users are still able to register without any moderation. I'm not getting any notification that a new member has registered.
I just deactivated BuddyPress Registration Options, which was limiting access to my Buddypress pages but users could be added with no moderation, and installed WP User Control. This seemed to open up the entire site!
However, the two of them running at the same time does appear to work the way I want it to, except that when users click on the email link, there is a really angry looking red block that tells them they need to wait to be moderated.... I'm sure that could be a nicer colour/language/style...just need to figure out where!!!!
Have to agree with @big002. Now working with Buddypress 1.6.1.
I get the activation email. However users can still access the restricted area before I allow them to.
One problem has been solved, see this link regarding the error message. http://wordpress.org/support/topic/getting-new-warning-please-help-fast-urgent?replies=18
But as per big002, they can still register without moderation, and names that do come on the list are those who have not activated their emails as it corresponds with the list on WP Activate users.

Fiverr is super popular right now — so much so that it has spawned countless clone sites, a few of which I have talked about here. But I've never actually reviewed Fiverr itself, so here is a quick rundown:
What is Fiverr?
Fiverr is something that many people refer to as a a "micro job" site. Basically, you just post a service you are willing to offer for $5. This could be almost anything — graphic design, writing, editing, or something really off the wall. The bizarre ones are always kind of fun to read over. As long as it's legal and doesn't violate the Fiverr terms of service, you can really use your imagination here and get creative with what you sell.
How does Fiverr pay?
After you've posted your services and someone has purchased them, you have to deliver your completed work through the "Deliver Completed Work" tab on their site. After your work has been submitted, there is a 14-day clearing period. After that amount of time, you can withdraw the money to your Paypal account. Keep in mind that Fiverr takes a $1 commission off your final earnings, so what you offer for $5 you'll actually be doing for $4. Some people say that a fee is also deducted from your Paypal account when you are paid by Fiverr, so depending on how much this fee is, you might be doing work for not quite $4 🙁
Customer Ratings
You need to try to get good feedback from your customers. If your feedback rating is consistently low, Fiverr has the right to remove your posts.
The Downside
Some people are annoyed that after the fees and Fiverr commission, you are not *really* getting $5 for your work. So if you are thinking of posting your writing services on Fiverr and doing some quickie articles for $5, you might want to reconsider or possibly reduce the word count you advertise so that what you earn will be consistent with what you're willing to do for not quite $4. People also don't like having to wait the 14 days before they can withdraw their funds.
Some Good Points
In spite of any negatives, the simplicity of Fiverr (and other sites like it) is really appealing. Sure, you can get paid for your freelancing services on sites like oDesk, Guru, and Elance, but the process is a little more involved and complicated. Fiverr makes it quick and easy to post a job, get a buyer, and start making money.

Top twenty-five differences here between high school and university (or college as the Seppos call it). My favourites:
22. In college, the professors can tell you the answer without looking at the teacher's guide.
13. In high school, when the teacher said, "Good morning," you mumbled back. In college, when the professor says, "Good morning," you write it down.
11. In college, weekends start on Thursday.
4. College women are legal.

Greb can't bully Jones, so what is he going to do? Let's not pretend that Greb wasn't stopped by welterweights either. I think Jones in those small gloves has an excellent chance at a stoppage.
err.. to my knowledge Greb was truly KO'd only once, in his 7th fight, by a very good Joe Chip and this happened when he was the modern equivalent of a junior welter fighting a true middle who was on a tear.
Greb got a lot better in the next years. That would be like calling out Roy's amateur loss to Frankie Liles.
Remember, fellow fighters, even great fighters, and trainers did not remark that Greb was merely fast but that he was the fastest they had ever seen... and this was in an era when there were a lot more active boxers than in the 1990's. I would not so lightly claim that Roy was faster than Greb and certainly not consider that he was much faster.
Also, while we talking speed, I think we have two different types here. Roy, as a bait and pounce guy or an aggressor was a bit of a pot-shotter. One punch, see the results, then perhaps follow up with a flurry. Greb was a swarmer in the true sense. He overwhelmed his opponents with volume and angles. Two very different types of speed. Roy was could deliver a single punch in half a blink; Greb just delivered so many punches together.

I am trying to understand security when it comes to session cookies in php. I've been reading a lot about it, but I still lack the specifics. I need the basics, someone to show examples.
For example: Do I place
session_regenerate_id() before every session cookie? What more shall I think about. I am asking about specifics in code - examples if possible.
Thank you very much.
I am using 4 session cookies after logging in.
SESSION "site_logged_in" = true
SESSION "site_user_nr" = the number of the user to access user_table_nr
SESSION "site_user_id" = the user's id to use when changing data in tables
SESSION "site_user_name" = the name of the user to display on page
When I check if the user has access, I check if all 4 cookies are set, and if
site_logged_in is set to true.
Are there better ways? Do I have the completely wrong idea about this? Can users easily be hacked?

Feedback's quintessential song for Pohela Boishak, the first day of a Bengali New Year, "Melay Jaire" has a line on the third stranza, "বখাটে ছেলের ভিড়ে ললনাদের রেহাই নাই — the crowd of ruffians won't spare the girls". The lyricist Maqsoodul Haque had a deep insight into our tradition, culture and attitude. What might have been overlooked as a humorous innuendo has become a sad reality during this year's Bengali New Year celebrations, as a number of women fell victims to horrid gang assaults on broad day light amid the thousands enjoying the festivities.

"Group sales in the quarter declined -9% year-overyear with lower sales in Networks but with an increase in Global Services," says Hans Vestberg, President and CEO of Ericsson.
"Sales for comparable units, adjusted for currency exchange rate effects and hedging declined yearover- year -16%. Voice related sales, such as 2G, continued to decline in the quarter but were partly offset by increased 3G sales. Sales were also impacted by tight industry component supply conditions.Gross margin improved, positively affected by business mix and continued efficiency gains. Cash flow improved year-over-year. The work to regain profitability in our joint ventures is on track and Sony Ericsson shows improved results year-over-year.The market conditions we saw in the second half of 2009 prevailed also in this quarter with mixed operator investment behavior across regions and markets. Operators in a number of developing markets were still cautious with their investments which impacted Networks' sales while Professional Services sales were good also this quarter.

Images Elm and Hazel announced as two latest GreenHeart Sony Ericsson phones
As we had already reported last week the launch of these two models greenheart this week we posted some images of both phones to not get too out of date.
Sony Ericsson announced the Elm (below) and Hazel (above), the latest additions to the GreenHeart series. The two phones have previously been known as Susan (Elm) and Sunny (Hazel) or J10 (Elm) and J20 (Hazel). Both are pretty average HSPA-enabled feature phones with specifications that should surprise no one. Both are splash resistant, feature a 5-megapixel camera with autofocus, built-in aGPS, and being products under the GreenHeart umbrella, they're both made from recycled materials and are free from hazardous chemicals. The bundled charger is low on energy consumption, too.
Screen resolution remains at the QVGA standard (320 x 240 pixels), but the one on the Hazel is 2.6 inches large, whereas it's only 2.2 inches on the Elm. An interesting fact to note is that there's a 16.7 million colour TFT on the Hazel, but only 262.144-colour TFT on the Elm. Odd.
You can check out the detailed specifications in the official press release. Press photos of the Elm can be found here, and press photos of the Hazel can be found here.

Nortel wins approval for sale in the U.S. and Canada businesses to Ciena and Ericsson
By AP
"NEW YORK — (AP) — Nortel Networks Corp. said late Wednesday it won court approval in the U.S. and Canada to sell two of its business units.
The larger unit, Nortel's global optical networking and carrier ethernet businesses, is going to Ciena Corp. The business is one of the most sought-after assets of Nortel, a once-dominant network gear maker that is selling itself off in pieces after filing for Chapter 11 protection in January.
The deal gives Ciena all products, contracts, and intellectual property, including technology that improves the speed and capacity of fiber optic networks.
Bankruptcy courts in Delaware and Ontario approved the deal over objections by Finnish rival Nokia Siemens Networks, which said that it would be willing to pay $810 million in cash for the business with its partner, One Equity Partners.
Ciena is paying $530 million in cash and taking on $239 million in convertible notes due June 2017.
The companies expect to close the deal in the first quarter of next year, though court approval is still needed in France and Israel.
Shares of Ciena, based in Linthicum, Md., fell 38 cents, or 3 percent, to $12.50 in premarket trading.
Nortel, which is based in Toronto, also said Thursday that U.S. and Canadian courts have approved the sale of its North American GSM business to LM Ericsson Telephone Co. of Sweden.
Ericsson is paying $70 million in cash for the mobile telecommunications unit with Kapsch CarrierCom AG of Austria, which is acquiring the assets outside of North America for $33 million.
Nortel has already sold most of its wireless network business to Ericsson for $1.13 billion."

Our ability to develop competence, behavior and position are key success factors and we are repositioning our brand to capture these new opportunities."
The brand stands for a company's capabilities, strategic direction and differentiation from competition. It shows the direction to the market and its employees.
"Our brand must not only speak about our ambitions, but drive our ambitions", says Cesare Avenia. "My role will be to build confidence and help facilitate change in the organization. I will focus on guiding our colleagues in this transformation to secure long-term value growth."
Hans Vestberg says; "Cesare's experience from many part of Ericsson and deep knowledge of our customer needs makes him well suited to head this important task. He has an inspiring management style and I look forward to welcoming him in our Group Management Team."

In parallel, he has been teaching industrial marketing at the University of Tor Vergata in Rome. During the years with Ericsson he has hold different managerial positions, like head of Division Switching and Network Systems in Italy, head of Region Middle East and Africa, head of market unit Middle East and in 2003 he was appointed head of Ericsson Italy. Since 2006, he is head of market unit South East Europe and member of the extended group management team.
Cesare Avenia was born in 1950 in S. Maria Capua Vetere in Italy. He has a degree in Electronics Engineering. He is married and has two children.

And the Winner is: Sony Ericsson's MTV EMA 2009
Berlin, Germany, November 4, 2009: The one hundred FanWalkers make their final steps towards the EMA's '09. The Irish FanWalker Gillian Deegan already reached her final goal – she is elected to be the one presenting an MTV award live on stage.
The trek to Berlin is definitely a test of endurance and spirit for the FanWalkers – not only that they nearly walk 300 kilometers, they also take part in workshops and have the opportunity to show off their talents and stand out from the crowd.
Amidst the 100 FanWalkers is Gillian Deegan – she mastered the challenges of FanWalk together with her 99 new friends from 15 different countries. It is by no means easy for FanWalkers to motivate themselves afresh every day and stay right up at the front to maintain a chance of being elected Sony Ericsson MTV EMA presenter.
The Sony Ericsson FanWalk adventure had a different theme every day, keeping the one hundred music fans on their toes. Many attributes were called for – street style, team spirit, talent for entertaining people, connecting to them and making new friends.
Democracy prevailed – every evening with the help of motto cards the FanWalkers voted for their personal favourite from their own ranks to form a shortlist of possible award presenters.
A Jury elected Gillian Deegan from among the final five candidates as the official MTV EMA award presenter – a money-can't-buy dream prize for anyone who is passionate about music.

Nordic-based Telenor Rejects Ericsson & Nokia Gear
by Sam Churchill
Telenor, Norway's largest mobile operator with 2.98 million subscribers and a 55 percent market share, announced today that it will replace its entire mobile infrastructure in its home market of Norway, with Huawei and Starent gear for its mobile network.
"This is the biggest upgrade of the mobile network in Norway we have ever carried out", said Ragnar Kårhus, CEO of Telenor Norway. "Our main aim is to provide customers with better, more innovative services across the country". The size of the contract was not disclosed.
China's Huawei will provide the radio access network kit, while Starent will supply the mobile core network such as their ST40 which is compatible with various mobile networks, including 3GPP, CDMA, LTE, UMTS/HSPA, femtocell, WiFi, and WiMAX networks.
The existing network was largely built by Swedish-based Ericsson and Nokia Siemens Networks, based in Finland. The six-year agreement includes the delivery of multi-base stations for 2G, 3G/UMTS and 4G/LTE. Telenor is the seventh largest carrier in the world, with 172 million subscribers.
It's a major deal for both Huawei and Starent, and a bit of a shocker for Nordic-based Ericsson and Nokia. Starent recently landed major contracts from Verizon Wireless to a Taiwan consortium deploying a nationwide WiMax network. Cisco recently bought Starent for $2.9B. Nokia Siemens, meanwhile, is Hot for Nortel's MEN, reports Unstrung.
Telenor successfully launched their THOR 6 satellite on October, 29 and will commence commercial services next year at 1 degree west.
Telenor Satellite Broadcasting provides extensive television broadcasting services for distribution and contribution applications to broadcasters throughout Europe.

Mobile Project Library South Africa books to boost education
Sony Corporation, supporting SAPESI's efforts to contribute in overcoming the challenges South Africa's compulsory education system face, took the lead in the campaign. Sony companies in English-speaking countries, namely Sony UK, Sony Australia, Sony New Zealand, Sony Hong Kong, Sony Singapore and Sony South Africa called upon employees to donate English children's books.
Sony employees in the various countries donated 5,700 books. In addition, Sony Corporation in Tokyo contributed funds to SAPESI in order to purchase a further 3,000 children's books in languages indigenous to South Africa. This donation was matched by the Free State Department of Education who then bought another 3,000 books.
Sony will continue its partnership with SAPESI to support the enhancement of education opportunities in South Africa.
About the South African Mobile Library Project and SAPESI
The issue of education in South Africa remains a key theme. While initiatives carried out by the South African government have led to a primary school enrollment ratio exceeding 87%, the access to books – an indispensable tool for literacy education – is limited, and the ratio of schools possessing a library is very small.
During the nine years compulsory education received by South African children, the first three years are spent learning tin their indigenous languages. From the third year children start to learn English language, and from the fourth year almost all lessons are carried out in English. Apart from Afrikaans (derived from Dutch) and English, nine of South Africa's 11 official languages are indigenous languages that have been handed down by word of mouth, and with only a limited quantity of materials written in these languages remaining, there are concerns that some of them may fade out. SAPESI is supporting the preservation of South Africa's indigenous languages through its mobile library activities.
I am particularly pleased that 2009 marks the 50th anniversary of Sony's support for education.
We all know that education is a fundamental building-block for creating better opportunities "for the next generation" – a phrase that unifies our social responsibility initiatives at Sony – which is why the Mobile Library project is so important to us.
The Mobile Library carries much more than the 5,000 books collected from our employees in six different countries; it carries our compassion for the children of South Africa.

Manuel Ferrara has a prodigious talent for driving women crazy. Witness his go-round with Kristina Rose, who has multiple screaming orgasms when he fucks her ass.
"I'm your whore, I belong to you, I love you," she shrieks in a spontaneous burst of raw emotion that's rare in commercial porn. By scene's end she is wasted.
Also notable for the woman's reaction is Ferrara's scene with Harmony, who starts curious and ends up overwhelmed. Maya Hills not only takes Ferrara's one-eyed monster in the ass but also a flurry of well-timed facial slaps, each one enflaming her more.

List odd/even css selector problem
I'm using the following css assigned to a list to create the background-color odd/even effect shown below. In 2.1, notice the rows where 'odd' is not working. Prior to 2.1 it worked.
I have a feeling the new 'infinite scroll' functionality is resetting the internal index when the items are outside the bounds of the list container.
Thanks, John
.widgetListItem:nth-child(odd) { background-color:white; }

The FA Lite plugin and now the sideways and bottom navigation elements are no longer clickable. The mouse does not show a hover pointer, If you try to click, nothing happens. This seems to be more of a problem in FireFox and Chrome, while sometimes it works in IE v8.0.6.
I noticed this problem in v2.3.6 of FA Lite and upgraded to v2.3.7 to see if that would fix it, and it is still an issue.
We're rolling our site out live tonight and this is on the Home page... help!

It seems an obvious improvement, in Kate, to jump directly to the error location given in a gcc error message.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) -- Gov. Jerry Brown is set to make his first appearance at a University of California board meeting where he's expected to urge UC officials to control costs and avoid raising tuition.
Brown is expected to attend the UC Board of Regents meeting in San Francisco on Wednesday, a day after university officials heeded his request to delay a vote on raising fees for several professional degree programs.
The governor attended Tuesday's meeting of the California State University Board of Trustees, which also agreed to postpone a vote on three new fees at Brown's request.
Brown told reporters Tuesday that the UC and CSU systems must keep a lid on costs and tuition a week after voters approved Proposition 30, which temporarily raises taxes to fund for K-12 schools and colleges.

Life Cézanne Inspires New Game: "Whose Calves Are These?"
posted by July 17 at 17:27 PMon
The enthusiastic response to The Biker—"I have a calf fetish"… "My calves are fucking HOT!!!"…"I got calves like a couple of cantaloupes"—has inspired a new Slog series called Whose Calves Are These?
The only clue—other than the peripheral objects in the photos—will be the title. The first photo in our series was taken yesterday and is titled The Cripple. Guesses should go in the comments. All answers will be revealed at the end of the week. Good luck.

Giants Insider Andrew Baggarly talks about the Giants' business-like approach, and praises Bruce Bochy's managing.
Machine Generated Transcript
Thanks welcomed at Giants say insurance Giants post game live and -- pressure on the pregame show. If the celebration that today I would be more muted because they clinched in game 152. Was opposed to two years ago -- Washington. When they went to 162. -- sensing it. A little more muted it tonight but I'm not in the clubhouse positive feelings on that giant clubhouse and on the dugout. The team that's been very businesslike as they could be a great word to describe that sort. Giants general manager Brian -- news I asked him how do you describe this year's team and really he just said it's it's a team where people picked each other up you've got Tim Lincecum. Very shockingly not pitching anywhere close to the Tim Lincecum we expect in the first half and what -- you have you got Ryan global -- Matt Cain in the Giants at one stretch or sixteen you know. In their starts you've got Brian Wilson going down early in the year and you got Santiago Casilla stepping up. Going nineteen for twenty in save situations and then the bullpen committee doing at the job after that and I did get a chance to talk to Bruce OT as well and he told me this is his most special years a manager the most special teams he's been a part of he's just so proud. Of the way that they were able crashed through the front door and this is a team that on the team Melky Cabrera was suspended. On August 15 you're tied for the division lead and and now everyone expected that this season would come down those last three games at Dodger Stadium. We're a long way from that series at Dodger Stadium and hear the Giants are popping -- so. Chris coach Ian Bryce savings is very pleased -- the way this team just kept the pedal to the metal all the way. And this is Bruce OJ second division title as the giant manager so he joins a short list of Roger Craig and Dusty Baker and ended -- -- Years' time you watch this guy from the onset -- he had inherited really they've Barry Bonds group at the end of Barry's career. A talk about the evolution of of a Bruce coaching as the giant manager we know how good was in the post season with torn a tendon. Bags but this guy had a magnificent year from wire to wire this year. There really dead. This is dealing with the Brian Wilson situation in the closer by committee situation very few managers in baseball. I think they could've gotten the results that he did in putting guys in position to perform. And yes he's had this fourteen man bullpen here in September is used guys he hasn't been afraid to get the batter by batter matchups. Doesn't matter if the games last three and a half hours he's gonna go ahead and get the matchups that he wants and do this is a guy who came on board in 2007 because they thought. His calm demeanor could really help the Shepherd the team through what they knew. Was gonna be kind of a fiasco from a PR standpoint with the Barry -- a run chase he's done that and he's provided the stability to help build a good pitching staff. Year in and year out. Like we said Tim Lincecum Brian Wilson the -- the Giants have not gotten what they expected out of those guys. And still -- standing here as division champs with a long way to go in this regular season so I think you have to give -- coaching a lot of credit for that and he's gonna get a lot of support for manager of the year along with the TV Johnson and in Washington. Without question I'd forgotten it you know these final two years in San Diego. In 2005. 2006. He won the National League best -- of those years Sandy Alderson took over and they biggest had a conflict there sandy did not want him. To be the manager to replace the the kind of forced them out they brought in Bud Black with that this is Bruce coaching six. National League west title more with the Padres in Knoxville with the Giants to three years banks. Dead is he and Dusty Baker obviously have won a lot of games in the NL west you look at Tommy -- Walter Alston other these are guys. He's right up there with them and and you know though a lot of the elder statesman in terms of managers in baseball have retired. You're Joseph Torre's of the world Lou Piniella. Certainly. Tony La Russa and you look up and Bruce OT is one of those elder statesman and I think he's gonna start to be seen in that light. And and having the kind of leadership that he gets every day from Buster Posey certainly makes it easier from a manager standpoint. Posey has just been the rock on this team that he heard the MVP -- really -- we all did today gonna be real surprised if he's not gonna win a post season award.

Very glad to hear the litigation is over... Get out of the way of science and medical research you attorney pigs.
This is a major stumbling block that is now out of the way of ACTC' progress.
Go long, Go long......
Sentiment: Buy
Exactly I agree 100%
Unfortunately we are always going to have those that are trying to pull the price down, and we may see those show up early tomorrow. But as I posted I would be picking more up if the price drops. So I am in a win win situation IMO.
Always do as you feel,
Not what you hear.
Happy investing to all Sellers, and Buyers.
I think this is a good opportunity to buy more shares... The pundts say sell, ok I'll buy. No more attorneys fee's. Good science, bad lawyer's.
You look great... ( ) .

Video Industry News Video Company News Technology Industry News Technology Company News Novelty Industry News Novelty Company News Gay Industry News Gay Company News Legal Industry News All Company News
Released: Oct 01st, 2005
Running Time: 104
Director: Ray Anderson
Company: Hustler Video
Cast: Bob Terminator, Give, Roley Reeves, Ben (I), Noon (I), Pond, Nang
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: All-Sex
There's not a lot of personality building during any of these well-shot, technically appealing scenes, but they continue the tradition of white guys doing the nasty with young Asian women in their own country.
Noon kneels on the beach slicing fruit into a box before appearing to patiently endure the touch of her co-stars. She looks good getting ass fucked on a big rock, though. Pond seems more involved with the whole process while moaning on a blanket between her two swains. Give is quiet but seems very pleased to have her pussy pounded while having her asshole gently massaged. Ben and Nang each seems satisfied with their experiences, but neither raises the room temperature to broiling.
Retailing: Solid entry in a solid series known by fans and worth recommending to those seeking non-U.S. Asian talent.

For you young ballplayers out there, Matt Holliday just showed you three reasons why you never, ever, under any circumstances slide headfirst into home plate. For one, you can break a bone -- a hand on a shin guard, a finger on a spike, a jaw on a shoe. For two, you can chin-butt the ground, never a good idea. And for three, you can miss the plate and be out.
But besides Holliday's Tom Emanski moment -- or maybe because of it -- things might not get any better than the first day of October. Typically, there are one or two signature games of the postseason, and although Padres-Rockies wasn't officially a postseason game, it will be remembered.
It'll be remembered for bad umpiring (definition of outfield umpiring: a night off), great pitching (Matt Herges, Heath Bell, Joe Thatcher) and poor but persistent pitching (Jake Peavy, who seemed ready to stay out there as long as it took to get it right).
It'll be remembered, maybe most of all, as the pinnacle of the Rockies' end-of-season comeback, a stretch of 14 wins in the final 15 games.
So Monday night was the good news, and maybe the start of a month of late-night fun. The bad news is, the wild-card era has created more memories in the first two rounds of the playoffs, and fewer in the World Series.
Why? The Rockies are a perfect example, and something tells me the Phillies will be, too. Teams that rally into the postseason rarely have the emotional endurance to carry it through to the end of October -- or, in this year's act of scheduling genius, perhaps the first day of November.
The past two World Series winners? The White Sox and The Cardinals, two teams that sagged late in the season and played their best baseball in the postseason. Sample sizes being what they are, it might be more coincidence than trend, but more likely it's an unintended consequence of a longer postseason.
Still, we already have a game to remember. Not a bad start.
This Week's List
• Proof that sometimes everybody thinks too damned much: Remember when we all wondered whether fumbling the snap was going to scar Tony Romo for life?
• Somewhere along the line a new unwritten rule was enacted and Vai Sikahema can't believe his eyes: The new trend in the NFL and college football apparently calls for punt returners to field everything inside the 10, sometimes inside with 5, without giving a thought to a fair catch.
• With the possible exception of Stanford football, of course, but that might be a category all its own: There's not a sadder sight in sports than two bad baseball teams playing their final games of the season.
• And before long, they'll be airing the Super Bowl on tape delay at 11:30 p.m. on a Wednesday night: In a move bound to bring the NFL to its knees, a law firm is filing a class-action lawsuit against the Patriots and Bill Belichick on behalf of swindled Jets fans.
• Hot at the right time: Alfonso Soriano and Travis Hafner.
• To which you must ask whether the man is ignorant, or willfully ignoring the power of dye: On the Sunday night telecast, Cris Collinsworth looked at Bob Costas and said of Brett Favre, "He has more gray hair than you and me combined."
• Paging Nolan Richardson: With their offense, the 49ers should change their team slogan to "Three hours of hell."
• Oh, no, not again: Kobe.
• This year's really tiresome coaching trend: Coaches whispering timeout calls to an official standing right next to him a nanosecond before the ball is snapped on a field goal.
• The way to fix it: Go back to the old rules -- only a player on the field can call timeout, so at least the players on the field can hear and see the call.
• I mean, sure you're a pro and all, but how would you like to be Tom Glavine and wake up Monday to this headline in the New York Post: "Terrible Tom drives final nail in Mets' coffin."
• Just to reiterate: Seven games up on Sept. 13.
• However, lost in the rush to anoint the Mets as history's worst chokers: In order for the Mets' run of 12 losses in 17 games to mean something, the Phillies had to win 13 of 17.
• Watching Ben Roethlisberger throw and throw and throw in a practice last week, a question arose: Why don't quarterbacks get sore arms the way pitchers do?
• By the way: Ben didn't have an answer either, but he said he's thought about it, too.
• There have been some who have suggested it was karma at work, but more than likely it was simply a matter of pride: There's a decent chance the Marlins might have gone down a little more quietly on Sunday if the Mets hadn't made such a mockery of them on Saturday.
• Well, at least he's come to a pretty fair assessment of the situation: Before his final game with the Giants, Barry Bonds told a group of reporters, "I broke the home run record, and then they fired me."
• And to commemorate the occasion: He didn't dress Sunday, and he left in the first inning.
• I don't really care about women's soccer, or the strategy employed by the American team's coaches, or the resulting firestorm of ego it might ignite, but there's one thing I know for sure: Hope Solo is a really cool name.
• I know it worked out in the end, and I know Clint Hurdle didn't have a whole drawer full of options, but there's one definite rule: You don't want to trust your season to Jorge Julio.
• There are a lot of questions left to be answered in the NFL this year, but none more pressing than this: Roger Goodell destroy any good evidence this week?
• And finally, a special thanks to: Norv Turner, reacquainting us with the importance of coaching in the NFL.

fico auto enhanced score
I just read about the fico auto enhanced score. here is my credit profile to give you an idea of what an auto lender will see..... I have 12 statisfactory accounts, 15 derogatory accounts (past not current) and I have 0 derogatory accounts currently. Everything bad has been in the past. My auto loan however was very satisfactory. I never once missed a payment or was late. my traditional Beacon score is 542. Any idea what range my auto enhanced score will be? Will it be enough to help me get an interest rate less than 15%?! Any help would be appreciated. I have to buy a car tomorrow on the whim. Mine just died and I have no downpayment either!!

"Find it hard to write about Los Castanos as a hotel because it felt as if we were very special guests in Di and John's home. The hotel was set in beautiful country side, it was extremely clean, and nothing was too much for our wonderful hosts."
Di's description of how she designed the rooms:
Having stayed in too many half-hearted and less-than-wonderful hotels, Di had the idea of building the most comfortable place for visitors to celebrate this quiet part of Andalucia. And her guests wholeheartedly agree that she has succeeded.
She concentrated on the guest rooms and wanted them to provide private sanctuaries where her guests would be completely at ease and lack for nothing – within reason! And so the rooms with a view developed organically and somehow developed a wonderful sense of peace and harmony that many people discover for themselves.
Di researched lighting and endeavoured to provide the two main lighting types – task oriented and atmospheric. Beside every bed in each room is a powerful reading light that focuses on the person sleeping on that side of the bed. Each room also has a strong floor lamp over the traditional Spanish rocking chairs that provide comfortable chilling out in the room.Go to gallery (opens in new window)

Research programs within the Department of Immunology address both basic science and clinical objectives. Laboratories of individual investigators target the fundamental biological principles of immunology and operate to identify, define and characterize the mechanisms that determine how our bodies distinguish foreign materials and what kind of responses are subsequently engaged. These efforts are organized around the innate immune functions that serve as determinants of inflammatory response and they ways in which such mechanisms support and direct the adaptive immune response. Efforts examining innate immunity evaluate the regulation of response to pattern recognition receptors distinguishing a wide range of invariant structures that characterize the microbial pathogen world. These include the analysis of mechanisms that mediate signal transduction and regulate patterns of gene expression that govern the ensuing inflammatory responses. Studies of adaptive immunity are oriented toward aspects of T and B cell development and function at the cellular and molecular level and include the development and evolution of specific T cell and B cell populations, the recruitment and function of specific T cell subsets in sites of immune-mediated inflammation, and the homeostatic regulation of lymphocyte number and antigen specificity. These broad themes provide remarkable opportunities for interaction among the individual laboratories and together integrate the department interests at the interface between innate and acquired immunity and the resulting complexity of immune-mediated inflammation. This concept appears to be highly relevant in a spectrum of clinically important entities that have either acute or chronic inflammation as a key causative or symptomatic feature of pathogenesis. Translation of our basic science represents a high priority for the department as a whole and our programs have 3 significant disease-related components. A major program is focused around understanding and manipulating the function of the immune system in the context of solid organ transplantation and there are 5 laboratories dedicated to this enterprise. A second feature involves the role of both innate and adaptive immune mechanisms in the pathogenesis of autoimmune disorders that include multiple sclerosis, systemic lupus erythematosis, and inflammatory bowel disease. The third translational component involves cancer immunobiology and investigators in this realm are considering how cancer cells undermine the immune system as well as how therapeutic strategies may help to direct the immune system to destroy tumors selectively.
The Department of Immunology has eight Full Staff members (Drs. Thomas Hamilton, William Baldwin, Robert Fairchild, Xiaoxia Li, Feng Lin, Kurt Runge, Ganes Sen, and Vincent Tuohy), three Associate Staff (Drs. Booki Min, Anna Valujskikh, and Shiguang Qian), two Assistant Staff (Drs. Neetu Gupta and Trine Jorgensen), and two Staff Scientists (Drs. Li-Xin Wang and Charles Tannenbaum). In addition, four investigators hold primary departmental appointments in clinical institutes and secondary appointments in the Department of Immunology. These include Drs. Brian Gastman (Plastic Surgery), Koji Hashimoto (General Surgery), Emilio Poggio (Nephrology), and Cristiano Quintini (General Surgery). These investigators participate in substantial collaborative interactions with colleagues holding primary appointments in Immunology and thereby serve as important liaisons between the laboratory bench and the bedside.

SEQUOIA NATIONAL PARK, Calif. (August 3, 2014) Dawson Johnson, 75, of Redwater, who was a longtime computer technology instructor at Texarkana College, has died in a fall while climbing Mount Whitney in California, authorities said.
Mount Whitney is the highest peak in the continental U.S.
Crews recovered Johnson's body Thursday from the north slope of the mountain at an elevation of about, 13,300 feet, the National Park Service said.
Johnson was hiking Tuesday with his wife in Sequoia National Park when he decided to take a solo hike to Mount Whitney, where other hikers reported seeing him on a trail that approaches the summit.
After Johnson failed to return to his campsite by the next morning, his wife contacted park rangers to report him missing.
