Servos have small electric motors in them that provide power. The motor has a rotor with two attached to it, one on either side. There are two magnets outside of the motor, also on either side. When current flows through both coils, a magnetic field which turns the rotor so that they face the magnets. When the coils pass their magnets, they get another pulse of electricity, pushing them towards the other magnet. The rotor gets two strong pushes every rotation, which keep it turning. The motor is attached by gears to the control wheel.
Control Wheel
The control wheel is where the servo motor attaches to whatever control mechanism it is powering. It usually can turn 90 degrees in either direction from the starting position for a total of 180 degrees of movement. The control wheel uses a potentiometer to tell exactly how far it has turned and when to stop. The potentiometer is a variable resistor, a device which creates electricity. As the motor turns, the potentiometer creates more or less resistance. By measuring the potentiometer, the servo controller can tell how far it has turned and send a signal to tell it when to stop.
Controlling the Servo
Servo motors usually have three wires, two which provide power and one which provides a control signal. The control signal uses pulse width modulation. It sends pulses of electricity to the servo every 20 milliseconds. The duration, or "width", of each pulse tells the motor what position to turn to. The motor has control circuitry inside that sends signals to move into position and to stop once it gets there.

Allegro Artistic Director Brian Norcross honored with a marvelous video and article in Fig Magazine. Click here to enjoy!
Twenty years ago, a group of musicians gathered together in the living room of a residence in Lancaster City and played the music they loved. It was intimate and joyful, and in that very moment, an idea was born: What if every classical music concert could carry this same feeling of familiarity and happiness?
Allegro is committed to cultivating new audiences for classical music by sharing our passion and love of music with the Lancaster community through innovative and accessible programming. Inspired by the vision of Founder and Artistic Director, Dr. Brian Norcross, the ensemble embodies the classic definition by Catherine Drinker Bowen of chamber music as "a conversation between friends." Most of Allegro's immensely talented professional players are from Lancaster County. Their love of great music – and of playing together – shows in every performance.
Allegro means joyful … fast and lively … a different musical experience …
We invite you to experience the joy of Allegro! Allegro brings the music to life through concerts that are specially designed to be engaging, enjoyable and fun. Our musicians clearly love what they are doing. The players mingle with the audience before concerts, during intermission and after performances.
Allegro's conductor, Brian Norcross, is well known throughout the region for his superb musicianship, positive focus, and unique ability to relate to audiences. His sharing of anecdotes about the composers and their work increases everyone's understanding and appreciation of the complexities of the music.
Allegro receives state arts funding support through a grant from the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, a state agency funded by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency.

It's funny how my milkweed plants (and I have dozens of them trying to
encourage the monarch re-population effort!) get very infested with
aphids that don't seem to go anywhere but on the milkweeds...they can
completely cover a single plant but there is where they stay...and with
my roses I'd be the first to notice if they were invading my garden
otherwise. Course it helps that I also have milkweed beetles that eat
the aphids, plus lots of ladybug beetles that do as well.

Donna, I've read that the bright orange aphids on Asclepias are
pretty
common but not universal. Water blasts and hand picking of

Ray Harryhausen died yesterday. For my money, he was the greatest special effects artist of the 20th century. I absolutely loved his stop motion animation. He began his career working under Willis O'Brien on the original King Kong. However he went on to surpass O'Brien by developing what the New York Times said was the process Harryhausen called "Dynamation. It involved photographing a miniature — of a dinosaur, say — against a rear-projection screen through a partly masked pane of glass. The masked portion would then be re-exposed to insert foreground elements from the live footage. The effect was to make the creature appear to move in the midst of live action. It could now be seen walking behind a live tree, or be viewed in the middle distance over the shoulder of a live actor — effects difficult to achieve before." If you want to see real special effects, check out the Jason and his crew sword fighting against the raised-from-the-dead skeletons in Jason and the Argonauts.
We saw some very different 'special effects' for the UK listed company Eurasian Natural Resources Corp (ENRC) in the month of April. As reported in the UK Telegraph, the title of the April 30 piece says it all – "ENRC's annual report is full of laughs – for all the wrong reasons", reporter Alistair Osborne says that the worldwide mining conglomerate's value "has been disappearing down the mineshaft." While all of the company's economic metrics were headed downward, the company's chairman, Mehmet Dalman declared "The primary focus for 2013 will be to maximise shareholder value through the implementation of our strategic priorities." Unfortunately, Chairman Dalman wrote this statement before he resigned as company chairman.
What was it that led to this resignation? It may be something related to an announcement by the UK Serious Fraud Office (SFO) that it "has launched a criminal investigation into Eurasian Natural Resources Corporation (ENRC) amid allegations of fraud, bribery and corruption". In an article, entitled "SFO launches criminal investigation into ENRC", it states the "SFO has confirmed that it has taken over an internal investigation by the mining giant into allegations made by a whistleblower relating to its operations in Africa and Kazakhstan."
According to an article in the Financial Times (FT), entitled "ENRC looks to dig itself out of a hole", some of these allegations in Africa related to claims that the company became involved in deals in the Congo and with transactions involving its President, Joseph Kabila. One of these transactions involved the purchase of mining rights in a project "outside the town of Kolwezi, which had been confiscated by the Congo government from the Toronto-listed miner First Quantum." After legal action by the Canadian company, ENRC "settled with its rival for $1.25 bn." The allegations of bribery and corruption in Kazakhstan relate to allegations of fraudulent payments at ENRC's Kazakhstan unit Sokolovsko-Sarbai, known as SSGPO.
Unfortunately, ENRC seems to be stumbling over itself as it has investigated these whistleblower allegations. The first stumble was when ENRC dismissed its lead internal investigator, Alex Gaft. This individual dismissal came after ENRC dismissed the US law firm Dechert, which had headed up the external investigations of these allegations. This dismissal came after Dechert presented a preliminary report to the SFO, which the FT said "raised concerns over payments totalling at least $100m over four years."
According to the FT, Dechert received a Section 2a notice, immediately after being terminated, "and just weeks before a second report into ENRC's business practices in Africa was due to be handed to the SFO, say people familiar with the investigation. The SFO uses Section 2a notices specifically to demand information at a pre-investigation stage when it suspects overseas bribery and corruption, its website says. Sending out such a notice to the law firm signalled that the SFO felt it could no longer depend on the information provided by the company alone. The SFO now has the job of investigating the African operations of ENRC, which recently hired ex-attorney general Lord Goldsmith as a legal adviser."
To top off all of the above dismissals of investigators and investigating law firms, the ENRC representative who was overseeing the internal investigation was none other than Chairman Dalman, the same person who resigned his position last week. Now the SFO has taken over the investigation, which according to the FT means that it can "use its full criminal powers such as arrests, dawn raids and demands for documents."
Thebriberyact.com guys have been telling us that the SFO is still out there and SFO enforcement cases are moving forward. When you have a lead internal investigator dismissed, external counsel let go and your own chairman heading an investigation all leave a public company within 30 days, it is bound to get the attention of regulators. I wonder if the Department of Justice may have noticed?

The Claremont City Council Tuesday, June 25, will review the group's proposal to build a stage at Shelton Park, 100 W. Bonita Ave. Marketing group members have focused efforts on raising money for a new band stage to be constructed at the little corner park, and had planned on gifting the stage to the city.

Entire Story Brightest light in the sky June 24, 2013 10:19 AM By now everyone in Southern California is aware of the Supermoons that lit up the sky this weekend. Sunday, June 23 was the official date where the moon was going to be the brightest, even though it was difficult to tell from earlier in the weekend. Photographing the moon proved difficult because it rose later in the evening just after 8:30 p.m. The dark sky made it impossible for the camera to expose correctly for the moon and ambient light. In this case, I let the moon go bright so you could see part of the palm tree near my North Claremont home. Take a picture of the moon? Check out our Facebook page and post. COURIER photo/Peter Weinberger Entire Story School board inches closer to Service Center relocation June 21, 2013 5:31 PM At their last meeting, members of the Claremont Unified School District Board of Education gave direction to the architects at Flewelling & Moody to draw up plans for placement of a new Service Center on the grounds of the CUSD District Office at 170 W.

The estimated construction cost for the southwest corner option is $1,405,410 plus a soft cost of $252,974 for unexpected contingencies, making for a total project cost of $1,658,384, according to Mr. Moreto. Entire Story City officials want updated information on Gold Line transportation plan June 20, 2013 9:40 PM Claremont officials are calling out the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) for lack of transparency as the MTA board prepares to approve changes to a multi-million dollar expenditure plan, which includes the expansion of the Gold Line light rail. This Thursday, June 27, the board will consider amending the expenditure plan approved by voters in 2008 as part of the Measure R Traffic Relief and Rail Expansion. Measure R imposed a half-cent sales tax increase in order to fund critical highway and transportation projects throughout the county, including the Gold Line. Entire Story The walls come tumbling down June 19, 2013 4:28 PM Workers use an excavator to demolish the historic Pitzer Ranch foreman's residence on Wednesday near the corner of Padua Avenue and Base Line Road in Claremont. The property's developer had attempted to sell the fieldstone structure earlier in the year but could not find a buyer. The site is being cleared to make way for a 50-unit condominium development. COURIER photo/Steven Felschundneff Entire Story | Photo Gallery Strawberry patch likely to get townhome makeover June 19, 2013 4:14 PM The undeveloped lot at Base Line Road and Towne Avenue, known to many as Claremont's "Strawberry Patch," may be getting a makeover similar to other vacant stretches along the north Claremont Highway. Planning commissioners Tuesday conducted a preliminary review of developer City Ventures plan to build up the empty 6-acre lot with townhomes. Similar townhome developments are filling in vacancies along Base Line Road at both Padua Avenue as well as Mountain Avenue. Entire Story Park survey results needed to tweak parking regulations June 19, 2013 4:03 PM Despite concerns over parking at the Claremont Hills Wilderness Park, the city's efforts to survey the problem have been received with lacking interest, according to Claremont officials. Of 220 surveys mailed out to residents living on streets near the bustling park, only 81 surveys—37 percent—were returned, shared City Manager Tony Ramos. Since the opening of the park's expanded north parking lot, and enforcement of the lot's now metered parking, many locals have vocalized concern that eager Wilderness Park hikers are finding loopholes to avoid paying. Entire Story Splish-splash the day away June 18, 2013 4:29 PM With Claremont temperatures reaching the upper 80's, it's easy to see why 4-year-old Kai Bush was the first to eagerly run through the Memorial Park wading pool Tuesday morning, June 18. Now there are even more ways for the family to beat the heat as pools all around Claremont are officially open for the summer. The Memorial Park pool hours are Monday through Friday, 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. until August 23. For more information call 399-5490. COURIER photo/Collette Weinberger Entire Story Scenery, storytelling characterize folksy music festival June 18, 2013 10:11 AM The Claremont Folk Festival, held on Saturday at the Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden (RSABG), was a rousing success this year, with guests raving about the lineup and the scenic new venue. There's no sugarcoating it. With the festival running all day starting at 10 a.m. and with temperatures approaching the 90s, the event was a real scorcher. There were plenty of trees to duck under, however, and with vendors selling snow cones, ice cream and cold beer, there were plenty of ways to beat the heat. "It was really enjoyable. The crowd was surprisingly mellow and manageable," reported Emily Moultrie, co-owner of Claremont Craft Ales, whose brews proved to be one of the festival's more popular wares.

«Japan's latest disaster flick . . . is a disaster. ... If you are expecting samurai-like stoicism from Yuji and the other the male survivors, you are in for a letdown — they all fall into hysterics, which according to local, disaster-pic convention is proof of not their wimpishness but their feeling, human hearts.»
«252: Signal of Life had moments where it could have struck a fine balance in presenting an action-packed flick if it could have tightened up some of the incessant repetition, and to have given itself enough time to explore the human dilemma of self-preservation versus the call of duty. Instead it became an unnecessary comedy filled with cardboard yet invincible characters.»
«252 Signal of Life would make a great recruitment film or a company outing event (albeit the incorrectness). The message is undeniably wholesome and reaffirming for those who are involved with civil service. It's a pity that this film flounders at delivering this message by forcing machismo in the most laughable manner down the audience throat.»

People write in pointing out frequent occasions when we write "coruscate" but mean "excoriate". Earlier this month, for instance, we reported on how the Government's chief scientific adviser had launched a "withering attack" on the US administration's toleration of climate change. The attack came, we said, in a "coruscating article".
People write in pointing out frequent occasions when we write "coruscate" but mean "excoriate". Earlier this month, for instance, we reported on how the Government's chief scientific adviser had launched a "withering attack" on the US administration's toleration of climate change. The attack came, we said, in a "coruscating article".
"Coruscate" means to give off flashes of light. "Excoriate" means to flay. To confuse the two is one of the most common malapropisms and is, of course, deplorable. But I wonder (and here I risk being struck off the rolls of the Ancient and Inexorable Order of Pedants and Logic-Choppers) whether it is quite the disaster it is made out to be. The fear is that if we carry on using "coruscate" to mean criticise severely we shall lose it in its proper meaning, just as we risk allowing "presently" to decay into a synonym for "now" and "protagonist" into a synonym for "advocate".
These latter would be real losses. In their proper senses these two words have no synonyms. But "coruscate"? When we have shine, glitter, glow, glimmer, shimmer, flicker and twinkle, how desperately do we need "coruscate" as well?
But let us fight the good fight, for though "coruscate" might not be much of a loss, "excoriate" must be saved. It has a unique force. We need this image of criticism so severe that it strips off your skin.
Not over yet: Further proof that the word "over" should be banned from headlines comes from the front page of The Independent on Sunday: "Hoon faces censure over body armour for UK troops." "Over", as usual, leads the headline writer down the fatally easy slope from saying what is happening to merely specifying an area of concern. It is a descent from precision into fuzziness.
In this case the headline ends up saying the opposite of what it means. The complaint against Mr Hoon is not about body armour for UK troops: it is about no body armour for UK troops.
Black day: More headline trouble on Monday, with this marching across two pages of the compact edition: "Accused of taking £118m, deposed as head of his empire - is this Black's Moscow retreat?"
Two things wrong.
First, you tinker with familiar sayings at your peril. The Retreat from Moscow is the Retreat from Moscow. If there isn't room for the "from", just dump it and think of something else. "Black's Moscow retreat" has no Napoleonic magic at all; it sounds like a holiday dacha in the woods. (By the way, the Retreat from Moscow took place more than a year before Napoleon's first abdication, so it isn't much of a parallel with Lord Black's predicament now.)
Second, the reference to £118m is an appalling example of a currency conversion trying to be more precise then the original figure, one of the crassest blunders a newspaper can be guilty of. The accusation Lord Black must answer makes no mention of a sum of £118m. The report below told of "a case of alleged corporate pillage amounting to more than $200m (£118m)". It is perfectly clear that $200m is a very rough round figure and the sterling conversion is there only for intellectual completeness. Why didn't the headline just say "Accused of taking $200m ..."? Everybody knows more or less how much the US dollar is worth.
Formerly alive: The long and daft history of the word "former" achieved a new height of daftness in a news report on Thursday: "Israelis reacted with shock and anger yesterday to the news that the man who murdered the former Israeli prime minister Yitzhak Rabin in 1995 was engaged to be married."
In any sentence referring to anyone who once held an office, "former" seems to pop up without human volition. In this case it is both redundant and untrue. Redundant because the sentence states that Rabin is dead, so there is no danger of confusion with the present Israeli prime minister. Untrue because Rabin was never a former Israeli prime minister: thanks to his assassin he went straight from being the current prime minister to being dead.Reuse content

Before we begin:
– Be sure you read last week's Best and Worst of Raw and Best and Worst of Super Smackdown before reading this week's, because this week is completely different and doesn't regurgitate any of those old talking points I have to come up with a clever way to say every week for the rest of my life.
– Yesterday was Labor Day, and with Hurricane Irene taking over the east coast of the United States (for one reason or another) things have been a little light here, so I'm going to do my prerequisite begging: If you check out this column, show it to everybody you know who has ever heard of pro wrestling and please, LEAVE US A COMMENT. That's in capital letters so you'll see it if you're skimming. We want to hear your thoughts on the show, we want to know what you thought was funny, we want to know about any bests and worsts we might've missed. With Leather sort of lives or dies by your interaction, and I really appreciate it.
– Be sure to follow @WithLeather or @MrBrandonStroud for report and site updates, and because it's just a good idea.
Enjoy this week's Best and Worst of Raw, after the jump.
Worst: So We're Really Going To Recap This For Four Minutes
Pre-Raw video packages are usually caught somewhere between a Best and a Worst. Sometimes we get something special, like Placebo's "Running Up That Hill" to promote the Shawn Michaels/Undertaker rematch or Undertaker's unborn child never knowing his father because Brock Lesnar murdered him in terrifying Latin, but most of the time it's a loud, color-shaded reiteration of stuff we wished we could've fast-forwarded through last week. Nondescript crowd noise with someone speaking over it in a slight echo has become my brain's signal for "okay, Raw is on", and this week's took that so far and so thoroughly that my brain ended up watching like four episodes at once.
Four minutes is how long this video package was. The first four minutes of the show. It took four minutes to explain what's been going on with Triple H, CM Punk and Kevin Nash — it had to explain how Nash got there, how somebody sent somebody a text about beating up somebody, how everyone is extremely upset about what everyone else says about them and how Punk answered a challenge to demonstrate his bravery by putting on a leather jacket and water-skiing up a ramp to clear a shark in Los Angeles. By the time it ended I felt like I'd just watched them talk again, and when "Cult of Personality" hit and Punk squatted to spout the same balls purse rhetoric he's been reiterating for a month I realized we hadn't even started. Nash wandered out, Triple H wandered out, and the segment went on for 17 minutes (including video package) to build to one (1) punch and one (1) firing that could've just as easily happened last week when H told Nash to go and he said he wouldn't because Johnny Ace had hired him.
I think my ability to come up with something new to say about these things is directly proportional to how interesting they've been. It has taken them four weeks to do one shove and one punch. I'm guessing with a week to go before Night of Champions they'll pull off something awesome, like that money segment with Shawn Michaels that finally made H vs. Taker at Wrestlemania seem like a huge deal after a month of pensive staring.
Best: I Have Also Seen Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2
CM Punk: "You have more excuses than you have nicknames, isn't that right Big Daddy Cool Diesellllllll? Or Vinnie Vegas! Bearded giraffe. I could call you Oz, maybe Super Shredder, I don't think a lot of people are gonna get that one!"
It's official. I feel like CM Punk has patronized me for the first time ever. The only thing that would've made it worse would've been a "heh", or maybe Punk using real names to show how smart he is about wrestling, like wrestling news sites that say "PHILLIP JACK BROOKS" is their wrestler of the week. It feels weird and bad to live in a world where somebody can mention the Ninja Turtles on a pop culture show like Raw and have to assume that nobody watching will understand. Honestly, I'm going to guess that more people know Kevin Nash was in Ninja Turtles 2 than know about Oz. If you want to go obscure with your Secret of the Ooze references you can't say "Ninja Rap" and stand there waiting for a response, you have to reference how Ernie "Keno" Reyes Jr. was in Surf Ninjas, or even better, "Sidekicks". The show, not the Jonathan Brandis movie. Or you can just reference that scene where Shredder holds out the ooze and Keno bursts through the door to kick it out of his hands, but the door is all the way on the other side of the club so Keno's gotta sprint across the dance floor and Shredder just has to stand there holding out the ooze like a moron. Or how the police just left Shredder's body in the garbage. Hold on, I need to write The Best And Worst Of Ninja Turtles 2.
I gave this a worst because of how much I like the Ninja Turtles, but damn, "bearded giraffe" came across as the most awful Internet and/or babyface Chris Jericho thing of all time. All he needed was a Titan-tron video full of photoshops.
Worst: The End Of Text Gate
Kevin Nash snuck into Triple H's office to send himself a text, instead of just saying he got a text.
oh f**k you.
Worst: I Got A Little Emotional! I Put My Hands On Ya! I Thought Friends Could Do That!
If you didn't LOL when Kevin Nash busted out I THOUGHT WE WAS FRIENDS!, you aren't mine. Holy sh**, I've been trying to justify Nash's role in all of this since he showed up and shat in my cereal at Summerslam, but good god damn is he not the most embarrassing human being in the world right now. It's starting to get sad. Listen to him shout about how he was "trying to make WWE cool again". How were you doing that, by mentioning texting? By starting "Twitter wars"? John Cena does those things. Is John Cena cool? I am a good enough writer to explain John Cena as a lot of things, but God and inspiration have not created a Muse powerful enough for me to say John Cena is cool. Nobody in pro wrestling is cool.
That's the one thing nobody can seem to accept, and why Stone Cold Steve Austin riding around on a four-wheeler with a pennant on it or a Planet of the Apes-themed pie-fight have always made their protagonists look like disconnected assholes. Pro wrestling is awesomely UN-cool, which is why the least cool people around (a balding orange guy in yellow underpants who used to be fat, for example) become the most popular. The Rock didn't get popular being a handsome muscular movie star, he got popular when he wore shirts with gold lamé lions on them, had pineapple hair and made "poontang pie" references to a fat guy in a nightshirt with a sock on his hand. Stone Cold Steve Austin wasn't cool, he was a violent redneck in jean shorts who couldn't follow rules and gave a voice to the restless populace his show attracted. Ric Flair was cool, but the people we cheered on to defeat him included a heavyset plumber's son with a speech impediment and a white guy with a flat-top and USA face paint. I can literally provide examples for the rest of my life.
Best: Nelson Muntz, And Insider References We Enjoy
The two best things to happen in last night's opening half hour salvo were:
1. CM Punk pointing at Kevin Nash and doing the Simpsons "HAW HAW" laugh
2. CM Punk wishing a fired Kevin Nash the best in his future endeavors
Both of those things happened off-mic. I'm going to be assumptive enough to guess those were Punk's only two contributions to his ten minutes of Oz Calling, because I want the guy I like to be good at things.
Best: Tag Team Matches Are Happening
Say what you will about Air Boom (and I will), but God bless them for being WWE's excuse for a refocused tag team division. They still have separate entrances, but at least Evan is lingering long enough to participate in the fireworks. They still don't have "Air Boom" anywhere on their gear, in their entrance video or their nameplate graphics, but at least they're being formally announced as "Evan Bourne and Kofi King-stannn, Air! Boom!" They still don't have tag teams to wrestle, but at least they're wrestling tag team matches.
Worst: Non-Title Matches
This is a big one for me with two examples on this show: World Heavyweight Champion Randy Orton faced Heath Slater and WWE Tag Champions Space Jam took on Jinder Mahal and The Great Khali. Both matches were easily won by the champions, but both matches were non-title.
In the long long ago, I can see the point in having Hulk Hogan wrestle Iron Mike Sharpe and having it be non-title, because Sharpe didn't beat anybody to earn any kind of opportunity and a title defense against a jobber makes Hogan look like he's padding his reign with tomato cans. In modern WWE, where "jobbers" only exist in local challenges and every person on TV is a Young Superstar With Great Potential and WWE title belts are props you misplaced and forgot about, there is no reason to have Kofi Kingston and Evan Bourne beat Jinder Mahal and The Great Khali in a non-title match. If Mahal and Khali aren't good enough to compete for the championships, they shouldn't be wrestling the champions. They could be wrestling Miz and Truth for a CHANCE to wrestle the champions, or we could just say "Khali used to be world champ and is big, so" and add a +1 to Air Boom's title defenses. Either of those things would be better than that terrible, terrible booking choice that gave us three months of McGillicutty and Otunga losing to everybody but still being champion. This is why those Swagger, Sheamus and Mysterio reigns all seemed so sh*tty — there is no place in our fictional world for a champion who is not at least AS good as his challengers. Bottom line.
Right now your major goal needs to be legitimizing the WWE Tag Team Championships and the men who hold them. Legitimize challengers by having them compete for a chance to FACE those champions, an act that indirectly makes your champs look better because people are giving it their all to have what they have. This is the easiest thing, and the reason a billion-dollar industry was born out of something farmhands and carnival jerks used to plot out to steal nickels from city folk. If Gotch could beat Hackenschmidt 10 times in a row in three minutes or less, why do I give a sh*t about Hackenschmidt's 11th match? I'm going to ride the ferris wheel.
Best: Khali's Monster Hand
Great Khali has two great finishing holds
1. Brain Squeeze
2. Touching your head with his big hand
I love Khali's "brain chop", even if it's technically a big festering Worst. At some point somebody who can communicate with Khali needs to pull him aside and say "the only thing we expect you to do is chop, so at least stiffen your hand when you move it". This isn't 1950s science fiction, I'm not going to fall down and die because the monster brushed his hands against me. They should at least explain that Jinder makes Khali soak his hands in chloroform before his matches. It would work into that whole "Khali must do whatever Jinder says because Jinder is married to his sister and will leave and shame her if he doesn't" thing that apparently can't be solved by somebody in Khali's family watching Smackdown.
Worst: Alberto Del Rio's Inconspicuous Absence
As the Internet's leading supporter of Alberto Del Rio (gonna go ahead and christen myself that so he'll know who I am when I try to meet him at a San Antonio mall next month) I cheered out loud when I saw him pull up in his car with specialty Alberto Del Rio license plates (license plate number: Alberto Del Rio). It took Michael Cole about four seconds to ruin the experience by saying Del Rio was "inconspicuous by his absence last week".
Michael Cole is one of maybe seven people who gets paid by WWE to speak for a living. I guess I shouldn't be surprised, as the rest of his job description is "make the wrestlers seem good and important".
so, again
Best: Kelly Kelly, Master Debater
Most people who read The Best and Worst of Raw regularly probably saw this one coming, and felt it from the moment "Challah (Theme From Kelly Kelly)" played and the Divas champion food-serviced the Divas Championship to the ringside area for special guest commentary. One of Raw's greatest-ever lines of dialogue occurred during the shouting match between K2 and Natalya:
Natalya: "You're a sorry excuse for a Divas champion and you need to be educated as well as the WWE Universe."
Kelly: "You're a sorry excuse for … bein' here!"
Cole consistently tried to overshadow and ruin everything by mentioning how Jim Ross loves barbecue sauce every time there was a pause, but it wasn't enough. I could listen to Kelly as Drunk Leslie Knope attempting to argue talking points without knowing facts or having a point until the end of time, and suggest a WWE.com series where they bring in the world's most literate minds to discuss things like abortion and health care at ringside with Kelly. I want to hear Congresswoman Louise Slaughter say, "Contraceptives have a proven track record of enhancing the health of women and children, preventing unintended pregnancy, and reducing the need for abortion" and for Kelly to respond with "Contraceptives have a proven track record of you even being here right now".
And honestly, Kelly isn't arguing the right points here. The point she should make is "Natalya and Beth say they want to educate the WWE Universe, but all they've done in the last month is clap, say they aren't jealous and lose to me". The point she makes is "shut up, no you aren't". The point she should be making is "I got this job because I'm pretty, but a lot of pretty girls have come and gone since I showed up, and I'm still here and winning championships because I worked hard to improve in the ring, and I think the people see that, and that's why they support me". The points she makes are "shut up" and "I worked my butt off to get here", and I don't want to overstep the bounds of masculine decency, but I don't think what Batista did to you was "working your butt off". Speaking of, I think the only way this commentary track could've been funnier and worse is if Randy Orton had been sitting at the timekeeper's table, and every couple of seconds they cut over to him making a face that said "oh man, THIS whore".
Best: Vegetables
"The WWE Universe does not know any better, okay? The WWE Universe wants candy, and candy rots their teeth out. Beth Phoenix and I are here to educate the Universe on what is best for them, and it may be vegetables."
That is such a fantastic quote from Natalya. So fantastic, in fact, that it distracted me from noticing Eve as Sin Cara 3 botching lucha transitions. I love vegetables. I'm vegan, they're all I eat. As such, my quinoa is KANA, my portabella is Portia Perez and my Del Monte is Del Rey. I've lived on this diet for years, and it makes me feel good about myself and enjoy nearly everything I eat. When I ate meat (Lita, in this example) it seemed like the right thing to do, but it just didn't feel right. Vegetables are the best decision.
Worst: Natalya And Beth Aren't Really Educating Us On Anything
As a vegan who isn't trying to get over as a heel with a Lifestyle Society I also recognize that a vegan diet may not be for everyone. People who Twitter about what they grilled or have Facebook photo albums dedicated to thinks like bags of marinade might only be able to understand Lita, and something rough and green like Veda Scott might not sit well in their stomachs. They can be taught to enjoy Veda (because she's cute, and her promos make her sound like Romy from Romy and Michelle's High School Reunion), but coming right out and saying "you don't make good lifestyle choices and can't help it because you don't know any better" doesn't come across as facts, it comes across as confrontation, something to be booed.
That's the bad part of this story. Beth and Nattie should should should should should should be educating the WWE Universe on how women's wrestling can be as entertaining and valuable as men's wrestling, because it is 2011 and we really should've stopped assuming women aren't human beings a long time ago. The problem is that they're approaching it the way they approached CM Punk's Straight Edge lifestyle — as the crazed ramblings of a jealous jerk who is just in it for himself. That works for Punk, but it doesn't work for two women who are going to live or die by the resolution. Natalya should say "here is why zucchini might be a better idea for your heart than pork" by saying "check out this Bull Nakano match, see how awesome she is? We could be trying to find more women like her". It's like Inception, you can't implant an idea, you have to trick the person into thinking the idea was theirs to begin with. Nattie and Beth aren't doing that, they're just saying EAT THE VEGETABLES. That's why so many kids grow up into adults who still think vegetables are gross. Conditioning, something that 20 years of us accepting Honky Tonk Man as a "great Intercontinental Champion" and not as a f**king worthless Elvis impersonator wrestler should show you WWE is great at.
If I want to convince someone I love to consider what food does below their mouth and not just how good it tastes in it, I invite them over and make them a delicious, filling vegan meal. Similarly, if I want to convince someone that women's wrestling isn't a sideshow for panty screencaps and the ass as a paintbrush, I invite them over and pop in a copy of Dreamslam. It's not right for everyone, maybe, but there's a guy in the audience who secretly really loves vegetables and needs to see some people who aren't psychotic a-holes eating them and leading a normal life.
Best case scenario, Beth wins the title at Night Of Champions and I get to write the headline KELLY KELLY F*CKED BY VEGETABLE
Best: Please Leave, Yoshi Tatsu
I didn't get to give ADR any Bests last week, so this week I'm gonna try to give him one on every page. He shooed away Drew McIntyre to have a conversation with Christian and made Tyler Reks and Curt Hawkins leave the room so he could talk to Wade Barrett. I want Alberto Del Rio's new job to be making the cast of Superstars leave whatever room they're in.
Best: R-Truth And The Miz
Watch this clip and tell me it isn't the exact same promo, down to Truth's facial expressions and Miz's inappropriate golf clothes.
Boy, I like epiphalies.
Best: Air Boom Is Bout Bad As A Sneaky Fart
It's a little bit of air, and then kaboom.
I'm pretty happy that it only took two weeks for somebody to compare Air Boom to a fart, and even happier that the concept of a shart has been introduced into WWE continuity outside of those Sid matches where he accidentally craps his pants. Truth and Miz continue to be the biggest babyface team of 2012 by being the simplest and most effective heels in 2011, ignoring the insider comments and pandering "I'm gonna kick yerrr assss!" stuff everybody else is doing to just interfere in each others' matches and be a memorable part of the show. This is Miz's bread and butter — the only reason he got to the position he's in now is because of how much work he put into making every Dirt Sheet and Miz/Morrison appearance something to remember. Pairing him with R-Truth just gives him the biggest, slowest softball lob ever.
I'm also happy that Miz and Truth get to challenge Swiffer Kaboom at Night Of Champions, and pending a Truth and Miz loss (which should happen) I'm happy to see the feud continue with a deeper reasoning than the "nobody cares about tag teams, well nobody's booking us in matches, hey let's face each other and hope it goes well" thing they've been cobbling together. This could be the start of something truly wonderful, especially if they bring in Rich Swann as R-Truth's little brother, Cotton.
Worst: Punk Vs. Truth Was Pretty Good, But You'd Never Know It
Somewhere around CM Punk and R-Truth's match, Michael Cole's good will silence and cooperation from last week eroded completely, and the commentary that is supposed to serve as a soundtrack to the action and efforts of the pro wrestlers in the ring turned into Michael Cole trolling some real life version of the Internet and Jim Ross trying to remember why he shouldn't just kill himself in front of everybody and be done with it. This is actual, verbatim dialogue from the top rated television show on cable.
Cole: "That's nice I'm glad everybody can have an opinion out here without you calling them STUPID, ALL YOUR OPINIONS ARE STUPID, HOW ABOUT THAT."
JR: "That's fine."
[long silence]
Lawler: "there's a cover by, r-truth, uh"
Cole: "It'd be fine if it was 1959."
JR: "What's that mean? What's the relevance of your-"
Cole: [mocking JR] "IT'S BREAKIN DOWN IN COLUMBUS HERE TONIGHT."
[long silence]
Cole: [still mocking JR] "AR-TRUTH"
[long silence]
Cole: "What, Lawler? You're all excited because you've got a match coming up next."
Lawler: "And I'm trying to get excited about THIS match."
Also awful was Cole saying "jazz-a-bell" and not knowing what Jezebel is because he's never read the Bible. Fire all three of them, give Scott Stanford the play-by-play job and let's all move the f**k on with our f**king lives.
Super Worst: Jerry Lawler Saying Michael Cole Should Calm Down Before He Has A Stroke
He's sitting next to you.
Worst: So, Uh, About That Contract Signing
Pointing out logic loopholes on televised pro wrestling is sorta like pointing out handicapped people at the Special Olympics, but last night featured a big one — after firing Kevin Nash, Triple H decides to change his match with CM Punk at Night Of Champions and make it no disqualification, anything goes. The big question is this: If you can just say "oh yeah, I've also just decided that I can hit you with weapons", what was the point of the contract signing last week? Was there a "we can add or take away any part of this match as long as we say it in public" clause? If so, why the hell would CM Punk sign it? See, this is how Stone Cold Steve Austin kept getting into matches where Vince and the Stooges would add stips and falls on the fly. I guess WWE contracts are like Apple service agreements, and wrestlers just sign them to keep the square from popping up.
This is great proof that WWE writes their stories as they go. We wouldn't have to have Jeff Katz organizing "revolutionary three-act storytelling" in his arthouse independent promotion if WWE creative said "this is the beginning, this is the middle, this is the end" before putting it on live television and paying people to act it out. I don't want to be that guy who harps on wrestling's equivalent to "those clowns in congress", but Jesus Christ, what exactly is your job, WWE Creative? Is it to come up with first and last names for people and that's it? Does everybody just show up and wing it? Is pro wrestling seriously just an improv comedy group with issues, because I've been trying to justify it as a sports-themed televisions how for like the last 30 years. If I knew I could show up to a wrestling event and shout "HOSPITAL" and you'd have to stage the next segment in a hospital I would've bought a ticket to Wrestlemania negative one and shouted GOOD WRESTLING AND THINGS I CAN UNDERSTAND in 1980 f**king four.
Worst: WWE Stimulus Response
WWE has trained us to expect certain outcomes when we hear certain words. For example, when you hear "non-title match" and it isn't a Main Event Guy against Heath Slater, you think "okay, the champions are going to lose because it's non-title and that'll set up a thing". The 19th CM Punk and Triple H conversation of the month featured two big ones:
Which has two responses, one being "one of the wrestlers is old and can't do a lot, so they're making it no DQ so it'll be exciting and nobody will really have to bump" and the other being "people are going to interfere in the match". The first one is a continuation of the No Holds Barred match between Triple H and the Undertaker at Wrestlemania, where if you take away the chair and the sledgehammer and the tables it's just two guys sitting still for forty minutes. The second one, when coupled with footage of a fired Kevin Nash leaving the arena with John Laurinaitis, conjures up images of the nWo music and Buff Bagwell's strut-to-kneeling-pose and all sorts of terrible schmozzy sh*t that at best can be aluminum trash can spots and at worst can be you never ever watching again ever.
I was okay with Triple H making his match with Punk no disqualification, because why not? Add in some table stuff, give Punk a trash can lid so Triple H can get hit and feel justified in falling down, that sort of thing. Then, Punk did two huge no-nos: he brought up the fact that Triple H has hit people with sledgehammers for years and not killed anyone (wrestling is fake wrestling is fake wrestling is fake) and he said that he'd agree to the stipulation Triple H assumedly has the power to just decide if H agreed to his: that if he won at Night Of Champions, Triple H has to resign as COO.
"You lose, you quit" stipulations are like deaths in comic books. Sure, it's pretty sad when Colossus died, but guess what? He died like four times before you started reading, and he's going to die two or three more times when you stop. John Cena got fired twice in a calendar year. Mick Foley lost a retirement match to Triple H over ten years ago … two years ago I saw him wrestle Sting in the main event of a pay-per-view in Philadelphia, and now there are rumors about how he wants to come back. Now CM Punk is either a lock to lose, or the no disqualification suggestions of Vicious and Delicious are dangerously close to coming true, and Night Of Champions is going to be one of those "game changing moments" they keep having that don't really change the game but book two months of primetime television around backstage quarrels and 50-year olds we've chosen not to watch every Thursday for the past five years.
Just… have a good match, okay? Have fun with it and give us something to cheer for besides the talking points we make up.
Best: Zack Ryder Has Sort Of Arrived
I don't know if a tag team victory on Raw against Medium Dave and M-Dogg 19 alongside an announcer constitutes "arriving", but you can't help but feel good seeing Zack Ryder get a video package and a duke on the A-show. Ryder is proof that not everybody who works hard to get better and get themselves over on Superstars for a year gets fired for their efforts, and even though it might've been nice for them not to reinforce their "personality is the only thing that matters" talking point to do it, I'm glad they're giving Ryder a shot.
With the new focus on tag team wrestling, I'd love to see Ryder and Lawler get stuck together as a tag team. Lawler is still a solid hand in the ring, and a is a hell of a lot better and more bearable throwing punches at McGoobersnatch than he is bickering with Michael Cole. Ryder might not have what it takes to be a huge singles star, but he's definitely good enough of a Santino to make crowds happy when he tags in a hits a few moves. Tag team wrestlers can make a lot of money and have a lot of success without ever really doing anything, and if you don't know what I mean, ask Robert Gibson, Marty Jannetty or Mustafa. Hell, the fact that I can remember Mustafa existing is a testament to tag team wrestling's worth. Use Lawler's history with The Miz to get Truth and Miz a victory on their way to the titles. Give Trouble In Star Press a fun defense on Raw. This is good for everybody.
Best: Best Moment On The Show
The Alberto Del Rio Best Of This Page actually goes to Ricardo Rodriguez. Watch the segment where ADR approaches Dolph Ziggler about helping him take out John Cena. The Bella Twins show up out of nowhere to flirt with Del Rio and he doesn't care, because he's got a 10,000 acre estate and rents girls like the Bellas every week (even if he doesn't know their name) — but Ricardo watches them with subdued glee, then watches them leave, because he's Alberto Del Rio's best employee and good friend and you KNOW Del Rio is sophisticated enough to pick the hot Bella (Nikki) and slide the rest (Brie) to his staff.
The wink to Ziggler at the end of the segment said it all. Ricardo gets to hold the WWE Championship while they walk around. Ricardo gets to hook up with extraneous Bella Twins. All he's got to do is open Alberto's door when they stop and occasionally manslaughter people with his car. He's got it made, damas y caballeros.
Best: Heath Slater
While he gets a huge Worst for his weird Jimmy Hart "Flirtin' With Disaster" entrance theme, Heath Slater getting a spot on Raw against Orton (non-title or no) is great for a number of reasons.
1. It's not a match we've seen 100 times before, and the thing Raw needs most is things we haven't seen 100 times before.
2. Heath Slater is one of the very best people in the WWE at pretending to be hurt. Watch him get punched in the face by the Big Show and tell me anyone out there could do it better.
3. Randy Orton matches are great when the guy he's facing can take his offense and make it look painful (see also, last week's match with Dolph Ziggler)
I've read a lot of people saying this match shouldn't have happened because Heath "got no response" as he came to the ring. I don't think this could be any more misguided. Firstly, Orton got a great response entering, wrestling, winning and leaving. Heath Slater's ability to contribute to Orton's pro wrestling by taking a nice looking beating is invaluable, and if cool wrestlers who did cool moves only did them to equally cool wrestlers who never got hurt this would be Ring Of Honor. Secondly, we've got to stop judging every wrestler on a scale of how many people cheer when he appears. When CM Punk started getting big right before Money in the Bank, the discussion turned to how much of a "pop" he was getting, and how Triple H was getting "longer pops" and how the amount of times people were chanting Triple H instead of CM Punk was nominal. I think the only thing less exciting to talk about than buyrates and ratings is who got a pop. You know those "top 5 biggest pops, top 5 most heat" charts at the bottom of peoples' house show and live reports? Those things are the anus of pro wrestling. Don't write them.
Some people are there to be the Mary, and some people are there to be the Rhoda. Do not judge Rhoda by Mary's standards. Rhoda was awesome.
Best: Randy Orton Is The Bomb
Sometime in the crowd had an Angry Birds-themed Randy Orton poster. In Angry Birds terminology, I think Mark Henry should be the bomb. He's black and round and destroys everything. Orton should be the white bird that can drop really powerful eggs, but people don't really understand how he works. John Morrison is that green boomerang bird that f**ks up and flies backwards past the slingshot because your finger slipped.
But no, Randy Orton continues to be unexpectedly awesome every single week while people who don't really watch a lot of wrestling continue to call him things like "Randy BORE-ton" and say he sucks. Not a lot of weeks in 2011 have gone by without a good-to-great Randy Orton match, from the underrated Nexus story with Punk leading up to Wrestelmania to the series against Christian to last week's match with Ziggler and this week's with Slater. Orton's pro wrestling genes are finally starting to be dominant, and he's fixing a lot of the problems he had (slow move setups, monotone personality) to become the worthwhile main event focal point we wish Cena could shut up and just be. If you don't like watching him force people into the convoluted hanging DDT set-up, you might be doing it wrong.
Worst: I Was Right About John Cena
On page two of last week's Best and Worst of Super Smackdown, I tried to explain John Cena's descent into self-referential madness by comparing it to The Truman Show:
Cena had been wrestling his entire career against guys like Umaga and JBL, these wacky, over-the-top caricatures that threatened to destroy John Cena the Character, but never John Cena the Man. I think the decline started with Wade Barrett, funny enough. Cena got into a feud with a gang of guys from NXT who weren't supposed to have contracts, but they kept showing up on Raw and beating him up … and eventually Wade Barrett got some sort of weird executive power and arranged for Cena to be his f**king literal slave if he lost a match, then warped that into Cena being fired for disobeying him. Cena, being John Cena, went along with it. Eventually it became too much and Cena attacked, sacrificing his career for nobility … but as it turned out, Cena getting fired meant nothing, because being fired didn't mean he had to go away. He kept showing up, and by proxy of being around got his job back. Barrett was punished, banished even, and something in the back of Cena the Character's brain said "Huh. Maybe none of this is real." Like Truman noticing a light fixture falling from the sky.
Last night was the next scene. In the movie, Truman's false world starts becoming more and more obvious to him, culminating in a moment where he's freaking out and tells his wife to get in the car and look in the rear view mirror, predicting that she will see a lady on a red bike, followed by a man with flowers, and a Volkswagen beetle with a dented fender. Sure enough, because Truman's world operates under a strict script, a lady on a red bike rides by, followed by a man with flowers, followed by a Volkswagen beetle with a dented fender. Cena is caught in the middle of his freakout, so he walks out to the ring and says that the same thing keeps happening — he predicts that Ricardo Rodriguez will appear and do his ring introduction, then Alberto Del Rio will drive out in a rented luxury car and give him a reason why he won't fight him tonight. Then, because Cena's world operates under a script, these things happen. There's no variation in the script to suggest that Cena doesn't know it's coming, it happens exactly like he says.
Cena has figured out that his world is fictional, and he'll be sailing to Fiji by Wrestlemania.
Best: The Rudos Of Raw
How big of a wrestling dork am I when I think Del Rio saying the word "rudos" on Raw (without even Handy Manny'ing it and saying "bad guys" after it!) is awesome? I'm that big of a dork, because I do, and it was.

From Lay-Off to Luxury Lounge as Local Designer Participates in Gifting Suite Honoring the Emmys
A Los Angeles-based graphic designer's new line of artisan apparel has gotten a business boost via celebrity gifting celebrities and participation in the GBK 2012 Emmys Gift Lounge.
The new "graphic-luxe"
The invitation was a golden opportunity the former intercultural marketing professional would not have envisioned when she first harnessed her creative energies to become an independent entrepreneur after being laid-off early in the economic downturn in 2003. As demand for her design services grew, Roth expanded her graphic design company into a graphic pop culture t-shirt line that receives orders from customers around the world. At the GBK 2012 Primetime Emmys Gift Lounge, select members of the press will receive samples of Rotem Gear's most popular iconic tees.
In a departure from that quirky, pop culture fashion, however, the brand new Rotem Limited Edition artisan line envisions garments as canvases, and consists of an ever-changing limited inventory of scarves, cardigans, drape jackets and fashion tops. Currently focusing on local botanical designs, Roth uses her own photography to extract what she sees as the "essence" of the photograph's subject, whether a flower, branch, or fruit.
"We experiment with the inks we use to achieve different effects, resulting in a translucent, graceful, print that evokes Zen paintings in its elegant simplicity, " Roth says. With fabrics varying in type and in color from rich, saturated pima to neutrals, each type of garment responds differently to the inks in density and texture, producing different effects in the artwork.
The nod to Asian artistic influence is no accident. Roth's academic and professional background focused on Japanese language and culture. Artisan scarves and tops from the line have been gifted to celebrities such as Mariska Hargitay, Marcia Cross, Sarah Jessica Parker, Christina Hendricks and Ginnifer Goodwin.
"I'm fortunate to be able to enjoy creating for two different lines—one subtle and artistic, and one fun and tongue-in-cheek––
But for the very near future? "Right now, I'm excited by the honor to have my tees included among the extraordinary talent that The Artisan Group's gift bags will hold, and to have Rotem Gear represented at the GBK Emmys Gift Lounge."
If you'd like more information about this topic, or to schedule an interview with R. Jean Roth, email firstname.lastname@example.com or call 310.439.8334.
R. Jean Roth is a graphic designer and "creative alchemist," and the founder of Rotem Design Studio in Los Angeles. (http://www.rotemdesignstudio.com) and its two apparel lines, Rotem Gear (http://www.rotemgear.com) and Rotem Limited Edition (http://www.rotemle.com.)

James Aitcheson was born in Wiltshire in 1985 and studied History at Emmanuel College, Cambridge, where he developed a special interest in the Middle Ages. He is particularly interested in the Anglo-Saxon period and the Norman Conquest, a time of tremendous change that proved to be one of the biggest turning points in English history. His novels are published in the UK, the US, Germany and the Czech Republic.
Sworn Sword is his first novel, and the first in his Conquest series. Set three years after the Battle of Hastings, it tells the story of the great English rebellion as seen through the eyes of one of the invaders, an ambitious and oath-sworn knight named Tancred.
The sequel, The Splintered Kingdom, picks up Tancred's tale one year later as enemies both old and new combine forces to bring the Normans' fragile grip on England to the point of collapse. The third book in the series, Knights of the Hawk, sees Tancred and his allies venturing beyond English shores for the first time in pursuit of both honour and vengeance.
James's latest novel, The Harrowing, about five English refugees' struggle for survival during the Harrying of the North (1069-70), was published by Heron Books, an imprint of Quercus, in July 2016.
James is a member of the Royal Historical Society, the Society of Authors and the Historical Writers' Association.

Katy Perry was named UNICEF's new Goodwill Ambassador at the organisation's ninth annual Snowflake Ball in New York last night.
The Unconditionally singer will take on the role of engaging young people in the charity organisation's work, which aims to improve the lives of the some of the most vulnerable teenagers and children in the world.
This means actively encouraging adolescents to speak up about the difficult conditions they find themselves living in, including those whose communities are beset by violence or suffering from extreme poverty.
"I believe young people have the power to change their own lives, with our help," she said.
"I am honoured to join UNICEF as a Goodwill Ambassador, and committed to doing everything I can to help children and adolescents who come from such different backgrounds but want the same thing: a brighter future."
Perry began working for UNICEF earlier this year when she travelled to Madagascar in April.
Meanwhile, the star revealed the cover art for her duet with boyfriend John Mayer, Who You Love, yesterday.

Lakers lose in Dwight Howards debut
Instead of running out of the tunnel for pregame introductions, Kobe Bryant and the others hung back, leaving Dwight Howard alone on the court with 18,000 of his newest friends.
It was an awkward, but warm welcome for the Lakers center, who made his anticipated Lakers debut Sunday night. The loud ovation Howard received from the sold out Staples Center crowd was nice, but it didn't erase his pregame jitters.
Howard appeared nervous at the start, missing his first two opportunities to dunk. Yet, as the game progressed and he made his first dunk off an alley-oop pass from Pau Gasol on the Lakers second possession, Howard settled into his role as the Lakers' latest superstar center.
He finished with 19 points on 8-of-12 shooting from the floor and 3 of 8 free throws.
Sunday's exhibition gave Lakers fans -- at least those with the Time Warner Channel -- their first look at what the upcoming season promises. Kobe Bryant found Howard off the pick-and-roll for a dunk. Howard blocked shot after shot (he had four).
The fans saw Steve Nash whip passes down low and Metta World Peace find Gasol with outlet passes for baskets.
Unlike the previous five exhibition games, Coach Mike Brown used as close to the rotation he plans on using in the regular season. He started Howard, Bryant, World Peace, Nash and Gasol and brought them back in toward the end of the second quarter.
The starters were back on the floor in the closing minutes but they couldn't pull out a victory, losing 99-92, to the Sacramento Kings. The Lakers are 0-6 in preseason play.

It appears that the buffered member is quite buggy when retrieved from unfinite ogg stream.
Step to reproduce :
0 - Open the page and play the media
1 - Open the js console
2 - Click the "buffered" button, and see that the range reported is not correct (start greater than end, and values not correct).
Expected : normalized time range, and correct values (i.e. for that stream [0, total time buffered]).
This looks fine using a webm infinite stream (see : http://www.flumotion.com/demosite/webm/).
Looks like in nsOggReader::GetBuffered() in the live case we're setting startTime to aStartTime when startOffset==0, but ranges are supposed to be normalized to be [0...duration] (until we implement HTMLMediaElement.initialTime that is).
Best to not subtract aStartTime from startTime inside the loop (when we call ns*State::Time()) and subtract aStartTime from startTime when we call aBuffered->Add(...) at the end, like we do for endTime. Better change the assertions to assert startTime>=aStartTime as well.

We are verifying bugs that have target milestone: mozilla 7, so this bug enters that category. If the milestone is mozilla 7, then I have to make sure that the bug is fixed in Firefox 7.
Is the milestone set wrong in this case?
