In war of words, Sonnen clear winner over Silva
If a mixed martial arts fight was a war of words, Chael Sonnen would have already beaten UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva by first-round KO.
Sonnen (24-10-1) has made one outrageous statement after the other trashing Silva (26-4) to hype their fight at UFC 117 on Saturday at 7 p.m. in Oakland on pay-per-view. Where does all the anymosity come from?
"I just don't like him. That's it," Sonnen said. "I don't offer an apology and I don't need to give an explanation. We can't all get along. He and I aren't going to be friends and we're going to go out and fight. And that's it.
"I don't wish him a bad life. I don't hope anything bad happens to him. I'm going to take his belt on Aug. 7 and (UFC president) Dana (White) is going to fire him on Aug. 8."
What seems to get Sonnen going the most is his belief that Silva is a phony. Silva and Sonnen did a conference call last week to promote the fight and Silva was giving "yes" and "no" answers to questions. Sonnen was asked if he felt like he was carrying the promotion of the fight?
"Do I feel like it? There's no argument there," Sonnen said. "Of course, I'm promoting this fight myself. And that's the way it should be. Nobody wants to hear from Anderson anyway. I'm shocked with all of these people that come on here and ask him questions. Who cares what Anderson has to say? You guys are the only fans he's got is the media. There's nobody buying tickets to see this guy. There's nobody selling merchandise because this guy is wearing it. There's nobody tuning into a pay-per-view.
"I'm the one carrying the show. And that's the way it should be. I'm the one they want to see. I'm the one that they're paying to see. And I really don't even know why he's here."
Sonnen said all the added interviews and responsibilities of promoting a UFC main event can be a negative, but it's part of his job.
"You know, I'm a partner with the UFC, Anderson's an employee," Sonnen said. "There's a big difference. That's the reason all the questions keep coming to me because I give a coherent and clear answer that somebody wants to hear and he sits on a speakerphone in a car somewhere and says yes and no."
Silva said all of Sonnen's antics and trash talk have been "funny."
"What's in my mind is I wants to go in there and do my job," Silva said. "I mean everyone has their own way of promoting a fight. This is the way that Chael's choosing to promote the fight. And that's his choice. But on Aug. 7 I have a job to do and that's what I'm going to go in and do is do my job, not mess around and talk a bunch of (stuff) about people."
Here are the other pay-per-view bouts for UFC 117: Jon Fitch (22-3) vs. Thiago Alves (16-6); Clay Guida (26-11) vs. Rafael Dos Anjos (14-4); Matt Hughes (44-7) vs. Ricardo Almeida (12-3); and Junior dos Santos (11-1) vs. Roy "Big Country" Nelson (15-4). ...
Dos Santos is 5-0 with five stoppages in the UFC and has quickly risen up the ranks of the organization's heavyweight division. His boxing and knockout power have been so devastating that no one has seen what he can do once the fight hits the ground. He does hold a brown belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu and trains with the Nogueira brothers.
"He (Nelson) is good in jiu-jitsu, but I can surprise him with submissions too," dos Santos said. "I'm going to show you guys what I can do on the floor." ...
Alves is looking to avenge a 2006 loss to Fitch when they meet at UFC 117. Alves was winning the fight and was working some ground-and-pound when Fitch knocked him out with an upkick in the second round.
"I want that fight," Alves said. "I've been asking for that fight for a long long time. Now, I finally have the chance to get it. So I'm not going to waste this. He's going to pay." ...
Strikeforce and Sengoku veteran Nam Phan (15-7) of Garden Grove is among the 28 lightweights vying for a six-figure contract with UFC on Spike TV's "The Ultimate Fighter 12." UFC welterweight champion Georges St. Pierre and top contender Josh Koscheck will be the coaches. TUF 12 premieres on Sept. 15 at 10 p.m. on Spike TV. ...
The "Battle in the Ballroom" returns to the Irvine Marriott with six boxing bouts and one MMA fight tonight at 7:30. Heavyweight prospect Joe Hanks (13-0, 9 KOs), a 6-4, 240-pounder, makes his sixth appearance in the past 16 months at the Irvine Marriott when he takes on Johnnie White (22-2, 18 KOs) in the main event. Welterweights Justin Carroll of Huntington Beach and E.J. Chavez of Santa Ana square off in the card's lone MMA bout.
Promoter Roy Englebrecht reports there are only 110 tickets left. Call (949) 553-0100 after 9 a.m. on Thursday to purchase tickets ($32-$60). ...
Anderson Silva vs. Chael Sonnen
When: Saturday, 7 p.m.
Where: Oracle Arena, Oakland
TV: Pay-per-view ($44.95)
Outlook: Silva (26-4) makes his seventh defense of his UFC middleweight title against Sonnen (24-10-1) in the main event of UFC 117.
Prediction: Sonnen, a two-time NCAA Division I national champion, has the kind of wrestling pedigree that could pose some serious problems for Sonnen. If Sonnen is able to take Silva down, he has excellent ground-and-pound and top control. But Silva's striking is on another level and he is a black belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu. Sonnen will push Silva, but in the end the champion's striking will control the action and he will retain his title via decision.
Record in 2010 picks: 16-8-1

The company name starts with a 'C' and I wanted to bring that into the mark as well as the idea of optimism and luck. The rainbow feels like a good metaphor for this and the curved shape also helps to form the C.

The draft order below is based on a tiebreaking formula created to project the final winning % of opponents, in order to break tiebreakers. In the current scenario, here is how I see the draft shaking out:
1. Browns- Ndamukong Suh- It is clear here in Ohio that Mangini is on borrowed time, so his 3-4 scheme will probably be taken out of town in early January. Suh is a big time interior defender who will add a huge asset to the Browns. The Bengals and Steelers are primarily run-oriented teams, and Suh as a 4-3 undertackle is a tasty proposition against these division opponents. Expect the Browns to keep B. Quinn, or look to free agency.
2. Rams- Jake Locker- Locker has the physical skill set that is unmatched in this draft at the QB position. Size, arm-strength, mobility. The Rams are more than happy to send Bulger to the curb, and let the rookie get some playing time right away. In a pass-happy NFC West, the Rams need to put up some points, so this change is essential to the future of the Rams.
3. TB Bucs- Russell Okung- The Bucs may have found their franchise QB in this draft in Freeman, but need a stud LT to keep him upright. Although Okung is not at the same prospect level as J. Long, or J. Smith, he presents long-term security to a franchise that simply does not score points. Plus, this is the area where modern draft history dictates an OT will be taken.
4. Detroit- Gerald McCoy- McCoy is just a small step below Suh. Fast and explosive, teams can line him up as a DT or DE on passing downs. The Lions are 30th in the NFL in defense, so someone has to come in and help. Note: The Lions were silly/stupid/moronic for drafting a TE at number 20 last year when James Laurinaitis was on the board. They still need help at MLB.
5. Washington- Jimmy Clausen- The Skins seem determined to find a new QB to replace Jason Campbell, and Clausen represents the guy most ready to step in and start on Day One. Daniel Snyder is impatient, and will throw him on the field right away. But, he better get FA help at OT, or the rookie will get slaughtered.
6. Kansas City- Eric Berry- This is truly one of the no-brainer picks of the draft. The Chiefs back end of the secondary is abominable, and the team needs a leader and anchon for the defense, especially a pass defense that ranks 28th in the NFL. Berry will be the NFL defensive rookie of the year.
7. Buffalo- Sam Bradford- T.O. seemed to be on his way out the door in 2010...until a couple weeks ago, when he began to make a dramatic comeback with the team. The greater concern in Buffalo is at QB. The talk is that Trent Edwards is done with the team, so this team will probably hunt for Mike Vick, draft the next best QB on the board, or both. Bradford is dinged right now, but has a solid resume. He can sit for a year behind Fitzpatrick or Vick.
8. Oakland- Carlos Dunlap- The Raiders love athletes, and Dunlap, even with his DUI, is an athlete. Is this a wise pick? No. But, when has Al Davis made a wise first round pick in the draft? The big, 290 pounder will run a 4.70, and Davis will run his card up to the podium at the draft.
9. Seattle- Anthony Davis- The Rutgers LT is a big, physical guy, who will continue to move up draft boards this offseason. He is far from a perfect prospect, but when he engages an opponent, they don't go anywhere. The Hawks need a long-term replacement for Walter Jones.
10. Denver (from Chicago)- Cameron Heyward- The Broncos pass defense is phenomenal, ranked second in the NFL. However, their run defense is 16th. Heyward is a big-time athlete who can play the 3-4 DE position. He continues to improve each year, and still has a big upside to his game. Look for Mike Nolan to have an extra toy to play with in 2010.
11. SF- Trent Williams- The Niners will play it safe here and grab the OT they desperately need. Williams is perfectly suited for the RT position, and can help the ailing run game. The Niners will still see two players on the board that they covet, knowing one will fall into their laps.
12. Houston- Derrick Morgan- Another no-brainer for this team on the clock. The Texans are 30th in the NFL in sacks, and with Peyton Manning on the schedule twice a year, this has to be fixed. Morgan is the best pure 4-3 DE in this draft.
13. SF (from Carolina)- Joe Haden- The Niners seem tremendously unsettled at one corner position going into 2010. It appears the team is flirting with the idea of dumping Nate Clements, or moving him to FS, which may be the best alternative. While Shawntae Spencer has been terrific in 2009, he has had a history of injuries, and the lack of depth, as seen by the erratic play of Dre Bly and Tarell Brown, could point to the Niners picking up CB help. Haden is clearly the ace of the CB class in 2010.
Next off the board: Dez Bryant, who I believe will interview poorly, and will scare off some teams in the top 10 picks; CJ Spiller, who will burn the track at the combine.
Note: Keep a sharp eye on Murray State DE Austen Lane. This is a kid who is 6'6", 260 pounds, and runs a 4.60. Do not be surprised if he is the "shock" of the draft, as a kid who jumps into the middle of the first round.

Genre: Feature
Fireball is a four-wall city of sweaty close-up sex.
But that's what we've come to expect from producer Mark Curtis, who specializes in the kind of feature that harkens back to the good – or bad, depending on how you look at it – days of loops.
The spare story involves a "club" called Sugar Mama's, where girls strip for patrons. You know this is a low-budget video when only a handful of gals perform here, and only a couple of guys watch them. Fireball could have been bettered by some innovative strip sequences. Here, the performers appear to be going through the motions. And they're not very erotic ones, either.
The sexual stuff is plentiful and close-up filled, but it could be a lot hotter. I don't know about you but girls with bleached streaks in their hair, tattoos, overweight guys, and droopy mams are not my idea of a great time.

This article reviews the current state of research in chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS). The evolving definition, prevalence, and prognosis of this controversial illness are presented. We review studies examining psychiatric, personality, and psychosocial etiology for CFS. The evidence for pathophysiology in CFS is also presented, and studies investigating viral, immune, neuroimaging, neuroendocrine, and central and autonomic nervous system abnormalities in CFS are assessed. Current evidence indicates that CFS is multidetermined and heterogeneous and that subgrouping patients according to factors such as psychiatric state and symptom onset may be fruitful. The current state of treatment for CFS is reviewed, and the challenges for research aimed at resolving this prototypical mind/body problem are discussed.

|"Thor: Ages of Thunder" one-shot on sale this week
In the one-shot âThor: Ages of Thunder,â in stores this week, writer Matt Fraction (âThe Immortal Iron Fist,â âUncanny X-Menâ) and artist Patrick Zircher (âCable and Deadpool,â âTerror, Inc.â) chronicle some of the tales of Thor and his fellow Asgardians from past Ragnarok cycles. CBR News spoke with both creators about the project.
âAges of Thunderâ came about when Fraction had a sudden revelation about Thor after years of never knowing how to approach the character. âI had a Thor breakthrough. I suddenly got it,â the writer told CBR News. âIt wasnât just that I got it. I got really excited and started to nag my editor, Warren Simons, who edits âThor,â about it. I just started throwing out these images and ideas for Thor. In the middle of a discussion about âIron Fistâ or âThe Orderâ Iâd be like, âHey Warren. You know what would be awesome in Thor?â I couldnât shake it. But than the stars finally aligned and Warren said, âWhy donât you stop being an annoying prick about this Thor stuff and weâll put something together.ââ
|Page from "Thor: Ages of Thunder"
Fraction believes Thorâs defining personality traits depend on what era of the character one is looking at, but believes there is one character element which links all the eras. âWhat came to me in my breakthrough was that I finally understood the epic quality the character has to have,â he stated. âItâs that colossal power that comes from a god like character.â
|Pages from "Thor: Ages of Thunder"
In âAges of Thunder,â Thor is dangerously overconfident. âHeâs the brash warrior of 15 Ragnaroks past,â Fraction explained. âThe grand story is about Thorâs arrogance and disconnection from humanity. We see him as a god who doesnât believe he needs other gods or man. So this is ultimately a story of how Thorâs arrogance was his undoing set against a very heroic and very traditional backdrop of Norse mythology.â
Fractionâs depictions of traditional Norse mythology in âAges of Thunderâ are inspired and informed by Stan Lee and Jack Kirbyâs âTales of Asgardâ back-up stories, which appeared in early issues of âThor.â âThatâs the template,â Fraction stated. âWeâre taking these, great epic stories, folding them around the Marvel characters and remixing and reworking them. Weâll borrow bits from one story and put them in another. So weâre taking the stories from this traditional cycle and building a new narrative out of all the parts.â
|Pages from "Thor: Ages of Thunder"
To give âAges of Thunderâ the appropriate âgod-sizedâ feel, Fraction and Zircher experimented with the bookâs layout. âThe entire story is laid out in double-page spreads. But the story still has plenty of panels and content,â Zircher explained. âIt's not just a series of gratuitous splashes. It was Matt's idea-- and it's been exciting, challenging, and a bit of a bitch. Multiple panels have to fall into the space right or left of the fold, those panels that do cross the page have that ever-present fold in the center to contend with, and the whole thing has to feel like a natural read. If it hadn't worked, I'd have cursed
Fraction for making an already difficult job even harder. Okay, actually I was cursing him. That's why âThe Orderâ was cancelled.â
Stylistically, Zircher went with a different approach than he originally intended for âThor Ages of Thunder.â âOriginally, I was going to emphasize the âfantasyâ aspect, add a touch of what Michael Kaluta and Charles Vess bring, ornate and dreamy. Unfortunately, that may be too serene for Thor,â Zircher said. âFortunately, Matt was âjonesingâ for something visceral and violent. So it's a bit darker. I'm inking my own work and adding grays, but I'll probably lay down more blacks and shadows as I go along.

The supporting cast of âAges of Thunderâ features almost all the Asgardians. âThis is very much about the pantheon,â Fraction said. âLoki is around. Balder is in it. The Warriors Three are in it and so is the Enchantress. And youâll see lots of Odin.â
âAges of Thunderâsâ setting in a previous Ragnarok cycle gave Zircher the chance to tweak the character designs of the cast. âLoki was probably the most challenging, resisting the temptation to draw his sweeping golden-horned helmet. Most of his scenes are scheming, close to home,â Zircher said. âI wanted something courtly, rather than aggressive. All in all, I wanted to create an impression of Thor and his fellow Asgardians as characters who wear clothes or armor, not superhero costumes--at the same time, keeping an aspect, some of the âgeometry,â of design that Kirby brought them. That's what makes it Marvel's Thor. That said, I think Thor looks great in black.â
|Pages from "Thor: Ages of Thunder"
âAges of Thunderâ is bound to appeal to fans of Thor and epic fantasy, but Fraction hopes the book grabs the attention of other readers as well. âYou donât have to have been reading âThor.â Thereâs nothing you need to worry about continuity-wise,â the writer stated. âIn fact Iâm hoping to reach out to people like me who have felt cut off and alienated from the character, and myth and Tolkein style fantasy stories in general.â

Zircher also found working with Fraction to be an exceptional experience. âMatt is terrific. He's talented and he's modest about it,â Zircher stated. âHe finds the humor in adventure without making it farce. The real appeal, as an artist, is that he gives me something to draw: great scenes that I find myself looking forward to.â
The duo loved working together on Thor so much that theyâre doing it again. Their next collaboration, âThor: Ages of Thunder-Reign in Bloodâ is in stores June 25, and Zircher promises he and Fraction are doing their best to make the story a worthy follow up to the first âAges of Thunder.â ââReign of Blood,â while also set in the past, is still several centuries later, all things being, more or less, eternal in Asgard,â Zircher explained. âAspects of it are right in step with âAges of Thunderâ, others are darker. Much darker. I mean, hey, it is called âReign of Blood.ââ
Now discuss this story in CBRâs Marvel Comics forum.

WASHINGTON — Resurgent Republicans rallied Sunday behind an agenda based on unwavering opposition to the Obama White House and federal spending, laying the groundwork for gridlock until their 2012 goal: a new president, a "better Senate" and ridding the country of that demonized health care law.
Republicans said they were willing to work with President Barack Obama but also signaled it would be only on their terms. With control of the White House and the Senate, Democrats showed no sign they were conceding the final two years of Obama's term to Republican lawmakers who claimed the majority in the House.
"I think this week's election was a historic rejection of American liberalism and the Obama and Pelosi agenda," said Rep. Mike Pence, the Indiana Republican who is stepping down from his post in GOP leadership. "The American people are tired of the borrowing, the spending, the bailouts, the takeovers."
Voters on Tuesday punished Democrats from New Hampshire to California, giving Republicans at least 60 new seats in the House. Republicans picked up 10 governorships; the GOP also gained control of 19 state legislative chambers and now holds the highest level of state legislative seats since 1928.
"It was a very rough week, there's no sugarcoating that," said Rep. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., who led the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee.
Democrats who controlled the House, Senate and White House for two years now must work with Republicans, who have not shied from pushing their agenda.
"I don't see any sign of the president retreating from his principles, but I do see his willingness to reach out, and wherever reasonable and in the interests of moving the economy and jobs forward, he's going to work with the Republicans, as are the Democrats," Van Hollen said.
Republicans have made clear they plan to work stridently against what they view as a White House out of control and out of touch.
"The president did say this week he's willing to work with us," said Rep. Eric Cantor, the Virginia Republican who is in line to become majority leader. "Now listen, are we willing to work with him? First and foremost, we're not going to be willing to work with him on the expansive liberal agenda he's been about."
First target: Democrats' signature health care law.
"This was a huge, huge issue in the election last Tuesday," said Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky. "A vast majority of Americans feel very, very uncomfortable with this new bill. People who supported us, political independents, want it repealed and replaced with something else. I think we owe it to them to try."
But the reality remains that Republicans do not have enough seats to marshal through a full repeal if Democrats remain steadfast in their support. Even if Republicans were able to sway enough Democrats to support their effort, it would face a certain veto from Obama.
"Admittedly, it will be difficult with him in the White House," McConnell said. "But if we can put a full repeal on his desk and replace it with the kind of commonsense forms that we were advocating during the debate to reduce spending, we owe it to the American people to do that."
Rep. Paul Ryan, the Wisconsin Republican who will take leadership of the House budget committee, said the GOP will reign in the overhaul through oversight hearings and cutting off money to implement the law, "but then again, the president has to sign those bills, so that is a challenge."
"You can't fully repeal and replace this law until you have a new president and a better Senate. And that's probably in 2013, but that's before the law fully kicks in, in 2014," Ryan said.
For their part, Democrats, like Republicans, faced their own intraparty challenges:
- Penny-farthing owner keeps on riding
- Authorities: Munich shooter planned attack...
- Clinton's turn: Guide to the Democratic...
- Baton Rouge to continue to mourn officers...
- Civil-rights marchers: US still needs to...
- Obama: Trump's NATO comments show...
- Turkey investigating people who say coup...
- Author, activist speaks at Theodore Roosevelt...
- Sarah Silverman: Bernie-or-bust Dems... 49
- Is Bernie Sanders an atheist? 44
- Trump says Russia should find Clinton's... 43
- Obama boosts Clinton: Carry her like... 41
- Clinton wins historic nomination,... 37
- After turmoil, Sanders, Michelle Obama,... 31
- Dems' division, emails roil party on... 28
- Democrats and Republicans double-down... 28

It took Max Timlin three full days in the musty old library of St. Pius College, north of Tampa, to make sense of Father Ralph's revelations: Raoul Glaber was not the real name of the leader of The Watchers. Max wasn't as convinced as Ralph that this was true, but he devoured the evidence.
He began by reading the Book of Revelation, sometimes known as the Book of the Apocalypse. He always thought the word "apocalypse" meant some great final cataclysm, as in the movie "Apocalypse Now." But it was actually the Greek word for "revelation."
Under Father Ralph's tutelage, Max came to realize that the revelations of the last book of the Christian scriptures are shrouded in mysterious and symbolic language.
"It's as if the Apostle John was dropping acid with Picasso," said Max, irreverently.
"The dreamlike visions of this book have left so much open to interpretation that any tinhorn prophet can use it to predict just about anything," explained Ralph. "One thing we know for sure, that for at least a thousand years, people who look at their own times, and see dark things, return to this book as a kind of mystical map."
Max pored over the text and some commentaries on it. In one tradition, he learned, Christ would return to rule over the Earth for 1,000 years. The Latin word for this was "millennium." The story of this return contains several subplots, including the appearance of false prophets and antichrists, a time when Satan would rule, a great battle between God and his enemies, and the Last Judgment.
"The great problem," explained Ralph, looking at Max over his reading glasses, "was how to calculate the time when Jesus would return. There's evidence in the Gospels that the disciples thought it would happen right away perhaps in their lifetime. But when it didn't happen, it opened the door for people to reinterpret the Scriptures for their own purposes."
Max learned that the historical Jesus was actually born between 6 and 4 B.C. the first calendar makers goofed which means that even if you were thinking about an era of 1,000 years, what would be the starting point? The moment Christ was conceived? His birth? His death and resurrection?
Max read a gospel passage in which Jesus describes a time of judgment when "the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give her light, and the stars will fall from heavens."
"Look," said Max to Ralph, "Jesus said that this generation will not pass away till all these things have been accomplished.
"But listen to this next part," said Ralph pointing down the page and reading aloud: "But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven.' Jesus is urging his followers not to calculate the precise time, but to do good all the time, to be prepared for their own deaths and the end of the world, which would sneak up on them, like a thief in the night."'
That led Max and Ralph to a discussion of the year 1000, the only historical precedent for what the world was about to experience. Ralph stood on tiptoes and pulled a thin volume off a high shelf. "This is the smoking gun," he said.
The innocent book was called "The Year 1000," written by a French art historian named Henri Focillon. The text tried to settle an ancient intellectual argument: Was there any hard evidence that people living in 10th century Europe were obsessed by the terrors of the last days? Did they think they were living in a time when the end of the world was at hand?
The simple answer was no. The historical records and artifacts do not reveal a population in panic. Early in the next century, after the millennium had passed, there was an intense period of church building.
"That might suggest," said Ralph, "that some people were holding their breath, waiting a bit before undertaking any big projects."
But there were some notable exceptions, some 10th century "lunatics," as Ralph called them, who were prophets of doom, who saw signs of the last days everywhere. The most notable of these was a radical French monk. "His name was Raoul Glaber."
Glaber wrote of a great meteor or comet he saw in the night sky in the year 1000: "It appeared in the month of September, not long after nightfall, and remained visible for nearly three months. It shone so brightly that its light seemed to fill the greater part of the sky, then it vanished at cock's crow. What appears established is that this phenomenon in the sky never appears to men without being the sure sign of some mysterious and terrible event."
"Do you think Glaber saw Halley's comet?" asked Max.
"Focus on the more important point, Max. We're not talking ancient superstitions here. Remember what the Heaven's Gate cult did upon the appearance of the Hale-Bopp comet. They followed to the death a wacky old guy, who apparently had himself castrated, who told these bright young people they were computer experts, for God sakes, they had their own Web site! that there was a spaceship waiting for them behind the comet."
"All they had to do to get there was to put plastic bags over their heads."
"Read this," said Ralph and pointed to a passage in the text. It said that the old French monk saw Satan everywhere, including right beside his pillow, and that Satan was a "small black monster of human shape," and that "Satan will soon be unleashed because the thousand years have been completed."
Max leaned toward Ralph and whispered: "Isn't it possible that Glaber's daddy just named him Raoul?"
"And what? That just by coincidence he turned into Doomsday Dick? Have you been able to track back on this guy? Do you know his family's history?"
"I've got a researcher at the Sun working full blast on it. So far there's just a black hole."
"I'll tell you, Max, this guy, whoever he is, adopted the name of a man who, 1,000 years ago, was trying to scare people to death. And I predict that this guy will do the same. Unless we stop him."

All Rise...
Judge Sandra Dozier sings, "Up from the ground come a bubblin' crude...oil that is...black gold...ah, you know the rest."
Editor's Note
Our reviews of Instant Expert: Ben Franklin (published September 25th, 2010), Instant Expert: Beowulf (published August 21st, 2010), Instant Expert: Egypt (published August 21st, 2010), and Instant Expert: The Mayflower (published October 9th, 2010) are also available.
The Charge
History introduces Instant Expert, an exciting new line of titles offering on-the-spot knowledge to students and lifelong learners on a wide variety of topics.
The Case
If you've ever wondered exactly what crude oil is, and why we can't just synthesize more of the stuff, Instant Expert: The Story of Oil is the long-winded answer to your query. Originally broadcast as the documentary Crude in 2008, this 94 minute feature has been repackaged as part of the Instant Expert series.
I wasn't as pleased with this effort as I have been with other Instant Expert titles. When I think of a documentary, I think of a tight, well-paced march of information. Unfortunately, The Story of Oil got off to a very slow start with a clumsy introduction that tried to build suspense by meting out pearls of information, which it did not attempt to support for another 15 minutes. Since I had already forgotten where they were going, the narrative obliged by recapping all the previous information, and repetition was born.
Using a combination of computer animation showing life and environmental conditions during the Jurrasic period, historical images, and interviews with experts in the field, The Story of Oil first establishes what oil is, the specific environmental qualities required to produce it, how oil is used by modern man (underpinning practically all products we use), our waste of this natural non-reproducable resource, and the prospects for eventually running out. In some ways, we've heard about our abuse of oil for years, but this documentary dispassionately spells it out for us, and the scope of the problem left me wondering how we're going to solve it.
I found the middle segment fascinating. Once the pace picked up, there was a great deal of information offered up by former oil industry executives who have moved on to create sustainable energy companies of their own. The technical detail involved in the science of oil refining is broken down and presented in terms everyone can understand. However, I would have liked to see more focus on potential solutions to the problem of oil depletion; a subject only touched on briefly.
The video and audio quality are acceptable, but not remarkable. My one beef with the presentation centers on the source material; some of the computer animation and the lingering shots of water overexposed to look like oil caused quite a strain on the eyes. Otherwise, the transfer was watchable. The audio was clean, with just a hint of extra hiss in certain parts, probably source related. As with other Instant Expert releases, the only bonus features are an interactive quiz and a printed insert with discussion questions and internet resources.
The Story of Oil is Definitely worth a look. The lack of polish in the computer graphics and the pacing of the material should not be a deterrent. Although the documentary does not come full circle in highlighting solutions to the problem of worldwide oil consumption, it does go in-depth on how we got the oil in the first place, which makes it stand out from other oil documentaries, thus providing an excellent teaching/learning opportunity.
Side note: I had no luck locating a copy of the original Crude documentary, which makes purchasing this version all the more attractive.
The Verdict
Not guilty.
Give us your feedback!
Did we give Instant Expert: The Story Of Oil a fair trial? yes / no
What's "fair"? Whether positive or negative, our reviews should be unbiased, informative, and critique the material on its own merits.

Building high-performance clusters with LAM/MPI
Many applications used in engineering, oil exploration, simulation, and scientific research require the power of parallel computation, and that is why developers continue to use LAM/MPI for building HPC applications.
Although the next-generation Open MPI implementation [6] includes many new features that are not present in LAM/MPI, LAM/MPI has a very large base of users who are quite happy with its reliability, scalability, and performance.
Improving Performance
In parallel computation scenarios, the main objective is often to reduce the total wall clock execution time rather than simply reduce CPU time. Because so many different factors are present, you cannot expect a linear improvement in performance just by adding more and more nodes.
One of the most important factors is the inherent parallelism present in the code (i.e., how well the problem is broken into pieces for parallel execution). From an infrastructure point of view, many additional factors can also contribute to improved performance.
In most LAM/MPI cluster implementations, because client nodes have to communicate with each other through the MPI architecture, it is important to have a fast and dedicated network between nodes (e.g., gigabit Ethernet interfaces with bonding).
Also, it is a good idea to create a separate VLAN for a private communication network so that no other traffic can contribute to performance degradation.
If your application is performing any kind of data mining (which is often the case for commercial implementations of LAM/MPI), disk I/O from master and client nodes also has an effect on performance. However, because of the nature of parallel execution, it is important that source data for data mining (or the executables in simpler implementations) is available to all nodes for simultaneous read and write operations.
If you are using SAN-based external disks along with NFS, setting NFS parameters can be beneficial in terms of performance improvement. If you are using NAS storage subsystems and NFS/CIFS protocols to make shared data sources available to all nodes for simultaneous read/write, it is highly recommended that you use a separate VLAN and Ethernet interfaces on each node for disk I/O from the NAS subsystem, so that storage traffic is isolated from MPI traffic.
Finally, cluster filesystems (such as GFS, GPFS, and Veritas) can also help speed up disk I/O for large LAM/MPI implementations.

Brittany Bowe wins 500 and 1,000, while Shani Davis proves he still owns the 1,000 in long track speedskating
Amy Donaldson, Deseret News
KEARNS — Speedskater Brittany Bowe said her third victory in two days didn't matter.
But the smile that spread across her face as she said that indicated the wins might mean just a little to the former inline skater who moved to Utah four years ago in hopes of competing in the 2014 Olympics.
The 25-year-old Florida native skated to her second 500-meter win and the 1,000-meter title Saturday at the U.S. long track single distance speedskating championships inside the Utah Olympic Oval. Her 500-meter time of 37.77 seconds was a personal best by more than two seconds.
"I just wanted to come out here and have another strong race, maybe take home the 500-meter title this weekend," Bowe said after doing just that. "I really didn't think about my PR at all. I was actually focusing on getting better in that opening 100 meters. That's really all I thought about."
It helped Bowe that she skated with third-place finisher Lauren Cholewinski (37.99 seconds), who has a quick start.
"She definitely pulled me up to speed in the opening 100, and then I think I pulled her into a good lap," Bowe said. "Coming into that last turn, I definitely felt her right on my hip. It made me really gun it to the end. It was a PB (personal best) for both of us, so I can't really complain there. It feels great — just a good start to the year."
Reigning world sprint champion and Bowe's good friend, Heather Richardson, was second with a time of 37.86. Richardson skated with Bowe in the 1,000-meter race, which is the favorite event of both women.
Bowe passed Richardson in the final 100 meters to earn the win with a time of 1:14.06. Richardson's finished in 1:14.28, while Sugar Todd was third with a time of 1:16.99.
"It really doesn't mean anything," Bowe said. "Our ultimate goal is obviously Sochi 2014. Definitely a great start to the year. I can't complain, and I'm very happy."
Richardson had a painful stomachache before Friday's 500-meter race, and said she decided to see a doctor when the pain persisted all day.
"I got an ultrasound, and I actually have a cyst on my ovary," said Richardson, who also finished second in Saturday's 500-meter race with a time of 37.86. "I felt like a baby thinking it was cramps from my period."
There is nothing doctors can do for the problem except monitor it and make sure it doesn't get worse. Despite that, Richardson said she felt better Saturday, thanks to a dose of ibuprofen.
"It's helped the pain," she said. "I was able to get some good skating in, some technical skating, and that's all I was hoping for. I'm excited I was able to finish as well as I did, and I look forward to the race season."
Bowe and Richardson train together, and both women said their friendship has made them both more competitive in the sport.
"It's awesome to have a training partner," said Richardson, who swept these races last season. "We used to train together in inline (skating), but we would only get to train like two weeks out of the year because she lived in Florida and I was in North Carolina."
Now both women live in Utah, where the headquarters of U.S. Speedskating are located.
"We push each other as hard as possible in our trainings," Richardson said. "It's nice to have another leader. She leads me out just as well as me leading her."

AES E-Library
The Audibility of Spectral Precedence
There has been much speculation concerning the audibility of phase and in particular its effect on the sound quality of equalizers. Are the perceived differences between equalizers caused by differences in phase response? This research looks for answers to this question by testing the audibility of simulated group delay distortion. An audio signal is split into frequency bands and one band is delayed or advanced in time relative to the other while the amplitude (frequency) response is held flat. The effect of spectral precedence, a frequency-selective precedence, is evaluated.

I as wondering how much space Mathematica, Maple, and Matlab will take up, under Windows and under Ubuntu? I am planning to reserve some space in partitions.
Mathematica requires 4GB on any platform (Link)
Maple requires 1GB on Windows and 2GB on Ubuntu (Link)
Matlab States it requires
FYI - I used to partition everything, now I don't bother. Forget partitions, it just becomes a nightmare to manage at a later date!
Since Mathematica 6, but especially with Mathematica 8, using certain functionalities such as curated data (for Chemicals, Geography, Polyhedra, etc.) will load and update local databases from the Wolfram internet web sites. Expect the footprint of the program to grow over time. Usually the first use since install of one of these functions will cause a significant first download and indexing before it answers.

Hardcore/Normal Campiagn Walkthrough
Written By: a SN3AKY SNAKE
Credits to Nesher Lavan, oo NUKE oo, Slackydave, Aponac, Soldier 4 I Am, Prophollus
*Guide is almost complete. Any contributions welcomed!*
Mission 01: Dragon Rising Difficulty: 5/10
Mission 02: Blinding the Dragon Difficulty: ?/10
Mission 03: United We Stand Difficulty: 7/10
This mission is fairly easy until the end were you need to defend the village from the PLA.
Make sure you have the APC. When you clear the village and your APC is facing the village on the road going into the village you will see a long dark building. There will be PLA troops that will spawn here. If facing the sandbags and machinegun it will be on your right.
Park the APC North of the building if the airfield is South. The North end that is facing the beach where the mission started. You should be able to see the top of the hill by the road where the jeep will come from and a large amount of PLA troops. You should also to your left side be able to see the other hill to the far left. (When I did it there was a tree blocking some of my long and short shots, but was able to kill everything that came near me.)
Get in the gun turret and hold down the (B) button and press down on the (D) pad to select the exploding rounds. Switch to the Thermal vision. Screen should be gray and anything with a heat signature will be bright white. Once you have them fire away. Watch the hill in front of you and watch for enemies to your left. MAKE SURE you kill the AT gunners when they appear. They will light your would up fast if not killed quickly.
I used the 2nd APC from the start. Doing this allowed me to see the first 2 AT Teams. I used the APC through the whole level and worked like a charm.
Mission 04: Eagle Offense Difficulty: 6/10
When you're approaching the airfield, after having taken out the small settlement with mortar fire, you'll see that some APC's and a jeep are joining you. Get in the jeep and order your entire team to enter as well. Then you drive south and take a curve to the east, around the actual airfield. Don't stop for anything and drive to the control tower, to the east (you should be south of the large open area and the buildings where there's a lot of heat). Your gunner should help you keep off any enemies
Once you have captured the tower set your squad to defend the lowest floor. You need to stay on top at least until you shoot down the helicopter (look in the ammo crate at the bottom of the tower for a SAM). Save at least half of your 4 air strikes until the period after you shoot down the helicopter. Then prowl around the middle and bottom floor picking off PLA and calling in a few air strikes.
A problem that seems to be when defending the control tower is that enemy APC's seem to be destroying the entire tower so another suggestion would be going over the landing strip behind the rock (at the bushes). You can kill everything from here - APC's helicopter and infantry. All you really need is a scoped rifle and the AA launcher
Note: if you're out of AT-weapons, there is another crate at the other side of the tower (so that the tower is between you and the incoming APC's).
Mission 05: Powder Trail Difficulty 7/10
This mission will be mostly trial and error for you and will take time as the POWs don't seem to listen very well. The way I have explained how to finish this mission is meant for speed, but due to the high amount of enemies you'll encounter in the village speed may not work for you. You can try to eliminate most if not all the enemies or due a quick in and out rescue.
Once you hook up with Echo take the Humvee and head east along the coast. Look out for groups of enemies on the way and also keep a look out for the enemy chopper. If you see the enemy chopper make sure you hide from it because it will blow up the Humvee including you if you aren't lucky. As you arrive at the village have your squad defend the area south of you were you and the hostages will need to run. Keep them there defending, while telling the POW's to "Move fast" to the extraction point. (Make sure you check that they are because there seems to be an issue with them not doing so.) As you make your way to the extraction, tell your team to follow if they are still alive. Get into the chopper with both POW's and mission complete.
Mission 06: Hip Shot Difficulty:5/10
Sprint to the lookout point where there you'll find a guard. Headshot him and wait for the other team to create the diversion.
Once the diversion begins head down to the depot from the outlook heading left. As you are heading left there will be a guard patrolling, but do not shoot him. Head into the depot where there are large cylinder tanks near a refueling spot. In front of the refuel station there is a guard, kill him. Head straight to the generator and plant a charge. Leave the depot the same way you entered but wait until you see that guard you passed as he'll be coming back around. Let him pass and head towards the extraction. There will be 3-4 enemies at the LZ so keep a look out and mission completed.
Another Strategy:
Once you blow the fuel depot, run straight through to the other side and enter the idle jeep parked outside. If your teammates can make it, fine, but at this point they are not necessary. Simply drive toward the LZ but loop around to the reverse side. The enemies waiting there will be facing the wrong direction, allowing you to pick them all off.
Mission 07: Bleeding Edge Difficulty: 7/10
The APC actually works great, just keep following the road that the APC starts out on. Head towards where the AT teams are at but stay back a bit so that they don't blow up the APC. Get into the gunner seat and use the thermal with explosive rounds instead of the machine gun. Once the AT teams are killed head up the road more and to the right you should be able to pick out the MG nests. Also remember to take out the MGs on the left side of the road there should be two also. When continuing down the road you'll have to take out 2 spotter teams directly in front of you. Don't get too close as there are a total of 3 ATs. Two are in the trees and one is closer down the road. Continue using the explosive rounds and should take them all out fairly easy. There will be two more spotter teams on the left of the road also. Continuing further there are 3, 2 man teams of AA again us the explosive rounds and done. Now the last part at the fuel depot don't get too close but head down the road until it becomes a dirt road and continue that until you are overlooking the depot. Kill anything glowing from there and the rest move in on foot as mortars will take out the APC.
Mission 08: Looking For Lois Difficulty:5/10
At the start of the mission is a shack with two soldiers in it. One is packing a handy sniper rifle. Snag it to make the base assault a breeze. Run down the mountain when you get to the POWs, there are 4 PLA enemies that you have to kill. Once done head back up the mountain from where you started and continue north to the LZ. On the way I ran into 3 groups of 3 PLA enemies but wasn't anything difficult. This will allow you to get to the base undetected. Once at the LZ, There are about 7-10 PLA enemies. Once all ten are dead, your ride out of there should arrive.
*Note: Not all 3 POWs have to survive to complete the mission. I had only 2 make it and completed it.

Hardcore/Normal Campaign Walkthrough
Mission 09: Trumpet's Sound Difficulty: 7/10
Morter the 3 ATs and 3 tanks. Head down the road and grab the jeep and continue forward down the raod but stop before coming up to the new area. There are 3 PLA and one has an AT and will destroy the jeep. Take these three out and drive up to the new location and secure the area. Head up the hill and destroy the remaining AT gunners and when that objective is complete, head back to the jeep and hang a far right staying far away enough to avoid mortar fire while you can. When directly south of the monestary, go as far as you can with the car but be mindful of the mortar strikes. Continue on foot eliminating the 4 spotter teams and level finished!
Mission 10: Decapitation Difficulty: 4/10
This mission is one of the easiest missions in the game, as long as you stay undetected though.
Head up the mountain and kill the sniper. Follow Han along the mountain side as you are directed. I continued on the ridge left of the road Han is traveling. run to the top of the mountain overseeing the radio station and try to destroy the radio station and Han together or you'll have to run in and destroy the radio station with explosives. when both objectives are completed head straight to the extraction and look out for PLA patrols.
Mission 11: Dragon Fury Difficulty: 6/10
Begin by immediately taking out the enemies' tank. To do this run and get on the road so you have a clear shot with the javelin. Once the tank is destroyed, move towards the old shack where the MG is.
Inside the shack is a crate where you can pick up a Queen bee rocket launcher*. Take out the MG's at the top of the hill then head right and jump into a friendly M1 tank and make your way towards the enemy AAA vehicles. As you're approaching keep an eye out for AT Gunners. Destroy the AAA with the tank and eliminate any other foot troops as you wait for the Choppers.
After destroying the AAA vehicles, grab a helicopter, fly to the back of the base and work your way forward. There's about 20-25 PLA enemies total.
*Note: I grabbed the rocket launcher because sometimes the tank gets destroyed by AT Gunners. By having the Queen Bee it's much easier to take out the AAA then relying on squad mates or using C4.
Good job Marines! Semper Fi

A few notes:
Mission 2 becomes incredibly easy if you first play it on Normal and learn the proper waypoints. Following those same directions in Hardcore puts you in a much better tactical position that aimlessly running around.
Mission 6: Once you blow the fuel depot, don't backtrack through your original entrance. Run straight through to the other side and enter the idle jeep parked outside. If your teammates can make it, fine, but at this point they are not necessary. Simply drive toward the LZ but loop around to the reverse side. The enemies waiting there will be facing the wrong direction, allowing you to pick them all off.
Mission 7: YMMV, but I found that mounting an APC and clearing out the machine gun nests before the first mortar team worked wonders. I personally hopped out and ran up the hill to the first team, but kept the APC with me throughout the entire mission to pick off distant enemies. As long as you keep your distance, it works well for the final assault.
Mission 8: At the start of the mission is a shack with two soldiers in it. One is packing a handy sniper rifle. Snag it to make the base assault a breeze.
Mission 9 is made much easier once you learn you can skip directly to the monastery in a jeep. It's lame, but once you clear out the anti-armor teams you can hijack a jeep and take it in a wide path around the backside of the mountain. As long as the spotters don't see you they won't lob mortars your way. Simple keep to valleys.

Hardcore is actually fairly simple once you know the little tricks. Annoying, but straitforward.
Another note on Mission 3: At the beginning of the mission, clear out the initial enemy groups, then hijack an APC and boogie up the hill as fast as possible. The final mortar/spotter team, however, will (in my experience) always take out at least one APC before you get a chance to kill them.

Talk about a run woman show.
In "Endure," Melanie Jones brings you through the hills and paths of Prospect Park, an immersive play inspired by that curious hobby incomprehensible to anyone who hasn't felt the urge to do the New York City Marathon — long-distance running.
Jones, who's finished four marathons herself, is a running junkie, doing a loop around Prospect Park daily. Being out on the road for hours at a time training for these grueling races inspired her to document the experience.
"When I was out there for a long time, I started to notice that almost every human experience under the sun came up while I was running," said Jones. "There would be moments of complete bliss and utter perfect happiness, followed by rage the likes of which I've never heard of."
With such rich, dramatic ground to draw from, Jones wrote "Endure," a stream-of-consciousness narrative that documents one woman's ups and downs while running 26.2 miles, from start to finish — in a play that lasts only 45 minutes.
In the show's two runs — on July 9 and 16 — Jones will lead audience members through Prospect Park as they listen along to an audio file, downloaded to an iPod in advance of the show.
"It's an adventure," said Jones. "We go off the grid, I'll tell you that much."
For those who may pale at the thought of running, fear not. The show only covers about three miles, and Jones herself does the majority of the exercise.
"I didn't want to exclude people who might be intimidated by running," said Jones. "You do not have to run. And nobody gets left behind."
Of course, to fully experience "Endure," it can't hurt to work up a sweat.
"Endure" meets at the Old Stone House in Washington Park [Fourth Avenue between Third and Fourth streets in Park Slope, (718) 768-3195], July 9 and 16 at 11 am. Free. You must RSVP in advance to download the audio file. For info, visit www.runwom

"Roeselare" Roeselare by Tempelier
Roeselare Travel Guide: 119 reviews and 195 photos
I advise you to take your best pair of legs with you because this bell-tower museum is spread out over 12 storey's who are in nature of things connected by ... stairs. The mere very panoramic view of it, in case of bright weather stretch out as far as the Kemmelberg (Heuvelland) and the IJzertoren (Diksmuide), makes the climb well worth the effort.
On the way you get an absorbing survey of the bells-history, the ingenuity of automatic systems of chimes and the timepiece mechanism.
On the second floor kids can test there talents on the carillon player key-board that is in connection with the chimesbarrel. You don't have music talents in your fingers? Before you know where you are, on the key-board are colors fit in with the notes on the scores. In this way everybody is able to play a tune. In the top sits the carillon player. Did you know Roeselare has an chimesclass and it 's a part of the Royal Chimesschool?
Striking is also on church holidays and special occasions there are still 4 chime-bells manually sounded.
