12 stunning images from Smithsonian's photography contest
12 stunning images from Smithsonian's photography contest
Smithsonian.com has announced 60 finalists for its 11th annual photo contest. More than 50,000 photographs were submitted by photographers from 132 different countries. Ten images were selected from each of six categories: The Natural World, Travel, People, Americana, Altered Images and Mobile.
Check out a selection of the finalists in our gallery above. Then head over to Smithsonian.com to vote for the Reader's Choice winner. Grand Prize and category winners will be announced May 15, 2014.

All great except the dog
The photograph starts in the eye and tells the brain to trip the shutter. The brain, then lets the hand get a finger to release the shutter.
There are those that can per-visualize things in front of them. And there are those that the brain didn't talk to. Sorry.
Liked everything one of them.
Maybe you should pervisualize up some English before taking snide shots at other people's skill levels.
Several of these photos just don't appear real.
Most of them are amazing though.
I assure you, #6 is very real. :)
When did the Smithsonian competition start promoting fake art even not overly PS edited. It is surreal and, yes, it is fake. Maybe I am too old school.
Hey look, it's that guy. The guy with terrible opinions who always needs to ramble about 'fake art' and 'teh photoshops'.
Let's all laugh at him.
I'm glad they're not overly PS'ed.
I'm suspicious of the frog one though.
Nice photos. The brown bear is a great image of a powerful predator. But I use the following much more peaceful looking bear cub as my screensaver. I smile each time I close down my files and see it. http://travel.nationalgeographic.com/travel/traveler-magazine/photo-contest/2014/entries/gallery/spontaneous-moments-week-2/
Interesting that two of the photos were taken by phones!
That "Tower" photo was too fake for me...maybe I'm just...
It's supposed to be that way, it's in the Altered Image category
Unfortunate that you can't seem to vote on the best image in each category. My choices: Natural #5, Travel #8, People #1, Americana #7, Altered #3 (with #4 virtually in a tie), Mobile #3. My favorite? People #1. But so many great images!
The cameras were almost all Canon or Nikon; others might want to get in the mix next year. In Mobile, you'd think the only cameraphones available were iPhones, but their images certainly prove the old adage that the best camera is the one you have with you.
Yeah, there seems to be some confusion, a lot of people don't realize that Readers' Choice is one image from all of the finalists, not one from each category.
And thank you for your compliments.
If you open the Smithsonian webpage and click on the thumbnails of the contest finalists at the top of the homepage you can see see many more images at a large size, all beautiful. It must have been a real challenge to winnow down the entries from 50,000 given the quality here.
#10 Cinque Terre, Italy is a big time photoshop, the only one here heavily manipulated and altered. So heavily editing is ok for the Smithsonian?
Those were only eligible for the "Altered" category.
Carefully read the description of that image.
The category is ALTERED IMAGES. Duh.
Thank you.
@ William
Its the gear you wear! What else?
Great images! Love #6. The dust spots on the sensor seem particularly appropriate in that one! :)
I didn't realize how much dust had actually gotten behind the filter, until we were off the playa and headed home.
Right ! And next time, the photographer will have to take some pictures of a drilling derrick field in order to hide the oil stains made by its shutter on the sensor of his brand new camera.
Churchill talked about blood, sweat and tears... at least there is some improvements in the making.
As the photographer of the Bijou image, I'm happy to hear any critiques or answer any questions you may have.
The dust spots are an unfortunate fact of Burning Man, particularly later in the week, as traffic has broken up the harder packed areas. The winds were gusting a bit on that day, so dust clouds were kicking up pretty frequently, and while you can clean your lens, if it doesn't dry quickly enough, it'll basically turn to cement on the filter or front element.
No offense intended Dallas, I think you have understood everybody here was kidding. Your photograph is outstanding and make me feel younger, when I first watched the movie "Bagdad Café". Anyway, congratulations for your wonderful skill and for the Smithsonian's award.
P.S: too bad your web site is out of order. Is there another one working ?
Thanks for catching the broken link, fixed that.
It was a fine time getting that shot, there's a nice little series of various people coming and going at the Bijou.
Thanks for coming here and commenting about your image NLD! And I was serious when I said the dust spots were appropriate. :) They don't detract from the image IMO but are easily removable if they annoy you in the future. Again, great shot! I can't imagine how difficult it is to keep a camera clean at Burning Man!!
It was definitely a bit of a challenge, luckily it was a pretty light year up until Thursday. It had rained the week before, so things were packed pretty tight.
Absolutely worth it though, I'd go back in a heartbeat.
Nice. Reminds me of my Wildlife Calendar for 2014
number 8 is fantastic
I m not saying my photos are better,but in my eyes this is not stunning.
What on Earth is going on in #10? Looks positively hallucinogenic. Not a real place surely?
Huh? Not sure what you mean by 'none of them are reality'....No. 1 is definitely a reality....
I honestly wasn't going for art with my shot of the Bijou, it just kind of happened.
But I'm not complaining.
SirSeth, I am not sure if your comment is intended as irony. In any case, "art" is, in many cases, referencial to issues of representation, to lesser or greater degrees a dialogue involving reality and its relationship to the artificial. And the two conditions often overlap within the art process.
Looks like Dina Bova (#9) was inspired by the work of Eric de Ville :-)
I'm not sure the word "stunning" fits for these images in 2014. Maybe 10 years ago, but not today. With the rapid improvements in technology and more people with camera's, stunning shots are harder to come by than they once were. Kuddos to each of the photographers and their shots, its still an honor to be chosen.
Doesn't matter what the technology is, photographs like this don't just happen.....
If they would have been stunning 10 years ago then they still are...an image is an image.
The fisherman image reminds me of this software!
Many great images. And its not about the camera, its about the talent of the photographer.
But since this is a gear forum:
Among 60 finalists, used cameras: 1 mirrorless (Fuji XPro-1), 1 SLT (Sony A77), 3 P&S (2 superzoms), of course only phones in the phone class (10). The rest DSLRs. Seems like the "dinosaurs" are alive and well.
Are the "dinosaurs" the (still good skilled) eldery photographers still attached to their mirrors and pentaprism since the prehistoric film times? :-)
And as you say it's about the talent of the photographer, so if you manage to overcome the resistance of these dinosaurs to grab and use a mirrorless, there is no reason why they couldn't have got the same results.
Canon 6, Nikon 3, iPhone 2. These are among 60 of course.
Excellent images. Some are really stunning.
I'm with Maria2008 on this issue. While every pictures here are nice and neat - and I like almost each of them except the dog picture which is a snapshot just good enough for a P&S pamphlet - there is really too much HDR around. Looking at photographs nowadays feels more and more like a 70's trip (cf: http://youtu.be/iwuTEV2G1HU ). Photographs is fundamentaly a play with light and shadows, but were do shadows go when over-processing seems to be paramount in visual arts ?
@WilliamJ. Not disagreeing (to much :) ), but I still wonder:
Too much HDR compared to what? How a human perceives a situation? Or how a 5+ year old digital sensors tries to capture it? Or how a film behaved some 15 years ago?
Before we say 'HDR' is all wrong , we should have some idea of what is right. And maybe a digital sensor is not the right norm.
To Eleson: this is a very interesting question, which is next to "what's art ?". For sure there is no "perfect photography" and "darker or lighter shadows and mi-tones" is as it is always in art a question of tastes.
Yet, the point Maria2008 (I assume) and me wanted to raise was the abuse of HDR. Each technique is like a spice, say like Tabasco. What's that sort of cooking if one pours a heavy dose of Tabasco in each meal prepared ? Some people will say "hey, dude, are you living on the moon ?! That's called Mexican-style cuisine !!!" and I say "why not" (as I do love hot cuisine) but NOT AT EVERY MEAL. By the way, a lot of nowadays photographs are so over-processed that they tend to look like these old surrealist paintings of dolphins airbrushed swimming under a moonlight that flooded the international scene 40 years ago.
Often, less is more... if one wants to avoid to reach bad taste.
It might help if y'all could share which ones you feel are overly processed.
I don't know if your question is for Maria2008 or for me, but it's ok for me to answer it.
#3 to #5 for instance. Look at the mi-tones and the shadows ! Look at the cowboy riding his horse on the picture #5 which is so clear - while being against the light ! - that the picture looks like a lead pencil drawing. As for the #3 it is over-colored and with the HDR effect diluting the shadows it makes the picture look like a hyperrealist illustration. Don't you feel there is too much HDR in nowadays photography ?
To TheDman: are you kidding me ? Most pictures here are over-saturated (illustration standard) and about half are a little bit too much HDRed, I just pointed out some photographs that were "really" a little bit too much (and even did not dealt with the dog picture which is a typical HDRed picture and the fully artistic #10). As for the #4... Oh, my ! It's obvious you don't have a clue about the subject, sorry. Have you ever tried to produce such a picture from the inside of a very dark room pointing your lens toward a very bright point ? I would not ask you to give us your opinion for the Guide Michelin if you taste food as you see things.
Where is the settlement that inspired the photo No.10 located and called?
It look unreal. :-)
"It look unreal"
maybe because it is in the "altered" category?
One of the Cinque Terre villages. Manarola, I think. ed: I see that's mentioned below, now.
Wow, wonderful imagery. Awesome, is not a word we use often in the UK but it applies here :-)
Stunning indeed and these are my favs: #3, 8, 9, 11, 12, and the altered #10..
Manarola, Cinque Terre, Italy https://www.flickr.com/photos/httpwwwflickrcomphotosbobrad/5291378095/in/set-72157605376700624
Reworked from a typical view of Manarola, the oldest and second smallest of the Cinque Terre towns, a rugged portion of coast on the Italian Riviera, in the coastal region of Liguria (NW Italy), province of La Spezia, west of the city of La Spezia and south of the province (and city) of Genova.
Here is what it really looks like:
Interesting, it seems photography is now a shared combination of the eye of the photographer and the creative effects of a computer based editor.

Jurgen Klopp has taken his squad to the Spanish island for some warm weather training while their seasoned internationals slog away with their respective national teams.
Lucas and Moreno have been contending with injury problems in recent weeks, while Enrique hasn't featured for the Merseyside outfit since the FA Cup in January.
But while the former Newcastle United defender can't find a way into Klopp's first-team, Enrique is a regular on Moreno's Snapchat stories.
The Spain international snapped a series of photos with Enrique and Lucas plus their better halves as the Liverpool players soaked up the sun courtesy of their own private boat.

I will never forget when I started my catering company and offered sweet and spicy peanuts as one of the gift items. I had to toss peanuts for days, but they were delicious! Although I don't suggest that you mix quite as many as I did in the early years of my career, I do suggest you toss a few of these delights for the occasion.
- Yield
- Makes 10 servings
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 6 cups whole, blanched almonds
- 1/3 cup honey
- 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons cumin
- 2 teaspoons cayenne
- 2 tablespoons salt
- 4 tablespoons sesame seeds
- 1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees.

Why do you think Lebronze is always staying in the weak east? He's afraid of having to go up against Gawdbe, Duncan and Durant in the playoffs.

Manpage of GETLINE
GETLINESection: Linux Programmer's Manual (3)
Updated: 2016-03-15
NAMEgetline, getdelim - delimited string input
#include <stdio.h>ssize_t getline(char **lineptr, size_t *n, FILE *stream);ssize_t getdelim(char **lineptr, size_t *n, int delim, FILE *stream);
Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):
getline(), getdelim():
- Since glibc 2.10:
- Before glibc 2.10:
DESCRIPTIONgetline() reads an entire line from stream, storing the address of the buffer containing the text into *lineptr. The buffer is null-terminated and includes the newline character, if one was found.
If *lineptris set to NULL and *nis set 0 before the call, then getline() will allocate a buffer for storing the line. This buffer should be freed by the user program even if getline() failed.
Alternatively, before calling getline(), *lineptrcan contain a pointer to a malloc(3)-allocated buffer *nbytes in size. If the buffer is not large enough to hold the line, getline() resizes it with realloc(3), updating *lineptrand *nas necessary.
In either case, on a successful call, *lineptrand *nwill be updated to reflect the buffer address and allocated size respectively.
getdelim() works like getline(), except that a line delimiter other than newline can be specified as the delimiterargument. As with getline(), a delimiter character is not added if one was not present in the input before end of file was reached.
RETURN VALUEOn success, getline() and getdelim() return the number of characters read, including the delimiter character, but not including the terminating null byte (aq\0aq). This value can be used to handle embedded null bytes in the line read.
Both functions return -1 on failure to read a line (including end-of-file condition). In the event of an error, errnois set to indicate the cause.
- Bad arguments (nor lineptris NULL, or streamis not valid).
ATTRIBUTESFor an explanation of the terms used in this section, see attributes(7).
|getline(), getdelim()
|Thread safety
CONFORMING TOBoth getline() and getdelim() were originally GNU extensions. They were standardized in POSIX.1-2008.
#define _GNU_SOURCE #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> int main(void) { FILE *stream; char *line = NULL; size_t len = 0; ssize_t read; stream = fopen("/etc/motd", "r"); if (stream == NULL) exit(EXIT_FAILURE); while ((read = getline(&line, &len, stream)) != -1) { printf("Retrieved line of length %zu :\n", read); printf("%s", line); } free(line); fclose(stream); exit(EXIT_SUCCESS); }

Cambridge Companion to American Travel Writing by Alfred Bendixen
Book DescriptionTravel writing has always been intimately linked with the construction of American identity. Occupying the space between fact and fiction, it exposes cultural fault lines and reveals the changing desires and anxieties of both the traveller and the reading public. These specially-commissioned essays trace the journeys taken by writers from the pre-revolutionary period right up to the present. They examine a wide range of responses to the problems posed by landscapes found both at home and abroad, from the Mississippi and the Southwest to Europe and the Holy Land. Throughout, the contributors focus on the role played by travel writing in the definition and formulation of national identity, and consider the experiences of minority writers as well as canonical authors. This Companion forms an invaluable guide for students approaching this new, important and exciting subject for the first time.

Don't want to lose my unlimited data (VZW), just transferred upgrade to another line..
I have a Samsung Galaxy Nexus with unlimited data. I transferred my update to another line on the account. I used that upgrade to purchase a GS5. When that comes, can I just pop the SIM card from my line with unlimited data (galaxy nexus) into a GS5 and use that, and continue to have unlimited data?

Scientist-astronaut Harrison H. Schmitt is photographed working beside a huge boulder at Station 6 (base of North Massif) during the third Apollo 17 extravehicular activity (EVA) at the Taurus-Littrow landing site. Credit: NASA
Apollo astronaut and geologist Harrison "Jack" Schmitt doesn't buy the prevailing theory that the moon formed from pieces of Earth that were shot into space after a giant impact.
Instead, Schmitt suspects Earth's gravity captured a smaller body that had built itself up in a nearby orbit.
NEWS: Controversial Moon Origin Theory Rewrites History
Additional evidence may be found inside a deep crater on the moon's south pole, one of several areas Schmitt, now a professor at the University of Wisconsin, advocates exploring, not only for science, but to prepare for human missions to Mars.
As a follow-on program to the International Space Station, the moon fell out of favor as a destination for the U.S. human space program due to high costs. Instead, the Obama administration wants NASA to plan for a manned mission to an asteroid by 2025, an interim milestone toward an eventual human expedition to Mars.
Schmitt, a member of the last Apollo crew that blasted off 40 years ago on Dec. 7, 1972, believes that's a mistake.
BIG PIC: Behold! A 'Pounded Moon' Gravity Map
"I think an asteroid is a diversion," Schmitt told Discovery News. "If the ultimate goal is to get to Mars, you have a satellite only three days away that has a great deal
of science as well as resources."
"The science of the moon has just been scratched," Schmitt added. "We've
hardly explored the moon."
WATCH VIDEO: Enjoy our top 5 lunar moments; astronauts singing, dancing and falling over… on the moon!
For example, new studies of the rock and soil samples retrieved during the six Apollo expeditions to the moon have raised questions about how Earth's companion formed.
The prevailing theory has been that a Mars-sized object bashed into Earth during the solar system's early days, causing debris to shoot into space. The material eventually collected into what became the moon.
NEWS: Obama Win Keeps NASA On Asteroid Odyssey
Computer models laying out the impact scenario, however, can't account for traces of water and other lightweight elements found inside volcanic glass beads in the lunar samples. The extreme heat of the collision likely would have vaporized these volatiles.
More clues to the moon's formation, as well as Earth's early history, may lie inside a massive impact crater on the moon's south pole. The so-called Aitken basin juts more than 8 miles into the lunar crust, perhaps even down to the mantle.
"Aitken may have penetrated deep enough into the moon to give us information that ultimately would feed into answering this question," Schmitt said.
In addition to science, the moon presents a relatively nearby place to test equipment and develop technologies needed to go to Mars, a long-term objective of the U.S. space program. Moon missions also would enable a new generation of workers to learn to operate in deep space.
"The people who know how to work in deep space are my age now, if not older," said Schmitt, 77. "We need young people to get the same kind of experience."
A National Research Council report released this week shares Schmitt's concerns.
"We see little evidence that the current stated goal for NASA's human spaceflight
program — namely, to visit an asteroid by 2025 — has been widely accepted as a
compelling destination by NASA's own workforce, by the nation as a whole, or by
the international community," the report said.
Schmitt presented research about ongoing studies of the 40-year old Apollo moon samples at the American Geophysical Union conference in San Francisco this week.

I'm thinking of using my full name but wonder if people will misspell it or not remember it correctly.
I might abbreviate it or something. I'm just wondering out loud here I guess.

Nonrevealing Equilibria and Consumption-Based Asset Pricing Models

Citation Information: Topics in Theoretical Economics. Volume 6, Issue 1, Pages 1–17, ISSN (Online) 1534-598X, DOI: https://doi.org/10.2202/1534-598X.1335, December 2006

In the rational expectations equilibrium of this paper, agents have private information and differing information partitions and therefore assign differing conditional distributions to asset payoffs and other economic variables relevant to their investment choices. Standard asset pricing models typically do not recognize the impact of these differing information partitions, and empirical tests based on these models thus measure asset riskiness in a way that may not be relevant to any of the agents' decisions. I show how this can lead to distorted estimates of investment risk and how it can make the equity premium appear difficult to explain.

Department of State news
Rick Stengel, former managing editor of Time magazine, was sworn-in as Under Secretary of State for Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs yesterday. Stengel had been nominated for the post by President Obama last fall and was confirmed by the Senate in mid-February.
The Fulbright Program is "a fundamental piece of America's higher education infrastructure," writes Jarrod Hayes in the Washington Post, providing "a critical opportunity for our collective braintrust to build the intellectual capital upon which our society relies":
"The Fulbright scholars program is…central to everything colleges and universities do for our society. It supports faculty from all over the U.S.—red states, blue states, and states in between—to travel abroad in an effort to build connections with other societies and bring those connections and experiences home to their students and communities. It also brings the world into the classrooms of our children by funding the research and teaching of scholars from other societies visiting American colleges and universities."
"In very many ways, the Fulbright program embodies the United States: an ambitious, diverse, globally connected program aimed at moving forward and at the forefront of taking on the difficult challenges that our societies and the world faces. And so preserving the Fulbright program is in a sense preserving who we are as Americans in the 21st century."
A proposed $30 million cut to the Fulbright Program would "rob the United States of one of its greatest, most lasting, and cheapest diplomacy bargains," writes Rebecca Schuman in a recent column for Slate:
"Sometimes the soft power of cultural and educational exchange is more effective than official diplomacy, because it involves…a demonstrated interest in the host culture, full cultural immersion, and actual personal connection with locals. It's for this reason that now is the absolute wrong time to cut the Fulbright program."
"As tensions escalate with countries that were once touchy allies, what we need are more Fulbright grantees in the world, not fewer."
While the President's proposed FY15 budget, released earlier this month, requests a 1.6 per cent increase (to $577.9 million) for all Department of State international exchange programs, it also includes a concerning 13 per cent cut for the Fulbright program, Inside Higher Ed reports.
Testifying on the Obama Administration's FY15 budget request before Congress this week, Secretary of State John Kerry underlined the immense return on investment the American people are getting for their comparatively small investment in U.S. foreign policy, and specifically mentioned the positive impact of international exchanges.
Said Kerry in his testimony:
The U.S. Department of State released yesterday a Fact Sheet outlining the need for increased cooperation with Ukraine, including enhanced people-to-people exchanges. The report followed a meeting between new Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk and President Obama.
The fact sheet outlines a number of steps the U.S. will undertake to assist Ukraine including the $1 billion loan guarantee the government is working with Congress to provide.
The optional practical training program (OPT), which allows international graduates in the United States on student visas to gain work experience related to their fields of study, lacks sufficient risk assessment and governmental oversight, according to a recent Government Accountability Office (GAO) report.
Department of State international exchange programs are funded at $577.9 million in the President's FY 2015 budget request, released today by the Obama administration. This request for exchanges marks an increase of $9.2 million, or 1.6 per cent, over the current FY14 funding level of $568.6 million.
On the morning of February 18--his first as Under Secretary of State for Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs, Richard Stengel circulated the below message to the public diplomacy community:
A Message to the Public Diplomacy Community
From Richard Stengel, Under Secretary for Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs
With a 90-8 vote, the Senate yesterday confirmed Richard Stengel as new Under Secretary of State for Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs, Politico reports.

Chicken takes time; beans take time. Garlic is good with beans; garlic is good with chicken. It was this kind of thinking that led me to cook the two at the same time and then use the pan juices from the chicken to make a garlicky sauce for the beans.
Despite the long overall cooking time, it only takes 15 minutes or so to get the whole thing going. Perfect for weekend cooking. If you are starting with dried beans, give them a 30-minute head start before throwing the chicken into the oven.
For a roasting pan, use one that is only slightly larger than the bird. With a big pan, the juices will dry up. If you have a rack for the pan, great, but if not, it's okay to put the bird right in the pan. I sometimes use a 10-inch skillet and it works fine.
You need...
1-1/2 hours
Roasting pan with a rack
3-quart pot with a lid
375-degree F oven
The beans:
1/2 pound dried navy beans (1 heaping cup), soaked for several hours
4 cups water
1/2 teaspoon salt
The roasted chicken:
1 whole chicken
1 lemon
2 tablespoons olive oil
About 1/2 teaspoon salt
Generous grindings of pepper
2 teaspoons dried oregano
8 big cloves garlic, unpeeled
1. Turn your oven on to 375-degrees F. Put the beans, water, and salt on to simmer. Cover the bean pot. Check after a few minutes, the beans should barely simmer.
2. Pull the neck and sack of organs out of the chicken. Drop the neck in the bean pot. (If you use the organs, put them away for another day, otherwise throw them out.) Rinse the chicken inside and out. Pull off any visible fat and put the chicken in your roasting pan.
3. Make a lemon dressing by squeezing the lemon into a small bowl and mixing in the oil, salt, pepper, and oregano. Put the lemon rinds into the chicken cavity.
4. Pour that lemon dressing over the chicken. Scatter the garlic in the pan and put in the oven. After about 45 minutes, spoon the pan juices over the bird.
5. When the chicken is done, tip it to let the chicken juices from inside drain into the pan, then set it aside on a cutting board while you make the sauce for the beans.
6. Put the garlic on the cutting board, and tip the pan so you can skim most of the fat off. Add a few spoonfuls of water from the beans to the roasting pan so you have about 1/2 cup of pan juices. Stir the juices around, scraping up the stuck bits in the pan.
7. Cut the base off each clove of garlic and the cloves will slip right out of their skins. Mash the garlic with a fork on the cutting board until you have a paste, then stir the paste into the pan juices to taste— you may not use all the garlic paste. Salt and pepper the sauce to taste.
8. Drain the navy beans and pour the garlicky pan juices over them. Carve up the chicken and serve.

>> al: right after the game the wendy's postgame report. a look at the league news as well and look ahead to next week's game between baltimore and pittsburgh. it is second and 23 after the holding call. four-man rush. campbell checks it off underneath. short gain. caught by kyle adams. so it's going to be third and 16 now. bears have one time-out. obviously, in a situation where they go for it on fourth down. >> cris: you have to take your shot eventually. >> al: they go to marshall over the middle. marshall trying to spring free around the outside. he'll go down at the 40. so it comes down to this for chicago. it's going to be fourth down and
11:31 pm
eight. campbell without the huddle. he has marshall going to the left side. he's got hester to the right side. he's got bennett in the slot to the right. precious seconds ticking off. down to a minute. and the pass intended for forte is incomplete. surrounded by four white shirts. so the bears throw their hands up and say "where is the call?" there is none. with a minute to go, wade phillips starts to get some high five's because the texans are going to go to 8-1. >> cris: connor barwin is going to pick this up coming all the way across the field here. a little contact there. but it was initiated as much by forte as fs barw it was by barw. no call. not a great night for the bears. for wade phillips, brilliant.
11:32 pm
absolutely, brilliant. all we want to say about the bears defense, it was wade phillips defense tonight who has got it done. >> al: he has just done a magnificent job coming over. gary kubiak brought him in in the 2011 season after the texans had huge problems defensively. he has revamped it. remember, they got rid of guys like mario williams and demeco ryans and he loses cushing. he comes into chicago and limits the bears to a pair of field goals. they go home to meet jacksonville next week. and if the season ended today, as the saying goes, the road to the super bowl on the afc side would go through houston. >> cris: big questions for the chicago bears next week, will jay cutler be around? the backup quarterback thing for the bears is just not working out. caleb hanie and now jason campbell n getting production
11:33 pm
if jay cutler is not in there. >> al: only thing that works for their benefit is extra day since they have the monday night game next week in san francisco. so this one is over. not a work of art, but it didn't figure to be under these conditions with the rain and the wind and all of the rest. the texans go home with a win. 13-6. the wendy's postgame report is next. . ♪

bear danieal manning who forced a fumble and had a pick tonight. arian foster, 29 carries for 102 yards and he caught a pass for the game's lone touchdown. 13-6 texans. fosten ar and manning with mich. >> michele: arian, we were looking at the conditions but what was it like playing in these conditions? >> this field is pretty bad but everybody was in it so you had to do what you had to do. we fought really hard, man, so proud of my guys. >> michele: coach kubiak told me at halftime these conditions hindered the passing game so they need to do rely on you. how were you able to carry the load when it was necessary? >> well, it's just sometimes, you know, in these cold weather games, you know, running the ball is necessary and my guys up front, my hogs, they always come through and we go as they go. so i'm proud of them and feels good to be 8-1, really does. >> michele: i was going to say 8-1 and you win on the road in these kind of conditions. you guys predominantly an indoor
11:37 pm
team. what does this win mean to the texans? >> it means we're 8-1. that's it. next week we have to get ready for our next opponent and the mentality this team has. it only accounts for is a win. >> michele: arian, congratulations. >> thank you very much. >> michele: danieal manning, you spent the first five years of your career here in chicago. this is your first time back since leaving two years ago. you have a forced fumble and interception in the first quarter. how did things play out you expected them to and hoped them to? >> i say god is good. for me to come out here and show my talent and having fun with these guys. we played hard, man, and knew what we were doing. executing. i told the guys a long ground it out game and continue to stay with those guys we will within this game. >> michele: you played for some very good bears defenses and coming into many game there was so much talk about chicago's defense. how good is the texans defense?
11:38 pm
>> i think we are really good. i mean, sky is the limit with these guys. we continue to stay within what our team is doing, man, we can go all the way. nobody can stop us. >> michele: congratulations. >> thank you. >> michele: bob? >> the texans win tonight caps a day and night in which all of the division winners in the afc won. houston, new england and denver and baltimore. none of the division winners in the nfc won. chicago, giants and atlanta all lost and san francisco could manage only a tie at home against the rams. now we welcome in tony dungy. your reaction to tonight's game, tony. >> well, bob, you talked about being a division leader and i think houston made a stamp tonight and let people know they are the best team in the afc. they went on the road in bad conditions. we think of them as an indoor team. but they played smart tonight. they played tough. they played physical. they won chicago's type of game. their offense didn't throw the ball a lot as we mentioned and turned it over to their defense
11:39 pm
and the defense made plays. you heard danieal manning, he came and made a statement early, turned the game around with that physical hit and coordinator wade phillips i thought did a great job on brandon marshall roving he w realizing he was a threat an houston made the statement they are the best team in the afc tonight. >> they have a one game lead over the ravens and have a victory against baltimore so they own that tiebreaker. who do you think, assuming that houston gets one of the byes and the ravens right now fountain season were to end would get the other. who do you see getting that other bye in the afc? >> well, you really have to look at denver right now. they are playing better as the year goes on. we know peyton manning and that offense and they are going to put points on the board but i think what really has to have the broncos excited is the way their special teams and their defense is playing. today, a lot of sacks, turnovers. they got a defensive score. they have got von miller putting pressure on the passer and they
11:40 pm
are playing complete football. i like the way the schedule sets up for denver too coming down the stretch. >> yeah, their schedule is not too tough the rest of the way. thanks, tony. we turn to mike florio of pro football talk. take us through the significant injuries today, mike. >> bob, quarterback concussions were the injury of the day. michael vick in philadelphia left the first half of that loss to the cowboys with a concussion. nick foles took over. and vick won't be able to return until he is cleared by an independent neurologist to practice and then to play. same thing in san francisco. alex smith left early with a concussion. colin kaepernick took over for him there. tampa bay scary moment. linebacker quincy black immobilized after head and neck injury and relieved from a hospital after the game. coach greg schiano said he will be fine. the team isn't sure when he will be able to play and further testing on monday. for the denver bronco defense looking very good but things not

It is so quiet
So quiet and still
A pin drop can be
As loud as thunder
Your breath is silent
And still, so cold and still
Your voice is no more
Your heart has slowly stopped
I am missing you
So soon to leave
So soon to go
When will this hellish nightmare be over?
I must find a way out
And the way is never clear
Always something in my way
Blocking the view of the future
And what it might hold
It's the end for us
For our dear friend is gone

text: Hi, I have three PCs for my nodes and have done the set up for GFS file system. I created the pool (pool0) and mounted the GFS file systems on each node by following commands #gfs_mkfs -p lock_gulm -t alpha:gfs1 -j /dev/pool/pool0 #mount -t gfs /dev/pool/pool0 /gfs1 How to test them to see if they are running well? How to use GFS file system? Could you give me some example? Thanks! -- Shih-Che Huang
