HAMPTON, Va. – The Hampton University men's basketball team led at the half on Monday evening against Morgan State, but the Bears mounted a strong second half and handed the Pirates an 80-71 loss at the HU Convocation Center.
After starting MEAC play 3-0, the Pirates (8-10, 3-2 MEAC) have lost back-to-back conference games.
Senior forward Du'Vaughn Maxwell (Manhattan, N.Y.) led three Pirates in double figures with 20 points and 12 rebounds, going 7-for-17 from the floor. Sophomore guard Brian Darden (Hampton, Va.) added 12 points, and sophomore guard Breon Key (Hampton, Va.) chipped in 10 points.
Morgan State jumped out to a quick 5-0 lead, and the Bears led 11-4 with 15:10 left in the first half after a layup from Justin Black. The Pirates scored the next seven points, tying the game at 11-11 at the 13:17 mark after a trey from Key.
Morgan State jumped back out into the lead, and the Bears took a 25-16 lead with 8:03 left in the half, culminating a 14-5 run with a trey from Black. Hampton went on a 12-3 run to tie the game at 28-28 at the 5:16 mark after a slam from Maxwell.
Ian Chiles answered with a dunk of his own to put Morgan State up 30-28 with 2:45 left in the half, before the Pirates went on a 6-1 spurt to take a 34-31 lead with 28 seconds left in the half – following a putback, two-handed slam from Maxwell.
Black followed with a dunk of his own with four seconds left, sending the Pirates into the half with a 34-33 lead.
Maxwell led the Pirates with 12 points at the break, while Key had 10 for the Pirates.
Black had 17 points for Morgan State in the first half.
The Pirates took a 43-40 lead with 16:19 left in the second half on a jumper from sophomore guard Deron Powers (Williamsburg, Va.), but the Bears answered with a 19-6 run, taking a 59-49 lead with 9:50 left on a layup from Donte Pretlow.
Mercado ended a three-minute scoring drought for the Pirates, hitting a 3-pointer with 8:59 left to cut Morgan State's lead to 59-52. The Bears then went on a 7-2 run to take their largest lead of the night, a 66-54 edge with 6:58 remaining.
Hampton scored eight of the next 10 points, cutting the lead to 68-62 with 2:03 left after a layup from Maxwell. Darden added a pair of free throws with 36 seconds left to cut the deficit to 70-66, as the Pirates attempted a comeback.
But Morgan State (6-10, 4-0 MEAC) went 6-for-6 from the free throw line in the closing seconds and would've won by double digits if not for a technical foul against Black in the final second that resulted in two Darden free throws.
The Pirates shot 31.1 percent (19-for-61) from the floor and hit just six of 22 3-pointers (27.3 percent). Hampton also out-rebounded Morgan State 45-44.
Morgan State held a 50-22 edge in points in the paint, and the Bears shot 45.3 percent (29-for-64) from the floor, making three of their nine 3-pointers. The Bears also scored 22 points off turnovers, compared to 12 for Hampton.
Black led all scorers with 24 points.

Did Chris Brown Rough Up Rihanna?
Teen dating violence is on the rise all over the country ... now it hits Hollywood.
Last week was national "National Teen Dating Violence Awareness and Prevention Week." But teen dating violence was back in the spotlight over the weekend as 19-year-old Radio Disney sensation Chris Brown allegedly assaulted his girlfriend Rihanna over the weekend.
Domestic violence often starts early, and teens and young adults ages 16 to 24 are at the highest risk of their lives, according to experts working to get that message out.
"Dating violence is something that is unfortunately very common, and certain red flags are considered normal in our society," said Becky George, teen dating violence education coordinator.
Teenagers and young adults sometimes think jealousy, for instance, is a way of showing love, George said.
It's actually one of the warning signs of a potentially abusive relationship.
Other red flags:
⢠excessive text-messaging or calling
⢠monitoring calls and e-mails
⢠frequently showing up unannounced
⢠telling the other person what to do and wear
⢠publicly embarrassing the other
⢠frequent accusations of "cheating" or flirting
⢠keeping the other from doing things they enjoy
⢠threats of suicide or self-injury in the event of a breakup
Some research shows that 98% of teenage girls who have been abused continue to date the abuser. Your teen could be one of them.
If you suspect your daughter is in an abusive relationship, the following are some classic warning signs to watch out for:
⢠She apologizes for his behavior and makes excuses for him.
⢠She loses interest in activities that she used to enjoy.
⢠She stops seeing friends and family members and becomes more isolated.
⢠When your daughter and her boyfriend are together, he calls her names and puts her down in front of other people.
⢠He acts extremely jealous of others who pay attention to her, especially other guys.
⢠He thinks or tells your daughter that you don't like him.
⢠He controls her behavior, checking up on her constantly, calling and paging her, demanding to know who she has been with.
⢠She casually mentions his violent behavior, but laughs it off as a joke.
⢠She often has unexplained injuries, or the explanations she offers don't make sense.
⢠You see him violently lose his temper, striking or breaking objects.
"Teens' views on healthy relationships are based on what they see at home, in the media and with peers, which can be very detrimental to their own lives if their parents are in an abusive relationship," George said.
In a 2007 interview with Giant magazine, Brown said his mother had been physically abused by his stepfather. "He used to hit my mom," he was quoted as saying.
In a statement, police say Brown and his companion (presumably Rihanna) "became involved in an argument. After stopping his car, Brown and the woman got out and the argument escalated. The woman suffered visible injuries and identified Brown as her attacker."
By the time officers arrived on the scene, Brown had split.
An eyewitness tells RadarOnline.com: "It was some time after 12PM [Sunday] and I had been waiting in the ER department corridor at Cedars Sinai hospital when Rihanna was brought through the back entrance on a gurney, flanked by two LAPD officers. It was impossible to know it was her at first because when they wheeled her past me, she had the hood on her fuchsia-colored sweatshirt tightly drawn round her face and she was wearing big brown sunglasses. They took her into room 14 which was opposite me. It had a six-foot glass door but the nurses drew a privacy curtain around it."
"I knew the person was famous because of all the attention she was being given by security and medical staff. However, they didn't draw the curtain all the time and I was finally able to make out that the woman they had brought in was Rihanna. She was lying in bed. While the two police officers waited outside, Rihanna was seen by the doctor. When he left, a plain clothes officer in a mismatched suit went in. I figured he was a detective because I saw the handcuffs in his belt. He stayed in there for about an hour."
"When he left, Rihanna's two female assistants went in to see her and a private security guard stood outside. The police officers were given room 10 to use which was close to Rihanna's. "Rihanna was clearly very upset by what had happened and I could hear her screaming. Rihanna was trying to get her point across about something, she sounded like she was crying as she tried to get to put her point across."
"Her staff was also very shaken by what had happened. Later on I saw one of the assistants crying into the shoulder of the security guard. I left at 4 PM, happy to get out of the place, something terrible had clearly happened to Rihanna."
Brown, 19, turned himself in at the LAPD's Wilshire station around 6:30 PM Sunday and was booked on suspicion of making criminal threats, a charge that carries a maximum penalty of four years. The case will now be sent to the district attorney's office and further charges could be filed. He was released from jail after posting $50,000 bail.
"He was very professional and didn't appear to have injuries," said Sgt. Bridget Pickett, adding, "He's a good looking young man."
Both Chris Brown and Rihanna in turn withdrew from scheduled performances at the Grammys.
Wrigley has told "Extra" they plan to "suspend" the gum commercials featuring the singer. The statement says, "Wrigley is concerned by the serious allegations made against Chris Brown. We believe Mr. Brown should be afforded the same due process as any citizen. However, we have made the decision to suspend the current advertising featuring Brown and any related marketing communications until the matter is resolved."
We will keep you posted as this disturbing story develops.
rihanna needed to know that chris should be contrl and not vice versa.anywy,evry relationship has its ups and downs,u cant always sail in a calm ocean every time.Am sure they will love ech other more after wat happened………
dear rihanna iam really sorry about what had happen but if that was me i will move on with my life come on rihanna don;t back with him . it even chocked me too and iam not really happy . but i still am a big fan .
Seriously, people, what Chris Brown did is not just a "mistake" that might hurt his career a bit. Abuse is very serious and will often continue and worsen after the first offense. I am afraid that since so many people are treating this so lightly that society will continue to overlook abuse and not treat it seriously, and that therefore more people will be trapped in abusive relationships and not as easily be able to escape…it is somewhat of a taboo subject that no one wants to discuss.
I have been one of the 98% of teen girls who have gone back to abusive relationships (luckily the second time we were together was short and I was able to break up with the person). I have also seen friends been abused and still stay in relationships and I can only pray that the friend I am thinking about now will not get hurt again….we MUST take this seriously so people don't continue to get hurt. So…..to everyone reading this, please think before you write. Comments like "it was just a little mistake and he probably didn't mean to do it" helps no one and is not true.
my lil bro looked up to chris brown but now he's in shame
why did u do that chris brown we still love u both ook but never ever hit a girl agin riahanna i fell bad for uu hope u are okkkkkk chris brown was a meanney right in that point and are

The Constitution gives every American the inalienable right to make a damn fool of himself.
Thanks for the fantastic ideas. Please meditate upon a few of the many blessings on this world, and share them with others. It is a nice blessing to pass alongside good things. Work laborious to do one thing special for others everytime you can. Make everything more particular for everyone.
There are a lot of thoughts on this theme but This one I found is the greatest.

The rumors are NOT TRUE. We did not sign Foo Fighters, Dave Grohl just really likes our ultra-soft fabric t-shirts.
"We have a soft spot for Belgium"
Broadway Calls Interview on rock-metal-punk.org. Watch the interview HERE!
Just a few of the 7" Records that we're going to be putting up in our store tomorrow by Noon PST. We've had these in stock for a while but I'm not sure why they weren't available in our store. All that changes tomorrow.
We see you eyeing those Gaslight Anthem "The '59 Sound" 7"s. Not to mention our restock of Red and White Fake Problems "The Dream Team" 7"s.
For their third album, Broadway Calls are ready to go back to sonic basics and harness the energy of their earlier work into something new and exciting. It's a hint they more or less took on their new EP Toxic Kids, and it would seem that the band plan on continuing in that direction when they head to the Blasting Room in Fort Collins, Colorado this April to record the follow-up to 2009's Good Views, Bad News with producer Bill Stevenson (Rise Against, The Swellers, NOFX). "We have a lot of songs to choose from this time, and we'll have even more by the time we get to the studio," says frontman Ty Vaughn. I think this next record will be more like our first one [2007's Broadway Calls]. A little more diverse than just mid tempo pop punk the whole way through."
Ok, this is seriously and awesomely important.
Last week we did a little Autumn cleaning and went through a few boxes of test pressings. We decided that it'd be way better that fans have them than them sitting in boxes in our office. With that being said, the test pressings for the albums listed below are up for auction on our eBay.
There's more though. ALL of the proceeds from the Big D and the Kids Table Fluent In Stroll auction are going to Dave McWane to help cover the cost of his medical bills associated with his fight against throat cancer. Also, a portion of the proceeds from all the other auctions will be going to Dave as well.
Here's a list of all the test pressings that we have up for auction:

iTunes and SideOneDummy decided to start Christmas early this year. From now and throughout the Thanksgiving holiday, you can pick up tons of albums from $7.99 or less. A lot of people tend to overlook how awesome promotions like this usually are so we decided to include a picture so you can see that this sale ain't no joke. Not pictured is tis one of this year's most talked about record, The Horrible Crowes' "Elsie" among many other great SideOneDummy releases. If you do the iTunes thang, then this for you.

After close to a year off of touring, Broadway Calls hit the road with Living With Lions in support of their new EP Toxic Kids. With a six new songs under their belts, a new bass player on their side and a renewed energy, Broadway Calls are set to bring their pop-punk madness to North America.
We caught up with the band on the first day of the tour, at Vancouver's Media Club, to talk about the upcoming shows, their new EP and what it feels like teaming up with their old friend Adam Willis.
Broadway Calls recently did an interview with Ctrl Alt Rock. Head HERE to read the interview or click "Read More"!
One of the hardest working bands out there, and certainly close to being our favourite bunch of dudes behind some instruments, Broadway Calls are popping up all over America right now to promote the release of their latest EP 'Toxic Kids'. The lovely Ty Vaughan gave us a few minutes of his time and answered a couple of questions about the new music and getting back to the UK..
Bella: It's been a very long while since we caught up with you all in camp Broadway Calls, how is everyone doing?
Ty: We're great! Finally on the road again. Currently writing you from a basement in Hamilton, Ontario.
You guys are on the road right now, touring the new EP yeah? What's the reception at the shows been like to the newer songs?
Yeah we put out Toxic Kids pretty recently, and that's the main reason for this tour. That and Fest. So far, everyone seems really happy with the songs we put out. Kids singing along and all that. We usually play one or two new songs every night.
The art work for Toxic Kids is gorgeous. Who did it and how did that come to be?
I totally agree. Craig Horky is the artist. Josh (drummer) has a screen printing shop and he and Craig work pretty closely with design stuff for shirts and posters. Craig is amazing, and we're all really happy with the art. Josh sent him my lyrics to Toxic Kids and the idea behind the song and that's what he came up with. He came to our show in Michigan the other night, and gave us the original giant sketch for the cover art! It's so sweet. Going to be framed as soon as we get home.
Who exactly are 'Toxic Kids'?
Toxic Kids are a fictional group of oppressed people in a bleak future I imagined one night while watching the news. It's really scary how backwards some people in power think, and how against progress a lot of people are. It's terrifying to think that maybe we could actually move backwards in civil rights and freedom if certain people get just a little more power.
You guys have jumped on tumblr now as well as twitter. Who keeps those updated?
I do. Well, I try to. Twitter is easy with my phone. Tumblr I forget we have most of the time.
Do you guys prefer them or facebook for fan interaction / getting news out?
Twitter is just so casual. I just talk shit on there that sometimes has nothing to do with the band. I try to save the other social sites for things that are strictly band related. But, yes they are very nice tools to have at my disposal while trying to let people know about something that matters in our little world. Much better than depending on a news site or something.
Before the year is through, you're going to be back in europe and the UK. Have you got a lot of support out there? What are the bands like that you'll be out there with?
Yes! Finally getting back! We're going back over with our old friends The Swellers. It should be a blast. Usually it's best to tour with old friends, and new friends, and that's what we're doing this time. Into It. Over It. is coming along as well, and although we've never met, we have a lot of mutual friends, and I can tell by his twitter that he loves to eat as much as I do.
Is there anywhere you haven't been yet that you're busting to play?
All the Scandinavian countries. Anywhere in the Southern Hemisphere as well. Australia and New Zealand of course. Anywhere we can hang at a beach on our day off.
What's in store for broadway calls in 2012? Will we finally hear the new full length?
Yes. We went to see The Descendents in Chicago a few nights ago and talked to Bill Stevenson about recording the next album. We're all really excited. Sometimes I think Bill is even more excited than we are, but that's just because he is….. less reserved. We can't wait to make the next record, we just need to tour on this EP right now.
Finally, if broadway DID actually call, what would be the first musical you'd audition for?
Hedwig And The Angry Inch. We all know the lyrics already, and the songs are classics!!!

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
Haha it's all so horribly true... in the past week i have also
encountered a warlock needing on MY tanking cloak, a hunter who couldn't trap (because "traps suck bro"), several mages who never resheep, rogues (and a shaman) who mistakenly believe they leveled a warrior/tank, a ret paly with a shield...
And to cap it all off, a mage who pulled half a dozen mana worms which i quickly (and barely) tanked off him only to die on the last killing blow because our healer was afk (which is why we were waiting) when he pulled them... to which he said "lol"... not even sorry... should have just left him to it n headed back to the instance door til they reset in retrospect... but what kinda tank takes that attitude... gotta love a death defying rescue effort now and then :p
Though needless to say, i left after that...and the last thing he did was call me a noob for leaving... /banned... i would stick to the people on my friends list but they're all healers bar one mage from my guild.
Good dps are so few and far between... which is amazing considering it's the EASIEST JOB IN WOW! i mean c'mon, all you have to do is ATTACK THINGS IN THE ORDER I MARK THEM UP! and maybe WHEN ASSIGNED CC KEEP AN EYE ON THEM FROM TIME TO TIME?
IT'S NOT DIFFICULT! lol
(Capitals for any dps that happen to be reading this, just wanna drill that into their minds :p)
However on a plus note, i have occasionally (very very occasionally) found a group where it all goes so smoothly that half way through i'm not even marking more than skull for first kill and cc just do their thing, though it usually turns out i'm playing with alts and pretty much the entire group have tanks or healers as their mains. *faux shock* :o
anyway, venting over :p ... and good article man :)
Ok, right at first, I was offended. If you really think that DPS is the easiest job in the world, then you must be one of the smartest people in the world. Depending on my spec, I have alot of different options available to me. Right now, I play a hunter. I can't say if I'm a huntard or not, because I'm still learning. I practice chain trapping, and recently was introduced to the idea of using traps as interrupts. As a Beast Mastery Hunter, a good portion of my DPS comes from my friend, Styx, a cat. Ever tried to decide whether or not to pull back a pet, because how many times does that one last pet attack kill your target before he aggroe's the next group? Also, depending on the tank, it's very possible that my pet will pull a mob off the tank, so do I let my pet have free with it? Yes, my pet will survive, but then you have the tank sitting there having a heart attack, because they think they have lost aggro. I don't blame them for that at all, I sometimes heal on my paladin. I can't tank at all, and I know it. Eventually, I intend to respec as Marksmanship Hunter. Now, all of a sudden, I have several more damaging shots I can work with, and suddenly, I'm having to decide exactly where I need to activate each one to maximize my DPS. Aimed shot seems mostly useable as a starting shot, because if I try to use it in the middle of my autoshot rotations, I lose one of my autoshots. This doesn't even begin to start considering the "Crowd Control" of a Hunter. My Ice Trap lasts about 20 second at 70, with a 30 second CD. Traps last less time the lower the level, though I'm not really certain when it changed. As far as my pet is concerned, I had to go out and find beasts I could tame, to manage to get the necessary skills to bring his DPS up to a proper level. It just seems to me that the statement of it's the easiest job in the world is completely false. It IS the easiest job in the world to be a Huntard, it's not, however, the easiest job in the world to be a GOOD DPS.
ok, so yes, you need to maximize your dps... and your pet, yes you need to keep it healed... and your traps, yes they have a longer cooldown than they last... however...
a) clever traps... learn it.
b) get omen, work out a rotation of your abilities with maximum damage output... dps until your just below the tank in threat... job done.
c) Your traps... you have a specific length of time until they fail... you should know when they're about to and you can focus on being ready to kite then trap them again.
Though this isn't usually a problem since with hunters i tend to only ask them to do it once, because i always take a mage with me... this allows me to cc 2 mobs, nuke one during trap time then be ready to pick up that mob and add it to the group i'm tanking.
Though good chain trapping is always welcome, i'm usually confronted by a hunter who's still dpsing whilst being charged down and about to be hit in the back of the head by the mob they trapped if i ask for that.
d) As for your pet stealing agro... as long as he's attacking the right target this will rarely if ever happen... well, with a good tank... and if he does get agro, the tank will get it back again within seconds.
There are alot of pets i've just left to die because i got sick and tired of hunters trying to off tank mobs instead of focusing on the marked targets (even when i told them repeatedly).
And yes, your job is the easiest in the game... all you need do is focus on your threat meter, attacking and remember your trap timers... i need to focus on everything and everyone, so does the healer.
Though i will admit in a very good group tanking isn't that hard. What makes tanking hard is the unexpected and stupid mistakes made by others...
And nah, you don't seem like a huntard timothy... your reply was well thought out and intelligible... and you didn't call me a noob once :p
I am my guild's raiding MT, and I have a 25 man raid MH in another guild , AND I have a raiding DPS.
Yes, maximizing dps takes learning your class, and yes CC takes attention.
However, the stress level of DPS vs. tanking or healing...is almost nothing. That is where the "dps is easy" comes from.
It has to do with focus, attention and the challenge of dealing with the unexpected.
Until you play all three, it is hard to understand...but yes, dps is less work.

See Quentin Tarantino's Kill Bill Volume 1 and Volume 2 film duet as it was intended to be seen - on a big screen and back-to-back in Kill Bill: The Whole Bloody Affair. The story of a bride who seeks revenge on a former lover who busted up her wedding by killing everyone in the church - including the groom - and leaving her for dead, it takes Tarantino two films to finally kill Bill. And audiences love every minute of it. You'll see one of Tarantino's favorite actors, Uma Thurman, in spectacular martial arts fight scenes. And the late David Carradine appears in one of his most notable roles as the brutal assassin Bill. Also seen in this movie are Japanese actor Kenji Ohaba and Chinese actor Hui Liu. While they may not be famous in America, both performers played important roles in the history of martial arts movies early in their careers. 7 p.m. Alamo Drafthouse Cinema, Houston, 1000 West Oaks Mall.

Evening updatePosted on January 19th, 2009 – 8:11 PM
By La Velle
Heard from a source today that the Twins aren't that far apart with righthander Eric Gagne but a second source cautioned that the club is looking at a handful of relievers and nothing was close. But it sounds like the Twins would like to get something done this week. It's getting close to move-to-Florida time, so there should be a bunch of signings over the next couple of weeks.
Just heard about Joe Mauer's comments to KMSP (good thing I had an early dinner tonight). Checked with assistant GM Rob Antony (who was still in his office). "Will he be ready to go all out the first day of camp. I wouldn't say that," Antony said. "But it won't be an issue."
If it was a knee, shoulder, foot or wrist surgery, I would be more concerned. It was a minor kidney surgery. Unfortunately for Mauer, whatever bugged him threw him off his offseason workout plans. I'm guessing he'll be in the gym a lot during the first few days of camp,
And wouldn't it look strange if he was bouncing around camp as if nothing was wrong right after pulling out of the World Baseball Classic? I kind of expected him to ease into camp this year.

Capture One and Lightroom 5 for Fuji X RAW files
It's been a while since I wrote a technical article on photography but I've been doing so much RAW processing with the Fuji X-E1 recently that I felt compelled to share some of my experiences. Basically, this past week I've been experimenting with RAW converters and had some interesting findings which may be of use. I'll give an example photo below, processed in both Lightroom and Capture One, and then explain a little about how I've modified my workflow to have these two apps play together nicely.
First, I'll provide a bit of context and say that I adore Lightroom. I recently upgraded to Lightroom 5 (mostly for the selective editing) and until this article, had been performing 95%+ of my editing with Lightroom. I have Photoshop too but since Lightroom has just kept getting better and better, I've ended up using it using LR5 for almost everything from workflow to post processing. I also print a fair amount and love it's integration with Blurb.
However, the one drawback with LR5 is that while it's an excellent RAW converter, it occasionally struggles with Fuji's RAF format. In the past week or so of fairly extensive testing, I've found LR5 to be lacking compared to Capture One. The difference in the vast majority of cases is only minor, with just a little loss of sharpness. However, in some cases there is a fairly noticeable difference in fairly random ways ,such as a substantial loss in color. Here's an example shot of the Seattle skyline taken a few weeks ago. This is opened in Capture One without any processing applied. Technical details are;
- Fuji X-E1 + Fuji 18-55 f2.8-4 lens with a B+W ND 110 filter
- Focal length: 18mm
- Exposure time: 2 mins 40s
- Aperture: f7.1
Here's a 100% crop (again unprocessed):
Now, here's the same file opened in LR5 and zoomed to 100% (again, no processing applied):
This is one of those cases where there is a difference, it's minor. Both apps are doing a great job.
However, there is a difference. It might be hard to tell from the above due to the resizing that's prob happening on Tumblr but the edges from Capture One are a sharper as well as the noise being slightly cleaner. And as I mentioned earlier, under some conditions it's v noticeable (particularly with certain colors). So when I considered all the other steps / expense I go thru to preserve image quality, I made the decision to modify my workflow and add Capture One into the mix.
So, here's how my workflow now looks like with both Capture One and Lightroom.
The Basics - Importing images into C1
- Using C1, select Import Images
- Set the "Import From" to the right place on your SD Card
- Set the "Import to" a local folder. In my case, I use the following naming convention: YYYY-MM-DD-CameraName-Keyword e.g. 2013-05-30-Fuji XE1-Alki Sunset
- I also apply a filter so I only import RAW files (filter by extension RAF). This is necessary because I shoot in RAW+JPG
Prepping Adobe Lightroom for importing
I now setup LR by making use of Auto Import. I do this by selecting "Auto Import Settings" and keeping the Watched folder to be a constant folder (in my case it's always something like C:\import).
For destination, I choose the folder name created above (in my case 2013-05-30-Fuji XE1-Alki Sunset) with a subfolder name (In my case "Lightroom"). This is how my settings look:
This means that when a file is processed in Capture One, it'll be imported into Lightroom while being copied to the a sub folder called Lightroom in the same directory. To do this successfully, there's another couple of steps. But first processing.
Processing in Capture One
I perform basic adjustments in Capture One. This took a bit of getting used to as I was so used to LR5, but it's pretty easy to get the hang of. . In this image's case, I performed:
Rate the image (using star ratings)
Image crop
Slight tint adjustment (to enhance those purple tones)
Increase exposure (by nearly 1 stop)
Increase contrast +20
Increase Highlight recovery (+90)
Increase Shadow recovery (+20)
Slight addition of clarity (+5)
Exporting from Capture One / Importing to Lightroom
Now it's time to export the image from Capture One. Here I export to a constant folder (in my case c:\import which I used above). I use the following settings:
Format: TIFF (I usually choose 8 bit color)
Everything else standard
The file dialog looks something like this:
Now this is where the previous setup in Lightroom really helps. As soon as the image has finished processing on the Capture One side, it'll be exported to your named directory (in my case, c:\import) where Adobe will be monitoring and import it into Lightroom, and copy the original TIF into the sub directory. Without doing anything, it suddenly appears in Lightroom where you're now you're free to finish any other processing in Lightroom. For me, in this image's case, it just meant some basic sharpening and luminance Noise reduction (as well as assigning a keyword for more effective organization).
Finally, I then export a web resolution sized version to a folder containing all my 2013 images which is synced with Skydrive (Microsoft's version of Dropbox, except with 7GB for free).
This was my final output (click the image for a larger version):
So, a little complicated to get it right at first, but once I got used to it, it's really not a big deal. In the end, I find it more satisfying to have the greater control that Capture One affords.

This is my Nessie story to go along with my Seth and Embry imprint Story.

Now we stood hopeless and alone against their menacing power.

Stars in Bright Makeup
Stay In the Same Color Family
At the BAFTA Tea Party in Los Angeles, Charlize Theron rocked a satiny poppy lip.
With orange-based colors like this, pick out a dress that compliments your lip color. "Because Charlize's dress is yellow, it works with the strong red tones in her lip, and the look feels very summery," said makeup artist Pati Dubroff, who works with Theron. "Keep eye shadows in warm hues like gold or copper, and give skin a quick sweep of peach blush or bronzer to create a glow."
Keep It Simple
At the AFI Awards in Beverly Hills, Rooney Mara wore a dusty blue shadow.
Because Mara's eye shadow is more grey than cerulean, it's a baby step into the world of colored shadow. Keep the rest of the makeup on your face to a minimum -- save for a few coats of mascara -- so your eyes can take a subtle center stage.
Go for a Contrast
Julianne Moore went for a juicy berry lip at the amFAR Gala in New York City.
It's all about the contrasting cool and warm tones. "If Julianne had worn an orangey red, the look would get muddy because there wouldn't be as much of a difference between her lip and her hair," Dubroff said. "Blue tones are striking against pale skin." Moore's bright berry works on fair and dark skin colors alike, but opt for a more rosy shade if your tone is slightly warmer.
Start with a Blank Canvas
Glee actress Naya Rivera sported a cool fuchsia lipstick for her birthday in Las Vegas.
When choosing a statement-making shade, Rivera's makeup artist Jo Baker advises starting from scratch. "The key to pulling off any bold lip color is to begin with smooth, conditioned lips, then mute out the natural color," she said. "Use an almost dry swipe of foundation from either a brush or sponge, and dab onto the lip. This will give you a neutral starting point."
Anchor Pastels
Emma Stone wore petal pink shadow to the 84th Annual Academy Awards in Los Angeles.
Stone's pastel eyes looked less Barbie-ish and more sophisticated thanks to a little definition. "Pink eye shadows on their own tend to make eyes look sickly," said Rachel Goodwin, who created Stone's look. "What really grounded the shadow was the winged-out black eyeliner. Especially if you have light eyes like Emma, even a thin swipe of liner will tie the look together."
Mind Your Finish
Kirsten Dunst wore hot pink lipstick to the 17th Annual Critics' Choice Awards.
When using strong colors like Dunst's pink, stay away from glossy finishes to keep the look modern. "Matte or creamy finishes with this color make more of a statement," said Dubroff. "This is about a punch of saturated color, rather than a glass-like sheen. Color this intense would look too '80s if you made it glossy."
Remember Muted Metallics
Fergie matched her orange eye shadow to her dress at the 2012 Grammys.
Pairing a flat orange shadow with the singer's bold citrus dress would be too matchy-matchy, which is why makeup artist Ronit Shapow added bronze tones to Fergie's look. "I added a pop of warm gold shadow to the center of her lid using my fingertip to soften the color," Shapow said. The same rules apply for other bold colors: pewter pairs well with green, gold tempers bright yellow.

I was absolutely stunned to hear the news last night that Mike Flanagan was dead at the age of 59. As someone who used to frequent 33rd street as a kid, Flanagan was one of my heroes. Left handed like me, I used to pretend I was Mike when pitching in the backyard with friends. I will choose to think of the positive memories about Flanny. The 1979 Cy Young Award, being a part of the 83 World Series champion Baltimore Orioles. Finishing the last game at Memorial Stadium with not a dry eye in the house, and being a part of a combined no hitter in Oakland. It sucks to lose your heroes. RIP "Flanny"

Combining high-class erotic photography and debaucherous hardcore face, pussy, and ass-fucking into one tasty package, Explicite Art's head honcho, John B. Root, has managed to carve out quite an impressive niche for himself in the global cyberporn market. Europe's hottest nude models drop by Root's studio or a stunning natural location and proceed to fuck themselves, each other, and any stiff dick that happens to be on set. From tender lesbian kissing to rough and sweaty double-penetrations, Explicite Art combines the best of the hardcore world with the artistic inclinations of softcore erotica to create a perfect hybrid of both adult worlds.
Home to the likes of Lexington Steele, Manuel Ferrara, and the babiest babes in porn, Pornstar Network attracts plenty of visitors with its 54-site collection of hardcore pornography. As this enormous network moves into the future, adding some great HD video content along the way, it comes time once again to examine its worth. Is Pornstar Network the infallible distributor of continually impressive porn we've always loved, has it been slipping behind the competition, or is it so far ahead of the curve that it's in a realm all its own? Mr. Pink, as always, has the answer!
Denys Defrancesco is a man who knows women. He knows how beautiful they look under certain lights. He knows how to convince them to enter a career in porn. He even knows how to turn "I'll only pose nude and masturbate," into "Sure, I'll suck however many dicks show up on the day!" And we, dear reader, should be thankful for his skills and efforts, for without Denys Defrancesco, there'd be no Only Blowjob and that would be a damn shame.
Crack open a Tolkien tome and sit in the park across from a pre-release showing of a Star Wars, Star Trek, or superhero movie and you just might catch the attention of a nerd, particularly one of the more delicate and feminine variety. If your IRL efforts have amounted to nada, though, perhaps you should turn to Naughty Bookworms to live out your fantasies. A Naughty America site that sees every nerdy girl from Asgard to Middle Earth to Westeros get her fill of rock hard dick. (And perhaps a book recommendation or two, too!)
If the design of a brasserie can be considered "art" and erotic photography can be considered "art", imagine what erotic photographs of beautiful women wearing exquisitely designed lingerie could be called! The folks behind Only Tease and its sister sites seem to be of the mind that Art Lingerie is an appropriate term. So appropriate, in fact, that they've created a site of the same name built entirely around the idea that classy, seductive lingerie on a naturally beautiful model can, and indeed should be considered art. One look at Art Lingerie's tour pages and you'll be hard pressed to disagree, I'm sure.
Wet and Puffy takes pussy appreciation to grand new heights with a 450-scene collection of high-res photos and 1080p HD videos that deliver (almost) unprecedented detail and will have you staring slack-jawed at the vulvae, labia, clitorides, perinea, and public hair both abundant and sparse. The site has its fair share of troubles, though, so don't expect completely smooth sailing… well, not until you find your new favorite clean shaven model and her immaculately kept cooter, that is.
Unable to be contained by Terrycloth short-shorts or bikini-cut panties, the heftiest rear ends in the Brazzers stable have come to this site with only one goal in mind: to have their asses exposed, doused in oil, water, or something resembling milk, and fucked by one of porn's most capable studs. Big Wet Butts is a legendary part of the Brazzers brand and hosts many debut anal and DP scenes, as well as some non-anal content for good measure. Whether you're already a devotee of "going Greek" or just getting into anal porn, Big Wet Butts is among the best and brightest adult sites of its kind.
Known in the adult entertainment industry as the originator of what is now termed "the California Style", William Higgins didn't start out setting trends and revolutionizing homosexual porn as we know it. He started out just taking pictures. Now, after four years in his new-ish online digs, William Higgins is doing better work than ever. His hunky, twinky models pose seductively, pleasure themselves, and, yes, engage in mass copulation, and it's all capture brilliantly by the camera of Mr. William Higgins.

Casual car fans are probably not familiar with the brand Tirrito Vajon, and for the most part, we can't really blame them.
The Italian niche supercar maker is set to release its latest toy for the big boys, the Ayrton S, at the 21010 Top Marques Monaco but a lot of us are wishing that the company hold off their introductions just a little while longer.
Make no mistake, with a 627 horsepower output, the car is obviously fast – credit goes to the car's BMW M5 V10-powered engine – but it's the car's appearance that leaves a lot to be desired. And that may even be an understatement.
Among the things that we find a little off for a supposed supercar are the Vajon's headlights, which, at first glance, look a lot like halogen lights you'd find in a bathroom. The car also looks like a compressed – and stiff – version of a Lamborghini, making us question the aesthetic taste of these guys.
Forgive us for being brutally blunt, but how can you trust somebody that can't even spell 'revealed' right. Check out the video to see exactly what we mean.

Selmer Paris Super Session Soprano Saxophone MouthpieceThe Selmer Super Session is a high level professional mouthpiece, specially designed for jazz playing, but also suitable for more academic playing. It has a wide dynamic range and extreme flexibility of sound.
Order today with the no-risk assurance of our Total Satisfaction and Low Price Guarantees!
This mpc can give you a warm finesse type sound heard by many smooth jazz soprano players today. It delivers a well rounded full bodied depth (if your chops can deliver) of sound. I have owned mine for about three months now and I am very pleased with it. I play a Yamaha Custom EX soprano with Vandoren traditional #3 reeds. For my ear, this setup creates a very inviting sound. Again, warm, clear and delivering perfect intonation.
After years of fighting with soprano using various other mouthpieces from Link to Bari to metal Selmer to Vandoren, my friend suggested I should try the Super Session. I have been playing on a G for over a year now and in my humble opinion this is the best soprano mouthpiece on the market! I tried the Jody Jazz as a comparison and felt that the Super Session was much more free blowing. I use it in conjunction with Vandoren ZZ 3's and the Vandoren Optimum Ligature. It is versatile enough to cope with any style you require of it, even playing altissimo register and multiphonics effectively! I highly recommend this mouthpiece.
I am new to Soprano, (Alto player for many years) and bought an intermediate Keilwerth last year, have had problems getting high notes and it seemed so hard to play and keep in tune (with the standard mouthpiece that came with it). I just got a Super Session standard size E and couldn't believe the difference! Ease of playing much better, sound bigger, tone better, intonation much improved.
I've used Dukoff D6, Jody Jazz esp, Bari, Otto Link, Sugal, and
several other aborted missions on my sopranos. The SPSS sounds and feels like the best features of all put together. I used to pair an ideal mthpc to each sax but this one works with them all.
I've been in the market for a new soprano mouthpiece for a LONG time. I've tried runyons, Jody Jazz (which I use and LOVE on my selmer series III alto), links, and practically anything else you can name. Nothing even came close to the super session. I ordered facings H, I, and J. I ended up with the I facing and I use a standard metal ligature (may try something new), and vandoren java 2 1/2's. I'm using an LA sax 650 horn so it's not the greatest, but this mouthpiece makes it sing. I can play it (and I have) in a jazz setting, or I fit in perfectly in a classical setting. Definitely no need for a second mouthpiece for both genres here. This has you covered. I might even replace my C* on my alto with one of these.
In my opinion, this is easily the best soprano mouthpiece on the market today. And the fact that it is not tough on the wallet makes it just oh so sweeter.

Did you get an email saying you were denied membership in SCBWI membergroup on the Blueboard? If you did, ignore it. During the merger we allowed people to "request" SCBWI membergroup status so we would know who needed to be added to that group. But Josh at SCBWI created a program to automatically give all SCBWI members their correct status. Those old requests have been cleared out, generating emails to some of you. I apologize for any confusion. <hiding under her desk> Verla Kay

Testimony continued downtown in the federal civil trial involving two former Fairbanks city police officers will claim they were improperly fired in 2008.
Former Lieutenant Doug Whorton and Officer Al Hutton are seeking compensation for lost wages and benefits as well as punitive damages.
They argue they were dismissed in retaliation for going to former Fairbanks City Mayor Terry Strle in 2008 to talk about workplace safety, union business and nepotism in the department.
Back in 2010, in an exclusive interview with News Center 11, Hutton said it was his hope that filing civil action could have been avoided.
Also taking the witness stand for the defendants were former Fairbanks Police Chief Dan Hoffman, and current Deputy Chief Brad Johnson.
Both were initially named in the lawsuit, but were dismissed by U.S. District Court Judge Ralph Beistline who is overseeing the trial.
Proceedings are expected to last at least two weeks at the Fairbanks Federal Building.

I'm finishing up the seminar part of our business. (25 Posts)

I'm finishing up the seminar part of our business.I'm going to do two more years and then shut up. I'll still be writing (if you keep reading) and I'll have more time to do things with this site that I've been wanting to try. That's my idea of retirement; I'm going to be reading and writing. I'll be 66 in two years and that's enough.
So as I move through these cities during the next two years it will most likely be for the last time in those places. It's been a grand run and I'm looking forward to bringing it to a close in two years. I hope we get a chance to spend some time together between now and then.

Sure was fun.Dan, I truly enjoyed every opportunity I have had to attend your seminars.
I was in Groton, Ct. with Bob Hot Rod Rohr last night. I told him about the time you gave a hydronic sermon for about 3 or 4 people. I think I first met Hot Rod at wet stock # 1. How long ago was that ? Dan , you touched a lot of people and caused them to learn and grow. Thank you. The first website I ever went to on the internet was Heating Help . Com . back in the wild frontier days, then it was on to area 51 .............

Fair WarningThanks for the warning Dan. I can only guess how much work it is to put on seminars.
So, here's an idea. Why not film the ones coming up and get them on DVD or download so we all can continue to learn? A good film guy and some editing can go a long way!
Now we just need a title.... "The Virtual Dan Series" :~)
Yours, Larry

Say It Isn't SoWell, I get the part that you will have more time to "hug your kids".
Your last session (damn, this still hasn't set in) will be a very special event to be sure (kind of like your very first Power Point presentation :-)). Thank you Dan for all you have done for our industry - you are a true hydronic icon and always will be. Unfortunate the new guys coming into the business (hopefully) will not have the opportunity to here "Dan the Man" live.
Thanks for the advanced warning - and good food for thought for all of us "aging" hydronic guys - this wonderful thing we are all part of won't last for ever - have fun while you can...

"Steam Troubleshooter"This has been a remarkably busy heating season, so please forgive my late reply to this thread.
A couple years after being appropriately enlightened by The Lost Art of Steam Heating, I attended my first steam heating classes. Here is the certificate from what was probably my first Dan Holohan seminar 17 years ago.
Brings back memories.
Over the years, I've met some pretty incredible people at those seminars and have kept in touch as best I could. We've learned from each other and helped each other through some pretty intense challenges and changes in our professional and personal lives. You've built a community here that I'm honored to be a part of.
Dan, you've helped me grow my business and you've brought me to a better understanding of the systems I come in contact with nearly every day. I owe my reputation to you, and my gratitude can not be expressed for what you've put into this industry. I'm only glad to have been around to get to know your work and you, personally, these past ~20 years.
I wish all the best for you and your incredible family in the future.
Thanks for...well... everything.

"The last run"I second the "Dan in a Can" DVD idea. Doing seminars is grueling, and nobody can keep it going forever. You certainly have made a great difference in the heating industry, and we thank you for it. As long as "The Wall" remains, it still can be a source of education and inspiration to current and future Wetheads. Thanks!

It's a partial wrapHi Dan:
No one deserves to get time off more than you and the lovely Marianne. The industry of energy comfort and efficiency has never had anyone with the level of expertise and commitment to explain concepts which are only normal at MIT, and, yes, this Old House of God can still hear the priest from the pulpit comfortably thanks to you.
I am glad to see that you are getting an opportunity to spend quality time with your family and hope that you will be able to continue those parts of your enterprise which are less stressful than travelling with all of your equipment. Thanks for all that you do!

Honors & Awards
Junior (2013-14)Hailie Sample earned a spot on the Big Ten All-Defensive Team while producing her best season as a Husker in 2013-14. She averaged 6.2 points, 6.4 rebounds and 2.2 assists per game during the regular season, while continuing to play strong perimeter defense.
The 6-1 junior forward from Flower Mound, Texas, produced career season highs in points (206), rebounds (212), assists (73), blocks (17) and steals (21). She also shot career bests of 46.4 percent from the field and 67.6 percent from the free throw line.
Sample closed the season especially strong, posting double-doubles in two of her final three games, including 10 points and 10 rebounds in Nebraska's second-round NCAA Tournament loss to BYU on March 24, 2014, in Los Angeles. It was her third career double-double and second in two appearances in the NCAA second round. She notched her first career double-double with 10 points and 11 rebounds in a second-round win over No. 9 Texas A&M at College Station on March 25, 2013.
In two 2014 NCAA Tournament games, Sample played all but one minute, hitting 5-of-10 shots from the field and 6-of-8 free throws to average 8.0 points and 8.5 rebounds per game.
Sample produced one of best overall games of her career by notching her second career double-double with 11 points and a career-high 15 rebounds in Nebraska's 2014 Big Ten Tournament Championship Game victory over No. 23 Iowa on March 9 at Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. Sample's 30 total rebounds in three games led the tournament, while her 16 offensive rebounds were also a tournament best. She averaged 6.7 points and 10.0 rebounds in helping the Huskers to their first-ever conference tournament title.
Over the final five games of 2013-14 (Big Ten and NCAA Tournament), Sample averaged 7.8 points and 9.4 rebounds per game.
Sample finished with nine double-figure scoring games as a junior, including 12 points on 4-of-4 shooting at Michigan Feb. 13. She had 10 points and seven rebounds in a win at Wisconsin Feb. 5. She also had 10 points and six rebounds in a win at Iowa Feb. 1.
Sample scored a season-high 13 points in a win over Creighton on Dec. 14. She added 12 points and five rebounds against No. 22 Purdue Jan. 19. She had 11 points, six rebounds and four assists against Washington State Nov. 30. She also had 10 points at No. 18 North Carolina.
Sample, who has started 100 consecutive games alongside Emily Cady, added eight points, eight rebounds and four assists in just 23 minutes in a win over Arkansas-Pine Bluff Nov. 21. She pitched in six points and three assists in just 22 minutes in a win over Utah State Dec. 8. She added six points, six rebounds, five assists and a career-high two blocks in a win over South Dakota Dec. 21.
Sample joined Cady, Tear'a Laudermill and Brandi Jeffery in the most successful recruiting class in Nebraska history. The quartet has led the Huskers to 75 wins and three consecutive NCAA Tournament trips. They will have a chance to become the first class in history to lead the Big Red to four straight NCAA Tournament appearances in 2015.
"Hailie is a big guard who is very versatile and a smart basketball player at both ends," Yori said. "She is a tough, smart and aggressive defensive player who is a perfect fit for our defensive system. She can also score on the block and create opportunities for herself and teammates off the dribble."
Sophomore (2012-13)Sample added more production for the Huskers as a sophomore while providing solid defense. The 6-1 forward from Texas averaged 4.8 points, 4.6 rebounds and 1.6 assists per game.
She produced arguably the best game of her career with 10 points and 11 rebounds in Nebraska's second-round NCAA Tournament win at No. 9 Texas A&M March 25. Her 11 boards tied a career high on her way to her first career double-double. She scored eight points in the final five minutes to seal the win, while notching just her third double-figure scoring effort of the season. She had four points, four boards and two assists in NU's first-round win over Chattanooga March 23, before adding six boards and an assist in the NCAA Norfolk Regional semifinal loss to No. 5 Duke March 31.
Sample averaged 7.0 points and 4.5 rebounds at the Big Ten Tournament. She hit the game-winning shot with 43 seconds left in NU's 55-53 win at Wisconsin on Feb. 28. She finished with six points. She also hit a pair of clutch free throws with less than 30 seconds left in NU's 76-75 win at Iowa Feb. 11. She finished with four points, four rebounds and a career-high six assists at Iowa.
Sample had a career-high 20 points against Creighton Dec. 5. It was her first career 20-point game, doubling her previous career high, which she matched with 10 points in NU's season-opening win over North Carolina A&T Nov. 9.
Sample had nine points, six rebounds and three assists in a loss to No. 11 Maryland Nov. 28. She added nine points, six rebounds, two assists and a block in NU's win at Minnesota Jan. 20.

She added five points, including her second three of the year against ORU Dec. 20. Sample had six points, eight rebounds and two assists in a win at South Florida Dec. 16.
Sample started all 34 games for the Huskers as a sophomore, despite battling leg and back injuries during the offseason of 2012 that limited her preseason practice. She entered the season at less than full strength without much preseason basketball conditioning.
Freshman (2011-12)Sample averaged 3.8 points, 3.8 rebounds and 1.2 assists per game on the season, including 7.5 points, 4.0 rebounds and 1.8 assists in the Big Ten Tournament.She matched season highs with back-to-back 10-point games in tourney wins over Northwestern and Iowa, after producing just one double-figure scoring effort (Minnesota, Jan. 22) during the regular season. She added eight points and six rebounds in the semifinal win over No. 14 Ohio State.
Sample finished the year with a trio of double-figure scoring performances and a pair of double-figure rebounding marks.
Over the last nine regular-season games, Sample stepped up her production, averaging 6.2 points, 4.2 boards and 1.2 assists per game. Through the first 23 games, Sample averaged just 3.0 points per contest. However, she played just 13 minutes in NU's NCAA Tournament loss to Kansas on March 18, after she missed the previous week of practice with a stress reaction in her lower leg.
In the Big Ten Tournament win over Iowa, Sample matched her season highs in points (10), assists (4) and blocks (2), while also knocking down the first three-pointer of her career.
She opened the tournament with 10 points, three assists and a steal in an 88-56 win over Northwestern on March 1.
Sample had eight points on 4-of-6 shooting at Minnesota Feb. 13. She followed with six points against Northwestern Feb. 16, which included a career-high 11 rebounds with seven offensive boards. She had five points, two rebounds, two steals a block and an assist in NU's win over Wisconsin Feb. 19. She also scored five points, including 3-of-4 free throw shooting in NU's 71-57 win over No. 8 Ohio State Feb. 26. She had three points, nine boards and a career-high two blocks in a career-high 40 minutes in NU's epic 93-89 3OT win at No. 15 Purdue Feb. 2.
She had nine points and a season-high four assists at Georgia Tech, after producing eight points, six rebounds and three assists in NU's win at Florida A&M. She had two points and 10 rebounds in 24 minutes in a win over No. 23 USC Nov. 18. She added five points at Northern Arizona, before contributing three points and eight boards in a win over South Dakota State Dec. 21.Sample pitched in five points, three rebounds and a block in NU's win at No. 16 Penn State Dec. 30.
During Nebraska's 11-day summer tour to Europe, Aug. 5-15, 2011, Sample averaged 4.5 points, 2.8 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 0.8 steals per game.
High SchoolSample averaged 15 points, 10 rebounds and seven assists per game as a junior for Coach Pamela Owens at Marcus High School. She was also a three-time first-team Texas All-District 6-5A selection and a three-time 6-5A Defensive Player of the Year. She helped Marcus to a 23-13 overall record as a junior.
Sample also competed for the North Texas Shockers club team coached by John Shields. She averaged 20 points, 11 rebounds and nine assists per game for the Shockers, who won the Deep South Classic in April and the Run for the Roses in July of 2010.
She was an all-star at the adidas Top 10 camp in Atlanta and was named the MVP of the Nebraska Women's Basketball Camp she attended in the summer of 2009.
A talented all-around athlete, Sample was also a four-year letterwinner in track and field, competing in both the shot put and discus. She set Marcus High School records on her way to winning the 6-5A District title in both events in 2010. Sample was also a member of the English Honor Society, an officer on the student council, and a member of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes.
PersonalThe daughter of Jim and Mindy Sample, Hailie was born Feb. 15, 1993, in Odessa, Texas. She has one older sister, Heather Feist, and one older brother. Hailie is majoring in biological sciences at Nebraska.
Sample chose Nebraska over North Carolina State.
