Much influenced by its 4 terroirs oscillating from pink granite to calcareous clay substrates, Brouilly is clothed in a deep dark intense ruby robe, with aromas and flavours that are more fruity than floral, with forthright red fruit, plum and a few mineral notes faithfully reproducing the Gamay bouquet. With its supple tannins, the Cru crafted by 400 winemakers gives finesse and joy. The singularity of this Cru is that none of the communes in the appellation bear its name. The most widespread and southernmost of the Beaujolais Crus gets its name from the hill Mont Brouilly where Brulius, a lieutenant in the Roman army, had his seat.
Made by 122 winemakers, shared between Chénas in the Rhône department and La Chapelle-de-Guinchay in the Saône-et-Loire department, Chénas has a ruby robe with garnet tints, floral aromas of peony and rose nuanced with spicy and woody notes as the wine ages. A generous, well-built wine to cellar, it can be beautifully tender on the palate. On the rough slopes that were home to oak trees in yes-teryear, the vines of the appellation nourish the refined and thoroughbred rarest of the Beaujolais Crus. Legend has it that this wine is at the origin of the name of the grape variety: one day a winemaker came here to store his wine in a barrel, dipped in his cup and tasted and tasted again until he sung a full scale (gamme in French).
Around 80 winemakers nurture its ruby robe and its aromas, where a floral bouquet is at the fore with violet, iris, lily of the valley and peony. Its flavours are those of the red fruit that the Gamay grape expresses so well. Chiroubles more-ish by nature, it slides easily down the throat. Tender, fruity and lip-smacking, the soils its vines grow in are remarkably homogenous, poor and shallow. Backing up on to the Monts du Beaujolais, this appellation is the highest up at between 250 and 450 metres above sea level. Because temperatures in Chiroubles are lower than in other areas of the Beaujolais region, the harvest here is later, around a week after the banns have been called for the Beaujolais vineyard.
Entrusted to 85 vinegrowers, Côte de Brouilly displays a crimson robe, aromas of fresh grape and iris and is delicate and nervy as long as it is allowed to age for its elegance on the palate to develop. The product of diorite and schist, the soil on the flanks of Mont Brouilly alternates between blue stone and marbled dark green stone called "corne verte". On the steep slopes, the Crus has its most original ambassador in Château des Ravatys, that has been owned by the Pasteur Institute since 1920.
Grown by 150 professionals, Fleurie gets its intense crimson robe, its floral and fruity aromas of iris, violet, rose, red fruit, and vine peach from the pink granite soil the vines grow in. The monthfeel combines elegance, finesse and a fleshy and silky body. Evolving to notes of spice with the years, this Cru makes the most of the specific geography of the appellation area, backing up on to the a chain of peaks including Avenas, Durbize and Les Labourons. The appellation owes its name to a Roman legionary and not to any old bouquet of flowers. It has 13 different named vineyards or climats' giving characteristic wines; they include La Madone, Grille-Midi, La Chapelle des Bois and Champagne.
Over sixty vinegrowers tend Juliénas vines, this area is without a doubt at the origin of the Beaujolais region's viticultural vocation. With the greatest variety in terrain of all the Beaujolais vinegrowing area, this Cru dons a deep intense ruby robe, with aromas of strawberry, violet, cinnamon, red currant, and peony, releasing fleshy, well-built flavours that are discreetly spicy and a good length in the mouth. Growing at 230 to 430 metres above sea-level the vines are shared between soils of granitic origin in the west and sedimentary terrain in the east. It is worth leaving the bottles to age for 2 to 3 years for the nuances of vanilla and spice to fill out.
In reference to the village of Villié-Morgon that nestles in the heart of the Beaujolais Cru area, Morgon is fashioned by 250 winemakers. It is clothed in deep garnet and gives off ripe stone fruit aromas including cherry, peach, apricot and plum. Well-built, this rich powerful and fleshy wine has the biggest vineyard after Brouilly and expresses all the characteristics of its terroir. Overlooked by Mont du Py, the plots of "roche pourrie" (rotten rock) made up of very ancient schist and eruptive rock are shared between 6 very distinct named vineyards or climats', the most famous of which is Côte du Py. This wine to lay down is suited to 5 to 10 years' cellaring, Morgon is maybe the Cru that best expresses its terroir. So much so that the winemakers here have invented a special word to describe what it does on reaching it peak; Morgon is said to "morgonne". A verb that has been adopted by many wine specialists.
300 men and women hold the key to this, the most prestigious, Beaujolais Cru. The Moulin-à-Vent appellation area spreads over just 2 communes; Romanèche-Thorins in the Saône-et-Loire department and Chénas in the Rhône department. Set around a robe that goes from deep ruby to dark garnet, this wine gives off floral and fruity aromas of violet and cherry in its first years moving on to iris, spice and ripe fruit up to overblown rose, truffle, musk and even venison. Well-built and complex, Moulin-à-Vent is a wine to lay down par excellence, up to 10 years depending on the vintage. Nourished by crumbly pink granitic arena also called gore, crossed through with seams of manganese that are, without a doubt, behind the wine's characteristics, Moulin-à-Vent is an intense, tannic wine. It is said for this Cru, like for many of the other robust Crus, that with age it tends to "pinote", coming close in personality to that of its Burgundian neighbours with the very cherry aromas that are specific to the Pinot.
Fruit of the labour of 120 winemakers, Régnié is a fragrant, rounded wine that is enjoyably long on the palate. Its robe varies between cherry and ruby. The aromas of raspberry, red currant, sloe, blackberry and blackcurrant are clothed in spicy and mineral notes. A Subtle balance of red fruit that is fresh and structured with refined tannins, Régnié comes from southeast facing vines that are planted 350 metres above sea-level on pink granite that is rich in mineral elements. Enjoy it from early to up to 5 years after the harvest.
Cherished by barely 50 winemakers, from its granitic and clay schist soils Saint-Amour gives, two types of wine with sparkling ruby red robes, fruity and floral flavours. Depending on how the winemaker chooses to vinify his wine the Cru will be tender with very characteristic and complex red fruit, peony and peach aromas resulting from short maceration. The best time to enjoy them is within 12 to 15 months, or Powerful, fattier, full-bodied and stamped with kirsch, spice and mignonette aromas. They will reach their peak around 4 to 5 years after the harvest depending on the vintage. Rubbing shoulders with the terroirs of Saint-Véran, the cradle of Saint-Amour is one of the smallest Beaujolais appellations, much looked forward to for Saint Valentine's Day.
1 250 winemakers give life to Beaujolais-Villages, the first appellation in France to have used the term "villages". In 38 communes in the Rhône and Saône-et-Loire departments and 3 geographical zones with marked specificities, these fruity, fleshy wines reflect the characteristics of the terroirs they came from. The fruit of granitic and sandy soils, Beaujolais-Villages have an intense robe with cherry to garnet tints and aromas of red fruit with blackcurrant and strawberry at the fore. Though a third of production is sold as Beaujolais-Villages Nouveau, the appellation also stands up very well to its rank of cellaring wine.
Accredited in September 1937, the regional appellation of Beaujolais is the most emblematic and the most widespread. It makes up half of the entire regions annual wine production. The area circles Le Bois d'Oingt and then lengthens down to the south towards Villefranche and along a ribbon of land that verges the Saône River up to La Chapelle-de-Guinchay, this is the only Beaujolais appellation that may use the "Guyot" pruning style along palisades, with the single or double canes pruned to a total of 6 to 8 eyes. Making the most of a legislative decision made in the 50s allowing the first anticipated release of wine onto the market, the Beaujolais range is rich in Nouveau wines. Beaujolais Nouveau is made using short vatting and a subtle dosage in the different stages of vinification. The result is the fresh, lip-smacking, aromatic and fruity characteristics that are behind the wines success. After Nouveau, Beaujolais waits for spring to give off all its fruity flavours and freshness making this the ideal wine to celebrate the return of bright sunny days with barbecues, picnics and al fresco meals.
The "Beaujolais blanc" regional appellation came into being in 1937, set at the extreme northern end of the winemaking area, on the borders with the Mâconnais winemaking area and to the southwest of Villefranche, in the triangle that has Liergues, Le Bois d'Oingt and Bully at its points. Made using the Chardonnay grape and not the Gamy, Beaujolais Blanc and Beaujolais-Villages Blanc are rare wines crafted by nearly 200 winemakers. They are vinified in a totally different way to the red wine: the grapes are pressed on arrival at the cellar. Fermentation lasts around a fortnight. These wines are rare pearls set in the string of gemstones that are the red wines. They give off subtle aromas of fresh fruit and blossom. In the tradition of this great grape, they combine substance and freshness, a successful balance between roundness and finesse within which there may also be a zest of complexity and sometimes a touch of vanilla if the wine has been aged in barrels.
Beaujolais and Beaujolais-Villages rosé : mellow emotions
Beaujolais and Beaujolais-Villages rosé is made using the Gamay Noir à Jus Blanc grape that is emblematic of
the Beaujolais region. As its name suggests the skin is black while the juice is white or clear. Beaujolais-Villages Rosé
is made by pressing the grapes direct, after they may or may not have macerated on the skins for a short period. This
is where its diaphanous colour that varies in shade from pale rose petal to salmon pink comes from. Fresh and thirst-
quenching, Beaujolais and Beaujolais-Villages rosé rolls over your tongue without ever being aggressive, forsaking
acidity for tenderness. Lip-smacking and suave, it makes a perfect partner to fun simple summer dishes.

The joint venture partners on Tuesday signed a preliminary agreement with an international consortium to build the $9 billion Nghi Son refinery after securing part of around $5 billion in bank loans and agreeing to final terms with the Vietnamese government, an Idemitsu official said.
By MARI IWATA
TOKYO -- Japanese refiner Idemitsu Kosan Co. and its
partners have formally decided to build Vietnam's long-delayed
second oil refinery, which would help meet the country's
growing demand for oil products and come amid a refining boom in the region.
The joint venture partners on Tuesday signed a preliminary
agreement with an international consortium to build the $9
billion Nghi Son refinery after securing part of
around $5 billion in bank loans and agreeing to final terms
with the Vietnamese government, Idemitsu Chief Financial
Officer Kenichi Matsui told reporters Tuesday.
The 200,000-bpd Nghi Son refinery, to be built 180 kilometers
south of Hanoi, will process Kuwaiti crude supplied exclusively
by Kuwait Petroleum International.
Construction is expected to start in
the second quarter of this year and commercial operations are
expected to begin in the second quarter of 2017, Mr. Matsui
Idemitsu and Kuwait Petroleum each hold a 35.1% stake in the
project. State-owned Vietnam Oil and
Gas Group, or PetroVietnam, and Mitsui Chemicals own 25.1% and
4.7%, respectively.
The project has been delayed several
times -- the final investment decision was originally scheduled
for the summer of 2010 -- as the partners struggled to obtain
bank financing without underwriting by the Vietnamese
government. Talks progressed rapidly, however, after the
government agreed in August to underwrite some of the project.
PetroVietnam will take all products from the Nghi Son joint
venture at Asian market prices, Mr. Matsui said. The refinery's
output is intended to meet the needs of Vietnam's domestic
market, but PetroVietnam has the right to export any excess
products to avoid low operating rates, he said.
Vietnam's oil demand currently totals around 350,000 bpd and
is expected to grow around 8% annually in the coming years,
Idemitsu said in a statement.
Nguyen Tien Dung, PetroVietnam's vice CEO, said Tuesday that
the Nghi Son refinery would help ensure Vietnam's energy
security. "When operational, the Nghi Son refinery and Dung
Quat refinery will meet over 70% of the country's demand for
oil products," he said.
The 150,000 bpd Dung Quat refinery is now Vietnam's only refinery.
PetroVietnam CEO Do Van Hau said the partners will
officially sign the engineering, procurement and construction contract with the
chosen consortium on Jan. 27 in Hanoi.
The consortium comprises JGC Corp., Chiyoda Corp., Technip,
GS E&C and SK E&C.
Mr. Matsui said the partners had secured loans from a number
of Japanese banks, including Japan Bank for International
Cooperation and the Bank of Tokyo Mitsubishi UFJ.

I think that convergence under any norm does not guarantee a desired behavior (continuity or differentiability) for the limit function. So my question is,
Is there a norm under which any sequence of functions with all of its elements having the same behavior (continuity and differentiability), if converge to some function $f$ then it is guaranteed that the function $f$ is having exactly the same behavior as of the functions of the sequence ?
PS : Here all the functions map real line to real line, all defined on the same open interval of real line.

THE SKINNY ON WEIGHT LOSS PROGRAMSPosted in Anticipating A Crisis, Crisis Communication Failures, Crisis Management, Jenny Craig ranked first, poor reaction to bad press, Slim Fast ranked high, THE RHODELL GROUP, weight loss programs, Weight Watchers reaction to Consumer Reports on May 11th, 2011 by mnayor
Whoa! The news is in. According to Consumer Reports, Jenny Craig is the winner. Based on factors such as weight loss and drop-out rates, Jenny left its competitors in the dust. Slim Fast came in second and Weight Watchers third.
Talk about being blind-sided and needing a crisis plan. This is certainly a classic case in point.
Crisis planning is sometimes looked upon by companies as seriously as a fire drill – and by employees as akin to root canal work. We don't have the time! I could be doing something that affects the bottom line, not this stuff! The excuses go on and on. But brainstorming potential crises is the starting point and competitive reviews ranks high on the list.
So it was surprising to read the reaction of Weight Watchers. There is rarely room for sour grapes in responses to less-than-favorable news. Word-smithing is the ability to get your messages and facts across clearly without sounding like you are whining. Weight Watchers failed.
Instead of exclaiming that it was disappointed that Consumer Reports left certain key points of the JAMA (Journal of the American Medical Association) study "were left unsaid" the Company's statement should have begun with what it believes its program does well: WW advocates and teaches how to live in the real world – people learn to make smart choices etc. It should then have stressed how proud it is of its long history, its success in changing the lives of countless individuals. It should have stated that everyone should recognize that most people cannot afford the luxury of having food prepared for them daily and its program is a much more realistic approach to weight loss. Finally it should have underscored that clinical data on its new PointsPlus Program will be published shortly, that it looks forward to the conclusions of the data and are confident that this study, along with over 60 other WW studies will once again show the extraordinary effectiveness and success of the Weight Watchers program for millions of people.
The Consumers Report story was an opportunity for WW to blow its horn. The media wanted to hear what it had to say. Instead they just blew it. Slim-Fast, which actually came in second with its snack bars and shakes, capitalized on the story. It was "thrilled to once again be ranked among the top U.S. weight loss plans evaluated by Consumer Reports". It then went on to describe its 3-2-1 Plan and invited people to check them out on Facebook and website. Slim-Fast believes in itself.

Installing Sencha Touch SDK on Windows
I went through the instructions on installing Sencha Touch SDK here: http://www.sencha.com/forum/showthre...ools-v2-beta-3
but this document is related to MAC. So far I was not able to follow the steps because some of them are unclear. The Architect documentation is very, very poor, and seems like it is not even finished.
When I got to the part related to MAC simulation it is even more messy. I was not able to find any info on how to install/setup iPhone emulator, how to setup iPhone SDK, or whatever is needed to test/deploy an iPhone App from PC. Basically the whole setup for Architect is a big disappointment. The documentation doesn't even say if (when installing an Architect) I should install (or not) other componencts (like ExtJS and Sencha Touch separately).
I wonder if some body could put a better outline (for Windows oriented users) on how to:
- setup Atchitect (path to SDK, path to the project, or whatever to get it to work)
- setup SDK
- depoly an Android App
- deploy an iPhone App
All the above for Windows users please.
At this moment I cannot even run an example App, I get 404 Page Not found error.
I'm using XAMPP and I extracted SDK into this folder:
Extracted example App into this one:
but when I try to PREVIEW in this folder:
I get an error 404
I don't even know if the Architect creates a deployment directory for me or I need to do it manually,... so many small steps are skipped, and for beginners it is a nightmare!
would appreciate any help
8 Oct 2012 8:40 AM #2
Setting up on windows, linux or mac is the same thing. The only thing that changes is how you handle the directories, since every OS has its own way to handle it.
If you are using windows, you will not be able to package your app to iphone. You need MacOS to do this. This is not a Sencha limitation, this is a limitation from Apple. You also need to be an apple developer to deploy/package the app to this platform. The developer program costs $99 dolars/year.
I know there are emulators for windows, but they do not work the same way as the native apple ios emulator.
I highly recommend you to at least implement a hello world program with iOS and Android, so you can understand how the deployment and packaging of these two platforms work. This is not necessary to work with Sencha Touch, but it helps you to understand a lot of things.
Remember you need a webserver to run sencha examples. If you are using xampp, make sure you start the server before trying to run the examples.
Sencha Architect does not create index.html, the file it creates is app.html, so you should try access: http://localhost/sencha/TouchSimpleE...nview/app.html
Hope this can help you to get started.Sencha/Java evangelist

thank you for your time, but it doesn't answer the question...
I still do not know where do I need to expand Sencha SDK
I use XAMPP for over 3 years so I know what and how to use it, however I'm not sure is SDK should go under XAMPP directory or in C:\Programs OR Somewehere Else.
9 Oct 2012 3:28 AM #4
You can put in any directory you want.
Put putting it under xampp directory make things easier, because you can access the docs offline.
I have 2 videos, they are in Portuguese, but you can follow the steps:

I almost didn't post a picture tonight because the dish looks so horrid. Hey, you can't win 'em all. The taste and texture, however, is spot on. For some reason I was thinking about Hamburger Helper, and so I decided to make a dish inspired by that weird white hand mascot (a cousin of the Pillsbury Dough Boy, perhaps?). I essentially revised my creamy mac and cheeze and added tempeh burger.
- 1/3 cup water
- 2 cups soy milk
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 cup nutritional yeast
- 1 1/2 cups tofu (does not have to be silken)
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1/2 tsp tumeric
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 2 tbsp miso (something mellow)

1. Cook macaroni, as per directions, until al dente.
2. While macaroni is cooking, make the burger. Simmer tempeh in water for 10 mins to help reduce the tempeh's bitterness. Cool, then break into small chunks or grate.
5. Drain macaroni and return to pot over medium heat. Add tempeh and mix well. Add sauce and bring to bubbling. Cook, stirring constantly, until sauce thickens and reduces a bit (about 5 mins). Serve.

It's easy for me to imagine that if we brake the front wheel then there is a chance that I'll flip.
On the other hand if I brake the back wheel, there is no way it'll happen no matter how fast I brake.
But whether I brake the front wheel or back wheel, the force I've added is a backward force at the bottom of the wheel.
So why the different outcome?

how to Export a document contain tables name, columns names and column description from SQL Server 2008?
I've created an open source project to create MS SQL Server database documentation.
The simplest solution is to buy something like Red-Gate's SQL Doc. There are a few people who have written scripts that you can find for free.
I used the following recently as the first step of a full DB audit. I know there are additional fields in COLUMNS and TABLES.

6 Attempts at Damage Control That Caused Way Bigger Problems
#3. Barbra Streisand Fucks With the Wrong Geologist
Kenneth Adelman was a man with a mission: To take thousands upon thousands of photos of the California coastline to document coastal erosion.
Hey, not all missions can be of the impossible variety.
All in all, over 12,000 photos were taken, one of which contained a grainy image of Barbra Streisand's home in the top corner. Now obviously this was a massive invasion of Streisand's privacy, as any one of the zero people actually interested in sifting through 12,000 photos of coastline erosion could potentially see an aerial photo of one corner of her swimming pool.
Via Californiacoastline.org
If you squint, you can see her doing a 720 jackknife off of the high dive.
So she did what any reasonable person would do when they didn't like how a photo turned out: She sued the photographer and the website hosting the image for millions of dollars.
The Backlash:
Streisand's lawyers sent several threatening cease-and-desist letters to the site, which were immediately leaked online. News outlets jumped on the story and in the process sent half a million people to the site in a single month, making it the second most viewed website in coastal erosion history (just behind swallowmysediment.com).
It's actually more surreal than sexy.
The lawsuit eventually fell through, although not before ensuring that millions of people stared in confusion at an innocuous photo of Barbra Streisand's backyard. The offending site is still active today, complete with the original photo and a new page containing links to every news story about the spectacle, transcripts of everything Streisand's lawyers sent and a note basically telling her to go fuck herself. Not to mention as a final insult, she was court ordered to pay their legal fees.
Via Californiacoastline.org
Which she afforded by shaking the change out of her couch.
It's like the old saying goes: Never, ever, ever fuck with a geologist.
#2. Trafigura Pulls a Giggs
Some people actually care when you dump toxic chemicals into the ocean. Mostly aquamen and little mermaids, sure, but even they can whip up some effective resistance with the help of an old friend: incompetency.
"Hey, fish are cooked in oil. We're just cutting out a step."
The oil-trading company Trafigura was accused of illegally dumping waste into the ocean, and they promptly filed a super injunction banning any mention of the story (hey, we're starting to think those things might not work). An unintended side effect, however, was that the injunction effectively stopped some reporting on Parliament itself, something that had never actually happened before. Intentional or not, Trafigura were gagging the political news, and that in itself was a way bigger story than any possible environmental infraction.
Which then prompted 600,000 variations of this picture to be used by every news organization in existence.
The Backlash:
People reported the story anyway, somehow managing to completely ignore the "super" in "super injunction" (maybe they had a chunk of rare, deadly injunctionite) and leaked all the documents involved. When the story hit Twitter, Trafigura and the gagging order trended worldwide. The sheer weight of the campaign forced Trafigura to to drop the injunction entirely, allowing the details of their toxic dumping to be reported on after all ... but only after first creating a worldwide scandal about it.
#1. The King Kong Remake
Via io9.com
We know what you're thinking: You're thinking this is going to be about the time Peter Jackson had everyone who called his 2005 version of King Kong "insufferable" or "like eight hours long, dude, seriously" thrown into the slave mines of Old Zealand. But no, this is about that other King Kong remake. The one by Dino De Laurentiis, the producer responsible for Flash Gordon, Dune, Blue Velvet, Othello and Racism and Robots.
Haven't seen that last one? Oh man, have we got some spoilers for you:
For instance, that's not a real ape!
De Laurentiis had his fuckup son Federico act as producer for King Kong, and the process got all the way to the illustrious "posting audition notices" phase before he screwed the whole thing into the ground. De Laurentiis thought that the best way to render a gigantic ape was to take a step backward from the 1933 version and just straight up put a dude in an ape costume, and that's fine. Some costume work is actually better than even the most advanced special effects, so long as it's handled carefully and subtly and -- oh yeah -- doesn't contain the words "Wanted: Tall Black Man to Play Ape."
Via JohnCarlini.com
That's Federico on the left, probably saying something about how happy he is to be part of the "master race."
Well, hold on, it's not like he said it's because black men are "closer to [their] primate roots."
He did? Oh, shit. This is going to be one hell of a ...
The Backlash:
Having accidentally (?) insulted an entire race and created a national scandal, De Laurentiis decided that the best way out of his problem would be to distract the world with the biggest, shiniest thing he could think of: He declared that if he couldn't have a racist caricature, he would settle for a giant robot Kong instead.
"With, like, a hilarious Chinese accent!"
Th-those are the only two options you see, De Laurentiis? Set race relations back a hundred years, or gargantuan steel monkey machine?
After weeks of malfunctions and several million dollars -- most of which was just to cover the framework with black horse hair (he bought all of it ... in the world) -- Mechakong was used in only a few shots, for a total screen time of no more than a few seconds. And Dino had to go back to a guy in a suit for most of the effects after all.
But don't worry; it was a white guy in there.
Ironically, he was only 17 inches tall.
Oh, so Laurentiis wouldn't employ a black man after all? Psh, racist.

Why is הושיעה Mileel (penultimately stressed) whereas הצליחה is Milra (ultimately stressed) in Psalms 118:25?

Apparently, it's due to a misinterpretation of the m'sora. By the rules of grammar, both should be mil'el, but, according to the m'sora, both are mil'ra. The m'sora was misinterpreted to mean that hoshia is mil'el while hatzlicha is mil'ra, and that's the way people read it now. Source: an old
As to why the m'sora specifies an ungrammatical reading on this pasuk, I don't know, but such a circumstance is not uncommon.
EDIT: See this picture of the verse as written in the Aleppo Codex which indicates the mil'ra emphasis on each of the two words. (Note also the dagesh in both instances of the word na, which is also discussed in the listserv message linked to above.)
I've heard once that "Hatzliha na" means "you have success" and "Hatzliha na" means "make us to have success".

WEST LIBERTY - Isiah Moody ran for a career-high 129 yards 84 of them in the fourth quarter while Justin Black had a 75-yard interception return for a touchdown and Jesse Rose caught a 4-yard TD pass from L.D. Crow with less than 7 minutes remaining to lift West Liberty to a 23-22 victory against UNC-Pembroke at Russek Field on Saturday.
The Hilltoppers (6-5) wrapped up their seventh winning season in eight years under head coach Roger Waialae and knocked the visiting Braves (6-4), ranked No. 8 in Super Region 2, out of the NCAA Division II playoff chase in the process.
Waialae credited his 16 seniors for their determination to end the final chapter of their West Liberty careers with an exclamation point instead of a period.
Article Photos
"They stepped up today," Waialae said. "It really meant something to our seniors to go from one win a year ago to six wins this season. They helped get this program moving in the right direction and I'm extremely happy for them.
"You can replace talent through your recruiting but leadership is something that has to develop. I hope some of our returning kids learn from their example and grow into the type of leaders we'll need going forward into next year."
The Hilltoppers used big plays in all three phases of the game to secure the upset.
Black's interception return in the final minute of the first half West Liberty's sixth interception return TD of the season turned a 12-3 deficit into a much more manageable 12-10 count and sent the Hilltoppers into the second half with a little momentum.
West Liberty's special teams came up big after UNC-Pembroke had taken a 22-10 lead on an 85-yard bomb from quarterback Luke Charles to speedy wideout Te'vell Williams with just over 5 minutes left in the third quarter.
The Hilltoppers were forced to punt on the ensuing possession but the Braves' return man bobbled the kick and WLU's Marquis Bradley came out of the pile with the football at the UNC-Pembroke 4. Moody scored on the next play, cutting the deficit to 22-17 heading into the fourth quarter.
The biggest play on offense came late in the fourth quarter as West Liberty was trying to protect its one-point lead.
Junior safety Marco Ricchetti had snuffed out a potential go-ahead drive for the Braves by picking off a Charles pass in the end zone with 3:45 remaining and that's when Moody stepped into the spotlight
Facing third-and-seven from the 23, Moody took a sprint draw handoff from Crow and found daylight down the left sideline for a 52-yard run West Liberty's longest run from scrimmage all season.
Pembroke never got the ball back as the Hilltoppers were able to run out the clock.
"We had run that play twice earlier in the game but Isiah had missed the hole both times," Waialae said. "Pembroke were playing the run so aggressively that we thought we could catch them with the misdirection if we ran it again and this time he hit the hole."
Crow played most of the way at quarterback in his final game at West Liberty with freshman Dylan Lagarde coming in for a couple of series. They combined to complete 16-of-28 passes for 121 yards and a touchdown with senior WR Brandon Schroeder's 9 catches for 82 yards accounting for the bulk of that yardage.
Charles completed 19-of-35 passes for 281 yards and 2 TDs for UNC-Pembroke while Williams had a big day with 7 catches for 162 yards and 2 scores. Tailback Elliott Powell ran for 97 yards on 23 carries.
The Braves finished with 358 yards of total offense to just 212 for the Hilltoppers but turnovers were the difference in the game as West Liberty didn't turn the ball over once all day and scored 14 points off Pembroke's three turnovers.
"This was a big win for the seniors to go out on," Waialae said, "but it's also a big win for the ones who are coming back. We were the only conference team to beat Shepherd this year and they're probably going to be in the playoffs next week and this team we beat today had a shot at getting into the playoffs.
"Now our returning players know that they're capable of beating anybody they play and they can get excited about putting in the off-season work in the classroom as well as the weight room that you have to have in order to be successful. It gives us a great head start on next season."

text: So I read the Farseer Trilogy a while back, but didn't ever start the Liveship Traders or the Tawny Man trilogies. Just a few days ago I saw that her newer book "Dragon Keepers" is available free as an ebook. (no idea why). My question is, do you think I should go back and read the Liveship and Tawny Man trilogies, or does it not really matter? Doesn't seem like any of the characters overlap, just that it is a different story set in the same world, so I am thinking that it doesn't really matter, but was wondering if somebody who read all of them could comment on it. Thanks.

Tough Place to Fill Job Openings: U.S. Senate
Both political parties are encountering a surprising problem as they prepare for next year's battle to control the U.S. Senate: Some of their top choices are turning down invitations to run for seats in a body with a reputation that has been tarnished by bickering and gridlock.
In states as disparate as Iowa, Michigan, Georgia and Nebraska, men and women considered top-tier candidates are declining to jump into races.
In Iowa, for example, the state's lieutenant governor, agriculture secretary, secretary of state and two prominent congressmen all declined to seek the Republican nomination for a seat in a body that was once considered the pinnacle of a political career.
"As we would get together, we would say, 'Can you believe we are even thinking of not doing this?' " said Bill Northey, the agriculture secretary. But, he said, "we all had things we would have to give up to do it."
Late last week, Rep. Mike Rogers (R., Mich.), a sought-after potential Senate candidate, said he wouldn't run for the seat being vacated by the retirement of Democrat Carl Levin.
Potential candidates have always made career decisions based on personal and professional considerations. But these days, a recurring concern is that Congress is held in such low public esteem, and serving there has lost some of its luster.
"At the federal level, it's so partisan, it's dysfunctional," said Kim Reynolds, Iowa's lieutenant governor, who declined to run for the seat being vacated by Democrat Tom Harkin.
The Senate's chronic stalemate seems particularly distasteful to politicians who cast themselves as driven by pragmatic concerns more than ideology.
"When you are a governor, every day you can get things done," said Republican Gov. Dave Heineman of Nebraska, who declined to run for an open Senate seat that was widely viewed as his for the asking. "But you look at the U.S. Senate, you don't get the sense that people are willing to work together to do what's right for the country."
It isn't just Republicans who are taking a pass. Former Rep. Stephanie Herseth Sandlin (D., S.D.) undercut her party's hopes for competing in her GOP-leaning state when she decided recently not to run. Democratic Rep. John Barrow of Georgia rejected entreaties to run for an open Senate seat in his state.
The recruiting disappointments complicate the 2014 battle for control of the Senate. Democrats have 52 seats plus two allied independents, while Republicans control 46 seats, meaning the GOP will need to pick up at least five to win a majority. In many of the states that are considered likely to be competitive, one party or the other has yet to see a serious candidate step onto the field.
At this point in 2011, the battle lines were more clearly drawn. Nine Senate races had been identified as tossups by the nonpartisan Cook Political Report, and in five of them, the eventual candidates for both parties already were in place. Now, in the three races that the Cook report calls tossups—in Montana, Iowa and West Virginia—at least one party has yet to attract a strong candidate.
Beyond those are a set of states crucial to the GOP's potential for regaining a Senate majority—including Virginia, Michigan, Minnesota and Colorado—where Republicans don't yet have what some in the party believe to be top-tier prospects.
Democrats are empty-handed in West Virginia—a state they are at risk of losing with the retirement of Democrat Jay Rockefeller. They also are waiting for sought-after candidates to jump into races in Kentucky and Montana.
The parade of no-go candidates doesn't mean the supply of Senate hopefuls is drying up entirely. In Louisiana, credible Republicans including U.S. Rep. Bill Cassidy are lining up to run against Democratic Sen. Mary Landrieu. In Georgia, a crowded field of Republicans is running, and Democrats expect the eventual announcement of Michelle Nunn, daughter of former Sen. Sam Nunn, as a candidate. In New Jersey's special election to be held in October, Democrats including Newark Mayor Cory Booker and Rep. Frank Pallone have jumped into the race, and several Republicans are considering running even though the GOP isn't favored to win.
Officials with the Democratic and Republican Senate campaign committees say they aren't concerned about people now declining to run because it remains early in the election cycle.
"There are still an enormous number of people who want to serve," said Guy Cecil, executive director of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee.
Brad Dayspring, a spokesman for the National Republican Senatorial Committee, said that strong, lesser-known candidates often come forward after a high-profile recruit takes a pass. "There is always another card in the deck," he said.
Before deciding not to run for the Senate, Mr. Heineman said he talked to Sen. Mike Johanns (R., Neb.), whom he had succeeded as Nebraska governor.
"He's been a mayor, a governor and a cabinet secretary—those are positions where you are expected to perform every day," said Mr. Heineman. "In the Senate, you don't know what you are going to do every day. You come in, and at 4 p.m. they tell you, 'We're going to vote in one hour.' That part is dysfunctional."
In Michigan, state and national GOP leaders had urged Mr. Rogers to run for the Senate. But as chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, Mr. Rogers's responsibilities have burgeoned as controversies erupted over government surveillance and U.S. foreign policy. He decided his position was hard to trade for a back bench in the Senate.
"For me, the significance and depth of the impact I can make on my constituents' behalf far outweighs the perceived importance of any title I might hold," Mr. Rogers said in an email Friday announcing his decision to supporters.
In Iowa, Democrats have the candidate that many party leaders wanted in Rep. Bruce Braley. GOP leaders are facing a tougher situation.
They were particularly eager for Rep. Tom Latham to run, but he opted to stay in the House, where he is an appropriations subcommittee chairman and confidant of House Speaker John Boehner (R., Ohio).
Ms. Reynolds, the Iowa lieutenant governor, said that with grandchildren and grown children in her home state, she was wary of spending so much time in Washington. Still, she traveled to the capital in mid-March to meet with party officials who were eager for her to run. She was welcomed into the weekly lunch meeting of Senate Republicans, and she visited privately with first-term Sen. Kelly Ayotte (R., N.H.), who shared advice about juggling the demands of travel and family.
But after she returned home, Ms. Reynolds concluded that she could accomplish more by staying put in Iowa.

Corrections & Amplifications
Democrats are seeking candidates to join Senate races in Kentucky and Montana. An earlier version of this article incorrectly referred to those races as being for open seats. Montana is an open seat; Kentucky is not. Additionally, appointed incumbent Sen. William Cowan (D., Mass.) isn't running in the special election on June 25 for the remainder of the unexpired term of former Sen. John Kerry.

Architecture student works co-op in London for world-famous architect
It wasn't the close proximity to Westminster Abbey or Big Ben that Alia Zayani, MARC '12, liked most about living and working in London, England—it was the opportunity to spend her co-op working at an architecture firm with people who have rich and diverse backgrounds.
Alia Zayani, Master in Architecture, '12
Co-op Employer: Zaha Hadid Architects
Co-op Position: Architecture Intern
Hometown: Manama, Bahrain
Expert Example
The firm's namesake Zaha Hadid, winner of the prestigious Pritzker Architecture Prize in 2004 and renowned for her theoretical and academic work, has long served as an inspiration for Zayani as a strong and successful woman in the architecture world. She has always admired Hadid and even focused a few projects and presentations at Wentworth on her work. "I never imagined that I would work at her firm, but the co-op program at Wentworth provided me with a great opportunity to apply."
Educational Environment
Zayani was able to gain hands-on experience perfecting architecture design programs and model-making skills, but she also learned how architects work. Her exposure to an international office with 300 employees and projects in 44 countries around the world taught her more than just collaboration and time management. "Being part of this international architecture firm was an incredible experience that helped me understand the issues of designing in a global context." It also helped her think about her own path. "I gained knowledge about how a large and international firm operates and how I should work in response to that. Now when I'm back in my architecture studios, I feel I bring a new depth to my studies." And when she graduates, she hopes that she can make an impact on international architecture through a leadership role at a multi-cultural firm.

Suppose $X$ is a pdf over $[0,m]$ and $Y$ is a binary experiment on $X$ such that $P(Y=1|X)$ is continuous, and we have that $\mathbb{E}[X|Y=1] = \mu_y$ and $\mathbb{E}[X] < \mu_y$. Is it always the case that if $\mathbb{E}[X|X>k] = \mu_y$, $\mathbb{E}[X|X\le k] \le \mathbb{E}[X|Y=0]$? This seems intuitive, but is turning out to be deceptively difficult (for me) to prove.
Any ideas for how to prove this simple result, or intuition/counter examples explaining why it is not true, would be very helpful!

After 16 Days, a Cry From the Ruins: 'Sir, Please Help Me!'
Seamstress Is Pulled Out After 16 Days
DHAKA, Bangladesh—When the walls crumbled around her into mountains of broken concrete and twisted steel, Reshma Akter Begum fell and fell and fell.
Where one second she had been on the third floor, she now found herself in a basement prayer room that would prove her sanctuary and her salvation.
Over the next 16 days and seven hours in the often sweltering, pitch-black room, three other people she had worked with in the eight-story factory building died one by one.
The dry snacks and bottled water she scavenged from their backpacks dwindled, she told rescuers. She forced a broken pipe through a crack in the ceiling for ventilation.
She could sometimes hear rescue workers outside, but her desperate attempts to make enough noise to attract their attention failed. "I kept banging whatever I could with my legs, but no one could hear me," she told Bangladeshi TV from her hospital bed.
On Friday, the death toll in one of the worst industrial accidents ever rose past 1,000. It had been two days since she had run out of food and water. She heard bulldozers above and started banging a pipe against the concrete. This time, someone heard.
Carried out on a stretcher in a rescue broadcast live on national television, Ms. Begum, a seamstress in her 20s and mother of a 5-year-old boy, was rushed to the hospital. Doctors said she was dehydrated but otherwise had no major injuries from being buried alive—one of the longest periods anyone has survived such an ordeal.
"We'd given up hope," Ayesha Begum, who identified herself as Reshma's sister, said in an interview at the hospital. "God has brought her back for the sake of her little son."
Ayesha said she and Reshma's aunt had been waiting outside the Rana Plaza, the clothes-making complex that collapsed, for two weeks, desperately praying that she'd be found alive.
Reshma came from the northern district of Dinajpur to the capital here four years ago to work in a garment factory so as to become more independent, her sister said. She said Reshma recently had separated from her husband and was working in the New Wave Bottoms factory.
The company is part of a group that counts Benetton SpA of Italy and Loblaw Cos. LBLCF 3.55 % as customers.
The owners of the factory are now in jail, although no one has yet been formally charged. Attempts to reach them for comment in recent days have been unsuccessful.
The crowds at the site had thinned in the past week. The most recent survivor had been found just four days after the April 24 collapse, but was killed by a fire set off inadvertently by rescuers who were trying to cut through to free her.
There have been complaints from victims' families over the pace of the rescue operations at the building, which housed five garment factories. Right after the disaster, the Bangladesh government turned down foreign offers of help, including from Britain and the U.N. Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, saying the country could handle the job itself.
Some relatives of those missing, angered by the lack of heavy equipment, had clashed with police at the site. Later, the army, which now is coordinating efforts, moved in with bulldozers and other machinery, prompting criticism that they were moving too quickly and possibly missing potential survivors.
Maj. Gen. Hasan Suhrawardy, who is leading the operation, said the pace would now slow again, since Ms. Begum's survival had raised hopes, however slight, that other survivors could be in the wreckage.
On Friday evening, families clutching photos of missing loved ones were once again thronging the area hoping to see their relatives brought out alive.
"God is merciful," said Afsar Ali, who said he was looking for his daughter. "We still have hope."
Ms. Begum told her rescuers that inside the Muslim prayer room where she landed, there was enough room to stand and move around, even though the ceiling had caved in.
Many times she heard voices, she told her rescuers, but her attempts to attract attention had failed.
On Friday, her luck changed.
"I heard the sound and rushed toward the spot," Abdur Razzaq, an army sergeant who was involved in the rescue, said in an interview. "I knelt down and heard a faint voice. 'Sir, please help me!' she cried."
As she was lifted from the rubble, crowds that had gathered broke into cheers of "God is great!" Rescue workers wiped away tears.
"It's a miraculous event," Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina said after visiting Ms. Begum in the hospital and congratulating the rescue teams.
Ms. Begum had been trapped in a space originally around 30 feet long and 15 feet wide, according to rescue workers, during one of the hottest times of the year, with outside temperatures reaching 95 degrees and 80% humidity.
Her hair and face were covered in dirt as she was carried out on a stretcher, her bright pink dupatta, or scarf, wrapped demurely over her neck and chest in the traditional Bangladeshi Muslim manner.
Her scalp showed where she had apparently lost big clumps of hair, which experts said could have been stress-related.
Bulldozers stopped plowing the debris for a few hours after Ms. Begum was discovered, then gingerly resumed operations under flashlights.
Briefing reporters at the site, Gen. Suhrawardy said: "Reshma is totally OK. She worked hard to keep herself alive. That is a very strong woman."
The entire tragedy has shocked Bangladesh and the world, putting pressure on the government and foreign brands to improve safety conditions in the country's 5,000 factories.
Bangladesh is one of the world's largest producers of garments, supplying major U.S. and European retailers. The industry produces some of the world's cheapest clothes, paying workers monthly wages as low as $40—a quarter those of China's.
The government this week has begun an inspection of the country's factories. On Wednesday, the government forced 18 factories to shut while they carried out safety improvements, including three owned by the country's largest exporter of garments.
There have been few instances of people surviving longer than 10 days after disasters like earthquakes, according to academic studies. In 2010, after the Haiti earthquake, a teenage girl was rescued 15 days after the disaster.
The United Nations, which coordinates disaster relief, normally calls off search and rescue operations after a week or so and shifts to tending to survivors.
The death toll at Rana Plaza has jumped by about 100 each day for the past week, as salvage workers combed through the ground floor and basement levels. On Friday, it rose to 1,050.

The US president said the controversial pipeline should be approved only if it doesn't "exacerbate" carbon pollution, as he unveiled a sweeping new plan to tackle climate change.
By TENNILLE TRACY
WASHINGTON -- President Barack Obama said Tuesday the
controversial Keystone XL pipeline should be approved only if
it doesn't "exacerbate" carbon pollution, as he unveiled a
sweeping new plan to tackle climate change.
In a closely watched speech at Georgetown University, Mr.
Obama also said he would direct the Environmental Protection Agency to
create carbon standards for both new and
existing power plants, one of the largest sources of
greenhouse-gas emissions in the US.
"The planet is warming, and human activity is contributing
to it," Mr. Obama said. He continued that "the question now is
whether we will have the courage to act before it's too
On Keystone, Mr. Obama said
the pipeline's climate impact would be critical to determining
if it goes forward, but it wasn't immediately clear whether Mr.
Obama's statement makes it more or less likely the pipeline
will be approved.
Environmental groups say building the pipeline -- which
stretches from Canada to US oil refineries on the Gulf Coast --
will lead to higher greenhouse-gas emissions by driving full
development of oil sands in Canada. Oil sands produce more
greenhouse gases than regular crude during extraction.
Mr. Obama called climate change a pressing issue that
"demands our attention now."
The announcement on power plants was immediately embraced by
environmental groups, which have
pressed the Obama administration to regulate coal-fired power
plants that are already in operation, some of which are decades
The EPA proposed a rule in 2012 to reduce carbon-dioxide emissions from new power plants that
virtually eliminated the possibility that new coal-fired plants
would be built. The EPA hasn't yet finalized that rule, and
some in the power sector believe the agency will have to make
significant changes to the rule before doing so.
New rules from the EPA to address existing power plants will
serve as a key component of Mr. Obama's climate-change plan but
are likely to face both legal and political challenges.
Republicans argue that the Clean Air Act wasn't designed to
regulate carbon dioxide, but rather other harmful
In 2009, the EPA determined that greenhouse gases were
harmful to human health and the environment, a finding that now
serves as the bedrock for future action on addressing carbon-dioxide emissions.
Mr. Obama said critics of his plan may warn of lost jobs and
economic damages. He said these were "tired excuses for

When a carbon material [coal, natural gas, petroleum etc.] is combusted in power plant or car, carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide are formed – Chemistry 101. As the price of natural gas has dropped to between $2-4/MMBTU electric utilities have switched from coal to natural gas from their energy generation resulting in CO2 emission reduction this year. The proposed regulations on GHG control will force electric utilities to not build new coal-fired power plants since Carbon Capture and Sequestration would increase capital cost by at least 30% and this technology has not been commercially demonstrated i.e. Future Gen II is not operating. The USA will become more dependent on Natural Gas; hopefully we will not see a return to 2008 $14/MMBTU prices.The oil sands transported by XL pipeline would result in refined petrochemical products i.e. petroleum – contributing to CO automobile emissions. Please consider President's Obama's statement, that the he would approve XL Pipeline "only if this project does not significantly exacerbate the problem of carbon pollution". In my opinion, his statement is disingenuous since Chemistry 101 tells us that the end-product of the pipeline contents will generate CO.Richard W. Goodwin West Palm Beach FL

In a move to alleviate fears of the H1N1 vaccine, Minister of Health Dr. Abdullah Al-Rabeeah and his eight-year-old daughter Hana were the first to receive the H1N1 flu shots at a press conference in Riyadh. "I have taken the adjuvant vaccine to tell them that even adjuvant vaccine is safe and I gave it to my daughter in public because we've been studying this for the last few months," the health minister said. "We're confident that it is similar to seasonal flu vaccine and we feel that it is safe."

WEIRTON - The Bridgeport Lady Bulldogs outplayed Madonna in all phases of the basketball game Thursday night, especially in the second half, topping the Lady Blue Dons 56-28 at the Bill Barrett Gymnasium.
In remaining unbeaten in four outings, the Bulldogs limited Madonna (1-1) to just seven points in the second half.
The young Lady Dons stayed with Bridgeport in the first half, going to the halftime locker room down only 24-21. However, they were outscored 32-7 in the second half, scoring just one point in the fourth quarter.

ROUGH NIGHT — Madonna's Becca Holt leads a fast break during Thursday's home game with Bridgeport, won by the Bulldogs, 56-28. Trailing the play are Madonna's Katie Lammers and Bridgeport's Maclaine Murad.
-- Mike Mathison
"The worst thing that happened to us tonight was halftime," said veteran Blue Don coach Don Ogden. "We played a very good team tonight. The credit is theirs. Being a young team sometimes we're going to play well and others we'll make a lot of mistakes and a lot of those mistakes were caused by a very good Bridgeport defense."
Ogden's team, which played well in the opener last Tuesday beating Bishop Donahue, committed 31 turnovers and was out rebounded 39-21.
"Madonna has a quality program," said victorious coach, Rob Zitzelsberger, who has been at the helm of the Lady Bulldogs for the past three years. "Madonna had a powerhouse team with that group of girls they had for four years and I was on the other side of scores like this with them. They're young, but they hung in against us in the first half."
The Blue Dons were down 16-8 after the first quarter, but with freshman Monica Bragg and sophomore Aubrey Platek each scoring four points, they clawed their way back to within one point. That was when sophomore Rachael Grubbs sent a jumper whizzing through the net with 2:33 left in the half to make the score 22-21.
With Madonna in a tight 1-2-2 zone defense, Zitzelsberger had his team hold onto the ball and work the clock down to 11 seconds where talented freshman Caitlyn Kroll found nothing but net on a 12-foot jumper to give the Lady Bulldogs the three-point halftime lead.
"We just told our team at halftime to relax," said Zitzelsberger. "I think holding the ball right before the half gave them a little bit of confidence. I didn't want Madonna to have the lead at the half."
The Lady Blue Dons came out of the locker room with freshman Becca Holt swishing a 10-foot jumper in the lane to get it back to a one-point deficit.
However, junior forward Maclaine Murad ignited an 18-4 run that gave her team a comfortable 42-27 lead heading into the final period.
"It surprised me that we had such a margin in rebounding because they have a tall team," Ziztelsberger continued as he looked at his stat sheet. "Higgey (Brittany Higgenbotham) did a good job inside. She had eight rebounds and Murad had 10."
Kroll, who tickled the twine with three long-range bombs from three-point land, led all scorers with 22 points. Murad backed her up with 12 points and Higgenbotham, one of only two seniors on the team, finished with 10.
Meanwhile Rachael Grubbs got Madonna scoring honors with seven points, while Bragg, who had the only three-pointer for the Dons, and Platek each scored six points.
"Now we have to lick our wounds and get back to work," Ogden explained. "We'll see how we respond. It will be a challenge for us. We'll go back to the drawing board, but the unfortunate thing is we play Bridgeport again in about a week, and we have a couple of tough opponents before that."
The Lady Bulldogs continue on the road, playing their next game at River Monday night. After two games on the home floor, the Blue Dons travel across the Ohio River to play Toronto in the first road game next Monday.

Newtown, Connecticut
THE PRESIDENT: Thank you. (Applause.) Thank you, Governor. To all the families, first responders, to the community of Newtown, clergy, guests — Scripture tells us: "…do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away…inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. For we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, an eternal house in heaven, not built by human hands."
We gather here in memory of twenty beautiful children and six remarkable adults. They lost their lives in a school that could have been any school; in a quiet town full of good and decent people that could be any town in America. Continue Reading

Probably the oldest overall is something like wrestling, but of the eastern arts, what would be the oldest that people still practice?
As long as there have been people, there has been wrestling. Nearly every culture has some form of it used for contests internal and external to the group. When we talk about old martial arts, we are talking about wrestling.
In Egypt, the fifteenth tomb of Beni Hassan has a large wall depicting wrestling techniques. At this point we're talking about roughly the 19th to 20th century BCE.
We have similar evidence of wrestling in older tombs such as Petah Hotep (aka Ptahhotep). It is specifically an ancestor of Kirkpinar, Turkish oil wrestling:
In China specifically, there is some evidence that something related to (but probably very different from) modern shuai jiao wrestling called jǐao dǐ (角抵, horn butting) was used in 2697 BCE.
Note, however, that defining "still practice" (as well as "Eastern") is very difficult. People still wrestle using almost certainly the same or very similar techniques as those in ancient China, Nubia, Egypt and Iran. But it is very difficult to establish an unbroken line of teaching the same practice going back even a few hundred years. If that is what one is looking for, the often informal and omnipresent art of wrestling might not satisfy you.
An interesting question, and very difficult to answer. The reason is that, especially among far eastern arts, there were many oral traditions, and poor written documentation... Many arts claim ages that documentation does not really support.
From what we know, codified systems of boxing (striking) and wrestling (grappling) were depicted in the murals of one of the tombs of Beni Hasan in Egypt that are dated to about the 20th century BC. We see similar notations in Gilgamesh epics dating back to about 18th century, moving eastward. The next we really know about from the East is Sun Tzu describing the Art of War in the 6th century BC.
It is likely then that some form of folk wrestling from the Middle East, the Jacket wrestling of the Chinese... It's likely something in this range is the missing link of martial arts, and, while different or evolved, is the oldest extant martial art from the east.
Edit: For the sake of completeness, I feel I should mention this, despite it being difficult to phrase for me... There is a collection of arts (martial, healing, etc.) that combined is claimed to be some 2700 years old (originally written about 700 BC) written in a set of scrolls claiming to be the history of Japan. These scrolls are called Amatsu Tatara Hibumi. Supposedly the martial traditions were added around 500 BC after repelling Malay invaders from Japan...
Personally, I find the whole thing entirely suspect, though numerous Japanese koryu arts do claim ties to the scrolls, though only a few claim to be "masters" – generally, the claim is that XYZ set of techniques ties back to these scrolls (For example, a portion of Kukishin-ryu is claimed to derive from Amatsu Tatara Bumon).
This is about the Bodhidharma Shaolin Kung Fu myth. There is no legitimate evidence for Kung Fu or Shaolin Kung Fu coming from India or Kalari being the oldest martial art or first martial art in the world and wrestling(for example in cave paintings in Mongolia), grappling, stone chinese swords were there in prehistoric times.
Bodhidhadharma taught meditation in China but there is no evidence for him teaching martial arts or self defense. The attribution of Shaolin's martial arts to Bodhidharma has been discounted by several 20th century martial arts historians, first by Tang Hao on the grounds that the Yì Jīn Jīng is a forgery.Huiguang and Sengchou were involved with martial arts before they became two of the very first Shaolin monks, reported as practicing Kung Fu before the arrival of Bodhidharma.
Tang's findings are further supported by the work of Matsuda Takatomo in his book "An Illustrated History of Chinese Martial Arts," published in 1979.Therefore there is no legitimate evidence of Bodhidharma's connection to Chinese Kung Fu or Shaolin Kung Fu.Many historians have proven that there is no evidence that Bodhidharma created Shaolin Kung Fu like , Matsuda Ryuchi, Paul Pelliot, Bernard Faure ,Stanley Henning and Micheal Splessbach, Tenjiku Naranokaku, Tang Ho and Matsuda Takatomo. Matsuda Ryuchi could attest to the existence of the Yijin Jing only as far back as 1827.
In the course of his research, Matsuda Ryuchi found no mention of—let alone attribution to—Bodhidharma in any of the numerous texts written about the Shaolin martial arts before the 19th century.
The Yijin Jing appears to be the source for two other popular Qigong forms which are also attributed to various authors. Both the Eighteen Luohan Hands (also associated with Shaolin) and the Eight Pieces of Brocade (Baduanjin) forms seem like abridged versions of Yijinjing sets. The Baduanjin is sometimes attributed to Yue Fei. Of the many versions of all 3 of the above, some also contain forms from the older Wuqin, or Five Animal Frolics of Hua Tuo.There is lots of info on the internet if you do a google search for Bodhidharma myth or Yijin Jing forgery. Some sources : Wikipedia, A Venerated Forgery: The Daoist Origins of Shaolin's Famous Yijin ,Kenpukan , blackbelt magazine, Kung Fu magazine.
The earliest document I'm aware of is Ch'i Chi-Kuang's "Essentials of the Classic of Pugilism". He studied 16 martial arts and combined them in a 32-step forum for troop training. A number of martial arts can be traced back to that book. Douglas Wile in "Tai Chi Ancestors" makes a good case for the book being one of the foundations of Tai Chi Chuan.
This is a video on the Bodhidharma myth and it also has information on ancient martial arts http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R6kwYocMnIo
This video shows how old martial arts are and that they have existed since prehistoric times around the world. It shows that there are Chinese martial arts which predate Bodhidharma and the Shaolin Temple. This video debunks the myth that martial arts and Shaolin Kung Fu came from India. It is shown why martial arts would have developed independently in countries and not come from just one country.
The legend goes that in the 6th century A.D., an Indian monk named Bodidharma came to a Shaolin temple in China where he taught the monks - who were in bad shape and had troubles with raiders sometimes - 'something' (either some martial arts or just excercises to increase fitness, body strength and condition) > which became the foundation of Shaolin kungfu. > It spread to other Shaolin temples and > eventually spread through the whole country. Then it spread to the rest of East-Asia.
I believe there are some written documents on this.
Then, there is an old martial art in India called Kalaripayattu. Some or most of the Indian practitioners of this style claim this style was what laid the foundation of Shaolin kungfu.
I guess that we'll never be able to be too certain about it though. What's even harder to say, is how much any living style/martial art is the way it was centuries ago. I personally think that martial arts always keep evolving and changing bit by bit.
For those interested some useful (and possibly wildly wrong) stuff from a BBC series from the 80's. Episode 1 starts with Shorinji Kempo which itself raises some questions about history.
