The national holiday road toll stands at 36 on the brink of the new year.
The latest death occurred in Tasmania's St Helens area, after a head-on collision between two vehicles at The Gardens left one person dead and two trapped in their car on Monday, taking the state's toll to 3.
NSW's ninth death occurred with a three-car collision on the Pacific Highway on state's north coast around 10am (AEDT) Monday killing the 23-year-old male driver of a northbound Ford Laser.
A 44-year-old man died in hospital after losing his control of his motorbike and hitting a power pole in the Melbourne suburb of South Yarra just before 11pm (AEDT) Sunday, marking Victoria's eighth holiday road fatality.
Queensland recorded its fifth death after a 23-year-old man was struck by a car on a roadway in the Gold Coast town of Labrador at around 10.30pm (AEST) on Sunday.
A seven-year-old girl became South Australia's fifth holiday road death in a quad bike accident on Thistle Island, off Port Lincoln, just before 6pm (CDT) on Sunday.
Western Australia's sixth fatality came as Toyota Land Cruiser left the Albany Highway south of Perth, crashing into a tree and bursting into flames shortly before 11pm (WST) Saturday, killing its driver.
Boxing Day has brought the toll's bloodiest day so far with seven deaths.
The ACT and Northern Territory remain fatality free.
Victoria Police Assistant Commissioner Andrew Crisp said police were concerned at the loss of lives on the roads and the serious injuries suffered, urging people to take care on the roads while celebrating New Year's Eve.
"I just want to throw out the challenge - don't be the last statistic for the 2012, look after yourself on the roads tonight," Assistant Commissioner Crisp told reporters.
* The national road toll period runs from 0001 December 23, 2012, until 2359 January 3, 2013, local times, in line with the Australia New Zealand Policing Advisory Board.

"The Giver" takes place in a world without memories.
If only audiences could enter that realm for 97 minutes so that the movie wouldn't feel so very familiar in the wake of other young adult adaptations ranging from "The Hunger Games" and "Divergent" to "Ender's Game" and next month's "The Maze Runner."
There are also echoes of everything from "Logan's Run" to "The Lego Movie." And, for a few terrifying moments, there's the overwhelming sense of dread that the whole thing is about to take a Shyamalan-ian turn into a "The Village"-style reveal.
But you can't really fault "The Giver" for feeling too much like other recent YA franchises, considering Lois Lowry's novel debuted in 1993, a decade and a half before all of those except "Ender's Game."
It would be like knocking "American Idol" because you were a fan of "The X Factor."
I mean, we all know there was no such thing as a fan of "The X Factor," but you get the idea.
The Community is a serene, sterile place where race and religion have been abolished through a plan known as The Sameness. If there were differences, we're told, citizens could become envious or angry.
Citizens all ride the same model of bicycle. They live in nearly identical cubist dwellings — not homes, mind you, because the word "home" has a deeper meaning, and The Community is all about using precise language.
"It is impolite to touch citizens outside your family unit," a warning blares when citizens get too close. Another message, "Citizens are reminded that sleep period commences in 15 minutes," is a nightly event.
Citizens receive an injection every morning to block their emotions.
The Community is so bland, all its citizens see the world in black and white.
It's a lot to keep up with, and "The Giver" opens by hurling its rules at you in such a flurry, it feels as though there will be a pop quiz later.
Young Jonas (Brenton Thwaites) is worried he won't fit into any of the occupations doled out during the Ceremony of Advancement, a public right of passage straight out of "Divergent." Or, rather, the one in "Divergent" was straight out of "The Giver."
And, indeed, Jonas is passed over while his best friends Asher (Cameron Monaghan) and Fiona (Odeya Rush) are respectively assigned to be a drone pilot and a nurturer, one of those caring souls, like Jonas' father (Alexander Skarsgard), who looks after The Community's babies from the time they're delivered by birth mothers until they're strong enough to be placed in a family unit.
Because Jonas possesses "all four attributes" — intelligence, integrity, courage and "the capacity to see beyond" — he's chosen as the next Receiver of Memory.
Memories of anything before The Sameness have been erased, and only The Receiver carries them inside him in case he's ever needed to council the Elders. These memories are eventually passed down from one Receiver, who becomes known as The Giver, to the next.
It's here that "The Giver" wins the acting arms race kicked off by "The Hunger Games" with its casting of Donald Sutherland and, later, Philip Seymour Hoffman. "Divergent" countered with Kate Winslet. But "The Giver" stars Jeff Bridges in the title role and Meryl freakin' Streep as the Chief Elder.
Each day, Jonas visits The Giver in his mausoleumlike library at the very edge of The Community, high above the clouds. During each session, using a process not unlike a Vulcan mind meld, Jonas experiences long-forgotten concepts and events. For the first time, he sees animals, dancing and colors. He has his first dream. He even learns about love, an idea so outdated, he's scolded by his mother (Katie Holmes) for using imprecise language.
Even though it's strictly forbidden, Jonas can't keep these revelations to himself. He tries his best to share them with Asher and, especially, Fiona, which puts the domineering Chief Elder on notice.
When Jonas discovers something ghoulish at the heart of The Sameness, he sets out on a dangerous voyage to cross The Boundary of Memory so that all citizens will be able to share in his recollections.
Screenwriters Michael Mitnick and Robert B. Weide have made a few changes to Lowry's novel, most notably making Jonas significantly older. And director Phillip Noyce ("Dead Calm") has delivered a fantastic-looking movie that shifts from stark black and white to brilliant colors to all the grays in between.
Not surprisingly, the acting is first-rate, with the moments between Bridges' Giver and Thwaites' Receiver forming the heart of the movie.
Jonas' climactic race to the border, though, feels rather perfunctory and elicits zero thrills.
"The Giver" has been a labor of love for Bridges, who's been trying to get the movie made for the past 15 years.
Back then, before this current environment in which you can't swing a bookish teenager without hitting the author of a dystopian young-adult thriller, "The Giver" would have been received (sorry) as something far more monumental.
But now, through no fault of its own, it feels like yet another victim of The Sameness.

Ok, I have a new and likely very tricky sig request.
I suggested it to Kaijo, and he's cool with it.
The idea behind the signature request is that it's a spoof off of Phoenix Wright, and the fact that the two of us have been playing Kyubey's Advocate on this board a lot.
In the sig would be Nanoha (representing Kaijo as Kaijo as had the same Nanoha avatar for a long time), Haruhi (representing me as I had a Haruhi avatar for a long time, and currently have a Haruhi sig), and Kyubey.
At the bottom of the sig would be:
Kaijo & Triple R
Legal Defense Team for Kyubey
The sig would have to fuse (photoshop style I guess) these four parts:
Part 1 - Just the Nanoha part, cropped out.
Part 2 - Just the screenshot part, Haruhi would be in the middle of the sig, with Nanoha to her right (her left from the viewer's perspective). The screenshot background would be the main background for the sig.
Part 3 - Kyubey would be cropped out and situated on the other side of Haruhi.
Part 4 - Probably situate this on the upper right-hand corner above Kyubey's head.
And the text I mentioned above would need to be manually added to the bottom of the sig.
Now, I know that this will be very tricky and possibly time-consuming to pull off, and probably take a fair bit of work. So I'll be very thankful to anybody who can do this.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can pull off this massive sig photoshop job.
Edit: Oh, and if the creator of such a sig can find a better way to make it work, by all means, go for it. You don't have to use these four particular images, I just think that it's probably possible for them to work for what I'm thinking of here.

So something like this, except actually done properly?
The Haruhi image background only fills about half the signature. I could just clone parts of it around to make more, but I could do something completely different for not much more effort. Any ideas?
If the background color ends up being light, I can just draw a second exploding outline around the "objection" to contain the blue color.

Otherwise, the cloning approach would probably be best.
Really looking forward to your work here, Kagayaki. ^_^

Suggestions? Feel free to nitpick, it's easy to miss details with this many different elements in the picture.
I ended up using a blurred stock photo of an actual 3D courtroom.
I included the flag b/c I thought it made it more obvious it was a courtroom, but I can remove/change it if you'd like.

I definitely agree with you keeping the flag there. It does make it look a bit more 'legit'.
Looking carefully over it, this is a very tight job, technically speaking. You're clearly a pro at this.
I'm perfectly fine with this. I'll bring it to Kaijo's attention to see if he's cool with it as well. If so, we're good to go! If he wants a change or two, I'll probably go along with it.
Thanks a lot!

"Untouched" is a Slovenian film project, connecting skiing and snowboarding in the backcountry areas, combined with the love of nature and exploration of untouched mountainsides in winter season.
Filmed, edited and produced by LegitFilms.
The presenters of the film are snowboarders Domen Bizjak and Matevž Pristavec (both top competitors in FIS Big air) as well as Matevž Maček (a competitor at freeride competitions FWQ).
New school skiing has been gaining popularity for several years, although Alpine skiing as we know it now actually evolved from freeride. This new style is presented by Bine Žalohar, multiple national champion in all disciplines.
All of them are experienced competitors whom we wish to present in a completely new light, emphasizing mostly their creativity and ability to transmit tricks from the park to natural environment. They are all well aware that they might reach the Slovenian and European competition tops, but they cannot beat nature. It is only possible to get to know it thoroughly, get acquainted with the conditions and then get really close to nature, enjoying everything it offers.
There is also a big list of friends that enjoy the same things and everybody made a great contribution to the film:
Marko Grilc, Luka Jeromel, Stefan Gimpl, Thomas Feurstein, Tadej Valentan, Mitja Kodrič, Žiga Erlač, Žiga Rakovec, Luka Podlogar, Dejan Hodžič, Andraž Šparovec, Matti Imbert, Luka Krajnik, Andrej Marinčič, Uroš Podbevšek and Jan Maček.

Guest post from freelance writer, Gerald Haigh. Gerald writes regularly for the Microsoft blogs.
Towards the end of April I went to Birmingham, to one of the nine Technical Seminars which RM ran in venues around the country this Spring. They were primarily dealing with the technical challenges schools face and how their ICT management product 'Community Connect 4', can help network managers solve them.
RM have been holding these seminars for twenty years now, covering successive generations of RM schools networks. At first they were small affairs, held in informal venues (yes, it's true that some pubs were involved). Now they're major events for over a hundred people at a time, and are often oversubscribed. So, you'd guess, they're probably getting something right.
That's certainly the opinion of the people I met in Birmingham, many of whom attend the seminars regularly.
('They're not just about knowledge, I find them inspiring, 'was the verdict of one network manager who's been attending for ten years.)
Gill Rhodes, who manages the networks for three neighbouring primary schools in Oxfordshire puts it like this.
'In effect they give cut down versions of their courses – the kind of brief overview which is what you often need. They bring you up to date, and add some of the latest tips. I always pick something up – and then there's meeting people of course, and speaking to experts face to face.'
They're also, it must be said, very friendly gatherings. As they've developed over the years, RM organisers and presenters have done a quite remarkable job of hitting and keeping just the right balance of information, informality and expertise.
Unsurprisingly, the people I met were all convinced of the advantage of using RM's Community Connect to manage their networks. Ian Wilson, Assistant Head at Manor High School in Leicester says,
'We know that a plain vanilla Microsoft network will deliver a lot of what's required, but in my view Community Connect adds a set of education-specific tools which allow the network team to concentrate on high value education activities and not so much on lower value network activities.'
The case becomes even clearer when the network team is small and overstretched.
'If you have a small network team, Community Connect makes life much easier,' says David Greengrass, Network Manager at Uppingham Community College.
Gill Rhodes agrees.
'I do a lot of my work remotely when I'm in one school and another has a problem. I couldn't do what I do without Community Connect.'
The partnership with RM is also worth a great deal – everyone spoke well of the quality and promptness of their support.
The optional seminar sessions themselves – nine in all – covered a range of issues. Some, like the one on 'Troubleshooting: Drivers' were no-nonsense technical sessions obviously responding to specific needs. By no means all were like that, though. 'Developing an Effective AV and Classroom Technology Strategy' was very much about senior leaders and network teams picking their way through the forest of available technologies towards a position where effective classroom AV is at the core of teaching and learning. And in 'Negotiation Techniques', Gethin Nichols dealt with what can sometimes be an elephant in the room – the importance of building an effective relationship between the network team and the leaders of learning in a school.
I was particularly interested in two sessions that dealt particularly with CC4. One, 'CC4 Management Tasks', run by Matt Edwards, might have been a bit technical for me in parts, but I thought it a very clear statement of what Community Connect, and particularly CC4, is all about, which is making the network team's life easier.
Matt started by listing eighteen basic network management tasks, common to virtually all schools, ranging from 'checking backups have worked, through 'resetting passwords' and 'fault diagnosing computers' to 'creating and supporting package installation'.
He then set about methodically looking at teach task to see how, with CC4, it can be made easier, or automated, or are effectively administration tasks that someone else could be doing. Talk to any seasoned CC4 enthusiast and they'll soon tell you that the ease with which they can manage routine tasks is in fact one of the main attractions. At BETT this year, I shot a short video clip showing Darren Williams, of the Abbey School, Reading, making exactly that point. In the clip, Darren, who has his own school's Management Console open on his laptop as he speaks, uses the same phrase that was the main theme of Matt's presentation. 'It's made my life much easier'.
(You can see the video on Merlin Johns 'Agent4Change' site at http://www.agent4change.net/people/five-things/1339-gerald-haighs-five-things-to-think-about-1.html
The other CC4 session I was interested in was 'CC4 The Future', also run by Matt Edwards. Here, Matt was keen to emphasise the 'future-proofed' nature of CC4,
'The focus of CC4 is very much in line with what's going on in the industry,' he said. -- To support BYOD (bring your own devices). To support remote access to services. To support use of new software and hardware technologies.'
Part of this approach, he explained, is to offer a subscription model for users, whereby licenses are paid for annually rather than up front.
As well as reducing the up-front expenditure, Community Connect Subscription customers will be entitled to future product enhancements, new server and client operating systems when available, CC4 updates, maintenance fixes and future Community Connect versions. They will also be able to add clients or servers to their network without having to increase their subscription.' (Quite like Microsoft's own subscription licensing models in fact, was the thought that crossed my mind as Matt spoke.)
For me, though, what was most exciting about Matt's look into the immediate future was the prospect of CC4 working with Windows 8. Matt has clearly made himself very familiar with Windows 8 and spent some time showing its features to his audience. Developments are still going on in this area at RM, but there's a clear determination to make sure that all of the innovative features of Windows 8 including the Start Screen, Metro Apps, 'Swipe, Slide and Zoom', are exploited to the full. And just to comfort those in the audience whose brows were furrowing by the second, he said,
'The key to using Windows 8 in my opinion is to get your head around the concept that the Start screen (Metro look) has simply replaced your old fashioned Start button.'
As Matt went on with his description of Windows 8, a question was forming in my mind, and just as I'd decided to tackle him with later, he answered it like this.
'Although I do not currently have a great deal of detail on how the new Start screen will work with CC4 policies and security, I can reveal at least one little Windows 8 CC4 secret - we are currently developing CC4 specific Metro apps that can give you fast, direct access to management areas of your CC4 network.'
In other words, as network manager you'll find specific CC4 functions accessible via individually labelled CC4 apps on the start screen.
He was able to show one example – an app called 'RM Users' which will come up on the Start Screen and allow direct access, without going to the management console, to all CC4 user groups.
As you'd expect, there was quite a buzz about this afterwards, and some network managers were clearly worried about what they saw as a big change from the Windows environments that they'd lived in harmony with for so long.
But thus has it ever been.
I guess the very fact that these questioners take the trouble to attend RM Seminars in order to keep up with trends and provide the best possible service to their learners shows that they'll be quickly won over.
I have no doubt that there'll be much more on Windows 8 in the Autumn Technical Seminars.
Frankly, I can't wait.

The public is invited to schedule, between now and Christmas, guided tours of the home's interior.
"Ohioans and others are encouraged to enjoy the festive sights that adorn the home and learn more about its rich history, Ohio treasures, and the governors and families who have lived there," said Paige Bilotta, director of the Friends of the Governor's Residence.
"The holidays are an especially beautiful time at the Ohio Governor's Residence," she said. "Every year, dozens of volunteers from all over central Ohio gather just before Thanksgiving to ensure that the interior and exterior of this historic home are elegantly decorated for the holiday season. Outside, thousands of lights add sparkle to the trimmings that embellish the home and inside; each room is carefully adorned with greenery, lights and lovely holiday accouterments," Bilotta said.
"It's simply magical the way this home is transformed during the holidays," First Lady Karen Kasich said. "Our volunteers do an outstanding job of embellishing the interior with traditional decorations that highlight the home's Jacobean Revival roots. I look forward to sharing it with others who will enjoy its graceful beauty the way I do."
The Governor's Residence is a three-floor, 25-room home with a full basement. It is approximately 16,000 square feet. It was built in 1925 by Malcolm Jeffrey, whose father, Joseph Jeffrey, founded the Jeffrey Manufacturing Co.
As a state-owned facility, it is not a taxable property and is not assessed a property value by the state.
The Jacobean Revival style home includes slate floors, dark oak paneling, carved stone fireplaces and archways. Inside, a celebration of Ohio's history of art, industry and craftsmanship includes paintings by Ohio artists on loan from museums from around the state, examples of pottery and glass made in Ohio, and unique furniture created by Ohio craftsmen.
The gardens uniquely represent Ohio with areas representing the state's five regions and native plants ranging from the state wildflower, the large flowered trillium, to the prickly pear cactus that grows along the shores of Lake Erie.
The home has been used as the governor's residence since 1957. Nine governors and their families have lived there since then. Gov. James A. Rhodes did not live there during his last two terms in office, 1975-1983, however, he did live there from 1963 until 1971.
The residence is currently used for official dinners, luncheons, meetings and receptions. Though Gov. John Kasich continues to live at his Genoa Township house, he frequently hosts meetings at the residence with companies and individuals. First Lady Karen Kasich's offices are also located at the residence.
Notables among the residence's visitors have been John F. Kennedy and his brother, Ted, in 1959; the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in 1962 and then governor of Texas George W. Bush in 2000.
Kathleen Gilligan Sebelius, the current U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services and former governor of Kansas, was married at the residence in 1974 during her father John Gilligan's term as governor of Ohio.
The last private owners, William W. and Florence Jeffrey Carlile, added a master suite on the second floor. In the process, they enclosed the rear porch creating two more rooms on the first floor. This was the last major addition to the home, however smaller scale preservation and restoration efforts have occurred throughout the years, primarily through privately funded donations to the non-partisan, non-profit 501(c)3 organization, the Friends of the Ohio Governor's Residence and Heritage Garden.
The Friends was established in 2006 in an effort to preserve and promote the residence and Heritage Garden as a living showcase for Ohio's history, artistry, culture, industry, craftsmanship and landscape.
First Lady Karen Kasich has led The Friends' efforts over the past two years to restore the interior to its Jacobean Revival style through the re-introduction of many of the home's original and state-acquired furnishings as well as the enhancement of the home's collections of Ohio craftsmanship. A few examples of her work with The Friends include the installation of replacement lighting in the study featuring a 1920s chandelier crafted by the Cincinnati Artistic Iron Works Co., the refurbishment of a number of hand-carved wooden chairs believed to be original to the home, and the acquisition of several pieces to the collection of Ohio made pottery and glassware. She was also instrumental in the creative design of the holiday decor.
The Ohio Governor's Residence is a state owned and operated facility and state tax dollars cover basic maintenance and building repairs. The Governor's Residence relies heavily on its use of volunteers as well as in-kind donations and public donations to The Friends to keep the grounds and interior properly maintained.
Tours of the first floor of the residence occur on most Tuesdays throughout the year. They provide a first-hand look into the space that Ohio's governor utilizes when meeting with business leaders, overseas dignitaries and state and national policy makers.
Holiday tours must be scheduled in advance and are offered on Tuesdays, after Thanksgiving and before Christmas, at 10:30 a.m., noon and 1:30 p.m. The tours are free, although donations to the Friends of the Governor's Residence will be accepted.
To schedule a tour, visit friendsohio.org or call 614-644-7644.

le Carré, John
le Carré, John lə kärā´ [key], pseud. of David John Moore Cornwell, 1931–, English novelist, b. Poole, Dorset, grad. Oxford, 1956. He was a tutor at Eton College (1956–58), and subsequently worked for the British foreign service in Germany (1961–64). Le Carré's best-known novel is The Spy Who Came In from the Cold (1963, film 1965), a bleak study of cold-war espionage that emphasizes the inhumanity and amorality of international intrigue it introduced the figure of George Smiley, the British agent who is a recurring character in his works and in the two television miniseries (1979, 1982) adapted from them. His other novels include A Call for the Dead (1961), A Small Town in Germany (1968), Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy (1974, film 2011), Smiley's People (1980), The Little Drummer Girl (1983), A Perfect Spy (1986), and The Russia House (1989), the last of his novels to explore cold-war subjects exclusively. Later novels have dealt with international finance ( Single & Single, 1999), the arms trade ( The Night Manager, 1999), the exploitation of the Third World by multinational corporations ( The Constant Gardener, 2001), espionage, terrorism, and the Iraq war ( Absolute Friends, 2003), and the nexus of multinational corporations and government in Africa ( The Mission Song, 2006). In A Most Wanted Man (2008), Le Carré returned to the subject of spying against the background of post-9/11 Germany. In the suspenseful Our Kind of Traitor (2010) he once again treats the theme of British and Russian espionage, in a contemporary setting. In A Delicate Truth (2013), three Britons confront their own government's treachery.

CENTRAL POINT — As the North Medford football team began to cool off, Crater started to heat up.
And when their tilt was all said and done on Friday night, the Comets emerged as one of the hottest squads in the Southwest Conference (Sheldon being that other hot team).
Crater rallied before steamrolling the Black Tornado 46-12 at Dutch Meyer Field in league action.
The Comets (3-2, 3-0 SWC) will next take on the Irish (5-0, 3-0) in Eugene next Friday in a meeting of the last two undefeated programs in the conference.
The upset that began to brew on Friday went cold a half too early for North Medford (1-4, 0-3), which could not keep up in the second half after earning a 12-7 lead at one point.
"They started running out of gas in the first half toward the second quarter and with our conditioning we kept going," said Crater's Blake Fahndrich.
Crater quarterback Chase Mackey and receiver Dakota Massey played key roles in the first half as North put its best foot forward.
That pair, along with their teammates, opened up the floodgates in a lopsided second half that saw the Comets take advantage of just about every opportunity that came their way.
Mackey finished 9-for-12 passing for 216 yards and two touchdowns. He also rushed for 54 yards on 11 carries.
"I think our kids answered the bell pretty well," said Crater head football coach John Beck, who once coached at North Medford. "I think they knew they didn't play very well the first half and they came out and set the tone right away in the second half."
After Evan Hisey put the Black Tornado on the scoreboard first with a 41-yard touchdown run late in the first quarter, the Comets made a crucial push. Kory Bennett returned the kickoff to the Crater 40-yard line, and then Mackey connected with Massey on a 50-yard pass. Derrick Turituri finished off the drive on the first play of the second quarter, rumbling in a 3-yard score.
North regained its lead when Nick Janakes exploded for a 70-yard touchdown haul from Troy Fowler with 10:58 to go in the second period.
A couple of unfruitful drives later, Mackey found Massey for a 41-yard gain that put the Comets at the North 15 with a few minutes left before intermission. On fourth-and-goal, Mackey hit Taran Lewis for an 8-yard TD that gave Crater the lead for good.
"I just wanted to get the job done and do what I had to do," Massey said.
The Comets, who lead 18-12 at halftime after Austin Crider booted in a 43-yard field goal, poured on 28 unanswered points in the second half.
"I thought we played really well, but we have a tendency to have a crucial point where we stop playing," North Medford first-year coach Mike Mitchell said. "That is what we did.
"What I'm trying to do is eliminate excuses. (Crater) was tired, too. We have to learn that that is just another excuse."
A Black Tornado fumble — the first turnover of the contest — in the third quarter led to Carlos Higuera's 5-yard scoring sprint.
On the ensuing North possession, North starting quarterback Fowler was immediately picked off by linebacker Ty Wolf and — on the very next play — Wolf scored on a 22-yard run.
Just like that, Crater led 32-22 with 2:04 remaining in the third.
Crater defensive back Davey McCollum intercepted a Fowler pass with 12 seconds left in the frame that set up Mackey's 53-yard touchdown pass to Fahndrich on the first play of the fourth quarter. Fahndrich dodged multiple defenders in an electric effort after the reception.
Higuera added a 23-yard scoring rush in the fourth.
Wolf ran the ball eight times for 63 yards and Bennett four times four 41 yards for Crater, which outgained North 431-303. Fahndrich came up with two catches for 67 yards and Bennett three receptions for 47 yards.
"With our conditioning our offense seems to keep going and going," Bennett said. "We never seem to get tired. ... We could've gone another two quarters if we wanted to."
Hisey had 92 rushing yards on 17 carries for North.
"Give (North) credit," Beck said. "They had a really good scheme offensively and I was really, really impressed with North Medford. I think we wore them down with our experience."

These are the first live shots of the $160,000 Nissan GT-R SpecV taken as the purple monster reached its short-lived home at a Tokyo dealer.
Nissan calls this color "Ultimate Black Opal" but we're just going to call it purple. Still, the GT-R SpecV is manly enough to pull it off. The SpecV receives firmer suspension, carbon ceramic brakes and lighter wheels over the standard GT-R, while a huge amount of carbon fiber is employed to lower the vehicle's overall weight. Engine upgrades are limited to the mysterious "high gear boost control device" which should temporarily up the boost pressure for what Nissan Japan says is "a more powerful feeling of acceleration."
We're still waiting for official power and weight figures, but these live shots are a good indication that we'll know those details soon. For a bunch more live shots visit [Motor Authority]

Titans look for successful follow-up season
The Toll Gate lacrosse team won a playoff game in its inaugural season in 2005, then saw five consecutive seasons go by without a victory in the postseason.
In 2011, the Titans finally got over the hump, and they did so in a big way.
Toll Gate beat rival Warwick Vets in the semifinals and nearly knocked off unbeaten Smithfield in the Division III title game before eventually falling 6-4.
Now the Titans will see if they can sustain that level of success.
The 2012 season is set to begin on Monday for Division III teams, and Toll Gate will start off the season against Vets.
It'll be a nice early-season measuring stick for a team hoping it can replace some key players from last year's group and show some staying power.
"It's a tough way to start a season, right out of the gate against a cross-town rival," Toll Gate head coach Mike Vadney said. "And we'll see how we do. We've got some big holes that we have to fill this year."
Vadney might be understating just how big, as he will be tasked with finding a way to fill the gap left by the graduation of Zach Furtado, the school's all-time leading scorer.
Furtado, who now plays football at URI, scored 55 goals last season and 40 the year before while playing attack.
"He was definitely one of those kids who comes around very seldom, and as a coach, you wish they would show up more often," Vadney said.
If losing its best scoring-option wasn't enough, Toll Gate also graduated its top defender in Brandon Colombo. Other key players – like midfielders Norm Houle and John Gunter – have also moved on.
That's a lot of production to replace, but Vadney is confident his team can get it done. With 38 players currently in the program, it's just a matter of finding the best options.
"We have depth," Vadney said. "We'll see if we can try to fill those holes with the numbers that we have."
The Titans likely won't have a player this year match Furtado's scoring output, but that doesn't mean the team will struggle to score. The goals will just be a little more spread out.
Back in the mix is last season's second-leading scorer, Casey Correia, and he'll be stepping into a bigger role.
"He was kind of overshadowed last year by Zach Furtado, but he's got a good, strong shot," Vadney said of Correia. "He's got good lacrosse instincts."
Toll Gate should also get consistent scoring from senior Kevin Vittum and sophomore Kyle Ellis, both of whom Vadney expects to blossom a little bit with another year of experience under their belts.
"We're going to have to go more for a team-driven approach, and just have a bunch of guys fill that gap," Vadney said. "I spoke about it at the start of the season. We probably won't have a guy who will score that many goals. But if we have a lot of guys who are scoring 18 or 20 goals, as a team we'll score points."
In the back end, junior Mike Palumbo returns after a solid sophomore campaign, and he will slot into Colombo's old role.
The Titans are also expecting good things from junior Colby Connell, who is in just his second year playing lacrosse.
Vadney is confident that a few others will step up as well.
"Our long sticks, they're looking good this year," Vadney said. "It's nice in the fact that now, as it stands early, it looks like our defense is good."
One big luxury the team does have is its goaltender. Senior Josh Giarrantano is back for another year in net, and he's poised to be one of the top goalies in the division.
"What a pleasure that is. As a defensive-minded coach, that's your cornerstone," Vadney said. "And the cornerstone is strong. We just need to build out from that."
The midfield position is also coming together.
Senior Dan Carrigan is back with the team after not playing during his junior year, and junior Alex Welch is a strong returning presence.
Senior Mitch Howkins, the starting quarterback on Toll Gate's football team, should also be an asset.
"He came back, one more year of experience, and he's looking pretty good," Vadney said of Howkins. "He's one of those kids who can shoot right or left handed."
The challenge for the Titans, however, is not only getting itself ready for the season, but also finding out just how good its competition is.
Division III expanded this season to 10 teams, adding Westerly, Coventry and a Burrillville/North Smithfield co-op team to the fold. The division also broke into two sub-divisions – as opposed to the one, seven-team division that existed last year – and Toll Gate finds itself in D-III-South.
That leaves some uncertainty, but the Titans are still setting their goals high. The first one, though, is to make the playoffs and win another postseason game. Then, they'll go from there.
"Expectations are high, and I can't wait to get that first week done so we can kind of assess and see how much different this division is than it was last year," Vadney said.
Toll Gate's season-opening game against Vets on Monday is on the road at 3:30 p.m. The Titans' first home game will be Wednesday against Narragansett, also at 3:30.

While connecting a laptop to a wireless network at a coffee shop or a friend's house is a fairly simple process, you may run into problems if the network is using different security settings than your computer's operating system. Not all routers provide the same security setting options, and some network card and operating system combinations aren't capable of using the latest and most secure security features. For instance, some Atheros network cards installed on Windows Vista laptops cannot use the "WPA2" security type, and the router of a local network may be configured to use a lower security setting compatible with all laptops.
If you need to connect your Windows 7 enabled computer to a network using different security settings, you will need to manually change your existing settings through the operating system before accessing any websites or checking your email. Your computer's wireless network security settings are accessed by navigating to the "Control Panel" button in the "Start" menu.
Inside the Control Panel menu, locate the icon of a globe sitting next to two computer monitors. Click the adjacent heading labeled "Network and Internet" to access the main Windows 7 networking options.
Click the green "Network and Sharing Center" heading located at the top of the window above the "Home Group" and "Internet Options" headings. Alternatively, you can open the window by right-clicking the network icon in the taskbar at the lower-right corner of your desktop and selecting the "Open Network and Sharing Center" option. The Network and Sharing Center menu shows you which network you are currently connected with and provides options for changing settings and troubleshooting connection problems.
Bring up a list of all available wireless networks within range of your computer by clicking the "Manage Wireless Networks" link at the top-left corner of the window. Locate the name of the specific network you want to connect with that is using a different type of wireless security.
Right-click the network's name and select the "Properties" option to bring up a new window containing the various connection and security features for that network. Access the tab labeled "Security" to see which security and encryption types are currently enabled on your computer.
Open the "Security Type" drop-down menu at the top of the window and select the type of wireless security you want to use with the network, such as "WPA2 Personal" or "WEP." Type the security key password for the network in the text box positioned underneath the "Encryption" menu. Click "OK" to save the security settings and close the window. If you need to change security settings for any other networks within range, repeat the process of right-clicking the network's name, selecting "Properties," and choosing the appropriate security type.
Changing the security type for each individual network keeps the standard settings in place for your home or office networks so you don't have to change the options back and forth anytime you change locations. Keep in mind that while lowering your security settings may give you access to a network that doesn't support the "WPA2" encryption type, your laptop will be more vulnerable while using a lower security setting and anyone within range of the network may potentially be able to access your computer.

Teaching Philosophy
Becoming educated is a complex process, starting from the day we are born. As people with strong visual abilities, observing is a significant part of the way we learn and build knowledge. The goal is to encourage students to make links. The "ah ha" moment comes when the students connect what they observe with what they know about the world, society, themselves - when one aspect informs the other, this is the moment when good and innovative initiatives happen.
Recent Professional Highlights
- Recent design projects completed by Daly & Daly include campaigns for the Nutrition-Eco program for Tufts University, extensive re-branding program for Family Service of Greater Boston, and various communications for the New England School of Art & Design at Suffolk University.

Something Can Be Done About It
Our first error as individuals would be to cut in too high, to try to tell people too much. Those of us who have been here with Dianetics and Scientology a long time have learned a lot more, just as I have, than we knew a long time ago. But here we have this problem of relaying information to a public that doesn't know an answer is possible. —L. Ron Hubbard
What is the one datum every Scientologist can communicate to family, friends and the world—a datum that in the space of minutes can transform apathy to enthusiasm and immobility to action?
What one message is so powerful it will blast open communication channels for the swift dissemination of vital technology?
What single declaration, repeated in a thousand ways, on a million fronts, will lift the eyes and revive the hopes of the billions on Earth?
In a lecture that has attained the status of legendary, Mr. Hubbard provides his immortal answer. As its truth and freedom ring out across the planet, they inspire positive changes in every corner where they are heard. Here, then, is both an eternal L. Ron Hubbard message and a lasting call to action.

He had a pretty rough game but I stick by the logic that you win as a team and you lose a team. De Gea seemed to grow a bit more confident as the game progressed too. Plus, United had chances to win the game too; so unless you're Tim Howard, it's not easy for a keeper to score goals and win the game! Credit to Liverpool for taking their chances and finishing off the game.

How 'bout them Swans?
Albeit Man City should have been aware of what to expect seeing how Swansea handled United, Chelsea, Arsenal and Tottenham at home.
This is a status update.
Yeah, when they played the Gunners they literally played the same exact style of play but did it ten times better. So they know how to beat the really strong teams. Their win over the weekend just solidifies their credentials to stay in the Premier League.
Swansea have good games, but from what I can tell, when they lose, they really freaking lose. Either by score or just playing poorly. I know what you mean about playing the same type of football as Arsenal, but against Stoke that was actually one of the reasons they lost. Their short passes were going nowhere, and they kept on passing straight back to the keeper whenever we so much as crossed the half way line.

Yeah but you can't play Stoke like that. I'd say Stoke and Everton are the two teams you'd have trouble playing like that against because how physical and aggressive they are. But it's amazing when you think of the talent swansea has and they manage to get those wins. When you look at their roster(not including loans) they don't have many players that wow you. Maybe Allen and Britton but that's just their vision and passing ability as well as Sinclair and Dyer because their pace and skill on the ball. I love watching them play. I also enjoy the fact that everyone wrote them off to be relegated but they've shown they're intent to stay up.
This is a status update.
I think Danny Graham, who they bought at the start of this season, deserves some credit aswell. He's been brilliant for them. Anyways, it looks like them and Norwich will both be staying up, but I hope that QPR go down. I really do hate them.
*****Completely inactive, no other accounts*****
Oh i agree, once Graham adapted to the level of play he's been brilliant. I think Norwich and Swansea came up with a big chip on their shoulder and they've played very well. QPR just tried to buy their way into the BPL and just proves that buying without thinking just kinda gets you screwed. Kinda how I think City may implode because they just bought the biggest names.
This is a status update.
Definitely agree on the clashing styles in the BPL and how interesting it is to watch. Arsenal have paid the price many times down the years playing certain teams that have been so physical and good at set pieces (Chelsea, Stoke, Fulham, Bolton).
I strangely remember the first Swansea fixture earlier in the season and it was one of the most boring matches I can remember. So it really was appalling (from an Arsenal view) and impressive (overall) when they played them off the pitch the second time around.
Glad to see any team with Joey Barton fail miserably, ha!
Lets see what happens....
I know it's not BPL but I can't help but bring up the incident with Fabrice Muamba in the FA cup since both Spurs and Wanderers are in the BPL.
I hope he's alright, that looked bad.
This is a status update.

Each strategic project is a set of related user stories – Liz Rice, MindTheProduct
The lively discussion continues around exactly how strategic is Agile if you constantly run short Sprints. Doesn't it take longer to be strategic?
Actually no…The two concepts (Agile & Strategic) are not mutually exclusive! I read a very interesting article this weekend by Liz Rice who outlines exactly HOW to do this. She's keen on being realistic and keeping on track.
Liz advocates using a roadmap and planning to prioritize User Stories needed to build the MVP, keeping in mind that it is best to not bog down in details. Plan for the predictable things and get buy-in from your development teams. We all know priorties can and will change, that's what Agile does so well. Don't sweat the small stuff but remember if you don't consciously integrate critical MVP "must have" features into the Quarterly Plan you'll be forever dealing only with short-term and "urgent" requests.
And that's no way to develop world class software.

Joanna Krupa had a "million dollar" wedding when she married businessman Romain Zago earlier this week.
The Polish-born model-turned-"Real Housewives of Miami" star married Zago, a nightclub impresario, on Thursday. The couple got hitched "in a million dollar princess wedding" at the Park Hyatt Aviara Resort in Carlsbad, her rep told Us Weekly.
"All I will say is that I never had so much fun in my life as lastnite at my wedding w @romain_zago . Couldn't be more perfect!," the newlywed "Dancing With the Stars" alum tweeted Friday.

The bride, 34, who has appeared in GQ, FHM, Maxim and Playboy, reportedly wore a sweetheart cut $30,000 Swarovksi crystal-encrusted Chagoury Couture gown that featured a cascading train of ruffles on her 6-foot-long detachable skit. Her veil was made of silk tulle.
"Everything down to the napkins were custom made for it," a source told the mag.
The wedding finally took place about five years after the couple got engaged -- they briefly called off their nuptials in 2012.
The lavish event is said to have been taped for the third season of her Bravo reality series. Some of Krupa's "Real Housewives" costars were among her 150 guests, People reported.
"We Run the Night" DJ Havana Brown was also in attendance and tweeted to the happy couple.
"@djhavanabrown: Most amazing wedding ceromony!!!! @joannakrupa @romain_zago - congratulations!! x" she tweeted.
Krupa replied with a simple "love u."
And singer Sarah Simmons also performed at the wedding and sent a gushy tweet to the newlyweds.
"Such an honor to have sung for two incredible people on their special day yesterday! A blessing to know em :)!"
Congrats to the newlyweds!

With just four weeks left to see Alia Syed's mesmerizing film installation Eating Grass at LACMA, Unframed offers an excerpt of the experimental film and its poetic script. Eating Grass is constructed around the Muslim tradition of five daily prayers, and this excerpt uses Zohar—mid-afternoon prayer—as its starting point. To learn more about Syed and the making of the film, read this Q&A between the filmmaker and Julie Romain, LACMA's Assistant Curator of South and Southeast Asian Art, published in September 2012. Eating Grass is on view on the fourth floor of the Ahmanson building until July 28, 2013.
Excerpt from Eating Grass (2003) by Alia Syed
The Washing line.
Daughters Narrative
They hadn't always lived alone. The household had shrunk over the years. Each departure leaving the remaining members slightly less secure, but not because of economics. After their father died they got rid of the cook.
Their mother died.
Before the eldest sister married she intimated in hushed tones something about the chauffeur.
The youngest daughter left, they got rid of the caretaker.
And so it was just the two of them, two women alone in a beautiful house enclosed within a ten-foot wall. The women were very fastidious—both about their appearance and the appearance of their house.
[vimeo http://www.vimeo.com/69514098 w=500&h=400]
Sight was regulated, shapes where continually refashioned. The race was on to find the perfect cloth, one that molded perfectly around the body.
A maid came every day to wash their clothes and clean their house.
Houses were getting taller, the population was growing.
The two sisters construed that the neighbors who could now see their washing line would also be able to imagine the shape of their bodies. So they asked the maid, if it would be possible, whilst drying their garments to conceal them by laying them on top of each other.
Eventually permission was granted to leave the country.
The two sisters started to make their preparations; they asked the maid to
Construct a very strong washing line, one that would extend around and upwards towards the top of the house. The maid called all of her daughters to come and help construct the line and wash the clothes.
In the city where they lived, it hadn't rained for five years. On the night that the washing was completed an unexpected downpour hit the city. That night and the following day the whole city rejoiced. All, except for the sisters, who were found by the maid weeks later, just before the beginning of the month of Moharam.

AVrev-CW800E In-Wall Speaker Review
November 1, 2006
There have been many challenges in rebuilding the AVRev.com reference theater (which I have previously written about and archived for Modern Home Theater how-to features, with more details to come). One of the challenges not discussed is what I was going to do with the living room where my former reference system lived. Removing the large equipment rack thankfully created more space that allowed for the sleek installation of a lightly tinted glass wall. Removal of the floor-to-ceiling, bird's-eye maple media storage cabinet that housed my Stewart roll-down screen also opened up some serious space. The design challenge was unique, considering the entryway to the new theater, as well as the stairs leading to the new addition, is exactly where my Wilson WATT Puppy right speaker used to be placed – how could you get great sound in a room or, in this case, a series of rooms, including the living room, dining room and much-used kitchen, without placing more big high-end speakers somewhere and having to create another high-end audio system?
Roll the tape forward to the 2006 Consumer Electronics Show and a visit to Lenbrook (the parent company of NAD Electronics and PSB Speakers) at a private suite at the Hard Rock Hotel. The Lenbrook boys, led by Mark Stone, were showing an in-wall version of their top-of-the-line floor-standing speaker. The unit they demoed is the CW800E In-Wall Speaker and make no mistake – these suckers are for real. Sized at 38.5 inches tall by 14 inches wide and an amazingly shallow 3.75 inches deep, they are designed to be a high-end, audiophile-grade speaker that lives in the drywall, not on the carpet. Compounding my personal need for the speakers was the addition of a complementary in-wall subwoofer called the CWS8, which is a dual eight-inch sub that also has a waif-like depth of less than four inches and houses two eight-inch drivers. I did a demo in the suite with a pretty complex installation for a hotel room and was floored. These were not some disposable in-wall speakers that custom installers just "throw into the wall" to boost their profit margin on a sale. With 30 minutes of listening under my belt, I knew these were speakers for people who sit down and listen. I needed them.
Finishing the Room – Installation
In working with Beverly Hills-based Simply Home Entertainment for the installation, we crafted a plan that would remove the media storage and screen in a soffit on what was once the front wall of the theater, replacing it with a 50-inch Panasonic Plasma HDTV that would be recessed into a newly-framed wall. The idea was to leave enough room for the plasma to breathe, but to flush the TV to the drywall. The PSB set-up in the drywall would be for music only. This decision was made mostly because of the way we use the house. Walking in from a hard day at the office, there was to be a Crestron keypad on the wall which would control the main system's ReQuest F Series multi-zone music server with color touch screen access. Another handheld Crestron remote would be installed to run the music and the TV duties of the system. Combining the music and the TV sound playback was possible, but we found that it was pricey. The sub amp and the amp for the CW800Es would be installed in the room that would ultimately be the gym, which is right on the other side of the wall.
The idea of comparing in-wall speakers to Wilson WATT Puppy version 7 loudspeakers is ludicrous, but the fact is, the PSB CW800Es paired with a CWS8 in-wall subwoofer can hang.
I can't speak about the ease of installation of the speakers, since I wasn't here when Simply Home's Dave, Bruno and Ed were doing the job, but I can say it didn't take them very long. They work with all sorts of in-wall speakers and commented to me later by email, as well as in person, on how thin the PSBs looked, yet how hefty they sounded. This was long before the room was finished. Another aspect of the installation that needs to be mentioned is Lenbrook's spectacular customer service. My painter, who both Tim Duffy at Simply Home Entertainment and I use for all of our projects and homes, accidentally got paint on one of the CW800E's grilles that didn't come off easily. PSB, at no cost to me despite the problem being 100 percent my fault, overnighted me a new grille. When you have a crew on a job and the hours are multiplying, it is the small things like this that really add up. I was impressed with the level of customer attention and responsiveness I got from PSB.
The Music
You must keep the scope of this review in the proper context. This $2,749 (each) in-wall speaker and $799 (each) subwoofer system were given the very difficult challenge of replacing a $250,000 installed theater, led by a pair of Wilson WATT Puppy version 7 speakers powered with Mark Levinson 436 amps. In terms of price and performance, this is an unfair way to judge in-wall speakers, but I am going to do it nevertheless.
After a solid 200 hours of break-in and thankfully restoring a level of calm and lack of construction to my home, I was able to sit down with my new living room speakers and do some listening. At first it was a few half-hour sessions after work and before dinner with a glass of wine, listening to my new classical guitar playlist. Andrés Segovia has a way of taking some of the edge out of an edgy day. A nice glass of Clos Du Val Napa Valley chardonnay ($15 per bottle) serves to take some of the Diet Coke jitters out of the day's events as well. Even at low, conversational levels, I was pulled into the music by the CW800E's ability to resolve details. While my fiancée thinks I am insane (and who would argue with her), you could hear percussive pops on the top of Segovia's guitar that echoed the resonance of the inside of the instrument. The air around the strings sounded like what you might expect from $10,000 per pair audiophile speakers in the room with all of the trimmings upstream.
Progressing into more dynamic music, I cued up some Bob Marley on my Roots Rock and Reggae playlist. "Could You Be Loved," from the Legend album, had a beefy electric bass line with the kind of power and extension that I had never heard from in-wall speakers. Marley's vocals were focused and lively with a bongy raspiness that you should expect to hear on his records, even the more modern recordings. The percussion expanded to widths that were far outside the physical boundaries of the speakers and the backup singers offered smooth layering to the overall mix.
My mellow jazz playlist is, to be polite, a work in progress. Just dumping every John Coltrane tune onto a list makes for some great runs of tunes, shattered by a handful of the most horrible tracks ever. I cued up "Namia" (bonus track version), ripped in a lossless format, from Giant Steps. I would play this track in my living room for anyone in the audio or recording industry, specifically the occasional speaker designers who make their way to my place. Never before in my life have I heard this kind of width and presence from an in-wall speaker. Train was beaming in ways that remind me of what I heard at Sandy Gross' flat in Manhattan on a tricked-out system with his Mythos speakers and obscure tube amps. Please note that the Mythos were not in-wall speakers. The idea of in-wall subwoofers needs to become more popular. With less than four inches of depth, it's shocking to hear how resonant the stand-up bass sounds with this system. Decay times on the cymbals were fully believable and the overall system seemed to perform in harmony.
In the event that you might be preparing to leave to run some errands around the neighborhood or perhaps to kick the hell out of some villains, you never know when you need some proper theme music. For this review, I went with the Academy Award-winning "Theme from Shaft" (Mobile Fidelity/Stax – SACD) by Isaac Hayes on SACD. With one of the coolest, funkiest intros in music history, the melodic elements of this song take on a three-dimensionality that you should only expect from a floor-standing speaker. That is, until now. The wah-wah guitar pops from the soundstage. The horns sound bombastic, yet not bloated. The strings are lively, yet not bright. The cymbals are bright, yet not shrill. Before you walk out the front door to conquer the world of its evils, you might just sit down and jam on a music session if you have the PSB CW800E in-walls. The vocals didn't hold up in terms of balance the way I had heard with the Bob Marley. Perhaps this is a factor in the recording, but the most open the song sounded was in the introduction, with all of the melodic instruments working toward the first verse.
...sounded like what you might expect from $10,000 per pair audiophile speakers in the room with all of the trimmings ...
The Downside
The speakers do it all sonically, except for depth behind the speaker depth. I asked a noted speaker designer if I was asking too much of an in-wall speaker to expect the creation of space behind it, the kind a high-end floor-standing speaker produces. The designer said that he has never heard an in-wall recreate believable depth in the way I was describing, so perhaps I am nitpicking a bit. It is also important to know the advantages you get when you invest in the PSB T8 floor-standing speakers, which are not built into the drywall.
The idea of comparing in-wall speakers to Wilson WATT Puppy version 7 loudspeakers is ludicrous, but the fact is, the PSB CW800Es paired with a CWS8 in-wall subwoofer can hang. While depth and ultimate tightness in the lower registers don't hang to the ultimate standard, I can tell you that I am not even one percent tempted to go back to the way I had it. My room looks better than it ever has and I enjoy more music on my PSBs than I do on my Wilsons. The idea of high-end audio and home theater isn't to geek out on technology so much as it is to make technology work for your life. This PSB system does just that.
I am so fond of my PSB in-wall speaker system that I have thoughts on ways to make them sound and look even better in the future. I plan on adding a very thin fabric wall to the wall where the system is installed. This will allow me to leave breathing room for the plasma, yet hide any sight of the speakers. In a modern, minimalist-designed living room like mine, this will only add to the drama of the music for me, my fiancée and our guests. Additionally, I think I might look to upgrade the amplifier when funds allow it. Take this as the compliment that it is meant to be – you would not be wasting your money putting a Krell, Linn, Classe' or Mark Levinson amplifier on these speakers. In my case, I might be looking at a top-of-the-line NAD power amp for my PSBs. I am not sure how many dealers are showing this speaker system, installed but take it on my word, it is worth signing off on in your bid and getting into your walls. The PSB CW800E In-Wall Loudspeakers, paired with the CWS8 In-Wall Subwoofer, are fantastic.

Two Suspects with Guns Mug Teen Near UC Berkeley
Early Thursday morning a teen was robbed by two men with a gun near the south side of the University of California at Berkeley campus, UC Berkeley police said.
The 19-year-old man was standing at Warring Street and Channing Way around 1:30 a.m. when he was approached by two men, later identified as an armed 21-year-old and a 24-year-old man, police said.
The 21-year-old suspect had a gun and demanded the victim's backpack, cellphone and wallet.
The victim complied and the suspects fled into a car driven by a third suspect, a 22-year-old man, police said.
UC police and Berkeley police officers searched the area for the suspects and the car, and eventually found the trio driving on state Highway 13 in Oakland.
The three men were taken into custody on robbery charges, police said.
A Berkeley police spokeswoman said the names of the three suspects had not yet been released.
The victim was not injured during the robbery, police said.

I am going to write a lot, because I've been posting about this over dozens of boards for a decade now with no clear answers.
I would appreciate it if somebody please reads my entire post and gives me advice because this problem is ruining my marriage, career and academic record.
I just recently got insurance and will go get a blood test taken.
Here is my problem: I am 23, but I am always tired. I have been for the past 10 years at least. At first I didn't think much of it, because I was a straight A student and high school and early college didn't require much thinking to get through.
Later on I started becoming very interested in math and spent hours upon hours reading books non-stop. I did it by binge drinking soda. Caffeine does nothing for me, but sugar, especially fructose - let alone high fructose corn syrup - helped me retain what I read, and keep my focus. I excelled at my hobbies (mathematical ones, like programming).
One day I just decided to quit soda cold turkey along with caffeine. From that day on, I had no soda, coffee, tea, etc. Not on occasion, not ever. After about a week I noticed how exhausted and unable to focus I had become.
These symptoms became increasingly worse.. now here's the thing. I don't know if the symptoms getting worse caused me to avoid leaving my house and sleeping more, or if those things are the reason I became tired. I don't remember which came first.
For the past 3-4 years, i've been way too tired to keep up in school and at my job. I sit in class but I cannot keep up. my attention wanders off every 3-4 seconds (literally) and I cannot sit still. I am constantly yawning and get so bored that I feel like screaming and leaving the class.
Class ends and I remember nothing that the professor has said. This forces me to dissolve sugar under my tongue continously and snort caffeine so I can go through the entire chapter(s) before exams. This is how I maintain my GPA now.....
My job is meaningless and doesn't require a brain. The fact that I am always drowsey makes me VERY irritated. This is ruining my family life..
I tried different diets. I tried veganism, raw veganism, high carb - low carb and high fat - low carb. The one that gives me the most energy is high fat diet, but I cannot maintain that diet with my lifestyle because it requires that I eat no carbs, which is hard when I'm always in and out of a class or my job.
My schedule isn't THAT busy as to make me this tired. I have people my age doing double what I do and they're alwyas energetic.
I've tried altering my bed schedule. Whether I sleep 4 hours or 10 hours, I feel exactly the same when I wake up: Exhausted, unmotivated, irritated and suffering from a general malaise.
I would certainly be labeled as having ADHD (but I don't believe that exists), but my main problem is fatigue, which seems to be causing the irritability and inability to concentrate. I never went to a doctor for this because I don't want stuff permanently on my medical record. I am going to get a blood test and I am going to Doctor Shop for Modafinil. If that doesn't work, I'll ask the doctor for Ritalin and then Methamphetamine.
Speed might be fun and useful, but I'm looking for something more long term. This problem is making me increasingly depressed.
I took shrooms, and I began pondering this problem. The thing about shrooms is that they aren't a stimulant, but they potentiate emotions and feelings. Now, when I was happy or when a good song was playing, I felt extremely energetic and upbeat. When I began thinking of something depressing, I became exhausted.
After this I began wondering if the problem can be psychological. I feel VERY tired in class, but I can concentrate if I really like the topic. I can (and sometimes do) stay up all night reading about something I enjoy. Overall though, I'm just way too foggy-minded, tired and irritated to live my day to day life.
There's really no reason other than genetics (or maybe a virus?) as to WHY I should be tired if I exercise, eat properly, sleep on time, stay away from all chemicals (asparatme, PCP, alcohol, etc, I tried abstaining from ALL), stop masturbating and having sex, etc.. I tried EVERYTHING except going to the doctor!
I did visit the doctor for non-related problems and blood tests always showed that I might be anemic.. hmm! but iron supplements did nothing to help, and I wasn't born anemic.
I keep procrastinating on fixing this problem but now I have insurance and I'm close to getting dropped from the Dean's Honor Roll. Please help!
I would like to know WHAT this problem can be. What specific doctors should I go to?
I am thinking it is one of the following:
* Something mental (depression? too much stress or anxiety?)
* Anemia? I take a multivitamin daily.. and was told once to go to a blood doctor and get checked up for anemia because my RBCs are oval shaped. I wasn't born anemic. Is it something you can 'get' after birth?
* Genes? My mommy is always tired but she's been on meds for psychosis for 20 years. My dad has more energy than anyone I've ever met.
* A virus of some sort? I heard that ~90% of people with chronic fatigue have a virus and there's nothing that can be done about it except to counter the symptoms with psychostimulants.
I don't want to get 'new-edgy' but I find it hard to be in the present moment. I am constantly worried or day dreaming or thinking about something unrelated to where I am Right Now. It feels like my brain is processing useless ****, keeping it at 100% CPU usage all the time. I can "stop" this by focusing on the present moment. I meditate and practice this daily, but later on in the day, as I get increasingly more tired, this task becomes overwhelming, if not impossible.

Prologo is an Italian brand that has some interesting technology for grip and comfort that they are using on their saddles and gloves. Called "CPC" (connect power control), it is a polymer material that they developed using Formula 1 technology. The soft material looks very interesting and is definitely very grippy to the touch. Developed with the Cannondale factory team and Merida Multivan team including world class riders like Marco Fontana and Lado Fumic, it is used on Prologo's road products as well as their mountain bike products.
In this video, Salvatore Truglio from Prologo shows us shows us some of the details of the 2014 X-Zero Saddle and CPC Full Finger mountain bike gloves.
The X-Zero saddle features a flat profile for racing, narrow width in the back, smooth nose for ease of movement and a clip system for integrated bags. The Long Finger CPC gloves provide grip, help riders avoid numbness, increased comfort, anti-vibration and suspension type characteristics.
For further explanation of the CPC construction, check out this video from Prologo:
