I am delighted that this works so well. After a thunderstrike knocked our Hub 5 out and we had to replace it with a Hub 4 and place it in our loft miles away from our old windows XP PC, I was unable to access the internet despite being told that connecting my PC to one of our Hotspot extenders would work. Luckily this little gadget works perfectly. It was really simple to install and I had no problems downloading the necessary software from the CD which came with it. I can thoroughly recommend this. Only drawback is its use of the only working USB port on the computer. I

Instruction No 1 in the set-up guide, is make sure you are connected to internet and can surf the web.
I got this with my new home hub 4. Even when sat on the desk next to it, it still doesn't have full signal strength. With my previous hub and the built in wireless G of my netbook, I could go about 80 metres outside. Now with the new hub, new dongle and using wireless N technology ....I can't even get out of the door before the signal drops to zero.
I can't see any advantage whatsoever of paying for the new hub or the new dongle. All the adverts and sales talk of the best signal ever. For me it's just hype, if anything it is actually worse.

As we sit on the cusp of the most anticipated weekend of the year for many comics and movie fans, there are a lot of details that we actually already know about the future of the comic book movie for the next several years. Recently, Marvel Studios announced release dates for several untitled films on up through 2019, and rumors continue to persist about Warner Bros. and DC Entertainment readying a slew of DC Comics-related films to match their already impressive lineup of forthcoming TV programs. While many fans see these things as new projects to look forward to, some fans are becoming vocal about worries of dreaded oversaturation.
The idea isn't without merit. When one kind of product floods a marketplace, it tends to devalue all of the other participators of the trend that follow. Comic books have spawned some of the hottest properties in the history of the film medium from 1978's Superman and 1989's Batman through 2002's Spider-Man, 2008's The Dark Knight and 2012's The Avengers. The success of these movies has led to reboots and sequels that are still coming (Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, The Amazing Spider-Man 3, Avengers: Age of Ultron), and there's no sign of comic book adaptations slowing down for many summers to come.
That will certainly lead to the idea of the comic book movie burning out and becoming unsuccessful, right? Well… not exactly.
Have Comics Films Already Burned Out?
Some fans think that comics-based cinema has already started showing signs of burnout, particularly with this year's release of The Amazing Spider-Man 2. People are correct in pointing out that not only was the film critically the most poorly received of the five Spidey films thus far, but it has also grossed the least amount of money.
Instead of taking this as proof that the franchise may need to be reevaluated, some are saying this is obvious empirical proof that comic book cinema is on its way out the proverbial door.
Of course, these same fans fail to see some pretty big signs pointing to the contrary. There's the improved critical and financial reception for two comic book sequels released this year: Captain America: The Winter Soldier and X-Men: Days of Future Past.
The year 2011's Captain America: The First Avenger was considered a critical and commercial success, but its performance in both departments was decidedly modest when compared to other entries in the Marvel cinematic universe, only outdoing 2008's The Incredible Hulk in box office take. Winter Soldier was not only received more positively by critics, but it set box office records for an April release and has gone on to make $ 712 million worldwide.
In the case of Days of Future Past, it is largely seen to correct many of the X-Men movies' previous mistakes. It also earned the best reviews of the series so far, and it currently has the highest worldwide gross of the entire franchise (a franchise that pretty much gave birth to the whole age of comics films we're in now, by the way).
Anyway, ASM2 has still grossed $ 700 million worldwide.
Why You Can't Lump All Comic Book Movies Together
One problem with the argument claiming a burnout is occurring is the idea that all comic book movies can be placed in the same category. That adheres to a rather old misconception about comic books themselves. Neil Gaiman explains this in the Secret Origin: The Story of DC Comics documentary, stating that he always needs to make a distinction to people that comics is a medium, not a genre.
The old analogy of a medium as a beverage pitcher comes to mind. The comic books are the delivery system. Like pitchers, you can fill them up with whatever you want, and chances are that no two will pour the same drink.
The same can be said of comic book cinema. While you can lump the movies together as their own genre a bit more feasibly, there are many other genres which inspire individual superheroes. Batman and the X-Men are characters in very different kinds of stories.
And the upcoming Marvel Studios release Guardians of the Galaxy is based on a comic book and part of the same franchise as The Avengers, yet it's not exactly a superhero movie.The new DC-based series Constantine is also definitely not a superhero show. Instead, it dives into the darker realm of mysticism and the world beyond.
Movie and television studios alike are beginning to embrace the various genres featuring comic book characters that don't wear capes and cowls. While they may have all originated on the comic book page, that's usually where their similarities begin and end.
After this coming weekend, who knows what other new projects we'll learn about? We'll see if Hollywood begins to more actively diversify among the many genres you can pull from comic book source material. The possibilities are practically limitless.

This was good, but the crust was a bit too salty, and there was too much chard, so it didn't look at all like the photo - it was much greener. It would have benefited from some sun-dried tomatoes to give it a sweeter taste.
Chard & Feta Tart
From EatingWell: January/February 2008
Fragrant lemon zest, briny olives and salty feta balance the bitterness of the dark leafy greens in this Greek-inspired tart. The crackerlike crust is quite sturdy so you can serve this as finger food at your next party or alongside a mixed green salad for a light supper.

I did the quest to get the ring of Hircine but I thought I was meant to kill Sinding. Now I have completed the quest and only have his skin. Is there any way that I can re-do the quest or go on another quest to get the ring again?
No, all quest rewards are final. However, you can use the console to give yourself the ring, if you're playing on PC. The code is
Nope, not without using console. However, if you have an old save-file, it is possible to get both daedric artifacts available in that mission - you help Sinding out, get the reward, then go back and kill him.
If you load a save you should be able to redo the mission however you will lose some progress.
I've done this previously and it worked.
For your question, If you got the skin first, you can't get the ring afterwards.
However, there are some instances where you can exploit a glitch to get more than what was intended.
If you (somehow) are able to load an old save before the start of the mission, you can get the ring first, then at the end of the mission, you can get the skin (from my previous answer):
YES THERE IS A WAY! Skip to 6:25

So I've installed this plugin, which so far far seems absolutely spot-on, but I've run into a problem or two, most of which are minor and not worth the trouble, but one of which is totally nagging me.
Fist off, this is the blog the plugin is installed in:
and here's the fan page it's connected to:
Now the problem I am having is that when I "Publish to Facebook Application" or "Publish to Your Facebook Profile" it's only viewable by me, and only when I am logged in. No one else, fans, logged in or not, can see the posts. I would really like these posts to be as public as possible since the whole idea was to drive traffic to the blog and vice-versa. I've spent two hours so far in Facebook's convoluted privacy settings and as far as I can tell every privacy setting is set to be as public as possible. So now I am here, in hopes that someone else has had this issue and resolved it, or that someone has some suggestions I haven't tried. I'm really at a loss at this point.

Here's Why You Don't Leave Dad Alone With the Baby
This dad needs a job...badly. But until he gets one, we'll settle for his creative YouTube videos.
This dad needs a job...badly. But until he gets one, we'll settle for his creative YouTube videos.
And here we thought falling asleep in church was bad.
As a parent, the hardest part of coping with any tragedy—be it a national or personal one—is finding the words to explain the unexplainable to your children, society's most innocent members.
She's a cowgirl, on a rocking horse she rides...
Allow us to introduce you to the cutest child in the world! It looks like imitation is the sincerest form of flattery...and hilarity.
This Tumblr may inadvertently function as birth control. Reasons My Sons Is Crying shows pictures of a little boy crying, and then provides the "reason." It might make you rethink wanting to have kids. It is terrifying. It is hilarious. You should look at these pics and then head over to Reasons My Son Is Crying to see the rest.
So apparently when YouTube star Kid President isn't busy giving us pep talks or taking over the White House he's busy doing one of the coolest things imaginable...meeting actual president Barack Obama.
Think you've got a rough commute?
If you've had your fill of Grumpy Cat videos, why not take it to the next level and watch a video of children watching Grumpy Cat videos? It's basically doubling up on cute...
We would say this impressive, but it seems more appropriate to say this kid is the uber-little brother. Breaking into his sister's room? Check. Stealing her stuff? Check. Doing it in a manner that makes it hard to prove it was him? Check.
A courageous 9-year-old girl climbed out of the wreckage then walked for miles to try to find help after the car she and her father were in fell 200 feet down an embankment very early Sunday morning. She is currently recovering in a hospital outside Los Angeles. Her father did not survive the crash.
On Monday in a town outside Toronto, 10-year-old girl foiled an attempted abduction by requesting a code word she had worked out with her parents.

Customer Finds
Location: Wisconsin
Metal Detector Used: Spectra Series (NONE)
White's Electronics,
All I can say is "Wow". I have been detecting for over twenty years with "Green machines", I have found lots of old silver coins and relics. I just felt I was missing something? After years of a friend telling me to get a White's detector, I purchased a new VX3 last week!
The first trip out was only a couple of hours and searching between snow drifts, I found a pocket full of clad! I noticed I wasn't digging many pull tabs (nice). My second trip out with the ground still covered with snow, I found these two treasures! A 1912 Barber and a trade token from the late 1900's. I had many other signals that were deep in the frozen ground.
What amazed me was that, I knew these two targets were good by the sound and the graph! I talked to my buddy later (He sold me the machine). He asked if I had converted to White's! I have to say, I have seen the light (or White's). It can only get better from now on! Even if my buddy continues to say "I told you so".
Thank you,Michael (WI)

Prior ready to be England's 'finisher'
Keep up to date with England's progress throughout the World Cup - click here for match reports, reaction, exclusive videos and live photos
Matt Prior's first reaction is panic when he hears he is England's World Cup 'finisher' - but he will do nothing of the sort when the job needs to be done.
The wicketkeeper-batsman, an inhabitant of most batting positions in his 61 one-day internationals so far, finds himself down at six to accommodate Kevin Pietersen's surprise switch to opening.
Prior has had to become accustomed to regular shunts up and down the order - and knows his return to number six brings with it a new challenge, to fill the Eoin Morgan role.
The absence of the Irishman, thought until breaking his finger and therefore missing this tournament to be a banker to prosper here, means someone needs to at least approximate his effectiveness.
That someone, after Pietersen's promotion, is Prior - and he is ready for the challenge.
"The minute anyone says the word 'finisher', you panic a little bit and think, 'that's a lot of responsibility'. But I love being a part of a team, and you want to be a cog in the wheel and one of those that wins games and helps set up games.
"Being a 'finisher' gives you the responsibility, and I enjoy that. I hope I can embrace that, knowing it's going to be an important part of this World Cup.
"I don't think Eoin Morgan's boots can be filled – he's a phenomenal player - but I'll certainly try my best."
Prior could be forgiven mixed feelings over his lack of opportunity to establish himself in any one position but the 28-year-old is a team player.
He said: "It's a very positive move for me. The middle overs in this World Cup are going to be very important – playing the spin and the seam bowlers with a lot of cutters and slower balls, trying to manipulate the ball around.
"It's going to be hard. But playing on the sub-continent is something I feel confident about, so I'm looking forward to it."
If Prior could pick his own position it might not be six. But he knows he cannot - so will continue to give it his best shot, wherever he is deployed.
"I've always thought opening suited my game better. But the way the last couple of games have gone I've found a tempo I'm very comfortable with.
"I don't think, opening, I managed to get that tempo ever, which was hugely frustrating because I know that if I get that tempo right I can be very, very successful. Right now, this role is suiting me and I feel very comfortable in it."
Prior averages 25 in ODIs, compared to almost 43 in Tests, and he said: "People throw stats around and say your one-day stats aren't that good. They aren't, but I'm working very hard to improve them.
"I've also had this all my ODI career - a few games here, then moved and chopped and changed a lot.
"But that's one-day cricket. You have to adapt - from wicket to wicket, from game to game, from team to team - and you have to bat wherever you're put."
In any case, after being a long shot for this tournament up until last month - when it seemed Steve Davies was England's preferred limited-overs wicketkeeper - Prior is not about to quibble.
"I just want to be in this team, and I'm delighted to be playing in this World Cup. A few months ago that wasn't the case, and I would have done anything to be here.
"Now I'm here, I'm just very happy. This is the role I've been given, and I hope I can do well."
England's first assignment is Tuesday's Group B opener against the Netherlands in Nagpur - where Prior will face ex-Sussex team-mate Bas Zuiderent, in a team which memorably beat the hosts in the 2009 ICC World Twenty20 at Lord's.
Prior added: "The one thing I do know is that they're very keen to cause an upset.
"I met up with Bas last night. They're very excited about being here and causing an upset and taking one of the big teams down.
"They're a team you absolutely cannot be complacent against. We've seen what happened in the past and we don't want that to happen again."

I'm quite confused with all the ssh security stuff. I am trying to reconfigure a system that is currently broken for reasons unknown. Machine A is your personal computer that you use whenever you're at home. Machine B is the head node of an HPC cluster and all the other machines C are all identically configured machines which share the home directories of machine B. This is an HPC cluster if you haven't guessed. How would I configure passwordless ssh between any nodes B or C. A can only get to C through sshing into B
Not sure whether you want to specify that it should only work if you come from A?
grawity's answer is probably better wrt security, but here's an answer for speed of setup and/or working from multiple A's..
Going on your whole... "machines C are all identically configured machines which share the home directories of machine B"
This'll mean anyone on B or C... (or any machine with access to that home directory's .ssh/) will be able to ssh between them at will, wheras I think grawity's requires you to have come from A, and have set up that machine appropriately.

Meeks is not a candidate.
Davidson is.
Davidson is.
why would Davidson be a candidate? It is normally coordinators who excell who get looks. Davidson isn't regarded as one of the better ones
Hasn't he developed one of the best rushing offenses in the league year after year even with a severely limited passing attack and qb?
don't really want to argue about it but he's always been competitive, has built something, and a new coach would just be starting all over again. players in place sure, but you think we're gonna go with someone who is just like fox, and will keep all assistants and schemes in place? losing fox will most likely be a step back, and don't expect miracle seasons like gruden got with the bucs, or tomlin with the steelers.
If a miracle can happen in New Orleans it can happen here especially since we have the talent. whoever gets this team will effectively be getting a corvette with a flat tire, fix it and lets roll even if it takes a year or 2. Fox has always done less with more and thats indicative of his record. I dont miss 'the DE formerly with the Panthers' and I wont miss Fox.
I think Fox is gone after this season win or lose.He will get a good job.
I am more worried at the fact that everyone else is under 1 year deals..Fox could leave and take the entire coaching staff with him.lol
I didn't realize he was just our running offensive coordinator.
If you're going to make the argument that Jake handicapped what he could do, then you have to credit Williams and Stewart with doing the opposite.
I think Davidson has certainly contributed to our success on the ground, but I want to see what he can do through the air before I even entertain the idea of Davidson as head coach.
I think most of our success in recent years, especially on the ground, has been a result of our players' ability rather than scheme or coaching.
FWIW: There was some discussion that Davidson doesn't have free rein to run his offense. I wonder if there is any truth to that and what it would look like if he could really do his own thing??
So it was Hurney
FWIW: There was some discussion that Davidson doesn't have free run to run his offense. I wonder if there is any truth to that and what it would look like if he could really do his own thing??
Could be.
For what it's worth, I do think it's a bit telling that no coordinator under Fox save for I think Del Rio has received a significant promotion (and he was here for just a year). I guess the case could be made for McCoy as Denver's offensive coordinator.
There is no John Fox coaching tree. I think we develop coaches about as well as we do wide receivers.
Didnt Meat say nothing happens unless ok'd by foxy. Has the playbook changed that much since Davidson came to Carolina?
Fox intervened and took over meetings from Meeks. Never has happened for Davidson. Not hard to see who may be the HC candidate

How We Got Guantanamo
The Cuban situation was confused, but the Marines were ready. They landed, and our first overseas base was soon well in hand
February 1962 | Volume 13, Issue 2
That afternoon under the guns of the Oregon, the Marblehead, and the monitor Yosemite (like many officers present, also a Civil War veteran), Huntington's Marine battalion landed in cutters towed by the steam launches from the ships. Tents were put up on what appeared to be the most appropriate site: the slopes of the hill overlooking the bay, atop which Pareja's blockhouse had stood. As a supposed precaution against yellow fever, the Marines set fire to a handful of adjacent shacks. All the while ships' bands played ragtime, and sweating Marines unloaded the gear and manhandled it ashore. The first United States troops to invade Cuba were on the beach in good order. Not a shot had been fired. "There was an enthusiastic demonstration," said a contemporary account, "as the Stars and Stripes were raised over the first American camp on Cuban soil." To record the event, the Marines even had a combat correspondent, none other than Stephen Crane, author of The Red Badge of Courage, now representing the New York Herald. Despite the realism of his famous war novel, Crane had yet to receive his baptism of fire.
Save for the usual starts and alarms of a first night ashore, the battalion was unmolested, and next day continued work on the camp. Progress was excellent, according to Seaman Cross: "they expect to have the cable work soon and the Harbor well under Hand … the latest report is that the Cubans are flocking in to Huntington's camp."
True enough, Colonel Huntington's first visitor that afternoon was a guerrilla leader, Laborde, styling himself colonel in the Army of Cuba. Laborde, who had helped McCalla with pilotage, brought news of the Spaniards. Several hundred, he reported, were concentrated at Cuzco Hill, near which was a well, the only one in the region, some two miles southeast of the Marine camp.
Laborde might have saved his breath. While he and Huntington were conferring, the Spaniards announced themselves. In a swift ambush, they poured a volley at close range into a two-man outpost in the thickets, killing both sentinels, whose bodies bore more than eight wounds. Two Marine privates, William Dumphy and Charles McColgan, thereby became the first American soldiers to die in Cuba. The attackers melted away, and all the pursuing patrols found were tracks and spent cartridge cases from the Spaniards' Mausers.
Soon after sundown, snipers fired into the camp, where the Marines lay on their arms. Four times thereafter, each time from a different direction, the enemy Mausers cracked, while the Marines replied with their Lees. "It needs little practice," noted Stephen Crane in his detached way, "to tell the difference in sound between the Lee and the Mauser. The Lee says 'Prut!' … The Mauser says 'Pop!'—plainly and frankly pop, like a soda-water bottle being opened close to the ear …"
After midnight the Spaniards formed for a night attack. Firing intensified from the ridges and ravines to the south and southeast. Manning battle stations, Marines answered with all their weapons, while the five-inch rapid-fire guns of the Marblehead hammered the mountain ridge a half-mile behind the camp. Roused by the din, Crane hugged the ground with"… a thousand rifles rattling; with the field guns booming in your ears; with the diabolic Colt automatic clacking; with the roar of the Marblehead coming from the bay, and, last, with Mauser bullets sneering always in the air a few inches over one's head."
Whatever their original intentions, the Spaniards found this burst of fire enough to dissuade them from closing with the Marines, and, as day approached, the fire slackened and died. For all the sound and fury, there were but six American casualties: two Marines dead, three others wounded; and the assistant surgeon, Dr. John B. Gibbs of the Navy, fatally shot through a lung. "He was dying hard," said Crane. "Hard. He was long past groaning. There was only the bitter strife for air which pulsed out into the night in a clear, penetrating whistle with intervals of terrible silence in which I held my own breath in the common unconscious aspiration to help…"
On the two succeeding nights it was the same. Again, in Huntington's words, the same "persistent and trifling attacks" out of the rocky, cactus-lined gullies, murdering sleep and burning up ammunition.
These attacks on the camp proved its location to be greatly exposed to enemy approaches through the thick brush. Consequently Huntington moved the camp toward lower ground, and the hill was made the main defensive position. But there was another problem: Commander Reiter, out in the bay aboard the Panther, found that his ship rode poorly after the Marines' equipment was unloaded. Thereupon he had the reserves of rifle ammunition judiciously distributed below as ballast, a measure which greatly increased his comfort. When Colonel Huntington sent for more ammunition, word came back that it was needed for ballast, and besides, if the Marines wanted any of their gear, they had better send working parties back to the ship to unload it. When Commander McCalla heard what Reiter had done, he sent off a sizzling order calculated to endear him to any Marine:

Hirsch. From the forthcoming book WILLIE MAYS: THE LIFE THE LEGEND by James S. Hirsch, authorized by Willie Mays to be published by Scribner, a Division of Simon & Schuster, Inc. Printed by permission.In the major leagues, Willie Mays was often described as the game's most exciting player, and his style can be traced to his years in the Negro Leagues with the Birmingham Black Barons. The black game placed greater emphasis on speed, creativity and daring, for it was designed to explicitly entertain fans at a time when organized entertainment was limited. Negro League games featured a range of performers, such as tap dancers, jugglers, vocalists and bands, and the players themselves were part of the show. Just as segregation fostered the spirituals, blues and jazz, the strict racial divide allowed Negro baseball players to develop their own athletic imprint.When Willie Mays arrived at Birmingham's Rickwood Field, in 1948 at age 17, he had been given no assurances that he would make the team. He was given a faded uniform (number 21) with BIRMINGHAM across the chest and a cap inscribed with three Bs on the front."Go shag some flies," the manager Piper Davis told him. The Black Barons centerfielder, Norman Robinson, was a 5'8" speedster with a weak arm, and Davis had heard about Willie's gunshots from the outfield.His new teammates were skeptical. "I ain't never seen a ballplayer like that in my life," Bill Powell, a righthanded pitching ace, recalled. "When he came out as a little ol' boy, his pants were too big for him, his bat was too heavy."The doubleheader against the Cleveland Buckeyes began, and Mays, sitting out the first game, was doubtful as well. He was more than 10 years younger than most of his teammates. He wasn't nervous about his age -- he had always played with older boys or grown men -- but these guys were bigger and stronger than anyone he'd played with. And they were good. He didn't appreciate how good until he reached the major leagues; the Black Barons, he believed, were equal to anything he saw there.He just sat."Watch," Davis said. "Watch what's going on."The Black Barons won the first game, and before the next one began, the players gathered in the clubhouse, cooling off and drinking sodas. Mays felt isolated, alone. Then Davis approached him. "I'm going to let you play the second game," he whispered. "I don't know how you're going to do. Play leftfield and give it your best shot."Davis called over the equipment manager, Roosevelt Atkins, and handed him a slip of paper. "Roo, hang this lineup in the dugout." Davis looked at Willie and winked. Listed seventh in the order was "Mays, LF."The manager was standing near home plate when he heard one of his players say, "That little boy's in left field." Others crowded around the lineup card and were complaining as well.Davis returned to the dugout and asked, "How's the lineup look to you fellows? If anybody don't like it, there's the clubhouse, and you can go back in there and take off your uniform if you want to. And you can take it with you."He had no takers.Mays had to face Chet Brewer, a tall righthander who entered the Negro Leagues with the Kansas City Monarchs in 1925, six years before Willie was born. In this instance, youth prevailed -- Mays rapped two singles. After the game, Davis told Willie that he was hired and the Black Barons would pay him $250 a month.Davis knew that all Willie needed was the opportunity. "He was an infant compared to the folks he was going to be playing with, but you could see the talent in him," he recalled. "He had that something special inside."His job was to teach Willie on the field and protect him off it. In truth, he tried to protect him on the field as well. Mays was not expected to be an everyday player, but Robinson broke his ankle, leaving centerfield open. The job was suddenly Willie's, though the corner outfielders tried to take advantage of him. One game, when a ball was hit to right or left, the other outfielders yelled, "Come on, Willie! Come on, Willie!" forcing him to make long runs.Davis would have none of it, and between innings, he called over the offending Black Barons. "You're going to have to earn your money," he barked. "We can get anybody to stand out there and yell, 'Come on, Willie!' I don't want you running him foul line to foul line."While Mays was precocious, he was still unpolished. His arm was as powerful as rumored, but Davis instructed him to charge the ball as fast as possible, especially with a runner on second base. This advice, in hindsight, seems obvious, but the practice wasn't common at the time. In organized ball, outfielders were instructed to field grounders on one knee to ensure that the ball didn't skip past them. When Mays reached the major leagues, he stunned baserunners when he charged the ball -- he played the outfield like the infield.Davis found other ways to help. Playing second base, he would signal to Mays in centerfield what pitch was being thrown, and on the bench he would tell him what the pitchers would try to do and who would knock him down. On baserunning, he implored Mays to slide more aggressively into fielders who tried to block him from the base. At the plate, Mays struggled with the curveball, but Davis told him to stand straighter, keep his shoulder pointed toward the pitcher, and resist lunging. Ironically, major league pitchers would later try to get Mays out with hard stuff, high and tight, because he had learned to kill curveballs.Davis emphasized forcing the action, speed and aggression, especially on the bases. "If you think you can make, try it," he'd say. Toughness was equally important. In a game against the Memphis Red Sox, Mays sped toward home plate and barreled into All-Star catcher Clinton (Casey) Jones. Mays and the ball arrived simultaneously, the runner's spikes catching Jones high on the leg and leaving a long, bloody gash. Jones dropped the ball, but Mays felt terrible. When he reached the dugout, he headed straight for Davis. "Piper, I couldn't help it. I didn't have to hit him like that." Davis took him aside. "Willie, that's the man to hit. He's got all that equipment on and he beats up on everyone, so he's the one to tear up. He won't block the plate on you no more."On another occasion, Mays hit a home run off Chet Brewer. His next time up, the veteran pitcher drilled him in the arm with a fastball. No ball had ever hit him so hard. Mays crumbled to the ground and began to cry. When he looked up, Davis was glowering over him and kicked him."Skip, they're throwing at me," Mays said. His screechy voice rose even higher when he was excited.Davis made no effort to help him up. "Boy, you see first base?""Yes, sir.""Point to it.""It's right down there," Mays said, motioning down the line."Then get up and go down there, and the first chance you get, you steal second, and then third."Davis turned and walked back to the dugout, and Mays trotted down to first. He stole second and then third. He scored on a fly ball.Back in the dugout, Davis said, "That's how you handle a pitcher."Willie saw "shadow ball" in his first year with the Black Barons. The game stopped in the seventh inning, and, as he recalls, "they played baseball without the baseball." His teammates were running around the bases and sliding into home just before the tag. "It was fun and entertaining, and people loved it," he says, "but the real value was the mental part. You had to think what you were going to do with the ball even when there was no ball. You had to exercise your mind."Mays had always competed to win, but now, playing before large crowds, some reaching 10,000, he realized he could be more than a baseball player. "In the Negro Leagues, we were all entertainers," he says. "And my job was to give the fans something to talk about each game."In later years, he would contrive plays to incite fan reaction -- such as slipping to the ground before making a catch -- but at this age his natural ability was enough to generate howls, particularly on the bases and in the outfield. "He was the most exciting young player you've ever seen," outfielder James Zapp recalls. "It was a thrill just to watch him in a rundown because most of the time, he'd get out of that hot box." Adds Bill Powell, "He did some impossible catches in the outfield, and then people would just stand there and shake their heads."On one drive to left center, Willie and the leftfielder arrived at the ball simultaneously and nearly collided. The leftfielder missed the ball, but Willie leaped and caught it barehanded, then threw it to the infield before anyone knew what happened. It was remarkable -- a barehanded catch deep in the outfield -- except Willie did it twice more. Using his oversized hand like a glove, he learned to charge and scoop up base hits with his right hand and throw the ball home in one fluid motion. "Nobody," Davis later said, "and I mean nobody, ever saw anybody throw a ball from the outfield like him, or get rid of it so fast."The Negro Leagues' quintessential showman was Leroy (Satchel) Paige, the ageless righthander, all legs and arms, whose windmill windup, famed hesitation pitch, and memorable quotes fueled his popularity. His unerring control and ability to change speeds also made him, according to some experts, the greatest pitcher of all time -- any color, any league.Mays faced Paige in one game, in the summer of 1948, when Paige, 41 and playing for the Kansas City Monarchs, had been pitching professionally for more than 20 years. Mays knew little of the legend, and his first time up, he hit a fastball for a double. As he dusted himself off, Paige walked toward him. "That's it," he muttered.Next time up, Paige walked halfway to home plate and said to Mays, "Little boy, I'm not gonna trick you now. I'm gonna throw you three fastballs, and you're gonna sit down."Paige threw three fastballs, and Mays sat down.The greatest year for baseball in Birmingham's history was 1948. Its white team drew more than 440,000 fans, a Southern Association record, on its way to winning the Dixie Series. Shortstop Artie Wilson of the Black Barons hit .403, winning the batting crown for the second straight year, and the team won the Negro American League Championship, taking the series against the Kansas City Monarchs, 4-3. In the second game, Willie's game-tying single in the bottom of the ninth allowed the Black Barons to win in extra innings.In the World Series, Birmingham played the Negro National League champion Homestead Grays, which over the years had produced such stars such as Cool Papa Bell and Josh Gibson and this year featured future Hall of Famer Buck Leonard (known as "the Black Lou Gehrig"). The Grays, who had beaten the Black Barons in the World Series in 1942 and '43, won the first two games of this series.In Game 3, Mays made a leaping catch against the centerfield wall and also threw out Leonard at second base. With the score tied in the bottom of the ninth and two men on and two out, Mays stepped to the plate and singled sharply up the middle, winning the game. But it was the Black Barons' only victory of the series, with Homestead winning, 4-1.Willie Mays had proved he belonged. He struggled at the plate, hitting only .226 for the year, but he still made his mark in the field and on the bases. The Birmingham World first mentioned him on September 28: "Willie Howard Mays is the find of the year, if not the rookie of the year. He can hit, field, throw and deliver in the pinch. He lacks experience and has a feeble batting average. But he will break up your ball game and turn hits into putouts with sensational catches."The season produced one of the most famous photographs in Negro League history. The picture, by Ernest Withers, features the Black Barons in their brick clubhouse after they won the league championship. The jubilant players, many with their shirts off, are pressed together, smiling, cramped in a corner beneath an exposed lightbulb and flimsy hangers -- a gritty, victorious image of camaraderie, unity and love. But in the back row, hidden by arms and shoulders, there is a smooth ebony face without a smile, only wonderment and innocence, a boy among men.Cross-country bus rides became part of the romantic lore of the Negro Leagues, a celebration of male bonding and roadside adventure that satisfied the wanderlust of any ballplayer. But the rides were also grueling marathons marked by cheap hotels, lousy food and -- particularly in the South -- racial indignities. For Willie Mays, the endless hours on the bus, combined with his sojourns in faraway cities, gave him a view of the country that most of his high school -- age peers could only dream about. These experiences contributed to his sense that baseball was really one big traveling family, quarrelsome at times, but beholden to the greater good of the clan. Willie was still protected, but his time with these older men, intimately familiar with the angry, violent subtext of Jim Crow, broadened his education on how to survive the country's racial codes.The cross-country experience was full of contradictions. Negro Leaguers might be denied food or gas by the very people who would patronize their games later that day. Their exploits made them heroes in their own community but reminded them of their subordinate position in the country at large."It was an arduous existence, which consisted of long rides, low pay, and a game almost every day," said Monte Irvin, who starred with the Newark Eagles in the 1940s before playing with the New York Giants. Players would wash their clothes in the morning and dry them by holding them out the window on their ride to the next town. Barred from hotels in some cities, teams would sometimes sleep on the bus, in rooming houses, or even in jails. "The traveling conditions were almost unbelievable," Irvin said. "That was the tragic part about traveling, particularly in the South, where we couldn't even stay in the third- or fourth-rate hotels."Negro Leaguers later bristled at this vagabond image -- puttering across America, nearly broke, bordering on desperation -- as obscuring the dignity of their efforts and their own resourcefulness. Roy Campanella, who began his career in 1937 with the Washington Elite Giants, recalled that the bus combined home, dressing room, dining room and hotel. "Rarely were we in the same city two days in a row," he said. "Mostly, we played by day and traveled by night; sometimes we played both day and night and usually in two different cities ... [But] I loved the life despite the killing schedule."As the youngest Black Baron, Mays sat in the back, over the rear wheel, and watched this traveling ecosystem. Card games drained a lot of time. Other players sang gospel songs, told jokes or read newspapers; third baseman John Britton studied the sports pages and told Willie how many hits DiMaggio had. Some players discussed their sexual conquests. But the most popular topic was simply baseball.Some rides would start at midnight, hurtling past cotton fields and prairies so the team could avoid a hotel bill. A different city every night: Kansas City or Chicago, Little Rock or Memphis. They would eat out of paper bags or stop at grocery stores along the way. At one bus station in New Orleans, black cooks and waitresses would give them special service in the back.The Black Barons demonstrated character and pride in ways beyond winning games. How you looked also made a statement. "We were one of the sharpest dressed teams in the league," Bill Greason says. "We walked off that bus and were well respected. We wanted to represent our city well, our people well and our team well."If a player didn't have nice clothes, his teammates chipped in and bought him some. Such gestures were common in the Negro Leagues. The teams didn't have trainers, so the players gave one another rubdowns. The ballparks didn't have lights, so the guys strung their own. The owners didn't have money, so the teammates shared what they had. "It was the togetherness," Greason says. "We all dealt with family problems, but we all helped each other out. [The Black Barons] were the best group I've ever been around."Willie received a pointed education about race in America. Growing up in the mill town of Fairfield, Ala., he had been relatively insulated from overt hostility, his carefree personality putting everyone, black and white, at ease, his athletic achievements making him a budding celebrity. The Black Barons cast race relations in a different light. They understood how tenuously they clung to their freedom as well as their lives.They played for a team in Birmingham, which was different from the rest of the country, even different from many other places in the South. Different -- as in more hostile to blacks. Controlled by white supremacists, the city crushed any hint of Negro defiance with swift, violent efficiency. That message was delivered in 1942, when a black man in Birmingham argued with a white bus driver about three cents in change. The man stepped off the bus, and the driver shot him six times. No charges were filed. The violence was organized and systemic. In 1947, a year before Mays joined the Black Barons, a reenergized Ku Klux Klan adopted a new tool to keep black families out of white neighborhoods: dynamite.On August 18, 1947, six sticks were used to blow up the house of a black man who had successfully sued to end Birmingham's racist zoning laws. Within two years, so many black homes had been detonated in one area that it was known as Dynamite Hill, and the city was nicknamed Bombingham. Its most famous bombing, killing four black girls at the Sixteenth Street Baptist Church in 1963, culminated years of terrorism against the African-American community. In the civil rights era, the man most closely associated with using police-state tactics to uphold segregation was Eugene (Bull) Connor, the city's police commissioner. He was elected to office in 1937 and was responsible, in 1963, for turning fire hoses and attack dogs against peaceful demonstrators.Birmingham's suffocating bigotry stunned the black journalist Carl T. Rowan, who visited the city around 1950 and encountered passive Negroes who "dare not be seen" on any street after sundown. He discovered that blacks in Birmingham lived under a shadow of intimidation and oppression, and he was left "aghast by the obvious fear in the eyes of innocent people."All blacks in the South were in peril, for southern authorities had long been arbitrarily arresting African Americans on trumped-up charges, such as vagrancy or loitering, and leasing them into corporate slave camps. Douglas A. Blackmon, in Slavery by Another Name, documents the pervasive use of this practice in the coal mines surrounding Birmingham; headstones still mark the sunken graves of those who died in collapsed prison mines. Blackmon estimates that in 1930, "the great majority" of African Americans in the Black Belt of the South were almost certainly trapped in some form of coerced labor.Negro baseball players, in comparison, led a charmed life, so the Black Barons had good reason to bear their resentments quietly. At the 1948 Negro League World Series, several games were played at Pelican Park in New Orleans, and black fans, including the wives of players, were separated by chicken wire, corralled like farm animals. But those affronts could be endured compared to other forms of oppression.Greason, seven years older than Mays, was the second youngest player on the team. He says the veterans taught all the young players how to survive in an unjust, unforgiving world. "With all the rejection we had to suffer, you had to learn to laugh and keep going," Greason says. "Don't let anybody know they hit your weak spot. Just keep going as if you didn't hear it, and try to make your enemy your friend. If you perform well enough, they'll come to your side."This conciliatory approach echoed Piper Davis's advice to Willie on getting hit by a pitch: brush yourself off, run down to first, and steal a base. Physical retaliation or verbal sparring serves no purpose.The Black Barons taught Mays that defiance was self-defeating, or as Mays describes it: "Keep your mouth closed." He credits his father for insisting that he remain positive, but the Black Barons prepared him to overcome racial assaults. "I was programmed," he explains, "to do these things before I got into professional ball. You had to understand that they were going to call you names, you had to understand that whatever you did it was going to be negative because of who you were. I knew that stuff from the Black Barons."Mays repeatedly uses the word "programmed" in describing his preparation for the outside world, a hardwiring of stoicism and strength that no adversary could reverse.

After seven days of deliberations, jurors in the federal fraud trial of charter school founder Dorothy June Brown acquitted the veteran educator on six counts late Thursday and said they were here hopelessly deadlocked on the remaining 54.
U.S. District Judge R. Barclay Surrick accepted the partial verdict, thanked jurors for their service over the last two months, and discharged them.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Joan Burnes said the government planned to retry Brown, 76, on the counts on which jurors were deadlocked.
"We accept the jury's verdict, but we look forward to the retrial," she said.
Brown declined to comment.

H5N1 is actually now being transmitted from Human to Human in India and starting to spread.
But, hey, stick your heads in the sand if you must ...
"what's a guy gotta do to buy a flu-fearer's love?"
M2F, apparently.
I think you mean "has probably been transmitted thus a couple of times in specific circumstances". It's not "starting to spread". It's not in the top 1,000 of causes of human death yet.
Where are all the scare stories about malaria, which kills more every year than all the flus put together?
I do have to say that the fight between Obama and Clinton isn't nearly as bitter -- or entertaining -- as the one between AW and ECB. Lucha Libre Au-Go-Go!
I thought Erica was looking forward to an avian flu pandemic. Just to prove a point or some shit.
Or to cull the herd.
H5N1 has not gone human-to-human yet. there are some possible cases but it has not mutated to facilitate airborne transmission, and it is unclear whether or not this will even happen.
there actually have been a few scare stories about malaria in recent years, mostly due to it's resurgence in the US. i suspect it doesn't get as much flashy press because you have to live in [or visit] a "malaria zone" in order to get it.
bird flu will rapidly become a global pandemic if it goes human, and probably kill on a scale that makes malaria seem rather quaint.
"But... Hillary has a VaJayJay! Nuf said." - E.C.B. (Attributed)
ECB you forgot to include a weapon and few dozen boxes of ammo in your stockpile. You didn't even begin to ponder the lawlessness and martial law aspects of an extended breakdown in the social fabric of society.
If you think everyone is going to play nice and all get along you are extremely naieve at best.
All it takes is to look at what happened to those who stayed in their homes during Katrina. Thugs and looters will come looking for those of you who were smart enough to prepare, but foolish enough to not arm yourself and protect your house/family....
Don't believe me? Willing to bet your life on it?
Reality Check
"H5N1 has not gone human-to-human yet."
Not according to Reuters. They say it has. In India. Today's news.
Spread of avian flu by drinking water
Transmission of avian flu by direct contact to infected poultry is an unproved assumption from the WHO. Infected poultry can everywhere contaminate the drinking water. All humans have contact to drinking water. Special in cases of local water supplies with young and fresh H5N1 contaminated water from low local wells, cisterns, tanks or rain barrels this pathway can explain small clusters in households (24°C: virulence of influenza viruses 2 days, 7°C: virulence of influenza viruses 14 days).

This recipe was just ... okay. It wasn't HORRIBLE, but I guess it didn't work too well for me. I had to add a lot more water than called for, and the vegetables sort of "wilted" anyway. The flavor was rather flat, too, despite what I thought was quite a large amount of herbs. And it yields more like four small servings; if it's supposed to serve eight, then those are about two-tablespoon servings! It's a nice idea, though. Thanks for posting.

"Who knew that wars could be won with well placed guitars, a bank of vocals and choruses of quite gigantic stature? The Grip Weeds, that's who. Let them show you how."
"This sonic manifesto couldn't be any clearer or better defined... immensely enjoyable."
"Pure shock and awe. Highly Recommended."
"That once-in-a-lifetime everything-comes-together kind of album; while the songs differ, there's a stylistic and thematic unity that thread each track into one cohesive unit."
"This album is quite the surprise, and a pleasant one, in that the band sound stays intact while the power is amped up."
"The 'fab' Grip Weeds offer up 17 swirling, slightly trippy sonic land mines that are simultaneously catchy as hell and slightly dangerous... don't miss this one."

"Strange Change Machine was a hard act to follow, but the band has done it brilliantly. There is so much power here, the recording -- even streamed -- is stunning! Can't wait to get to know it better, but it's made a tremendous First Impression!"
"A fascinating series of dusty gems culled from the trippy center of their minds."
"A delight...twisting, turning and churning with [each] brain-bending measure."
"Soaring, syrup-free harmonies...sashays in on a groove that could get even the staunchest wallflower out on the dance floor."

"Rarely have we heard a collection of rare and unreleased tracks that so closely simulates the sound of a brand new album."

With the Grip Weeds' trademark sounds so full of holiday spirit and cheer, this record will put anyone who hears it, regardless of religious persuasion or Scrooge-like inclinations, under the influence of Christmas."

"Brothers Kurt and Rick Reil draw on everyone's favourite 1960s psyche pop bands on their generous double-CD... the final tracks refocus the Weed's apparently undiminished powers... Three Stars."

Strawberry/Kiwi Flavor
You wanted a bold and fearless adventure? Don't look any further, open up a canister of Delicious Reds 8000 Strawberry/Kiwi and the scent will take you on a journey of indescribable pleasure. Mix it in a glass of water or your favorite drink and you will experience a healthy delight beyond compare.
Delicious Reds 8000 is the best Fruity Greens Drink in the market, and it's Red. Not bad, huh! How did we get the red color? First, we used Certified Organic Freeze Dried Berries that have cool colors, raspberries both black and red, bilberries, goji berries, cherries, cranberries and strawberries, to mention a few and with that we made the base.
Then we added the scary looking veggies that we are suppose to eat every day, alfalfa, chlorella, kelp, broccoli, kale, carrots, radish, cabbage, parsley and many more. It seemed that it was done but our mad scientists is never done. To make the taste even more interesting she added a unique custom Strawberry/Kiwi scent and flavor, enhanced the formula with two proprietary Detox Blends, LiverOx K and ColonOx K along with a new Spectrum K Antioxidant Blend. The result is the best super antioxidant greens drink in red color. And Finally The End!
Oops and here is a message from the boss:
Focusing on flavors and scent that inspire me with the goal of offering 100% natural greens with high Orac led me to create this Gluten-Free formula for all those with digestive sensitivities. Gluten, a primary component in wheat plays a major role in flavor. Even though to formulate the canister that you are holding was a challenge, the reward is in your hands and I truly hope that you and your whole family enjoy it as much as I did creating it.

Has anyone undertaken a study of the chord voicings that Kurt likes to use? Will this be a feature in his book? (I hope so) It will be a best seller when it finally hits
Kurt's chords?(4 posts)
I know this (as I have just write once):
6-7-x-7-7-5 played with the thumb for the sixth string. you can use this for E half diminished, for F#7alt, for Gm13(maj7)! you can try this on other roots and see if you like it!
Kurt says that often he likes to put fingers randomly on fretboard with some open strings and then try to judge the sound and keep some new chords from that. I see him doing that and then playing Darn That Dream using one of them very often!
I've been meaning to transcribe some chord stuff but I keep forgetting. I really love his voicings on Mark Turner's Dharma Days.
I love EVERYTHING about Mark Turner's Dharma Days

Shortly after patch 4.3 was released, we became aware that some players were abusing an exploit to obtain loot from the same Raid Finder bosses multiple times in a single raid lockout period (one week). The Raid Finder loot mechanic is of course intended to only allow a person to roll on boss loot drops once per raid lockout period. The raid lockout mechanic has been a mainstay of the World of Warcraft rules since Onyxia and Molten Core, ensuring that no one can obtain loot from a boss more than once per lockout. Due to the nature of the exploit and the clear intent of those who abused it, they've been issued notices and given temporary suspensions from the game. We're also working to remove all Raid Finder items from those who used the exploit.

If Wilder is such a stud that all these guys keep pulling out in fear then his team needs to have a backup option that doesn't involve going down to the local leisure centre and pulling the first random scrub they find. Personally speaking I don't think Wilder should be fighting anyone on that level until he steps his game up. There are plenty of solid journeymen in need of a payday that would put rounds under his belt, if Wilder is actually interested in gaining experience and not just maintaining his smoke and mirrors KO streak.
I don't think anyone said Wilder is the most feared man in the division.
I believe I specifically pointed to only one fighter who backed out and that was Tyson Fury.
Before teh Price fight Deontay and his promotions main deal was refining his craft and training him how to box like a professional and protect his chin.
Wilder should stay busy and increase his ring experience and skill level, via camps and sparring with fighters who are of higher class than him, like Wlad and Haye.
Deontay isn't hyped on a KO streak by the way, that was someone else, he got KO'd the moment he stepped up.

Jesus Busso Estopellan Pleads Not Guilty to Murdering ASU Pre-Med Student and Friend Over Drug Deal With "Jamaican"
Jesus Busso Estopellan, who admitted murdering an Arizona State University student and his friend earlier this month, was in Maricopa County Superior Court this morning where he pleaded not guilty to two counts of murder.
Estopellan has already admitted to police that he murdered the two men in late June after getting ordered to do so by an unidentified "Jamaican" following a weed deal gone wrong.
According to court documents obtained by New Times, Estopellan told detectives he brokered a weed deal between victim Olek Wladyszewski, 19, and the "Jamaican" about three months ago. The "Jamaican," however, didn't honor the repayment agreement, and when confronted by Estopellan, he threatened him and his family.
Wladszewski, court records reveal, was arrested in May after telling police he was robbed of $500. It was determined he had earned that money by selling weed, which prompted a search of his car where police discovered marijuana, cocaine, and a semi-automatic pistol.

It's unclear if the person who stole the $500 is the "Jamaican" Estopellan says threatened him, but the theft occurred around the same time Estopellan claims he was told to off Wladszewski.
Either way, Estopellan told police the mysterious "Jamaican" told him "you need to take care of [Wladszewski]."
He says he was scared for himself and his family and began to formulate a plan to kill Wladszewski. He says he arranged a meeting with him to sell him some pills early Wednesday morning.
The other victim, 18-year-old pre-med student Tyler Webster, appears to have been in the wrong place at the wrong time -- Estopellan says his plan was only to kill Wladszewski and he was surprised when he showed up with Webster.
Estopellan told police he walked up to the car the two men were in and shot them both in the head.
When police got to the scene, they found Wladyszewski -- who was in the driver's seat of Webster's 2002 Mitsubishi Eclipse at the time -- dead. Webster, who reported the shooting to police, was unresponsive. He was taken to Scottsdale Healthcare Osborn Medical Center in critical condition. He was pronounced dead shortly after.
Estopellan, who is in the country illegally, was out on bail for a previous felony charge at the time. He remains in a Maricopa County jail without bond.
Estopellan's next court appearance is scheduled for September 1, in front of Court Commissioner Christine Mulleneaux.

The Paradox of Saving
Looking at graphs for the saving ratio, I noticed a paradox. When people felt it was a good time to save more, they actually saved less. When people felt it was a bad time to save, they actually save more. Is it a Good Time to Save? As part of the GFK consumer confidence survey. They ask a question – In view of the current economic situation – Is it a good time to save?
Can we save our way out of the Pension Crisis?
Readers Question. We hear much about the "pensions time bomb", as people tend to live longer and there is a bulge as "baby boomers" reach retirement age. We also hear much about the need to save for retirement. Saving *money* may mean people have more money in retirement but surely the real problem is to ensure there is more output; money is worth only what it can buy. Is there a risk that money saving will simply simply reduce current output and so reduce the income and incentives needed…

Broccoli with 3-Minute Lemon Sauce
This lemon sauce has a lot of flavor so you only need a little drizzle to dress up your broccoli florets!
- 6 cups raw broccoli florets, rinsed well
- 2 tablespoons lemon curd, available in jars
- 2 tablespoons fat-free half-and-half
- freshly ground pepper to taste
- Step 1
- Add the broccoli and 1/4 cup water to a microwave vegetable steamer container and cook on HIGH until broccoli is just tender and still bright green (about 3 minutes depending on the microwave).
- Step 2
- Meanwhile, add lemon curd and fat-free half-and-half to a small, nonstick saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring often, until blended and hot. Add pepper to taste if desired.
- Step 3
- Drizzle over broccoli and serve!
