Tom Doughtie parred the first extra hole to become the first three-peat winner of the Coors Tournament of Champions on Sunday at Ross Rogers WildHorse.
Doughtie, who won the event for the sixth time in its 13-year history, tied at 12-under 274 with James Bischof, who struggled with his swing throughout the final round.
''This one was tough,'' Doughtie said. ''I couldn't get anything going early in the round and James got off to a good start.''
Doughtie, who began the final round one shot behind Bischof, trailed by four after bogeys at 3 and 4 coupled with a Bischof birdie at 2.
But Doughtie regrouped quickly by making birdies at 5 and 6, and when Bischof bogeyed 7, the deficit was still one shot when they made the turn after nine holes.
''I hit a terrible shot at 3 from the middle of the fairway, and with a short iron in my hand,'' Doughtie said. ''At 4, with rain coming down hard, I three-putted from long range.
''But after that I settled down and played well.''
He birdied 10 to pull even at 10-under before both players birdied 11.
A bogey by Bischof at 13 gave Doughtie a one-shot lead, but that was short-lived as Bischof rolled in a 40-foot birdie putt at 14 to pull even again.
''My putting saved me again,'' Bischof said. ''I struggled to find a swing all day. I never hit the ball like I wanted. But my short game bailed me out.''
Doughtie, who shot a final round of 3-under 69, birdied 15 to lead by a shot, before Bischof answered with one of his own at 16 to pull even again.
Both made par-saving putts at 17, and Bischof made a great up-and-in for par at 18 after missing the green with his approach from the middle of the fairway.
Doughtie had a chance to win outright at 18, but his lengthy birdie putt stopped inches short, setting up the fourth playoff in the history of the tournament.
At No. 1, Doughtie drove the ball into a sand trap, while Bischof's tee shot was left of the trap in high grass.
Bischof, who had a closing 2-under 70, hit his approach long and left of the green, while Doughtie reached the green from the sand.
After Bischof chipped some 18 feet past the hole, Doughtie putted to within a couple of feet and tapped in for par. Bischof then missed the par putt by inches.
''I had a good line on the putt,'' he said. ''It just didn't go in. The thing is you can't beat a player as good as Tom by scrambling for pars all day long. You have to make plenty of birdies, and I didn't do that.''
Doughtie said winning the event for the third year in a row and sixth overall was exciting. However, he said the win had a certain sense of sadness as well.
''James and I are good friends, and have been for a long time,'' Doughtie said. ''We both want to win, and we each compete hard. But, it's just harder when it's against a good friend.''
Bobby Barber closed with a 6-under 66 to finish third at 8-under 278. He played the final 36 holes in 12-under after opening with a 5-over 75 Thursday at Amarillo Country Club.
''I thought I had a chance in the final round,'' Barber said, ''but I needed a very low round. I left some shots out there and might have been able to get there. That first round really hurt me. And I didn't help myself in the second round at Tascosa Country Club. I was 3- or 4-under early in the round and wound up shooting 1-under 71.''
Casey Weiss finished fourth at 5-under 281 after a final round of even-par 72. First-round leader Kent Neal and Luke Kane tied for fifth at 4-under 282. Neal had a closing 2-over 74, and Kane a 72.

Published: December 24, 1998
Four people died in the superheated, smoke-filled stairwell of an Upper West Side high-rise yesterday as they tried to escape a fire that started in a 19th-floor apartment where the family of the actor Macaulay Culkin lived.
It was the second fire with multiple deaths in a New York City apartment building in less than a week, coming just five days after three firefighters were killed responding to a blaze in Brooklyn.
Fire officials had not determined the exact cause of the blaze, but said they suspected that an electric heat pump in the apartment may have shorted out.
The victims -- three women and one man who were found dead on floors above the fire -- were probably trapped in what Fire Commissioner Thomas Von Essen described as ''a blast of heat and smoke that went up the stairway like a chimney.'' The victims were found in a stairwell on the 27th and 29th floors, officials said.
The victims were identified as Wanda Chappell, 39, a senior vice president at Random House; Lillian Lowder, 28, who worked in the building; Constance Hurley, 77, who lived on the 28th floor, and Maitiu Breathnach, 33, who lived on the 25th floor and was an executive with PricewaterhouseCoopers.
The fatal circumstances, Commissioner Von Essen said, were similar to those that led to the deaths of the three firefighters last Friday. In that case, the firefighters died when a fireball engulfed them as they entered the narrow hallway of the burning Brooklyn building.
''When we start to move in, the fire comes out -- it roars out, it vents itself up through the stairwells, then out the building,'' Commissioner Van Essen said. ''And if these people were coming down or were trying to get down below the fire, they could have gotten caught in that blast of smoke and heat.''
The four-alarm fire was reported shortly before 10 A.M. at South Park Towers, a 51-story building at 124 West 60th Street with 542 apartments on the upper floors and medical and commercial offices on the lower 10 floors.
Commissioner Von Essen said the building, which opened in 1986, has a sprinkler system for the lower 10 commercial-use floors. City regulations do not require sprinklers for the upper residential floors, he said.
As white ashy smoke poured from the window of the Culkin apartment, on the southeast corner of the building, residents of other apartments above, below and on the other side ran onto their balconies waving and shouting for help. The Culkin family escaped without injury.
Patients from the doctors' offices, including one woman who said she had time only to throw on her overcoat over a flimsy paper medical gown, ran to the street as nearly 200 firefighters and fire trucks from 48 separate companies arrived on the scene.
Inside the building, the 19th floor was an inferno of orange flames, sizzling plaster and black smoke, fire officials said. Nine firefighters were injured, most with neck, back and shoulder pain. Two were in stable condition at New York Presbyterian Hospital, where they were treated for burns on their faces and necks.
Fire officials said it took about two and a half hours to control the blaze, which destroyed the Culkins' residence and caused extensive damage on the 19th floor.
Law enforcement officials said the blaze started in apartments 19D and 19E, separate units that had been combined into one apartment. They said they suspected that an electric heat pump, part of a heating unit mounted on the wall of each apartment, may have shorted out.
The unit from the scorched and gutted apartment was removed and will be sent to electrical engineering consultants for study, the officials said.
One witness, observing the fast-spreading fire from an adjacent building, said he saw a Christmas tree on fire inside the apartment. The witness, Joe Libretti, an ironworker at a building under construction at 2 Columbus Circle, said he looked over to South Park Towers from his perch on the 15th floor at about 9:45 A.M. and saw the window of the 19th-floor apartment blast open.
''It was like a pop -- it cracked it and it popped,'' Mr. Libretti said.
The fire was so intense, Mr. Libretti said, that the window frame of the apartment melted as the fire ''spread like a wild cat.''
Mr. Culkin's mother, Patricia Bentrup, lived in the apartment, as did at least three of Mr. Culkin's younger brothers, according to neighbors. One of the brothers, Kieran, has also appeared in films, including ''Father of the Bride 2.''
Macaulay Culkin, who gained fame with his lead role in the film ''Home Alone,'' lives separately from the family. Michele Bega, his publicist, said, ''The Culkins are fine, but saddened for those who perished in the fire.''
Ms. Bega said she had no information on the family's whereabouts.
Neighbors said they saw Mrs. Bentrup and some of the children, several of whom attend acting classes at the nearby Professional Children's School, in the building lobby, wrapped in blankets, shortly after the fire alarm sounded.
Residents caught inside the building described the scene inside South Park Towers as one of chaos, confusion, thick smoke and fear.

Samuel Hoffman, The Journal Gazette, Associated Press
FORT WAYNE, Ind. — To walk into the sanctuary of First Presbyterian Church in Fort Wayne is to enter a serene space, with a vaulted ceiling supported by more than a dozen white columns flanking rows of wooden pews anchored to an unadorned a stone floor.
It's the kind of no-distractions place that would seem to facilitate communing with heaven - but frustrates the devil out of some hearing-impaired members.
Former First Presbyterian elder Will Clark walks about a third of the way up the center aisle and claps his hands together once.
"Hear that?" he says, as the concussion echoes around the room - one, two, three, four, five seconds - before beginning to fade away.
"That's it," he says. "Five seconds is a long time."
Such reverberations, Clark says, have left worshippers who have hearing loss, including his wife, Ginny, to struggle to understand the words of sermons, Bible readings and prayers.
That's why the Clarks persuaded the downtown congregation to install technology that allows users of most hearing aids to flick a switch on their devices and have crystal-clear reception.
The church installed a hearing loop, also called a magnetic induction loop. It's an invisible system that makes speech in large public spaces such as churches, theaters, auditoriums, public meeting rooms and courtrooms more understandable to the hearing-impaired.
Ginny, whose congenitally based hearing loss became an impediment in her early 40s, says the system makes it seem like anyone who speaks into the microphone at church is sitting on her shoulder and talking right into her head.
"It doesn't change the sound in the room. It doesn't have any effect on anybody who is not wearing a hearing aid," she says, explaining that the system works with a copper wire extended under the floor around the perimeter of the room and hooked into the existing amplification system.
When someone speaks into the mike, the sound goes directly to the wire instead of through the air, and then it's wirelessly picked up by a tiny device called a telecoil, or T-coil, present in about 70 percent of hearing aids.
"What happens is the only sound you get is what the speaker is saying into the system - no echoes, no people sneezing or coughing. That's what makes it so good," she says.
The Clarks say they became aware of hearing loops from a hearing-impaired friend. He gained experience with the devices while visiting a cathedral in Scotland. The loops have been used in Europe for 20 to 30 years, the Clarks say, but are just beginning to be known in the United States.
The couple are trying to change that, at least in Fort Wayne. They've contacted the mayor's office and had open houses at First Presbyterian to educate church and community leaders about installing the loops, calling their initiative "Loop Fort Wayne."
"Many communities around the country are doing it, and Fort Wayne would be the first in Indiana," Ginny Clark says, adding that two churches in southern Indiana are looped, as is the South Bend airport.
Sites in Michigan, Colorado, Wisconsin and Florida, the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C., and ticket windows in New York City's subway system are looped, she says, and installing the systems nationwide has been a major initiative of Sertoma (Service to Mankind) clubs since 2010.
At First Presbyterian, the sanctuary is not the only place to have a hearing loop - its theater, chapel and McKay Hall gathering space all have loops, with signs notifying hearing-aid wearers to switch on their T-coils.
Bill Patterson, the church's facilities director, says the system replaces earlier devices.

We ate at the Evergreen twice and both times, we really enjoyed our dinner. I had the tomato soup as a starter one evening and loved it so much, I tried to get the recipe. My husband had the duck and said it was the best he had ever had. The quality of the food is excellent. It is an open kitchen and we could hear the head chef giving detailed instructions to the sous chefs to make sure the food was perfect - and it was. There are some good restaurants in town, but the Evergreen should definitely be on your list of places to dine.

I've added a function to my theme's functions.php file that executes when a post it published:
add_action('publish_post', 'mrh_my_function', 99);
Anyway, the function itself works fine; however, I want to echo out some information to the post edit screen after it's finished the publishing process to display status information that my function was able to do xyz or it wasn't. How do I go about this without getting modifying headers error if I do a straight echo within my function?
Ooops.. guess this should have gone in the hacks forum. Oh well, Since I can't delete this, I'll just leave it here rather than make a new one elsewhere.

I'm wondering if anyone has/knows of any examples of networking code integrated with OpenGL.
Basically, I need to send position coordinates of something over a network to my OpenGL display... which would then draw the object at the correct position.
The problem I'm having is integrating my UDP code with the game. I basically have a loop which constantly updates/draws. I originally thought that I could have the UDP code in a separate thread and just update the shared coordinates. However, if my draw functions read position before the network code is done writing the new position then I have a race condition and invalid data... however I can't make the Update or Draw loops block...
I'm not sure if I should be using Synchronous or Asynchronous networking code here.
So, any tips on how I can solve this problem? Thanks

What to expect from online gambling: 1) Online poker will precede other forms of online gambling as the game of skill is viewed as easier to garner approval. Wynn Resorts (WYNN), MGM Resorts (MGM), and Caesars (CZR) have been planning aggressively for this day, but Las Vegas Sands (LVS) has been stuck in neutral. 2) State bill 114 gives Nevada the power to negotiate with other states to offer online gambling services. 3) The Nevada Game Board says it has 20 pending applications from operators and equipment manufacturers. Look for tech companies (previous: Zynga) to be in the mix. 4) Firms tied to the 2006-2011 illegal online gaming market are banned, indicating some of the strongest poker websites may be on the outside looking in.

As expected, online games companies will be "in the mix" as poker game coders, but not gambling vendors. The real opportunities will be controlled by the casinos: http://bit.ly/11ZPZqu
Fed and state. I certainly do not mind gambling casinos. I enjoy going to Vegas but on-line gambling. The people that cannot afford to gamble will now be going broke, on-line.
Those same extra gov't revenues will go to pay for those losing their shirt on-line, more food stamp applications and more Medicaid.
Now dealing with profits, could we see the actual casinos taking a hit from people not going, less rooms booked, less food, drinking and less shopping. The diverting of money on-line could hurt them more.
Perfect example and many others will do the same.
In Queens, we have Aqueduct race track with the new casino; no tables but the number one casino in the country.
Just a side issue: First year not getting Comp from the Mirage; I think I came out ahead for a change. So instead of paying for the plane, $7 worth of gas and I am at Aqueduct.
This is what happens when casinos are being built all over or on-line gambling becomes legal.
i agree with u guys. people who cannot afford to gamble prior this subject,will be gambling,what they can t afford. vegas, and other resorts, have now hit their bubble.well, now lets go directly to the family household, i guess vegas don t make enough degenerate s already. you are right, anybody that has a very good skill at poker, will come out ahead in the game, but will only get even, when he has to reimburse the food stamps for more people, who will take a shot at the game of skill. which is right. however, a lot of people , will need luck to overcome this internet game. and nobody has luck on a consistent basis. old saying, what ever chips go up must come down.75% of the people will not know when to cash out. like kenny roger s song THE GAMBLER. buy the CD while u are able to.
You can lie until you win and then they require proof. I was just listening to the business report and they mentioned on-line gambling. I believe NJ will approve with higher taxes for on-line winners.
The only winners are the gov't agencies that will be taking in the money. Then reducing their profit after giving to those applying for food stamps and Medicaid after losing all their money gambling on-line.
My problem with on-line gambling are the people who cannot afford and believing they could win big but will be the big losers.
Nothing wrong with gambling for those that can afford to lose money. On-line gambling will not target those people; it targets the poor.
It is not. You can play as long as you want until you win. Then you give the ticket to a family member with the hope they give you the money after taxes.
And the rest of what I said above applies to the lottery with one exception; hands on gambling can be very addictive or much more addictive then the lottery. I completely agree that people who spend a lot of their money on lotto are getting hurt but once you start gambling, you lose your money much quicker. It is the rush that lotteries do not give.
In reality, not much of a difference but just another way gov't takes in revenue and those that play lose.
As Steve Wynn stated but not in his exact words the odds are in the casinos favor and why he is an owner.

Advanced Firewall Configurations with ipset
iptables is the user-space tool for configuring firewall rules in the Linux kernel. It is actually a part of the larger netfilter framework. Perhaps because iptables is the most visible part of the netfilter framework, the framework is commonly referred to collectively as iptables. iptables has been the Linux firewall solution since the 2.4 kernel.
ipset is an extension to iptables that allows you to create firewall rules that match entire "sets" of addresses at once. Unlike normal iptables chains, which are stored and traversed linearly, IP sets are stored in indexed data structures, making lookups very efficient, even when dealing with large sets.
Besides the obvious situations where you might imagine this would be useful, such as blocking long lists of "bad" hosts without worry of killing system resources or causing network congestion, IP sets also open up new ways of approaching certain aspects of firewall design and simplify many configuration scenarios.
In this article, after quickly discussing ipset's installation requirements, I spend a bit of time on iptables' core fundamentals and concepts. Then, I cover ipset usage and syntax and show how it integrates with iptables to accomplish various configurations. Finally, I provide some detailed and fairly advanced real-world examples of how ipsets can be used to solve all sorts of problems.
With significant performance gains and powerful extra features—like the ability to apply single firewall rules to entire groups of hosts and networks at once—ipset may be iptables' perfect match.
Because ipset is just an extension to iptables, this article is as much about iptables as it is about ipset, although the focus is those features relevant to understanding and using ipset.
Getting ipset
ipset is a simple package option in many distributions, and since plenty of other installation resources are available, I don't spend a whole lot of time on that here.
The important thing to understand is that like iptables, ipset consists of both a user-space tool and a kernel module, so you need both for it to work properly. You also need an "ipset-aware" iptables binary to be able to add rules that match against sets.
Start by simply doing a search for "ipset" in your
distribution's package management tool.
There is a good chance you'll be able to find an easy
procedure to install ipset in a turn-key way. In Ubuntu (and
probably Debian), install the ipset and xtables-addons-source
packages. Then, run
module-assistant auto-install
xtables-addons, and
ipset is ready to go in less than 30 seconds.
If your distro doesn't have built-in support, follow the manual installation procedure listed on the ipset home page (see Resources) to build from source and patch your kernel and iptables.
The versions used in this article are ipset v4.3 and iptables v1.4.9.
iptables Overview
In a nutshell, an iptables firewall configuration consists of a set of built-in "chains" (grouped into four "tables") that each comprise a list of "rules". For every packet, and at each stage of processing, the kernel consults the appropriate chain to determine the fate of the packet.
Chains are consulted in order, based on the "direction" of the packet (remote-to-local, remote-to-remote or local-to-remote) and its current "stage" of processing (before or after "routing"). See Figure 1.
Figure 1. iptables Built-in Chains Traversal Order
When consulting a chain, the packet is compared to each and every one of the chain's rules, in order, until it matches a rule. Once the first match is found, the action specified in the rule's target is taken. If the end of the chain is reached without finding a match, the action of the chain's default target, or policy, is taken.
A chain is nothing more than an ordered list of rules, and a rule is nothing more than a match/target combination. A simple example of a match is "TCP destination port 80". A simple example of a target is "accept the packet". Targets also can redirect to other user-defined chains, which provide a mechanism for the grouping and subdividing of rules, and cascading through multiple matches and chains to arrive finally at an action to be taken on the packet.
Every iptables command for defining rules, from the very short to the very long, is composed of three basic parts that specify the table/chain (and order), the match and the target (Figure 2).
Figure 2. Anatomy of an iptables Command
To configure all these options and create a complete firewall configuration, you run a series of iptables commands in a specific order.
iptables is incredibly powerful and extensible. Besides its many built-in features, iptables also provides an API for custom "match extensions" (modules for classifying packets) and "target extensions" (modules for what actions to take when packets match).
Enter ipset
ipset is a "match extension" for iptables. To use it, you create and populate uniquely named "sets" using the ipset command-line tool, and then separately reference those sets in the match specification of one or more iptables rules.
A set is simply a list of addresses stored efficiently for fast lookup.
Take the following normal iptables commands that would block inbound traffic from 188.8.131.52 and 188.8.131.52:
iptables -A INPUT -s 18.104.22.168 -j DROP
iptables -A INPUT -s 18.104.22.168 -j DROP
The match specification syntax
-s 220.127.116.11 above
means "match packets
whose source address is 18.104.22.168". To block both 22.214.171.124 and 18.104.22.168,
two separate iptables rules with two separate match specifications
(one for 18.104.22.168 and one for 18.104.22.168) are defined above.
Alternatively, the following ipset/iptables commands achieve the same result:
ipset -N myset iphash
ipset -A myset 220.127.116.11
ipset -A myset 184.108.40.206
iptables -A INPUT -m set --set myset src -j DROP
The ipset commands above create a new set (
myset of
with two addresses (188.8.131.52 and 188.8.131.52).
The iptables command then references the set with the match specification
-m set --set myset src, which means "match packets whose source header
matches (that is, is contained within) the set named myset".
The flag
src means match on "source".
The flag
dst would match on
"destination", and the flag
src,dst would match on both source and
In the second version above, only one iptables command is required, regardless of how many additional IP addresses are contained within the set. Although this example uses only two addresses, you could just as easily define 1,000 addresses, and the ipset-based config still would require only a single iptables rule, while the previous approach, without the benefit of ipset, would require 1,000 iptables rules.

Learned LOTS from this article, very informative and specially the VPN and NAT part was very usefull to me :D
src,dst flag
The flag src means match on "source". The flag dst would match on "destination", and the flag src,dst would match on both source and destination.
When multiple flags are specified, the effect depends on the type of the set. If the type is for example ipportmap, the source IP and destination port should match the pair in the set. If the set is something like an iphash, only the source should match (unless there is a binding).

Practical Task Scheduling Deployment
On Demand
One of the best things about the UNIX environment (aside from being stable and efficient) is the vast array of software tools available to help you do your job. Traditionally, a UNIX tool does only one thing, but does that one thing very well. For example, grep is very easy to use and can search vast amounts of data quickly. The find tool can find a particular file or files based on all kinds of criteria. It's pretty easy to string these tools together to build even more powerful tools, such as a tool that finds all of the .log files in the /home directory and searches each one for a particular entry. This erector-set mentality allows UNIX system administrators to seem to always have the right tool for the job.
Cron traditionally has been considered another such a tool for job scheduling, but is it enough? This webinar considers that very question. The first part builds on a previous Geek Guide, Beyond Cron, and briefly describes how to know when it might be time to consider upgrading your job scheduling infrastructure. The second part presents an actual planning and implementation framework.

do you see how flawed that way of thinking is?
You do know the Patriots have played in AFC Championship games with worse DB's than they have on the roster now?
Patriots have 10 starters on offense returning next year which was a top 5 offense...
this is comical. are the jets saying that Kraft is making a play for when Revis is a FA in 2018?
this screams that the Jets know they screwed up with Woody's comments in Dec and they're doing...
4/65 with 40mil guaranteed..... that's my guess.
Average out to $16.25/mil per year.
this sells tickets and helps out in the marketing dept and will have very little impact on the heirarchy of the AFCE. the patriots have gone up against the Jets and Buffalo DL the last few years and...
Napoli is in his walk year. Ortiz is just about done. Sandoval can move to DH or 1B and Yoan can play 3B.

wow... i gave it a 5% chance the Sox sign him.
You know members of the media watched the tapes when Goodell had his press conference regarding "spygate". It's not like it's some crazy cover up like nobody got to view them.
didn't the 49ers get caught cheating the salary cap during the Montana era? Wasn't Elway's SB teams caught doing the same thing?
Please get over it HATERS!
Seahawks since Carroll took over as coach has most PED suspensions of any team (not including the one Richard Sherman got off from because of a technicality).
Anyone have a problem with Aaron Rogers liking more air in the balls than what's allowed?
Probably not because then you can't bash the Patriots.
that should be enough for Revis/McCourty/Soldier.
Per Adam Schefter-
In a deal turned into NFL today, Tom Brady restructured his contract to give NE $24 million more in cash to spend.
He goes on to say this money will be used to lock up...
before the signing of Hanley and Sandoval I'm pretty sure the only major committments for Boston after 2015 were Pedroia and Castillo. They had a lot of money coming off the books so from everything...
Boston signed Sandoval 5yr deal!
Let me start by saying i think Rogers is a top 3 QB in the league easily. But anyone handing him the MVP isn't looking at the teams the Packers have beat. When it's all said and done the only team...
I'm 100% convinced they're going to move Cespedes for pitching so move Ramirez to LF?
Wouldn't take them out of Sandoval running either per Alex Speier @ WEEI.
Anyone notice Sandoval retweeting SF fans saying, "thanks for the memories." Anyone reading into it?
Tony Corrente is the best player on the field for Detroit today. How many flags is he going to throw on the Patriots today? I say 12+.... easy!
if you don't think the GG award isn't offense/popularity based you're crazy. Look at the gold gloves jeter won over the years or the best example of this is Rafeal Palmero in 1999. The guy played...
Bradley Jr should have won the AL CF gold glove over Adam Jones.
It's been pretty great watching Revis and Browner these last few weeks and it started a discussion between a few friends and myself. Is Revis back in New England next season on a long term deal?
just like to get people's opinion on TJ Ward going after Gronk's knee again yesterday after knocking him out last season with the same kind of hit. It's obviously tough to know intent of players but...
Tom Brady vs. Jack Del Rio defenses: 9 games, 228/326 (69.9%), 2384 yards (7.3 YPA), 22 TD, 1 INT, 112.1 rating.

A veteran and versatile performer, L.A. Hardy is originally from Cleveland, then was transplanted to Los Angeles, and is now based out of South Florida. A natural actor, he has been seen on MTV, VH1, ABC's According to Jim, and has voice credits in the movie Guess Who with Bernie Mac, and experience in stand-up on BET'sComicView, indie films such as China Dolls, Footsteps, The Good Fight, The Last Angry Black Man, and Universal Remote with Charlie Murphy. L.A. has a face you've seen before and want to see again. He has performed stand-up comedy for the U.S. military and was among the first of a group of comedians to perform in Iraq in August and September of 2003. In 2004, he travelled and entertained the troops in Afghanistan. He has headlined tours worldwide in over 35 countries for the USO, The Department Of Defense, Comics On Duty, and AKA Productions since 1994. L.A.'s comedy is reality-based; he draws his humor from events that have taken place in his life or could happen in yours. A young dad with a wife and two kids, and a strong family base of operations in Las Vegas and Los Angeles, he headlines regularly at clubs, colleges, corporate events and cruise ships. Described by some as the "Black Dr. Phil" because of his real-life observations and no-holds-barred style, he has the ability to make you laugh and reflect while continually entertaining you. A child of the 70s, but a man of today, he has old school sensibilities and an uncanny ability to relate to the new school of comedy.

The Lauren Mitchell Band, featuring front-woman Lauren Mitchell's galvanizing vocals backed by the talents of veteran rock and blues artists, has roared on to the South Florida arts scene with undeniable ferocity. The group was born in 2005 when Lauren Mitchell teamed up with keyboard sensation Mike Hensley to create a sound that celebrated everything they loved about blues, soul, and rock. Since then, the band has incorporated the best talent it can find, to bring audiences a sound that is fresh and exciting. "Part of my goal as a live performer is to leave nothing behind when I take the stage. I want everyone in the audience to feel the way I do about the music we play. If it's a rockin' blues tune, I want to see people dancing in the aisles. If it's a slow, soulful ballad, I have been known to drive grown men to tears. I want my audience to leave feeling as if they've just had a spiritual, "religious" experience; just like I do every time we perform." -Lauren Mitchell

text: I still haven't jumped on the Weather Wars bandwagon. Maybe I will one day. But as it stands now? No weather! This time I decided to focus my weatherless team a bit more. Rather than go Weatherless Balanced (which was admittedly hard to pull off) I'm going a bit more on the offense. Let me know what you guys think, and how it can be improved. :) All changes to the team will be stated in bold. Let's take a look at the team! First up, I had to decide on a win condition. I'd never used Scarf MoxieMence before, so I was bound and determined to have the bruiser on a team. Next I wanted to try out Deoxys-D. I used to have metaphorical allergic reactions to using legendaries. I'm starting to get past that. Deo-D seemed like a great bulky lead and plenty of people suggested using it on a weatherless team. So Deo-D joined the ranks. Next, I needed ways to get rid of steel types and 8r8k H34DS... I mean walls. . So Band Terrakion and Magnezone came to mind. From here, I really wanted to up the offensive pressure of the team. VoltTurn seemed like a great idea, so I thought of Rotom-W...but I already had an electric. Scizor seemed like he'd be a great backup win condition, so I went with Bulky Attacker Rotom-W and Bulky SD Scizor. Magnezone wasn't really working for me, so he had to go. I'd be an moron to let Deo-D's hard work go to waste, so I needed a spin blocker. Someone who can stop the spin, and add craptons of offensive pressure to a team. Someone who can throw off the strategies of entire sets...Of course. Sub Disable Gengar. And thus, we arrive at the current state of things. So here's the breakdown! Deoxys-D @ Rocky Helmet Trait: Pressure EVs: 252 HP / 4 SDef / 252 Spd Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk) - Spikes - Taunt - Stealth Rock - Magic Coat Went with the Speedy Spiker variant. Looking at its stats, I realized this thing has the bulk to survive a few hits without even investing in defensive stats. Stealth Rock + 1 layer of Spikes is usually enough to ensure that Salamence and/or Scizor can complete a full sweep. Taunt shuts down opposing entry hazard layers, and keeps my field clear of Stealth Rocks, with hurt Salamence deeply. Magic Coat is an additional layer of troll. Using Magic Coat ensures that, with proper prediction, I have nothing to worry about from opposing Taunters. Taunt me and I'll Taunt you back. You know the drill. Terrakion @ Choice Band Trait: Justified EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk) - Close Combat - Stone Edge - X-Scissor - Quick Attack I have come to learn that you just don't switch in on CBand Terrakion. You don't. Mons that resist his stabs still take average of 30% damage. He 8r8ks HE4DS. I know Earthquake provides redundant coverage, but I see it similarly to those who run both Outrage + Dragon Claw or Draco Meteor + Dragon Pulse. I enjoyed Earthquake for some time, but came to find Quick Attack useful, although not particularly strong. Having the priority really helps take out weakened threats. His STABs hit like trucks and X-Scissor helps me give Reuniclus headaches. I also use it to give Dark-types a hard time without worry of the predicted Ghost switch in. You switch in, you take damage, Period. Salamence (F) @ Choice Scarf Trait: Moxie EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd Naive Nature (+Spd, -SDef) - Outrage - Dragon Claw - Earthquake - Fire Blast This ridiculous thing is my main win condition. I've watched it sweep so many times it completely uncalled for. Outrage + Dragon Claw, for those times when I don't wanna be locked and unable to switch...or don't want to deal with the confusion. Earthquake to hit Steel switch ins or walk through Fire types. I've learned that Earthquake is a great attack to use once I've removed all the fliers and 'mons with levitate from the opposing team. Fire Blast to hit Scizor and Ferrothorn...because eff those d-bags. Mixed stats are high enough that no Special Attack investment is needed to get a good hit out of Fire Blast. Naive nature to avoid the attack cuts from using anything else that boosts speed. She's not living through an Ice Beam anyway, so screw Special Defense. Clever Girl. Gengar (M) @ Black Sludge Trait: Levitate EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk) - Substitute - Disable - Shadow Ball - Focus Blast Troll. Troll. Troll. Trollmoar. GRAAAHH!! TormenTran's older brother. He blocks the spin, he irritates the soul. This thing will grate on your last nerve, if you aren't prepared for it. Black Sludge is fun for predicting a Trick. Enjoy losing HP. I've had plenty of people get that "eff this thing" feeling when dealing with SubDisable Gengar. Sure, it can be beaten - but you will have a hard time. Rotom-W @ Leftovers Trait: Levitate EVs: 232 HP / 56 SpA / 220 Spe Modest Nature (+SAtk, -Atk) - Volt Switch - Hydro Pump - Will-o-wisp - Pain Split Part one of the VoltTurn combo. Classic pairing, with the ability to neuter threats. Pain Split aids in wallbreaking. Will-O-Wisp stops Scizor, screws with Parahax Jirachi and others. Bulk for taking those hits and returning with a STAB. Hydro Pump because RAIN IS EVERYWHERE. This move hits hard as all crap without the need for heavy investment. Still learning what it does and doesn't outspeed, but Rotom-W has been great. Scizor (F) @ Choice Scarf Trait: Technician EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe Jolly Nature (+Spd, -SAtk) - U-Turn - Iron Head - Superpower - Aerial Ace Scizor's set has completely changed since I started this team. Some posters pointed out a huge weakness to Starmie, so I went with this set. Scarfing him may lower the power, but he now checks offensive Starmie pretty well, along with other Psychics. Went Iron Head instead of Bullet Punch, due to the increase in speed from Scarf. I may change back, but still testing. Aerial Ace helps me out alot against fighting types and grass types, specifically causes headaches for the unsuspecting Breloom. Superpower to shut down the non-scarfed Heatrans and other things expecting to be able to outspeed and roast my Scizor. U-Turn maintains the ability to keep offensive pressure - actually does so a little better now that he can outspeed alot of common counters. So, this is the crew! Let me know what I can do to improve it. I'm always looking for constructive criticism as I get better and better with this whole team building thing. :) Importable (Move your mouse to reveal the content) Importable (open) Importable (close) Deoxys-D @ Rocky Helmet Trait: Pressure EVs: 252 HP / 4 SDef / 252 Spd Timid Nature - Spikes - Taunt - Stealth Rock - Magic Coat Terrakion @ Choice Band Trait: Justified EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd Jolly Nature - Close Combat - Stone Edge - X-Scissor - Quick Attack Salamence (M) @ Choice Scarf Trait: Moxie EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd Naive Nature - Outrage - Dragon Claw - Earthquake - Fire Blast Gengar (F) @ Black Sludge Trait: Levitate EVs: 4 HP / 252 SAtk / 252 Spd Timid Nature - Substitute - Disable - Shadow Ball - Focus Blast Rotom-W @ Leftovers Trait: Levitate EVs: 232 HP / 56 SAtk / 220 Spd Modest Nature - Volt Switch - Hydro Pump - Will-O-Wisp - Pain Split Scizor (F) @ Choice Scarf Trait: Technician EVs: 252 Atk / 4 SDef / 252 Spd Jolly Nature - U-turn - Iron Head - Superpower - Aerial Ace

Confirmed: Geoff Johns Is the New President of DC Entertainment
Comic Books, Film, TV
Huh, now this looks familiar … a graphic novel called 400 BC recently came across the Comic Book Resources review desk. Here's the cover:
The book, originally published by a company called Campfire in India and set to be published by Random House in the United States in May, is about 10,000 Greek soldiers invading Persia and things not going so well. Which is a completely different story from 300 soldiers defending their homes against the Persians, like in Frank Miller's 300:
So we're talking about two separate events — 300 happened circa 480 BC, while 400 BC is obviously set 80 years later.
And yet … it's hard not to get a "Huh, that seems like an obvious swipe" vibe from the title, logo and cover. You'd think they might have gone a little bit farther to differentiate it from 300, either by going with a different name, or at the very least go with a different font and color for the logo. What do you think?
When asked, Dark Horse had no comment.
I don't see that much similarity.
It's just another retelling of Greek history with a cover that makes the reader think it's about Greek history.
Books and movies do this all the time: trying to ride the tailcoats of a similer and more successful property. Not saying it's a bad thing, but I have no doubt this was intentional. And they should have to change it. It's purposefully misleading. Actually, maybe it is a bad thing.
Yeah, those guys are gonna be in trouble when Frank Miller whips out that legal document signed by the ancient Greeks and Persians saying he's their exclusive biographer.
I see this sort of rip on dvd covers all the time. Forget what movie it was but there was an even more blatant swipe of the 300 dvd cover…
MAJOR FAIL! Who ever wrote this article knows NOTHING about Copyrights or Trademarks. HACK!
This article said absolutely nothing about Copyrights nor Trademarks. The comment was about swipes, which this obviously is. And don't call people hacks, especially when JK Parkin is writing articles and you're writing (incorrectly, might I add) on a message board.
Blood is red. War is red. What color would you use that would "pop" the same way?
As for "300", it's more like 1400+ ("300 Spartans, 700 Thespians, 400 Thebans and perhaps a few hundred others" -Wikipedia)
That's a hoplite on the Campfire cover, a generic Greek soldier of the age. Sparta did supply soldiers for the mercenary armies depicted in "400 BC".
Compare that cover to the ACTUAL book cover for 300:
There's not much similarity.
Yeah, it's ancient Greece.
The wars are 80 years apart. Historically, that's pretty close. Technology won't change much, unlike say the difference between World War I and the Persian Gulf War. However, the Greco-Persian Wars ended in 449 B.C.
Then there were the Peloponnesian Wars (431 – 404 BC). Greeks fighting each other. A big historical event.
By the time of 400 B.C., Athens was fighting against Sparta, and the Persians were biding their time… which would come in 387 B.C., when the Spartans signed a peace treaty with the Persians to end the Corinthian War and place Sparta as the ruling power in Greece.
300 [sic] is about an heroic last stand against an overwhelming opponent: 1400+ vs. 100,000 – 300,000 soldiers.
400 BC is about a revolt in Persia and the Greek mercenaries who fought on the side opposed to the Persian king. Once their employer (the king's younger brother) was killed in battle, the mercenaries had no boss, no food, no pay, no friends, no reason to fight. Xenophon chronicles the retreat of the 10,000, which is the basis for this book. It's a bit like Napoleon in Russia.
Is it a swipe? Not when the actual covers are compared. Are they similar? Sure. Ancient Greek military history. Greeks and Persians fighting each other.
Had Campfire depicted the Battle of Marathon or Plataea, then there might be criticism for riding coattails.
Although their stories are very different, Supreme is still a swipe of Superman. The Midnighter is still a swipe of Batman. And 400 is still a swipe of 300.
Similar subject, different approach.
They're selling it in the UK now, so it must be on the level. See the following link for pictures:
I must say, it looks pretty good actually. I thought it would look a lot worse.
Actually, Supreme was a deconstruction of Superman. Some of the covers might have been swipes/homages.
Same with Midnighter. Archetypes and analogs.
Superman, with his "Fortress of Solidarity" in the recent issue, seems to be a rather blatant swipe of the "Supremacy" seen in the early Alan Moore issues of Supreme.
"Swipe" … http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swipe_(comics) … usually refers to artwork copied completely… no change of viewpoint, figure, or layout. Given the design of the actual book from Frank Miller, this is rather unlikely.
Now… "knockoffs"… that's producing something similar to profit off of the popularity of a specific title.
Since 300 was published back in 1999, the movie in 2006, I doubt there's any such intent. Especially when both are based on historical, not fictional, events. Campfire produces many classical graphic novels, both from literature and from history. "Sword and sandals" epics have always been popular, because it's just a shield and a weapon (usually a sword, although spears were more useful) with minimal armor.
JK, did you read the Campfire GN? Any similarities inside? Or were you just jumping to conclusions based on the title and cover?
I have to go with Torsten on this issue. In fact, the sci-fi channel showed a movie last night called 'The Terminators'. Mr James Cameron had nothing to do with it, but it's there for all to see on the sci-fi channel.
And man! What are you doing calling Dark Horse?
Please, become a police informant. The cops will pay better:)
Well, if it is set in 400BC – then it's gotta be an adaptation of the Anabasis, right?
That would be the ancient text that inspired the classic 1979 movie 'The Warriors'.
According to a reviewer on imdb.com: "it was widely known back in the day that The Warriors was based on the ancient Greek nonfiction tale Anabasis, written around 370 BC by the Spartan general Xenophon (it's also published under the title The Persian Expedition). In this classic tale, a battalion of 10,000 Spartan mercenaries join the Persian emperor Cyrus for a war in Asia Minor (i.e. Turkey). Cyrus's army is defeated, the Spartan leaders are captured, and the remaining force must make their way across country, fighting various hostile tribes along the way, experiencing their own internal power struggles, until they reach the safety of the sea. I'm shocked that only one reviewer seemed to be familiar with this; in the 70s almost nobody talked about the movie without mentioning it."
If it is the same story, I don't see how copyright could be applied to a text that is obviously very old. I do remember that they were going to make a '300' style movie out of the Anabasis story – that must have been in a cash in on 300.
Sure, this is probably a cash in on a successful product – but a lot of movies copied the Matrix when it was successful. If you make a movie with a shark in it – everyone is going to compare it with Jaws.
Where do you draw the line?

AHAM Collaborates On Household Portable, Floor Care Appliance Sustainability Standards
Tuesday August 26th, 2014 - 12:07PM
These are shortcuts to your favorite social networking and bookmark sites. Add this story to your Facebook page, del.icio.us, DiggIt, and many others!
The Association of Home Appliance Manufacturers, CSA Group, and UL Environment today announced the release of AHAM 7002-2014/CSA SPE-7002-14/UL 7002, Sustainability Standard for Household Portable and Floor Care Appliances, the first voluntary sustainability standard to cover those appliances. The newest is the third in a family of product sustainability standards under development by AHAM, CSA Group, and UL.
Manufacturers, governments, retailers and others can use the standards to identify environmentally responsible products, the associations asserted in a statement. The standard is based on a lifecycle approach for identifying the environmental impacts of household portable and floor care appliances in six key areas: materials, manufacturing and operations, energy consumption during use, end-of-life, consumables and innovation.
The organizations noted that they expect to publish sustainability standards for dishwashers, conventional cooking products, microwave ovens and clothes dryers in 2014 and 2015.
In creating the development process, the organizations engaged a cross-section of stakeholders, including the United States Environmental Protection Agency, Environment Canada, The Sustainability Consortium, Consumer's Union, environmental groups such as the Carbon Disclosure Project, and retailers such as Sears, Best Buy, and Lowe's to help ensure that the household portable and floor care appliance standard is credible and compatible with existing government and retailer initiatives.
"AHAM is very pleased that its collaboration with CSA Group and UL has resulted in another sound tool for measuring the sustainability of a portable or floor care appliance. This work represents the home appliance industry's strong commitment to sustainability. Our work will continue on new standards for other products," said Joseph McGuire, president of AHAM, in announcing the standard release.

Golf clubs have been used to kill snakes, arm bump-hearing homeowners in the skinny hours of the night and get cats out from under cars.
But the way Tiger Woods' wife, Elin, used a golf club to allegedly free her husband from his wrecked Cadillac Escalade has to go down as the most famous non-golf use of one ever.
These would be next on the list:
2) Jack Nicholson, using a 3-iron, repeatedly whacks the 1969 Mercedes of a Mr. Robert S. Blank in the Toluca Lake section of Los Angeles in 1994. Nicholson had suggested that Mr. Blank had cut him off. Mr. Blank responded by locking all his car doors. Nicholson followed that by beating on the roof of the car numerous times, then moving to the front of the vehicle, where he shattered the windshield. There is no evidence that Nicholson was trying to free Mr. Blank from the vehicle.
3) Bob Hope's twirling of a wood as he entertained at nearly all 199 of his USO shows, beginning in 1942. In homage, Stephen Colbert did the same during his trip this year to Iraq.
4) Playing at the $40 million Trump International Golf Club in Florida in 2000, guest Harry Wagner is allegedly attacked by a six-foot black swan. The swan was one of four given to Trump by a friend, though one of the four was eaten by an alligator by then. Mr. Wagner is holding a 5-iron and whacks the bird until it's more than dead, claiming self-defense.
5) The future king of England, William, then 8, is knocked loopy by a classmate swinging a putter during supervised play at the school's putting green. (What? Your elementary school didn't have a putting green?) William is taken to a hospital, where he undergoes a 70-minute operation to push out the dent in his skull and remove bone splinters. As the operation proceeds, Prince Charles, his father, attends an opera.
6) At the 1997 MCI Classic, PGA Tour golfer Woody Austin misses a 30-foot putt and becomes so angry at himself that he slams the putter's shaft into his head five times, bending it.
The shaft, that is.
Not to give Mrs. Woods any ideas.

After deleting and re-adding this plugin since I started to get some errors and saw the update, all of my attributes are gone even though my categories are still there.
Thats what happens when you use the 'uninstall' function in WordPress. Your data is uninstalled (logically).
" (logically) "...Well actually the terms have shown up once I manually re-added the same attribute names. It leaves the product post type and it's categories. As well as the terms were still retrievable so I'm not sure why it wouldn't remember the attributes that were assigned to the products that it left there. I deleted it to fix this problem , which it did.
Many plugins are uninstalled but retrieve the same settings once reinstalled. Plugins have to be uninstalled at times when flukes happen or for testing. I'm sure alot of people have to reinstall the whole thing for whatever reasons. Sometimes plugins have options on uninstall to remove all data ( which usually it still remembers the settings) or not. Other times there's an export option for the plugins data. I'm surprised if you're saying this was supposed to remove everything and doesn't give a warning that a store owner should backup. Glad it didn't work out that way.
Similar: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/21-release-is-a-disaster?replies=9
After you clicked 'Delete' in the plugins overview for the WooCommerce plugin, it prompts you with the following question:
Are you sure you wish to delete these files and data?
The button that you then clicked on has the following label:
Yes, Delete these files and data
The 'data' word implies that it does delete your data, in addition to removing the files. This is how WordPress actually recommends plugins to do this, so I'm sorry this wasn't clear to you.

Hi there,
I came across this issue when I copied the shortcode (listed on the settings page) into my php:
<?php echo do_shortcode('[fbcomments][fbcomments url="http://3doordigital.com/wordpress/plugins/facebook-comments/" width="375" count="off" num="3" countmsg="wonderful comments!"]'); ?>
To resolve this, just remove the 2nd fbcomments, so it should look like this: <?php echo do_shortcode('[fbcomments]'); ?>
You may need to turn off the display options to disable the auto hooking into the post/page.
Hope this helps.
