Rumors are floating around that there is more to the story of Summer Rae and Layla El teaming up than what WWE tells us on television. Many are saying that the move was in response to Velvet Sky and Angelina Love being back together in TNA. Management wanted to reunite LayCool, but since Michelle McCool was not interested in making a full time return, they opted to go with Summer Rae, as the two of them share a physical resemblance.
July 19, 2014
For those that missed Impact Wrestling this week, Gail Kim is the new TNA Knockouts Champion after defeating Angelina Love in a match. Rumors are floating around that the company made the title switch because they want to use the belt to enhance an upcoming program between Gail and the returning Taryn Terrell. Some feel that this will lead to TNA giving the belt to Taryn before the end of the year.
July 4, 2014
One of the reasons why TNA decided to put Angelina Love and Velvet Sky back together again was because they have been consistently able to draw in strong numbers for Impact Wrestling. This past episode, however, drew really low numbers. While some may be jumping to conclusions, it is being said that TNA officials are simply chalking it up as an anomaly.
June 12, 2014
While she has been back with the company for a bit of time now, Angelina Love has not been working live events for TNA.

The TNA Knockouts website has undergone a bit of a makeover, with the company making some modifications to the layout and adding some new performers.

While it is almost all but certain that she will be making a return to the company this summer, there are also rumors floating around that TNA is going to give Taryn Terrell a huge push when she does come back. Expect to see her being thrown into a feud with Angelina Love for the Knockouts Championship. TNA has always been pretty high on her work, especially during the period before she left after becoming pregnant.
May 20, 2014
With Angelina Love making her return to TNA after several years away from the company, that has sparked the itch in another former Knockout. Taylor Wilde, who was a former champion in the company, wants to return to TNA. No word yet on whether or not Dixie Carter is interested in a reunion, as the company has been rather busy signing performers as of late.
May 6, 2014
At TNA Sacrifice 2014, Angelina Love was able to steal the Knockouts Championship from Madison Rayne, thanks to plenty of help from Velvet Sky, who was physically involved throughout the match.

April 3, 2014

Several non WWE stars will be in Louisiana that weekend, including Mickie James and Angelina Love, who are working a big match for an independent wrestling company.
March 4, 2014
Mickie James is working a big match against Angelina Love during Wrestlemania 30 weekend for an independent wrestling promotion, so she is back in New Orleans this week to do some promotional work for the show. Promoters are hoping to really do well with this show, as they can capitalize on all the WWE fans heading into town that weekend.

Penticton & South Okanagan News
Violent robbery in Osoyoos
The Osoyoos RCMP have video surveillance of the ATM robbery at Spirit Ridge Resort in Osoyoos, early Friday morning.
In the incident, two suspects can be seen entering the front lobby occupied by a front desk security guard. The first suspect sprayed the employee with bear spray. The second followed behind carrying a red dolly.
With the guard incapacitated from the bear spray, the suspects quickly made their way past the front desk and towards the ATM machine removing it out the back door.
In the video surveillance, both suspects are observed wearing dark clothing including hoodies and facial covering.
The RCMP received a later call of the ATM being found on Mt. Baldy Road. It had been pried open and all of the money was stolen.
Violent robberies and the theft of ATM machines are not common occurrences in the family friendly town and resort, leading the RCMP to believe the suspects targeted the machine and had knowledge of the surrounding area.
Should anyone recognize the suspects or have information that could lead to their apprehension, they are asked to contact the RCMP at (250) 495-7236.

NEWS » Seven Highlighted Points from APEC 2013
Seven Highlighted Points from APEC 2013
Date Published : 08 October 2013 Author : Admin
Nusa Dua, APEC 2013 - Seven highlighted points have been agreed upon during the entire series of meetings held for the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) in 2013, by the 21th APEC Economic Leaders' Meeting in Nusa Dua, Bali.
"We have just concluded the 21st APEC Economic Leaders' Meeting which I chaired. I am pleased to say that our summit went successfully and was indeed very productive. In the course of two days, we discussed thoroughly the central theme of APEC 2013: Resilient Asia-Pacific, Engine of Global Growth. After our intensive deliberations, we agreed on a number of strategic points. Let me now highlight seven of them," stated the Indonesian President, Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, at the Bali Nusa Dua Convention Centre (BNDCC), on Tuesday (8/10).
First, the APEC Leaders agreed to redouble efforts to attain the Bogor Goals by 2020. APEC Leaders shared a view that all economies must continue to gain from APEC. In line with this commitment, APEC Leaders have also agreed to take further steps to empower, attract and open opportunities for all stakeholders, to participate in APEC.
Second, APEC Leaders agreed to increase intra-APEC trade, or intra-regional trade in Asia-Pacific, including trade facilitation, capacity building, and the functioning of multilateral trading system. The multilateral trading system is recognition that the promotion of intra-regional trade cooperation in Asia and the Pacific brings concrete benefits to APEC economies. "In this regard, we have agreed on a declaration which supports the multilateral trading system. We have also agreed to ensure the success of the upcoming 9th WTO Ministerial Conference in Bali, in December 2013," President Yudhoyono explained.
Third, APEC Leaders agreed to expedite people-to-people connectivity. In this regard, the strategic landscape for connectivity through the development of and investment in infrastructure. Connectivity may help reduce production and transportation cost, strengthen the regional supply chain, and improve the regional business climate. At the same time, infrastructure development and connectivity will create more jobs and ensure job security.
Fourth, APEC Leaders reaffirmed their commitments to the attainment of strong, balanced, sustainable and inclusive global growth. To this end, APEC Leaders agreed to facilitate Small, Middle, and Micro Enterprises (SMMEs), youth, and female entrepreneurs. SMMEs are the backbone of the economy.
Fifth, bearing in mind resource scarcity, APEC Leaders agreed to establish regional collaboration in order to improve food, energy and water security. This effort was aimed at addressing challenges to population growth and the adverse impacts of climate change. "At this Bali summit, we began to look at this matter in a holistic manner," said President Yudhoyono.
Sixth, APEC Leaders have agreed to ensure synergy in APEC and complement each others multilateral and regional processes, such as the East Asia Summit and G20. This is essential because the world is marked by multiple architectures of economic partnerships.
Seventh, APEC Leaders agreed upon close cooperation with the business sector through ABAC to accomplish free and open trade and investment. Collaboration will result in a win-win situation, in particular at the time when the global economy has yet to fully recover.
"Now that we have all these agreements and commitments, we must show the world that APEC will continue to play a significant role in global economy. I believe that all APEC economies will share responsibility to live up to these commitments," he added.

Technology Solutions one of our subsidiaries does these and I asked
the question to them and they responded that without knowing more
about your system that you want tested it is hard to give a
price. Evidently there are a lot of variables. They would be more
than willing to talk to you about this if you provide a number etc
that they can contact you at.

I recently received some pricing on a web application vulnerability
assessment from a large security service provider who shall remain
nameless. This assessment basically consisted of using web
application scanner, turning it loose, then performing some
verification on the issues reported. No actual exploitation of the
application would be done. The price was was fairly expensive. So
I have some questions for the everyone.
What seems to be the going rate for a:
- Web application vulnerability assessment?
- Network vulnerability assessment?
- Wireless vulnerability assessment?
I assume there is some disparity between the prices of a brand name
security service provider and a smaller security company. Does
anyone know what those differences in price would be?
I'm trying to get some idea of what to expect as I contact different
companies. I wouldn't mind knowing for any future private endeavors
as well. :)
Thanks for the help all.

Ten catastrophes: All-time worst tech industry executive decisions
Summary: IT, software and computer companies are certainly not without their share of poor executive decisions and mismanagement. While dozens of notable examples could have made our list, these were by far the top top 10 worst in the history of the technology industry, causing many billions of dollars of lost revenue or resulted in the downfall of entire companies.

Mention the name "Windows Vista" in most circles, you'll probably get a mixture of reactions. Groans, snickers, and utter disgust.Windows XP wasn't supposed to last as long as it did. As soon as XP shipped in 2001, work got under way for the next version, code-named "Longhorn." The feature list got bigger and more ambitious as time went on, and Longhorn was shown off with great fanfare at Microsoft's Professional Developers Conference in 2003.Those plans were tossed aside completely in August 2004, with what later became infamous as the "Longhorn reset." In September 2005, Windows boss Jim Allchin publicly acknowledged the do-over, acknowledging that Longhorn had been "crashing into the ground."The design goals of what was eventually named Windows Vista were admirable: improve Windows' security model, introduce widespread 64-bit technology into the desktop OS, improve networking performance, refine the user interface, and better integrate search capabilities. Unfortunately, the unwieldy and disorganized project took more than five years to deliver unsatisfactory results.Windows Vista was released to manufacturing in November 2006, with a consumer debut in January 2007. Vista got mostly negative reviews, thanks to significantly higher resource requirements, incompatibilities with some popular hardware and software programs, and a controversial security feature called User Account Control (UAC) that was derided as overly intrusive. Service Packs would later resolve many of Vista's issues, but its reputation as a slow, buggy failure was sealed.Eventually, the technologies that were created for Windows Vista were refined and re-engineered. Vista's successor, Windows 7, was released a little less than three years after Vista's introduction to much better reviews.Nobody knows how much the Vista debacle really cost Microsoft, but it damaged the company's reputation and almost certainly amounted to billions of dollars of stalled upgrades and a significant exodus of users to Apple's Mac platform.
In 1985, Apple Computer was in the midst of a technology transition. In the previous year, the company had just launched its first Macintosh computer, which had replaced the Apple ][ and Apple III line it had been selling successfully for the last several years.Founder Steve Jobs had recruited former Pepsi-Cola executive John Sculley to act as Apple's CEO, in order to help grow the company. While Jobs was considered to be a charismatic and dynamic employee at Apple and at the Macintosh division which was under his direct leadership, he was also erratic, difficult to work with and temperamental, and it was beginning to put a strain on his relationship with his team members as well as on the Board of Directors of the company.Facing a sales slump due to overwhelming competition from companies like IBM and Compaq that were selling PCs and clones, Jobs' relationship with Sculley deteriorated which resulted in his ouster from the company he and Steve Wozniak founded.The 11-year period that Apple continued on without Steve Jobs is universally considered to be a major low point for the company. Without Jobs' vision and guidance, innovation slowed and Apple underwent several leadership changes. Revenue and stock valuation plummeted, the company was on the verge of financial oblivion, and by the mid 1990's the company was in desperate need for a replacement to the aging Macintosh OS.In 1996, Apple purchased Steve Jobs' NeXT, which would serve as the foundation for what would become OS X and later on the iOS which powers the iPhone and iPad. Gil Amelio, the current CEO, was ousted in 1997 in a boardroom coup and Steve Jobs returned as Chairman and CEO.Jobs would guide the company into the release of the iMac, the iPod, OSX and and x86-based Macs, and then later the iPhone, iPad and Apple TV, ushering in a new golden age for Apple.
Once a prosperous, medium-sized and laid-back Northern California software company that produced successful and reliable vertical market UNIX operating systems for x86-based servers throughout the 1980s through the early 2000's, the Santa Cruz Operation (SCO) began its demise shortly after being acquired by Caldera, Inc., based out of Provo, Utah.Part of the Nay Noorda-backed family of companies known as the Canopy Group, the company re-named itself "The SCO Group" and soon began to find itself in a bit of an identity crisis. SCO Group's first incoming CEO and former CEO of Caldera Ransom Love wanted to merge Caldera and SCO's Linux and UNIX product lines, and create a best of breed OS.SCO had partnered with Intel, IBM and Sequent briefly during the mid-1990s on "Project Monterrey", an attempt to unify, merge and port the best aspects of the company's UNIXWare OS and IBM's AIX to the new Intel Itanium as well as IBM's POWER processor.With the rise in popularity of Linux and 64-bit x86 chips, interest in Itanium waned and the effort to market the completed IA-64 variant was scuttled.SCO's failure to market the IA-64 version of Monterey resulted in Ransom Love being pushed aside and succeeded by Darl Mcbride. With McBride at the helm of SCO, the company became entirely focused on litigation as opposed to product development.SCO not only sued IBM for alleged contributions of Monterey code to the Open Source Linux kernel, but also large customers, end-users and vendors of various Linux OSes, including Red Hat and Novell.This turned the company into a pariah not only among the legion of Open Source and Linux developers but SCO's own customers and the entire technology industry. The litigation debacle went on for years, chronicled in gory detail on sites such as Groklaw.SCO's sales of UNIX products went down the toilet, and was forced to lay off virtually all of its employees to focus entirely on its lawsuits.In 2007, SCO filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. In 2009, Darl Mcbride was fired. Early in 2011, UnXis Inc purchased SCO's remaining UNIX software assets.As of August 2001, SCO Group remained active only as a shell in order to continue its appeals processes on litigation against Novell regarding transfer of UNIX copyrights during its UNIXWare sale in 1995.This appeal found in favor of Novell (which is now a fully-owned subsidiary of Attachmate, Inc.) as exclusive holder of the UNIX copyrights on August 30, 2011 by the United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit.

Just a terrible performance by the Nets last night. Really bad shooting was the key to the whole thing led by their leaderi, Deron Williams. They couldn't throw it in the ocean and hit the water if they threw it from the side of the boat, but while it results in a loss for me, it's not entirely a bad thing. We'll talk more about that when these 2 teams reconvene in Chicago on Thursday, but I think the thing that really surprised me about the whole game was that it looked to me like the Nets were playing flat-footed for the entire game. The Bulls didn't appear to be doing anything different offensively. They're somewhat limited that way without Rose and having an injured Noah out there, but the Nets were reacting on defense instead of attacking the ball as they did in Game 1. And the action wasn't much better on the offensive end as the Nets just didn't control the paint as they should have been able to. I hope those weren't the adjustments we've heard so much about.
Hats off to King Felix. He finally got his 100th win in his 4th try at it. His offense didn't let him down, and they didn't waste his usual strong performance. And to El Gato's credit, he didn't relax when it came to getting some runs. He was all over that 'Stros lineup from the beginning, so good for him. At age 27, he's got he's hit the century mark in wins. He's been a durable and reliable starter throughout his career, so you wonder just how many he'll get by the time he's done. You also can't help but wonder how many he'd have if he would have been toiling for a better team. He's not worried though. After the contract extension he sogned in the offseason, he's going to be a very happy man for the rest of his life.
THE NBA (0-2 ATS/1-1 SU/0-2 TOTALS last night and 0-6/4-2/2-4 so far for the week)
EGAD! As evidenced by the numbers above, it's been a rough start to the week in The Association. Fortunately, I haven't had a lot invested in it so far.
BUTTA (0-1 last night and so far for the week as well)
KNICKS (-6 1/2, U185) 93, Celtics 84 - The Knicks had to battle back in Game 1, and I think that really surprised a lot of people that the Celts made it so hard on them. I see the same kind of game here tonight. The Knicks are the better team, but the play here is not about who wins. This is going to be another grinder of a game like we're used to seeing between these clubs, and that's why I'll be on the UNDER tonight.
1. HEAT (-14, U197) 110, Bucks 85 - The only way the Bucks stay in this game and this series is if they shoot their way into it. That's okay, and they're more than capable at any given point in time of hitting everything they throw up, but at some point, they're going to have to play defense.
2. NUGGETS (-8, O208) 111, Warriors 103 - This matchup gave us the best Game 1 of the whole bunch over the weekend, but the landscape is entirely differnt tonight. The Warriors have lost their 2nd best player for the duration, while the Nugs get Manimal back on the court tonight. You'll notice how my projection for this game lays right down on the number, and we've seen in the past how teams will rally when they lose one of their best players. But I think the loss of Lee, coupled with Faried coming back for Denver is going to be too much for the Warriors.
THE SHOW (1-1 last night and 2-3 so far for the week)
BUTTA (1-0 last night and 1-1 so far for the week)
You already know that I'm on the Twins in Game 1 of their doubleheader today, and so far so good. I think there might be another play out there, but for right now, I'm not willing to commit to it till I see how this game plays out as well as how things are looking with my hoops play tonight.
1. Dogers (Kershaw -140) over METS (NIESE) - This is about as low a price as you might even see with Kershaw, and that's probably due to the poor output of the Dodger offense. Kershaw wasn't sharp his last time out, so I think he's probably back on the beam tonight. He is 5-0 lifetime against the Mets with a 1.37 ERA, but the real issue here is whether or not the Dodgers will score enough runs to support him.
2. Brewers (Gallardo -125) over PADRES (RICHARD) - The Crew is red hot right now, and Gallardo was terrific his last time out. He's also 12-1 over the last 2 years when the team is coming off a win. Clayton Richard is coming off getting scratched over the weekend, ao this might be a good spot to back the Brewers.
3. RAYS (PRICE -195) over Yankees (Hughes) - David Price is another ace that wasn't particularly sharp his last time out. The Rays probably still should have won that game, but that's water under the bridge. Tampa is playinjg some good ball right now, and Price is 7-3 lifetime against the Yanks.
4. Rangers (Ogando -115) over ANGELS (VARGAS) - Again we have another situation where Ogando is coming off getting blown up his last time out after being next to unhittable to start the season. There's big trouble in Anaheim right now, and I think what this game boils down to is the fact that the Rangers look like the more mentally tough team. A bad bullpen will make a team look weak, and that's where the Halos are dealing with right now.
5. Marlins (Nolasco +115) over TWINS (PELFREY) - Originally, it was suppose to be Nolasco in Game 1 of the doubleheader, but the Fish decided to go with the kid, Jose Fernandez, instead. Either way, I think I'd prefer Miami in Game 2, even with all the struggles they've had so far this season, because Pelfrey is only 1-8 with a 5.20 ERA in his career against Miami.
ALL THAT GLITTERS (5-6 ATS/7-3 SU/4-7 TOTALS last night and 13-14/16-10/15-12 so far for the week)
1. ORIOLES (+1 1/2, U8) vs. Blue Jays
2. Athletics (+1 1/2, U8 1/2) at RED SOX *
3. Indians (+1 1/2, U8) at WHITE SOX
4. TIGERS (-1 1/2, O7 1/2) over Royals
5. ASTROS (+1 1/2, O7 1/2) vs. Mariners
6. ANGELS (+1 1/2, U8) vs. Rangers
7. RAYS (-1 1/2, O7) over Yankees
8. TWINS (-1 1/2, U7 1/2) over Marlins
9. REDS (-1 1/2, U7 1/2) over Cubs
10. ROCKIES (-1 1/2, U10) over Braves
11. METS (+1 1/2, O6) vs. Dodgers
12. PHILLIES (-1 1/2, U7) over Pirates
13. Brewers (-1 1/2, U7) over PADRES
14. GIANTS (-1 1/2, U6 1/2) over D-Backs
15. NATIONALS (+1 1/2, U7) vs. Cardinals
* - Once again today, I come up with a tie in the A's/RED SOX game today, and also be advised that not only will the Marlins and Twins be playing 2 today. The Braves and Rockies do as well in Denver.
That's it. Gotta run and try and nurse the Twinks through this 9th inning. Have a great rest of your day, and I'll see you again tomorrow.

Wawrinka insists he deserved to win Grand Slam
Stanislas Wawrinka has reportedly insisted that he deserved to win the Australian Open upsetting World No.1Rafael Nadal.
Wawrinka admitted that winning the Grand Slam title was a 'big surprise' after years in the shadow of fellow Swiss Roger Federer, whom he will pass in the ranking as he rises to World No. 3.
According to Sport24, the Swiss eighth seed was on top of Nadal from the off, eventually winning in four sets, but there will be question marks over the victory after the Spaniard was badly hampered by a back injury.
The last outsider to bring home the title in the era dominated by the "Big Four" of Nadal, Federer, Novak Djokovic and Andy Murray, Juan Martin del Potro at the 2009 US Open.
The 28-year old Swiss said that it was an amazing feeling, he has seen Federer winning so many Grand Slams in the past, and now it was his turn to win one.
Wawrinka further said that he would need time to realise what he did in these two weeks and even if Nadal was injured, he deserved that Grand Slam because he won against Djokovic, the number two, and against Nadal.

The U.K.'s opposition Labour Party said it can't commit to reversing Prime Minister David Cameron's defense-spending cuts, as it put aircraft carriers, unmanned drones and fighter planes at the heart of its strategy for 2015.
Supporters and foes of TransCanada Corp.'s Keystone XL pipeline are bracing for the release of an environmental analysis from the U.S. government that could determine the $5.4 billion project's fate.
The U.K. opposition Labour party is considering legislation to stop employers discriminating against military reservists because of unpredictable working patterns, its defense spokesman, Jim Murphy, will say today.
Genesis HealthCare System in southeast Ohio sold $295 million of municipal bonds in the biggest junk- rated hospital deal since 2011 as investor demand for extra yield shrinks the penalty on such borrowers by 50 percent.
InsideClimateNews.org -- One of the biggest unknowns in the unfolding Keystone XL debate is the role the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency might play.
Just when it looked like the Keystone XL pipeline cleared a key U.S. State Department hurdle, a Nebraska judge showed this week that obstacles remain.
"British politics is going to change, but we should not rush into it."

Broadcast Live On ABC Television
Sunday 25th November At 8.30 PM
Cate Blanchett, Killing
Heidi, Bryan Brown and Hugh Jackman are just some of the
stars celebrating the lives of Australia's unsung heroes
at the Peoplescape concert.
Doug Tremlett, Creative Director
of Peoplescape says: 'The concert draws its inspiration,
its power and emotion and its sense of joy and thanksgiving
from the stories of the thousands of people represented
in Peoplescape. That they are represented in Peoplescape
means they are deeply loved and admired, sometimes by a
single person, perhaps by a whole community, on occasion
by the nation.' He adds, 'It is these people and the qualities
they represent that we celebrate in The Peoplescape Concert.
While the celebrations in 2001 are about our achievements
as a nation over our first hundred years, at the end of
the day, or indeed year, it is the people we cherish. It's
the qualities these people exhibit that define us as a nation.'
Also appearing in the concert
are Slim Dusty, Michael Leunig, Invertigo, Mary Coustas
(Effie), Kevin Harrington, Richard Tognetti and the Australian
Chamber Orchestra, Eric Bogle, Deborah Cheetham, the Flying
Fruit Fly Circus, Todd McKenny, Slava and Leonard Grigoryan,
Hung Le, Dorinda Hafner, Maria Mercedes, Primary, Culture
Connect and The Sensitive New Age Cowboys.
Background To The
Final National Event For The Centenary Of Federation
then made life size, cutout figures to represent their
"hero" and now Canberra residents and visitors
to the national capital can view these figures which
form a massive outdoor art installation covering the
slopes of Parliament House and spilling down the lawns
of Federation Mall. Some of the figures are works
of art in themselves but many are simply moving personal
tributes to someone who has made a difference.
Australians from every
walk of life are included; from the local sports coach
to the town historian, from bushrangers to diggers,
community workers to entertainers, scientists to actors.
Unknown Australians stand next to national icons.
Every figure tells a story. In The Peoplescape you'll
find stories of compassion, excellence, caring, courage
and humour.
Every State and Territory
is well represented and nominations have come from
as far as Christmas Island and Australians overseas.

BILL WALTON; artist to artist
October 9 – December 5
Opening Reception October 9 from 5-7 PM
Philadelphia artist Bill Walton died in early 2010. As an artist, teacher and friend he left behind a dedicated group of fellow artists. This exhibit consists solely of his work that was given, traded, or, in some cases bequeathed, to those artists.
What Walton valued in making work and conversation was combining the known and the obvious to discover something new, or even more obvious but never seen before. Over the course of his career Walton became disenchanted with the commercial commodification of art. He felt that the curiosity, exploration, and discovery he valued in making art had become perverted by market pressure and he removed himself from that world to concentrate his relationships among other artists, craftspeople, and fishing pals. This show is his side of that conversation.
Bill Walton taught printmaking for many years at Moore College of Art. His work has been exhibited at The Philadelphia Museum of Art, Pennsylvania Academy of Art, The ICA, Phila., White Box Gallery, NYC, Margaret Thatcher Projects, NYC, Locks Gallery, Phila., Larry Becker Contemporary Art, Phila., and many others. His estate is represented by The Fleisher-Ollman Gallery, Phila. Bill Walton, designed by Walton and edited by Richard Torchia, was published by Arcadia University in 2006.
More information coming soon.
August 6 – September 28
Closing Reception September 25 from 6-8pm
Featuring the work of installation artist Jeremy Holmes from Ithaca, NY, this solo exhibition consist of a continuous, site-specific wood installation designed for the Leonard Pearlstein Gallery. Using five varieties of North American hardwoods, Holmes explores the contrasts between the abstract shapes of bent wood and the geometric rooms the piece inhabits. Holmes uses space in original and unexpected ways, filling voids in interiors that would otherwise go unnoticed and allowing the viewer to experience the work from within. His work pushes interactions between the viewer and site and evokes a new curiosity in a traditional material.

NFL Midseason Awards
11/7/12 in NFL | Matthew_Shovlin | 735 respect
The problem with picking a Bears player for DPOY is that there are so many incredible playmakers who contribute to the Bears' defense. Regardless, Tillman is having an incredible enough year to receive the award. Tillman is the leading tackler for the league's 2nd ranked scoring defense; a defense that has given up only two more touchdowns than they have scored themselves. Tillman has intercepted two passes this season, bringing both back for touchdowns. He also has six passes defended and an astounding seven forced fumbles on the season.
Close behind Tillman for DPOY honors is Houston Texans' defensive end JJ Watt. With a league-best 10.5 sacks and 10 batted passes, Watt probably causes more headaches for quarterbacks than anyone in the league. However, I have to say I'll take seven forced fumbles and two defensive touchdowns over 10.5 sacks any day of the week. Watt has also yet to force a turnover, while Tillman himself has as many or more turnovers than seven entire teams.
Honorable Mention: JJ Watt, Lance Briggs, Patrick Willis, DeMarcus Ware
Offensive Rookie of the Year: Robert Griffin III (QB, Washington Redskins)
I hope RG3 and Andrew Luck are used to being compared to one another by now, because their long careers of media-created competition with one another are just getting started. These players were the two hottest topics coming into the most recent NFL Draft, and they have completely lived up to expectations in their rookie seasons.
Robert Griffin has been absolutely outstanding, turning heads every Sunday, regardless of whether his team wins or loses. He's completed a very impressive 65.6% of his passes, while throwing eight touchdowns to only three interceptions.
Andrew Luck is a hot pick for OROY right now due to his historic performance against the Dolphins on Sunday. If Luck can keep that up, he could definitely make a run at the award, but here are some numbers to consider: Luck completes a very mediocre 56.5% of his passes, and his 10:8 touchdown to interception ratio is far from remarkable. Compared to RG3, Luck passes for much more yards per game, but when you factor in rushing yards, Luck is only ahead by 38.8. When factoring in rushing touchdowns, RG3's TD:INT ratio is 14:3, compared to Luck's 13:8.
I understand that Luck has led his team to an improbable 5-3 record (compared to RG3's 3-6), but OROY doesn't take wins into account as much as, let's say, the MVP award does. In addition, Luck has significantly better receiving options, simply due to the presence of Reggie Wayne. If you saw the Redskins' game against the Steelers, in which Redskin receivers must have dropped 10+ passes, you understand the lack of skill players that RG3 is working with. Finally, the Redskins have the 28th ranked defense, while the Colts' defense is ranked 18th.
Honorable Mention: Andrew Luck, Doug Martin, Alfred Morris, Ryan Tannehill

New Baron's Chocolate PB&J's with Grape Jelly & Awkward Mondays: Parallel Stalking…I mean, Parking
Junk Food Nation, something happens to me ALL THE TIME which is horribly awkward. I consider myself a good, no, GREAT, parallel parker (though a few friends of mine might have something to say about that.) And one of the most awkward moments I STILL HAVE on a consistent basis is pulling up next to a car in front of the empty space, in preparation of parallel parking…and you look over and there's someone sitting in that stupid car.
Correction: there is someone sitting in that car who is now turning to STARE AT YOU. STARE AT the weirdo (me) that has just pulled up close to their driver's side window. And they just sit there staring at you until they realize, as you're backing away, that all YOU really want to do is park in the damn space behind them. And yet many will continue to stare and actually turn to look back at you as you begin to park. WHAT?? LOOK AWAY, SIR.
I dunno how to make that situation LESS awkward. I mean, it's not THEIR fault – they're startled because it appears as if some stalker just pulled up to their window and is about to roll down the glass to ask for some Grey Poupon or some shit. And if you're male like me and that person happens to be female, they give you rather alarmed looks. Calm down, lady. I'm not going to rape you from my driver's seat.
And it's not MY fault – I HAVE to pull up this close, BECAUSE THAT'S THE SCIENCE OF GOOD PARALLEL PARKING. Trust me, I'd rather not get close to you eating your sub in the front seat of a Mustang (weirdo), but I have to, so leave me alone, ok?
That's another thing – once you see there's a person IN that car, you have to be extra careful not to tap any part along the way to the perfect parallel park lest you draw the ire of that person. Ugh. My perfect parallel parking prowess means I get to tap the cars in front and behind me at least three times each – that's why they're called bumpers, no? And SIR, YOU ARE RUINING MY FLOW.
Next time I am in this situation, and the person in the driver's seat turns to look at me quizzically, I'm gonna shift into neutral and just rev my engines really loud. Then slowly back into the space behind them. Hell, if I'm gonna feel this awkward, at least I can confuse them even more.
Today's junk food: New Baron's Chocolate PB&J's with Grape Jelly!
New Baron's Chocolate PB&J's with Grape Jelly was purchased at my local Walgreens, on sale for $1.50. It marks the first time I'd ever seen peanut butter AND jelly in a chocolate bar, and I wondered why it hadn't been done before! Seriously, this seems so simple – where's my Snickers Peanut Butter and Jelly candy bar? Potential untapped here, Mars Corp.
New Baron's Chocolate PB&J's with Grape Jelly is made by Baron's, a chocolate company who also makes a strawberry jelly version of this candy. Actually, these two versions appear to be the ONLY thing this company makes, unless I'm missing something.
New Baron's Chocolate PB&J's have been reviewed by Candy Blog and by Candy Gurus. Neither liked it very much. Not a good start, Baron's.
New Baron's Chocolate PB&J's with Grape Jelly is chock full of chemicals, but honestly, what candy isn't these days? Pretty low in calories, considering that each individually wrapped bar is less than 60 calories.
And here are the individually wrapped New Baron's Chocolate PB&J's with Grape Jelly bars! They look like sticks of Fruit Stripe Gum!
Unwrapped! Time to take a bite….hmmm. VERDICT: These New Baron's Chocolate PB&J's with Grape Jelly were ….good. Not great, but good. "OK" is a good word for it.
The Chocolate: Soft and sweet like a typical milk chocolate. Had a really melty feeling to it, very similar to the kind of chocolate you get with a Reese's cup – probably all the hydrogenated oil.
The Peanut Butter: Sweet like the kind of peanut butter you'd find in a Reese's cup. It mixed with the chocolate right away to give that really great creamy peanut butter and chocolate taste.
The Jelly: At first, sort of faint, but strong in flavor. Once your tongue hits a little of it, you definitely get a grape-y or berry taste – that sudden bite of sweetness. There wasn't a ton of jelly, however. Still, very sweet. High fructose corn syrup sweet.
The combo: Just as you'd expect. Not great, but good. I mean, its processed peanut butter and jelly inside of a chocolate bar! Not a bad treat.
Is it my new favorite chocolate bar in the world? No. Does it taste like a PB & J sandwich? I mean, not really. But Baron's had a flavor promise and executed it as best they could in candy form. I give it decent marks – if you like PB & J, you'll sort of like this.

OK, I'll bite…how do they go from "60 calories each" to 170 calories for 3 of them? Do they figure you'll end up with 10 calories worth of chocolate melted on your hand? 10 calories worth of jelly dribbled on your white shirt?
And why on earth is the serving size 3 of them? I thought they were each granola bar sized but the whole package is like Hershey bar sized?
I find these nearly as confusing as if someone pulled up next to me and asked for some s**t.
You added the "8 individually wrapped bars 60 calories each" on the front?
"Pardon me, would you have any Grey Poupon?"
Sounds an interesting bar!..Good that theyre less than 60kcals!
Hilarious about the parallel parking as well..i feel your awkwardness!
Both me (44) & my nephew (13) tried this cuz we love pb&j and chocolate so figured it may be a genious combo like Elvis's fried banana peanut butter sandwiches… we agree that we're glad we tried it but will never crave it because yes, it is mediocre.
Russell Stover used to make Peanut Butter and Jelly cups— just like this, but in chocolate "cups"… I was so sad when they discontinued them, but it looks like this company carried on the tradition. I haven't had any yet, but plan on getting some within the next day or two! Hope they're as good!

Went to Mood today… So overwhelmed by the choices I couldn't even make a decision. I plan to return tomorrow to pick up some lovely printed silks from this wall! And just look at the velvet!
Went to Mood Fabrics Friday morning! So cool; I racked up!


text: So you love your classic truck, except for the fact that its just too hard to drive with the manual steering. Relax. For owners of 60-66 Chevy and GMC pickups, theres a solution. Rez Engineering has developed a kit that allows you to retrofit a power steering box to your truck. All it takes is a power box from a 68 to 84 ½-ton two-wheel-drive truck, a pump, and the brackets and instructions from Rez Engineering. Oh, it will take you a little time and effort, too, but youd better believe the results are worth it. Lets check it out.

Q: I just finished reading the Mar. 2013 HOT ROD to the Rescue about converting the small-block Chevy in Jimmy Burton's 1950 panel truck from V-belts to a factory serpentine-drive setup. I have a 1971 Chevelle with a ZZ4 350. I would like to change the drivebelts to serpentine drive, but I don't have the cash to buy the GM performance kit. What donor vehicle would you recommend?
A: The Chevrolet Performance kits are based on a '91–'92 third-gen F-body (Camaro/Firebird) production drive system because this configuration's low-mounted accessories offer the most hood clearance. Other late-'80s-through-early-'90s F-car or fullsize B-car (Impala/Caprice and clones) Gen I serpentine setups are similar and should work well, too—just be sure to grab everything from the same donor car. Yet another alternative is a pickup truck, circa '90–'95. On the pickups, the accessories mount slightly higher compared with the passenger-car design, but experience has shown it still clears a Chevelle's hood. The advantage is that pickup trucks are much more plentiful than rear-drive V8 passenger cars, so a complete truck system should be easier to find in the wrecking yard.

I am gathering parts to swap in a power-steering setup into my current manual-steer '78 Dodge D100 ½-ton pickup with a 318 engine and A727 automatic trans. Can I expect the stock manual-steer pitman arm to work with no probs with the power deal?
Paul Johnson
Fincastle, VA
No, you'll need a '72–'93 two-wheel-drive Dodge truck power-steering–style pitman arm. This is a non-wear part, so its not serviced by typical aftermarket suspension-parts suppliers. However, it's still available new from Chrysler-Dodge-Jeep dealers. Order PN 3492214. If your local dealer has no clue, call Glendora Dodge.

Ever since I was a kid, I loved the sound of a cammed-up engine. A good lope at idle just makes a performance car sound right. I have asked many of the best minds I know this question: What is really going on inside a performance engine that makes it "lope" at idle?
Every answer I get generally insults my intelligence. I already know the typical answers: "excessive overlap" or "low manifold vacuum" or "lots of cam duration" or "exhaust reversion contaminating the intake charge." Those explanations still leave me scratching my head a bit.
The answer that best pacified me for years is: "A high-performance camshaft's erratic intake manifold vacuum signal to the carb causes erratic fuel distribution at low engine speeds." But that all got thrown out the window the first time that I heard an electronically fuel-injected vehicle with a large cam.
It's back to the drawing board on that theory! Being that a fuel-injected engine doesn't rely on the vacuum signal to draw fuel from the [carburetor] venturis to deliver fuel, by that line of thinking, a fuel-injected vehicle ought not to lope with a healthy amount of overlap as a carbureted vehicle could—yet clearly they do.
So, Marlan, if you choose to take this challenge, I am sure the hot rodding world is waiting to hear. Get down to the nitty-gritty physics (if necessary). Dig deep to explain, in-depth, what is going on making that glorious triplet-triplet-triplet sound we all know and love!
Jeremy Mertz
Bismarck, ND
Whew! Jeremy, did you teach my high-school physics class? Seriously, this is a great question, and you were actually on the right track. Just don't let fuel-injection muddy the waters.
According to Comp Cams' Valvetrain Engineering Group Leader Billy Godbold, what we call "cam lope" is actually low-order engine misfire: "The lope is misfire. It's actually a miss!" What's going on is this: Big cams have lots of overlap with an early-opening intake valve; in other words, during the transition between the exhaust closing/intake opening (exhaust/induction) cycle, on a big cam both the intake and exhaust valves are open simultaneously for an extended time period. Lots of overlap produces random reflective waves back up into the intake manifold, where they bounce around in the plenum. The waves vary per cycle and per cylinder. This not only disturbs the carburetor's vacuum signal but more significantly also causes uneven air/fuel charge distribution in the intake manifold runners, in turn causing random cylinders to go lean or rich. The result is erratic firing or "half-firing." And that sets up even more waves, reversion, and back-pulses. Get the picture?
Remember, the key here is the air/fuel charge as seen in the cylinder, not necessarily any carburetor venturi vacuum signal. That's why big-cam EFI engines still lope. Yes, EFI always delivers the same amount of fuel per cylinder. But the air side of the equation is still affected by the reflected waves in the intake manifold—so the amount of air going into the cylinder on an EFI motor still varies, which means cylinder pressures will vary, more reflective waves will occur, and you'll still have a lopey engine.
Another way to look at this is that one can deliberately misprogram an EFI engine to make it lope, even if it didn't previously. "You can make it play 'Name That Tune,'" jokes Godbold.
And if you had an individual-runner EFI system that doesn't draw air through a common plenum or throttle-body (aka stack-style injection), plus a high-end controller capable of individual cylinder programming, Godbold says in theory much of the lope could in fact be smoothed out.

'US drone strike' in Pakistan kills 10 suspected militants
A US drone strike on a compound in Pakistan's north-western tribal region has killed 10 suspected militants, Pakistani officials have said.
At least six people were injured in the attack, which took place in the Orakzai tribal region, near the Afghan border.
It was the second attack in as many days. On Wednesday, a strike in North Waziristan killed five insurgents.
Officials said all those killed in Thursday's strike were fighters led by militant commander Hafiz Gul Bahadur.
Bahadur is an ally of the al-Qaeda-linked Haqqani network, blamed by the US for a string of high-profile attacks in Afghanistan.Imran Khan rally
The area of the latest drone attack is a known Taliban and al-Qaeda stronghold.
Drones in Pakistan
- Recent US report highlighted "terror" felt by civilians in north-west Pakistan, where drones target areas such North and South Waziristan
- Hundreds of low-level militant commanders and substantial minority of civilians killed
- Exact figures difficult to compile because independent media and researchers denied access to area by authorities
- Bureau of Investigative Journalism estimates 2,570-3,337 people killed in drone strikes, of which 474-884 were civilians
- Living Under Drones report says top commanders account for estimated 2% of victims
The attacks, by unmanned US aircraft, are deeply unpopular in Pakistan, which says they violate its sovereignty.
However, the government of Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari has done nothing to stop them and many Pakistanis believe this amounts to tacit consent.
One local official, speaking to Agence France-Presse, said that a total of four missiles had been fired on the compound in Orakzai.
Most of the dead and injured in the attack were Afghans, the official said.
The scale of civilian casualties has been difficult to assess because independent media and researchers are denied access by the authorities to the tribal areas.
Cricketer-turned-politician Imran Khan staged a rally last weekend against drone attacks.
Like many Pakistanis, he argues that attacks from unmanned aircraft kill large numbers of civilians and foster support for militants.
But US officials insist strikes by the unmanned aircraft rarely claim civilian casualties and are an effective weapon against the Taliban and al-Qaeda.
US President Barack Obama has insisted that the drone strategy is "kept on a very tight leash" and that without the attacks, the US would have had to resort to "more intrusive military action".

Knowing every breath you take
Mirabai Bush, New York Times: In 1972, I was a 30-year-old American traveling in India, with the smell of incense in my hair and mantras repeating in my ears. Back then, if you had told me that I would someday be training employees of corporate America to apply contemplative practices to help them become more successful, I would have said you'd been standing too long in India's hot noonday sun.
Yet not long ago, I was standing in front of employees at Google in Mountain View, Calif. They were dutifully following my instructions to feel the sensations of their breath as it passed in …

"Mindfulness has to do with paying attention to what's happening in the moment without judgment," said Bush. "Sometimes people think being mindful means being slow — it's not about being slow, it's about being slow enough that you can …

One question though - does IP.Board hash the raw password or the version with entities? E.g. if my password is "<>", what exactly does IP.Board use as the md5 hash? Is it md5('<>') or md5('<>')?
This would make things quite a bit more complicated, since I'd have to do some otherwise unnecessary postprocessing of the string before hashing it...

Also, you may wish to either utilize IPB's built-in brute force prevention (see admin/sources/loginauth/login_core.php, starting around line 287 -- you might be able to make use of it without duplicating code by instantiating the internal login class and calling authenticate() on that) or restrict access to your script so that only the IP of your other application can access it. This way people cannot brute force your user's passwords, which is probably a Good Thing™.
EDIT: Ninja'd by Ryan Ashbrook, but I'll keep this here anyway since it includes some information I feel is important and not covered above.

If you're looking to authenticate a user against a remote system, then it would be worth looking into SSO, provided the two systems are on the same domain.
Otherwise - a new Login Method or utilizing IPS Connect would be your best bet. I would recommend, however, posting in the customization forums if you need assistance with your custom code.

Analog Magazine (science/sciencefiction) conducts an annual poll called The Analytical Laboratory.We had an opportunity to have a bit of this here today as well.Voip.MS and Vitelity both had significant outages this morning.Now, consider:Voip.MS is very frequently discussed here, and there are lots of reviews posted on the "GBU".By contrast, Vitelity is almost never discussed here, and there are so few reviews that it does not even have a listing on the "GBU".That's why I am very surprised by what happened today! It was the total OPPOSITE.The post about Voip.MS has 5 replies and 159 unique views.»[Other] VOIP.ms service down at the momentThe post about Vitelity has 59 replies and 1446 unique views.»Vitelity completely down?------------------------------------------------------This is not a scientific poll. Nevertheless, I am astounded that the Vitelity issue generated about 10-fold more interest than the Voip.MS issue.
My guess is the reason is that VoIP.ms did not have a systemwide outage. If they did, (and I certainly hope that doesn't happen) no doubt the thread would be even longer than the Vitelity one.Obviously, VoIP.ms gets DIDs from a variety of sources. For example, my DIDs from Allstream were working just fine.m.--Recommended ATA Settings | e164 - make your DID accessible via SIPBroker! | Tips for Reliable Internet Faxing

That's because voip.ms outage didn't affect all of their clients. They mention some "US carrier". Things were certainly normal on my side this morning.
Point taken, for the Voip.MS gremlin, although I would have expected even non-affected customers to click (view) on such a headline.---------------------------------------------------------But for VITELITY, if there are so many people interested, how come there are only 3 reviews posted for it over the last 365 days?!»User reviews - Vitelity VOIP
CWU is not on gbu also The stable a provider works, the lesser reviews. No magic.--»www.callwithus.com
No magic. People are not influenced to post or update a review if everything is OK. But if something goes wrong, then angry people are here... Edit: I expect to see Vitelity on gbu next week again, with a low rating. Unfortunately gbu rating is very far from a provider's value.--»www.callwithus.com
I know at least a few who are quite "influenced". Even if they're not actually using one's service... they come regularly and leave their "featured" creations on streets just to show that they're still around and to make sure their sh*t is still afloat on top. IM very HO.

Just glad I'm not seeing Future-Nine having problems at the same time. I'm spread out between them for my critical DID, and Vitelity, VOIP.MS, Whistlephone and Google Voice for outgoing. Since I'm a simple one line business (computer repair) I don't have demanding needs, so I don't invest in redundancy with the local telco.
I think there's several issues to take into account. Does vitelity actually have a larger customer base? Are voip.ms customers more tech savvy and therefor more understanding of the nature of voip and outages? Are vitelity customers more tech savvy and expectant of a more in depth explanation of outages?Personally I expect voip to be less reliable than pots. Not by much though. I'm also an IT professional and want any of my providers to give me the full story on any outage. One of the reasons I do my webhosting with pair.com is that they are up front on outages. I appreciate that my provider isn't afraid to document an outage that lasted less than 5 minutes.Today I'm also a voip.ms customer. I didn't notice any service disruption. When I log into my account there is one listed. I like that.
