put away the mouse and keyboard and man up to other challenges in life.
Then don't sign up for your guild's progression raids, because you clearly don't care about the 9 or 24 other real life people in your hobby activity. AFK'ing over and over on progression content causes wipes even if 1-2 people are gone, so excuse yourself from those situations and have fun on the phone.
She wasn't saying that you shouldn't take pressing calls. If you get a call from your mom saying there's a family emergency or something, OF COURSE you should take the call. Nobody's arguing that.
What she's saying is that if you pick up the phone and it's your friend wanting to talk about the crazy party last night, you should tell him to call you back later or that you're busy at the moment.
I think the big mistake people make is saying that WoW is completely unimportant because it's a video game. Yes, it's a game, yes, it's just for fun. But you have to remember that when you're raiding, there are 9 to 24 other people who have also committed several hours of their time to this activity.
Emergencies happen, and they willy always trump WoW. Lisa never said otherwise. She's just saying that when you've committed to an activity with 24 other people, you need to be able to say "I'm busy" when it's not an important call.
I don't see the problem with answering your phone when it rings. Exactly, it might be something important.
But if it's *not* important, don't sit for ten, twenty minutes gabbing away when you know you've got people waiting for you. Explain that you're a little busy right now, and you'll get back to them as soon as you get a chance.

i hate people that answer their phone in the movies. jerks.

Are you guys kidding me? Grow up and stop using the whole "ARE YOU GONNA ANSWER YOUR PHONE IN A MOVIE THEN?!" argument. No I am not going to but I sure as hell am when I'm playing a video game.
Also when did I ever say I was going to stay on the phone for 20 minutes and chat it up with the local pizza hut about how my pizza is going to be delivered soon. Ill answer the phone and still play WoW no problem. But if its an important pressing call or a real life issue I will afk and I won't be sorry.
All I'm saying is you never know who is on the other end of the telephone line. I may be raiding but I will still pick up my phone. The conversation that follows is a whole different story.
kidandroid said...
Oh and Peagle, how does that apply to how I live my life? Were all talking about one thing here WoW. WoW.com. WoW Raiding. WoW PvP. I'm talking about how I answer my phone when I play WoW. The way I handle things when doing other things are different than how I handle things when I'm playing a character in a video game.
That is unless you sir believe that WoW is life. Then I have no argument against you.
This is the problem in living in a culture where cell phones going off all around you are a constant occurrence. Some, albeit not all of us, have grown up with the perception that we are so important and the person calling is in such dire need of us, that we have no choice but to answer the phone.
What I don't understand about the need to pick up the phone is WoW is my personal dead time. I use it to get away from the crap at the office or family drama that may be going on. The better half understands and respects this. It would do us all some good, whether we are the one calling during a raid or the one answering, to put things into some perspective and not answer the phone just because Susan has a fight with her boyfriend for the 100th time this week and they need to make someone their personal drama trashcan.

Here's a tip Kidandroid. If its truely a "life-changing phone call"... they'll leave a message, or they'll call back.
Or look at your Caller-id ( assuming its a cell ). That should give you a hint who's calling and probably.
If you really want to live your life with this attitude then don't raid. Have some consideration for the other 9 or 24 other people that have to wait on you every time you AFK.
If you play a game of football, do you keep your cell-phone in your sock in case you get a life-changing phone call mid-game?
I think Robert M summed it up quite well.. the adults in the audience all remember that a phone never used to be a 100% guaranteed instant contact mechanism at all times. If you phoned someone up and they weren't home, you just dealt with it and called them later. Civilization survived. Just as it survived for thousands of years with no phones.
kidandroid said...
What is it with you people and assuming that the way I handle phone calls when playing WoW translates to other activites? I'm an avid basketball player and most of the time calls are ignored when I'm playing games with my homies. However when I play WoW I am more inclined to pick up my phone because in my perspective WoW is a videogame that is played casually and I will afk or not depending on what situations occur. I mean for chrissake I'm sitting down at my desk when I play WoW, and when I'm playing basketball I'm dribbling up and down a court at the local park. Which situation would leave you more inclined to pick up a phone if you were to do so?
Most of you are being quite histrionic in regards to my comment. Don't twist it and make assumptions about the way I live my life. If my phone rings during a raid, I will most likely take the action of picking it up. If it isn't important I'll tell the person on the phone I'm busy, if it is I would take no hesitation in afking in a raid. Perhaps I worded my first comment wrongly. But please do not be so melodramatic as to assume that's how I live my life.
edit* Sorry for the repost. blast this reply system!

The biggest issue I see is that, when playing MMOs, it's easy to forget that there are 9 or 24 other "real lives" in there with you. The problem isn't that you're playing a video game. The problem is that you're playing a video game with other people. The game itself may be "just a game" but the people playing it with you are not.
If you have better things to do, then do them, but don't ask 9-24 other people to work their schedules around you. Excuse yourself from the raid. You wouldn't expect it elsewhere, so don't expect it just because you don't have to look these people in the eye.
Things happen, and nobody is asking for anything unreasonable. Emergencies come up. That's what caller ID is for, and if it's important, they'll probably leave a voicemail and/or call back. The only thing we as people ask of anyone else is common courtesy-- whether or not you're in the same room with us.
kidandroid said...
I agree totally with you, in fact I ranked you up Almoderate. I guess I should have tackled that whole problem in the beginning because looking back on my comments, I failed to address the other players in the raid, really I was just talking about the way I myself handle phone calls in WoW.
In regards to other players of course I would let them know if why I afked or If I was going to and I would more than gladly excuse myself from the raid. When I say a phone call takes priority over WoW it means I will pick it up when it rings. Answering a phone call is different than having a conversation on the phone. Whether it is important enough to afk depends on the call. I apologize for failing to mention anything about other raiders now I feel like a complete douchebag. I can see the impression I put on you guys (selfish douche bag internet prick = me)
Well that just proved you are self centered kid. You are going to make 20something ppl wait on your phone call? If its not important then don't pick it up. How would you feel if you were constantly waiting on other ppl mucking around? Your short statement says so much about you. Go play another, less social game if you cant manage to be considerate of your team members.

Jets coach Rex Ryan benches Sanchez, to start McElroy vs. Bolts
East Rutherford, NJ, United States (4E Sports) – New York Jets coach Rex Ryan has decided to bench his four-year starter Mark Sanchez in favor of Greg McElroy, who will make his first career start against the San Diego Chargers at home.
Aside from Sanchez, Ryan's decision is also a stunning blow to No. 2 quarterback Tim Tebow, who was expected by Jets fans to take over playmaking duties.
A source said that the organization is concerned about potential backlash from Ryan's decision to pass over one of the most popular players in the league in favor of a third-string quarterback.
The source added that Ryan may try to find a way to incorporate Tebow into the game plan to appease his millions of fans.
Ryan's decision to replace Sanchez came after the quarterback threw four interceptions and lost a fumble in the 14-10 loss to the Tennessee Titans Monday.
The loss mathematically eliminated the Jets (6-8) from playoff contention.
This season, Sanchez has committed a league-high 24 turnovers, including 17 interceptions. His two-year turnover total is a staggering 50.
In March, Sanchez signed a contract extension through 2016, and is due an $8.25 million guarantee in 2013. It means he probably will be back in 2013 but his role as starter is unclear.

Special Report
It's little wonder that publishers love e-mail newsletters: At their best, e-newsletters can be powerful generators of sponsorship revenue and Web site traffic, communicating with highly targeted, highly engaged audiences that have opted in to receive must-have information. The challenge, however, is to provide that information while battling rendering issues, avoiding list fatigue and rising above noise from competing e-newsletters and an ever-growing number of new media options.
Complicating matters is the fact that many media companies erroneously believe that because e-newsletters are relatively easy and cost-effective to publish, they don't require much care and feeding.
So many times in this business we're out looking for the cool new thing, and there's so much money left on the table from the things that are very well-known and well-accepted but just aren't being done well, said Jeff DeBalko, chief Internet officer of Reed Business Information. Newsletters definitely fall into that category. ...

AUGUSTA– This is how scripts are supposed to unfold. The carnival act, complete with airplane banners and a daily SWAT team, dominates early in the week. Sanity and sport slowly take over. By the end of a drama-filled Sunday, complete with an episode of "When Pine Trees Attack," the Masters has its perfect storyline and certainly its perfect ending.
Phil Mickelson won the Masters. He was met walking off the 18th green by his wife, Amy, who had traveled to her first tournament since being diagnosed with breast cancer 11 months ago. She had spent the entire week at the family's rented Augusta home.
Some moments in sports lift us more than others. This was one of them.
"I really want to recognize my family and my wife," Mickelson said at the awards ceremony, his voice cracking. "We've been through a lot this year. It means a lot to share some joy together. It's something we'll share for the rest of our lives."
Mickelson has been criticized in the past for perceived phoniness, justified or not. But feelings don't get more genuine than what we witnessed this week. When he first met with the media on Tuesday, he gushed about the possibility that his family might be joining him at a tournament for the first time since last May.
The next day, his three children caddied for him in the Par 3 tournament.
Amy stayed home, mostly in bed. Until Sunday. Just as Mickelson's second shot bounced onto the 18th green, his wife and children emerged in the gallery. After sinking the clinching putt that enabled him to finish at 5-under for the day and and 16-under for the tournament, Mickelson hugged his long-time caddy and close friend, Jim "Bones" MacKay. Then he walked off the green and he and Amy embraced for what seemed like forever.
"I don't normally shed tears over wins," he said later.
He won by three shots over Lee Westwood. A little further down the list: Tiger Woods at five shots back. He was the story (for better or worse) until golf took over. Woods' strong moments Sunday (like going
eagle-birdie-birdie in one stretch) were snuffed out by too many bad ones (five bogeys).
As he put it, "I'm not there yet."
Just as well. This was a Masters story, not a tabloid one. It has been a struggle for Mickelson. He has missed practice time with his wife and mother both being treated for breast cancer. He had only one top-10 finish in seven tournaments before this week.
Oh, and it gets worse: On the eve of the final round, Mickelson's oldest daughter fractured her wrist roller-skating. Dad took her for X-rays at 10 p.m. He didn't get sleep until 1 a.m.
Well, it's only a major.
He started the day one shot back of Westwood. Then came one of those "Why me?" moments on the second hole. Mother nature attacked. Mickelson was lining up for a 10-foot putt when a pine tree dropped a stamen directly in the line of fire between the ball and the hole, just as he was in his backswing. The putt hit the pod like a speed bump. A potential birdie went kaput.
Mickelson: "You have to wonder: Is somebody out to get you?"
He grinded all day. Tee shots on nine, 10 and 11 veered off course and took refuge in pine straw. But Mickelson battled back for important pars. A birdie on 12 gave him his first lead.
On the par-5 13th, either greatness or fate took over. His tee shot went into trees again. With a one-shot lead, conventional thinking was to play it conservative. But that's not Mickelson. He drove a 6-iron and the ball screamed between the trees, kissed off the grass just over a creek and bounced to within three feet of the cup. Potential disaster turned into a near-clinching birdie and a two-shot lead.
Mickelson: "I needed to trust my swing and hit my shot."
The rest of his round was window dressing.
It was Mickelson's first PGA win since The Tour Championship at East Lake last September. It was his third Masters title, putting him in a class with Jimmy Demaret, Sam Snead, Gary Player and Nick Faldo.
But numbers were an afterthought Sunday. And his family was waiting for him outside of the interview room.

Great tournament, excellent play by a number of players.
Also, Jeff: your coverage of the major story-lines and the quality of your writing was truly OUTSTANDING this week. I'd say you were never better, even though there was no ghost-writing by the Count.
April 11th, 2010
9:15 pm
I have never seen greater irony. This week was all about how Tiger has treated (insulted, disgraced) his wife. And at the end of the tournament, it was about Phil showing his wife that she is the most important thing in the world to him. I truly hope that Tiger can comprehend this and devote his life to his family. I think he can man up and do this. I hope so. I claim to be no better than Tiger, but I also have learned that Phil is the kind of man we should emulate when it comes to family.

What the hell are you talking about Phil's perceived phoniness? I am a big time golf fan of more than 35 years and follow the game intently, and I have never heard anyone say that they think Phil is in anyway phony. Where do you come up with this stuff? I was suprised in one of the previous blog's when you didn't know about Darren Clarke's with dying of breast cancer and his triumphant return in the ryder cup a few years back. It was a huge golf story. I guess one could assume that you don't know much about golf, but somehow you have managed to claim the game's most liked player as phony. Amazing.

after reading and watching that philandering hypocrite for the past 5 months, wasnt it great too see someone who actually represents family values take home the hardware?
April 11th, 2010
9:27 pm
My family and I have never watched or followed golf – until this tournament. By chance, we were channel surfing and tuned in Friday and were increasingly fascinated by the game. I would have to say my own interest in the game was spurred on by having watched Phil Mickelson play in the first few minutes of tuning in Friday. I'd never seen or heard of him before. I didn't know his personal struggles. But his focus, sportsmanship, creative comeback plays and good-natured smile fascinated me. Today, we watched the whole Masters championship game from beginning to end.
The more I learned about him as the game went along, hearing about his personal life and watching him play, the more I liked him. So though I was watching every player with interest and rooting for the best shots, Phil was in my mind as the one I wanted to win. Come to find out, the others in my family felt the same way. So when he hit that final shot, the cheers rang out at my home as well as at the course. And when Phil embraced his beautiful wife Amy, the tears ran down our cheeks as well. What a perfect and wonderful time to have chosen to watch golf! And what a champion to have rooted for!

layinlow, you don't know what you're talking about. Lots of people (unfairly, IMO) think Phil is a phony; see Joe Posnanski's excellent column on si.com (http://www.golf.com/golf/tours_news/article/0,28136,1981101,00.html).
Regarding the tournament, this was awesome. Mickelson has truly established himself as the anti-Tiger; and for once, that's a good thing!
April 11th, 2010
9:45 pm
What a fantastic day this was. Phil Mickelson did what it took, and he made the shots when he had to. Seeing him on the 18th green, hugging his caddie and then hugging his wife, THAT is what it is all about. THAT is a great ending.
Congratulations to Phil Mickelson. And, in a strange way, thanks – for giving the media in Augusta something worthwhile to cover.
April 11th, 2010

Louisville slugger, you're proof that Phil is a phony is providing a broken link with no story? I have NEVER heard anyone in the golf world claim Mickelson is phony. His interaction with the fans is legendary and that smile and appreciation he shows to the golf fans is fake? Today on number 11 in the heat of the battle his tee shot hit a fan standing behind the trees. Mickelson takes the time to give the guy a golf glove even though he is in an intense battle for a major championship. Does that sound like a phony? The big phony in golf is Tiger Woods, not Phil Mickelson.

The shot out of the trees on 13 breamed with confidence in his game. The rest is history. Mickelson is what manhood and responsibility is all about.

Layinlow, Most of the players (those who know him best) perceive Phil as a phony and a self-promoter. Guys like Vijay Singh, who aren't self-promoters, are more popular among the players. You know Phil as the guy who smiles and interacts with the people. He's the people's champion, but the players don't like him that much. FWIW. Yeah, anyway Phil's the man. He's only 10 majors behind Tiger. Maybe he can catch Eldrick if he's still in his prime at 70. But probably not.

Focus Fanatic
Focus Stories
lets hear them! whether their funny, strange or weird.
1) well.... i was at work one morning and across the street theres a black 05-07 sedan that i originally THOUGHT was an ST but turned out to be an SES w/ SAP. on this particular morning the guy got in it and backed up out of his driveway. and as he was doing so he was backing up over his trashcans... in the Focus. lol we all just laaauuuugggghed. that Focus was not going anywhere and hes just crushing his trashcans. finally the guy gets out and just hurls his trashcans in yard and gets back in and drives away. he had to be pissed lol.
2) about a month ago maybe this white 00-04 ZX3 comes in and like an ass just parks in front of the service bays. i took off for lunch so w/e service he wanted my co-worker would have to do. i come back from lunch and see it up in the air. i see he's getting 4 new tires put on. but then i look at his wheels and they're just covered in layers....... of dirt. so much dirt that it'd affect the balance. so i had to scrape off all that dirt off the wheels to get a good balance. i had to sweep up all the crap off the floor which didnt come off easy either!!! God i hate when cars w/ wheels like that come in the shop.
3) this one was today and is short!! so for lunch today i went to Red Robin and parked next to a 2012 sedan. as im sitting waiting for my food 2 elderly couples stop in front of my Focus and the red 2012 and look at them both. they seemed more interested in the 2012 but it looked like they were looking back & forth a bit at both of them. just thought it was cool somewhat. lol
i've got more but they're not on the top of my head at the moment.
Focus Enthusiast
So, because I haven't tinted my windows (yet), I decided to put something in my back window. Well, I decided to start an Angry Birds collection because I have a bird (see avatar). So I finnaly started a collection in my window and have a yellow, the standard red, and Blu and Jewel from Rio. I also have a pig, but he allways falls, so he is never really in the window. As I am sitting in my car, waiting for my girlfriend to get off of work, I notice this little boy pointing at my car. Whatever. He probably just noticed them Thats all. Nope. He proceded to run up to my Focus, and practically climb on it to get a better look at my birds. The look on his mothers face was priceless. It was a mix of "aww! they are cute!", "wow he really wants those", and "HOLY S! My kid is climbing on this car and they are in it!". She promptly pulled the kid away and I never saw them again.
But aparently, while I was inside McDonalds one day, my roommates girlfriend saw this family get out of their minivan. One noticed my birds and proceded to go on an extremely useless tirade of "Angry Birds are stupid and why are they such a fad!? I HATE THEM!" All because of my car. Made a day and somehow ruined a day too!
Focus Jr. Enthusiast
Mine is what happened to me a couple days ago, well more like what I did! I am new to driving a stick, I learned pretty quick but still having some timing issues with the clutch and gas when I feel rushed.
I was driving through the parking lot at my college when I chose a lane to go into to find a spot, I stopped to wait for a lot of police academy students to pass. Well a couple of them stopped and waved for me to go but there was a car behind them coming up and I wasn't sure what to do immediately. Well, I then decided to just go for it but I didn't release the clutch enough and gave the car too much gas so I basically screeched my tires then jolted forward a couple times. I was so freaking embarrassed but I continued on and put a big fat smile on my face as I turned in front of those students. My car is bright race red so I am sure they will remember me!
Focus Fanatic
alright i got another. today a Focus came in for an alignment and 3 tires. i mounted the 3 new tires, torqued them on the car and noticed a lug nut on the left rear wouldn't thread on. i search through my co-workers drawer for one and picked one. it didnt do much better so i made the decision to give the guy one of my stock lugnuts (i have a bag of them in my glove box). it threaded on w/ ease. if the event comes i ever need to put my stockers back in then ill try to get one from the dealer (and risk the wallet rape).
Focus Fanatic
old thread but resurrecting it!
i was actually at work when i saw this drive through the parking lot...
i automatically thought my car had been stolen... until i saw the rear doors. lol... damn EAPs/Pistas.

Nimitz Pointe Resident
both previous property mangers as well as the landlord of the apartments dont care about the condition of the Read Morebuilding. for example when i moved in with my dog he was attacked by fleas because the apartment had a serious flea infestation they had to call the pest control out twice to treat it while my dog suffered for the first few months of living there. also during my stay there we had pest control called out because of rats that chewed through the wall in the kitchen and got into alot of food

I have lots to do today! I'm leaving for Washington D.C. tomorrow for a week to do some mission work and work in a soup kitchen. Along with that, we are going to see a Nationals baseball game, tour the White House and other things. I am somewhat excited. When I get home from Washington, I have exactly two weeks and two days left before I move back to Greenville and into my apartment! I CAN'T WAIT. Never thought I would ever be this ready and this excited to go back. It sucks though because I haven't seen my friends that much this month. My brother, grandma and cousin are in Brazil right now with some people from church, including our pastor's family because that is where is wife is originally from, doing some mission work. He says the weather is nice down there, the beds are comfy and he's having a good time. I AM SO JEALOUS. Anywho, it's off to run errands for me.
Sorry I've neglected you. Been in the Outer Banks since Saturday. The four and a half hour trip home by myself wore me out. I'll write more tomorrow.
I need more mature people in my life.
I've decided I need a big change in my life. Life is a broad term when it comes to change, though. I need change in different aspects in my life.
I never thought I would ever say that I am ready to move back to Greenville. Last week, I got my apartment information and I'm just ready to be back out of excitement. Not only that, but this summer in Wilmington has not been what I expected it to be. All last year I kept saying, "I should've just gone to UNCW and I would be a lot happier." But, after this summer, I can hardly wait to get back. Yes because of excitement, but also because things are a lot different than I expected it to be. Everyone came back changed. Which was expected. Not only that, many people are not as close as they used to be. You know, coming back to Wilmington for summer, I was so happy and couldn't wait to see everyone but it just isn't the same. It's time to move on and make some more changes. Coming back to a summer filled with UNNECESSARY drama is the last thing I want. I know who my true friends are. The ones who don't talk behind my back and the ones who will actually listen to what I have to say and understand. Not the ones who will act like they understand and then go make fun behind my back. I am so over everyone acting like high schoolers. We are in college now. You would've thought everyone would have matured a little. Guess I was wrong.
I hate tourists.

Pause for Thought
From Canon Ann Easter, Chief Executive of a Charity and Chaplain to the Queen.
This week, the Christian Church celebrates the baptism of Jesus in the River Jordan, so on Sunday we blessed the font and I had great fun sprinkling all the congregation with water! We do baptism services every month and, like the Reverend Rob, we're booked up for ages.
Over the years, I'd done loads of baptisms, or christenings – different words for the same thing. From very tiny babies, when I was Chaplain to the Maternity Unit, when I'd be putting my hand into an incubator to dab the little mite with holy water on a cotton wool ball, to a gentleman of advanced years who had come to the church where I worked because his wife had died suddenly – and he must have liked our church, because he kept coming and wanted to become a full member but he couldn't find evidence of his baptism, so I had to Christen him. I told him not to expect me to pick him up and I remember that he got a new set of dentures especially for the occasion and asked me to bless them too!
Mostly baptisms are very happy occasions, with little darlings in family heirloom robes, surrounded by proud family and friends. At one point in the service, I have to say 'Name this child' when I take the baby to pour water over its head. Once, a godparent said 'She's just been sick' and another one said 'Yes, please'.
The Bible says that, when Jesus was baptised, the Heavens opened and everyone heard God saying 'This is my beloved in whom I take delight' and I suppose that's what human parents want to say too. All the major faiths have a way of acknowledging and delighting in new members of the community; as parents, we want to ask God's blessing on us too as we commit ourselves to the lifelong job of bringing them up – I reckon we need all the help we can get!

Malibu, CA (SportsNetwork.com) - Sam Dower led the way with 18 points and eight rebounds as the Gonzaga Bulldogs took down the Pepperdine Waves, 70-53, in at a West Coast Conference tilt at Firestone Fieldhouse.
Kevin Pangos added 14 points for the Bulldogs (15-3, 5-1 WCC), while Przemek Karnowski finished with 11 points.
For the Waves (11-8, 4-3), Stacy Davis led the team with 12 points and seven rebounds, but turned the ball over six times.

Dog on It: A Chet and Bernie Mysteryby Spencer Quinn
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Meet Chet, the wise and lovable canine narrator of Dog on It, who works alongside Bernie, a down-on-his-luck private investigator. Chet might have flunked out of police school ("I'd been the best leaper in K-9 class, which had led to all the trouble in a way I couldn't remember exactly, although blood was involved"), but he's a detective through and through.
In this, their first adventure, Chet and Bernie investigate the disappearance of Madison, a teenage girl who may or may not have been kidnapped, but who has definitely gotten mixed up with some very unsavory characters. A well-behaved, gifted student, she didn't arrive home after school and her divorced mother is frantic. Bernie is quick to take the case — something about a cash flow problem that Chet's not all that clear about — and he's relieved, if vaguely suspicious, when Madison turns up unharmed with a story that doesn't add up. But when she disappears for a second time in a week, Bernie and Chet aren't taking any chances; they launch a full-blown investigation. Without a ransom demand, they're not convinced it's a kidnapping, but they are sure of one thing: something smells funny.
Their search for clues takes them into the desert to biker bars and other exotic locals, with Chet's highly trained nose leading the way. Both Chet and Bernie bring their own special skills to the hunt, one that puts each of them in peril. But even as the bad guys try to turn the tables, this duo is nothing if not resourceful, and the result is an uncommonly satisfying adventure.
With his doggy ways and his endearingly hardboiled voice, Chet is full of heart and occasionally prone to mischief. He is intensely loyal to Bernie, who, though distracted by issues that Chet has difficulty understanding — like divorce, child custody, and other peculiar human concerns — is enormously likable himself, in his flawed, all-too-human way.
About the Author
Spencer Quinn lives on Cape Cod with his dog, Audrey. He is currently working on the next Chet and Bernie novel.

You know what, I'm not.
Some of you may think I'm cocky for this but I don't give a fuck.
I am beautiful.
Being beautiful isn't about having flawless skin, perfect hair, perfect teeth, nice eyes etc. It's about being kind and nice on the inside, caring about others, and letting them know how beautiful they are too.
But you anon, you are not beautiful at all. You're a horrible person, how dare you tell someone they're ugly?

Travel Tip
Here is a practical travel tip for your visit to Costa Rica. To calculate the conversion rate from Colones (Costa Rican currency) to Dollars: multiply the price in colones X 2 and drop three zeros. Example: If an order of gallo pinto (see below for illustration) cost $ 5,000 colones then 5,000 x 2 = 10,000 - 3 zeros = $5 USD. **This conversion formula will only work if the exchange rate for the colon does not change**
Over the weekend I jumped on a bus in San Jose that drove three hours west to the beautiful rain forest park in the town of Manuel Antonio.
Yes, I saw monkeys!
The Unicameral Legislative Assembly or Asamblea Legislativa holds fifty-seven seats. Members are elected by direct popular vote to serve four-year terms.
Thanks to Olman Rodriguez Loaiza (my supervisor at the Constitutional Court) and Luis Paulino Mora (son of the former Chief Justice of the Supreme Court) I was lucky enough to get a pass to sit on the floor of the General Assembly.
Today I met Justice Gilbert Armijo Sancho -the new Chief Justice of the Constitutional Court.
Awesome man! He gave me a copy of his newest book.
Today I met two of the Justices on Costa Rica's Constitutional Court (Sala IV)

Do you know a judge who can play the accordion?

Hello Knife Knerds and others!
I was paging through the current Bon Appetit magazine (Aug 2014) and saw a purty knife in the article called Summer Casual. As best I can tell the picture is on...
Excellent news!!
I'm in for one, handle doesn't matter.
This polar vortex thingy has taken our rain away here in San Francisco. We've had virtually no rain this winter (rainy) season. One nice byproduct is record breaking warm temperatures. But we need...
If you make it to San Francisco check out Bernal Cutlery in the Mission District. Great selection and Josh has a wide knowledge of knives and is eager to share that with his customers!!
I have this knife in the 10 inch version and my copy is pretty wonderful. It also helps that my wife bought it for me thru a friend's employee discount at SLT!! That said, it is very tall at the...
Merry, Merry Christmas! The parer is getting a workout today!
Just an extra heat treatment. The Big Green Egg is very versatile...
I was shocked to see my new cutting board on the front step after a day of singing 3 caroling jobs. What a beauty!! Can't wait to do some slicing on it with the new knife that also showed up...
Welcome. It appears you will fit in nicely...
What's the latest on the cutting board project? Is there a target date? Inquiring minds want to know...
Heard a gospel bluegrass band in SF last night called Fret Not. Good musicians and it was a benefit for Mission High School. Fun and seldom heard Christmas music.
On my Wundermap some of the personal weather stations actually reported 32F early this morning. We almost never freeze in San Francisco. Spoiled am I.
Nice, very nice!
Silly question but what is the grit rating for the wheel? Or is it more the mass and speed of the turning wheel that is important? Thanks!!
Welcome from another Northern Californian!!
AEB-L. I like both but given Devin's way with AEB-L I had to try it!!
I received my Devin Thomas ITK last week!! Wow, I had fun prepping for Thanksgiving!! I'm not too good at inserting photos so I'm posting a flickr link if that's OK.
Wow, what a cutie. Congratulations and enjoy your new addition to knife knerdom!!!
Welcome! Good to see another person from the Bay Area!
Congratulations and many blessing to the new couple!!
Hmmmm. No pic. I'll just post the flickr link if that is ok:

For the last three years, one puzzle has stood out in terms of its design, intricacy, backstory, and excitement generated by customers: the Isis Puzzle.
A series of five interconnected puzzles (only 3 of which have been released to date), the Isis Adventure is a puzzle series designed to challenge the most sophisticated puzzle-solvers, and to be the ultimate challenge for the puzzle aficionado. Solving the actual puzzle and unlocking its secrets is only the first step; as you unlock each puzzle clues are given which can unlock special objects which the creators have positioned in locations throughout the world. Solving the puzzle and opening each object will lead you to the next, and there are even opportunities to win cash prizes. But the puzzles themselves are beautifully crafted, works of superior design that look gorgeous on a desk or coffee table.
The Orb
The first puzzle in the series is the Orb of Isis, a metallic sphere with bands that rotate and turn with an interlocking mechanism inside; hieroglyphic clues carved into the orb help you to solve the puzzle. By aligning the bands in a precise specific combination, the orb is opened revealing a secret clue that can be used in the next step of the adventure. Marbles offers a Special Edition Titanium & Blue Isis Puzzle, made for our stores exclusively by the manufacturer, Sonic Games UK. The orb comes in a beautiful case—but don't throw away its box either—clues are prevalent even in the packaging.
The Ramisis
Even though this is the second puzzle in the series, it is just now being released after a long delay. Consisiting of a beautiful metal pyramid, the user must use clues (found on the company website as well as in the accompanying booklet) to solve and unlock this intricate mechanism, which when solved, will provide assistance in continuing the challenge and adventure.
The Copernisis
The Copernisis is the third puzzle in the series. A circular "aircraft-grade" aluminum disk with 5 "planet rings" that click and lock into their tracks. To unlock this disk, the rings must be situated in a precise pattern in order to open and reveal the secrets inside.
Two more puzzles in the series are expected in the next few years, and Marbles will most definitely be the place to find them once they are released. What is so wonderful about the puzzles (besides the beauty and craft of their design) is that they work both as part of the multi-puzzle "adventure" and as stand-alone puzzles. Considered the most difficult strategy puzzle out there, the Isis Puzzles are beautiful art objects even if you struggle in solving them. The investment made in joining the adventure will challenge all manner of cognitive skills, and maybe earn you cash prizes!

fingerprint wedding ring. the couple molds their fingerprints on to each other's rings so they never lack the other's touch.
(I would like to see them make these in different metals and with the imprints on the inside of the ring.) UPDATE: They do. I have my wedding band, but I want to order the thin one just because.
