Seeing as how the server browser seems to be working quite nicely, it seems that a matchmaking thread would be more proper.
At least, it should simplify things so players can avoid having to use Hamachi/etc.
This one should be used for everybody's contact info:
This is to be able to match with people. You know their email or instant messenger name, and then contact them. If not, matchmaking can be done by PM or something. Though if someone wants to make a thread for matchmaking particularly, be my guest.

You know it'd probably be a lot easier to organize these with Steam's friends list. You can also make community groups with their own chat rooms.
Not everyone has Steam...GASP!!
Anyway if anyone does, you can add me to your friends list and we can give this a shot. My account name is firstname.lastname@example.com.
That's like saying people "should" have big screen TVs. Not everyone does, not everyone wants one, and not everyone can afford one. It doesn't matter that steam is free, if there's no other reason to log on than to make a group, then what's the point?
If more organization is something people want, that's a different story. I know AOL instant messenger has chat rooms, as does yahoo messenger. And if neither of those work, there could be multi-IM sessions.
Ah, I see. That's a good argument, but personally I would say that Steam is not the best choice then. Maybe if there was some other way to do it. I know hamachi is a good option, since you may have to use hamachi anyway if the other player is behind a firewall. But I think since Tos added a master server that hamachi had become obsolete for me, as players can connect without it if I lower my firewall to medium.

If push comes to shove, I guess I could lend my talents for a custom-built chat server if I can ever figure out how to get the .Net net code to work without the debugger yelling at me.
I think that a chat room of some sort would definitely simplify setting up games and finding other players. I'll lend whatever support I can to any efforts to create one.
Not a matter of willingness, really. More a matter of learning what needs to be done and how to do it. I can find it, I just have to find the right search parameters to coax the right answer outta MSDN.
Short answer is, I can do it, I just need some time.
Y'all are great! We're lucky to have so many talented & dedicated taffers to make Thief even better!
There's really no easier way to do it IMO; no matter what you do, it requires someone to "have" something to chat. In terms of implementing it to thief MP, that would be the most ideal, as it would mean no downloading of additional program(s).
HOWEVER, I believe that all windows users with windows XP could set up a "meeting" with Microsoft Net Meeting, perhaps?

Hey everyone,
I'm a long-time lurker on these boards, and I've been an avid fan of Thief since the first Thief came out way back when. I'd like to join in on any multiplayer options for Thief, if there are still spots available. I'd also like to offer any help, should it be needed. Thanks
Hi ShyGreenMoon. Welcome
I'm sure someone will want to play with you, that's what this thread is for! Maybe this weekend a few of us could start a game? Also, if anyone has XFire you could hit me up there... I've got a Clan that tracks Thief hours. :P

I used a beautiful ripe pineapple and young coconut juice. Delish!
yum yum yum! I used canned pineapple, but it turned out good :) Definitely is something I will be using as a base recipe though... I've got raspberries and such that I think might go really well in there.
First I bought what I thought was coconut milk only to find out that it was the creme of the coconut, so by the time I found the milk, my ginger went bad. So I wound up using fresh pineapple, gala apple, fresh pineapple and ground ginger. I used a blender to mix it all up and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by the ginger flavor to this rendition of a favorite pina colada beverage. Very yummy. Made for Veg 'N Swap tag #36.
There are times when I just can't find a really good whole pineapple, so went to my canned goods instead! I did put the pineapple chunks in the freezer until almost frozen & all the other ingredients were chilled in the frig before using! Absolutely loved this combo of flavors! A definite keeper! [Tagged, made & reviewed for one of my raw food partners in the Vegetarian/Vegan Recipe Swap 3]
I used canned pineapple because that's what I had. Loved the ginger in this. Might try blending with ice next time as this was very rich. Thanks for sharing. Made for ZWT3
Used a Gala apple. This is nice and refreshing. I doubled everything to serve 2 and used 1/2 cup ice cubes to quick chill the drink.

Alex Rodriguez
Alex Rodriguez to Retire After 2017 SeasonThe controversial Yankees star will hang it up after 24 years in the league.
Jeter, A-Rod and a Not So Fond Farewell to Farewell ToursBaseball's farewell tours should be retired—and given a farewell tour.
What If Alex Rodriguez's Testosterone and HGH Use Was Medically Justified?As all men age, their testosterone production lowers. So why do we blame A-Rod for seeking treatment?
A Former Bash Brother Trashes Yet AnotherGOP hopeful John McCain is selling tickets for seats on his Straight Talk Express. Cost: a $50 campaign donation. It's no Lincoln Bedroom, but the Coolidge Aisle Seat is lovely. Score: 6Another black eye for newspapers: the Los Angeles Times eats up a con man's tissue-thin lies for a story that pins a 1994 Tupac Shakur shooting on hip-hop mogul Puff Daddy. Score: 38In his new telleven-more-all book, steroidal ex-slugger Jose Canseco fingers Alex Rodriguez as a juicer without facts or full explanation. Must be lonely in the gutter. Score: 73
A Record Paycheck?Derek Jeter is on deck to break a baseball record. The Yankee shortstop is reportedly close to signing a deal for a $119 million jackpot paying out over seven years, which would make him the highest-salaried man in the game. But this is one record that isn't likely to stand for long. When Seattle's Alex Rodriguez and Ken Griffey Jr. become free agents next year, either one might break the $200 million mark. In the meantime, New York fans are applauding their favorite son's sweetheart deal. After all, he's helped bring home three championships in four years--and it's George Steinbrenner's money.

2012-13 men's golf in Hawaii.
Feb. 21, 2013
KAHUKU, HAWAII. – The Nevada men's golf team is in 12th place after the second round of the John Burns Intercollegiate hosted by Hawai`i.
Nevada, rebounded from a slow start yesterday and shaved nine strokes off their score as a team today after shooting a 14-over 302. Nevada sits five shots out of 11th place and 10 shots out off breaking the top 10.
Junior Ryan Mulvany leads the pack after shooting a four-over 76, and is tied for 18th with a five-over 149 for the tournament. Sophomore Andrew Cornella also shot a four-over 76 in the second round and is tied for 44th in the tournament with a eight-over 152.
Sophomore Taylor Knoll recovered from a slow start yesterday by shooting the lowest round of the day for the Pack with a one-over 73, and is tied for 44th with a eight-over 152. Junior Brian Knoll is tied for 66th and Gustavo Chuang is tied for 72nd.
Freshman Kit Carson shot a three-over 75, and is tied for 34th with a seven-over 151. Carson is competing individually, and his score does not count for the overall team score. This is Carson's first collegiate tournament.
"We showed signs of improvement today," said head coach Jacob Wilner. "But we were unable to get the ball in the hole like we are capable of doing. Tomorrow is another day of golf and we will continue to improve."
Top-ranked California leads the tournament after shooting a six-under 282 as a team, and has a 10-under 566 for the tournament. California's Joel Stalter leads the individual race after shooting a 2-under 70 and sits at a seven-under 137 for the tournament.
Nevada will play in the final 18-hole round tomorrow.

Alabama governor names drone task force
Published: Saturday, August 23, 2014 at 11:00 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, August 23, 2014 at 11:22 a.m.
MONTGOMERY | Gov. Robert Bentley has created a task force to look at the potential uses of drones in agriculture, conservation and law enforcement.
Bentley says the new Alabama Drone Task Force will review the Federal Aviation Administration requirements for the use of drones in Alabama and establish the necessary guidelines.
State Agriculture Commissioner John McMillan is chairman of the task force. McMillan says it's time for Alabama to be proactive with ideas that enable the rapidly developing drone technology to be a positive innovation for the long term.
Other task force members are state Transportation Director John Cooper, state Conservation Commissioner Gunter Guy, state Law Enforcement Secretary Spencer Collier and Montgomery Airport Authority board member Jimmy Reynolds.
The task force is supposed to develop a drone management plan before Jan. 15.

We are not big on salad dressings, so i just added 1/4 tsp of basil and oregano, 1tsp garlic and a shake of black pepper. We really enjoyed it. Thanks for the recipe.
This recipe is awesome! It was easy to make and definitely tastes even better the next day. I made it both with and without the cucumbers and I think I like it better without the strong taste of cucumber.

Description: An Irish married couple (Stephen Rea and Sinead Cusack) tend to define their lives according to the opinions of others. When little crises regarding his job and her parenting skills begin to develop, Rea and Cusack are devastated. When their friends and business acquaintances begin turning sour, they are debilitated. And when the planned renovation of their bathroom goes awry, they are utterly destroyed. The improvisational banter between the two stars was achieved by director Les Blair after extensive, laissez-faire rehearsals.~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide

I have a large site and the export doesn't work and the preview only shows 10 pages with the permalinks instead of the live links.
2.3 seems to be heading in the wrong direction. 2.2 was much, much better. I have a large site and right now I can not use the plugin even if the preview worked since it only shows 10 pages/posts.
This was one of the most important plugins I had installed as I have a very large site and need to make large changes from time to time. I hope the next release is more in line with a more functional 2.2 than 2.3 because right now the direction this is headed excludes large wordpress sites and companies.

Im learning java, coming from python there are quite a few things I don't fully understand that exist in java and the first of these has to be public and private declarations. I mean from a language that has no real visible public private declarations to a language where everything MUST be private, I understand the ground principle about what they do. Im asking 'why' they do it. Why should anyone care who touches there private parts? It shouldn't really be a problem if your a good programmer you know which bits you 'should' and 'should not' poke in code. So why the secrecy? Why hide and obscure and make things private from the world? Why care to start with.
We started with Q&A. Technical documentation is next, and we need your help.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, you can contribute.

As it currently stands, this question is not a good fit for our Q&A format. We expect answers to be supported by facts, references, or expertise, but this question will likely solicit debate, arguments, polling, or extended discussion. If you feel that this question can be improved and possibly reopened, visit the help center for guidance.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
(Opinionated answer follows.)
This is because Java is a bondage and discipline language, designed to cater for mediocre programmers. Python, otoh, is a language aimed at consenting adults who agree to expose their objects' private parts to each other, trusting other programmers not to abuse the undocumented/unguaranteed functionality offered to them. If they do and anything breaks, the person who broke stuff gets to keep the pieces.
Python does have some access control, such as
(To repeat what I said in the comment: I'm not saying that all Java programmers are mediocre. I'm just saying that the language is designed so that it can safely be used by such programmers.)
Because others people don't care nearly as much about your privates as you do. You decide what is and isn't private.
On a serious note, public things define the API - the contract with the outside world - it's an important decision to make. On the other hand, as much stuff as possible should be private - that's encapsulation. Welcome to OO.
You don't want other programmers accessing and possibly modifying your private variables. e.g.
All jokes aside, privates are useful for encapsulation. Plus, private constructors disallow subclassing and feature in the factory method pattern. Classes with private constructors only allow objects to be instantiated within this class (which can be done via a static public method for example).
So as you can see, privates can be quite useful....
This principle of hiding data members is known as Data Encapsulation.
From the article above:
You are free to declare every field in your class as public. Why this is not considered "good practice" is because in a multi-developer situation, where a codebase has to be maintainable over time (and after you leave), it is important for other people to be able to understand your classes (and how they should and should not be used). Making a field "private" is an excellent way to forcible indicate that this field is internal to the workings of the class and should not be modified from the outside. It's not about "obscuring", it's about "securing" and "maintaining" (see above posts about API and contract).
Sure, a "good programmer" would be able to eventually figure out the exact workings of your code, given enough time - but why would you not spare him or her that time by instead making the effort of only exposing the "public" functionality (the API) and hiding the stuff that should not be touched?
On a side-note, and purely for your benefit, not practicing proper data encapsulation and API/public interface discipline will make your peers detest you and will most likely get you fired, in short order. The code you produce will be regarded (rightly) as very brittle and unmaintainable.
Take this example of why you might want to prevent other programmers, or even yourself, from using a variable directly.
You, or another programmer, might just do "speed = -20" (perhaps because a calculation was wrong or another function isn't acting as expecting). Then when you try to use your speed, you get weird results and spend time and energy tracking down the problem. This is a better solution:
You will know right away if your interface is used as you don't intend.
Your question indicates that you might be a little confused about why public and private methods are even useful, so let's take a step back.
You don't declare "everything" private. You declare things private when you do not want other classes using them -- they are totally for internal use. You declare things public when use of your class requires calling that method or using that variable. Indeed, a class with no public methods wouldn't be that useful! (this statement is a pure lie but it works for what we're talking about.)
By making the things you intend to be used from outside the class public and everything else private, you are creating an interface for people using your classes -- either you or others. The heavy lifting is hidden from every other class.
In one sentence: "Program to an interface, not an implementation." When you write a class, the first thought should be "How do I intend other classes to use my class?", not "How should I get the functionality I want?" In my opinion, that distinction is the difference between the mindsets you should have when doing imperative programming and object oriented programming.
well it is really easy to understand the need for private modifiers in java which is purely an object oriented language
consider you have a very nice sports car A!
Probably when you get the new version of this car, it will have the same increaseSpeed() with much more fields that are manipulated!
The car manufacturer wants you to know that you can
but he doesnt really want you to know the inside parts!
I would say that privates are private in Java because:

<< < (4/4)
Yeah, most of us have seen pics of that too. It was a beautiful design, but not a real practical car for the general population to own. I had a 1963 Corvair with the rear engine, and I really loved that little car. It was a Monza, so had the dual carburetors and was a pretty fast little guy.
ol dirty doug:
i choose the 4.6!!!!!!!!! only because of the technology behind it, and the level of performance stock (well except for my shitty 96-98 mustang hahaha) but as far as over support and "bang for the buck horsepower" and ease of building its gotta be the 5.0!

Rated 4.3 out of 5 by 7 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5 by 3dogmarin All 3 dogs love it It's hard to find a food that all 3 of my dogs love and don't get tired of by the 3rd day. This is the new winner...best liked food ever, so far. My dog with a sensitive stomach had firm stool from the first day (it usually takes him several days for his system to adjust). The only downside: I like to mix some dry food in with the canned food and this is very, very dense. Even heated it's hard to mix.Still, 5 stars for all the important things. November 4, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5 by 1Katie EVERY BIT AS HEALTHY AS THE EXPENSIVE BRAND My Maltese had pancreatitis a little over a year ago and I had to stop giving her "people food" treats. I was given Royal Canine by my Vet and as that was so expensive, I asked if there was another brand less expensive. That's when he told me about Hi-Tor. My little love actually likes the consistency of Hi-Tor over Royal Canine and it is more than half the cost and just as healthy. August 20, 2014
Rated 4 out of 5 by Sweetmagnolia53 This product works as well as some of the prescription dog food We had been using Hills but this works just as well. The best part is Chewy is so fast on their shipping there is no need to get in your car and go shop. I ordered this product one evening around 7pm and had it the next day. That is service!

Rated 5 out of 5 by dogpack Hi-TOR Eno Diet Keep My dogs Healthy I have fed my 4 labs and golden retrievers HI-TOR eno diet since they were puppies. They did not have any gastrointestinal problems. I cut a few chunks and add it to their dry food. Unused portions are stored in the refrigerator. October 7, 2014

According to David Williams of ADV Gunsmith Cats: Bulletproof and Sorcerer Hunters Vol. #1 are having their release dates pushed back to a March 27th.

In April last year, the Heaths began the People's Bread -
making, selling and delivering organic stone-ground sourdough
loaves throughout Hawea and Wanaka. It quickly grew into a
full-time job, around raising their four young children and
run from their home-based mobile kitchen.
Their car ferried the food and family around the district
until they decided an electric form of delivery would be more
''We looked at scooters but the technology didn't seem quite
up with the play. So we discovered electric bikes,'' Mrs
Heath said.
''We wanted to reduce how much we used our vehicles and we
thought, given the distances that we're travelling, it would
easily be doable on a bike,'' her husband added.
''And you can get exercise at the same time.''
The couple bought their US-made bike at the start of last
month from a Wellington-based distributor and it immediately
began to ''revolutionise the way we do things''.
Their five-day-a-week door-to-door deliveries became far more
streamlined on the two-wheeler, which uses optional pedal
power to boost its motor.
Considered the ''station wagon'' of electric bikes, the
Heaths' chosen model was ideal for big families, they said.
It carries up to 200kg and travels at an average speed of
35kmh during delivery runs, with its panniers laden with
freshly baked bread and a couple of Heath children on the
After the initial outlay of about $5000, the only running
costs are for charging the bike - about 50c a day - and
minimal maintenance.
The couple said electric bikes were common in Europe and they
expected them to become increasingly so in New Zealand, as it
was a ''lovely'' way to travel.
''It's amazing what you experience by biking for delivery;
just an awareness of the environment and your surroundings,''
Mrs Heath said.
''And it's quite exciting and fun to go out on the bike, as
opposed to getting in the car ... the novelty hasn't worn off
yet,'' she added.
The unconventional ride has already completed more than 700km
in the first few weeks of use and attracted plenty of
attention on its travels, particularly from amused cyclists
on non-motorised bikes whom the Heaths effortlessly overtake
on the open road.
Asked if the bike would remain the permanent People's Bread
carrier, the Heaths confirmed it was here to stay, before
adding: ''ask us in winter''.
And if demand for the loaves continues to grow?
''We'll get a fleet,'' Mrs Heath said.

Asset Acceptance won't accept payment![ Edited ]
01-21-2013 04:02 PM - edited 01-21-2013 04:02 PM
Hello All
I am trying to get pre approved for a mortgage and have one blemish left on my reports which is a BOA Credit Card chargeoff that was sold to Asset Acceptance. I contacted Asset Acceptance through the BBB and AG of Michigan for Debt Validation. The debt came back verified so I accepted that it was mine and called Asset Acceptance to make a settlement payment. Per their customer service, they can no longer accept payment or even speak about my debt due to being past SOL! I just pulled my credit reports and they are still reporting an unpaid collection under a "factoring company account." I am so frustrated since I am here to pay a debt and now your telling me I can't! Wake me up because this has to be a NIGHTMARE. They claim the debt is past SOL and they have to close the ACCT. This is so bad.
Are they going to report as a closed unpaid with 0 balance or what?? The original Creditor already reports as CHARGEOFF SOLD TO ANOTHER LENDOR!
Wow i didnt even get a chance!
Any advice be would greatly appreciated

A man sets out on an ordinary business trip to Valparaiso, Indiana. It turns out to be a mock-heroic journey toward identity and transcendence.
This is Don DeLillo's second play, and it is funny, sharp, and deep-reaching. Its characters tend to have needs and desires shaped by the forces of broadcast technology.
This is the way we talk to each other today. This is the way we tell each other things, in public, before listening millions, that we don't dare to say privately.
Nothing is allowed to be unseen. Nothing remains unsaid. And everything melts repeatedly into something else, as if driven by the finger on the TV remote.
This is also a play that makes obsessive poetry out of the language of routine airline announcements and the flow of endless information.
Valparaiso has been performed by the American Repertory Theatre in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and by the Steppenwolf Theatre Company in Chicago.

Read an Excerpt
From Act One
Michael Majeski
Livia Majeski
Delfina Treadwell
Teddy Hodell
The Interviewers
The Camera Crew
The Chorus
Two actors, one male, one female, play all the Interviewers in Act One.
The three members of the Camera Crew double as Chorus.
Act One
Living room of the Majeski house. A large uncluttered space, bare-walled except for a large TV set in a wall unit upstage. The room is largely achromatic but not stylishly so. It is a representation of a living room, more or less anyone's.
In several scenes a sector of this playing area functions as office space or as interview space in a broadcast studio.
Scene 1
The living room in half-light. Livia sits on an exercise bike, facing downstage. She looks into the middle distance, pedaling steadily.
Lights slowly down.
There is a deep pulse of image and sound. A videotape is projected on the back wall and adjacent furniture. It shows a single image, a high-angle shot of a man in a tightly confined space. There is a plastic bag on his head, fastened about the neck. He is seated, a forearm braced against the wall to either side of him. The plastic is thick and frosted, obscuring the man's features.
The tape is crude and marked by visual static. A digital display is inset in a lower corner of the tape. It records the hour and minute, the fleeting seconds and tenths of seconds.
Livia rides her bike, visible in the flickering light.
After the tape has run for twelve seconds, there is an interval of agitation caused either by an unsteady camera or some larger disturbance.
The sound throughout is intense and electronic, a synthesized roaring wind.
Slowly the man on the tape raises his head toward the camera. The shaking becomes more pronounced and the tape abruptly ends.
The projection lasts twenty seconds. Livia is barely visible, pedaling. Then darkness.

I go to school in Valparaiso and I read the play based solely on that, but the play ended up being more than a mild read for me...I couldn't put it down...Delillo hit the mark on his social commentary of reality TV...I think that is what his point was anyway

John Witherspoon
You probably remember John Witherspoon as Ice Cube's outrageously funny, dog- catching dad in New Line Cinema's smash urban trilogy Friday, Next Friday & Friday After Next, or as "Pops" on the long-running syndicated sitcom The Wayans Brothers...or currently as Lloyd on Adult Swim's Black Jesus.
His scene-stealing roles in Boomerang, Little Nicky, House Party, Vampire in Brooklyn, and I'm Gonna Git You Sucka, made him one of the most memorable funny men in America Not only does Witherspoon's work span over four decades to include blockbuster movies, hit- television shows, commercials, and top- rated music videos, but he is also a top selling stand up act who regularly tours the country. The Detroit-bred comic has proven that he is a Hollywood mainstay and continues to land coveted spots in some of America's favorite movies and television shows.

text: Fourth best: Charleston, S.C. Finding a guy to dance the Charleston with in Charleston should be pretty easy. Single people who've lived in Charleston for less than five years make up 28.6% of the city's 665,000 population, a 99th-percentile showing, and single men under 35 account for 19.3% of Charleston residents -- another 99th-percentile ranking. That said, Charleston places only in the 49th percentile for its walk score and in the 34th percentile for disposable income among single males. Unmarried Charleston men make a median $31,036 annually, yet typically pay $1,435 a month in rent. That gives them a relatively low $1,151 in extra funds per month to spend on dates and the like. The city has 156 young unmarried men for every 100 young unmarried women. That puts Charleston in the 96th percentile nationwide for the ratio of eligible young males to eligible young females.

Depression Health Center
Tempted to Quit Antidepressants?
Give It Time continued...
But a lot of patients give up before the drug has had time to enact changes in the brain's chemistry. Side effects are the most common reason for quitting an antidepressant within the first two weeks.
Fatigue, nausea, insomnia, and sedation are common and most notable when the drug is first started. Stomach upset occurs in about 5% to 10% of patients. Doctors say these side effects, while frustrating, usually go away within a few weeks, and they encourage patients to persevere and continue therapy. Patients who are depressed can be vulnerable to feeling pessimistic or hopeless about antidepressant treatment and may give up too early, Dunlop warns. He says patients need to understand that treating the depression will make them more able to tackle the challenges in their life and thereby improve their overall situation.
"Sometimes, the doctor has not taken the time to explain the rationale for treating the depression and how the medicines are thought to work, so the patient may not fully comprehend the reason for the medications and stop prematurely," Dunlop says.
Reasons for Quitting
Weight gain, like Niziol experienced, is one of the most common reasons people quit taking antidepressants. Paxil and Remeron are among the most likely ones to cause weight gain. If you are worried about weight gain, ask your doctor which antidepressants are least likely to cause you to pack on the pounds.
Some antidepressants may also zap your sex drive. That's a leading reason why patients, particularly young men, quit antidepressant therapy without telling their doctors.
Other common reasons for quitting include cost of treatment and negative beliefs about the treatment itself. For example, family or friends may say that you don't need a pill to relieve mood symptoms. And sometimes, patients stop taking the drug simply because they feel better and don't think they need it anymore, unaware that this means the medicine is doing its job, and without it, the depression could come back.
Is Your Dose Right?
Some patients stop taking antidepressants because they think the drug isn't working. It may be that their dose just needs to be adjusted, Kennedy says.

The week began with the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) maintaining status quo on rates as expected at its mid-quarter monetary policy review. The trade deficit widened to $20.14 billion, a seven-month high and up 13.18 percent over the previous month. Gold seems to be the culprit again and government restrictions don't seem to deter Indians from buying gold.


text: Moody's Last up is financial data firm Moody's ( MCO). As one of the "big three" ratings firms, Moody's controls around 40% of the market for debt ratings, a position that gives the firm ample cross selling opportunities among its user base. But this stock hasn't exactly been well liked over the last few years. Moody's deservedly got a lot of the blame for the financial crisis of 2008, as inflated credit ratings on mortgage-backed securities made investors believe that the bad debt they were buying was much safer than it was. And more recently, Warren Buffett's unceremonious selling of his stake in Moody's has spurred other investors to follow suit. That's helped push MCO's short interest ratio up to 11.9. At the end of the day, MCO is still one of the biggest games in town for debt ratings, and cheap credit costs have re-opened the debt issuance spigot worldwide. With interest rates expected to remain low for an extended period, that should remain the case for the foreseeable future. Credit ratings aren't the firm's only business. The firm also sells research and quantitative databases, products that (like ratings) are capital-light and produce impressive margins. The firm has been shoring up its balance sheet over the last few years, moving from a lot of leverage to a nearly debt-neutral position more recently. That extra wherewithal makes the risks of financial stress much less for the firm, and much more likely to see a short squeeze in the near term.

Re: If Vitali was fighting in the 1970's-1980's
Vitali was never down and he was never behind on points in a fight.
Yes, he lost twice... LTKOby9 to Chris Byrd (torn rotator) and LTKOby6 to Lennox Lewis (cuts). He improved after these fights... but he was very good even in these fights.
Vitali is taller and heavier than any of the fighters we are putting him against and he knew how to use his size advantages. He has a solid chin, he has good stamina, good power, a good jab, and is strong. These are understatements because he gets an A+ in all of these areas. Vitali was able to beat huge men with ease. He was able to beat smaller men with ease.
Ali, Holmes, and Foreman are all top 5 all-time HWs IMO. Frazier is pretty damn good as well. In all honesty, not much seperates Norton from Frazier in terms of ability. They both did well vs. Ali in 3 fights (both beat him once), they both stopped Quarry, both stopped Ron Stander, and they were both stopped early by Foreman.
I think Ali, Holmes, and Foreman win tough fights vs. Vitali. I don't think these other guys beat him. We are talking about Vitali at his best vs. these guys at their best. I don't think Vitali was at his very best vs. Byrd or even Lewis... although he was close to it.
Ruddock wasn't **** compared to Vitali btw!

MOSCOW - Ukraine's unpaid gas debt to Russia has reached $5.3 billion, Gazprom's CEO has said.
Alexey Miller said on Tuesday that the Ukrainian state-run oil and gas company Naftogaz had made no payment in June amid a dispute over prices with Russian energy giant Gazprom.
Miller said: "The deadline of advance payment for June supplies expired yesterday.
"We have not received any money from Ukraine's Naftogaz and Ukraine's total debt has reached $5.296 billion."
"Ukraine needs to pay for 11.535 billion cubic meters of gas, which is equivalent to the gas supplied annually to Poland," he said.
In April, Gazprom increased its gas prices from $286 per 1,000-cubic meters to $485, terminating its previous more favorable agreement with the former pro-Russian government of Ukraine.
Gazprom filed a lawsuit against Ukraine in a Stockholm arbitration court in June over the dispute.
Gazprom has previously said it will do its utmost to prevent natural gas supply shortages affecting European countries via Ukraine.

Considering the disappointing way in which this season ended it's hard to believe it's only been a year since the Flyers faced the Blackhawks in Game Four of the Stanley Cup Finals. Yeah, I could use some Flyers playoff hockey in my life right about now.
End to End: Analyzing Bradyen Schenn's contract
End to End: Analyzing Bradyen Schenn's contract
Each week, we'll ask questions about the Flyers to our resident hockey analysts and see what they have to say.
Going End to End this week are Tom Dougherty, Jordan Hall and Greg Paone, all producers/reporters for CSNPhilly.com.
Is Brayden Schenn's contract a good deal for the Flyers?
It's understandable why some portion of Flyers fans have responded to Schenn's contract extension with caution; the $5.125 million is a bit high for what he's done consistently. But we live in a salary cap world in which the cap is not rising at the rate we would like.
We have to consider that when analyzing contracts. As Sportsnet's Colton Praill eloquently opined about bridge contracts back on July 13, we've seen teams get burnt by bad contracts. Look at the Chicago Blackhawks, who have had to move players to fit under the cap.
Part of surviving the cap world is making smart bets on players, and that requires breaking down what they have done already but more importantly, what you believe they'll do in the future. And Ron Hextall has done a decent job of that in his tenure as GM.
A perfect example of that is Sean Couturier's contract. It was a higher cap hit than his offensive production warranted at the time, but a deal we would look back on as a steal.
Now, Schenn's development is nearly complete. It's a different situation, but the same idea. If Schenn is a 26-goal, 59-point player, his $5.125 million AAV is fair.
If there's another level we haven't seen from the 24-year-old, then this is a totally different conversation in a few years.
In the end, the Flyers are betting on Schenn being the player he was from Jan. 1, 2016, through the end of the season, and living in the cap world, it's a smart play.
The Flyers were going to re-sign Brayden Schenn, through an arbitrator or not.
And when it was all said and done, no matter if the average annual value was slightly lower or higher than the $5.125 million of Schenn's new four-year contract, the Flyers were still going to be handcuffed by the cap.
So the Flyers avoided what can be a messy arbitration process by finding a happy medium with a strategic deal that behooves the Flyers long term, as Ron Hextall explained.
Now they have longer team control over Schenn, who could have signed for fewer years, upped his game and ballooned his payday as an unrestricted free agent.
Like Hextall said, top-six forwards entering their prime "are hard to find."
Yeah, the Flyers probably overpaid just a bit, but that's the NHL market — it's far from perfect.
There's a reason these kinds of things are categorized as negotiations. There's give and take involved. In the case of Brayden Schenn's contract, there was probably a little more give than Ron Hextall and the Flyers would have liked. The numbers reported over the weekend tell us the Flyers didn't necessarily want to go over the $5 million per year threshold with Schenn, even though the 24-year-old forward is coming off a career year of 26 goals and 33 assists.
But just because the Flyers went over their projected budget by going a smidge over $5 million doesn't mean this is a terrible deal for the team. Not by any means. By now, you've probably read or heard Hextall use the term "market deal" when describing this contract. And that's accurate because that's the way the NHL is going these days. Yes, Schenn has had inconsistency issues over his first five seasons in Philadelphia. But young scorers don't grow on trees. You have to pay to keep the ones you have. New Jersey's Kyle Palmieri, the New York Rangers' Chris Kreider and St. Louis' Jaden Schwartz are just a few examples. Schenn is just the latest. There will be more young scorers out there, flaws be damned, who will get paid sooner rather than later.
Sure, Schenn picked a great time last year — a contract year — to have a career season. And that pushed the Flyers to reward him. Now, it's up to him to reward the Flyers' faith.
Phillies to host Grateful Dead Tribute Night in August with sweet tie-dye T-shirt giveaway
Phillies to host Grateful Dead Tribute Night in August with sweet tie-dye T-shirt giveaway
The 2016 Philadelphia Phillies season has felt a bit like they're just going down the road feeling bad and when they're at home, Citizens Bank Park has felt a bit like a brokedown palace, so it's fitting they're hosting a Grateful Dead Tribute Night in August.
Not sure what kind of antics are planned for the night but I'm hopping it includes a skit where the Phanatic dances on top of the dugout with his new best friend Lucifer.
Grateful Dead night at CBP will take place on Tuesday, August 2nd when the Phils host the San Francisco Giants.
"The first 1,500 fans who purchase tickets through this promotion will receive a coupon for an exclusive Phillies Grateful Dead T-shirt giveaway," says the Phillies website. "In addition, $4 from each ticket sold for this event will benefit the Rex Foundation."
The Phillies have struggled heading into the July trade deadline, but hopefully help is on the way in the form of young prospects like Jake Thompson and J.P. Crawford.

Phillies-Marlins 5 things: Phils look to continue mastery of Giancarlo Stanton
Phillies-Marlins 5 things: Phils look to continue mastery of Giancarlo Stanton
Phillies (46-55) at Marlins (53-46)
7:10 p.m. on CSN
Another impressive start by Jeremy Hellickson and some timely late offense led the Phillies to a series-opening win in Miami Monday. Now they go for the quick series win, which would be their first in four tries since the All-Star break.
Let's take a closer look at Tuesday's matchup:
1. One donut shy of a dozen
The Phillies' 4-0 win last night was their 11th shutout victory of the season, the most in baseball. The Mets and Dodgers are tied for second with nine.
The Phils' pitching staff was obviously at its best in April, when it set the MLB record for strikeouts per nine innings in the month at 10.4. The Phillies had five shutouts in April, two in May, two in June and now two in July.
And it's not like the Phils have just taken advantage of bad teams here, shutting out the Braves or Padres repeatedly. They've shut out the Nationals twice, the Mets, Blue Jays, Cardinals, Pirates, Marlins and Diamondbacks. All of those teams except Arizona (which has a good offense) is above .500 and in the playoff hunt.
It's been written here many times that the most important short-term decision the Phillies made this past offseason was to raise the floor of the starting rotation. They've done it, and more importantly they've done it with youth. The Phillies' mediocre, veteran-laden 2015 staff had just seven shutouts all season.
2. Walk this way
Maikel Franco and Cameron Rupp both had productive nights Monday in their returns to the starting lineup. Franco went 1 for 2 with a double and three walks, scoring the Phillies' first and ultimately game-winning run in the eighth. Rupp went 0 for 2 but also walked three times and saw 26 pitches.
How rare is it for two Phillies to walk three times in the same game? It hadn't happened since Chase Utley and Carlos Ruiz did it on April 5, 2010 at Nationals Park in Roy Halladay's Phillies debut.
Franco and Rupp may have been the two most unlikely Phillies to walk three times. Franco is an aggressive swinger, and Rupp walked just three times in the season's first two months. Rupp had just 11 in 248 plate appearances this season before Monday.
The Phillies averted disaster with two of their productive, young hitters after Franco was hit by a pitch on the wrist (again) in Pittsburgh and Rupp was hit on the helmet.
3. Eickhoff's turn
Two of Jerad Eickhoff's last three starts have seen him start strong and fall apart in the middle innings. He allowed six runs (five earned) on nine hits over five innings against the Marlins last week after beginning the game with three scoreless innings.
Right before the All-Star break, Eickhoff was cruising at Coors Field with four shutout innings before the umpire's strike zone shrunk and Eickhoff's control disappeared. He allowed two runs in the fifth and six in the sixth.
In between those two outings was a well-pitched game in which Eickhoff allowed two runs in six innings to the Mets for yet another quality start.
So even though the results lately have been ugly for Eickhoff, even though his ERA has risen from 3.30 to 3.98 in the span of three weeks, he hasn't been all that bad. He just needs to avoid that one big inning.
Eickhoff, who is 6-11 with a 3.98 ERA in 20 starts this season, is 0-2 with a 6.55 ERA against the Marlins this season. He pitched six shutout innings against them in their lone meeting last year.
Marcell Ozuna and Christian Yelich have caused the most problems for him, going a combined 6 for 15 with three doubles and two homers.
4. Time to hit Koehler
The Phillies have had three looks at mediocre Marlins right-hander Tom Koehler (7-8, 4.42) this season and failed to hit him all three times.
On May 7, Koehler allowed one run on two hits over seven innings with eight strikeouts in a game the Phillies eventually won.
On May 18, he allowed two runs to them in seven innings and induced 16 groundballs.
And then last week, matched up against Eickhoff, Koehler again gave up just two hits, this time over eight innings. He allowed two homers but only one of the Phils' three runs was earned.
It's hard to explain why, all the sudden, the Phils have stopped hitting the 6-foot-3 righty. Last season, a worse Phillies team scored 15 runs against him in 21 innings.
The Phillies are familiar with Koehler's repertoire, which includes a fastball in the 93 to 95 mph range, a curveball, slider and changeup. In the first two meetings this season he threw them a ton of fastballs, 115 in all. But last week he threw just 38 fastballs among 110 pitches. He threw 34 curveballs in that game, by far the most he's thrown this season. Don't be surprised to see a similar game plan tonight given how well it worked last week.
Current Phillies have hit just .201 against Koehler with three homers (Ryan Howard, Cody Asche, Freddy Galvis) in 144 at-bats.
5. Marlins notes
• Ichiro has gone 0 for 4 as a pinch-hitter in the Marlins' last four games. He's sitting on 2,996 career hits, meaning he could get his historic 3,000th against the Phillies this week with a big game or two. It would require the Marlins to sit one of Ozuna, Yelich or Giancarlo Stanton, though.
• Stanton this season against the Phillies: 3 for 33 (.091), one extra-base hit (a homer), two RBIs, 14 strikeouts.
Against everyone else, Stanton has hit .257/.350/.524 with 20 home runs and 53 RBIs. If you remove the Phillies from the equation, Stanton's OPS this season would be 52 points higher, .874 instead of .822.
