Judah protests Khan fight
Zab "Super" Judah has filed a protest with the Nevada Athletic Commission and has also sent letters to both the WBA and the IBF requesting that those organizations order a rematch with Amir Khan. According to the protest letter, Judah's requests are predicated upon the inappropriate actions of the referee, who was clearly not in a position to see the low blow administered by Khan which ended the fight, as well as the referee's reluctance to sanction Khan for repetitious hitting behind the head and holding Judah down throughout the bout.

By Ray Wheatley–World of Boxing
Australian boxing legend Lionel Rose, who passed away on May 8 at the age of 62 years, has been honored with a special tribute magazine from "The Greatest" Volume 2 that depicts his life from when he was born on June 21, 1948 in Drouin, Gippsland, Victoria, Australia to his final days when a Bronze statue was erected in his honor.

McCall decisions Willis
By Peter Lim at ringside
Even at age 46, former WBC heavyweight titleholder Oliver McCall, 56-11 37 (KOs), retains the attribute that was his best asset when he in his heyday – his cast iron chin. McCall utilized that very quality to outpoint Damian Willis, 30-3-1 (23 KOs), over 10 rounds at the Houston Athletic Fencing Center on Saturday night. The Atomic Bull simply absorbing his younger opponent's blows and bullied him with on the inside. McCall spent the first three rounds testing Willis' punch and then proceeded to walk him down and bludgeon him with short punches thrown from both fists. Willis, 31, came in flabby around the midsection and by the fourth round, was huffing and puffing with every punch he threw. As the fight wore on, Willis' punches began to lose steam and bounced harmlessly off McCall's head, while McCall rocked Willis each time he scored a direct hit. But Willis denied McCall the openings for more than one clean shot at a time by smothering his attack by leaning and clinching, which resulted in sloppy action for much of the bout. Scores were 97-93 and 96-94 (twice) all for McCall. The bout was staged by Savarese Boxing Promotions. (more…)

Backgate? Not according to Victor Ortiz and his camp. Ortiz, a world title belt holder who will take on Floyd Mayweather on September 17th at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, wanted to clarify certain media reports and rumors of a supposed back injury he suffered recently in training camp. "With all due respect, I think it's ignorant people," Ortiz told Fightnews.com on Saturday afternoon at the Knuckleheadz Gym in Ventura, CA. "I think it's funny that people were saying that the fight was going to be cancelled." (more…)

I used UpdraftPlus to migrate a site today and found that OSE Firewall is incompatible with the migration process it uses. I'm guessing it's because of some database entries in the WP database, or the lack of transportability of the OSE databases if the WordPress Address or Site Address is changed (as they were on this migration). I deleted the plugin and tried re-installing but there must be some remnants (in the WP database?) that are not removed when deleting the plug-in.
The symptom is that the site shows a blank page, as if the firewall is preventing any html presentation to the browser. No 404 and no error message, just a blank page.
I can't use your product on this site now until I can identify what needs to be changed to allow OSE to function normally.
Do you have any idea what I might try?
Shoot me an email and I can reply with a copy of the restore log showing errors that were associated with OSE tables.
Thanks in advance!

When I first started in this whole automotive journalism biz, I held a sort of hodgepodge receptionist/gopher/production assistant role, and each morning as the staff filed in, I'd ask them how they liked whatever car they were assigned to drive the previous night. Most of my colleagues would regale me with anecdotes about how good or bad a vehicle was, but one co-worker, every single morning, would answer my query with the exact same phrase: "It was fine."

So, I am working on changing the stain on my particle-board cabinet(disassembled). I sanded, and then pre-stained the various pieces. I have also applied the first coat of stain(ebony) to the wood pieces, but I keep getting finger-prints and various marks on it as I move the pieces around. How do I get rid of those from the dried pieces? What is the best way to store the pieces away to dry? My other question is now that the pieces are dry, I guess I need to apply the sealer, in my case, minwax quick-dry polyurethane clear gloss,is there anything else I can do to make the finished product appear as if it was professionally done? I am using MinWax Wood Finish which claims to be both a stain, and sealer, do I need sealer still? And please how do I get rid of the smell when I am done? Is there a trick to this I can apply here?
Do what a professional would do - don't touch it when wet.
Sand the affected areas with fine grit and re-stain, leave until it dries completely, then move, flip over and do the opposite side, etc. Apply the poly in the same manner. You cannot handle pieces until they dry fully. You also cannot handle them with hands that are wet with finish.
With real wood, proper technique with stain is to apply, let it soak in, wipe off excess which wasn't absorbed (by the less porous parts of the grain pattern), let it dry completely, evaluate the result, and repeat the whole sequence if/where you aren't getting the contrast you want. Then apply varnish over the top to seal it and protect it, again letting it dry between coats.
But particle board has no grain, so there isn't any differential absorption and you might as well just leave it there.
Sanding should be essentially complete before you begin applying surface treatments. Poly may want a very light sanding between layers to slightly roughen the surface and encourage the layers to bond with each other; read the manufacturer's instructions, and always wipe down with a tack cloth or microfiber cloth to remove sanding dust before applying the next coat. The final layer can be "rubbed out" after it has cured completely for a smoother surface and higher gloss, but that calls for very fine abrasives -- in fact, simply rubbing it with a paper bag is sometimes sufficient.
Books can be, and have been, written on the subject of finishing ... but I'm not sure particle board calls for much more than "don't mess it up."
If its what I'm thinking it is( a thermal-foiled particle board) you are doomed to failure. Most production grade furniture is made of this material and it will never take stain or finish the way you want it to. Basically they take particle board and wrap it in a micron thick layer of (usually) pvc foil with a wood grain printed on it. The foil is specifically designed to be nonabsorbent so it repels stains, and it has a particularly high molecular count so nothing sticks to it. That's pretty much the opposite of what you want when your trying to refinish something.
You can scuff sand it (but you'll almost certainly sand off some of the print) and apply a product like PolyShade (stain and finish in one) but it will be an uphill battle. You'll probably have adhesion problems, any vertical surface will take the color unevenly because the pigment settles to the bottom, any overlaps will show as the color doubles up, and on and on. Sorry to be a kill joy.
First off, I would not recommend staining particle board. If I'm picturing it correctly, you're working with an Ikea product that's essentially compressed sawdust held together by glue and two thin sheets of veneer, right? If the veneer is real wood, then you have a shot at staining with a good result. Otherwise, stick with paint.
For staining, you'll need to progressively sand with finer and finer grits. Since you started with 40 (I would usually start with 80 or possibly 120 if the surface was already smooth), next use 80, 120, and then 220. Your goal with each pass is to smooth out the surface so no scratches exist that are larger than the current grit that you are using is capable of producing. A random orbital sander should be ok for the whole process, but if you're using a simple rotary sander you'll need to sand by hand in the direction of the grain for your 120 and 220 passes. Otherwise you'll get swirl marks. With veneer you also have to be careful not to sand through. This may be very difficult in your case since you started with 40 grit.
Next wipe down the surface with a very slightly damp rag to remove all the sawdust. Let it dry out COMPLETELY afterwards. Then you're ready to apply wood conditioner. Follow the directions on the packaging.
Next, apply your stain. Wear gloves for this part. I use a foam brush and apply it in the direction of the grain. Keep a wet edge and work from one side of the piece to the other. After waiting the amount of time specified in the directions, carefully wipe off the excess stain, once again in the direction of the grain. The longer you leave it on, the darker it will be.
After letting the stain dry completely (and possibly applying a second coat), you're ready for poly. Make sure the surface is dust free, and STIR the poly (never shake, which introduces air bubbles). Apply using a foam brush, or one you don't mind cleaning with the appropriate solvent. If using a foam brush, don't squeeze it against the workpiece, which can also cause bubbles. Sand with 220 grit or higher between coats, and make sure to wipe away all dust this creates before applying the next one.
Lastly, to avoid any fingerprints or marks during the whole process, do not touch the piece until it is dry. Don't try to relocate it while wet. Just accept the fact that you may have to take longer if you don't have a large enough work space to do it all at once.
The cabinets probably do have a "finish" on them as opposed to being bare particle board. If so, the comment above about not being able to stain is correct, and you will need to paint. If they don't have a finish on them, particle board will suck up A LOT, A LOT of stain and can get expensive, so even then painting instead of staining may be a better option. I found some great information on ehow.com when I searched for "how to paint particle board to look like wood." For an even better effect, in addition to their instructions, use a wood graining tool, which is a rubber thingy with "teeth combs" and "wood patterns" (get a good quality one from a paint store instead of wal-mart). I removed the doors from the cabinets and laid the doors on cinder blocks so I could paint the edges as well as the surfaces. I used my dining room to leave them on the blocks until dry and ate in the living room. If you don't have that space, a technique I used in the past when painting interior doors is hammer nails into the top and bottom edges of the doors so they could be leaned against a wall to paint and let dry, thus allowing you to paint the edges of the doors. if you do this, you will end up with visible nail holes in the top and bottom edges (which of course on an interior door is not an issue because the top and bottom edges of a door are not visible). If you do this, you will have to be creative in filling the nail holes with wood putty and then use an artists paintbrush to paint the holes. Good luck!

Three Ways Admins Can Think on Their Feet
There's nothing worse than getting on the elevator and realizing you're standing next to the boss with nothing to say for 11 floors or being in the middle of a breaking crisis and not knowing how to react.
"[Thinking on your feet is] definitely a learned skill, and most of us don't spend a lot of time learning it," says Peter Spruyt, a Los Angeles-based actor and stand-up comic. "When I was in school, most of my classes involved learning and regurgitating material by rote. Since we have so little experience thinking on our feet, the thought of 'going off script' seems unfamiliar and a bit scary."
But you don't have to despair -- you can learn how to think on your feet. Here are three tips to make it easier that will also help you become a more effective communicator overall.
Focus on the Other Person
Deborah Gross is the assistant to three executives at Mimeo.com, an online, on-demand document printing and distribution company in New York City. "Our office is on the eighth floor, and that elevator ride can be a brutal one," Gross admits. "In these situations, I stay away from discussing the weather, because I feel that's a sure sign that I'm uncomfortable. Plus, it's so cliche."
Instead, if it's someone she knows, Gross asks about their family or hobbies. If it's a stranger, she looks for something else. "You can tell them that there's something on their jacket, so it puts the attention on them and looks like you're trying to be helpful and very observant, detailed-oriented -- all very important qualities to have," she says.
Be a Better Listener
It's important to keep the conversation going, says Allison Heartinger Connor, an improvisational comedian and former admin in Dallas. You do that by listening carefully.
"So many people are thinking about what they're going to say next instead of listening to the person talking to them," Connor explains. "Listening always helps your own thinking process. Consider what the person has said, and don't shut them down. In improv, it's all about saying, 'Yes, and...' -- never 'No, but...'"
Study the Art of Conversation
If even a little small talk makes you crazy, consider joining a group that focuses on public speaking, suggests Jennifer Lyall, founder of Liv Healthy, a health and wellness Web company in Toronto.
While working in marketing for an HR consulting firm, Lyall realized she was tongue-tied at all the wrong times. "I would turn beet red when called upon in a meeting and stumble over my words when I rode the elevator with the president," she recalls. "The only way to get good at it is to build your confidence and practice, practice, practice."
Lyall joined the local chapter of Toastmasters International, a group designed to help members develop public-speaking and leadership skills. "Every week, we practice our impromptu speaking skills in something called Table Topics," she explains. "I've gone from dreading Table Topics to entering contests."
Another option: Take an improv class. "As crazy as this sounds, an improv class for nonactors does wonders for building confidence and being comfortable speaking in front of others," Gross says. "I started taking a class just to get over my shyness and now find that I have no problem giving my opinion, even when it's not expected."
The key, Spruyt says, is to keep working at it. "When it looks easy, it's usually because we've been doing it for years," he says. "Very few of us were good at it when we started."

'Mr. Wonderful' reveals what it takes to wow on 'Shark Tank'
The season debut of "Shark Tank" (tonight at 9:00 p.m. on ABC) is poised to chew up the competition (last season it was the top Friday night network show among adults aged 18 - 49), and that's just fine with the tough cookies who tear apart the fledgling business owners who come begging. Mark Cuban, Barbara Corcoran, Lori Greiner, Robert Herjavec, Daymond John and "Mr. Wonderful" Kevin O'Leary have no problem telling entrepreneurs what they really think. I had a chance to talk to Mr. Wonderful during press tour, and he revealed the three things that make him interested in investing, the companies that have disappointed, and why everyone should want to invest with a shark... if they can.
"Shark Tank" is fun to watch, but if I had a business, I doubt I could stand the heat.
What I find so interesting about it, I notice as we're taping this year, season 5, I don't even know we're making TV anymore. The deals are really big, the companies are real they have sales, I get into it, and I'm looking at them as real investments. It gets competitive. You have to decide are you going to collude with a shark to keep the price down, or are you going to compete and the price goes up? It's all strategy.
Are most of the business owners making smart decisions when you talk with them?
No. Let's take something like a total commodity, like cupcakes. There's nothing proprietary about cupcakes. Anybody can make them. Anybody. Cupcakes are hot these days. So you take a cupcake company in Boston, no one's ever heard of them. They come on the show and want to raise $75,000 to start a commercial kitchen to up their production. Their sales are $16,000 a week. Not a lot. That's a deal that I did because I liked the mother daughter team. I put $75,000 into that company, and the next week we sold $280,000 in cupcakes. I was just blown away. Since then, sales have gone up. I think "Shark Tank" is a platform you can launch a business on. So many people are watching it, and the repeats, and the follow-ups.
What's the biggest mistake people make?
They don't know their numbers and they ask too much.
Are they greedy?
I think they make the assumption that just because they got on the show, they're done. But it's not true.
How important is it to be in business with a shark?
It's important to be in business with a shark, because 10 million people a week see the shark. It's like "American Idol" on steroids. It's the voice for business. It wasn't that way years ago, but it is now. Every deal that we do, sales go up.
I would think sales would level off, but you're saying they go up even long after the show airs?
What happens is, if the company's successful, we start shooting follow-ups six months later, and they stay in the eye of the public. The good, the bad and the ugly. Some of them work, some don't. [Mark] Cuban and I invested in a company called Toygaroo. It went to zero. We lost half a million bucks. And then we did Talbott Teas, Damond [John] and I. Jamba Juice bought it, a public company bought six months later. I think that's the highest return on investment on any "Shark Tank" deal ever.
What do you look for in a deal?
I like companies that have sales, that have already proven they know what they're doing. I'm a financial investor. I'm a disciplined guy. I don't overpay for anything. And I'm really good at looking at a balance sheet and seeing [if a company needs to] modify its cost structure, do better with the banks they're working with, whatever. I look for an opportunity where I can grow their sales, cut their costs. If the concept has not been proven, a clothing deal, I hate that stuff. I want Daymond to do that. Another jean, blouse, jewelry, all that.
You stay away from clothing? Why?
The risk [with] fashion, you can't control [it]. I'll tell you something. "Shark Tank" has self made millionaires and billionaires in every segment of the economy. It's not like an ordinary venture capital. I don't care what the deal is, one of us has invested in this before. It's not like you have a bunch of MBAs who aren't operators. We all run our own businesses. Give us fifteen minutes, and whoever you are, we've ripped your business apart from the perspective of running it. I don't care if it's in technology or education or clothing or food, we've been there. We're a tough audience.
How much are we not seeing on the show?
I think the editors have done a great job of capturing the essence of the deal. But some of them go on for an hour and a half.
That much time on one deal?
The longest has been an hour and thirty-seven minutes. Those are very large deals, and they get cut down to eight minutes.
When does your investment in the show stop paying off? You're a busy guy, and you're spending a lot of time on this.
I've been doing this a few years now, and it's just getting bigger and I'm enjoying it more. It's a hobby gone crazy. I'm an investor, that's what I do for a living. I have many investments. And these are some of the most interesting I've ever done. Because they have the platform of television supporting them.
There are a lot of good ideas that come through, but so many of these business owners don't seem to understand what's ahead.
I think that's good television. Some of the ones you think aren't going to work at all end up being the best ones. I would have never thought RuckPack, which was a Marine sniper in Afghanistan brought an energy drink, that's on fire. It's going into Walgreens now. That's "Shark Tank," the emotion of television. Even the buyer at Walgreens knows the story.
How important is story versus product?
If you look at the common string of success over hundreds of people, there are three things. They're able to articulate the idea in 90 seconds or less, secondly they're able to explain why they are the right person to produce this. That's important; it takes longer. And in everything, they know their numbers. They know the economics of their business. There's nothing worse than asking questions about the economics and having this person not know.
Any memorably horrible ones for you?
There's been a few of those. I remember a company that made cookies, so sugar, no fat, gluten-free, and when I tasted it, it tasted like sand. That was bad. Then there was one that did caffeine cookies. Like, five cups of coffee in a cookie. I thought if a child eats that, their head will blow off.
Are there any ways you're going to shake things up this season?
We have two billionaire guest sharks. We have Steve Tisch, who owns the New York Giants, and Paul Mitchell, the hair guy. Plus, Barbara and Lori are appearing in the same episode. The fans wanted it, and they got it.
Do you pay attention to fan reaction?
I don't worry about that. My view about business is black and white. You either make money or lose it, and I'm the only guy up there who tells the truth. If you can't take it, I couldn't care less.
Do you sharks hang out at all?
In five years, I have never seen all the sharks together except at tapings and the [TCA] Awards. We've never been together. I don't know what it is, but never. We get along, but there's something about the awards. Maybe it's the fear of the critics, but it gets us here.

Historical Traveler Reviews Hotel Mozart Brussels
Would not recommend this hotel
Hotel Mozart has a convenient location with easy access to the train station and just a short walk to the Grand Place. But this is all on the plus side. We had reservation for 2 nights but had to check out after the first night because of not being able to sleep all night due to the noise coming from the hotel internal courtyard. I would not recommend this hotel because I feel that the noise in the hotel either from the street lined with cheap eateries or from the internal courtyard is a problem.
Well located but wouldn't stay here again
We booked this hotel as part of a trip to Belgium which took in Bruges. The hotel is well-located in the centre and with rather baroque furnishings throughout the hotel we looked forward to our stay. The room was a good size and reasonably clean. That first night there was one rather upsetting problem: the room backed onto a central courtyard with an outlet pipe for the kitchen directly below. The cloying smell of stale cooking fat filled the room during the night and meant we had no real sleep that night. After making a complaint we were told that this was the centre and close to the Markt so perhaps we should quit complaining. After standing firm and asking to be moved to another room the concierge (grudgingly) moved us. No chip-pan odours this time. Maybe this was a one-off but the unhelpful and unfriendly manner that our grievance was dealt with means we won't be staying here again.
Good if you want this area
we stayed here for two nights..this is excellently located between the station and the Grand Place...the management kept our bags until we checked in ..the room was small..no tub...and the other person is right the kabob restauants ...they were noisy and dirty with broken glass in the streets... the breakfast room was lovely and had wonderful criossants..this place is run by persons of the Middle East persuation and if they try to get you into a disscussion concerning politics or GeorgeW,.as they did wuth us...dont bite
Central, unfriendly, noisy, not too clean.
Hotel Mozart in Brussels is located only a couple of minutes from Grand Place. The street is very noisy and filled with cheap eateries, kept mostly by Moroccans. The food they serve is mainly kebap and such, very low quality. It's hard to believe that one can find that kind of "cheap" and ugly street in the very centre of the city.
Well, the whole centre of Brussels is dirty and full of litter. Not to talk about the surrounding neighborhoods Molenbeek, Anderlecht and Saint-Josse. The area near the southern railway station, Gare du Midi, is also surprisingly dirty and even dangerous in the evening time, be warned.
The hotel Mozart has been overdecorated, using a lot of strong salmon pink, red and gold. There are "statues" and other artsy stuff everywhere in the public areas.
The rooms are very small, but there are a couple of more spacious and more expensive rooms, too. There are a lot of stairs in the hotel.
The service at the reception could be friendlier.
You can stay at Mozart if you really don't mind the noise, the tasteless decor and careless attitude of the staff.
Cute, fun hotel
We were delighted with Hotel Mozart. We had a triple room and an executive Mozart room along the back of the hotel. Getting to the room was an amazing adventure, "over the river and through the woods" which added to the fun. The decor is over the top but in keeping with the theme. Not a square inch without artwork, a welcome change after a Paris hotel with virtually NO art. Room size was above average for Europe. Breakfast was heavy on bread which was fine with me. I could have done with real cheese however. The staff was incredibly helpful many times, assisting with reservation issues at another hotel, allowing us to use their computer for email, giving directions, and most of all carting heavy suitcases up winding stairs. It's close to the Grand Place and shopping. I'd go back in a heartbeat.
Charming, convenient
A great value. Just off the Grande Place/Grote Markt, and less than 5 minutes from the Central Station. The decor is High Baroque kitch, w/ marzipan public rooms, a patio and fountain. The rooms are small, but attractive, the breakfast decent, tho' minimal. I found the staff and owner exceptionally friendly and helpful. It is on Pita Street and the more spacious rooms in front may be noisy in the summer. (I was there in early April, 2004.) The hotel is well run and secure. Bring along a Mozart cd. For some reason, all they were playing was Beethoven. Try T' Kelderke around the corner on the Grande Place for dinner.
Hotel Mozart w/Family
Hotel's location is excellent. Walking distance to Grote Markt and all the sites. It lacks a few qualities of a 3 or 4 star hotel such as a consierge, mini bar, internet, tub but is reasonably priced for location. Breakfast is minimal (bread,cheese,coffee) and is included. Please note there are lots of stairs and a tiny elevator. Numerous restaurants within very close distance. Gare Centraal Train/Metro station is 5 minute walk. Beware that trains from other cities such as Eurostar may only come into Brussels Midi Station and you'd need to hop Metro. Metro from airport is ~$3 while a taxi to Hotel Mozart is $$. Final note, we went during Christmas and the whole area: grote markt, grand palace, city hall was beautifully decorated and lots of Christmas markets.
Good value
Location is great, just a few steps from the Grand place, and within walking distance of the station. Rooms are small but a have lot more charater than usual city centre hotels. Breakfast was minimal. Staff were a bit unhelpful at times. The hotel is located on a street of kebab shops and bars, so if you want a quiet room, ask for one at the back. Overall this is good value for money, considering its location and character.

We stayed four nights at the Mozart in early July. The public rooms are quite fancy, with lots of marble, paintings, ornate furnishings and of couse classical music in the background. Not exactly my style, but a nice change from the usual hotel decor.
Friendly, helpful staff and a great location. Three blocks from the central station and a block and a half from the Grand Place!
Our room was small, but fine. We were on the 4th floor in the back. It was very quite which was surprising with all of the late night activity on 'Pita Street' in front of the hotel. I don't know if any of the rooms face the street, but if they do it will be very noisy.
Breakfast was simple: one crissont, one hard roll, one boiled egg, coffee & juice. No Nutella!
In summary the Mozart is convenient, visually interesting and a fair price. You may do better with the many choices in Brussels, but you sure could do worse!
Hotel Mozart, Brussels
It's colourful, it's something different and the decorators have tried very hard to give this place a nice atmosphere. If you stay at this hotel, make sure to get a room at the back; it's noisy on the streetside. Breakfast is very minimal.

The flavour pump also has a flap above it to name the exact flavour so that u can be rest assured this particularly is your preferred flavour.

Travel day
We left our little B&B in France today and drove back to Lille on the motorway. 4 lanes each way and a little daunting so we sat in the middle lane on 100 kph and cars were passing us on either side at extraordinary speeds. Other drivers were flashing their lights at us until we realised the speed limit was 130. We sped up to mid 120's but cars just kept passing us. ...
Belgian Essentials
... knighted by Napolean). No other country finds its modern origins in a rebellion that was largely instigated by alcohol. It combines a German approach to beer with a Greek approach to building completion and an Ancient Roman approach to eating. This is my kind of place.
One of the surprising facts I've learned is that Belgium is the comic strip capital of Europe. This explains the numerous graphic novel stores and comic murals I've passed on my wanderings. ...

We also went to the Manneken Pis, which has many stories as to origin, but the true reason is that a statue peeing marked a urination market, where people wouls sell and buy urine for tanners. Not a very glamorous story but I guess that was life in the 1300s. On the walking tour we also went to St Nicholas's church and the stock exchange ...

Introducing Lightweight
My team is currently in the process of developing a new default user experience for MSDN Library (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/default.aspx ). It is viewable today in Beta quality by changing the view using the "orange switcher" in the bottom right-hand corner of the page. You can also view it by adding a token in the URL: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/default(lightweight).aspx. When you use the switcher, it persists the view by setting a cookie.
This new view, the one that will be the default online experience at RTM, is called "Lightweight". Its design balances world-wide response time with usability and features.
How we got here
About 18 months ago, the team upgraded their global site monitoring tools to measure page response time by running a full page, including all JavaScript and asynchronous calls. It showed we had a problem, especially in China. We immediately started an intensive quality of service effort to improve world-wide response time. The team picked four regions to monitor that covered the spectrum of response times we saw. Guangzhou, China had the worst response time and Seattle, Washington had the best. The team made dramatic improvements fairly quickly by extensive use of client and CDN caching, reducing the number of requests and reducing size with JavaScript crunching and image spriting. You can see from the chart below that the team was able to take Guangzhou from a 25s response time to a 4-5s response time.
However, the team felt this was not good enough. These measurements are at the backbone. In China the last mile (backbone to computer) can multiply this time as much as 8-10x depending on connection speed. The team tried another approach. They built a barebones page without any JavaScript and limited images. Results were fantastic - response times were < 1.5s in Guangzhou and availability ran at 100%. In April of this year, we made "ScriptFree" (aka "loband") public by putting a link on the default page that allowed users to switch.
User feedback on ScriptFree was very positive. Typical responses were "I really love it, but...", where the "but" was generally either "just show me the code language I'm interested in" or "please put a search box on the page".
This led to Lightweight. Today, it encompasses our quality of services learnings, users' feedback on ScriptFree and business critical features from classic. The intent is to take an incremental approach to release that allows us to evolve the design to meet users' requirements world-wide (performance matters).
Lightweight Beta Feedback
Lightweight Beta was made public on 10/19 as part of the MSDN brand launch. The feedback has been positive with some suggestions. We are running about 85%+ positive, with font suggestions being some of the most common feedback, especially for code samples. We are reworking our design of these now.
The bright orange, in-your-face, switcher has also garnered a lot of feedback. It seems to have served its purpose, which was to make sure people were aware that alternatives views were available. We copied it from Bing for exactly this reason. However, it clearly is annoying and we are working on replacing it with something more permanent quickly.
The Rollout Plan
Let me start by saying it is a bit complicated. The MSDN site is hosted by a platform called MTPS (MSDN TechNet Publishing System). The platform is being updated to MVC on the same timeline as Lightweight is releasing. Lightweight at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library is NOT MVC.
You can see a very early version on MVC at: http://beta.msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library. Please be aware that the MVC version will not be stable. We actually push our continuous builds to this endpoint; you are seeing code as it is checked-in.
Since we cannot complete both TechNet and MSDN libraries on MVC for all locales by RTM, we have an incremental rollout plan that uses Advanced Request Routing to serve the Lightweight and ScriptFree experiences from the MVC version of the platform and the classic experience from the previous version of the platform.
I hope this helps everyone understand our current state, the direction we are headed and why. I'll provide more details around dates, early comps and feedback analysis over the next several months.

Doug Parkinson
|Doug Parkinson
|Years active
|1960s – present
Douglas "Doug" Parkinson is an Australian singer who first came to fame with his band, Doug Parkinson in Focus, in 1969. He has had numerous hits on the Australian Top 40 charts.
Parkinson first started singing with a band called The A Sound but, in 1966 graduated to a more professional outfit, The Questions. Led by Rory Thomas (piano, organ, woodwind and brass) the group held a residency at the Canopus Room, colloqually known as "The Can", at The Manly Pacific Hotel in Manly, a seaside suburb of Sydney.
In 1969 The Questions changed personnel and in the process became a four-piece band and took on the name of Doug Parkinson in Focus. This band, made up of some of Sydney's top musicians, Billy Green (guitar), Mark Kennedy (drums) and Duncan McGuire (bass), allowed him to showcase his powerful, soulful voice. With this band he rose to prominence with a number of Top 20 hit records in Australia such as "Dear Prudence" and "Without You" / "Hair", the latter written by guitarist and songwriter Billy Green (aka Wil Greenstreet[1]) in the mid-1970s, when Green composed the soundtrack to the film Stone, Parkinson sang on two tracks.
In 1969 Doug Parkinson in Focus won Australia's prestigious band competition, Hoadley's Battle of the Sounds. Following the demise of that band he joined Vince Melouney's post-Bee Gees group Fanny Adams, which recorded one album and broke up. He then embarked on a successful solo career. He also sang the theme song of the short-lived 1980s soap opera, Arcade.
He continues to be a perennial favourite in stage shows, cabaret, club work and recording until the present day.

TDV District Charity Fundraiser Traveling Gavel Scorecard
Message from the District Deputy Grand Master
Welcome to the Toronto Don Valley District Masons website…
Toronto Don Valley District is within the jurisdiction of the Grand Lodge of Ancient Free & Accepted Masons of Canada in the Province of Ontario. This District comprises 19 Lodges; 18 of which meet monthly in the evenings in one of the Thornhill or the York Masonic Temples and one, a "daylight lodge", meets in the Richmond Hill Temple.
Freemasonry is the oldest and largest fraternal organization in the world. Its origins are dated in antiquity and many thousands of books have been written about our Order and much scholarly research continues to this very day. The operative Masons, who gave rise to modern speculative Masonry, sought truth through belief in a Supreme Being, religious tolerance, the quest for light and knowledge and providing relief to those in need – to lift up the fallen and shelter the sick, to care for the orphan, the widow, the old and the destitute.
Every year a district Deputy Grand Master is elected to serve his district. There are 43 such districts in Ontario and I am proud to represent the Freemasons of Toronto Don Valley. I wish to thank York Lodge, my mother lodge as well as the members of the various lodges that encouraged and supported me.
As our forefathers left their imprint in the cathedrals and edifices of all nations that employed their learning and skill, Masonry utilizes as symbols the tools for building in teaching Brotherly Love, Relief & Truth.
This year, we will focus on Harmony to "unite in the grand design to be happy and communicate happiness to each other." The Grand Master has elaborated that harmony is foremost in our fraternity Indeed; many who join our fraternity develop lifelong friendships.
Congratulations all the newly appointed officers who have been recognized by the Grand Lodge for their contributions:
V.W. Bro. Harry (Evan) Woodhead Grand Senior Deacon
V. W. Bro. Neil Friedman Grand Steward
V. W. Bro. William Kinnear Grand Steward
V.W. Bro. Steven Maizels Grand Steward
R. W. Bro. Paul Skazin, P. Grand Senior Warden (Hon)
We are honoured that W. Bro. Peter Stern will be serving as the District Secretary. He has worked tirelessly as the secretary of his lodge and on behalf of the Thornhill Temple.
Freemasons have always served "The Cause of Good" and we will continue our efforts to support our district charity project – "PROSTATE HOPE" on behalf of The Masonic Foundation of Ontario. Our tax deductible donations and efforts provide much needed research to three University Hospitals in Ontario seeking better treatment and cures for this terrible disease.
For those who wish to join our ranks…………just ask!
Sincerely and Fraternally,
Right Worshipful Brother David N. Fernandes
District Deputy Grand Master
Toronto Don Valley District 2015-2016

Publisher's Description
The name Josh McDowell promises real-life, on-the-street Christian apologetics. McDowell, along with his son, Sean, draws on a lifetime of work to create this comprehensive handbook on what Christians believe, why they believe it, how it is relevant to life, and how they can pass it on to the next generation.
The Unshakable Truth is uniquely positioned in the way it presents apologetics relationally, focusing on how right believing affects not only believers but also the people they encounter. The authors help readers
- understand God's grand plan of creation, incarnation, and re-creation.
- discover the 12 "truth statements" of Scripture and why they are credible and critical to living out the Christian faith.
- experience the authenticity of faith through practical examples and real-life stories that demonstrate how relevant the gospel is to life.
A spiritual gold mine for pastors, leaders, parents, and youth workers-anyone wanting to reveal Christianity's power in today's life and culture.

I have a widget that I need to show up everywhere EXCEPT for on the blog page, a listing of all posts from the blog category (mysite.com/category/blog) and any individual posts in the category "blog."
I placed the following code in the WidgetLogic area of the widget (it's just a text widget), but the widget keeps showing up on individual posts:
!is_category('blog') || (is_single() && !in_category('blog'))
To me, this should say that the widget should not show up if the category is blog OR if it's a single post AND in the category 'blog'. But it keeps showing up on individual posts that are in the "blog" category (the only category I am using on blog posts).
What am I doing wrong?

text: Is there a simple way that anyone knows of for me to allow my users to upload ONE picture (no more or less) to go along with their post? Obviously, they can do it from the administration screen, but I was really hoping for something more simple (a plugin maybe?) that would just give them a button below the comment text box for adding a picture. The point of all of this is that it must be VERY straight-forward and easy for people to understand. As a frame of reference, I'm trying to set up a "craigs-list"-type site for my hometown using WordPress. Should be easy, but I'm stuck with this snag. Can anyone help?

Re: how to recover DVD Key
Assuming you have a 7371 dash, you need '360 Flash Tool'.
Dump the nand, flash free60, obtain the CPU key and input that key into 360 flash tool and it will display the original DVD key.

NTSB Raises New Concerns About Dreamliner's Lithium Ion Battery
The National Transportation Safety Board is calling on the FAA to take another look at the safety of the battery used in its Dreamliners. The recommendations issued by the NTSB on Thursday call on the FAA to evaluate whether additional requirements and independent testing outside the aviation industry are needed on the lithium ion batteries used in the Boeing 787s. Incidents involving the batteries' failure caused the fleet to be grounded last year. The FAA released its own internal study earlier this year concluding that it had an effective process in place to identify and correct problems that emerged before and after certification.
