With a dedication to undergraduate research, the University of St. Thomas will celebrate the 20th anniversary of the Research Symposium on April 10-12, 2014. During the Symposium, undergraduates and graduates from all disciplines can present oral and poster presentations about their research to their peers, faculty, staff and professionals in their field.
Dr. William Maury Harris, who was appointed director of student research in August and has served as chair of the Committee on Student Research for five years, said the symposium is one of the signature programs of the University.
"It has been something UST has recognized for 20 years now," Harris said. "It allows students to practice the kind of things they'll do in grad school or the workplace."
The theme of this year's symposium will be active learning, based on a quotation from Benjamin Franklin: "Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn."
Students have a variety of research opportunities at St. Thomas, ranging from lab coursework and independent study with a faculty mentor, to a major thesis or a group research project through the Honors Program.
According to the 2013 National Survey of Student Engagement, more UST students participated in undergraduate research compared to peer and aspirant institutions. Of the freshmen and seniors surveyed, 25 percent had participated in undergraduate research, compared with 18 percent of students at other selected private universities.
Harris said that while other schools may have undergraduate research programs, the chance of the average student participating at St. Thomas is much higher because of the low faculty-to-student ratio.
Freshmen through seniors and graduate students may present posters or oral presentations. And it's not just the sciences such as biology, chemistry and environmental science that participate. Departments active in research also include humanities and social sciences like history, political science, psychology, English and international studies, as well as education and business.
Students often have opportunities to present their research at conferences like Southwestern Psychological Association Annual Meeting, Southwest International Studies Association and the American Chemical Society.
As director of student research, Harris said his role is to help attract students and help raise funds to support student research for proposals. He also works with departments to institute more student research opportunities and show faculty how they can use student research for promotion and tenure.
Harris said he chose Franklin's quotation for the theme because hands-on learning was how he learned best as an undergrad, and writing a bachelor's thesis prepared him for graduate school.
"You become an owner of some of that knowledge, whereas, if someone throws that information at you, you don't own it; it's not yours," Harris said. "With hard-earned knowledge, you know and trust the information. You then become passionate about it."

By Josh James in Kuala Lumpur
Less than two hours after touching down at Kuala Lumpur International Airport, Arsène Wenger, Robin van Persie and Bacary Sagna were given a small taste of what they can expect over the next week, when they gave a press conference to the assembled hordes at the team hotel.
More than 200 journalists, cameramen and photographers filled the Ballroom Suite at The Saujana Hotel - situated on the outskirts of KL - as the fans enthusiastically made their presence known outside. The locals, it's fair to say, are in a state of excitement (more on that later in the week).
And the players are excited too. It's a world away from the pre-season tours they've been used to over the past ten years, in a remote outpost in the Austrian mountains, and the squad look invigorated by the change of scenery. Well as invigorated as you can be after a 13-hour flight.
Malaysia is seven hours ahead of London, so the 2pm press conference was at 7am according to the players' body clocks. But there's no time to rest - the full-on tour schedule means the players will be working just as hard away from the training pitches as on them.
The press conference was held jointly with the coach of the Malaysia National Team, Dato Rajagopal, who is a self-confessed Man United fan by the way, so perhaps Wednesday's friendly fixture may have an edge to it after all.
After the press conference all of the 23-strong playing squad signed autographs for an hour for 200 fans (who ran through an impressive repertoire of Emirates Stadium anthems while waiting in the lobby), before it was time for a snack, and then, finally, the chance to kick a ball.
A short coach journey away from the hotel lies the 60,000 capacity Shah Alam Stadium, where the players took part in a closed training session, as minds were re-focused on the serious stuff of preparing for 2011/12. And with the temperature in excess of 30 degrees C, it will be anything but easy going as the squad get back into the swing of things after the summer break.
So Arsenal's first tour to Asia since 1999 has kicked off. Tomorrow night the team will train in front of thousands of local fans in the national stadium as the dual aim of making friends across the world and gearing up for the new season is ramped up a notch.Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

My GSD Titan
3 Attachment(s)
So I just got a German Shepherd that is supposedly purebred. I'm waiting on papers from his previous owner. And I was just wondering, if he isn't papered, but still purebred, would it be possible to breed him? And does he look pure to you guys? I still need to take pictures of him stacked. But those are to come. Thank you!

From Tay and Titan
To me he looks like a high mix with something "bully" - his head is very square - although it could just be that he doesn't meet the standard.
As for breeding, yep you could breed him. But the question is more, SHOULD you breed him?
There are many, MANY threads on here about the reasons you should and shouldn't breed your dog.
Some questions to ask yourself:
What does my dog have to contribute the breed as a whole?
Do I have my dogs pedigree to be able to match his lines with a female, giving me the best chance of producing the best puppies possible?
Has my dog been health tested? OFA'd? Pennhip?
Has my dogs temperament been tested by an unbiased person, who has no stake in my dog?
Breeding to help this breed continue to be the MOST versatile breed ever, needs to be done with the utmost care and thought, and it is not something to just jump into. I, as well as everyone else on this forum LOVE this breed, and I tend to take it personal when someone sets out to destroy the breed I am fighting to preserve (not saying you specifically, but in general).
Please put some thought into it and focus on just enjoying your new boy, he is very handsome!
His head is actually very sleek. His fur makes it look boxed. I need to get pictures of him in better lighting. And he hasn't gotten a bath since he was born, according to his previous owner. And I actually just got the AKC papers to fill out because his mother and father were both purebred. Kalli, his previous owner, was able to get a hold of his mother's owner and set everything up. My boy is pure. (: And as for the breeding, I want to do it purely for the sake of having a very versatile bloodline. From working to household. His temperament is amazing, and I've already had a couple temp tests done on him. His only issue is jumping because his first 6 months were on a farm with no boundaries or proper training, with his father.

My first dog's name was Titan. He was a great guy! He was a super dog but still I did not see a reason to breed more GSDs with my pet, jus' sayin'. Love your dog! He can be a great companion.
There's a lot more planning and preparation that goes into breeding the right way.
Someone has a chart and will likely post it here; most of us, like yourself, have pet quality dogs.
These dogs should not be bred, but enjoyed for the pets they are :)
Well not that I don't appreciate your guys' input, but I've already made up my mind and im determined to follow through with my decisions. It's one of the reasons I graduated HS at 16.

Utah doesn't have enough GSDs in shelters now?
Pet Search Results: Adoptable German Shepherd Dog Dog Pets in Kearns, UT: Petfinder
I see here some 7k + dogs sitting and waiting for homes now.
Your dog seems like a nice dog but he's not breeding quality.
You're right, it's a free country.
But for the love of German Shepherds you need to rethink your plan.
Do you know what lines he is from? Do you happen to have a pedigree that you are willing to share with the board? Is he health tested? I, personally, don't think that breeding him is a fantastic idea, but if you have already made up your mind, could you share with me some of your plans/ideas? I am no expert, or a breeder, but some of the more experienced members may be able to give you some valuable advice, or even convince you that breeding may not be the best idea.
He is a very handsome boy, and good luck with whichever path you decide to take! :)
Alot goes on in order to breed. Sometimes the benefits don't out weigh the negatives. Just because someone has a nice well mannered dog doesn't mean it should be bred. At the minimum hips/elbows should be xrayed and certified by OFA so you know for sure that you are not passing along hip displaysia. Both the male and female dogs should be tested prior to a breeding to make sure all health is in order as many bitches or males can pass many nasty things during a breeding. Most litters are very large, take alot of out the female, and are alot of work.
Do the research...become educated...find a local breeder to see if you can help out while learning what goes into breeding, caring etc for stud dogs and bitches. Breeding coss alot of money before, during and after and generally unless you have high quality, titled, certified, health checked and known breeding lines that have proven themselves its not worth the money YOU spend to breed as YOU won't make the money back on the pups or the studding. We just had a litter and didn't makeanywhere near the money back that we spent on the whole process. Although the mating made beautiful and healthy puppies we decided not to do another breeding.
If you decide to breed hopefully you will follow all of the necessities, vet/health standards as not to produce a low quailty pup that may have health defects due to lack of knowledge on the breeding.
I also wanted to add that many people won't let an unapproved stud dog breed to their female unless its a back yard breeder who doesn't care. Someone with a titled, certified breeding bitch isn't going to put their bitch in harms way for someones "pet quality" stud dog just because they want to breed him. Alot of full time professional breeders are extremely picky when it ocmes to matching the perfect stud to the perfect bitch in order to create a better quality pup. If you are really interested in studding your dog do what needs to be done health wise, certification wise, title wise, and then ask a breeder for advice on your stud if he is worthy to breed to a begginer bitch to see what he produces. Our male/female combo made great pups and we have had offers to breed back to either of them with a diff stud/bitch but we opted to spay of female and will be altering our male next yr.
It's a free country and you can breed if you want to, but just consider that you will not have many contacts within the breed if breeding a mixed dog. If you want to be taken seriously as a German Shepherd breeder and attract good buyers/owners you will need to become educated and accept the help and experience of others. I'm sure you didn't graduate at 16 *just* because you *decided* to, no a lot of work goes into that. Approach dog breeding the same way. It's only fair for your dog.

My Crush of the Week is…Zac Efron!
Every week, our love editor Devin chats about her hot-guy celeb crushes. This week, she's got a thing for this dreamy actor!
New things I'm into when it comes to guys: guitar players and Irish accents. Classic things I'm into when it comes to guys: Zac Efron and Zac Efron. I had a serious crush on him back when he and baby Vanessa Hudgens sang their hearts out in High School Musical (also, um, does anyone remember this gem of a Zac scene from the second movie?!). And this weekend, if you haven't heard, the MTV Movie Awards are happening, and Zac is presenting! We've actually been seeing a lot of him lately—Just Jared refers to it as "The Gun Show,"—as his "bulging biceps" (LOL) have been spotted around L.A. recently while Zac films his new movie, Townies, about a frat boy who wreaks havoc on his neighbor's personal life. But the poor guy can't catch a break—every time he steps onto the street, all anyone wants to do is snap a shot of his hot bod! (Can you blame them? Still…that would get annoying after a while.) Hopefully this movie will prove that he has LOL-worthy acting chops, too! Either way, I can't wait to watch this cutie on stage this weekend (as well as Rebel Wilson—she's going to kick butt hosting!).
Now you go! Who are you most excited to see at the MTV Movie Awards this weekend? (Catch them on Sunday at 9/8c!) Will your celebrity crush be there? Tell me in the comments or tweet me @devin_tomb!

Hi all,
I have been looking around to see which course would suit my needs the best and I "think" I may have found one or two, I just need some advice on a few questions.
After thinking long and hard about my career, I have come to the conclusion that I do want to teach English abroad (I currently live in the UK) and make this a permanent thing.
I have read pretty much all of the forum and couldn't find any answers to a few questions I have, which are....
1) Is it a good idea to travel abroad to obtain my TEFL certification?
The more I look into this option, the better it sounds because I will get the benefit of meeting new friends, interacting with a "live" class and immersing myself in another culture.
I came across http://www.gvi.co.uk/projects/Asia/Thai ... iland/home and to be honest, it looks ideal for my needs.
Does anyone have any experience with this company or know any horror stories? I am a little hesitant to go and spend a significant amount of money on something that could very well turn out to be a complete shambles.
2) Would it be better to gain my TEFL in the country I wish to teach?
I would love to teach in Asia or U.A.E, but I do not have a degree of any kind, so after more research on this forum and online, Latin America is looking more promising.
With that said, I would love to teach anywhere in the world.
I think I just need guidance on "where do I go from here" per se. Teaching abroad is certainly something I want to do, absolutely no doubt in my mind.
I also have the luxury of being able to "up and leave", because I do not have any commitments in the UK and from reading various posts, some schools would like potential teachers to start immediately.
Thank you in advance.

Per Mertesacker believes Arsenal could be in their full rhythm just in time to face Bayern Munich in the Champions League.
Arsène Wenger's side were paired with the German giants during Thursday's draw. It is a tough assignment given Bayern breezed through Group F and are nine points clear at the top of the Bundesliga.
However the games are still two months away and Bayern will be on a winter break for some of that time. Mertesacker hopes his side can seize the opportunity.
"We will face a good team in Germany," said the former Werder Bremen defender. "They are top of their League and went through to the knockout stage in a phenomenal way.
"They only conceded seven goals in the first half of the season. [But] they have a little break now and can rest a bit.
"Maybe it's a good opportunity for us to face them in February because we will be in our rhythm. We will hopefully go through the Christmas period in a strong way. We can do that.
"We have a lot of potential and Bayern know they will face an Arsenal squad that will be strong in February.
"We have to be consistent until then. We have to show that it's not only our potential which makes us a good side. We have to get good results until the next Champions League game. It's a long period for us and the German teams have a little break and a little rest. We will see what happens in February. But we hope we can get into a good rhythm to face them."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

There's no secret that Rex Ryan is Ed Reed's biggest fan and now the long-time Baltimore Raven safety is reuniting with his former defensive coordinator now head coach in New York.
After reaching the pinnacle of the football world with the Ravens last year, Reed signed with the Houston Texans this offseason, but the team collapsed and his playing time diminished and the veteran safety found himself on the open market this week.
Ryan was quick to snatch up Reed, a player he referred to as "The greatest NFL safety of all-time," and the Jets' coach is hoping one of the game's top playmakers can impart knowledge onto a young and unproven secondary that has struggled to develop consistency this season.
While Reed's Pro Bowl days may be in the rearview, his ball hawking skills and understanding of the game proved invaluable for a Jets' squad looking to contend for the postseason this year.
It's unclear whether Reed will start alongside former Baltimore teammate Dawan Landry or fall in behind incumbent starter Antonio Allen on the depth chart, but his intangibles and leadership were evidently too good for the Jets to pass up.

Dos and Don'ts
Social Etiquette: Business and personal interactions in Los Angeles are usually marked by a cheerful, breezy courtesy and lack of confrontation.
Dress: "California casual is about looking trendy. This doesn't mean a T-shirt and jeans or shorts and flip-flops; dressing to go out or eat out in L.A. is all about dressing up your jeans with great accessories, like a hip handbag or shoes. The look may be 'casual,' but there's nothing easy, or inexpensive about it."—Mari Florence, publisher, Hungry? Los Angeles. Because of the temperate weather and casual vibe, most anything goes, fashion- (and modesty-) wise: You'll see short skirts, stiletto heels, bare dresses, even bikini tops.
Road Etiquette: Because no one really gets anywhere without a car in Los Angeles, road manners are essential. Be as polite on the road as you would in person: Do not rely excessively on your horn, cut off other cars, tailgate, or—for your own protection—express road rage.
Parking Etiquette: Don't steal parking spots. If you use valet parking (usually $5 and up), remember to tip the valet ($1 to $2), unless there is a "no tip" rule in effect.
Special Freeway/Road Features: California streets often have a middle lane denoted by a broken yellow line: Move into this lane before making left-hand turns. In heavy traffic, freeway meters are in effect at some on-ramps; stop and wait for a green light before proceeding. The carpool lane is the left-most lane of the freeway; enter it only if you have one or more passengers (some lanes require two or more), or risk hefty fines.
Celebrities: Celebrity-spotting is very much alive and well in L.A. Angelenos freely use the words "somebody" and "nobody" to denote notables versus non-notables. If you see a crowd of gawkers, media, or both, it's a good bet "somebody" is there.
Phrase Book
Bueno: Good, in Spanish
Hella: Extra, extra good, as in "that's hella cool"
The "405": Freeways are referred to by number, not "highway" or "route"
California stop: A lazy driver's rolling pause at a red light or stop sign
Where do you live?: The thinly disguised screener for the start of every new relationship
Who do you know?: Badly disguised notion that who you know defines who you are—or at least whether you can help the person you're talking to in some way
What do you really do?: Playful belief that every server, salesperson, or fill-in-the-blank serviceperson is really an aspiring actor, screenwriter, filmmaker, or musician
L.A. breakup: The practice of drifting apart, rather than confronting a relationship-ending issue between friends or lovers
"Eastside" versus "Westside": Opposing halves of the city. Dividing line is thought to be La Cienega Boulevard, or Fairfax or La Brea Avenues
WeHo: West Hollywood
NoHo: North Hollywood
SanMo: Santa Monica
South Bay: Southlying beach communities: Manhattan Beach, Hermosa Beach, Redondo Beach
The Valley: San Fernando Valley

Fox News Stokes Fears That CA's TRUST Act Will Free Violent Criminals
Blog ››› ››› SOLANGE UWIMANA
Fox News misrepresented the TRUST Act, a California immigration bill that would limit law enforcement's ability to detain undocumented immigrants for deportation, claiming the legislation will allow criminals to go free. In fact, the bill is aimed at shielding undocumented victims and witnesses to crimes, as well as those who have committed only minor offenses, from deportation. It also seeks to stop criminalizing undocumented immigrants for the sole civil offense of being in the country illegally.
The bill, formally known as Assembly Bill 4, was passed by the California state legislature on September 10. Gov. Jerry Brown has until October 17 to sign it into law. The bill states:
This bill would prohibit a law enforcement official, as defined, from detaining an individual on the basis of a United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement hold after that individual becomes eligible for release from custody, unless, at the time that the individual becomes eligible for release from custody, certain conditions are met, including, among other things, that the individual has been convicted of specified crimes.
The bill lists some of the crimes that would prompt law enforcement to detain undocumented immigrants for the 48-hour immigration hold, including violent and serious felonies such as rape, assault, robbery, and selling drugs.
The bill also argues that Secure Communities (S-Comm) -- the controversial and widely criticized program under which law enforcement can detain undocumented immigrants for deportation -- "and immigration detainers harm community policing efforts because immigrant residents who are victims of or witnesses to crime, including domestic violence, are less likely to report crime or cooperate with law enforcement when any contact with law enforcement could result in deportation." The text continues:
The program can result in a person being held and transferred into immigration detention without regard to whether the arrest is the result of a mistake, or merely a routine practice of questioning individuals involved in a dispute without pressing charges. Victims or witnesses to crimes may otherwise have recourse to lawful status (such as U-visas or T-visas) that detention resulting from the Secure Communities program obstructs.
In an article on the S-Comm program, California's KPBS reported that in the city of Escondido, "collaboration between the city's police and federal immigration activists has caused tension in the city's Latino communities for years." The article continued:
Agents have been present at the police department's driver's license and sobriety checkpoints, and in the city's jails.
Activists say this kind collaboration diminishes public safety because immigrants are less likely to trust police or report crime if they fear that interacting with police could get them deported.
But in a segment on the TRUST Act for Fox News' Special Report, correspondent William La Jeunesse suggested the bill would allow violent criminals to go free and avoid deportation if they are in the country illegally. His report included Marin County Sheriff Robert Doyle saying, "If you or I were victimized by someone stealing our identity, or selling drugs in our community, or burglarizing our homes or embezzling our money, that that's OK. That's a minor crime."
La Jeunesse also wrote a FoxNews.com article that similarly misrepresented the bill. La Jeunesse quoted one critic of the bill claiming that the bill is unconstitutional and that there will be "a high likelihood of individuals, who pose a significant public safety risk who are released into the community for some length of time without no guarantee ICE can put on a detainer at the time of a probable cause hearing."
In fact, the bill is very clear that undocumented immigrants who commit serious and violent offenses -- those listed under the California Penal Code Section 1192.7 (c) and Section 667.5 (c) -- will not be exempt from deportation. Contrary to Sheriff Doyle's claims, those do include selling drugs, burglary, and fraud. According to the Immigration Policy Center, however, "aggravated felonies" can sometimes encompass "more than thirty types of offenses, including simple battery, theft, filing a false tax return, and failing to appear in court."
As the Los Angeles Times noted in an editorial, the bill "would prohibit police from detaining those arrested for minor offenses -- such as disturbing the peace, street vending or traffic violations -- solely for immigration purposes." The Times added: "That's an important change that has earned the support of local police chiefs and sheriffs who worry that Secure Communities is forcing police to act as immigration agents."
The Times went on to call for Gov. Brown to sign the bill, writing:
Initially billed as a powerful tool that allowed federal officials to target immigrants convicted of serious crimes, Secure Communities requires state and local police to provide the fingerprints of anyone arrested to federal officials. Those fingerprints are then checked against criminal and immigration databases. That sounds fine in theory. In practice, however, the program has failed to distinguish between violent felons and street vendors. Since the program began, thousands of noncriminals have been deported, and more than 3,000 U.S. citizens have been detained, sometimes for weeks or months, on immigration holds known as detainers.
Indeed, according to data from Homeland Security's Immigration and Customs Enforcement, only 29 percent of those deported between October 2008 through May 2013 were level 1 offenders -- the most serious of crimes. The rest of the deportees were split between those convicted of misdemeanors (49 percent) and those who had committed no crime (22 percent). In California, 23 percent of those deported since the program's implementation in May 2009, more than 23,000 immigrants, had not been convicted of a crime.
After analyzing new data for S-Comm deportations in California, the California Immigrant Policy Center found that 12 percent of the undocumented immigrants deported in January had no criminal conviction.
A number of law enforcement officials, including the sheriffs of Los Angeles and San Diego Counties, and state representatives like House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi, support the TRUST Act. Attorney General Kamala Harris has also criticized the S-Comm program.
On June 25, Connecticut approved its own version of the TRUST Act. Similarly, counties in Chicago and San Jose, California, a parish in New Orleans, and the city of Newark in New Jersey have all refused to honor ICE immigration holds.

I find it interesting that Jeb will not endorse anyone...a big blow to Mitt.
A parliament-type of government, with the Senate and the House picking a Prime Minister. Would solve the problem.
Mitt has the support of the republican establishment. But he does not have the support of the republican voter. That is a problem.
It just upsets me the way the media bias's this and that, not just politics. What ever happened to objective news/media?My brother in law rode on a flight one time with Newt when he was speaker and he was most impressed with how Newt treated him as an equal, remembered his name, and now we can also look to one of the most recent speakers who had her own entourage and required a whole flipping plane for herself....... He is very right wing and I like that a lot in him but I also fear that many on the line folks will not vote for him, will either not vote or go for a third party candidate. In either event, that leaves the wrong person winning and another 4 years of this bull puckey administration. If I thought he could beat Obummer, I would be even more for him. I hate Romney, but I think he can beat the current idiot in charge because he will pull votes from the left that Newt will never, ever see. Of the utmost importance is to get this traitor out of office.

« more RISD stories
After carefully rethinking RISD's graduate program in Interior Architecture, Department Head Liliane Wong and Graduate Program Director Markus Berger determined that 2011 is the perfect time to introduce two new degree programs: a 1+-year Master of Arts (MA) in Interior Architecture and a 2+-year Master of Design (MDes) in Interior Studies. Both new programs emphasize the department's longstanding commitment to adaptive reuse.
"We believe that the field of adaptive reuse is rich and varied," Wong says. "Its value lies not only in reimagining existing structures but also in recycling materials, making transformative interventions, preserving memory, cultural phenomena, community – all of which results in densely woven narratives about the built environment with adaptive reuse as the connecting thread."
The short, but intense MA program is for students who have earned a BArch or its equivalent from another country. It requires a summer program in Copenhagen at the Danish Institute for Study Abroad, plus one year of study on campus. MA graduates leave RISD prepared to practice architecture with a full and nuanced understanding of adaptive reuse and the concerns of professionals in the building industry and allied fields.
The MDes program – for students who have not earned first professional degrees in architecture – focuses on the alteration of existing structures through interior interventions and adaptive reuse. Students start with the department's intense, design-based summer program, followed by two years of study. They graduate prepared to address issues of interior architecture and adaptive reuse as design professionals, but not as licensed architects.
The department is accepting applications to both new programs through January 21, 2011, for enrollment in fall 2011.

Dennis Bergkamp scores his first Arsenal goals 23 September 1995
When he joined Arsenal in the summer of 1995, Dennis Bergkamp was probably the most exciting signing in the Club's history.
Here was one of world football's luminaries - an international star - and he was wearing the famous red and white. The anticipation among Arsenal's fans was palpable.
Bergkamp's class was obvious but, for many in the media, the Dutchman's failure to find the net in his first six appearances was enough to brandish him a 'flop'.
That seemed ridiculous then and even more so now when one considers what Bergkamp has brought to Arsenal. Even so, the pressure was mounting as Dennis lined up against Southampton on September 23, 1995.
Ninety minutes later, any doubts were dispelled. Bergkamp was untouchable that day and capped a man-of-the-match display with two superbly-taken goals.
After 17 minutes, Bergkamp volleyed Glenn Helder's left-wing cross into the bottom corner. He wheeled away to celebrate and puffed out his cheeks in relief after breaking his Arsenal duck.
Tony Adams doubled the Gunners' lead but Gordon Watson and Ken Monkou levelled before half-time. Arsenal needed something special to get their noses back in front and their Dutch striker provided it with 22 minutes remaining.
Bergkamp collected the ball just inside Southampton's half and advanced menacingly. He jinked away from two challenges and, having found a yard of space, struck a venomous shot in off the post from 25 yards. Simply brilliant.
Ian Wright secured the points five minutes later but the day belonged to Bergkamp. His two strikes against the Saints kicked off a run of six goals in seven games and gave Arsenal fans a taste of things to come from the Dutch master.

Crepe Myrtle Pruning Step-by-Step
What concerns people most in the country right now? Losing their jobs? Losing their retirements? Nope. It's how to properly prune their crepe myrtles Here's a step-by-step guide showing how the Grumps prunes his.
Why do you need my advice? Because a lot of you take guidance from your ignorant neighbors neighbors, who prune their crepe myrtles to look like this.
This is what I call "crepe murder." I didn't invent the term. I think it was coined by Byers Nursery, a big wholesale grower of crepe myrtles in Huntsville, Alabama. I just did what we Americans have always done so well — pass off other's good ideas as your own.
Crepe murder is bad for several reasons.
1. It turns beautiful trees into ugly stumps.
2. It prevents the formation of pretty, mottled bark on maturing trunks.
3. A forest of skinny, whip-like shoots sprouts from the end of each ugly stump. These whips are too weak to hold up the flowers, so the branches often bend to the ground, like a drunk who's about to lose his lunch.
Another reason people butcher crepe myrtles is because they say their plants get too big. All that this means is that these cretins chose the wrong plant for the wrong spot. Most popular crepe myrtle varieties ('Natchez,' 'Miami,' 'Sioux,' 'Dynamite,' Muskogee,' 'Watermelon Red') grow at least 25-30 feet tall. So plant them out in the yard — not in front of your bay windows. Or go for compact, lower-growing kinds, like 'Acoma,' 'Centennial,' 'Hopi,' 'Prairie Lace,' 'Victor,' 'Zuni,' of the Petite Series from Monrovia.
The crepe myrtle you see above is deep-pink 'Miami.' I planted it in my front yard from a 3-gallon pot 15 years ago. I never pruned it much, because I strung it with tiny Xmas lights that I never took down. Leaving them on the tree reduced my Xmas decorating each year to 10 seconds. All I had to do was plug in the lights before Xmas and unplug them after. You could learn from this.
However, not being able to prune without cutting the light cords meant my crepe myrtle grew too dense and spread too wide. So last week, I took off the lights. Then, aided by my lovely unseen wife who agreed to take pictures, I finally pruned it to show you how it's done and how a mature crepe myrtle is supposed to look. Murderers, take note!
Here is the crepe myrtle before I started. It doesn't look too bad, but needs thinning. The tool leaning up against it is my trusty pole pruner. I like it because you can extend the pole to cut branches more than 15 feet from the ground.
Crepe Myrtle — Your Questions Answered
Before you prune anything, it's a good idea to know what you're trying to accomplish. After all, you can always go back and cut more. You can't go back and cut less. My objective was to maintain well-spaced, main trunks with handsome bark and to thin out out the center to permit easy penetration of sunlight and air. I always say if a bird can easily fly through the center of your crepe myrtle, the branches are spaced about right. If a bird can easily fly through the center of your house, you're probably missing some windows.
Pruning Tools
To properly prune a mature crepe myrtle, you need 3 tools.
1. Hand pruners to clip twigs and branches less than 1/2-inch thick.
2. Loppers to cut branches 1/2-inch to 1-1/2 inches thick
3. Pole pruners or a pruning saw to cut branches more than 1-1/2 inches thick.
When to Cut
Late winter (right now) is the best time to prune a crepe myrtle, because it's leafless and you can easily see all of the branches. It also blooms on new growth, so pruning now won't reduce blooming. In fact, it may increase it.
What to Cut
Remove branches in the following order.
1. Suckers coming up from the base.
2. All side branches growing from the main trunks up to a height of at least 4 feet.
3. All higher branches growing inward towards the center of the tree.
4. All crossing, rubbing, and dead branches.
5. Branches growing at awkward angles that detract from the tree's appearance.
Always cut back to a larger branch of the trunk. Don't leave stubs. Removing seedheads on the end of branches is optional. Leaving them doesn't reduce blooming. I leave mine.
The Finished Product
Below is the result of this year's pruning. Isn't it purty? The crepe myrtle is still a little denser than I would like, but I can prune it again next winter. Every year, the job gets easier.

If your appetite for all things crepe myrtle still isn't sated, you can read more brilliant commentary from the Grump about crepe myrtle care.

People are going to buy what they want to buy. When you limit that, you're alienating your consumers. OK, I might not have enough to buy Uncharted 1 new, but I bought it used, loved it so much I'm going to buy Uncharted 2 on release brand new. You're banking on future profits and business. That's why they make consoles at a loss.
Do you think it's fair that I buy Madden Brand new on release, decide to sell it but according you guy if I want to buy it back I need to buy it again brand new? $#@! outta here. I supported you the first go around and you have my money. Why should I have to buy it again from at $39.99-59.99 when I can get it for $19.99 off Ebay, cracklist or anything else?
Don't let the Corporations have us by the nuts. They're already 80% there. And its a damn shame.
$Greatness$ Awaits

Another reason being that you can't let your family or friends borrow games to potentially generate said hype. If you restrict gamers with online passes and deny that nice chain of potential consumer base, guess what's going to happen?: They'll skip the next game due to lack of interest, its not fun having such a restriction placed on you.
Gamers shouldn't be so passive about potential moves like these. This may very well be a patent that might not see the light of day but since they adopted Online Passes then I wouldn't be surprised if this is considered seriously in the future.

When there wasn't, Gamestop, we just went to Walmart to get our games new. I don't care if you ban used games or not. You can say your done, but as long as Sony brings the game, I'll be a customer. Also, if you want used games then you can buy them from online retailers like Amazon and Ebay. Used games will never be totally out of the picture but getting rid of big retailers, like gamestop, is probably their plan.This is no big deal imo.As for hurting Sony, I doubt it. The games will bring the customers and Sony will have them.

I don't see this as a negative thing anymore. Our generation is passing by, and how many times do we end up going to friends' house to play videogames while you own the game? It's kind of the other way for me. They come to play the games, not me bringing it. If this is the first few steps for Sony to start digital downloads. Go ahead.

Its bad for those who share games and as you said. We don't buy all games as brand new unless its a good title and most have. I think this is a bad move and not many people will buy Sonys product.
Ohh and also I have forgot to mention. No one will be able to sell the game after and which means you have lost your money and can't make any money on the game if it can't be played on any second console.

That's always been a privilege granted to you by marketers, not a right...
Having said that, tho, I do agree that, if Sony were the only company to implement this on their console, it would definitely hurt them, beyond the money they aren't receiving from the sale of new games...
I don't think it'll be the death of gaming tho; consumers will just adapt...
They've already taken away "used" online gaming, and how much has that hurt the industry?...yet prior to, every Tom, Dick, and Harry would preach relentlessly about how online passes would ruin sales...

"used games = death of gaming" - a phrase used to 'emphasize' the seriousness of the used game market. in no way intended to be taken as a literal matter of fact.
used games are in fact bad for the industry. it stunts cash flow for developers.
he lives in the US, there was no way for me to "lend" him my game. i got him hyped up, he went and bought it.
he is more pumped for Mirrors Edge 2 than i am, in fact, he is the one hyping me now. every piece of info released he reads and passes on to me.
people seem to forget that they have a mouth capable of forming words to convey a feeling or emotion for something. if you thought it was good and someone else might enjoy it; tell them. Simple as that.
i love how people forget that businesses also have rights.
whilst i am in no way beguiled or ensnared by Businesses practices, i make it a point to not treat the guys providing me a service like complete and utter trash... they have a right to protect their IP's.
Greed? what would you call what you're trying to do then? being stingy? games cost what they cost for a reason. the number (excluding COD) isn't pulled out of the ether with the sole purpose of spiting you. it costs as much as it does because it costs the company just as much.
[another disclaimer as is needed] the goal of any business is to turn a profit, this allows the company to grow. i have taken some liberties with the concept to avoid an essay[/disclaimer]
if you would like my opinion (which i haven't yet stated) it would go like this: i'd prefer a less invasive approach to stemming used games. this patent, however involved, is a bit crude when taken on face value. suffice to say. several contingencies would need to be in place for some of the views brought up by members here
as a point of debate. Why does Sony achieving greater revenue offend you guys so? in the end that money is put back into providing us a better service and product (swinging loose with that last one).

Retailers too would be less keen on supporting a product range which would erode their revenue generating capability.
The more appropriate approach would be to incentivise new purchases, rather than disincentive new purchases.

I know I've said this at least a dozen times but... you all kinda put this on yourselves. Every time you cheered for a bad move made by Sony, you let them know that you're A-okay with them controlling YOUR experiences on YOUR devices. You knew that it would eventually hit on a touchy subject.
Anyway. I rarely ever buy used games. However... I do tend to wait until a time I find the price is right for said games. It's why I haven't bought games like Saint's Row: The Third and various other titles I've been wanting to check out; of which, some are first party. You see, I'm a patient consumer. I wait until corporations have what I want at the price I'm willing to shell out. This also keeps me from impulse buying things I may later find not worth the money spent.
01-04-2013 #67
Pachter said that the reaction to this patent has been overblown and I totally agree. If we pasted all the patents together from the last year, we would have a very $#@!ed up console haha.

but as you've just said. a lot of power lies with the retailer.
and as it stands, its quite the one sided convenience for them.
not splitting profits from the used game market. its only logical that the companies in charge move to stem this. not every developer can be as successful as infinity ward or Treyarch. who, if i might add, have an almost perfect position within the market.
people will so easily point the blame at Sony yet turn the blind eye to the stores who dictate the market (a crude description i know). Retailers currently set the price for the new PS3 if im not mistaken.

Of course they can't play online due to online passes but that's something different

Here is why: The common gamer will want to try a game that is hardly marketed so they don't want to risk heavy investment. What's the alternative?: Rental or purchase it used(You can get them from fifty percent off or more from online retailers). They try it out and depending on their experience, they might purchase the next game or heck, even become fans of the franchise. The same scenario works for lending your friends a game(s).
Now put restriction on your games and continue your Online Pass nonsense. The common consumer won't be able to lend their games to their buddies or family. They can't buy used either so what will they do?: Stick with what's well known for the sake of their wallets while the underdogs go out of business. Word of mouth doesn't always work and you can't seriously replicate that event you had with your friend with everyone.
The amount of apathy publishers and gamers alike are showing in this industry is concerning, like very. I'm quite surprised that they don't see how counter-productive this really is. Big publishers could come out okay but everyone else will just disintegrate.

but what you've just said wasn't factual either...
you've just provided a theory.
the patent, i feel, is not being read properly by users who are using arguments clearly outlined in the patent.
so that the game disk can be reproduced in a mode which is predetermined for those bought and sold in the second-hand market.
i'll assume this one refers to going and playing online
lso, where the connection to the Internet is an absolute requirement, user's convenience may be significantly reduced.
long story short. every argument thus far for demo's and the like are unjustified. the disc will still work, the only thing you should worry about is to what capacity.
this isn't aimed at you (the consumer) this is aimed at the retailers somewhat bullish approach other peoples IP's.
why you would think otherwise is beyond me...
01-04-2013 #74
I don't buy many used games, but I believe this is a bad idea. I would prefer they focus more on digital downloads next generation rather than trying to kill used games and if they make digital downloads worth it, like Steam does, then I think people would cease to care about used games.

A company looks to protect its revenue stream - why on earth do people think that's unreasonable? Would you prefer their profits take a whack, shareholders stop investing, and the company start divesting in the gaming business because it no longer shows a year on year growth and has a negative contribution to their EPS ratio?
You simply can't have it all ways. "Hey big corp, we want new IP, new games, pushing the boundaries of innovation and creativity, BUT, we might not want to remunerate you for it. Hey ho"
Here's the fact of life - well business actually - companies don't care about you personally. They care about making money. They are only in it for that reason. Every decision they take is either directly, or indirectly linked to satisfying that simple rule. You may not like that, you may think companies are ebil because of it, but it's a simple fact. If they weren't like that then they would all end up going out of business. At the end of the day what we need as consumers are products, games in this case, at affordable and reasonable prices, which satisfy our gaming needs and which allow the companies that do it well to be rewarded with transactional revenue which they will plough a good percentage of that back into innovating for the future. What protects us as consumers and what drives companies to innovate more and more is competition. We need lots and lots of it.
For those who say Sony implementing something like this will be f**ked are simply wrong. For every second hand game that exists someone at some point bought it first hand. That was the point the company made the money. This can only have one affect, drive further revenue. I don't believe people who tend to buy first hand (like me) will stop buying because people who buy second hand are getting shafted.

"A win is a win but we didn't play our best today," said Canisius head coach Scott Teeter. "Siena outworked us in certain areas. We need to play with more discipline defensively and take care of the ball. What saved us today was that we shot the ball pretty well. We need to play better and more of a complete game on Saturday against Fairfield if we hope to win."
Oosting enjoyed a career day on the offensive end to lead the Griffs to the victory. The senior midfielder netted a personal-high seven goals (on just nine shot attempts). Oosting also added three draw controls, three ground balls and one caused turnover in the win.
Senior Carly Quinn paced the Canisius offense with a game-high four assists. Senior Theresa Walton, junior Lindsey Morgan and freshman Tori Quinn all netted two goals for the Griffs, with senior Kristy Wilensky, junior Morgan Leonard and sophomore Maria Kotas rounding out the scoring for Canisius with a goal each.
Freshman Kayla Scully recorded six saves in net, while Leonard, Morgan and sophomore Gabby Kotas anchored the Canisius defense with three caused turnovers each.
Canisius got out to a strong start in the contest, netting six of the game's first seven goals. Walton gave the Griffs the lead for good with the first tally of the game 21 seconds in before Tori Quinn followed at the 23:46 mark. After Siena got on the scoreboard, the Griffs netted the next four goals with two by Oosting and one each of Leonard and Tori Quinn for a commanding 6-1 lead halfway through the first.
Siena fought back and after a 5-2 run in the next 12-plus minutes, the Saints pulled to within two, 8-6. Canisius reclaimed its momentum right before the half when Wilenskey scored with 1:25 left in the first and Oosting added her fourth goal of the game with just 15 seconds remaining before halftime as the teams headed into the intermission with the Griffs ahead, 10-6.
Canisius quickly stretched its lead to five early in the second stanza but the Saints once again clawed their way back into the contest, outscoring the Griffs, 4-1, over the next 10 minutes to pull back within two, 12-10.
Oosting ended the Siena momentum, however, and gave Canisius control of the game with two tallies followed by Morgan's first goal of the contest for a 15-10 lead with 11:19 left in regulation. Both teams added one tally the remainder of the game as the Griffs improved to 2-0 in league play for the second-straight year and for just the fourth time in the program's history with the 16-11 victory.
Canisius finished the contest with a 27-22 advantage in shots despite losing the draw control battle, 17-11. Katie Maguire led the Saints with four goals and seven draw controls, while Kristin Concordia and Danielle DeLisio combined to make seven saves.
The Griffs now prepare to face Fairfield on Saturday in a rematch of the 2011 MAAC Championship, which Canisius won, 13-8. The Griffs host the Stags at the Demske Sports Complex with first draw scheduled for 11 a.m.
Game Notes: The Griffs also started 2-0 in MAAC play during the 2006, 2009 and 2011 seasons ... Canisius has won six-straight meetings against Siena and now leads the all-time series, 9-6 ... Wednesday's game was a rematch of a 2011 MAAC Semifinal, which the Griffs won, 11-9, en route to winning the title ... Oosting's previous career high in goals was five, accomplished on four occasions ... Oosting's seven tallies are also just one shy of the school record, held by Ashley Curtis and Carly Quinn ... The senior also moved to fifth place in the program's history with 151 career points, passing former teammate Taylor Gray, who recorded 149 career points from 2008 to 2011 ... Carly Quinn moved into third place on the program's all-time scoring list ... Quinn now has 166 career points (92g, 74a), passing Whitney Card, who recorded 164 points from 2005 to 2008 ... Canisius lost the draw control battle for only the second time this season in 10 games.

text: This move after the end of the program is starting to drive me crazy. It looks so undignified and really ruins any aura/mood the program just created. I especially hate when they do it the second their program ends without even holding the end pose. We all know you made a mistake you didn't meant to make, now save your reaction for backstage please.

Oracle system performance inefficiencies often go undetected for months or even years--even under intense scrutiny--because traditional Oracle performance analysis methods and tools are fundamentally flawed. They're unreliable and inefficient.Oracle DBAs and developers are all too familiar with the outlay of time and resources, blown budgets, missed deadlines, and marginally effective performance fiddling that is commonplace with traditional methods of Oracle performance tuning. In this crucial book, Cary Millsap, former VP of Oracle's System Performance Group, clearly and concisely explains how to use Oracle's response time statistics to diagnose and repair performance problems. Cary also shows how "queueing theory" can be applied to response time statistics to predict the impact of upgrades and other system changes.Optimizing Oracle Performance eliminates the time-consuming, trial-and-error guesswork inherent in most conventional approaches to tuning. You can determine exactly where a system's performance problem is, and with equal importance, where it is not, in just a few minutes--even if the problem is several years old.Optimizing Oracle Performance cuts a path through the complexity of current tuning methods, and streamlines an approach that focuses on optimization techniques that any DBA can use quickly and successfully to make noticeable--even dramatic--improvements.For example, the one thing database users care most about is response time. Naturally, DBAs focus much of their time and effort towards improving response time. But it is entirely too easy to spend hundreds of hours to improve important system metrics such as hit ratios, average latencies, and wait times, only to find users are unable to perceive the difference. And an expensive hardware upgrade may not help either.It doesn't have to be that way. Technological advances have added impact, efficiency, measurability, predictive capacity, reliability, speed, and practicality to the science of Oracle performance optimization. Optimizing Oracle Performance shows you how to slash the frustration and expense associated with unraveling the true root cause of any type of performance problem, and reliably predict future performance.The price of this essential book will be paid back in hours saved the first time its methods are used.

Our look is the result of reader comments, our own experimentation, and feedback from distribution channels. Distinctive covers complement our distinctive approach to technical topics, breathing personality and life into potentially dry subjects. The animals on the cover of Optimizing Oracle Performance are yellowjackets. Though frequently mistaken for bees, yellowjackets are a type of wasp. They can be distinguished from bees by their lack of hair. They also often have brighter black and yellow coloring on their tails. Yellowjackets are around half an inch long, and the queen is about three-quarters of an inch long. They can be found throughout North America. Wasps build nests by chewing bits of wood and leaves into a paper-like pulp. The nest is built in a dry, protected place such as a tree, log, shrub, or hole in the ground, or attached to a building.Yellowjackets live in large colonies comprising a queen, female workers, and males. In the spring, the queen, who is the only yellowjacket that breeds, builds a small nest and lays eggs. When they hatch, the female workers expand the nest, look for food, and take care of the queen and the colony. The males fertilize the queen, who continues to lay eggs and expand the colony. In the winter, all yellowjackets except the queen die.Yellowjackets are scavengers. They eat other insects, rotting fruit, and garbage. They are often considered to be pests because they are attracted to the food at picnics. Yellowjackets can sting repeatedly. Humans should avoid yellowjackets, which are attracted to bright clothing and sweet smells. If you encounter a yellowjacket, stay calm and walk away slowly. Swatting at it may anger it and cause it to sting. Furthermore, if hit, a yellowjacket may release venom into the air, which is an alarm signal that will summon other yellowjackets. Yellowjackets are beneficial because they eat large numbers of agricultural pests. Jane Ellin was the production editor and proofreader for Optimizing Oracle Performance.

Eye opener for Performance Experts
By SIMHAMYLN
from Undisclosed
Comments about oreilly Optimizing Oracle Performance:
I came across this book from Tom Kyte's URL and bought it immediately. I am so pleased with myself for choosing this book without a second thought. As the Authors rightly said, for long long time, i have been working on performance related issues using the dictionary views and statpack. Though attempted to read the tracefile with the help of information from other great books, i never had the comfort of reading and understanding the tracefile this well.The approach taken by the authors is very much appreciated. The method changes the readers thinking and encourages to see the subject from a different angle (root cause).Thank you everyone involved in producing this book. I would suggest to all my Oracle friends.Regards

Really Great Reading
By Paul Dyer
It has been quite some time since I had read a tech book cover to cover. This book presents valuable tuning information that has been a long time coming. The information meets my specific needs to solve performance issues in a direct, time-efficient manner. Trial-and-Error is no longer part of my work ethic. With C.Milsap's new tuning methodology, a deteministic approach to Oracle tuning is available for Oracle professionals.My biggest regret is that I didn't have this information earlier; during the previous 3 or 4 multi-month efforts at tuning long-running SQL batch jobs. Each of my tuning efforts was a success in the end, but not without a significant waste of time using Trial-and-Error, or Intuition-via-Guess.Also, I would like to thank the author for his work in Queuing Model Theory. Very, very few teachers and writers can deliver a useful and understandable presentation of queuing theory.
Optimizing Oracle Performance Review
By Thierry Brouwers
This book is amazing. As a true believer in the methods put forth by Hotsos, highlighted in various whitepapers available online, and a great admirer of the technical expertise brought forward by all Oaktable members (of which I had the distinct privilege to meet a few), I didn't have to think twice about this purchase. I read it twice cover to cover during one weekend, as the author's enthusiasm really rubs off. While other books often just list an array of scripts and seemingly random pieces of information to equip the reader with the means to do Oracle performance tuning, this book not only arms you with the technical know-how, but also an inspiring 'can-do' frame of mind plus the author's proven way of tackling performance issues.Surprisingly, this book is an easy read. But very hard to put down.If you've heard of Hotsos.com, you've probably got a copy of this book already.If you haven't, you're in for a treat.Thierry BrouwersFreelance OCP Oracle DBADB MindedBelgium

I have dropped a very stout 350 into an '83 Malibu Wagon. Ended up not being able to use the Tranny that was behind this engine because it was toast so I have kept the TH350 that was behind the 305 that I replaced. My problem is the same as lots of people and that is money. This swap has taken me almost 2 years to get done because I am no longer able to do major jobs like this. What I want to know is, can I swap out the governor weights and the shift spring to take out most of the factory slippage? I don't want to have to go as far as a shift kit if I can get away with it. There again, money. As savings grow I plan on swapping to an overdrive, again junkyard or Craigslist but until then I need this tranny to survive. This isn't a strip car by any means. Just a good Driver. I've already got a new cooler and fresh fluids/filter in the car. Fighting heat build-up is my main concern hence wanting to remove as much slippage as possible. Any help is greatly appreciated!
you might want to play with the MODULATOR adjustment before you start messing with the governor weights..the modulator controls the shift points.. the valve body and the drilled hose change the firmness of the shift points..there are articles in some of the many magazines on this site on both governor adjustment. and on modulator adjustments.would you like to read some of them..one thing that will greatly effect shift quality.. is the need to run a metal modulator tube with as little vacuum hose as possible... factory modulator tubes are usually 1/4" tubing with the ends crimped down.. the one at the back of the intake usually slips directly into the fitting with a hose that seals from the fitting barb to the tubing barb... so there is no expansion and contraction at that end... at the modulator end .. there is usually a MOLDED 90 degree elbow that comes with some modulators or from transmission parts suppliers... its still enough to reduce any damping from expanding and contracting of the hose section. an additional transmission oil cooler mounted out in front of the radiator is the best way to keep the transmission below the damage temps.. you can run the transmission fluid thru the factory cooler in the radiator then thru the aftermarket cooler..if you decide on going to the 700R4.. then you will need a carb throttle lever bracket to correct the hook up point for the overdrive transmissions throttle valve cable..
is the th350 your using lock-up? there would be connections for the computer on it. if its non-computer controlled, my thoughts are its either low on fluid, the filter is clogged, wrong converter, or its on its way out. the governer controls how fast it shifts to the next gear. not really gonna fix a slipping tranny. JMO.
Think we got our lines of commo crossed. I mean something else when I say factory "slippage". The trans I have is what came in the car and it shifted great behind the 305 but it has that same easy gear change that they all have from the factory. That's what I mean when I say slippage. It's not computer controlled at all. It's all mechanical. I haven't gotten the car back yet so I haven't driven it to see how soft the shifts are gonna be. I just know that I want to remove as much of that soft shift as I can without having to go into the trans. I know I can adjust some of the shift points by adjusting the modulator but that will only change when it shifts. I want to change how soft it shifts. The cooler is in front of the radiator and brand new. They used this tranny because the one behind the engine to begin with was toast. That whole two to make one thing.
I believe what you want is a shift kit. B&M, TCI, and others sell various kits that will change your transmissions characteristics from soggy to anywhere between mild & very wild.
i agree... if the transmission is out...flip it over and put a shift kit in it...its NOT that hard to accomplish.. firming up the shifts... so there is less slip between them ... that involves everything included in a shift kit...there are multiple levels of shift firmness..there are some TH350 shift kit instructions in PDF form floating around the web...so you can review before you buy.... in factory shift feel... there is an issue of WHIPLASH Liability.. nobody wants a stocker to shift that hard..

I have three costumes. I have three because im a college student and so far I been to a halloween party almost every night and a player dosent wear the same costume to another party!

I'm actually extremely pissed at what is happening to Let's Players on Youtube. Great commentary/review channels are being thrown to the side while shitty shallow channels like PewDiePie and TobyGames gets to keep their copyright and money making benefits.
The man is always trying to ruin my internet, dude.
Long story short, networks don't want to deal with the thousands of channels that are infringing on copyright violations, so they're keeping them a part of the network, taking their money, but not even giving them the benefits of not going through an approval process amongst other things. So the content will be slowed, smaller channels are stripped of benefits, but the networks still get to keep part of their money.
While bigger channels who give them more money get to keep the benefits and do what they please because the network is on their side. On a business side it makes sense, but the fact that networks are there to protect and channel and jump through hoops for them, it's contradicting. They're bound by contract, so now these small channels are in an agreement that takes their earned money and nothing else.

NH gigs
Recycled Percussion braves snowstorm to play NH gigs
January 05. 2014 6:44PM
Ryan Vezina uses his body as a drum as Recycled Percussion prepares for their concerts at the Palace Theatre on Friday, in Manchester. (Thomas Roy/Union Leader)
This winter odyssey was captured on Recycled Percussion's Facebook page, as fans cheered them along the way (one even urged them to rent the SUV). Then they celebrated as they are wont to do: with a great, glorious racket on stage.
"It was pretty hectic," he said by phone Friday night, as Reycled Percussion was loudly playing in the background.
While in New Hampshire, Recycled Percussion will also play at the Lebanon Opera House next Friday and at the Flying Monkey in Plymouth on Saturday for two shows.

Arsène Wenger says he will not tolerate any questioning of Andrey Arshavin's attitude and insists he remains a "top professional".
The Russian schemer stepped off the bench to provide the cross that led to Mikel Arteta's winning goal against QPR on Saturday.
The 31-year-old is now expected to feature against Reading in the Capital One Cup, and Wenger has hailed the playmaker's approach..
"I say that because [his attitude] has been questioned. I don't tolerate that," the manager told Arsenal Player. "If that was the case I would not speak about it.
"But Andrey comes in every day and practices well, he is focused and wants to do well. I insist on this, because it was questioned and it is completely unjustified. In this case perception is not reality.
"He is a classy player and a top professional with a great attitude. You could see that when he came on [against QPR], his brightness and his intelligence with the final ball is fantastic."

Billie Holiday
Name at birth: Eleanora Fagan
Billie Holiday was one of the first and greatest of American jazz singers, known in equal parts for her unique and laconic timing, her wistful and brassy vocals, and her troubled personal life. Holiday began singing in Harlem clubs as a teenager, and first recorded (with Benny Goodman) in 1933. She was a sensation at New York's famous jazz club, The Apollo, and sang with the bands of Artie Shaw and Count Basie, among others. Holiday was nicknamed "Lady Day" during this era by saxophonist Lester Young, with whom she often recorded. In the 1940s she began using heroin and opium, and her last years were marked by her decline in health as a result of drink and drugs. Her most famous songs include "God Bless the Child," "Lover Man" and "My Man." She was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as an early influence in the year 2000.
Holiday's 1956 autobiography was titled Lady Sings the Blues. Diana Ross played Holiday in the 1972 film of the same name.

Recent photographs which depict North Korean leader Kim Jong Il as seriously ill, reportedly with cancer, may explain the outpouring of threats and warnings about possible nuclear attacks that North Korea issues almost every day. The North has threatened a "thousand-fold" military retaliation if anyone attacks their nation. North Koreans can sleep peacefully at night because there is no plan to invade or bomb that nation. General Walter Sharp, the top US commander in Korea assures one and all there is sufficient military force to handle, "anything North Korea can throw at us."
The world can expect turmoil and confusion once Kim dies and his son attempts to become leader of the country. It is almost certain there must be generals in the North Korean army ready to make a quick grab at power and send the young punk son off to China.
Of course, no one knows exactly what will happen. Who knows, maybe North Korea has a young George Bush who sees WMD in South Korea that must be destroyed.
