Quick Review: Plextor PX-B120U External Blu-ray Reader
Ahh, the humble ROM drive. Really, it's probably one of the lesser items that don't get the same attention as some other components in the system, but it's also one of the more important components. Today we're looking at an external one from Plextor and we've got to say, external ones are playing a bit more importance these days due to the fact that we're seeing so many laptops and netbooks with no ROM drive at all. Inside the PX-B120U package there's not a whole lot going on. We've got a single USB cable, some paperwork, a cleaning cloth, driver CD and the drive itself. You might've realized that there's no power connector included and that's because the drive itself is powered by only the USB connector. Other stand out features on the PX-B120U include Blu-ray support with 4x read, standard DVD support with 8x read and CD support with 24x read. Checking out the drive itself, it's got to be said that this is a very good looking external drive. With aesthetics being so important to people these days it's nice to see that Plextor has gone to the effort to make the PX-B120U look good on your desk. Across the top we've got this really nice design which is a similar pattern to throwing a rock into still water. Outside of this, the rest of the drive is quite plain and simple; it's not a bad thing as it's very simple to use and setup. At the back we've got only a single mini USB port. When using the included cable the drive is both powered and connected to the system. On the front we've got a single Eject button on the left which pops the hood up; a bit different to the standard pop-out design, but what it lets you do is use the drive in a smaller area where you don't need that CD length space for the tray to pop out. The fact it's a little different compared to what we're used to also makes it a little more interesting. |
When it came to performance of the drive, we pulled out Nero DiscSpeed 10 to see how the drive performed against our Lite-On iHES208, which is a SATA driven 8x Blu-ray drive. On a 20GB Blu-ray movie (The Mask), our iHES208 achieved up to 7.66x which is close to its limit and an average of 5.8x. The PX-120U managed to hit 3.82x and an average of 2.89x, which are good numbers considering it's only a 4x drive. Its performance is almost exactly half of the 8x drive, as you would expect. It's spot on for what it's rated at and its connection via USB is handy. Access times on the iHES208 come in at 139ms random and 1/3 is 185ms. The PX-B120U times are 183ms and 192ms respectively. Considering we've moved to USB and the drive is only 4x, this is again very impressive. Other important numbers include 23 MB/s burst, spin up time of 3.55 seconds and CPU usage at 1x, 2x and 4x are 0%, 1% and 2%, which isn't bad when again considering we're using USB connectivity. For under $99.99 the Plextor PX-B120U is a really nice buy if you're looking for an external drive that's capable of Blu-ray playback. Limitations are present by the decision to offer USB-only and offer power via the same connectivity. The con to this is that speeds just not going to be as good as a drive that is powered by a separate connector, or something that's internal. The pro to the connectivity is the fact that we've only got 1 cable. On our test bed the cable was a little short, but for most it won't be an issue as the drive is more designed for a laptop. With that said, we used a USB extension cable and that continued to let the drive work perfectly fine. The inclusion of an extension cable would've been a nice little extra as well, mainly because if your main PC didn't have a BR drive, you could use this as well. And really, the included cable is just a little short for that kind of usage. All in all, the PX-B120U is a really nice drive. Its performance is good and fairly in line with what the drive is rated at. Outside of the performance and its usefulness, though, it's again got to be said that the PX-B120U is a good looking device. Small and a nice overall design which drops the traditional tray make it stand out. For some the PX-B120U is going to be something that doesn't interest them as they have no need for an External ROM drive, let alone a Blu-ray supporting one. But for others that are in the market for something like this, it's a fantastic piece of kit. |

All you really need are some seed potatoes, some potting soil, and a large burlap or sturdy plastic sack to dump the soil into. Even urban gardeners with little more than a balcony for outdoor space can have fresh, home-grown potatoes by the time fall rolls around. AdvertisementOver at Food52, Amy Pennington explains that all you have to do to grow potatoes in a bag is pick a nice sturdy bag (she used a large biodegradable plastic sack, but suggested a used coffee sack will do just fine), some quick-growing organic seed potatoes, and some potting soil. Put the sack into a large storage container, pot, or other easily handled container, fill the sack with the soil, cut the potatoes into sections, plant plant your potatoes, and wait. Best of all, they don't take much additional care, aside from light watering and some extra soil midway through the summer.

Written by Connie Larkman
A church with moxie, on a mission to celebrate and care for God's creation. That's the best description for Kirkwood UCC's approach to Mission 4/1 Earth.
"We certainly need to pay attention to caring for creation, as we care for each other," said Gary Garrett, a member of the Atlanta church, an engineer by trade and person with a real passion for environmental issues. Garrett continued, "As Wendell Berry says, "You cannot know that life is holy if you are content to live from economic practices that daily destroy life and diminish its possibility."
Garrett, one of a team of six Kirkwood members ramping up ways to engage their neighbors in environmental education and action during the UCC's Mission 4/1Earth all-church initiative that begins Easter Monday, April 1, says the church is pledging 500 hours of earth care, will plant 50 trees and write 50 letters over the course of the 50 day event. Those are goals set by the congregation of 80-100 members. The UCC-wide goals –– one million hours of earth care, 100,000 trees planted and 100,000 advocacy letters sent between Easter Monday and Pentecost Sunday (May 19).
"Mission 4/1 Earth is about recognizing the holiness of the things which have become ordinary to us (trees, service, political power) and becoming active participants in them," said Jordyne Krumroy, another of the Kirkwood UCC's environmental planning team. "As we seek to worship, love and serve, we must remember that God permeates the most tangible aspects of creation, and that our care of this earth is care of all that is holy."
The church, which got its start just five years ago in a coffeehouse in Atlanta's Kirkwood neighborhood, is setting up strategic community partnerships to help achieve the congregation's Mission 4/1 Earth goals. Collaborating with Trees Atlanta works to green up their neighborhood. "We're trying to work with them to see if there is some place we can plant in Kirkwood," said Garrett. Trees Atlanta provides the trees and "typically a couple of volunteers can plant two or three trees in a morning." Trees Atlanta, founded in 1985 and responsible for planting some 90,000 trees in the city, is just one of the environmental groups Kirkwood UCC will be collaborating with.
Another organization, Georgia Interfaith Power & Light, will provide a speaker to talk on April 7 about caring for creation, and over Earth Day weekend on April 20, another partnership will send a group of Kirkwood UCC volunteers to the Decatur Kitchen Garden Global Growers village, where they will be working alongside refugees from Burma, Burundi and Republic of Congo.
Karen Mann, a founding member of Kirkwood UCC who works with the Global Growers Network, says Mission 4/1 Earth provides "an incredible opportunity to affect change both in the national conversation around environmental issues and in the practical steps toward sustainability within our local communities. This is why I believe that UCC must come together as one church and why I am committed to working for Mission 4/1 Earth. We cannot be silent nor can we sit back passively and let others do the work for us."
The planning team is also talking about a bike day at Kirkwood UCC, proposed for April 28, inviting members to meet up along a designated route and ride together to church. There will be a blessing of the bikes, and minor bike repair and tune ups offered to the congregation and surrounding community. "Screen on the Green" – with an environmental film to be shown on church grounds – is also in the works with a tentative date of May 11. In addition, the church is planning a 4/1 Earth Mission Minute during church each Sunday from April 7 through May 19.
"I think we have to be careful to remember that this mission is not a marketing effort, but a way to usher in the remembrance of our call to care for creation." Krumroy says. "As we seek to worship God through creation care, it's important that we speak up for the environmental injustices done, and that the Church begins to loudly repair the ways in which we've ignored creation."
The Kirkwood UCC Mission 4/1 Earth planning team will be using social media to publicize their events and plan to post a 4/1 Earth time card on the church website to make it easy to count earth care hours.
And for the kickoff event –– Garret says the congregation is planning to plant a tree on Easter Sunday, in the park or in Pastor Susannah Davis' front yard.
The United Church of Christ has been working for environmental justice for almost 30 years, and hopes Mission 4/1 Earth provides an opportunity for a shared mission campaign to live out our faith — in unity, as one church — for the sake of our fragile planet.
Through the Arbor Day Foundation, participants in Mission 4/1 Earth can buy trees that will be sent to them for planting, and purchase Give-A-Tree cards, noting that trees will be planted on their behalf by the U.S. Forest service in a national forest.

"Martin Luther King said that the moral arc of the universe bends towards justice, and yet nothing about ushering in justice came without strife," said Krumroy. "So too it is with Mission 4/1 Earth. While we can do good in our individual communities, we must unite as people of faith who live for and through a greater call, seeing that our spiritual and earthly communities are without boundaries."

Andy Murray withdrew from the French Open on Tuesday because of a chronic back injury and will now focus on preparing for the start of the grass-court season next month.
The U.S. Open champion met with specialists this week after being forced to pull out of his second-match against Marcel Granollers of Spain at the Italian Open last Wednesday because of the long-standing complaint.
"It's a really tough decision and I love playing in Paris, but after seeking medical advice I am not fit to compete," Murray said in a statement. "Apologies to the organizers and thanks to everyone for the messages of support. Now my complete focus is on getting back on the court as soon as possible."
The French Open, the second Grand Slam tournament of the year, starts Sunday at Roland Garros.
Last week in Rome, Murray took a long injury break early in the second set against Granollers, getting his left thigh and lower back massaged.
He seemed pessimistic about his chances of playing in the French Open, the only major in which he hasn't reached the final.
"I have an issue with my lower back. It's been an issue for a while," Murray said then. "I want to make sure it goes away. It's been a problem since the end of 2011 but it got bad during last year's clay season.
"I would be very surprised if I was playing in Paris."
Murray reached the quarter-finals at Roland Garros last year, falling to David Ferrer, before going on to lose his first Wimbledon final to Roger Federer. He avenged that defeat against the Swiss star to win Olympic gold, and downed Novak Djovokic at Flushing Meadow for his first Grand Slam title later in 2012.
Wimbledon runs from June 24 to July 7 this year.

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) -- The senator pushing for tougher regulations on silica sand mining says the state needs to take extra steps to protect drinking water from the booming industry.
Sen. Matt Schmit is asking the state to fund easements that would bar sand mines from being built where they could affect groundwater quality. Schmit hasn't set a dollar amount yet, but says the amount of easements would go up as the state's contribution increases.
The Senate Environment, Economic Development and Agriculture finance committee considered Schmit's proposal Wednesday as one of several infrastructure and construction projects to possibly include in a state bonding bill.
Schmit, a Red Wing Democrat, is also calling for a statewide study on the health and environmental impacts of the industry along with a one-year freeze on new mines.

Although the passage was expensive and the ships were dark, crowded, and unsafe, those who made the voyage safely were rewarded with opportunities unavailable to them in their homeland. Research into passenger and immigration lists has revealed some of the very first Heardymants to arrive in North America: John Hardeman, who settled in Barbados in 1685; Edward Hardman arrived in Pennsylvania in 1698; Phillip Hardman arrived in Pennsylvania in 1772; Edward, John, Michael, Richard, Thomas and William Hardman all arrived in Philadelphia between 1820 and 1840..

State Rep. Ed Neilson said he's hoping for a smooth transition to City Council.
Neilson (D-169th dist.) won a special election on May 20 to fill the unexpired term of Bill Green, a Democrat who resigned his at-large seat to become chairman of the School Reform Commission.
For now, Neilson is focused on spending time in Harrisburg, helping to craft a state budget.
"Every vote counts up there," he said.
Neilson's district office remains open, and he continues to attend community meetings.
As far as the state budget, he said, funding for public education needs to be increased. Talk of ways to raise revenue is "in the beginning stages."
Neilson mentioned the possibilities of raising taxes on cigarettes and/or natural gas drilling. A hike in the income tax is unlikely, he said, in an election year. He favors preserving existing spending levels.
"There's not much more to cut," he said.
On the city level, he's met with Council President Darrell Clarke on issues such as pensions, schools, the budget and a possible sale of Philadelphia Gas Works. He's also discussed office space and staffing. No date has been set for him to join Council.
Last week, Neilson was pleased that the House of Representatives unanimously passed his legislation that would create a pilot program to provide evidence-based early screening and other intervention services for children with risk factors of dyslexia.
House Bill 198 would establish the Dyslexia and Early Literacy Intervention Pilot Program in at least three Pennsylvania school districts. The Senate has already passed the bill, and Gov. Tom Corbett is expected to sign it.
"Given the right tools and opportunity, these kids can succeed," Neilson said.
Dyslexia, also known as developmental reading disorder, is a reading disability that occurs when the brain does not properly recognize and process certain symbols. It is believed that 15 to 20 percent of the U.S. population displays at least some symptoms of dyslexia, although it often goes undiagnosed for years and sometimes is not formally recognized until adulthood, if ever.
Three years after implementation of the pilot program, the state Secretary of Education would submit an evaluation of the pilot program to the General Assembly containing recommendations to continue, expand or make changes to the program. The Pennsylvania Department of Education would also determine whether programs of this type have the potential to reduce future special education costs in the state.
The campaign of Gov. Tom Corbett is calling on Democratic opponent Tom Wolf to release the details of his budget proposal.
Wolf is a wealthy York County businessman and former secretary of the state Department of Revenue.
"As the chief executive, you have to make tough decisions and you need to be honest with the people," said Mike Barley, Corbett's campaign manager. "How much would Secretary Tom Wolf's promises cost taxpayers, and why hasn't he included these numbers as part of his campaign platform? Pennsylvanians deserve more than pie-in-the-sky promises; they deserve to know what the Wolf budget would look like. Secretary Wolf needs to stop hiding behind the slick television ads touting his razor-thin campaign platform filled with poll-tested buzz words that bought him the Democratic nomination."
The Pennsylvania AFL-CIO endorsed Wolf for governor.
Pennsylvania AFL-CIO Secretary-Treasurer Frank Snyder said, "Pennsylvania's workers are fed up with the current administration, which has focused on everything except what matters most to them. Tom Wolf is raising the issues that workers care about – the need to restore funding for education and infrastructure investments as the keys to creating jobs and expanding the middle class. Mr. Wolf understands that you grow an economy from the ground up and not from the top down. We will work just as hard in supporting and electing Tom Wolf governor as we are doing to defend good jobs, defend decent pensions and defend our rights to a strong voice in the workplace and in politics."
Wolf is supporting primary rival Katie McGinty as chairwoman of the state party.
The current chairman is Jim Burn, who said he intends to try to keep his post.
The election is later this week.
McGinty is a Rhawnhurst native and St. Hubert High School graduate who is a former secretary of the state Department of Environmental Protection.
She fared very poorly in the primary, finishing a distant fourth in a four-person race with less than 8 percent of the vote. She did worse in her native Philadelphia, managing just 4 percent.
However, unlike distant runner-up Allyson Schwartz and third-place finisher Rob McCord, she did not attack Wolf.
The Philadelphia Republican City Committee last week unanimously elected its officers to four-year terms.
State Rep. John Taylor was re-elected as chairman.
The rest of the executive board slate consisted of vice chairs Agnes "Chuckie" Tilley and Michael Cibik; honorary vice chairwoman Suzanne Haney; secretary Vincent Fenerty; treasurer Walt Vogler Jr.; general counsel Michael Meehan; assistant secretary Kevin Pasquay; assistant treasurer Calvin Tucker; and associate general counsel Linda Kerns.
The Independence Hall Tea Party is criticizing Hillary Clinton, who last week visited Philadelphia on a nationwide book tour, for her seemingly preposterous remarks that she and her husband were "dead broke" when they left the White House in 2001.
Teri Adams, president of the local Tea Party, said Clinton should have visited poor neighborhoods in Philadelphia when she was in town to see the failed policies of the Great Society - the 1960s-era Democratic initiative that, Adams said, has led to an even larger number of Americans living at or below the poverty level despite the accumulated federal spending of $22 trillion over the last 50 years.
"Imagine what tall tales are contained in those books - for if she can lie about being 'dead broke' after leaving the White House, she can and has obviously lied about so many other matters," Adams said. ••

SUMMIT POINT, W.Va. – Adrian Starrantino took home 50 points in an outstanding photo finish at Summit Point Motorsports Park to win the race, but it was Jake Eidson that clinched the 2013 F1600 Formula F Championship Series title with a careful third place drive.
Starrantino spent the 20-lap race locked in a duel with Aaron Telitz, and managed to beat the 21-year-old to the line by millimeters as the two went side-by-side for most of the last lap.
For Eidson, it wasn't another win, but a third place finish gave him the points gap he needed to clinch the 2013 title with one race left on Sunday at Summit Point for Cape Motorsports with Wayne Taylor Racing in the No. 10 Spectrum/Honda. It's a repeat Championship for the Capes, who had their No. 10 car drive to the title in 2012 as well.
"The Championship feels good," Eidson said. "I didn't want to get involved there (with the leaders) and just stayed behind Adrian and Aaron. Every race this year the Capes have given me an awesome car, and we've hardly had any issues. It's been a great season."
Eidson completes the season in round 12 at Summit Point on Sunday, and then will fly straight to Florida for the Team USA Scholarship shootout competition, joining fellow Americans Starrantino and Telitz.
For the race winners, in a pair of Mygale/Hondas, it was a 20-lap fight to the finish in the all-green-flag event. Starrantino led most of the way, but Telitz, who started from pole, never found himself more than an inch or two from the No. 98's gearbox.
As the last lap unfolded, Starrantino's Bryan Herta Autosport entry would go side-by-side with Telitz's WISKO Racing No. 13 for the opening corners, and then again coming onto the front straight. As Starrantino went low to defend, Telitz used the draft to get a run, pulling out. At the line, it was near dead even with officials giving the nod to Starrantino. It was the California-native's fourth win of the 2013 season.
After getting shuffled back to sixth from the outside of the front row on the opening lap, Paul Alspach recovered to finish fourth in the second Mygale/Honda for the WISKO Racing camp.
Steve Bamford completed yet another Masters Class victory drive by finishing fifth overall in his Mygale/Honda, while Ayla Agren and Franklin Futrelle followed closely in positions six and seven. Futrelle could not match his practice-pacing form shown on Friday in the No. 9 Van Diemen/Honda.
Agren, meanwhile, will start from pole for the season finale, having set the fastest race lap at 1:14.629.
Futrelle's Raceworks teammate Jim Goughary was eighth, with Art Foster and Sam Chastain completing the top ten on a beautiful day at Summit Point with temperatures in the high seventies.

Road bond pushes county expenses up
Dawson County's levy inches up slightly.
It looks worse than it is.
Seeing a 20% increase in expenses and close to a 19% hike in tax request for Dawson County for the 2010-11 fiscal year will probably raise the blood pressure of more than a few property owners.
Clerk Karla Zlatkovsky cautions taxpayers to look deeper before picking up the phone to complain.
Included in both the revenue and expense totals for the coming budget is a five-year road allocation bond worth $2.735 million.
The bond was agreed upon by county commissioners last spring to pay for resurfacing 15 miles of highway from Overton to Sumner on Road 444.
The project is supposed to be complete in October, putting the cost in the next budget year.
Zlatkovsky said the bond was secured with highway allocation funds. The first principal payment of $535,000 is due in July.
Even after considering the road bond, property owners are still likely to grumble about increased county expenses when the economy is tight, Zlatkovsky said.
The tax levy will go up just about a penny, she said. That translates to a taxpayer cost of roughly $100 more for every $100,000 in value.
"For the average person who owns an average home, that's $100 to $200 more per year on their taxes," Zlatkovsky said.
It's the county residents who own a large amount of land, especially agricultural land, who will feel the hit the hardest, she said.
Overall, the county's valuation increased from $1.7 billion to $1.8 billion.
Some Dawson County ag land values jumped as much as 12% or more as the assessor's office worked to bring values in line with state requirements.
"Some people aren't going to notice much difference," Zlatkovsky said. "Others won't be so lucky."
The county's budget hearing will be during the commissioners regular bimonthly meeting on Sept. 15.

Wow, didn't really expect you to read this far down. The latest iteration of the site is in open beta. It's a gentle open beta-- not in prime-time just yet. It's being hosted over at UpGuard (link) and you are more than welcome to give it a shot. Couple things:
You'll need to install proctools. MacPorts and Fink have this if you're running Mac OS X, check your Linux distribution's repositories if it isn't installed by default.
This is to get the latest version of phpMyAdmin to support scripts to download the latest version of the software if they want to automatically update.
Will print the host associated with the current stdin.
This is useful to set the DOIT_SERVER for the doit remote execution agent ( http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/doit/ )
export DOIT_HOST=$(who -m | sed 's/.*(\(.*\)).*/\1/')
Note that SSH_CLIENT variable can be lost if you use su or sudo (if set to reset vars)
Telnet will make a tcp connection to a remote ip/port to test connectivity. If it times out, it's not reaching the host (maybe the firewall is blocking it). If connection is refused, it's reaching the host, but either the service is not listening on that port, or it's locked.
If you need to create a profile and are already running Firefox, you don't need to close it to do it. Also, if you don't know the exact name of the profile, this would allow you to pick from a list.
I think this is the cleanest way of getting the current working directory of a script. It also works on osx, Linux, and probably bsd as well..
Probably posted previously, I use this all the time to find and kill a process for "APP". Simply replace "APP" with the name of the process you're looking to kill.
This is like `cd -` but doesn't echo the new directory name, which is preferable (to me) for an alias, e.g.
alias cdo="cd $OLDPWD"
Be careful when issuing this command, it may kill unwanted processes!
To only search on the process name don't use the argument -f, pkill foo
We normally get tasks in which one has to sort a data file according to some column. For a single file say foo, we would use
sort -k 3 foo >tmp && tmp foo
The for loop is useful when we have to do it on a number of files.
This command deletes all but the first occurrence of a duplicate file in one or more folders.

I think the Holiday Bundle is a good price. You get 250GB, no Kinect, download code for Skyrm and Forza 4 for $250.
I don't know if the price cut is permanent though.

Despite the criticisms I've leveled at Lena Dunham, I've always admired her unabashed feminism. From her support of reproductive rights to her statements about body image to her insistence that young women's stories are valuable (if to no one else than to other young women), she seems like someone who "gets it," someone I'd like to be friends with, even. Which is why I was somewhat surprised to see her working with a well documented creeper.
In the latest issue of V Magazine, she expresses her blossoming hatred of pants by posing in a leotard for Terry Richardson. The pictures themselves are mostly fine, if a bit boring…she looks cute in them, and she's never been shy about showing us her thighs, which I appreciate.
I do wonder, however, what Lena Dunham thinks about all the incredibly sketchy stories (at least one of which I personally know to be true!) circulating about how Uncle Terry abuses his position of power to get barely legal teens to do him sexual favors they would probably prefer not to engage in. I'm not sure how any feminist could rationalize being buddies with that kind of person. I'd like to give her the benefit of the doubt and say she doesn't know him very well, but that seems unlikely, considering the fact that she's good friends with his girlfriend, Audrey Gelman. If I ever get to interview Lena, you can bet this will be the first question I ask her, even though it will probably not make her want to be my friend very badly.
Other tidbits from the story include:
-Lena Dunham "only" dropped $430,00 on a one bedroom apartment in one of New York's most expensive neighborhoods, which is less than other rich and famous people spend on their apartments, hence making her "a little less fabulous than the leading females around which she orbits." (I thought part of the point of Girls was that she is the leading female?)
-If you send Lena Dunham clothing in her size, for free, she will wear it.
-Lena Dunham thinks skinny actresses are jealous of her because her job doesn't depend on her looks and people expect her to look crappy, therefore she can eat cake for breakfast and dinner and still look better than they expect her to. (She might be right.)
-Lena Dunham is totally amused by Uncle Terry's "let's make you look like you just got a facial" trope:
You know you've really made it when Terry Richardson will let you do this with toothpaste instead of his actual jizz.

CASTRIES, St Lucia (CMC) — The St Lucia police Monday said they had detained six persons whom they believed had been involved in the ambush and rape of two British women while on an isolated beach on the island's north east coast.
Police said that the women, whose names were not given and in their early 30s, were on an environmental expedition which entailed camping at the location.
"We are pleased with speed at which the officers were able to apprehend the suspects in this case, and we are very thankful to members of the public who might have provided information leading to their arrests," Police Commissioner Vernon Francois said.
The men are due to appear in court later this week.
The incident is also being investigated by officials of the Ministry of Agriculture who explained that officers from the department would normally accompany students undertaking such assignments in these isolated locations.
British High Commissioner Karl Burrows described the attack on two women as a "dreadful crime" but has endorsed the island as a "friendly and welcoming country".
Burrows has advised British nationals visiting the island to exercise caution, as they would anywhere else, and pointed out that crime against UK tourists was not widespread.
"To put it into context, we have about 75,000 British to St Lucia each year and the vast majority of visits are incidents free," the high commissioner said.
"Our advice to British nationals is that common sense rules apply. There is crime as there is everywhere, but St Lucia is a friendly and welcoming country. Overall crime rates are low but common sense rules do apply. We advise against being in isolated areas after dark."
The British high commissioner expressed disappointment that news of the attack reached his office via the media and not through official channels.
"That's not the way things work and we are disappointed we were not contacted directly by the police, but hopefully we will be able to put procedures in place in order to remind the St. Lucia police of what sort of procedures should be followed," he told a local newspaper.

12 Tips To Help You Feel At Home On The Road
Traveling can be stressful. We know. Sometimes it helps just to bring a little piece of home with you. And don't worry — Hyatt is there to get rid of that pesky homesickness.
1. Unpack! Turn your hotel into your bedroom.
Even if you're only staying for a couple of nights, put a few things in the drawers. Keep your cheap jewelry on the dresser. Get comfy. It's your space.
2. Untuck those hotel sheets.
Chances are, when you're home, you don't sleep in what feels like an especially taut burrito. Or quesadilla. Yeah. Quesadilla is the better simile.
3. Two words: JetLag Genie.
Feeling crummy when you're out of town can be avoided with a little jet lag prevention. JetLag Genie is an app that, based on some travel info you give it, will condition you to adapt to a new time zone through a series of strategically placed alarms. Feeling fresh in your new spot is the first step to beating the travel blues.
4. Make sure you've got a comfort book (or two) on your eReader.
You know you've got one. It's a book that you keep going back to. A story that's familiar and comforting. Is it Harry Potter? It's Harry Potter, isn't it.
5. For the love of all that is holy, do not forget your comfy pants.
Yoga pants? Sweatpants? Satin jammies? An adult onesie? Whatever. Bring an item of clothing you feel warm and comfortable in. It's important for the next thing.
6. If you can, set aside a night to be lazy.
Think about it: room service, comfy pants, internet, reality TV. Try to feel homesick when you're snacking in your jammies watching Top Chef. Try.
7. Bring a few dryer sheets, and keep them in your hotel room.
It'll smell like home!
8. Use WhatsApp to stay in touch.
WhatsApp is a mobile messaging app available for all smart phones — it uses your data plan to text, which means there's no need to pay for SMS. So if you're on an international trip, don't fret! Staying in contact with loved ones is a snap.
9. Squeeze in a 7-minute workout every now and then.
Considering the stress of travel, it's no wonder people get moody and lethargic on business trips. But it could just be a lack of exercise that's getting you down. Behold! This workout is only seven minutes long, and you don't need any equipment except for a wall, and maybe a chair. It'll get your blood flowing, your energy up, and you'll be feeling like yourself again in no time.
10. Flight delayed? Why not project a movie?
Find a wall and project up to 60" worth of your favorite movie using your smartphone. You'll be the most popular person on your layover.
11. Get the most out of your phone speakers.
Cue up your comfort song (you know you've got one) on your phone, place the phone - speakers down - into a cup, hit play, repeat. This makeshift system will turn your empty hotel room into a one-person dance party.
12. On your phone, have a recording of a loved one saying "goodnight."
On second thought — depending on how homesick you are, this one might do more harm than good. Abort!

AustraliaTennis is a simple sport in which the only real variable is the players themselves; serve the ball in and then keep returning the ball until your opponent hits it out. When it comes to tennis tournaments, this is what Federer, Nadal, Djokovic and Murray do day in, day out with little trouble until the final rounds. The bookmakers know this, and you should know it, too. There is little value to be found in the early rounds of tournaments when backing the top players, but luckily there are plenty more players scrapping for vital early round wins that can carry them up the rankings.
Tennis has been transformed in recent years, with players forced to become fitter and stronger thanks to a renewed focus on lengthy baseline rallies, making it harder to achieve the aces and volleys that were once the bread and butter of hard-hitting players. This has led to a number of men's Grand Slams being decided by marathon matches, which can often go on for four and sometimes five hours of brutally consistent hitting. In fact, the longest Wimbledon match ever was recorded in 2010, lasting a staggering 11 hours and 5 minutes. These Grand Slams are the tour's major prizes, consisting of the Australian Open, Wimbledon, French Open and U.S Open, separating themselves from the other tour events by the number of sets - majors are played as a best-of-five rather than best-of-three.
The rest of the men's tour events fall into the categories of Masters 1000 events, 500 series events and 250 series events, with the numbers defining the relative importance of each series - the higher the number, the greater amount of ATP ranking points are awarded to the eventual winner. The women's tour has a similar system, although 1000 events are called Premier Mandatory, followed by Premier 5 and then Premier, with all women's matches played best-of-three, even at the Majors.
When betting on tennis, it's important to keep up to date with the various happenings on tour, and to always be aware that top players are much more vulnerable over best-of-three set matches than best-of-five. This is for two reasons: not only is it easier for an underdog to play at the required level for the shorter amount of time, but they are also competing against players who are far more focused on the major tournaments than these lesser events.
Strategy-wise, the key factors in tennis are recent form and surface history. There are some players who simply aren't as good on some surfaces as others. Clay is the best-known troublemaker, with American players particularly poor at adapting their game. When it comes to Wimbledon betting, try and take into account who may or may not struggle on grass. There are other factors to consider when it comes to tennis betting odds, however. You can put your money on the final set score, for example. Does a player look like he might have the talent to test one of the top players, but probably can't keep it going for three or five sets? Back them to win a set, but ultimately to lose to their more illustrious opponent.
When it comes to betting markets, gambling enthusiasts are presented with a wide array of options to choose from. Aside from the Outright Winner and To Win Match markets, there's the opportunity to bet on the total number of sets, individual set scores and whether or not there will be a tie-break in the match. You can also bet on total games in a set, a set score and total games in the match, whilst the more adventurous will appreciate the growing number of handicap options. One of the best handicap coupons separates the match into a race for games rather than sets, with a player of your choosing receiving a one or two game head start.
Favouring tennis betting odds can be found by backing the winner of a particular set. Is a player notoriously slow to get started? Back their opponent to take the first set. Does a player famously wobble when they have taken a lead? Have a look at the odds of their opponent taking the second set.
Another avenue to look at is betting on things like set-scores and total games played. The fairly ruthless Andy Murray may not be too interested in wasting time in the opening rounds, so it can be worth backing him to barely let his opposite number trouble the scoreboard. Fewer than 16 games, for example, would equate to a 6-1, 6-2 win. If you think two big servers may grind out three sets with few breaks, then look for a total that suggests a 6-4, 6-7, 7-6 score.
Elsewhere, if, for example, you're partaking in some Wimbledon betting, as with a lot of sports you can look through a day's play and put your money on an accumulator. You can play safe and look for a small return from backing the big names to all make it through the early rounds, or you can look to pinpoint the upsets and put two or three matches on one betting slip.
The later rounds in tennis tournaments are where you start looking at the statistics. If one of the players has been making a lot of errors in the tournament, then they will start to be punished as they face more talented players. Has a player been struggling with their first serve? The bigger names won't let them win as many points on their second serve, so take a look at the odds.
Tennis is an exciting betting market that offers wise punters ample opportunity to see returns on their wagers. Whether you're following a tournament on the other side of the world or right here at Wimbledon, betting on the back of a small amount of investigation into the players and the tournament will go a long way to giving you some success.
With such a large number of markets to choose from, tennis betting is a great option for both newcomers and experienced gamblers alike. To try it out for yourself, head over to Coral Sports today!

With all the news of hacking and identity theft, the online world can be a scary place. To arm members with the knowledge they need to protect themselves, the SAG Hollywood Division held a special presentation titled Protecting Yourself in a Cyber World on December 7, 2011 at SAG headquarters in Hollywood.
Featuring James Saxe, senior manager of Reputation.com; FBI Special Agent Richard P. Ryan; and Steve Martinez, associate director of FBI Los Angeles Field Office, the discussion offered practical advice on how to minimize the risk of being ripped off or having your identity stolen. It also examined the best ways to protect your investments, best practices when working for multiple employers and why seniors are a favorite targets for fraudsters.
Ryan offers his top 10 recommendations to minimize your exposure to fraud and identity theft:
• Wiring money is like sending cash; the sender has no protections against loss.
• Don't send money to someone you don't know.
• Don't respond to messages (emails, phone calls, text messages or ads) that ask for your personal or financial information.
• Don't "play" the foreign lottery or respond to emails and letters stating you have won: You have not won!
• Don't agree to deposit a check from someone you don't know and then wire money back, no matter how convincing the story.
• Read your bills and monthly statements regularly — online or on paper.
• Your trash becomes public property the moment you place it at the curb or put it in the trash bin; anyone can legally access it.
• Shred all of your personally identifying documents, even the unsolicited credit card applications you receive in the mail.
• Don't place outgoing mail and bills in an unlocked mailbox overnight; mail theft is a common way to become victimized financially.
• Ask your waiter or waitress to conduct your credit card transaction in front of you at the table, if possible.
• Check your credit report AT LEAST once per year.

Where I stayed
Later in the hotel I look through all my exciting purchases including a CD of another Finnish band I've discovered. Then it came to open the tripod box. So excited because I've always wanted one. I take it out & can't figure out where the legs are. Well turns out there is only one leg. WTF! Yep I look at the box again and it says MONOPOD on the top. A MONOPOD?! WHY? WHY IS THIS EVEN INVENTED? WHAT'S THE PURPOSE? AAARRRGGGHHH!!
So now I'm the very un-proud owner of a f***ing monopod. I guess I'll have to peg it into the snow to make it stable.

In some spots, I have inserted commands that are not really necessary. These are for your enjoyment. Also see the end of this file.] Hello, Ensign Seventh Class! Nice day, isn't it? Well, gird your loins and scrub that deck because you'll need all the luck you can muster. All you really need to do in this first section is wait around until the ship starts blowing up. Here are some fun things you can do until this happens: If Blather's around, throw something at him or examine him. Scrub the deck. (Saving the game first) Eat the celery the ambassador gives you. (Also saving) Attack Blather. Well, on with the walkthru. Before the ship blows, drop your ID card and scrubbrush - you don't need them, and they only weigh you down. BOOM! Came quicker than you though, eh? Well, this is obviously not a safe place to hang around, so go west into the safe ty pod. Get into the webbing. Here we go with the trademark of all Infocom games: Waiting! At least you can enjoy the nice descriptions... As soon as you land on the planet, get out of the webbing. Whoops! Clumsy you! Well, GET ALL, open the door, and it's up and out. Don't stay too long underwater, or you'll drown. Go up again, and reach the crag. Hm. Looks like even you could climb up there! So go for it! Keep going up until you reach the Courtyard. This is a good time to save the game. Now go N,NE,E,E,E (down the long hall) S,S,S,SE. Wow! A robot! Didn't you hear once that robots could hold things? You didn't? Well, they can, and this one does. Open him, and then turn him on. Drop the card here (I'll explain why later), and go do some of the more important stuff. Go west, and west again. Get the bar, and go: NE,N,N,N,N. Hold the bar over the crevice, and Bingo! Go east and drop the bar (it'll screw up the magnetic strips on the access cards is why), West, south, open your kit and drop it. Now to go use this key. Do: W,W,unlock the padlock with the key, take lock, drop lock and key, open door, north. Ignore the can, it's a red herring (but one of the neater ones, I'll admit: I spent 85 lives and 603 hours looking for a can opener!) Get the ladder, and go back with: S,E,E,N,N. Drop ladder and extend it. Put the ladder on the rift, and go north. Now to plunder! Do: W, Open desk, get shuttle card, West, Open desk, Get kitchen card, get upper card. Bet you're hungry by now, so: E,E,S,S,S. Get the kit and eat one of the blobs of goo. Drop it again, and: E, Push blue button, push red button. The doors won't open yet, so just wait for em. When the north door opens, get into the elevator, slide upper through slot, push up button, and wait. When the door opens, go south and northeast. Pay attention to the room description, and press glowing button. Hm. Better send 'em a message! But first, you have to fix the coolant system. Remember what color light is flashing on the console. Go SW and N, slide the card through the slot, and go down. When the door opens, do: S,W,S,S,SW. Get the flask and go E. Put flask under spout, and press whatever color button was flashing on the console upstairs. Get the flask, and go back to the elevator and up. When you get back to the Comm Room, Pour Chemical In Hole. Remember the light, and repeat these steps for as long as it takes for the system to cool off. [If you get sleepy between now and then, go to any of the dorms in the main hallway, get in bed, and wait. The dreams are pretty good, too.] OK. Assuming you have the coolant system fixed now, you need some extra food. Two more blobs of goo isn't enough for the rest of the game! So go to the kitchen (It's south from the storeroom where you got the ladder) and get the canteen to hold your food. Food? Yep. Slide kitchen through Slot! South, put canteen on slot, push button, get canteen, close canteen (in case you drop it), north, and drop kitchen. Now to get some more tools you'll need. Do: North, East until the junction, south,south,southwest. Get the laser and pliers. Go: NE,N,N,E. Get Bedistor, and it's time to Go Down! W,N,E,S, slide lower through slot, and wait. N,E,S,E. You should be in the shuttle car now. *This is an excellent time to save the game!* Slide shuttle card through slot, and push the lever up. We're off to see the wizard! Now keep waiting until your speed hits 55 ( never mind the sign you see). Then pull the lever down, and let your speed stay constant until you see the halfway mark. Wait once more, and then pull lever down. Wait, and you should coast right into Lawanda Station! If you don't, you screwed up. Restore your game! Now to finish fixing the rest of the systems. From Alfie Control East, do: W,N,U,U,NE,N. Tell Floyd to go north. Hm! Just what you need! Tell Floyd to get shiny board, and do: S,E,N. Open panel, remove second board, insert shiny board in panel, drop fried board. That's Planetary Defense. Now for Course Control. Go: S,E,N, open lid, remove fused bedistor with pliers, insert good bedistor in cube, drop fused bedistor and pliers. You have now fixed the little stuff, and are on your way to the big finish! Go south four times. You should be in the computer room. Wait here for Floyd. He will notice that the computer is busted. (Bright soul, isn't he?) Now to make a martyr of him. Do: NE,open bio-lock door, SE,E,look in window. There's what you need! But how to get it? Oh Floyd, don't risk yourself! Well, if you must, you must. Do as he says by: Open door, close door, wait, open door, close door. (Yes, this scene made me cry. If you have a heart at all, you will too!) Sniff...well, so Floyd's death won't be a meaningless sacrifice, do:Get mini card, W, open door, W,S, remove old battery, drop old battery, insert new battery in laser. You're armed and loaded for bear! Now: N,SW,S, slide mini card through slot, type 384, set dial to 1, E,N,N, shoot boulder with laser, (keep shooting until you vaporise it), set dial to 6. *Save Your Game Here! There are two ways to get past the next obstacle, but one of them may not work depending on your game version.* Go south and...AGGGHHH! What's THAT! Oh, that's what it is! Just a ten foot tall hungry amoeba, no problem! OK, shoot it! Doesn't work? Keep doing it. You will notice that the monster is attracted to the heat of the laser. Here is where that version thingy is used. Either: Give laser to monster, or throw laser into void. If one doesn't work, do the other. Not much time left before the mini effect wears off, so go: S, W, and N. Oh No! Trapped in an inaccessable location, and nowhere to go but...THRU THE BIO-LAB WITH ALL THOSE MUTANTS! Well, now is not the time to panic. Do: open desk, wear mask, push red button, open door. That gas isn't going to last long, so move FAST! *Good time to save the game, I might add...* West into the lab, open the door, and west again. Whoa! They're not slowing down! You'll be finishing the game with these things on your heels! Go: West, open door, west, SW, W. Wow! There's your exit! No time to lose, so: South, push button. Whew! That was close! But here you are: the door opens, you go north, and all your questions are answered! Congratulations, Ensign First Class!

NEW YORK (AP) - Carmelo Anthony has scored a Knicks-record 62 points, most at the current Madison Square Garden, in New York's game against the Charlotte Bobcats on Friday night.
Anthony set the records when he banked in a short jumper with 7:24 remaining, giving the Knicks a 109-72 lead. He broke Bernard King's team mark of 60 points and passed Kobe Bryant's building record of 61, set five years ago.
Anthony shot 23 of 35 from the field, including a make when he took off from midcourt at the halftime buzzer, and grabbed 13 rebounds.
He passed Kevin Durant's 54 points for most in the NBA this season.

Steelers sign 6th-round pick Vince WilliamsAP , Associated Press
May. 20, 2013 3:54 PM ET
PITTSBURGH (AP) — The Pittsburgh Steelers have signed sixth-round draft pick Vince Williams to a four-year contract. Terms were not disclosed. Pittsburgh selected Williams with the 206th overall pick, the team's second pick of the sixth round. The 23-year-old Williams recorded 140 tackles with three sacks during his junior and senior seasons at Florida State and was an All-ACC honorable mention selection last fall. He is expected to compete for a backup position behind Lawrence Timmons and Larry Foote. Williams is the second of Pittsburgh's nine draft picks to sign. Fourth-round pick Shamarko Thomas agreed to terms last week. Thomas is expected to be the main backup at safety behind Ryan Clark and Troy Polamalu. The Steelers begin organized team activities on Tuesday. © The Associated Press. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten or redistributed.
