7:00 pm
quickly lost another 50 points and closed down 1.9%, the worst one-day drop since november of last year. the vicks or volatility index, also known as the fear index, also jumped and ended the day up over 40%. the day didn't start out much better. gold and other commodities dropped big at the open. gold in particular, down 10%. its worst one-day decline in 30 years. other commodity stocks like mital, tinto or cliffs natural resources were also weak. defensive names like walmart were also done, but fared better. the main catalyst for the sell off was concerns about slower global growth. china reported gdp for the first quarter below expectations. with europe in recession, trader rs now worried where is the growth going to come from.
7:01 pm
i'm bob pisani at the new york stock exchange. >> as bob just mentioned, the price of gold plunged today, recording its second worst loss ever and closing below $1400 an ounce for the time in more than two years. today was the first time ever that the dow and price of spot gold both recorded triple digit losses. why is selloff and what may be next for the precious metal? jackie deangelis has our report. >> another massive selloff in the gold market today, but what's fuelling the fur rouse rotation? several factors are at play including the continued strength in the equity market. gold had lost its luster, but gold is also an inflation hedge and as long as the fed continues with its stimulus program, investors believe inflation is likely to remain in check. >> people thought the price of gold was a good hedge against stock market moves and forgot that the price of gold really is
7:02 pm
an inflationary hedge and then you buy gold to preserve purchasing power. while we're not seeing the signs of inflation because commodity prices have not risen. interest rates have remained low, so the cost of commodities have not really gone u. >> but there's more to the story. part of bullion's breakdown is due to the cent strength in the u.s. dollar. >> if the dollar is strong, it becomes very expensive for people who do not have dollars to buy gold. >> meantime, troubles in europe are weighing on the precious metal as well. it's believed that cyprus may need to sell some gold to help cover its deficit. whale analysts don't feel it would have a huge impact on the overall market, they worry it sets a precedent for other troubled countries. while others believe gold will rebound, the thought is that the pile on selling doesn't last.
7:03 pm
>> the chances are that it will go up and down for a few weeks around then stabilize and the buyers will then step in. >> while some are worried about how the decline might impact their pension plans, it usually tends to be a small percentage of a diversified portfolio. the decline might be balanced out by gains in equities and there's even a silver lining. for those in the market to buy the commodity itself or gold jewelry, this could be a time to jump in. >> that tumble in gold prices also prompted a rare retraction from bill gross. the founder and co-chief investment officer of pimco. at a barrens magazine event last month, he predicted prices wouldn't move much unless real interest deklaclined further or expectations rose higher.
7:04 pm
neither happened. today, he tweeted, okay, so, i made a bad call. i would still buy gold here, end quote. >> joining us now to make sense maybe of today's big sell off in commodities and stocks, the chief market strategist of c convergis. you think there's a dramatic furn for those right now, don't you? >> i do. let's start with gold. gold has been a major inflation hedge, however, with the threats of many central banks in europe having to sell a bit of their gold holding, i think investors are worried about a lot of supply coming to the market. cyprus is just a teeny bit of it. you have portugal, spain, france, italy, who have tons of gold in their vaults and any part of that comes out, there's going to be a lot of supply. >> nick, a lot of investors tonight are scratching their heads saying, what happened? all these past couple of weeks
7:05 pm
and months, there have been new records on wall street and all the stock averages and they've been told the
is doing great, so what's changed? you know, what's changed is that we got a little complacent. i think everybody looks at the market and says we weren't really fulling gauging what might happen if the
slows down or doesn't speed up. i think today was just the wreck reckoning for a lot of those concerns. >> we've been in a period where people are expecting a correction from whatever highs we've been hitting here lately. do you think this is the beginning of that correction right now? >> i think we're certainly seeing a bit of a correction. i don't know how much more it has tooz, however, because fundamentally, we have very low interest rates and u.s. corporations are still posting record high levels of earnings against the backdrop of a weak global
. if we get a big downdraft from whatever happens out of boston or some other factor, that's a
7:06 pm
real risk factor, but near term, very strong earnings, hard to argue with stocks with that backdrop. >> you just mexed the boston marathon incident. we doebt have the complete story on that tragedy, but events like that do impact investor psychology. how much? >> that's right. really two factors to focus on. first, what effect does it have on consumer confidence? first question, how does it affect consumer spending, psychology. the broader issue is more nebulous. what are the geopolitical ramifications of the event. we've had examples over the past 20 years, oklahoma city or 9/11, some have very profound impacts on geopolitical impacts and the
and some not as much. >> since the woes of last year, there's been a mind set of investors to buy the dips.
7:07 pm
as the market comes lower, they step in and see an opportunity to buy. now, we've had a pretty good selloff in the past couple of days and so far, nobody's stepping in. do you think they will or should they at that point? >> you know, i think in terms of thinking about how to invest and over what time frame you are investing, if you're investing for a three or five-year horizon or longer, ultimate you focus on the fact that corporate earnings are strong. if you're a trader or if you have seen the action over the past couple of days and it scares you and you think you're overexposed to equitieequities, probably is time to take some off the table because you're overexposed and your risk comfort is out of reality. >> nick, you have a standard asset allocation. 60% stocks and you really don't change it. whether stocks are going up or down. what is your advice to investors? what should they do right now,
7:08 pm
just sit tight? >> yeah, 60-40 is a very solid split. it maximizes return and minimizes volatility. if you have seen the action over the past few days and you're comfortable, it makes sense to sit. a lot of your viewers are probably sitting on some sizable gains over the past few years. for those investors, i would recommend paring back on equi equiti equities. >> nick, the chief market strategist at convergis. thank you. >> shares of sprint were as good as gold today, shooting up nearly 14%, easily making it the biggest gainer in the s&p 500. the reason, dish network is offering to buy sprint for $25 billion and this is the second takeover bid for the wireless phone carrier. julia borsen has more. >> sprint is at the center of a
7:09 pm
takeover battle. today, dish, offering to buy the company to trump the proposal from softbank. dish saying the offer is a superior alternative. a 13% premium to softbank's $20 billion bid to buy 70% of sprint. the chairman saying quote, a transformtive merger will create the only company that can offer customers the fully integrated nationwide bundle. he is trying to push dish from the slower growing pay tv business into the faster growing wireless industry and to break the mold of his pay tv rivals like directv and comcast. the bid comes at a time of consolidation in the wire redskins industry and growth in the broad band business. he wants to offer a wireless alternative by making this deal
7:10 pm
with sprint, which he says is well positioned to offer wi-fi in dense areas. a bold move in a competitive landscape that raised concerns for some analysts. >> on the one hand, capital dish would be spending everything they have in order to acquire sprint. they then don't have the capital to invest in sprint and extract all the value they would have amassed. the second thing is operating skill. they don't have a track record in wireless. >> now the ball is in sprint's court. softbank could make a kounts offer and the dish snags sprint, it will push all the pay tv providers to find new ways to distinguish their bundle. >> also from the wireless phone industry today, the board at metro pcs, the nation's fifth largest carrier, has approved an amended takeover bid from rival t emotional and is urging shareholders to okay the deal. >> coming up, the one big bank
7:11 pm
earnings report you need to watch this week, but first, a look at how the international markets closed today. despite the selloff in the stock market today, there were still some bright spots.
7:12 pm
thermo fisher scientific, a maker of lab equipment, is buying life technologies which makes gene sequencing machines. they finished down 1%, but life technologies jumped to $73 a share. glaxosmithkline touched an all time high after the food and drug administration gave a better than expect ed review of an experimental treatment for lung disease. this could open the way for approval when the new treatment will be reviewed by an fda panel on wednesday. gsk gained 1.5% to $49 a share. >> as the media space reshapes itself, btig research began coverage of netflix with a $250 per share price. noted that the service is being offered as part of internet bundles as well as cable providers, rich greenfield said netflix has an improved price
7:13 pm
relationship. netflix gained about 2% on an otherwise down day today. energy was the worst performing sector today as oil dropped below $89 a barrel. the blue chip oil, they were near the bottom of the dow. each down about 3% in today's trade. >> solid quarterly earnings from charles schaub, but missed by a penny a share. partly because the firm weighed fees on money market funds. shares tumbled almost 4% to $16 a share. >> and on a day that saw share of nearly every bank or financial firm lower, citigroup shares bucked that trend, rising a fraction higher after beatinging analyst estimates last quarter, chalking up a profit of $4 billion by pulling more revenue and setting aside less funds for bad loans. >> now that citigroup has
7:14 pm
reported its latest result joining wells fargo and jpmor n jpmorgan, investors are waiting to hear from one more huge bank and that one may reveal more about the health of the banking s sector more than any other lender. kayla tell ls us which bank and why as we begin a new series this week, "earnings spotlight." >> for bank of america, it's been a year of reckoning. lawsuits put behind it, the stock doubles and after years of pushback from regulators, capital is finally being returned to shareholders. earlier this month, b of a took advantage of this good news with an ad campaign. reconnecting with customers. but the biggest test comes wednesday. jpmorgan and wells fargo reported last week, showing some first quarter weakness. the reason, the mortgage boom going quiet. homeowners once rushing to refinance at low rates boosting bank's loan volume and canceling
7:15 pm
out thin margins. now, a thing of the past. wednesday will show how much boa has a stake there. then there's expenses. dig into $8 billion of cost cuts, thousands of layoffs. jeff hart is looking for progress in one specific area. >> big thing for bank of america is how quickly can they get the problem loan mortgage servicing portfolio down. that's an important part of taking bank of america where it is now to where i think it should and will be as one of the more efficient banks in the country. >> hart says the banks should benefit from more companies selling stocks and bonds in the first quarter. a surprise positive for citigroup and wells fargo with franchises far less developed than b of a. investor expectations are high, a welcome change for a bank with a troubled past. >> i think bank of america has been executing on their plan for
7:16 pm
a good year now, coming off bottom and proving their capital ratios, talking out costs and the investment bank has performed well. >> the question, whether the momentum can continue. for nightly business report, i'm kayla toshi. >> tomorrow, our earning spotlight series continues when we highlight the one tech report to watch. still ahead tonight, rising home prices, strong demand, even bidding wars. is this what the healthy housing recovery looks like? but first, let's take another look at commodities.
7:17 pm
shares of home builders got hammered today along with the rest of the market after homebuilder sentiment fell in april for the third month in a row. the nnhb wells fargo index slid to a reading of 42 down from 44 last month. the index also fell below economists expectations. builders say they're worried about getting hold of construction loans and rising costs for materials. but our next guest is slugging off today's down beat report. he says the housing recovery remains robust. here to tell us why, jed, chief economist at trulia. this is a real estate with
7:18 pm
website. so, we are getting mixed reports. some places, home prices are up. a lot of demand, other markets, just the opposite. is this a regional housing recovery? >> we're seeing the recovery strongest in two types of markets. marks that have strong job growth like san francisco, seattle, denver. but we're also seeing strong price increases in places that were hit hard in the housing bust. places that saw big price declines line phoenix, vegas and detroit. >> i was in los angeles over the weekend and the lead story of the los angeles on sunday was a bubble market where there are options happening once again for homes being sold there, mainly because of a dirth of supply. >> inventory is very tight, especially in california, but across the country. a few reasons for that. first of all, prices bottomed about a year ago and nobody wants to sell at the bottom, but everyone wants to buy at the bottom, so people who have the choice may be waiting to sell
7:19 pm
until the prices are higher. construction levels are still are low, even though they're up from where they were at the worst point of the bust, construction still way below normal level and not keeping up with the rate of household formation. >> there are still a lot of homes in the foreclosure process and at some point, they're going to be put on the market. what is that going to do to business demand, home prices? what happens? >> that foreclosure backlog is now pretty localized. in places like florida, new york, new jersey and illinois, there's a large shadow of inventory of foreclosed homes. not in midweost of the rest of country. the foreclosures take very long to go through the process and therefore, a big backlog. >> interest rates, a key component in this and the fed has a lot to say about that. by keeping long rates low, mortgage rates are still near record lows right now. houchl longer do you think that
7:20 pm
lasts? >> rate rs still near historic lows. most expect rates to go up, between now and a year from now. the biggest effect that will have is on refinancing. it will have smaller effect on home purchases because so many go into a decision on whether to buy or rent. even if rates went up two full points, it would still be cheaper to buy than to rent. >> if you're a buyer, do you buy now when the prices are still low and if you're a seller, do you hold out because maybe prices are going to go up? >> it's definitely seller's market. inventory is very tight and now the that the
is recovering, there are many buyers that are interested. the challenge for buyers is even if they can halt back for mortgage and have enough for a down payment, there's not much to choose from. buyers want to jump in before prices and help prices raise
7:21 pm
further might have more to choose from and have to settle. >> lenders, we are told, have still been pretty tight. not as loose as they were before the debacles of 2009. are they lending as much as they could be right now? >> right now, the average credit score, people are getti inting mortgages is still high. the average down payment is still higher than it typically is. that reflects the fact that lending is still tight. it's very hard for people to borrow more than they can afford. those tight standards are one of the things that's preventing us from getting back into bubble territory. we'll have to see if some of these new mortgage rules, this toxic lending that we saw during the bubble has a big impact on mortgage credit. >> a lot to think about. we really appreciate. the chief economist at trulia. it's a different market depending on where you live.
7:22 pm
>> the old sayinging, all real estate is local and we can talk all we want about national trends in real estate. i think it's clear that the housing market is recovering, but there are so many factors that go into it. certain regions that are the hardest hit may bounce back quicker. >> those auctions and bidding wars make it tough for people who want to buy. >> i went through that process in los angeles years ago. finally tonight, just a friendly reminder, it is tax day. a new study from a group called the national taxpayer advocate using confidential tax data for being most likely to fudge on their returns. some of the hot bed areas, los angeles, san francisco, houston, atlanta and washington, d.c. and some of the top small businesses that raise red flags are construction companies, real estate rental firms because they tend to write off so much. so, there's so much going on
7:23 pm
there, that we have to keep an eye on those tax cheats. >> first, you got to file your taxes. >> and hurry up. you've got until midnight. thanks for watching. >> i'm bill griffin. have a great evening. we'll see you tomorrow. daniel mansergh:

BEIJING -- Light-flyweight Zou Shiming and
light-heavyweight Zhang Xiaoping won semifinal places on a
wild night Tuesday to give China a guarantee three
Olympic boxing medals.
Zou, who won bronze in Athens, and Zhang are both
guaranteed at least a bronze with their wins Tuesday.
The 10,000 fans in the Workers' Gymnasium cheered on their
men with deafening roars and were thrilled to see Zou and Zhang
outpoint Birzhan Zhakypov and Abdelhafid
Benchabla, respectively.
Wearing golden boots, Zou struggled at first but gradually
gained confidence, displaying nice footwork and great accuracy
to win a 9-4 decision.
"They are specially made for me. I like the color," he
said of his boots.
Before getting a chance to win a medal of the same color,
he will have to face Paddy Barnes, who ended Ireland's
eight-year wait for an Olympic medal when he outpointed
Poland's Lukasz Maszczyk 11-5.
"Just getting through to fight him is like a gold medal for
me," said Barnes, who lost to Zou in the quarterfinals of last
year's world championships in Chicago.
The raucous fans had another party later in the session
when Zhang was challenged by Benchabla at first but then
stepped up a few gears to end the fight 12-7 up on the
Tajikistan's Dzhakhon Kurbanov was disqualified for biting
Kazakh Yerkebulan Shynaliyev in their light-heavyweight
quarter-final. Kurbanov had been regarded as one of the
favourites for the title.
Ireland had a good night with not only Barnes but also
light-heavyweight Kenny Egan advancing by outpointing Brazil's
Washington Silva to make the last four, where he will face
Briton Tony Jeffries.
Like China and Ireland, Britain will get at least two
medals after Jeffries outclassed Hungary's Imre Szello to
follow super-heavyweight David Price through to the
"We'd been working on the tactics all week and tonight they
were spot on," said Jeffries. "I dedicated the last two years
of my life to get a medal. This is the proudest moment of my
The lightweights were also in action with favorite Alexey
Tishchenko advancing easily, relying on his superior hand speed
to outpoint Colombia's Darleys Perez 13-5.
Russia's Tishchenko, who moved up after winning
featherweight gold in Athens, next faces Hrachik Javakhyan of
Armenia. Javakhyan made sure of a medal when his scheduled
quarter-final opponent, South Korea's Baik Jong-sub, pulled out

|Dick Winters with Cole C. Kingseed.
In war, great commanders lead soldiers into hell to do the impossible. They were called Easy Company--but their mission was never easy. Immortalized as the Band of Brothers, they suffered 150 percent casualties while liberating Europe, an unparalleled record of bravery under fire. Dick Winters was their commander, "the best combat leader in World War II" to his men. This is his story, told in his own words for the first time. On D-Day, Dick Winters parachuted into France and assumed leadership of the Band of Brothers when their commander was killed. He led them through the Battle of the Bulge, the attack on Foy--where Easy Company reached its breaking point--and into Germany, by which time each member had been wounded. Neither a protest against war nor a glamorization of combat, this is a moving tribute to the human spirit by a man who earned the love and respect of the men of Easy Company and the adulation of new generations worldwide.

Here's the info I'm trying to break up into a database. I'm going to be using this only for my own use to analyse statistics and all that. I have been manually doing it with Excel but I'd like to save myself some work in future.

Any idea how to scrape that info or easily convert it to excel format? I know a bit of php and mysql, but nothing about JSON and very little about scraping (I tried messing with SIMPLE_HTML_DOM).

Pizza Man, which was destroyed in a January 2010 fire, would reopen by early summer if the plan also wins Common Council zoning approval, said architect Matt Rinka, of Rinka Chung Architecture Inc., which designed the renovations. »Read Full Article(3)
Matchbox Twenty keeps the customer satisfied
Rob Thomas made a promise early in Matchbox Twenty's Milwaukee set Saturday, to give the audience "the best tonight you could possibly have."
But for a significant portion of the two-hour set at the Riverside Theater, Thomas, his three Matchbox bandmates and two touring musicians didn't appear to live in the moment as much as in the past, specifically back in the late '90s and early aughts when the band's barely impactful but catchy pop rock were a resounding soundtrack of the era. »Read Full Article(6)

Ecological patterns and processes operate at a variety of spatial scales. Those which are regional in nature may not be effectively captured through the combination of conservation plans derived at the local level, where land use planning frequently takes place. Conversely, regional conservation plans may not identify resources important for conservation of intraregional ecological variation. We compare modeled conservation networks derived at regional and local scales from the same area in order to analyze the impact of scale effects on conservation planning. Using the MARXAN reserve selection algorithm and least cost corridor analysis we identified a potential regional conservation network for the Central Valley ecoregion of California, USA, from which we extracted those portions found within five individual counties. We then conducted the same analysis for each of the five counties. An overlay of the results from the two scales shows a general pattern of large differences in the identified networks. Especially noteworthy are the trade-offs and omissions evident at both scales of analysis and the disparateness of the identified corridors that connect core reserves. The results suggest that planning efforts limited to one scale will neglect biodiversity patterns and ecological processes that are important at other scales. An intersection of results from the two scales can potentially be used to prioritize areas for conservation found to be important at several spatial scales.

I had an interesting thought: Would it be somewhat possible to increase download speed (and potentially upload speed) like a download accelerator does, but using a socks proxy that splits your traffic over 10 concurrent SSH tunnels? It wouldn't have to be too sophisticated due to the nature of how this would work; you could simply have a program split the packets(?) over each tunnel with a SOCKS proxy frontend. In theory, it should work nicely. Is there anything out there that does this?
A tunnel encapsulates IP traffic inside another IP packet, which incurs additional bytes of traffic to transmit and receive. As well, on either side of the tunnel, traffic will incur delays as it's wrapped and unwrapped. Oh, and since traffic through a tunnel has a smaller MTU, additional overhead is incurred here as well. So, I cannot think of a situation where this would provide an speed advantage.

If you're a fan of high school volleyball, then the First United Bank Center was the place to be Saturday evening.
That's where the top senior volleyball players in the area gathered to display their talents one last time at the high school level in the Fourth Annual Golden Spread Volleyball All-Star Series.
The 32 players made up four teams. The East and West teams secured victories in their opening-round matches, setting up a North vs. South showdown in the consolation match, with the North squeezing out a five-game 25-22, 27-25, 23-25, 24-26, 15-6 win.
The South tied the match with a Game 4 win led by Kirsten McCowan of Tascosa, who scored six consecutive points on four kills and a block.
The North recovered in Game 5, storming out to a big lead with big kills from Christina Steinkruger of Bushland and Palo Duro's Kalinda Graves.
"We were all really tired after that fourth game, and we just told each other that we needed to go out there and win it," said Callie Schneiderjan of Dalhart. "Luckily we got it done quickly and got it over with."
The North was led offensively by Bushland's Kirsten Beasley and Dumas' Alison Bonner, who racked up 14 and 11 kills, respectively.
Randall's Alyssa Sheen led the South with 36 assists, while Stephanie Fowler of Bushland had a match-high 22 digs.
"This was a lot of fun, and the competition was great," Schneiderjan said. "I definitely felt a little rusty because the last time I touched a volleyball was the end of the season, but I had a great time with the girls on my team.
''I'm not used to playing against girls from the big schools, so that was a different experience."

Co-Sourcing Improves Pharmaceutical Laboratory Productivity

Stason Pharmaceuticals has negotiated nonexclusive worldwide rights to use Lonza's GS (glutamine Syntetase) Gene Expression System™. The agreement means Stason and its Stonsa Biopharm partner can use the GS System for the manufacture and commercialization of therapeutic and diagnostic products based on the TNT (Tissue Necrosis Therapy) platform for generating chimeric and fully human TNT antibodies. Stonsa Biopharm is a spin-out established by Stason and Taiwanese firm Standard Chem and Pharm, to commercialize TNT technologies worldwide.
Stason negotiated exclusive development and commercialization rights to Peregrine Pharmaceuticals' TNT platform in May. The technology is based on the development of recombinant mAbs that target intracellular antigens in necrotic tissues. The deal gives Stason exclusive rights to the TNT technologies in certain Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) countries. Peregrine retained exclusive rights to the platform in the U.S., EU, and other designated territories internationally. Stason will pursue drug development, clinical trial, and commercialization activities in its exclusive APEC territories, and both Stason and Peregrine will have the right to initiate new research activities worldwide.
Stason claims the TNT technology has demonstrated broad-spectrum therapeutic and diagnostic potential in a range of solid tumors. It lead product, Cotara®, is a chimeric TNT mAb conjugated to the Iodine-131 radioisotope, which is currently undergoing Phase I and II evaluation in India and the U.S. for the treatment of gliobastoma multiforme. The product has also been evaluated in a Phase I study in combination with intravenous therapy for advanced colon cancer, and together with radioablation therapy.
Cotara targets necrotic cells residing at the core of solid tumors. It transports and binds the radioactive iodine to the center of the tumor, allowing the radiation to destroy the tumor from the inside out, Peregrine claims. The firm says survival benefits for recurrent glioblastoma multiforme patients receiving Cotara therapy have been demonstrated in clinical trials, which have to date shown a median overall survival of between 38 and 41 weeks in patients with GBM treated using Cotara at first relapse. This compares with an expected 24-week median survival in this patient population

Could Ali Get Away With This Against Wlad?

Re: Could Ali Get Away With This Against Wlad?
This thread is a joke. A pretty funny one.
Wlad is suddenly a better athlete than Ali!
Ali has never faced an athlete like Wlad? Ha.ha.ha. Ken Norton was x2 times the pure athlete and boxer that Wlad was hands down...but look at these idiots who want to believe different..
Frazier suddenly has 'bad defense'
Thats rich...
Joe Bugner is suddenly a 'part time boxer' and being counted-out.. Bugner fought from his teenage years out far past his prime in the best Era of boxing, his career is full of victories that mirror or are better than Wlads but some suckers here think Bugner isn't any good. Bugner would have Wlads record easily in todays world...
then we got some clown who claims he started watching boxing in the 50's then put's Ali and Wlad in the same sentence as 'the best heavyweights'. If he isn't out right lying then he is proving that he is senile now, or has always been a bad boxing ****yst.
Then you get all these pure idiots rambling off the names of boxing's famous fighters (Lyle, Terrell, Foreman) as somehow indicators to why Wlad stands a chance. These guys are the worst. Wlad has faced only ONE serious boxer in his entire life, a disinterested, unmotivated Lennox..and got TKO6. If Lennox actually had been in his prime he would have damn near killed Wlad, but people want to pretend he'd have a chance against Shavers, Liston, Norton..Frazier, Lyle, etc...
Ali was x2 athlete Wlad is, x2 times the fighter, x5 the champion, most of Ali's notable opposition couldn't even use 99.9% of Wlads opposition as sparring partners, Ali proved his could stand in wars with boxing's best and come out on top. In FOTC, in deep waters, championship rounds, Ali gets up from a punch that would have knockedout most fighters - after spending all of 1 second on the mat, to finish the fight strong...and you bums want to cast Wlad in his shadow?
Could Ali has done what he did to Bugner to Wlad? Sure he could have. It didn't win him the fight against Bugner -Ali's superior boxing skills did-, and it wouldn't 'win' the fight against Wlad but Ali's superior boxing skills would. Thats the answer to your question OP.
Has there ever been a more predictable heavyweight, a more methodical puncher than Wlad after the 60's? ...Probably not. If much of boxing is muscle memory + condition, and then skill..then there is absolutely 0 chance that Wlad beats Ali on points. None, what so ever. Ali would shuffle, float, right lead, stick and move and just pummel Wlad for 15 rounds...
Enjoy Klit where he is..In the worst era of heavyweight boxing the 'living' world has ever seen. Nothing is wrong with that. But don't pretend that Wlad matches up with the GOAT. Thats just stupidity. If Wlad was alive back then his record at best would have been alot like Bugners, and Bugner ending at 83-13 didn't do half bad.

IT MAY HAVE been a slow Election Day in Philadelphia yesterday, but there still were a couple of dirty dealings out in the streets.
And Republican controller candidate Al Schmidt learned that in this town, you can't trust anybody.
Not even your own party.
In at least two divisions in the 31st Ward - in the lower Northeast - Republican committee people were handing out sample ballots with Schmidt's name crossed off.
Could this cut have anything to do with Schmidt's tense relationship with the GOP ward leader in the 31st, Philadelphia Parking Authority Director Vincent J. Fenerty Jr.?
In a story in the Daily News last month, Schmidt said that Fenerty had discouraged him from running, and accused the Parking Authority of having a cozy relationship with Democratic Controller Alan Butkovitz.

Company: New Sensations
Cast: Timber, Mark Davis, Wild Cat, Jazz (I), Randy Stone, Nellie Pierce, Lensi Rae, Vanessa (VII), Wynona, Asia (I), Santino Lee, Johnni Black, Dee (I), Alivia Anya, Others
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2

Fine addition to an active oral section.
Twelve vignette-style offerings from director/performer (in several scenes) Santino Lee. Guys are mostly anonymous, although Mark Davis' standing 69 bit is pretty much a signature, and Lee's plugging of his Sex TV line qualifies as a hint. Scenes are mostly oral once the action starts, with facial pops the rule rather than the exception. Good performances throughout, unfortunately uncredited—so the newcomers labor in anonymity alongside their better-known sisters.
Particular kudos to the anonymous camera op who got in there with well-lit shots close enough to be practically distorted (but pleasantly so) and the usual tip o' the chapeau to editor Tara London, who cut the scenes with a maximum of peaks and a minimum of valleys, getting all 12 scenes in in a shade under the two-hour mark.

I think this theme looks great, but the default image alignment (with or without caption) does not work on pages or posts unless I use my own, added custom style, which is annoying.
Additionally, on this theme I get a ?doing_wp_cron= error upon first hitting the site, regardless of browser. Would seem to be a theme issue since I don't get that with other themes.
Theme creator so far has not responded to requests at the person's website or, at least in any kind of timely manner that I can see, here at WordPress.org.

Things That Pose As Stamps
In stamp collecting terminology there are stamp-like items that purport to be stamps but are not considered to be legitimate postage stamps. These stamp-like items are not fakes, counterfeits, or forgeries. They are called labels.
Postage Stamp Collecting
Stamp collecting has become one of the most loved hobbies of people throughout the world. A stamp contains a piece of time and a piece of place and thats why people love collecting them.
Various Types Of Postage Stamps
Most stamp collectors are aware of the basic purposes that most stamps have such as air mail, general postage, stamped envelopes, post cards, etc.
What Constitutes A Stamp?
Before postage stamps were adopted in Britain in 1840, whoever received the mail had to pay for the postage due. Imagine having to pay the postage on all of the junk mail you receive these days. You would have to pay the postage on all of the junk mail, postcards, bills and other letters you receive
Stamp Collecting As A Money Making Venture
Some people find that they want to move on to other interests. If they like collecting truck memorabilia, they have probably collected everything imaginable within their budget.
Free Stamp Collecting Catalogues
Stamp collecting is a worthwhile hobby. Stamp collecting and philately as well are popularly shared by many people all over the world as their favorite past time. It is one educational endeavor where a person can spend considerable effort and time.
Some Stamp Collecting Thoughts
Stamp collecting does not have any rules! You are free to collect how and what you want, only limited by your budget. Of course with that said, you really need to know what stamps are available to collect.
Bringing Out The Stamp Collector In You
Not everyone who is interested in stamp collecting is a collector. Seems somewhat strange, doesnât it? If you are interested in stamp collecting, wouldnât you be considered to be a collector? You can be interested in stamp collecting for many reasons and still not be a stamp collector.
Essential Supplies for the Stamp Collector
Collecting stamps is a widely loved hobby all over the world. Stamps are pieces of history which has value that is sought after by the whole world. Collecting stamps is also a hobby that most people can engage into because of the minimal expenses that it requires.
It All Hinges On The Gum
The adhesive substance on the back of stamps is called bum. The term derives from the words gum arabic which is a derivative of the acacia tree found in Africa. Before the introduction of self-adhesive stamps, additional forms of gum came into use in stamp production.

class MyClass
private static volatile Resource resource;
public static Resource getInstance()
if(resource == null)
resource = new Resource();
return resource;
Here my doubt is according to java concurrency in practice if you use volatile, safe publication happens (i.e. as soon the reference is visible to another thread the data is also available). So can I use it here? But if it is correct then suppose thread1 now checks "resource" and it's null so it starts creating the object. While thread1 is creating the objet another thread i.e. thread2 comes and start checking the value of "resource" and thread2 finds it as null (assume creating "resource" object takes some considerable amount of time and as thread1 has not yet completed the creation so the safe publication hasn't happened hence unavailable to thread2 )then will it also start creating the object? if yes then class invariant breaks. Am i correct? Please help me in understanding this specially use of volatile here. Please bear with me if i asking like a naive.
