I've got several wireless PCs connected to the wireless router. Several of them say "active", some others say "inactive". What does inactive mean? I can't see the inactive ones on the network - but i can see the network from the ones who are inactive...
I have the same thing in my networking section. I believe it tmeans those devices are off or asleep, hibernating. My nooks show inactive because they are off i believe. I was in networking tonight because I was trying to figure out why my Ipad wont stay connected to the internet and I notice it also had my Iphone inactive. I had it locked and I guess you can say asleep.I noticed after I unlocked it which also brings it up it took a minute but then it showed active. Now I have to hope that what I did will keep my Ipad connected It is a new router they sent so it was set at a default of 5 devices and we have more than that so I maxed it out. Anyway I believe it just means those devices are down in some form. If I am wrong hopefully someone will post. I noticed when I came her with my issue yours had been here a few days with out an answer.

April 5, 1908 - October 6, 1989 (aged 81)
Happy birthday, Betty Davis!
"I adore Bette Davis and Vivien Leigh, but more because they were good actresses. That's what makes me interested in them, that they didn't present themselves as idols; they were just doing their jobs."
–Imelda Staunton
i loved this movie, especially the cigarette scene.

John fiddled with his phone, rather concerned. RB, whoever the hell that was, had Jim's phone, and didn't know how he got it. That could mean a few things, but the possibility with the most weight in his mind was that Jim was in trouble.
He'd told RB to meet him in the coffee shop, and retrieve the phone for the criminal mastermind. The doctor wasn't sure how the hell he'd find Jim, actually, without his phone. Maybe he would ask Mycroft or something.

Carnival Cruise Lines is facing the first lawsuit from passengers who spent five days without power on a ship in the Gulf of Mexico.
Houston resident Lisa Williams is seeking $75,000 for bodily injury. In an exclusive interview, Williams told ABC News she became dehydrated on the ship and spent the weekend in and out of urgent care centers.
"My only concern is that this doesn't occur ever gain so that they never have another ship that has a similar experience," Williams said.

By LAURA HALM6 News Reporter
KNOXVILLE (WATE) - That "must-have" toy changes every holiday season, and this year is no exception.
The National Retail Federation says electronic toys like gaming systems or iPads are topping the list. We checked with parents waiting in line at Target on Thanksgiving, "how do you know a toy is on the hot list?"
Simply put, you can't find it anywhere. That's how you know.
"Battling the crowds is the worst part. The lines," said shopper Janell Barnhill, who was waiting in line at 8 a.m.
Moms, dads, brothers and sisters waited to start the hunt for this year's popular toys.
"The Skylanders, that's all I've heard from all my cousins and my little brother," said Erika Dameron.
Shoppers say the wait to shop before Black Friday is expected to pay off.
"Normally, for the hot items, you can find them cheaper versus waiting or throughout the season," added Victoria Blakely.
Inside the store, Cassidy Garcia said Santa seemed to be helping Thursday. That's because select toys she was looking for were sold out online, leading her to do some homework.
"I came in last night at 8 o'clock and scoped everything out. Then came back in at 10 to make sure where the pallets were actually going to be and then I came straight to this location," she said.
Others were just busy checking items on a long list of must-have's.
"Monster dolls, Furby, light brix, girl LEGO," said shopper Holly Rhodes.
While the "to-die-for" toys may be pricey, there's always pay off for parents.
"It's just watching their faces, that's it and ideally they stay in their rooms and play with the stuff for long periods of time," she added.
For 2013, classic toys topped the list by NRF. For boys it was LEGO and girls Barbie. If you would like to see the complete list of popular toys you can click here.

Hi - does anyone know of anything natural that I can give to Starsky to make him more comfortable in his last weeks?
He is 11 years old and has in the past week become very unsteady on his feet (some days not being able to move at all). He is still happy in himself as long as he gets lost of fuss from me! I just want to be sure that he is not in pain, so thought that if there is a plant perhaps that offers pain relief, that I could give this to him.
I am pretty sure that he is starting to slip away so just want him to be as comfortable as possible. I will obviously make that dreaded call to the vet when I know he isn't happy anymore.

Next year I'll get to double the amount of not watching Seth MacFarlane because he's recorded a guest spot for an episode of 'the Simpsons', playing a character that Marge meets online. They arrange to meet IRL; he thinks they're gonna do it, she thinks they're gonna bake cupcakes (wah wah). All they needed was Tina Fey to do a voice and they could have titled it, "Things I Can't Believe Are Still On TV".
Seth MacFarlane will be on the Simpsons
The Simpsons live in Springfield, Oregon
Not only is Oregon beautiful, but they have a lot of other cool shit too, like Nike, college footballs hottest cheerleaders and coolest helmets, kick ass weed, um, the I-5 killer (I ran out of things to name), but on top of all that, now 'the Simpsons' creator Matt Groening tells Smithsonian Magazine that it's the official home of Homer Simpson too.
SMITHSONIAN: OK, why do the Simpsons live in a town called Springfield? Isn't that a little generic?
GROENING: Springfield was named after Springfield, Oregon. The only reason is that when I was a kid, the TV show "Father Knows Best" took place in the town of Springfield, and I was thrilled because I imagined that it was the town next to Portland, my hometown. When I grew up, I realized it was just a fictitious name. I also figured out that Springfield was one of the most common names for a city in the U.S. In anticipation of the success of the show, I thought, "This will be cool; everyone will think it's their Springfield." And they do.
Keep in mind that this means it's also the home of Shelbyville, which was founded as a haven for people who wanted to have sex with their cousins, so don't get too full of yourself, Oregon. You perverts are on a short leash.
The Simpsons is finally getting cancelled
Fox has made 1 billion dollars off the Simpsons during it's 23 year run, but this season will be the last unless the cast agrees to a massive pay cut by tomorrow. Re-read that part about Fox making a billion dollars and you'll get an idea about how excited they are about that idea.
The Wrap says…
Fox wants "The Simpsons" for one more season at most — and only if it can pay 25 to 30 percent less for it, an executive close to the show told TheWrap. The disclosure comes as producers have agreed to salary cuts to keep the show going, and the show's six voice actors have been asked to decide by Friday whether they will agree to have their payment cut almost in half.
TheWrap reported Wednesday that, as ammunition in their salary dispute, the actors have commissioned a study estimating the show has made $1 billion in profits over its 23-season run. The study projected that the studio will eventually make about $2.9 billion from the show.
They should probably agree to the cut because that show has sucked for at least 15 years. If I were Fox I would threaten to just re-air the fist seven seasons in order. I'd explain how those would be way better and wouldn't cost a dime. And if that didn't work I'd tell them the cookies they just ate were poisoned.
Tuesday headlines, with Gaga on the Simpsons
LADY GAGA – will play herself on 'The Simpsons', "to cheer up a dejected Lisa through the power of speech, song, and a flash mob." The message being: if you're feeling low, try annoying the hell out of people. (ew)
WILL SMITH AND JADA PINKETT – were reportedly broken up, but this morning Wills son Trey tweeted that it wasn't true, and now they've issued a statement saying, "Although we are reluctant to respond to these types of press reports, the rumors circulating about our relationship are completely false. We are still together, and our marriage is intact." Oohh. "Intact". What a romantic word. I guess things really are going great. "My wife is very suitable", Will went on to explain. (twitter, access hollywood)
MEGAN FOX – confirmed that she's having the tattoo on her forearm of Marilyn Monroe removed, saying, "She was a negative person, she was disturbed, bipolar. I do not want to attract this kind of negative energy in my life." Oh relax Megan. It's not Ed Gein for Christs sake. (us)
BEN AFFLECK AND JENNIFER GARNER – are expecting their third child to go along with their daughters Violet, 5, and Seraphina, 2. No word yet on if its a boy or a girl, or what stripper/wish granting cartoon mouse they'll name them after. (people)
The world's largest convenience store chain may get a movie make-over if all goes as planned, as 20 Century Fox is in talks with 7-Eleven to make over 11 of their stores so that they look like the Kwik-E-Mart. The Kwik-E-Mart, of course, is the convenience store that appears in almost every episode of the Simpson's and this is all part of the promotion push for the Simpson's Movie, which comes out July 27. So how much would you pay for a knife like this, but wait there's more! The source says:
Customers also will be able to buy products inspired by the nearly two-decades-old show, including KrustyO's cereal, Buzz Cola and iced Squishees (the cup says Squishee, but the contents will be Slurpee). The chain also will use pictures of Simpsons characters to promote 7-Eleven's line of fresh foods, such as placing the face of Homer and his classic "Mmmm . . . sandwich" quip on sandwich wrappers.
I've never been hungry enough to sample any of 7-Elevens line of "fresh foods" and no amount of cartoon comradery will make me do otherwise, but I would trek whatever distance was necessary to go to a Kwik-E-Mart. I would also watch two hot chicks make out, but then I'm pretty open minded.
The most anticipated movie of 1992 finally has a full trailer, so put down your Goosebumps book, grab a Crystal Pepsi and gather around to watch a clip for a movie that's at least 15 years overdue. The trailer reveals almost nothing even vaguely resembling a plot or storyline, but it is pretty funny nonetheless and makes you maybe think it will be worth the wait. Just like the next Chris Gaines record.

50 United Nations Plaza; Corcoran
Imagine the kitchen of your dreams (dishwasher, double oven, wine cooler?) and pit it against the bathroom of your dreams (steam shower, double vanities, Jacuzzi?). We asked five New Yorkers about which tricked out room they'd choose if they could only have one.
In this $10.5 million Lenox Hill condo, one of the four bedrooms is slightly removed from the others and includes its own en-suite bathroom, perfect for having a nanny nearby (but giving everyone involved their privacy).
Cab fare is standard when you've got a babysitter watching your kid for the evening. But what if someone helps out with the kids round-the-clock? If you've got the extra cash, you could take up residence in one of these NYC pads so spacious the nanny can have an extra room all to themselves.

Every person doing more than $200 worth of reno work must be licensed with the city.
Choosing a contractor is an essential—if headache-inducing—part of any renovation that's not a DIY job. And one of the first steps to hiring said contractor is making sure they're licensed, as the home improvement site Sweeten recently pointed out. Sure, it's not the most, ahem, groundbreaking piece of advice. In fact, anyone who does a job in New York City that costs $200 or more must get a home improvement contractor (HIC) license. But there are a few really good reasons to look into whether a contractor is certified. (You can search for their license numbers on this city database.)

Friends with Kids
The smiling faces of people paying for two separate apartments—and child care—in an expensive Upper West Side building?
In honor of Family Week on BrickUnderground, we're taking the opportunity to revisit 2011's Friends With Kids, a rom-com that's as much about real estate as it is raising children in New York (to us, anyway).
The movie centers around Jason (Adam Scott) and Julie (Jennifer Westfeldt, who also wrote and directed the movie), two best friends who live in the same building on the Upper West Side. Seeing their married friends plunged into chaos by parenthood, Jason and Julie make the kind of pact people only ever make in movies for the sake of advancing the plot: they'll have a kid together, but remain platonic friends and continue to date other people. Their friends are skeptical at best.
If there's one thing virtually all New York City apartments lack, it's extra space, so furniture that takes up little to no room is a godsend. That's why these clever folding furnishings—the creations of Andrea Kordos and Tony Round, two Toronto-based architects with an appreciation for beautiful, minimalist and practical furniture—are so appealing.

You're probably going to need a hefty loan to score an apartment up here.
In Case You Missed It: Every so often, BrickUnderground digs through the archives to find the best advice our experts have shared through the years.
New York City apartments are expensive and buying one likely involves the obtaining of a mortgage. Here, the most common mortgage-related snafus and how to avoid them:
Fluctuating income: The self-employed or those with irregular incomes can appear as unpredictable borrowers to a bank. To present yourself in the best way possible, have at least two years of tax returns on hand and documentation of estimated taxes paid. Record all your earnings—even those in cash. Finally, offer at least a 25 percent down payment. It will reduce your debt burden and ensure the lowest mortgage rate possible.
TURTLE BAY, MANHATTAN: Loft studio at 310 East 46th Street (between First and Second) with high ceilings and elevated sleeping space in pre-war building with elevator, doorman, roof deck, and parking garage, $2,800/month
If you're looking to rent for around $2,800 a month, we've combed the listings for options in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, and the Bronx, whether you're in the market for a one-bedroom in the heart of the city, a two-bedroom fit for a small family, or a spacious outer-borough roommate share.
If this is your first time renting in NYC (or if it's just been a while since your last apartment hunt), take a look at BrickUnderground's handy How to Rent Guide. For added insight, check out our crash course on how to find an apartment, too.
Think you might need a guarantor? See if the landlord accepts Insurent, a guarantor solution from one of BrickUnderground's partners.

Loft living has its perks—space, much?—but isn't for everyone.
In theory, owning an airy, open loft is the city dweller's dream. But is loft living really as glamorous as it seems? The Corcoran Group's Sandy Mattingly—the self-described Manhattan Loft Guy—gives a rundown of this singular type of apartment in this week's Buy Curious.
I want to buy a loft in Manhattan, but I want to make sure I'm getting my money's worth. What makes an apartment a real "loft"? What are the pros and cons of loft living? What kinds of neighborhoods should I look in to get one? What can I expect to spend?

The Air Force, citing ongoing fiscal concerns, is putting off a cyber and space conference that was set for next month.
The Cyber and Space Industry/Government Summit, which was previously scheduled for March 5th and 6th in Colorado Springs, Colo., "has been postponed until current federal budget uncertainties are resolved," the service noted in a FedBizOpps posting. "It is anticipated that the summit will be held in the May/June 2013 timeframe; exact dates to be determined."
Hosted by the Defense Business Initiative Tiger Team, the summit's theme is "Addressing Acquisition Issues/Filling The Pipeline," according to DBI's conference website, which notes that this is the first year of the event. The posted agenda does not identify any planned speakers.

Loeb said Marvel had something special for Gregg, something that's never been seen before. It featured a trailer of Coulson's moments starting with "Iron Man."
"An Honest Man. An Honorable Man. A Man of S.H.I.E.L.D." the trailer read interspersed between some of Coulson's best moments. "We thank him for his bravery."
The reel went to his heroic death scene. "We remember his Legacy. Always," said the trailer. "Rest in Peace, Agent Phil Coulson 1969 - 2012." At the end of the trailer, Gregg looked to be crying.
An emotional Gregg took the stage.
"I grew up loving comics," he said. "One of the greatest things about it is that I got to connect with people like you, so thank you for being apart of it."
The crowd began chanting "COULSON! COULSON!"
"I just want to say because I won't have another chance to ask this — 'Have you heard of a Life Model Decoy?'" asked Gregg. "I don't know if you've read the theories from the people on Twitter, but there's this guy called the Vision. I don't know if you saw the UK version of the DVD, but the blade wasn't coming out of his chest. There's a tesseract!
"All around the globe you can see graffiti, bumper stickers that say 'Coulson Lives!' You have the power, Jeph! I feel like we could make this happen right now!"
"This is not like Tinkerbell, you don't get to clap!" said Loeb.
And then, suddenly, Joss Whedon showed up onscreen amongst applause.
"We all love Clark Gregg, there's no doubt about that," Whedon said. "From before we made 'The Avengers,' we discussed whether there was a way for him to be a part of the Marvel Universe, perhaps a part of a TV show even after his death. … The fact of the matter is, as much as we love him, now that I'm really running Marvel, I like to keep a type of artistic integrity, which means we don't stretch the bounds of reality."
"There was never going to be a 'S.H.I.E.L.D.' show without Agent Phil Coulson!" said Feige, who appeared behind Whedon, wearing a COULSON LIVES shirt.

That empty space is a medium which conducts matter/energy (?)
First I ask you to be mindful of the fact that I am not an astrophysicist nor am I an expert in this area of study. That being said, what is space? It is not nothing, nothing is just that, it is nothing. Space cannot be nothing because nothing does not exist. If space is composed of anti-matter or dark matter then that would confirm that space is not nothing, it is something. Exploring this concept logically, why does matter and energy travel or radiate so easily through space if it is something?
Before you say that concentrations of dark matter make it difficult for light to pass though consider this. Is it possible that the vast span of space is a conductor of energy and matter? We know that space is transparent considering we are looking for light, radiation, mass etc. But why? On your computer you are capable of seeing millions of gigabytes of information but have you ever seen the wire through your screen? Obviously you can see an Ethernet cord which is transmitting data by looking away from the screen, but you had to shift your gaze away from the screen. Looking at space for us is like looking at the internet from inside the screen.
So to all of you Mensa members and genius prodigies I ask you, is our concept of space biased? Can space be something that is entirely different than we imagined? Is space a solid which conducts matter and energy the way copper conducts electricity?

May 12 2012: What happens if we draw a perfect vacuum in a chamber. Does the space in the chamber cease to exist? The matter in the chamber is removed, but the space (volume) is still there. It simply has nothing in it. Space is a nearly perfect vacuum. But it is a huge volume. There are particles in space, but very low density. Matter travels through space in particles; protons, neutrons, electrons, as well as radiation (photons). There is virtually nothing in space to impede these particles so they flow without resistance. Once they reach the earth, they impart their energy on what they come in contact with. That is how energy reaches the earth from the sun. There doesn't have to be anything in space to transmit the energy because there are three types of energy transfer; conduction = transmitting through a solid, convection = transmitting through a liquid or gas, and radiation = transmitting through space. The energy from the sun is totally radiation.
K HamzehMay 15 2012: Dear Roy" Does the space in the chamber cease to exist? The matter in the chamber is removed, but the space (volume) is still there."Your explanation is the very ordinary feeling of all of us, however I think it is not the reality. Please think over my comments below (4 days ago).SPACE is not matter or radiation, so inside a vacuum chamber is nothing but just a part of our non-materialistic world that laws of physics hold on the mass and the radiation.This simple unusual view about SPACE is the answer to the question about the ultimate boundary of the outer space. I think laws of physics, like our thougths, do not exist physically. I call these metaphysics.Regards

Which One Of These Concept TARDIS Interiors Do You Like Best?
We all know it's "Location Location Location" when choosing digs. Course, if you live in a TARDIS this is less of an issue and you can focus on INTERIOR DÉCOR! Buzzfeed has collected 15 fan-interpretations of what the control room –the show-room of any Type 40 TT capsule– could look like.
The first major overhaul in the TV series came in 1976's Masque of Mandragora where the "secondary control room" was introduced with a wood-panelled fusion of Gothic and Art Deco. Since then, asides from minor changes to the walls and the stunning new key-pad console in 1983's The Five Doctors, little changed.
Then in 1996 Paul McGann's Doctor inherited the Seventh's re-furbished control room with a Jules Verne-inspired console and walls so distant they were in shadow. Since the show's return the interior of the TARDIS has taken on a new significance, seeming to be an extension of the Doctor's personality. The current control room is New Who's third permanent TARDIS set and, after Coral and Junk, heralded a return to the futurism of the very first control room.
But what would your ideal control room look like? The offerings compiled at Buzzfeed feature some intriguing ideas. Yawning chasms, stained glass windows, a surrounding aquarium and suspended consoles. Number 9 appears to be a riff on the unused design for the unmade season 27 when the classic series ended, by effects designer Mike Tucker art-for-hearts.blogspot.co.uk/2010/03/mike-tucker.html and number 15 is the steampunk version taken from the 2003 animated webcast Scream of the Shalka, recently released on DVD.
Author Lawrence Miles made it clear in his Who novels that the inside appearance of the TARDIS is really an illusion that simpler creatures like humans and Timelords can perceive and interact with… A user-interface with a 'desktop setting' as New Who puts it. It could look like literally ANYTHING.
So, glistening floors or soaring buttresses, what do you think? Could the current control room be improved on? Should it look a certain way? If so tell us how…
11 Responses to Which One Of These Concept TARDIS Interiors Do You Like Best?
I like nos. 5 & 6 – mixture of old and new.
I like 5 and 8, 9, and 10, especially 8/9. Since the TV Movie, I've liked the idea of the console room being more like the drawing/sitting room of a mansion but with various futuristic (or even 'low tech') touches. Wood paneling, nice furniture, book shelves, etc.
I'm not crazy about any of these, but I think it might be fun for the Chameleon Circuit to go on the blink and have an episode where the TARDIS keeps changing shape so the Doctor/Clara have a hard time finding it.
They did this once during the Colin Baker years, but it was treated as just another joke about the Doctor being unable to properly fix/operate the Tarsis (thankfully he's much more proficient now as those jokes were getting musty by Patrick Troughton's era!). I'd like to see it happen now and cause serious, life-threatening complications.
I really like 5, 6 and 9 personally. And number 11 if they could pull it off without it looking too flat on screen. I'd really like to see the traditional doors from number 11 back as well, especially if they led into the heart of the TARDIS rather than out of it.
I like the warmer wood-panelled look–the alternate control room was always my favorite–but the current design has a lot of interesting features as well. For my fan production I've designed something combining the high-tech, slick current version with the victorian drawing room feel. It's a big, expensive endeavor–about 28′ diameter and 20+' high, but it's worth the time and expense. My Doctor has a world weariness to him and has been forced to look back on his previous decisions in a way that has made him simultaneously confront and become sadly nostalgic about the past. He enjoys returning home to his small comforts, so the control room is a combination of cozy den and functional technological enclave (and yes, the ceiling area above the console has three counter-spinning sections, although they appear more like an enormous machine/engine here). Anyone watching will definitely know where I blew my budget!
11 for me. I prefer the futurist look, quite like the industrial mechanical look we've got now though. Wasnt too keen on the Eccleston Tennant console room and thought the first one Matt had was a touch too whimsical.
5, 10 and 14! I like the classic idea of future with old fashion, espace to move but not loneliness…
I liked the fifth Dr's Tardis `from his last season, it would look good now if updated and the console room darkend a little.And the elevenths Dr's Tardis from this year is good.If the bbc had the money i think the Eighth's was pretty impressive to bring it back.

We offer two ways to locate information:
A wine with great depth of color, our '98 Reserve has a nose of rich black fruits, creme brulee, spice, and cream, while maintaining varietal purity. The palate is ultra-rich and mouth-filling, with flavors of black fruits and integrated wood spice. The incredibly long finish is backed by delicious fine-grained, soft tannins, and integrated toasty oak. This wine will likely be remembered as one of the finest Leonetti's produced to date.
Cabernet Sauvignon 75%, Merlot 12.5%, Petit Verdot 12.5%
"I could not help breaking into a smile when I tasted the medium to dark ruby-colored 1998 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve. Its extraordinarily spicy, cherry syrup-scented nose leads to a flavor profile that explodes on the palate with substantial quantities of cherry syrup, raspberry coulis, and Asian spices. Gary Figgins' Cabernets can be as boisterous as Olivier Humbrecht's Gewurztraminers. The purity and power of the sweet, spicy fruit flavors found in this wine are truly extraordinary. Additionally, it possesses an extremely long, candied, sweet tannin-filled finish.
96 Points
The Wine Advocate
"Saturated medium ruby. Roasted red fruits and mocha on the nose. A huge, sweet mouthful of rich, expressive cabernet fruit. This thoroughly smooth wine has uncanny glyceral richness. The substantial but supple tannins are currently buried in fruit. In contrast to the regular bottling, this was dominated by its structure a year ago (prior to the bottling), but is utterly seamless today."
93 Points
International Wine Cellar
"A seductive Cabernet, firm in texture, with layers and layers of generous black cherry, plum and mint flavors swirling through the supple finish, which echoes the flavors harmoniously."
92 Points
Wine Spectator
Exclusive production of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot have been the hallmark of Gary Figgins' Leonetti Cellar winery in the suburbs of Walla Walla. Grapes from his own vineyard and from other nearby properties are used to create these rich and robust varietal wines.

The film is centred on Neil (Ben Affleck), a man who is torn between two loves: Marina (Olga Kurylenko), the European woman who comes to United States to be with him, and Jane (Rachel McAdams), the old flame he reconnects with from his hometown. Neil's doubts about his life and loves are reflected in the crisis of faith experienced by Father Quintana (Javier Bardem), who only sees pain and the loss of hope in the world.
In To the Wonder, Terrence Malick explores how love and its many phases and seasons, passion, sympathy, obligation, sorrow, indecision, can transform, destroy, and reinvent lives.
To the Wonder was released April 12th, 2013 and stars Ben Affleck, Olga Kurylenko, Rachel McAdams, Javier Bardem, Tatiana Chiline, Romina Mondello, Tony O'Gans, Charles Baker. The film is directed by Terrence Malick.

Forget where Azerbaijan is located on the globe? Ever hear of Burkina Faso or Seychelles? Have you met your Mongolian neighbors in Chicago?
The event was composed of 557 athletes from 112 countries, from Albania to Zambia. From bout to bout, the home crowd changed from American to Chinese to Kzaakh to Jamaican.
Given the short time span to plan the event -- five months instead of the typical two years -- organizers were ecstatic over the 12-day attendance of 41,445. At Saturday's final, 5,173 fans showed up.
A nice showing, but when Italian heavyweight gold medalist Clemente Russo wept joyfully and when Italian super-heavyweight Roberto Cammarelle belted out Italy's national anthem, wouldn't it have been special if a large crowd from the Italian-American Sports Hall of Fame festivities had been there to cry and sing along?
Why wasn't every seat filled to watch American flyweight Rau'shee Warren get two teeth knocked out yet become the first U.S. gold medalist in eight years?
With the Bulls 0-3, the Bears imploding every Sunday and baseball over for everyone but A-Rod's financial managers, wouldn't a little boxing have filled the sports void? At least you could have brushed up on your geography.
2016?By all accounts, the event did nothing to dissuade the 2016 Olympic committee from selecting Chicago as the host.
The city and organizers provided punctually timed events, smooth transportation, a security-laden arena, a diverse crowd and strong competition.
Some big shots had only smiles after the championship.
"This, I would say, was the best ever," said Ching-Kuo Wu of Taiwan, who is the head of the International Amateur Boxing Association and an International Olympic Committee member.
Best thing for boxingWarren's now gap-toothed smile, thanks to the head butt of Thailand's Somjit Jongjohor, summed up the U.S. boxing experience. After taking some serious knocks and ugly beatings, American boxing seemed to stage a resurgence at the championships.
Five U.S. team members reached the quarterfinals and secured Olympic berths in Beijing.
The 20-year-old with a Rocky-like attitude was refreshing as he battled through shoulder pain, bloody noses and knocked-out incisors, all while promising to hand his medal over to his mom.
Note to U.S. Olympic marketers: Put this kid on a poster.
Worst thing for boxingNobody would want to pay money to watch the Chinese boxers dance around the ring. Zou Shiming is a talented fighter, no doubt. But the title fight against Philippines Harry Tanamor was as exciting as watching Xbox's Fight Night with no one at the controls.
Rain on the paradeSix Russian fighters advanced to the finals. Three Italians and two U.S. boxers fought for gold as well.
But the question kept coming up. What if the Cubans had been here?

If you're like most Americans, you've made at least one New Year's resolution. And according to health provider Kaiser Permanente's "New Year's and Health Issues Survey," nearly 60 percent of these resolutions are health and fitness-based. As pet lovers, most of us consider our dogs to be almost human, as well as an integral part of the family. So, while watching the ball drop on December 31st, consider making a resolution to improve the quality of your canine's health, as well.
Exercise programs that involve more than just a leisurely sniff-and-stroll around the block can get your pup's heart pounding, diffusing all of that excess energy, ultimately making it less hyper and much healthier overall. But before starting your dog off on a workout regime, here are some things to consider.
With those cues in mind, here's a look at some exercise routines for dogs at three points on the fitness spectrum:
The Beginners Plan
First, practice patience, says Jonathan Rudinger, founder and president of PetMessage Health and Fitness Center in Toledo, Ohio. Build endurance and speed slowly. You might have your dog walk on a treadmill for 10 minutes at three miles per hour three times a week, suggests Rudinger. While dog treadmills are available, Rudinger says any treadmill can work. He modifies a treadmill, blocking off the sides to make a chute, using PVC pipe and the sides from a dog crate.
The first time or two, you'll want to straddle the dog, with your feet outside the moving mat, making sure the leash stays wrapped around the crossbar and the dog feels safe. Never leave a dog unattended on a treadmill, he advises. "We don't want them to be like weekend warriors who get injured if they're put into a physical stress situation too quickly."
If you're walking your dog outside, build from a block-long walk to a two mile jaunt over the period of several months, says Moore. If you want to make the walk purposeful rather than an amble, you'll need to keep your dog's attention by changing pace on a regular basis and varying the walk routine.
The Intermediate Plan
If your dog has been conditioning for a while and has the propensity for more intense exercise, it should be able to handle a 20 to 25-minute run at four and a half to five miles per hour on a treadmill, says Rudinger. Again, you want to do this routine about three times a week, allowing for rest. Outside, your dog should be capable of 20 to 40 minutes of fast walking, jogging or games of catch and tag. If you're housebound by weather, consider a game of hide-and-seek.
The Advanced Plan
An advanced dog should be able to handle the same treadmill workout as an intermediate dog, but with more frequency, perhaps four to five times a week. A highly conditioned dog might be able to handle an hour or two of purposeful movement outside, says Moore. Varying the type of exercise is useful, perhaps adding a weekend hike or a 15-minute swim in a safe location. Don't forget water breaks. And your dog benefits from a stretch and a warm up, says Rudinger.
For any fitness level, the most important thing is to develop a routine. Commit to your dog's exercise, dedicating sufficient time for it on a regular basis and remembering that you are your dog's greatest motivator.

With Ignite no longer proccing off of crits, I don't think fishing will be a big issue anymore. We'll be able to give ignite a 100% uptime through fireball, pyroblast, and fireblast, so unless it doesn't operate like it does currently, by creating a stacking dot, then we won't necessarily need to wait for that big phat Pyroblast! crit.

Theme park cast member stories: Hablamos Español... Sorta
Written by Robert Niles
Laurie and I went out for dinner in Austin, Texas a couple weeks ago with a mutual friends from college, who'd married a lawyer from Argentina. They're fluent in Spanish, so Laurie was practicing her Español, as she likes to do with native and fluent speakers.Tweet
Our friend asked if I knew Spanish, too, and I replied that I know a few phrases.
Laurie rolled her eyes. "Go ahead," she said. So I rattled off my best Spanish, as our friend arched her eyebrow higher with each phrase:
"Cuatro personas por fila, por favor"*
"No más de veinticuatro personas por barco"**
"Permanezcan sentados, por favor"***
"Mantenga las manos y los brazos dentro del barco"****
"No tomar fotografías con flash"*****
I could tell she was struggling to find some context for these seemingly random phrases, but her blank stare turned to understanding once Laurie explained....
"He learned to speak Spanish working at Pirates of the Caribbean."
*Four people per row, please
**No more than 24 people per boat
***Remain seated, please
****Keep your hands and arms inside the boat
*****No flash photography

Delightful story, Robert. Reminds me of what little French I recall from high school. (Even more random than you.) The two I can still rattle off (but not necessarily spell in French so I won't try): "May I sharpen my pencil." & "Pull the drapes please, I can't see the blackboard." (Yes, the room actually had drapes and if you were on the opposite side of the room at the correct angle, the blackboard [actually green board] just disappeared into a sea of white.)
From Diane Graebner on August 24, 2009 at 10:30 AM
I used to be able to say "Get down off of the rocks" in at least 20 different languages after nearly five years at Honey I Shrunk the Kids playground!
I have a great language story that's not theme park related though. I spent a year traveling with a musical show, and we ended our tour for the holidays in Europe. I could either fly home to the US and back to Denmark to rejoin the cast, or could wander around Europe on my own. I was invited by a friend from the show to stay with his family in Poland and I accepted. The father decided to teach me some Polish. He spoke no English himself, but he taught me a few words. Since it was the holidays, he decided to go visit some of his school friends and he took his visiting American with him to show off. (This was right after the fall of Communism in Poland, and anything American had been once forbidden and was now exciting. "Gone With the Wind," was the big event on TV while I was there for example.)
Every home we visited was the same. "Father," would introduce me in Polish, then would begin to speak with his friends about old times. I could tell when they were talking about me because the conversation was always the same. Then, as the two would be discussing who I was and why I was visiting, "Father" would indicate that I spoke Polish. He'd nod to me and point.
He'd point to the light over the table.
"Lampa," I'd recite dutifully.
He'd nod, then point at the table.
He'd nod, then point at a chair.
He'd then get a wicked grin on his face and gesture dramatically at me.
"Podaj mi krzesło." I'd state with authority.
He'd then get up and with great flourish, hand me his chair over the table, the old friends laughing uproariously over the silly American asking someone to "Give me the chair!"
The old friends would then go on to discuss how I didn't drink enough (raise a glass to me) and didn't eat enough (pat their bellies and nod over to me with a disapproving look while pushing another plate of cakes in my direction). That visit over, we'd go on to the next house to do the same again.
It was a wonderful way to really meet the Polish people. To this day, when meeting someone who speaks Polish, I tell them to "Podaj mi krzesło" explaining why I know that phrase. We laugh at the silly things we Americans say and do!

I really enjoy practicing my German with the German pavilion CMs at Epcot's World Showcase. I only studied the language for two semesters in college, picked up some from my grandfather and some other informal means (including a friend's foul-mouthed exchange student) and have only been to Germany once, so I enjoy the chance to practice what little German I do know. Now in most other places, if you speak in a foreign language to a native speaker they'll assume you're fluent and will go off light-speed in full conversation. At Epcot, the CMs so far have always realized my German, while pretty good, is very limited in scope. They'll engage in very simple, clear conversation, speak more complex sentences in English, and will generally make you feel like a champ. Hats off to them. I'm not sure if Disney teaches this courtesy, but I just love being able to engage the CMs in a foreign language without getting in over my head. I did have this backfire a bit when a German CM started flirting (with a very not-subtle wink too) when I started speaking in German, with my wife right by my side, but other than that they've been great. (And to be honest, I didn't really mind the flirting. She was fairly attractive...)
On a side note, I studied Spanish for three years in high school, and Disneyland safety spiels still trump that as my second best source of my grasp of Spanish, right behind actually going to Mexico.

The testing continues in preparation of bringing the next-generation Ford Focus to market. The car is tested in some of the most extreme locations on the planet. So far, it has been thrashed over frozen arctic lakes, and hammered across the hottest deserts. We'd like to share with you our high-altitude testing, as the Focus is driven up and down high alpine passes with heavy loads to ensure reliability and dependability.
Altitude affects cars in the same way it affects humans. The higher you climb, the less oxygen there is, and the harder it becomes to breathe and function. Ford demands its products meet high standards of performance, even on high-altitude roads, which is why the company frequently heads to the Austrian Alps and the Grossglockner High Alpine Road specifically.
Completed in 1935, this breathtaking and beautiful ribbon of tarmac weaves its way into the heart of the Hohe Tauern National Park, before ending opposite the tallest mountain in Austria, the Grossglockner (12,460 feet) and its glacier, the Pasterze.
At 30 miles long, with 36 bends and a maximum altitude of 8,215 feet, this masterpiece of road engineering is a mecca for motorcyclists and driving enthusiasts. It's also the perfect location to carry out high-altitude testing on the next-generation Ford Focus.
Ford vehicle integration engineer Bernd Herweling is here for two weeks, driving 125 miles up and down the hill every day. This video lets Bernd explain why they are here and what they are learning.
"We're evaluating driveability on steep mountain roads from a customer perspective. The bottom line is we're here to find out how the car performs driving up and down seriously steep hills," says Bernd. "The Grossglockner is ideal for this. The road surface is very good. We use the first section for our test which is the biggest climb. It's pretty much a constant 12-percent grade uphill all the way up to 7,875 foot mark. Up there the air is a lot thinner so the engine has to work harder."
The team tested a camouflaged Focus equipped with the all-new 1.6-liter Ford EcoBoost™ direct-injection turbo engine. Bernd drives while his colleague Markus Polle sits in the passenger seat, monitoring a laptop which displays the ambient temperature, oil temperature and a myriad of other readings. On the back seat there's a dozen or so plastic fuel containers filled with ballast which weigh the same as three adults.
Bernd pushes the Focus hard. Mostly he's in Second or Third gear, but on some of the tighter bends he drops down to First. The scenery is simply stunning, but this road demands maximum concentration as there are huge drops at the side and no barriers. Ears pop as the Focus climbs ever higher and then, just a few minutes after leaving the valley floor, Bernd brakes to a halt at the top of the pass, switches the engine off and erects a wind deflector around the hood to trap heat inside the engine compartment.
"It's a heat soak," he says. "We want the engine to stay as hot as possible. Going uphill we're carefully motoring the engine cooling system, radiator temperature, engine oil temperature and in the case of automatic models, transmission oil temperatures."
As Bernd and Markus analyze their laptop readings a crowd of people gather around the camouflaged Focus. Some take photographs, many press against the windows to get a glimpse inside.
"This happens a lot," Bernd explains later. "When the car is stationary people try to look inside. If we drive past someone, often they will turn to look twice because it is different. People are curious. If someone wants to take pictures you can't avoid it. The camouflage does help though."
After five minutes it's time to head back down. Going uphill, the clutch and engine suffer most, but now it's time to work the brakes. At the side of the road, numerous signs warn drivers to select a low gear and use their brakes sparingly. Bernd, however, brakes very late for each bend to test the brakes thoroughly.
As we near the bottom, another camouflaged Focus sets off up the mountain towing a hefty four-wheeled trailer. Bernd explains that the driver's will stay at a steady 20 mph all the way to the top. At that speed there's little airflow through the radiator so the engine cooling system faces a stern work-out.
"The conditions are extreme but that's why we are here. If the car meets our performance targets in this environment, it'll cope with pretty much anything our customers will ask of it!"

Those transitioning years from primary to high school can be awkward for a kid, but Twenty Seven Names claimed them as inspiration behind their Fall 2011 offering. "It was 1996, we'd just started high school and there were all these different groups of girls all over the place," said designer Anjali Stewart after the show. "We were remembering how badly we used to dress but we wanted to try to do all those clothes again." Split into five sections, the collection represented a broad cross section of 90s high school subcultures. It started with the thrift shoppers, who'd run about in little lace dresses and grandma knit cardigans. Then there were the rich girls in their preppy blazers trimmed with collegiate crests. Indie, Winona Ryder types walked out in self-consciously ugly-cool floral-print dresses in a peculiar shade of raspberry red – with matching backpacks to boot.
We don't do cheerleaders and quarterbacks in New Zealand, but rugby lovers are a dime a dozen. Twenty Seven Names repped the sporty types with girls in knee length dresses with letterman jackets slung casually about their shoulders. And to throw a little darkness into the mix, there were the goths in long black dresses accessorised with perennial scowls.
My favourite piece of the lot (besides those letterman jackets) was a utilitarian woolen coat with massive patch pockets and a detachable storm flap that would double as a cape. It came out in an oatmeal, black and olive green and will no doubt be a huge seller when it hits the stores next year (I'd recommend the oatmeal).
They're famous for their banging soundtracks, those Twenty Seven Names girls, and this one was as good as ever – it featured party favourites from Outkast, Skee-Lo and Eminem. You know it's a good show when the audience is dancing in their seats, so this one must have been exceptional – a whole troop of American bloggers could be seen rapping along in the front row.

So that little tiny polka-dotty print, I'm pretty sure is the same print that Kathryn Wilson used on the last pair of shoes that came out in her show...but in a different colour?

I guess it's obvious, but I'll say it anyway: writing is my passion. I think creating fictional worlds and supernatural realms where anything and everything can happen is just about the coolest thing ever. Writing can take you almost anywhere-- beyond the boundaries of reality, even-- and I think it's fun to explore that. Random facts about me: I'm huge on procrastinating. Homework, chores, it doesn't matter, I always find ways to avoid things until the last possible second. I can go on youtube and watch the 'Alex reads twilight' videos over and over and still get a good laugh every time. There is no one on this earth who can convince me that there's a better show out there than The Vampire Diaries, or a better book series than The Hunger Games. It just isn't possible. There's also no one who can convince me that there is a chocolate in existence that tastes better than Lindor. While we're on the subject of dessert, I might as well say that I think Cold Stone ice cream is just as good as Häagen-Dazs. So kill me, I like Glee. Every time I watch an episode, I wonder why I even bother. It's been almost 2 full seasons and I still don't have an answer. There's just something oddly addictive about it. I'm a little contradictory. For example: I hate going shopping but love getting new clothes, I love the outdoors (sports, hiking etc.) but can't stand mud, and I love animals but if someone were to throw a frog or lizard on me, I think I'd have a heart attack. This barely scratches the surface of my personality, but it's impossible to fully describe myself in less than 2000 characters. So, if you've just wasted a few minutes of your limited time here on Earth by reading this, then THANK YOU! :) And feel free to take a look at my work. P.S. - Constructive criticism is greatly appreciated :)

"A few years ago, New York City added lots of bike lanes in an effort to make the roads more environmentally supportive. Since then I have never ridden in a taxi without the cab driver pointing out that the bike lanes are taking up so much of the road that the world has become completely ruined. Traffic can't function, the economy will soon collapse, and children no longer know right and wrong. I have been told that bike lanes are the worst thing to happen to this city while being driven by Ground Zero."
