Shorts are over-exposed and too trusting in the fickleness of the long camp, and probably just had a bunch of green-candle bashing squirts pile on (same as 2010, when we went up 300%)...Short excess primes the bubble, reality is what pops it. I think it's a good bet that just happened Friday. You have not hit my ask yet - when your opponent is scared, be greedy. I do believe one day PIP will be an $8 stock. Sooner is better, but one should at least expect a couple of Qs in which PIP notches an QEPS north of 10c first. No newbie should trust I know what I'm talking about on that point without first AT LEAST seeing the insiders pony up more of their own cash. But shorty is either covering or doubling down - either way, we get buying pressure sooner or later. PIP gaining 27% on shorts getting stopped out after a fruitless week of bid pinning and utterly expected good news isn't the strangest story here - SIGA going up 8% on unambiguously bad news is. Pretty ridiculous forward P/Es on the key stats pages (PIP 8.67, SIGA 2.36). Parties might settle with something as simple as a SIGA stock dividend to PIP shareholders - I'd probably vote for a "1 SIGA share for every 2 PIP shares owned, as of some set payout date" deal, and SIGA would only have to dilute 24M shares to recover a no-brainer-bargain price conviction buy rating. And then there is the much more obvious and probable catalyst - FDA approval. Both stocks will fly or flop on that news. Both companies having highly skilled people gifted and experienced in the art of stock play? What could possibly go wrong for the shorts in the meantime? Shorty can go all in on the river for all I care - I got the straight, you got the ace?
Sentiment: Strong Sell
at least there is an attempt at analysis on his part. You are somewhat fixated on Teebrane, I assume a grudge match of some sorts. You want to blame pip's performance on one yahoo poster??? I think the court ruling, sparvax destiny with the FDA and ultimately management are the one you need to address. When a football team loses you look at the coaches and the team not blame it on the cheerleaders!!

Moby Loves Woody Allen, Fears His Own Bathroom
The musician and blogger answers our usual questions.
Name: Moby
Job: "Bald Musician," blogger, stealth slut extraordinaire
Age: 42
Neighborhood: Lower East Side
Who's your favorite New Yorker, living or dead, real or fictional?
A toss-up between Jacob Riis and Woody Allen. Or Marcel Duchamp. Can I pick all three? Okay, all three.
What's the best meal you've eaten in New York?
The assorted Korean pancakes with spicy kimchee at Franchia, on Park Avenue at 34th Street.
In one sentence, what do you actually do all day in your job?
I make music in my studio and answer online Q&As.
Would you still live here on a $35,000 salary?
When I first moved back here (I was born on 148th Street, but grew up in Connecticut), I was making $10,000 a year and paying $150 a month in rent. That was only twenty years ago. I honestly don't know if it would be possible to live in Manhattan (or even Brooklyn at this point) on $35,000 a year.
What's the last thing you saw on Broadway?
A drunk tourist yelling at his girlfriend.
Do you give money to panhandlers?
What's your drink?
Cheap beer from the deli.
How often do you prepare your own meals?
At least once a day. But wait, does microwaving an Amy's burrito count as preparing a meal? I hope so.
What's your favorite medication?
Xanax for long flights.
What's hanging above your sofa?
A picture of Woody Allen.
How much is too much to spend on a haircut?
Sadly, you're asking the wrong person.
When's bedtime?
Usually around 3 or 4 a.m.
Which do you prefer, the old Times Square or the new Times Square?
Old Times Square. Old Times Square was amazing, even if every time you went there you took your life in your hands. New Times Square is an impressive spectacle, but it's lost its soul.
What do you think of Donald Trump?
I don't know why he never smiles. Seems like one of the points of having a trillion dollars is to be happy and smile on occasion.
What do you hate most about living in New York?
The fact that interesting people can no longer afford to live in Manhattan.
Who is your mortal enemy?
That stupid cockroach in my bathroom who terrifies me when I go to pee in the middle of the night.
When's the last time you drove a car?
It was in the nineties but I don't exactly remember when.
Who should be the next president?
Barack Obama.
Times, Post, or Daily News?
None of the above. Although I do love the Metro section of the Times. It makes NYC seem like a little town.
Where do you go to be alone?
My roof. Although sometimes my neighbor's dog climbs under the fence and hangs out with me. But that's okay, he's nice.
What makes someone a New Yorker?
The tendency to unintentionally confuse tourists with directions.

Of course, I compared some MP3s to their CD counterparts and though I can't vouch for the sound being better than a CD, I did prefer the aforementioned energy of the Crystalized MP3. Audio CDs sounded punchier with the Crystalizer on as well.
Both effects can be adjusted (in three levels) by tapping on the unit's upper right corner, where there's a button nested underneath the panel. When the appropriate light turns on, you twist the volume knob to get to your setting, which is indicated by the frequency of flashing lights.
Since it's an external device, the Xmod is particularly useful with a laptop. Controlling your computer's system-level volume using the metal knob is nice, too. It can also be used with any audio device by way of the line-in port, next to the headphone jack, though you'll have to use an AC adapter via the USB port (not included). A line-level output is located next to the USB port. While the Crystalizer works just as well for an MP3 player (I used it on an iPod), it's not as practical since it forces you to be stationary. We'd love to see the technology built right into an MP3 player someday (that is, a Creative Zen featuring X-Fi). Various players from Cowon (BBE effects) and SRS Wow-powered players already exist, and they too enhance sound--just not the way the Xmod does.
The Xmod package includes Creative earbuds, a USB cable, a soft case, and a user's manual.
Overall, I'm impressed with the Xmod, and at $79, it's worth checking out--even with all the PR marketing hoopla surrounding this technology. I don't like that it limits your "Crystalized" audio to the nearest power outlet or computer, but I think Creative's X-Fi technology will make it into portable devices soon.

In this paper, we develop a new framework for face recognition based on nonparametric discriminant analysis (NDA) and multi-classifier integration. Traditional LDA-based methods suffer a fundamental limitation originating from the parametric nature of scatter matrices, which are based on the Gaussian distribution assumption. The performance of these methods notably degrades when the actual distribution is Non-Gaussian. To address this problem, we propose a new formulation of scatter matrices to extend the two-class nonparametric discriminant analysis to multi-class cases. Then, we develop two more improved multi-class NDA-based algorithms (NSA and NFA) with each one having two complementary methods based on the principal space and the null space of the intra-class scatter matrix respectively. Comparing to the NSA, the NFA is more effective in the utilization of the classification boundary information. In order to exploit the complementary nature of the two kinds of NFA (PNFA and NNFA), we finally develop a dual NFA-based multi-classifier fusion framework by employing the over complete Gabor representation to boost the recognition performance. We show the improvements of the developed new algorithms over the traditional subspace methods through comparative experiments on two challenging face databases, Purdue AR database and XM2VTS database.

I want to make an expandable list of radio groups in my android app. each element of the list should contain (when opened) several individual radio groups. So far I am testing with only one radiogroup per child and already I am encountering a problem I can't seem to solve by myself.
When I expand a parent of my expandable list, it seems to work properly. The radiobuttons of a radiogroup (which is the only child element of a parent right now) are displayed the way they should. However, when I expand another parent of my expandable list, the radio buttons are added to the already existing buttons of the other child group. Which means: Once I've expanded several child groups, each one of the expanded children contains tons of radio buttons, flooding the whole screen. Simply put, when I expand parent 1 I get the choices
- yes
- no
- maybe
When I expand the second parent, I get the radio choices
- yes
- no
- maybe
- yes
- no
- perhaps
- probably
... which are also added to the radio button group thats inside parent 1. So now I have 2 large expanded list elements. When I expand another group, the choices get added to all the child views as well, and so on, and so on...
So, following simple logic it seems that all the radio buttons are not put into a new group (thats newly created every time I expand a child list), but instead they are added to the same, already existing group.
I have been able to pretty much isolate the problem to the getChildView function inside my ExpandableListAdapter class. This is the code which causes the output described above:
public View getChildView(int groupPosition, int childPosition, boolean isLastChild, View view,
ViewGroup parent) {
ExpandListChild child = (ExpandListChild) getChild(groupPosition, childPosition);
if (view == null) {
LayoutInflater infalInflater = (LayoutInflater) context.getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
view = infalInflater.inflate(R.layout.child_layout, null);
ArrayList<HashMap<String,String>> inputDetailsList = child.getInputfields();
//RadioGroup rg = new RadioGroup(view.getContext());
RadioGroup rg = (RadioGroup) view.findViewById(R.id.radiogroup);
int has_radiogroup = 0;
for (int i = 0; i <inputDetailsList.size(); i++){
if (inputDetailsList.get(i).get("type").equals("radio")){
has_radiogroup = 1;
RadioButton rb = new RadioButton(rg.getContext());
return view;
Here is the xml file that is used as child layout:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical" >
android:textSize="17dip" />
The line where I suspect my error could be this one:
RadioGroup rg = (RadioGroup) view.findViewById(R.id.radiogroup);
It looks for the radio group I created inside the inflated child layout (R.layout.child_layout). But it does not use a new one for each expanded child view and instead uses an existing one to apply the buttons to. In other words, it seems like the radio group never gets the sign that its "finished" and/or the child view never gets the sign that a new radioGroup has to be used instead of the old one.
What I have tried is creating a new RadioGroup for each child view using the following line (you can see it is the commented line in the code above), instead of using the radiogroup I defined in my layout. Making a fresh radiogroup would look like this:
RadioGroup rg = new RadioGroup(view.getContext());
However, this does not work, it does not display any radio groups, let alone buttons at all. I have also tried removing the radiogroup element from the layout xml-file (because its not used anyway). Still no luck. Using simple unorganized textviews for each element seems to work properly, so this points to a problem with my radio group implementation as well.
Honestly, I am out of ideas right now. I might be getting the wrong context, but I have no clue what context to use. If anyone is able to point me the right direction, I would be extremely grateful. Thanks in advance.

We first saw the Patriot Wildfire back in June of 2011 and at the time it was one of the hottest new SSDs on the market. That was around 9 months ago so while no longer new, Wildfire is still competitive with, and considered one of the best on the market today. The key to Wildfire's longevity is the Toshiba Toggle Mode flash Patriot chose to use on this SSD.
Toshiba and their partner SanDisk has received a lot of press lately for their new 24nm Toggle Mode flash. The new 24nm flash has proven to be very fast, but that is about the only thing it's proved so far. We're still seeing issues in our labs with write performance degrading rapidly until TRIM finishes its cycle. This was not a problem on the older 32nm Toggle Mode flash, the same used on the Patriot Wildfire.
For most consumer users the issues we're seeing with 24nm Toggle Mode flash aren't going to be a big issue because the TRIM cycle is fairly quick. I've heard the WHQL spec for TRIM is around 70ms, but we've found that isn't always the case. In RAID we are still waiting for Microsoft and Intel to get their ducks in a row, so using 24nm Toggle Mode flash isn't ideal at this time. Older 32nm Toggle Mode flash is still the best choice for RAID. Given that Patriot has already announced their Wildfire SE (Second Edition) with 24nm Toggle Mode flash and a Wildfire PRO model with more space allocated to background and performance improving functions we're going to say that others have already noticed what we have with the new 24nm flash and RAID.
So even with new flash right around the corner the old flash may be a better option today for your high performance RAID needs. Today we are going to put that to the test and rock the block with some RAID performance featuring the Patriot Wildfire 128GB drives. To spice thing up we are running dual drive RAID 0 on the built in Intel RAID and 4 drive RAID 5 with the awesome LSI 9265-8i.

Albemarle slides by Polk 3-1
Published: Thursday, November 6, 2008 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, November 6, 2008 at 7:44 a.m.
COLUMBUS Just one minute after Polk Countys David Abril scored to cut Albemarles lead in half, the Wolverines earned one of their eight corner kicks. Despite two good looks at the goal, Polk couldnt convert.
Photo Galleries
It was one of many good chances that just missed as Albemarle came away with a 3-1 victory in Wednesdays sectional finals of the NCHSAA 1-A playoffs. Shane McConlogue had two goals and one assist for the Bulldogs, who will face Bishop McGuinness on Saturday in the semifinals.
If you cant put it in the goal, you cant win, Polk coach Lennox Charles said.
Polk outshot Albemarle 12-7 at Polk County Middle School and had an 8-1 advantage in corner kicks. It didnt help that the Wolverines were without leading scorer Cole Weicker, who fractured his tibia in Saturdays second-round win over Hendersonville.
No, Charles said. No it did not (help). The fact that our other forwards were able to outrun them at time and Cole is easily our fastest player, you figure he would have been able to create a few more chances for us.
Chances, though, werent Polks problem. The problem was converting chances into goals.
Albemarle had no such problem. McConlogue scored in the sixth minute, which gave the Bulldogs the early lead and a tactical advantage.
They were able to do what they do: Sit back, absorb pressure and then counter, Charles said.
Albemarle absorbed a lot of pressure in the first half, with shots sailing just wide or hitting the crossbar. But with under one minute left in the half, McConlogue countered again for a 2-0 lead.
The key thing here was not taking advantage of opportunities and we had them, even without Cole, said Charles. They had four, maybe just the three, good chances and they scored three of them. We had eight or nine, conservatively, and scored one goal.
Abril converted on a direct free kick from about 35 yards away with 21:41 to play. He sent a serve to the far post, trying to connect with Heath Culbreth. Instead of finding the tall defender, the ball found the corner of the net.
But after Polk couldnt take advantage of the corner moments later, Albemarle again went on the counter attack. McConlogue broke out and found Purich Tanprasertkul to push the lead back to two just three minutes after the Abril score.
The Wolverines allowed only one other team, T.C. Roberson, to score three goals on them this season. It was their only loss of the regular season.
Polk, ranked fifth in the latest 1-A poll ends the season at 17-2-3. Eight-ranked Albemarle moves to 15-5-1.

This was a really nice treat. We really enjoyed it. We followed the recipe precisely. Next time I think we'd reduce the chocolate. I used 1/2 cup and it was a bit too much chocolate. Thank you! Had to come back after having this today...it definitely tastes better the day after. 5 stars! Thanks again.
This chocolate ice cream is heaven! After making Charlotte's Angel Food Cake, I was looking for a way to use up some of the leftover egg yolks and discovered this wonderful recipe! Creamy, rich and smooth! Delicious and rich in chocolaty flavor! I made exactly as directed for a wonderful treat! Thanks so much, Charlotte!

Flash Alternatives
Klaus: Flash doesn't work well, so what is a person to do? Could you use the Wine program and download a Windows browser version; install SeaMonkey, Chrome, or something else? What about Lightspark? Does it work?
Thanks, Joe
It seems that, probably, because of its proprietary nature and frequent security problems, many vendors are abandoning Flash as a browser plugin or video player for their browsers lately. But, there are still fields of application for Flash:
- videos, especially the Flash player-optimized
.flvvideo format,
- interactive games or programs written in Adobe's Flash programming language ActionScript, and
- interactive and multimedia elements in some websites.
The original Flash Player is not really needed anymore for just playing videos because MPlayer or VLC can play
.flv files with much better performance. Also, YouTube offers an alternative HTML5-based view for many videos, especially the newer videos. So, if you go to the so-called "experimental" HTML5 version of YouTube [1], you might be able to say goodbye to the Flash plugin and use the browser's internal video player support.
About Wine: Most Flash problems are not related to Windows or Linux, so running Windows programs in the Wine emulator and installing the Windows version of Flash Player there will most likely not give you a more stable or faster Flash experience than running Flash natively on Linux.
Lightspark [2] is a quite new and interesting replacement project for the Flash-based video player. It aims to be faster and more stable than the original player, yet it is open source and does not contain proprietary modules. The project is located on GitHub, and an official Debian package is available: browser-plugin-lightspark [3].
If you still need proprietary Flash support in Debian, you can download and upgrade the Flash plugin by installing the newest flashplugin-nonfree package. Then, run
sudo update-flashplugin-nonfree
to check for and install the newest versions of the Flash plugin for Firefox/Iceweasel.

STRUTHERS — Despite originally being closed for about two weeks for "remodeling," the Struthers location of Los Gallos Authentic Mexican Restaurant and Sports Cantina will not reopen.
Neither will The Cellar, the rock venue located in the basement of the 162 S. Bridge St. building, according to a letter written by Israel Zambrano, Los Gallos' owner, and addressed to Struthers Mayor Terry Stocker, the city's police department and officials, and "all the wonderful citizens of Struthers, Ohio."
The letter was posted on the websites for both Los Gallos and The Cellar and is dated Nov. 26.
Zambrano notes, too, that when he decided to open a location in Struthers, he was "determined to make it a beautiful restaurant," and also wanted to "bring back entertainment to the area."
Just last month, Zambrano told The Vindicator that the Struthers location would feature a full bar, but a limited menu.
Instead, Zambrano's letter said "sometimes in life you have to make decisions that truly break your heart," and that "this is one decision I hate to announce but unfortunately it has to be done."
This has nothing to do with crumbling of the Valley. It has to do with the fact that a business person did not study the area well enough to know that no one goes to Mexican places routinely. He offered no variety. The place is beautiful but who wants that kind of food except once in awhile..? PS - the food was awful.

Re: Johnson reneged on agreement to fight Langford
"You made a thread about Johnson not keeping his word with the NSC to come back and defend his title for a paltry £1000, a big song and dance during which you twice called him a "scumbag". You are not even sure if Johnson signed the contract yet you go off as though he is the only fighter to renege on a fight and its some unique occurence , instead of which its been going on since boxing began."
Never said he was the only fighter to do something like this but why should that change my personal opinion of him for doing it? As for how sure I am he did it and having any proof, the N.Y. Times indicated they had a copy of his letter SIGNED by him. That seems like pretty good proof to me. But, you want to see the letter and signature to have your handwriting expert perform an ****ysis. I'm on it, I'll do my best to track it down.
"How else is one to intrepret your opinion of Jack Johnson as other than biased against him?"
Personally, I think you're biased when it comes to Johnson.
"As I said I am not alone in my opinion of your stance in this matter, but never fear ,as soon as he sees this ,Mendoza will be galloping to your side and you will have the company of that revered historian ,and classic scholar to give you moral support."
No matter, I'm comfortable expressing my own opinion regardless of who disagrees with it.
"I've done you a favour on this thread , by keeping it going , I've enabled you to get several plugs in for your book. You should give me a % of the royalties. "
Maybe so. But, as for royalties let me tell you there is no money to be made in writing a boxing book, at least based on my personal experience. I kept fairly good track of my expenses in writing the Langford book and the revenues I brought in. And, I figure I've made about all of $2,000 on the book to-date. And, that is only if you don't take into account the thousands of hours spent researching and writing it. I've told countless folks that in terms of my financial situation I would be much further ahead if I'd spent all that time flipping burgers at McDonalds instead. Writing a boxing book should be viewed as a labor of love. However, maybe I'll actually end up making a bit of money if that Billy Miske movie really does get made based on my book (see other thread).
McVey, I have always enjoyed your posts in the past. This thread has obviously become heated between us and I regret that. But, I really don't appreciate being accused of purposely trying to mislead anyone, that is not my style. I think it's fair for you to accuse me of being biased in your opinion but I felt you went too fair with that accusation.

Several of my friends have written books on what we call in the UK ,Field Sports , none have done much better than break even
I was attempting to defuse what you described as a somewhat heated situation.
In the interests of mutual enjoyment, and respect for each others posts , I unreservedly withdraw my remark, and wish you" Bon Chance" with the movie rights on William Miske.

Re: Johnson reneged on agreement to fight Langford
I took the trouble to request the microfilm of the 1909 New York newspaper 'The World' to see if I could find the photo of the letter that the National Sporting Club claimed Johnson signed himself agreeing to come back and fight and face Langford after his fight with Burns in Australia. And, sure enough there it was in their May 3, 1909 edition. I've got to figure out how to post the scan I took. But, in the meantime here's the article from The World that accompanied the picture of the letter May 3rd:
"Black Champion Proves He Tampers With The Truth.
His Agreement to Box Before the National Sporting Club of London Was Signed with His Own Hand.
He Tried to Shift the Responsibility to Others.
World Produces Photograph of His Signed Letter - Opinion of Secretary of Club.
By William P. McLoughlin
Very few persons who have followed the course of Mistah Jack Johnson since he won the heavyweight championship of hte world by walloping little Tommy Burns need to be told of the absolute indifference of the big negro to either truth or candor. Those, however, who like the man from Missouri, must "be shown" before they will believe and derive the most convincing proof of Johnson's dishonorable character from the letter which I print in this column and the photographic facsimile which accompanied that letter from London.
It will be remembered that the moment Johnson was proclaimed heavyweight champion he began to suffer from what a facetious friend of mine would call "elephantasis of the cranium," but which the erudite Kid Griffo describes as the "swelled cocoa."
Dropped His Friends Overboard.
Johnson as soon as he gained the title, had no further use for the men who had stood by him when he was hustling after a snack of pork and chicken. Sam Fitzpatrick, who went broke and kept on borrowing from his friends to grub stake Johnson in the vague hope of getting it back when he would succeed in working the negro into the championship class, was cast aside. Johnson gave no earthly reason for this act of gross ingratitude. Fitzpatrick the faithful had to beat it back to San Francisco from Australia with all his pockets turned inside out, while the slugger he befriended arrived with bulging pocketbook and a bushel of resin unerative contracts.
More offers were made here. The negro promptly began to sidestep those to which he was already bound so as to hitch up with newer and more liberal ones. RIght and left he disregarded his moral as well as literal obligations. So far did he go in this direction that in order to allay in some measure the popular indignation he began to worse than romance. He liked like the lamented Joe Mulhatton or Tom Ochiltree. He was worse than a gas meter. He blamed this, that or the other person for having signed contracts for him of which he knew nothing whatsoever.
When he threw over his agreement to box Sam Langford before the National Sporting Club in London, he declared that he had never agreed to any such proposition.
The Proof of It Is Here
I am enabled today to present a damming proof of the four-flushing negro's duplicity and bad faith. The photograph (next column) shows Johnson's own letter to the club, signed by himself, in which he makes the offer to meet Langford. The camera does not lie.
Following is a letter from Mr. Bettinson, secretary of the National Sporting Club, which I received today:
National Sporting Club, Ltd.,
Covent Garden, W.C.
April 23, 1909
Dear Sir - I cabled you the other day that Johnson's statements were untrue, in consequence of several American newspaper cuttings I had received, in which he stated he repudiated Fitzpatrick's contracts, as if he had not any knowledge of what had been done.
Of course you will see by the enclosed photograph, that Johnson was absolutely personally responsible. In fact, the suggestion to box Langford for the same purse, win or lose, with Burns, came from him; and at the time, I thought it very decent of him to make the offer. The club did not ask him to do so, and I am quite certain we should always have been willing to have made a bigger offer, in the event of a victory over Burns. However, he is a ******, and a very bad type of one; and, as far as the club is concerned, we do not wish to bother about him, but when I see him making lying statements in the American Papers, I think it only right that I should repudiate them.
I think Johnson is throwing away the substance for the shadow, as he had 6,000 pounds worth of contracts booked up in London for six months of easy work. Of course, he may get more money in American, but I think this is pretty good booking for a black man.
I am please to say, we have got a good English champion. He is a big fellow, fourteen stone, and can really box well. He knocked out Moir in 2 min. 47 sec. on Monday evening last, and could do it at any time when called upon. Personally, I think he would have a great chance with Tommy Burns. How he will fare with Langford, I do not know, but he is very confident that no twelve-stone man can beat him. As a matter of fact he has seen Johnson, and think he could beat him. Still, we must wait to see how he goes with Langford before saying too much.
Sincerely yours,
A.F. Bettinson
No wonder Johnson is hissed and hooted at his every appearance on the stage here. Lovers of boxing the world over are naturally lovers of fair play. There is no other game which is so keenly sensitive to the touch of dishonor, and when there comes along a faker he generally reaps the reward for which he has sown the seen.
Langford is little better than Johnson. He has tricked and "pulled" and faked in the ring whenever it suited the purpose of his backers. He has hopped aside when Johnson almost caught with the goods on him.
I should like to see the two of 'em inside the ropes, and I'd like very much to see them winde up like the snake who got his tail in his mouth and swallowed himself holus bolus. I'd send a couple of wreaths.

Re: Johnson reneged on agreement to fight Langford
The letter that Bettinson sent a photograph of to The World from Johnson was dated September 19, 1908 and read:
"I undertake and agree to carry out my Contest with Sam Langford on the 22nd February 1909, on the same terms and conditions as already arranged with Langford, visa - $1,000 purse, and one third of the interest in any Bioscopic Pictures that may be taken.
At the same time, allow me to tender my thanks to you for the courtesy you have extended to myself any my Manager, - Mr. Sam Fitzpatrick, whilst we have been in this Country.
I am, Gentleman
Yours faithfully
(Signed Jack Johnson) Will try to insert image next.

Re: Johnson reneged on agreement to fight Langford
I still think £1000 was a paltry sum to offer Johnson and expect him to come back from Australia to defend his new crown for . What is that fable where one creature offers another a deal to get himself out of a sticky situation, then afterwards reverts back to his original self , justifying it by saying ,"Ah but I said that when I was in trouble,Im ok now"?
Bettinson was a nasty piece of work , he made sure no black man was allowed to fight for British titles for many decades when he took his revenge .

Religion has done love a great service by making it a sin.
Anatole France (1844 - 1924)
Contributed by: Zaady
Love is a balm that contains the power of healing and of renewing and of everlasting life within its effulgent essence. Love is the great refiner and beautifier. Love is more! Love is the key to every door. It is the creative reality behind every righteous desire and every ardent hope. Love is the cohesive power of the universe as it binds together atoms and substance. It holds families together-the world and the entire universe. If love were withdrawn all things would fall apart and disintegrate. When a human being eliminates love from his life he too begins to fall apart. Love is not only eternal but it is the most desirable element to possess.

I both love and do not love; and am mad and not mad.
Anacreon (c. 568 - 478 BC)
Cursed be he above all others Who's enslaved by love of money. Money takes the place of brothers, Money takes the place of parents, Money brings us war and slaughter.
Throw your dreams into space like a kite, and you do not know what it will bring back, a new life, a new friend, a new love, a new country.

"Manuel Antonio" Provincia de Puntarenas by easterntrekker
Provincia de Puntarenas Travel Guide: 874 reviews and 2,069 photos
This magnificent tiny area of Costa Rica has so much to offer. The ..gorgeous white sand beach , the park of course and loads of wildlife ...everywhere. We visited for a day trip a few years ago and vowed to come back . It's a popular spot so probably best to books ahead. We decied to treat ourselves to a really nice hill top hotel with a view and we weren't sorry . The view was incredible!!
I think this was my favorite beach . The white sand was so gorgeous. It is really refreshing after a hike in the park!!
The park is really good but it's best tp get there early , if you can . It's really peaceful before the tourist buses arrive,
- Pros:A lot of beauty in a tiny place!!
- Cons:Discovered by many long ago..and the buses roll in frequently!!
- In a nutshell:This is the place to come if you don't have a lot of time and want a good sampling of all Costa Rica has to offer!!

The most-hyped phenoms ever
Keith Law calls San Diego State right-hander Stephen Strasburg the best pitching prospect of the past 10 years. Scouts have told Buster Olney that Strasburg might be the best pitching prospect they've ever seen.
Similar raves followed Southern Cal pitcher Mark Prior back in 2001, when the Cubs made him the second pick in the draft, but it appears Strasburg's hype will surpass Prior's by the time the draft rolls around in June.
|Don't miss more from Greg Garber and the Krispy Kreme Challenge on the Sunday morning SportsCenter.
So, as we wait for Scott Boras to work on the rumored $25 million contract he'll request for Strasburg, we present our list of the most-hyped phenoms ever, those players publicized as prime-time performers before reaching the biggest stage. And be sure to check our corresponding list of the top 10 phenom flops.
1. LeBron James
Three games into his senior year of high school, James already had appeared on the covers of ESPN The Magazine and Sports Illustrated. ESPN2 televised a game. If you lived in Ohio, you could have watched the St. Vincent-St. Mary High School squad on pay-per-view. Of course, one Page 2 writer wasn't so impressed at the time, suggesting, "In high school, LeBron James might be a man among boys -- but in the NBA, he'll be a boy among men."
2. Tiger Woods
Let's see he was on "The Mike Douglas Show" at age 2, reportedly shot a 48 over nine holes at age 3, appeared in Golf Digest at age 4, won the U.S. Junior Amateur at age 15 (and 16 and 17) and, at 18, became the youngest to win the U.S. Amateur. By the time he joined the PGA Tour in 1996, he was still just 20 years old and ready to take over. He did.
3. Michelle Wie
Here's how early the phenom watch on Wie began: She's still just 19 years old. She qualified for an LPGA event at 12, and after she finished fourth in the Kraft Nabisco Championship (a major) at 14 in 2004, the hype was in full glory. While 2007 and 2008 were disastrous, injury-plagued years, and while she's never won a 72-hole event, it's too early to call her a flop.
4. Sidney Crosby
How big was Crosby coming up through the junior ranks? He made the covers of American sports magazines and had a biography written about him before his rookie season. Top NHL execs undoubtedly sighed a collective groan when the small-market Pittsburgh Penguins won the top choice in the "Sidney Crosby Sweepstakes" following the 2005 lockout, but the Penguins must be happy with the results: 102 points as a rookie, a scoring title and MVP season as a teenager and a Stanley Cup finals appearance in his third season.
5. Lew Alcindor
No sport is as quick to proclaim its phenoms as basketball, especially if the phenom hails from New York City (see: Kenny Anderson, Stephon Marbury, Sebastian Telfair). Alcindor first became a household name while attending Power Memorial Academy in New York and then averaged 31 points per game on the UCLA freshman team (freshmen were not eligible for the varsity team at the time). By the time his sophomore campaign rolled around in 1966, he already was on magazine covers, proclaimed as college hoops' next superstar.
6. Wayne Gretzky
Sportswriters were penning stories about Gretzky when he was 7 years old, and by the time he was 10, when he was a 70-pound scoring machine in Brantford, Ontario, he already was a big name among Canadian hockey fans. He joined a junior league team at 14, racked up ungodly point totals and turned pro at 17 with the Indianapolis Racers of the WHA (who quickly sold him to Edmonton). By the time the Oilers moved to the NHL, it was no wonder he won the league MVP his first season.
7. Gregg Jefferies
The national media pays much more attention to minor league baseball than it did 10 or 15 years ago (mostly thanks to the growth of fantasy baseball), but Jefferies remains one of the most-hyped baseball prospects. Jefferies was the Mets' first-round pick in 1985, a three-time minor league MVP and two-time Baseball America minor league player of the year after hitting .354 and .367. He hit .321 in a late-season callup in 1988 to create even more hoopla but never developed into a star.
8. Ralph Sampson
The Sports Illustrated cover his freshman season at Virginia said it all: "LADIES AND GENTLEMAN, INTRODUCING THE ONE AND ONLY RALPH SAMPSON! HE DUNKS! HE BLOCKS SHOTS! HE DRIBBLES BEHIND HIS BACK! HE'S 7'4" -- AND STILL GROWING!"
9. Mike Tyson
He was heralded as the future heavyweight champ while still a teenager and didn't disappointment, winning the title at age 20.
10. Jim Ryun
Back when track and field was still considered a major sport, Ryun became the first high schooler to run a four-minute mile. He immediately became a popular magazine cover boy and made the 1964 Olympic team while still in high school. He would go on to set world records in the mile and earn an Olympic silver medal.

Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: All-Sex
Brief, somewhat insipid interviews preface scenes with girls that presumably have also appeared in the Elegant series Filthy First-Timers. The pre-scene tease is all too brief with the gorgeous bodies of the girls in this video. This keeps the scenes from being as good to watch. When one looks at the quality of the girls director Corey Jordan is shooting here, his choice not to celebrate their curves with his lens before the fucking begins is completely puzzling. The scenes are adequately shot and the editing is tight, but the mood is lacking much eroticism so things don't move too well. Danni Slam is way too giggly in her scene for much heat to generate with Tyce Buné. Luscious blonde Tawni really shines from her enthusiasm during her scene, though. It's the best scene of the video with Tawni cumming over and over, obviously enjoying the attention and the fuck.

Power and energy consumption has recently become an important issue and consequently, power-aware techniques are being devised at all levels of system design; from the circuit and device level, to the architectural, compiler, operating system, and networking layers. In this paper, we concentrate on power-aware design techniques for real-time systems. While the main focus is on hard real-time, soft real-time systems are considered as well. We start with the motivation for focusing on these systems and provide a brief discussion on power and energy objectives. We then follow with a survey of current research on a layer-by-layer basis. We conclude with illustrative examples and open research challenges. This paper provides an overview of power-aware techniques for the real-time system engineer as well as an up-to-date reference list for the researcher.

What's an inexpensive way to record acoustic guitar?
I've browsed guitarcenter and amazon, and the pickups I've found range wildly in price. This tells me there is probably a big price/quality tradeoff, about which I'd like to hear more.
P.S. I'm a newbie, been playing since September. And my guitar is Costco-level. I'm not looking for stellar, just faithful reproduction.
9 Answers answer
I don't have an answer, but if anyone does give an answer please be sure to give an answer that helps get rid of that awful scraping noise when guitarists slide their fingers up and down the neck in between notes. I hate that noise more than nails on a chalkboard.
Is the guitar acoustic or electric acoustic?
Your best bet would be a USB mic into Audacity, which is a free program. MXL puts out decent quality mics for reasonable prices, but do realize that the less you pay, the lower your sound quality is probably going to be.
Another alternative is a regular mic and a MIDI set up, but if you've got nothing, you'll be paying more for a MIDI setup that isn't crap (I've heard terrible things about the cheaper ones) and you'll notice the shortcomings of a cheap mic pretty quick.
If you can budget like $100, you should be able to get a decent MXL condenser mic and a screen for it, which would prevent it from getting damaged.
@thedogma: It's regular acoustic. Yeah mic+Audacity was the first thing I tried. Unfortunately the mic needed to be really close in order to pick up much, even with all the input volume settings at full. Amplifying in software produced some atrocious artifacts. I'm sure a better mic would sound better (this was the mic that came with Rock Band, after all), but I like the idea of the pickup since it's at a fixed position and doesn't get in the way.
@scmtim: I like the sound in a song, it adds depth, if done correctly.
A musician buddy of mine suggested a Tascam Digital Recorder when I needed a recording option. Found one discounted to the $100 range on Musician's Friend. I like that it's portable.
@gluonconcerto: A better mic in the right position would definitely help. Even with a mic stand, the RB mic isn't going to come anywhere close to cutting it.
You might also want to look into an acoustic pick up. I'm not sure how much they run, but that could be a way to get your guitar (more or less) straight into the computer.
@scmtim: You have to use physical isolation to do that. In this case, it'd have to be MIDI (or anything that abstracts your instrument into triggers), which isn't using the physical vibration of the instrument, but providing synthetic sound.
I use the LR Baggs acoustic pickups. I use the Element for my nylon-string guitars. At $120, a lot of people won't think that's cheap, but it's very reasonable for what it gives you. Dealing with "over air" recording is hard to do with just mic work. I do use Audacity for a lot of my work.

Purpose / Background
In conjunction with the Second Asia Pacific Adaptation Forum on 12-13 March in Bangkok ADB is organizing a half-day culminating workshop on ADB's regional technical assistance, Promoting Climate Change Adaptation in Asia and the Pacific (RETA 6420).
The workshop will be conducted to share and disseminate experiences and lessons learned under the RETA on how to integrate climate change adaptation in development plans, programs and projects.
The program has two main work sessions: 1) short presentations from ADB Project Officers or implementing agencies on the status, outcomes and lessons learned from the small-grant activities on adaptation implemented under the RETA, and 2) a broader overview of ADB's technical and knowledge resources, products and activities with respect to adaptation, and ongoing priorities for filling knowledge gaps to support expanded adaptation efforts.Stay up to date Subscribe to our newsletter and get the latest issues, news, events, jobs and data in your e-mail inbox.

McCain campaign a Bush repeat
Published: Monday, September 15, 2008 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, September 15, 2008 at 12:06 a.m.
Dear Editor: Since the Republican convention, John McCain's new campaign theme is 'change.' Sounds like the first real 'change' in the McCain strategy is to switch to his opponent's theme. This is a typical Rove-type strategy, which effectively negates Obama's advantage in using this theme.
Of course, replacing George Bush is a change, so any candidate can make such a claim, but we all have seen McCain's policies and how they mostly continue those of the last eight years. But now consider John McCain's claim to be a different type of campaigner. 'I am John McCain and I approve this message.' He approves taking Obama's support for teaching young kids about sexual predators and labeling it support for 'comprehensive sex education for 5-year-olds.' He continues to tell crowds how Sarah Palin sold the state jet on eBay and made a profit, when in fact the jet did not sell when listed on eBay and eventually was sold at a loss.
If his campaign behavior sounds familiar, it is because it similar to the last two Bush election strategies. Don't let the truth stand in the way of a good campaign blurb. And in her first TV interview, Sarah Palin said that she was 'wired in a way of being so committed to the mission' and that 'you can't blink.' Sounds to me like she is saying that once you make a decision, you should 'stay the course.' Does this sound like change?

This wasn't something they had control over. Beautiful Card Definitely a MUST HAVE!!!"

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) - The Birmingham-area estate of Richard Scrushy could bring millions in an auction Monday.
Attorneys trying to collect a $2.8 billion judgment against Scrushy hope the estate in Vestavia Hills sells.
The Alabama Supreme Court's recent decision to turn down an appeal by the imprisoned HealthSouth Corp. founder cleared the way for the auction.
Scrushy's fleet of cars and his lake mansion already have been sold for more than $8 million total. The money will help pay a verdict stemming from a judge's decision that Scrushy led a huge accounting fraud while he was running the Birmingham-based HealthSouth.

Front Portico
What it needs The house is structurally sound but needs all new systems. The city replaced the roof in 2005. In the more than 150 years since it was built, nearly all the farmland has been developed, leaving the original structure on a one-third-acre plot near the center of town, 10 minutes from St. Louis. Restoring the house is a big job, but your efforts will help ensure that it remains the heart of Maplewood for another century and a half or more.
